A worker with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan travels back in time to ancient times and becomes a pri

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was the day of Wei Jing and Lu Qing'er's engagement. They had agreed in advance that the two families would have a meal together to seal the marriage. As the future son-in-law of Prime Minister Wei, Chu Xingluo had to come.

In addition to Lu Qing'er, her parents and brother, General Lu's two concubines and children were also there. This was reasonable. What Xia Taoyuan found unreasonable was that Zhao and Wei Qing did not show up at the engagement banquet held at the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The two families chatted happily during the banquet. General Lu Ting raised his glass to Wei Mingcheng and laughed heartily, "Brother Mingcheng and I have known each other since childhood. We are as close as brothers. Later, we served in the same court together. Now we are even relatives. Come on, come on, Brother Mingcheng, I toast you!"

Wei Mingcheng was also happy. He drank several cups with Lu Ting and said, "After today, I will find someone to choose an auspicious day for Jinghe and Qing'er to get married as soon as possible."

Xia Taoyuan squeezed Lu Qing'er's hand and whispered, "I'll have to call you sister-in-law from now on."

"You bad girl, you're making fun of me. When will you and Prince Jing get married?" As he said that, he pinched Xia Taoyuan's face.

Madam Lu heard this and asked Madam Wei with a smile: "Yes, Zhiying and Prince Jing are already engaged, so the wedding date should be soon, right?"

Madam Wei smiled and said, "We have already exchanged engagement letters. We are just waiting for the Ministry of Rites to choose an auspicious date. Originally, Ying'er wanted to wait until Jinghe got married before marrying Prince Jing, but after discussing with the Prime Minister, we decided to choose an auspicious date for Jinghe and Qing'er as soon as possible. It doesn't matter who gets married first or later, it's both a happy event."

After noon, General Lu and his wives returned home. Xia Taoyuan wanted to go play with Lu Qing'er, but Chu Xingluo stopped her, "Do you think your brother would be willing if you go play with Miss Lu?"

Xia Taoyuan agreed. Her brother often went out to take care of business and didn't spend much time with Qing'er, so she should give them some time alone.

She looked at Chu Xingluo and said, "Then what should we do?"

Chu Xingluo pulled her and walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion: "I'll take you to a place."

Long Yan Qingyun drove a carriage and took the two of them to a manor outside the city, which was shaded by green trees and had a quiet environment.

Xia Taoyuan looked around and thought this was a really nice place.

"Do you like it?" Chu Xingluo came to her and asked softly.

"Me? I like it. This place is great, with beautiful scenery and quietness." Xia Taoyuan said with a smile.

"Let's go in and take a look." Chu Xingluo took Xia Taoyuan's hand and walked outside the manor. Xia Taoyuan then discovered that there were four big characters "Tao Tao Tao Yuan" written on the plaque at the gate of the manor. She looked at Chu Xingluo in surprise with her mouth wide open.

Chu Xingluo couldn't help laughing at her funny look and said, "In a few days, I'll plant peach trees all around this courtyard, and then you can eat as much as you want."

Xia Taoyuan was very moved. In her life, no one except her grandparents cared so much about what she said and took everything she said to heart. She hugged Chu Xingluo, trying not to let her tears fall, and hummed with some sobs: "You are so good to me, I will be lost."

Chu Xingluo stroked her hair and said softly, "Isn't that better? This way you won't leave me."

The two men walked into the yard and looked around the house. The windows were bright and the desks were clean, and it was spotlessly tidy.

"Can we come here more often in the future?" Xia Taoyuan asked, raising his head.

"Okay." Chu Xingluo said, "You can come anytime you want."

Xia Taoyuan couldn't help but feel happy and began to look forward to her future life, such as raising fish in the lake, raising a few chickens, and planting flowers and vegetables in the open space. She also wanted to raise a puppy and take it to play on the grass. It was comfortable just thinking about it. Isn't this the retirement life she had imagined before?

"What are you thinking about?" Chu Xingluo asked in a gentle voice.

Xia Taoyuan shook his head and said with a grin, "Think about what we will be like in the future."

Chu Xingluo pulled her into his arms and whispered, "No matter what happens in the future, promise me that you will never leave me."

Xia Taoyuan put her arms around his waist and said with a silly smile, "Unless you drive me away, I will stick with you forever!"

Chu Xingluo lowered his head and kissed Xia Taoyuan on the lips, kissing her seriously and affectionately.

Xia Taoyuan felt like she couldn't breathe, so she gently pushed Chu Xingluo, and Chu Xingluo reluctantly let her go.

"Shall we stay here tonight?" Chu Xingluo looked at Xia Taoyuan, his eyes full of expectation. Xia Taoyuan wanted to, but she couldn't explain to Madam Wei if she didn't come home that night.

"I want to, too, but if my mother knew, she wouldn't let me go out anymore." Xia Taoyuan said in embarrassment, "Just bear with it for a while, okay?"

She reached out and touched Chu Xingluo's face, and then asked, "Hasn't the Ministry of Rites chosen an auspicious day yet?"

"I've chosen, I've chosen three." Although Chu Xingluo was a little disappointed, he also knew that he was too anxious.

"Mother mentioned it at my brother's engagement party today. Why didn't you tell me?" Xia Taoyuan asked.

"I wanted to be the first to tell you, but there were so many people there that I didn't say anything."

"Then what date is it set for?" Xia Taoyuan was looking forward to it.

"One is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, one is September 10, and the other is next year. Let's choose the Mid-Autumn Festival, where we can have a happy reunion, a good day and good meaning." In fact, the biggest reason is that this day is the closest.

Xia Taoyuan certainly understood Chu Xingluo's thoughts, but she also felt that the Mid-Autumn Festival was the best day. She smiled calmly and said, "If you say Mid-Autumn Festival, then it's Mid-Autumn Festival."

Chu Xingluo also smiled. Although there were still more than three months left, there was still hope.

The two walked out of the manor, and it was almost dusk. The sunset in the sky reflected on the lake was like an oil painting. Xia Taoyuan lamented that such a beautiful scenery could not be recorded.

The two walked along the lake, and Xia Taoyuan asked, "Can lotus roots be grown in this lake?"

"Yes, Qingyun scattered some lotus seeds a few days ago. Lotus seeds have already grown inside and will emerge from the water in a few days." Chu Xingluo said.

"That's great! Are there fish in the lake? We can go fishing in the future." Xia Taoyuan couldn't hide his excitement.

Seeing her so happy, Chu Xingluo felt extremely satisfied and held her hand tightly.
