After General Han and his wife discussed it further, they both felt that Jiang Shaoyun was a good candidate.
Since the matriarch of the Jiang family was not in the capital, they managed to contact the eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family through various channels.
Zheng Jinyu didn't know much about the Han family, and had only seen Miss Han once from afar.
She mentioned this to her husband, and after discussing it, Shao Ming and his wife split up to inquire about the Han family's situation.
Finally, they called Shao Yun over and asked for his opinion.
"General Han's daughter, Han Mingyue?"
"You two know each other?"
"We don't really know each other, we've raced horses together."
Shao Yun wasn't averse to it; the eldest daughter of the Han family had a good personality.
Both sides were interested and asked Madam Zheng to act as matchmaker, arranging for the two families to meet.
Han Mingyue has only one request: if there are more than two boys in the family in the future, she hopes that one of them will take the surname Han and inherit the Han family genealogy.
Shao Yun and the others dared not make a decision on their own, so they wrote a letter to their parents.
Jiang Shuyun and Mu Yi'an were delighted to receive the letter and learn that Shao Yun's marriage was progressing well.
As for their second son taking the surname Han, they had no objection.
It's still the influence of modern thinking that people feel it doesn't matter what surname a child has.
Jiang Shuyun wrote back to Shao Ming, agreeing to the marriage and asking Shao Ming and his wife to help with the arrangements.
Steward Li personally went to the capital to deliver the silver intended for Shao Yun.
General Han was surprised that the Jiang family agreed. It was truly rare that Mingyue's second son would be surnamed Han.
The Jiang family reached a consensus, and soon, the formalities of the three letters and six rites were almost completed.
Unexpectedly, before Shao Yun got married, Jiang Shuyun and Mu Yi'an were bestowed titles by the Emperor, and their family suddenly became a family with noble titles.
Jiang Shaoming and his wife, following their parents' orders, prepared the house and moved in with their brother.
The main courtyard was left to their parents, while the four brothers and Chuyue each had their own courtyard.
After Shao Yun got married, the couple had a very good relationship. They followed each other's lead, practiced martial arts together, and sparred together.
After his first son was born, Shao Yun went to work at a military camp on the outskirts of Beijing.
When his second son was two years old, he was transferred to the Northwest, and Han Mingyue took the child with her.
Jiang Shaoyun and Han Mingyue had three sons and two daughters, all of whom were born of the principal wife.
Shao Yun followed his father and elder brother's example, and did not take concubines or maids. The couple lived a harmonious life together.
After General Gu retired from the army, Gu Zheng's elder brother was transferred from the Northwest Army to the Northeast Army.
Shao Yun eventually became the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army, where he remained for decades.
The Jiang family, a newly wealthy family in the Dali Dynasty, achieved a good situation through the joint efforts of two generations.
