Song Sanniang's Journey to Wealth

After reading his brother's letter, Qin Haodong felt a little dazed. Why did he feel like his brother was still following him, still the little boy dancing happily with the little wooden sword? Suddenly, he said he wanted to get married.

Although he had already prepared some money for his younger brother to get married, he was still a little confused when he said he wanted to get married.

Thinking that he was going to marry that little girl named Si Niang, he smiled. No wonder, this girl had been with his brother when they were children, and they were inseparable.

Before opening a shop in the city, the two of them only had the opportunity to play together occasionally. Since opening a shop in the city, the two of them have been together every day, playing together, eating together, studying together, and getting into trouble together.

Sometimes when he returned to his room at night, the children would lie down on one bed after playing tired. The girl, Si Niang, would carelessly put her legs on her brother and let him use his pillow. The girl's saliva would flow onto his pillow. Wu Niang was much more polite and would quietly lie down beside her sister and fall asleep.

After the store closed, Aunt Song and Jixiang would come to his room and carry Si Niang and the other two back to their room to sleep. This happened day after day until they moved out.

In fact, the younger brother was not used to it after they moved away. Sometimes he would call for Si Niang before sleeping, or when he brought her something fun or delicious, he would subconsciously want to call Si Niang over. But he soon realized that he no longer lived in the store.

Qin Haodong still had a headache. He didn't know what Uncle Song and the others thought about Si Niang's marriage. Did they want to find her a powerful man or a good man?

He counted the money he had on hand and found that if his younger brother married Si Niang, it would be like marrying into the family. After all, he knew how many houses and lands Jixiang had bought for his two younger sisters.

He thought he should first ask Uncle Song and Jixiang for their opinions. He planned to go to Uncle Song's house in person to talk to him, and write a letter to Jixiang. After sending the letter, he received a reply within a few days.

"I accept this brother-in-law. If you can't handle my parents, you can ask me for help."

With Jixiang's words, Qin Haodong felt relieved. He looked at his schedule and squeezed out time to return to Tian Mi Mi.

Seeing him come back, Song Lao Er and Song Ersao were very happy and pulled him aside to ask him all kinds of questions. However, when Song Si Niang saw Qin Haodong coming back, she thought of her and Qin Haoxi's affairs, so she hid in her room.

Qin Haoxi exchanged pleasantries with Song Laoer and his wife for a while before he said seriously, "Uncle Song, I have something important to discuss with you. Can we find a quiet place to sit down and discuss it?"

Seeing how serious he was, Mr. and Mrs. Song Laoer went out with him and found a private room in a teahouse to sit down and see what he had to say.

After sitting down, Qin Haodong said straight to the point, "Uncle Song, do you have any arrangements for Si Niang's marriage? If not, can you consider Haoxi? He grew up with Si Niang since childhood. The boy has no future now, but I believe he will achieve something in the future.

As a brother, I will also ensure that he and Si Niang will have no worries about food and clothing after they get married, and I also guarantee that Haoxi will treat Si Niang well. "

Song Laoer and his wife did not expect that Qin Haodong came to discuss Si Niang's marriage with them. Song Laoer was still thinking, but Song Ersao was smiling.

"We watched Haoxi grow up, so he is naturally a good kid. We don't have any objections. But we still need to ask Si Niang about the marriage. If she agrees, we will agree too."

Song Lao Er kept silent. He had just married off one daughter, and now someone was eyeing his second daughter. He was unhappy and he also disliked Qin Haodong.

Qin Haodong couldn't help feeling a little uneasy when he saw that Uncle Song didn't say anything. If Uncle Song didn't nod, then this matter would be a little difficult to handle. He had no choice but to test, "Uncle Song, what do you think?"

Song Lao Er looked at his wife's happy face, but he couldn't say anything to spoil her mood, so he just said hurriedly, "Jixiang just got married, I can't bear to see Si Niang get married so soon."

Qin Haodong felt relieved when he heard this. He smiled and said, "Don't worry about this, Uncle Song. Since you can't bear to leave Si Niang, then you can wait until Haoxi passes the exam to become a scholar before you get married. You can settle the marriage first."

Song Lao Er asked, "If Haoxi never passes the exam to become a scholar, won't Si Niang have to wait for him forever and never have to get married?"

Qin Haodong smiled apologetically and said, "Although that brat Haoxi doesn't have much ability, he has studied for so many years. He should be able to pass the exam to become a scholar. You can give him a deadline, and he must pass it before the deadline you give him."

Song Ersao kicked Song Laoer under the table, then said to Qin Haodong with a smile, "Okay, don't listen to your uncle Song's angry words. Wait for me to ask Si Niang. If she is willing, you can find an auspicious day to propose marriage."

The two sides agreed, and Song Ersao went back to ask Si Niang,

"What do you think of your brother Haoxi? Are you willing to marry him?" Song Ersao looked at Si Niang without blinking.

Si Niang was embarrassed and lowered her head in silence. Seeing that she had nothing else to ask, Song Ersao made the decision, "Okay, then wait for him to come and propose marriage."

What happened next was a natural progression. Qin Haodong found Qin Haoxi and told him that the Song family had agreed to the marriage. After the two discussed it, they went to the Song family's house and proposed marriage in a solemn and etiquette manner.

After the marriage was arranged, Qin Haoxi went back to see Si Niang twice. Si Niang had the shyness of a girl waiting to be married.

"You're back."

Qin Haoxi looked outside, closed Si Niang's door, and hugged her, "Did you miss you? Did you miss me?"

Si Niang twisted a few times in his arms, "Don't do this, or others will know."

Qin Haoxi smiled softly above her head, "We are an engaged couple, so it's perfectly legitimate to hug each other, what's wrong with that?"

He hugged me tighter and said, "I've wanted to do this for a long time. I missed you so much. Do you miss me?"

Si Niang buried her head in his chest, smelling the faint scent of soapberry, and said vaguely, "Hmm."

Although it was just a "hmm", Qin Haoxi's heart was filled with joy. He was not satisfied with just a hug, so he lowered his head and lifted Si Niang's chin.

Si Niang's face was red, and her eyes were a little evasive. She obviously didn't dare to look him in the eye, but she mustered up the courage to look him in the eye.

Qin Haoxi instinctively touched her lips. When their lips touched, they only had each other in their eyes.

Qin Haoxi couldn't stand Si Niang's wet eyes looking at him, "Close your eyes."

Si Niang closed her eyes obediently. She could not see anything with her eyes. She felt the two lips gently touching hers and began to kiss her.

Gradually, her lips were wrapped in moisture and warmth, and her hands couldn't help but tightly hug the tall and thin man in front of her.

Qin Haoxi only tasted it briefly, fearing that he would scare her by being too reckless, so he hugged her and stroked her back.

"I will be busy with the imperial examinations next, and strive to pass the examination and marry you as soon as possible. I will be busier in the future, and may not come to see you as often as before.

Don't let your imagination run wild. Wait for me."

Si Niang nodded obediently. What she was thinking was, if you don’t come to find me, I can go to find you. She felt sweet in her heart when she thought of this.

The friendship between childhood playmates turns into an inseparable love as time goes by, entangled with each other, bound to each other, and never separated.

A year later, Qin Haoxi passed the imperial examination and was awarded the title of Scholar. He put on his scholar's uniform and stood outside Si Niang's boudoir surrounded by his best men.

"Fourth Lady, I am here to marry you. I will never let you down in the future."
