Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

The house was bustling with activity, and it was no less lively outside.

Ji Chuan went to Shuangxi Town to inspect the shops. When the shopkeepers and managers there learned that the new owner was getting married, they all clamored to come and drink a glass of wedding wine. Ji Chuan couldn't resist their enthusiasm and took them all with him when he returned.

There were so many guests that even though the Ji family had three courtyards, they couldn't accommodate so many people. Ji Chuan thought that the city was not far from Taohua Village, so he arranged for everyone to stay at the Ji residence in the city first.

The managers and shopkeepers took out the gifts they had prepared in advance and asked Ji Chuan to take them home first. They would take some time to prepare and then go to congratulate together tomorrow.

Ji Chuan did not refuse. He immediately had the people load the goods onto the carriage and hurried home.

No one expected that as soon as they got home and unloaded the gifts from the carriage, it was as if a switch was touched, and people came one after another to bring dowry gifts.

"Miss Wang from the Fuxiang Escort Agency is here to bring Miss Ji some makeup! A string of purple jade beads and a jewel-encrusted dagger."

"Young Master Rouge has also come to give Miss Ji some makeup! A pair of hairpins inlaid with kingfisher feathers and red agates, and a necklace inlaid with gold and rubies."

"Miss Chen is here to bring Miss Ji some makeup! A sapphire and emerald peacock tiara, a pair of purple jade hibiscus earrings, and a pair of hibiscus warm jade bracelets."

"Miss Qiu from the Academy is here to add some makeup to Miss Ji! A wolf-hair brush and a Sumei Duan inkstone.

"Miss Qiu Er from the Academy has given Miss Ji some makeup! A complete set of the Twenty-Four Flower God statues and a martial arts secret manual."

……

There were also a few young ladies who I had met at the flower viewing party but were not familiar with, and they also sent some makeup.

The excitement in front soon spread to the backyard. The aunts and uncles no longer had the heart to play mahjong, so they pulled Ji Nuan and their daughters-in-law and daughters out to watch the fun.

Looking at the various gorgeous jewelry placed on the neatly arranged trays on both sides, even the aunt, the most knowledgeable of the three elders, was stunned.

"Oh my goodness! When did the Yinzhu family become friends with such a wealthy family?"

My aunt paused before the tray, her voice trembling with excitement. "Oh my! Look at this crown! Can you wear it outside? It's inlaid with so many treasures! If I wear it outside, I'm afraid it'll attract thieves!"

My uncle's cousin asked Ji Nuan quietly, "Those who came to give me extra dowry are my cousin's friends, right?" She exclaimed exaggeratedly, "This is incredible! A golden phoenix has truly flown out of my second aunt's family!"

Ji Nuan amusedly nudged her with her arm, "Cousin, there's no such thing as a golden phoenix! I'm the golden nugget in my mother's heart!"

"Oh my, how shameless! You're about to become an official's wife, and you don't even seem to be reserved at all!"

Ji Nuan chuckled as she happened to catch a glimpse of the dagger on the tray. Curious, she picked it up and examined it. It looked quite impressive, despite its ornate exterior and incredibly sharp interior.

"Wang Yunshan prepared it, right? She sent me a dagger just for my wedding. What was she thinking?"

Ji Nuan turned around and asked the waiter holding the tray.

The waiter explained with a smile, "The young lady said that if Lord Song bullied you in the future, she, as your good sister, would not dare to offend Lord Song and avenge you, and she would feel really ashamed. Revenge has to be up to Miss Ji herself. This dagger is the weapon that the young lady uses to support you."

Ji Nuan nodded seriously, "Yes. This dagger is a good gift!"

She walked over to the tray brought by the Qiu sisters.

The wolf hair brush and inkstone are quite standard, which is in line with Qiu Shili's style.

On the other tray was a long scroll of painting and a book titled "Martial Arts Secrets."

Ji Nuan unfolded a part of the painting and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Hiss! All kinds of pretty boys!! She likes them!!!

After rolling up the scroll and putting it back, Ji Nuan picked up the martial arts secret book again.

When she opened the first page, her eyes turned yellow!

What the hell? Why are the people inside not wearing any clothes?

It looks like a serious thing, but it contains all kinds of indecent content!

Although Ji Nuan was used to seeing all kinds of bodies in her previous life, in public, she still threw the book back into the tray as quickly as if her hands were burned by fire.

"Haha, your young lady is great!"

Ji Nuan gritted her teeth. Qiu Shizao almost embarrassed her in public.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Seeing her strange expression, her cousin asked with concern.

Ji Nuan blinked and said casually, "Haha, it's nothing. Well, the makeup my sisters gave me was just what I wanted. I was a little touched."

"Ah! Look, everyone, what is that?"

"Look! Someone is flying. Could it be that they have mastered some magical skills?"

At this moment, bursts of exclamations suddenly came from the crowd.

Everyone looked up.

A group of people from the martial arts world with red silk wrapped around their waists flew from the sky. They were divided into two groups, carrying a mahogany box in the middle, looking as spectacular as heavenly soldiers and generals.

"The martial arts leader, Xiaoyao Jian, has specially gifted Miss Ji with 100,000 taels of gold to celebrate her wedding!"

With a loud sound, twenty mahogany boxes fell firmly to the ground.

The relatives and friends of the Ji family and the onlookers all gasped, and the scene suddenly became extremely quiet.

Ji Nuan quickly stepped forward, clasped his fists, and said, "Thank you all, heroes! I have received Xiaoyao Sword's kindness. Please take a seat and have some tea!"

Forty people from the underworld clasped their fists together, and the leader spoke in a resounding voice: "Miss Ji, you are welcome. We will take our leave!"

Then, everyone watched helplessly as these people, who had just landed safely, all jumped away in unison, disappearing into the sky like a gust of wind.

Isn't this a bit too grand?

Before people could recover from their previous shock, a middle-aged man dressed in brocade came over with two waiters holding brocade boxes in their hands.

"Congratulations to Miss Ji on your wedding. The young master of the No. 1 Imperial Merchant family has specially gifted her a villa in the capital and a set of eight-treasure pearl head ornaments." The middle-aged man sang the congratulatory gifts in a loud voice.

Ji Chuan shook off his shock. This time, without his sister coming in person, he gestured for the servants to take the brocade box. He then stepped forward and said with a smile, "Thank you for coming here in person, Steward Jun. You must stay for a drink."

The people around finally reacted and excitedly discussed what had just happened with those around them.

Aunt Niu's eyes widened. "One hundred thousand taels of gold? Just who on earth does the Ji family girl associate with? They're all so generous!"

"I heard the person who just sang the ceremony say that it was the leader of the martial arts world, but why do I remember that the girl who lived in the Ji family some time ago was also called Xiaoyao Jian? Could it be that the leader of the martial arts world is a little girl in her teens?" Aunt Zhou's mind was spinning.

"Tsk tsk tsk, even the floor tiles here might be paved with gold! And with the villa given by the first imperial merchant, the Ji family won't have to worry about where to live when they go to the capital in the future!" Someone sighed with envy.

In the crowd, the village head's aunt looked strange for a moment as she listened to the various words of envy and compliments to Ji Nuan.

Now, before the actual wedding day even arrived, the Ji family was in a state of excitement.
