The general kneels on the washboard again

Chapter 94: The Mandarin Ducks Are Well Embroidered

The spice business is a big business in Dacheng, and Yue Niang became rich just by relying on these few hills.

If you say Fu Shiqing's vision is really bad, he doesn't want any of the industries in Qingshi Town, but instead wants the Xianglu recipe and the business of the state government.

He doesn't have a spice garden to back him up, so his perfume business probably won't be going smoothly.

It has been some time since Li An came back. He hired a bricklayer to renovate the old house and also renovated Erya's house as well.

After all this time, the house has been completed, but the marriage of the two has been put on hold and has not yet been finalized.

It was Uncle Zhao who was specifically pointed out by Jiang Yunxiao.

"Uncle, the number one scholar was the target of many powerful families' scramble for the position on the day the results were announced."

Erya was also deeply moved after hearing this. She cooked eight more dishes that night and invited Yue Niang and her group to come and eat.

Speaking of Ang Lee, he is also a romantic.

At the completion banquet of Erya's new house, he picked a bunch of chrysanthemums from somewhere, tied them into a bouquet, and slowly walked towards Erya.

"Er Ya, you said you wanted to enjoy chrysanthemums these past two days. I can't bring you all the chrysanthemums from the entire Nanshan Village, but I picked out the most beautiful ones and gave them to you. I hope you and I can always be like these blooming chrysanthemums, snuggling up to each other forever."

When it comes to corny things, Ang Lee is definitely the best. Yue Niang looked at this scene and then at the expressions of the people around her. What's the difference between this and shitting on the street?

But people in love don’t care about other people’s lives. Erya cried loudly and snuggled up to Li An.

Jiang Yunxiao picked up a peanut and stuffed it into his mouth, muttering, "That flower looks familiar."

When she returned home, Yue Niang finally understood why the flower looked so familiar, because it was the flower in her yard.

I sincerely hope that they can live together forever.

Early the next morning, Erya came to Yue Niang with a happy look on her face, "Yue'er, Yue'er." She shouted in the yard.

Yue Niang was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen when she heard Er Ya calling her to come out.

"What's wrong? Sister Erya?"

Erya smiled brightly: "I want to change my name."

"change name?"

Of course, Dacheng can also change his name, but it will cost more money.

Yue Niang couldn't help but wonder, "Did Brother Li An ask you to change it?"

Erya shook her head in denial, "Of course not, but Brother Li An is already the top scholar. My maiden name is Erya, so it doesn't sound right, does it?"

Yue Niang didn't quite understand, but she still supported Erya's decision: "If you want to change, then change it. But have you thought it through?"

Erya's face was as bright as a spring breeze: "Erya, how is it?"

"Er Ya." Yue Niang nodded. It was indeed quite smooth: "Sister Er Ya."

"Hey."

At this time, Li An also came to find Erya: "I knew you were here. The betrothal ceremony will be held tomorrow, and you are still lazy?" His eyes were full of pampering.

Erya was rarely playful: "This is all my parents' business. I have more important things to do now."

Li An looked at Yue Niang inquiringly: "What happened to your sister Erya? What are you two hiding from me again?"

Yue Niang went back to the kitchen: "I don't know, ask her yourself."

Erya told Li An about wanting to change her name. Li An said, "It's just a name, Madam Li. Don't worry too much about it."

Erya snuggled up to Li An and said, "I want to be called Erya. I love reading poetry and I yearn for the stories in poetry. Most importantly, I want to completely break away from my old self."

Erya broke free and said, "Since I met you and Yue Niang, my life has changed dramatically.

After marrying you, I want to be a brand new person."

Erya's words were so logical that Li An stopped trying to stop her. "Okay, I'll go with you."

Erya refused: "No need, Brother Li An, you are now the top scholar and have an official position. You can't show your face like this. Yue Niang can accompany me."

Yue Niang from the kitchen was carrying out dishes and calling into the house, "It's time to eat, everyone."

Ruoyan, Wancheng and Yanqi are not here, so the yard is a bit deserted today.

After dinner, Yue Niang packed up and accompanied Er Ya to change her name.

The autumn weather was crisp and clear, but there was a lot of fluff in the air, and the two of them sneezed all the way.

Changing the name was much simpler than in that era. It was just a matter of filling out a similar form. That was all. It didn't take long for Erya to successfully change her name.

On the way back, Erya walked briskly. Yue Niang rarely saw Erya like this.

"Sister Erya, the betrothal ceremony is tomorrow. Are you nervous?"

Erya turned around and smiled gently. The scene was incredibly beautiful.

"I'm a little conflicted. On the one hand, I really want to be Li Ange's wife, but on the other hand, I don't want to leave my parents."

Erya's happy and gentle face was tinged with a hint of sadness: "After I get married, I will go to Kyoto with Brother Li An. My brothers and sisters are still young, and there will be no one to help them with the work."

Yue Niang could understand: "Sister Erya, think positively. It is a happy thing to be able to marry the person you love."

"Of course I know."

The two of them asked and answered each other and then returned to Nanshan Village. It was already night when they arrived at the village.

From a distance, I could see Li An and Jiang Yunxiao waiting under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village.

Li An stood straight, while Jiang Yunxiao leaned against the old locust tree, holding his head with both hands, looking lazy.

Li An looked at Erya and came over quickly: "Why are you back just now? Ye Mu is already up."

Jiang Yunxiao followed closely and took the fruit that Yue Niang had picked up on the way: "Let's go, let's go back."

When they got to the yard, they saw Erya with a bitter face. Li An was heartbroken: "Don't do this anymore. My heart is breaking."

Erya looked at Li An with tears in her eyes: "I'm worried about my parents. What will happen to them if I leave?"

Li An looked at Erya tenderly: "I was just about to tell you this. I bought a big house in Beijing. We can move your parents-in-law, brothers and sisters over there so that you can see them all the time. What do you think?"

Erya's tears hadn't dried yet, and she asked in a sobbing voice, "Really?"

Li An promised confidently: "Really, this was all planned a long time ago. Please don't cry anymore. I hate to see you cry."

He hugged Erya in his arms.

Yue Niang and Jiang Yunxiao turned their heads tactfully: "Okay, let's go eat some fruit first."

Seeing them like this, Yue Niang was very envious, but she could only give them her best wishes.

After Nacai forgot about it, Erya kept embroidering, and Yueniang occasionally came to her side to watch.

"Sister Erya, your embroidery of mandarin ducks is really beautiful."

Erya smiled and said, "Brother Li An sent some, but I think it's better to embroider it myself."

Such a day was so beautiful that Yue Niang was a little afraid that it was a dream.

The couple's wedding day was set for October 9th, so it wasn't too urgent.

As the wedding day approaches, Nanshan Village is filled with red joy. The most unhappy person is Jiang Yunxiao: "Alas, my mother has sent several letters urging me to return to Lingzhou. Maybe I will have to leave after their wedding banquet is over."

Yue Niang was not so sentimental, perhaps because she was born slow-witted. She only said, "Since your aunt asked you to go back, then go back. It's not like you've disappeared."

Jiang Yunxiao pouted: "Yue Niang, do you not like me anymore?"

Uh, it seems that Yue Niang has never told him that she likes him. This guy is so narcissistic.

Yue Niang still didn't say anything and avoided it.

Jiang Yunxiao continued, "There's also something about you in my mother's letter."

"About me? What?" Yue Niang asked.
