2 Chapter 99 - Negotiate marriage

After the opening of the new shop, in the middle of May, Fu Tian was busy with the rice shop. Fu's rice shop is not well-known in Qingyang. Most people don't know the identity of the owner behind them, so they won't buy it. Fu Tian set his goal The three families of Zhou, Wei and Nie.

Only two seasons of rice are planted here in Qingyang. May is a good time to raise and plant seedlings. With the idea that the fertility and water will not flow to outsiders' fields, Fu Tian distributed most of the new rice seeds that he transported to Zhou Chuanqing.

Wei Yang and the others never paid attention to Zhuangzi's affairs, and they were suddenly called by Fu Tian and still at a loss, "New rice seed, what are you doing with this?"

Fu Tian was too much to explain and was afraid of exposure, so he had to vaguely said: "Inadvertently cultivated rice, which has a higher yield than current rice and is resistant to drought and waterlogging. That's all in total. You divide it for one point, and then let the Zhuangzi plant it. on."

The trio of Rinie Erdong was the most indifferent. Since Fu Tian gave it, it was his heart, and he happily accepted it without asking more, saying that someone from Zhuangzi would come to pick it up another day, and they would definitely let them all plant it.

Zhou Chuanqing has stayed in Sifang Town for the longest time. Fu Tian devoted himself to the fields of Zhuangzi, buying land and digging ditches to improve rice seed. It seems that he attaches great importance to grain production, and he also has a large amount of grain storage. Getting up made him vaguely aware of something, and then he had to think about it, but he didn't understand it for a while.

The next day, people came to the three villagers to bring back the rice seeds sent by Fu Tian. With these three as the beginning, after the harvest of this season, it will be easier to promote it.

When the work on the rice shop was finally finished, all the recreational halls were finally completed.

The originally slightly old mansion was renovated, all the dust and fallen leaves were cleaned up, the faded doorposts were painted with bright vermilion lacquer, the newly built black background gold plaques were hung high above, and the emperor's inscribed four "Kang Le Hou Mansion" The word end is generous.

After the completion of the work, the Ministry of Engineering first asked Fu Tian to check and accept. Fu Tian went around the house and was satisfied.

The Ministry of Industry did its best, Fu Tian asked Daifu to pack the rewards and stuff them to the leader, and politely sent them away.

Next, I have to pick a good day for housewarming.

The housewarming was not too extravagant, Fu Tian originally only invited a few familiar friends to have a gathering. But he deliberately kept a low profile, but he couldn't stop other people from making friends.

On the day of housewarming, the stewards of various houses came to congratulate them with gifts, and people came one after another, and they also felt like a crowd.

Zhou Chuanqing and the others had come early, and they were all drinking in the garden at the moment. Zhou Chuanqing shook his fan and set his eyes on the eaves in the distance. He was rather absent-minded. After being yelled twice by Wei Yang, he recovered.

Wei Yang was dissatisfied, "What are you in a daze?"

Zhou Chuanqing glanced at him and said calmly: "Naturally, I miss the beautiful woman."

There were all guest men in front of him, and it was not convenient for Fu Shuyue to come to the front. At the moment, most of them did not come out in the inner courtyard.

Zhou Chuanqing originally thought that he might meet in the garden, but this Hou Mansion is much larger than the Fu family's house. Let alone the garden, he didn't even know where Fu Shuyue's courtyard was.

Zhou Chuanqing sighed very disappointed.

Wei Yang rubbed his arms exaggeratedly, "Is it great to have a fiancee?"

Zhou Chuanqing shook the fan, his face full of pride, "That's naturally remarkable."

"What's so great?" The people waiting to give gifts left one after another, and Fu Tian had nothing else to do, and came to look for them in the garden.

Nie Erdong Liangliang said: "Someone is suffering from lovesickness."

Fu Tian was stunned, seeing that they were all glancing at Zhou Chuanqing, and he reacted with a smile: "It's not the peony flowers that have bloomed recently. My sister has made a lot of flower cakes. I will try some of you."

Daifu, who was waiting by the side, knew it, and walked quickly to the inner courtyard, and soon returned with a food box.

The two-layer food box contains two plates of pastries, one white and the other pink, all shaped into petals. This looks good enough. I take a piece and eat it. It has a delicate taste and a delicate scent of peony. Even the taste is excellent, not worse than what the chef made.

After Wei Yang finished eating one piece and then sandwiched another piece, his expression was quite angry, "I knew that Sifang Town was such an outstanding person, so I should have stayed in Sifang Town for a while." Maybe he could deceive such an ingenious daughter-in-law to come back.

After all, even Chu Xiangtian and Zhou Chuanqing, two older bachelors with bad stomachs, were going to get married after a trip.

The official Qin on the side glanced at him and suddenly said, "Do you like flower cakes?"

Wei Yang was stuffed with pastries in his mouth, so he vaguely said: "Well, this is delicious." He said quickly and quickly picked a piece for Qin clerk - Zhou Chuanqing didn't say anything about demeanor, and he wished to eat the two dishes. Pulled in front of him.

Several people left after having dinner in the Hou Mansion. Before leaving, Zhou Chuanqing also took a glance towards the inner courtyard, but finally did not see the person he wanted to see.

