Chapter 108: Asking for a Date
After the betrothal gift is paid, the next step is to ask for a date, which is to choose an auspicious date for the marriage.
Zhu Huaizhen thought that this request for a date should be very easy, and he could just choose a day with his eyes closed.
Then, Chen Mingan would definitely not bother her anymore.
To this end, she also sent Tu Mi Cai to buy tea and snacks to celebrate.
Tsk tsk, the Duke Dingguo’s Mansion is so stingy, the monthly allowance they give is not even enough for her reward.
Alas, ever since she used the immortality storehouse, she couldn't stop spending money, and she was indeed a bit extravagant. However, she was in a bad mood every day, and if she didn't buy something, she would feel even worse.
So she fell into confusion and shame.
So Tu Mi asked Lou Li to comfort her.
Lou Li's answer was that it was better to owe him a favor than to owe a dead person a favor. After all, Zhu Huaizhen had given Lou Li stunning beauty, so he should be compensated.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaizhen felt that this made sense and felt at ease.
The teas include rose-braised melon seed tea, salted bamboo shoots, sesame and osmanthus tea, melon seed, chestnut, salted bamboo shoots, sesame and rose tea, salted cherry tea, osmanthus and green bean tea, walnut and pine nut tea, candied golden orange tea, osmanthus, sesame and smoked bamboo shoots tea, coriander and sesame tea, etc., mainly focusing on curiosity.
The pastries include honey-floating pomelo cake, spring water cake, ice and snow cold yuanzi, Bijian bean cake, Qiongye cake, butter abalone, big resistant dates, Jiandao sugar lychee, lotus cake, rice moon cake and so on, which are very delicious.
It’s a pity that I can’t call a troupe to sing a song for me.
"Your Highness, if you want to listen to a play, please ask Lou Li at night." Tu Mi joked.
Damn it, why bother asking him for help? He will only create problems for himself.
Zhu Huaizhen shook his head vigorously and gritted his teeth.
The night before, Zhu Huaizhen didn't say she wanted to listen to an opera, but Lou Li insisted on singing a part.
Orioles chirp at dawn in the jade trees of Jinling, flowers bloom early in the Qinhuai waterside pavilions. Who knew the ice would melt so easily? I watched him build his red mansion, I watched him entertain guests, and I watched his mansion collapse. Here, amidst the mossy, blue tiles, I once slept in a dreamlike state; I've witnessed fifty years of rise and fall. No one in Wuyi Lane is surnamed Wang, ghosts cry at Mochou Lake, and owls roost on Phoenix Terrace. Dreams of the ruined mountains are the most real, the old land hard to lose. I don't believe this map is changing manuscripts. I'll compose a lament for Jiangnan, and sing it until I grow old.
After singing, Lou Li asked Zhu Huaizhen to rub his shoulders and back.
If Zhu Huaizhen refused, Lou Li would help her get out of the water.
Damn it, she was so ashamed that she wanted to crawl into the ground.
"Zhu Huaizhen, you are living a very comfortable life." Chen Ming'an put his hands behind his back and his face was gloomy.
"Chen Mingan, it would be more comfortable if you didn't come." Zhu Huaizhen rolled his eyes.
"Prince Chen, have you set a date for the invitation? This matter is not appropriate. Let my prince participate." Tu Mi was really talking about things that were not related to the topic. Zhu Huai was so angry that he took a bite of the honey-floating crispy pear flower. It was sweet and sour and delicious, and his anger subsided a little.
"It's settled. It's difficult to set a date. You have to consult fortune-telling, avoid taboos, and the date must be easy to remember. By the way, Lian'er wants to avoid our birthdays so that there will be more festive days in the future. Let me come and ask you." Chen Ming'an turned his face away uncomfortably.
To be honest, Chen Mingan didn't remember Zhu Huaizhen's birthday.
Of course, he remembered Zhao Lian'er's birthday because Zhao Lian'er would remind him again and again.
"Chen Ming'an, why don't you go ask Ali? He must know. I only told him once." Zhu Huaizhen was so unhappy that he wanted Chen Ming'an to be unhappy too, but he still smiled brightly.
"Zhu Huaizhen, remember, your identity will always be my concubine!" Chen Mingan turned away.
