"Yes, there is also a red dress, which is very beautiful. I guess it is for your engagement. Choose a set of these jewels and wear them on the engagement day."

She didn't want to choose, she wanted to wear them all, one set a day. Love it, love it, the jewelry in the Marquis's Mansion is more exquisite and beautiful than the ones sold in the silver shops in the city. This is a ruby, she picked up a set of headdresses lightly, a headpiece with a gold flower pattern, inlaid with several rubies. It sparkled in the sun.

"Liangliang! Beautiful!"

Lin Fuchen rushed over with his short legs, aiming at the headgear in Lin Xiaomi's hand. She quickly put the things back into the box and closed it.

"Sister, I want it!"

Pointing at the box, he saw it all just now. It was so beautiful.

"No, you can't play with this. I'll go to town some other day and buy you some beads to play with." After saying that, she picked up the box and carried all the beads back to the room.

Lin Fuchen looked at his elder sister's back and felt like crying. Liangliang was the only one, and his sister was reluctant to let him play with her. Sure enough, love will fade, right?

"Mom!" He threw himself into Wang's arms, looking extremely aggrieved.

"This is something your sister will wear when she gets engaged. You can't touch it. I have a few more shiny ones. I'll give them to you to play with later."

She has a pearl necklace given by her husband, which she will use to coax the child first.

"Yeah." The little brat nodded. As long as Liangliang was there, he would be fine. With his father around, he didn't dare to throw a tantrum.

After the butler returned home, he came to the main house to report.

"Have everything been delivered?"

"My Lord, I have sent them all. I have also told Master Lin about the banquet that needs to be held on the day of the engagement. There will be no mistakes on that day."

"I trust you to do the job. On the day of the engagement, you and the prince should go together and keep an eye on him."

"Yes."

Xiao Ran: ... Is he such a tactless person that he would cause trouble on his wedding day? Who is his father looking down on?

"Dad, you better take good care of your cousins. This is the first time you go to someone's house, so don't lose face for our Xiao family."

The Marquis's wife, Ji, smiled and said, "Mother knows that you are the most polite. Ran'er, you are already an adult. After you get engaged, you should think about how you will take on the responsibilities of a husband and maintain your small family when Xiaomi comes into your family in two years."

"That's right. Now you are still supported by me and your mother. Now that your wife has come home, you want us to continue supporting you two?"

Xiao Ran blushed at what his father said, "I have assets and can support my wife, so you don't have to worry about it."

Xiao Zhen snorted coldly. Of course he knew that he had assets. Those were all given to him by his family. What had he ever earned? He just wanted to teach him a lesson and make him take up the responsibilities he should take, instead of just idling around and catching cats and dogs all day.

"You know, soap, oil skin, and wine are all businesses that Xiaomi created, and they are very profitable. What about you? Have you ever earned a penny on your own? Son, don't wait until your wife gets married and you still rely on her for support. I, your father, can't afford to lose face like that."

Xiao Zhen patted his shoulder, gloating a little. The wife is strong and the husband is weak, oh my, how can his son, who is too concerned about his reputation, bear it?

Xiao Ran's face was really colorful and wonderful. Forget about this, his wife is a money-maker. How can he live with this? How can he be a husband in the future?

Ji glared at her husband and looked at her son worriedly. This child looked carefree, but he actually had a strong sense of self-esteem. Over the years, he had not fallen behind in his studies despite being a naughty boy. The words of the Marquis really hit him in the heart.

Xiao Ran insisted: "So what if she is better than me? She is still my wife and has to serve me! She is so powerful, so I can worry less."

Xiao Zhen: ...This shameless guy.

The housekeeper was helpless. If the Marquis and the Prince didn't change their habit of pinching each other when they met, how would the Lady feel when she came into the family in the future?

After returning to his room, Xiao Ran asked someone to show him his private property revenue account book. His wife was too capable, which put a lot of pressure on him!

"My Lord, the prince is looking through the bills."

"Humph, I knew he was just being stubborn."

"Why are you telling him this? Xiaomi is still early." Ji was really depressed. Is there any father like this? Is he so happy when his son is unhappy?

"I'm spurring him on. Once he gets married and finds that he is inferior to his wife in every way, it will be a big blow." He would never admit that he did it on purpose. He just didn't like the boy's arrogance.

"Come on, I don't know you yet!"

When getting engaged, the main venue is the woman’s family.

In addition to renovating the manor, Lin Dashan also bought a lot of red silk and hung it inside and outside the manor.

The head of the village led the farmers to build dozens of sheds for the guests of that day to rest, drink tea and have banquets.

There were not enough tables and chairs for so many people, so he went to the small village and moved many tables, chairs and benches.

He went to the county town and ordered a large number of bowls, chopsticks, and tea cups. He also ordered 30 sets of tables, chairs, and benches.

In the future, when my son-in-law, Xiaomi, comes home, he may be surrounded by people, so it’s always a good idea to prepare more.

Candies, melon seeds and peanuts were packed in sacks, and snacks were ordered from several shops. The seasonings, meat and vegetables needed for the banquet were all ordered, and the wine was also ordered from the capital, where the most expensive daughter's red wine was bought.

Seeing her father's ceremony, Lin Xiaomi felt that she was not engaged but married. No, even weddings were not this grand.

Is her father sure that he is reluctant to let her get married, instead of happily wanting to give her away?