Seeing his desolate appearance, Wei Yang ridiculed a few words before leaving. When they left, Zhou Chuanqing took out a small cloth bag from his arms and gave it to Fu Tian, ​​"Help me to Shuyue. "

Fu Tian raised an eyebrow and looked at him with a smile.

Zhou Chuanqing was also a little embarrassed to ask the future brother-in-law to help with this kind of thing. She knocked on her hand and changed the topic to avoid embarrassment. "Since I have moved to the Hou Mansion, I will go back to discuss with my parents and choose a date to discuss the wedding date? "

Previously, Fu Tian and the others had been in Qingyang for so long because they had been living in the Palace of King Yu, and the two family members had not been able to meet each other. Now that they have moved into the Hou Palace, Zhou's parents can visit them officially.

The two families met first, and then discussed the wedding date.

Fu Tian would naturally not object. So less than two days after Zhou Chuanqing went back, Zhou's family officially sent a greeting card over, scheduled to visit on May 25th.

Looking at this time, you know Zhou Chuanqing's eagerness. On the twenty-fifth day, the Zhou family's carriage stopped in front of the Kanglehou Mansion without any difference.

Fu Ji had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw people arrived, he hurriedly welcomed them in.

Zhou Chuanqing became more anxious when his parents came back to the Hou Mansion for the first time, walking inside and looking around. Even if they tried to suppress the excitement, their pace was still faster and faster.

Fu Tian and Fu Youqin waited in the main hall. Dai Fu saw people from a distance, so they came in to pass the pass, and the two got up and greeted them.

It was the first time that both parties met, and after a few polite greetings, they took their seats in the main hall.

Zhou's parents secretly looked at their future in-laws.

It is said that Kanglehou's young age can make King Yu die-hearted and win the favor of the Queen Mother. He must be a deep-minded and long-sleeved person who dances well.

But being famous is not as good as meeting. Although Kang Lehou is young, he is indeed as good-looking as the rumors, but he is bright and not demon, and his words and deeds are steady and polite, especially his eyes are clear and upright, and he is different from the lucky ones.

The impression in the rumors has been reversed, and the impression of meeting Zhou's parents has improved a bit.

Fu Youqin sat on the right hand side of Fu Tian. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little rusty, he took the initiative to talk to Zhou Mu and talked about things in Sifang Town. Women are better at communicating than men. After a few conversations, they become familiar with each other, a little rusty. The atmosphere also diffused.

The two talked about Fu Shuyue. Fu Shuyue cannot be present at this time. Zhou Chuanqing has always praised Fu Shuyue that there is nothing in the sky. Zhou's mother has been curious for a long time. This time, she can finally take a look at her future daughter-in-law. Go to the inner courtyard with Fu Youqin.

The marriage date has long been auspicious for husband and wife. There are only two days this year. The two parties only need to discuss and choose one.

Therefore, there is no need to bother too much. The two mothers safely threw the matter to the men, and went to the inner courtyard by themselves.

The three men stared with big eyes.

Father Zhou was not good at words, and did not speak with a sullen face. Zhou Chuanqing was not good at grabbing words because of the presence of Father Zhou. In the end, Fu Tian gave a light cough and asked, "Uncle Zhou can ask someone to forget the lucky day?"

Zhou's father was sitting in distress, his jaw slightly slightly, "One is just recently, June 21, and the other is August 8th. Which one does Leisure Design prefer?"

Fu Tian pondered for a moment and said, "June is too rush. We arrived in Qingyang for the first time, and many things have not been brought over from Nanming County."

Father Zhou felt the same way. Only Zhou Chuanqing felt that June was just right. Seeing that they were all in favor of August, he tried to fight for it, "Now by the waterway, it takes only four or five days to reach Nanming County."

Zhou Chuanqing mentioned this matter in the Zhou family, but Zhou's father and mother did not agree with it. The wedding is a big event. Too rush is easy to go wrong. It must be that the more time the better, but Zhou Chuanqing can't wait and insist on it.

At this time he proposed it again, and Zhou's father squinted at him, and said displeased: "A gentleman should avoid rashness and rashness when dealing with matters. How come he becomes so uncomfortable when it comes to marriage?"

Fu Tian smiled secretly in his heart, and came out to make the rounds, "This marriage letter, as well as the banquet guests, must be arranged in advance. June is really too late to prepare."

Zhou Chuanqing's resistance was ineffective, and his face showed a little frustration. With Zhou's father pressed, he could only agree to it even if he was reluctant.

After choosing the date, the next step is to prepare the marriage certificate.

In Da Chu, after a man and a woman are married, the man needs to write the marriage certificate by hand. The marriage certificate contains the characters of the names of both parties, the official matchmaker who speaks the matchmaker, and the date of the marriage, etc., after confirmation, go to the official media office and stamp the official media seal Send it to the woman's home, when the woman writes her name and presses her fingerprints, the marriage will be officially completed, and then the marriage will be completed by choosing an auspicious day.

The two families in the main hall were discussing the wedding date, and in the inner courtyard, Zhou Mu held Fu Shuyue's hand, how satisfied she was.

Zhou's mother was born in a scholarly family, her personality was gentle and gentle, but she had a very high vision. She had always been praised by Zhou Chuanqing before, only when he was overwhelmed by love and exaggerated, but when he saw people in person, he realized that he was unwilling to live and die. Why did the wife's son suddenly change his temper?
