The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house

"Otherwise, Ah Chun and his wife, the spendthrift couple, will definitely snatch the betrothal gifts away. They will all be wasted on food and drink, and my uncle and aunt can't compete with them."

"My lady, your plan is still better."

"I can't help it. It's because we ran into those two wicked guys."

"Ma'am, how about...we...ha!"

Acai thought of the virtues of Achun and his wife, and gave Ayue an idea.

"My dear, why don't you go back to your parents' house tomorrow and not mention Aqiu's marriage? Just ask your parents and uncle and aunt to come visit us. Then don't bother with Achun and his wife."

"Hey, you know what, that's a good idea."

"When we get home, we'll talk to them about Aqiu's marriage."

Aqiu held her daughter in her arms and heard the conversation between her cousin and her cousin-in-law. She felt nothing but gratitude in her heart.

After hearing what matchmaker Li said, the Lu family and their two uncles and nephews sat in the main room to discuss the matter.

"Uncle, let's go to the clothing store first."

"What are you doing there?"

"Second Uncle and Aunt Qiu's wedding is so rushed that we don't have enough time to make wedding clothes. We'll just go to the clothing store and buy ready-made ones."

"That would cost a lot of money."

"Uncle, let's go. You don't have to worry about the money."

Uncle Lu knew that he couldn't win over his two nephews, so he followed them to the clothing store.

Everything was decided by the two brothers Dajun. They chose a bright red gown for their second uncle and a wedding dress of the same color for Aunt Qiu.

The two wedding dresses cost ten taels of silver, which made Uncle Lu smack his lips in pain. "If this money was used for daily expenses, it would last three or four years."

The two brothers Dajun didn't respond and bought four more pieces of cloth, two pieces of fine cotton cloth and two pieces of silk.

Uncle Lu was about to nag when he was pulled into the jewelry store by his two nephews.

The uncle and nephew knew nothing about the jewelry worn by women. It was the owner of the silver shop who asked them what they were used for and told them about the market price of betrothal gifts in Ping'an Town. He then helped them choose a pair of silver bracelets, a pair of silver earrings, and two silver hairpins.

Seeing that he had spent more than ten taels of silver, Uncle Lu was so distressed that he almost beat his chest and stamped his feet. This time, no matter what his two nephews said, he ignored them and walked back in silence. The two brothers Dajun had no choice but to follow him home.

As soon as I opened the gate, the furniture that I had customized at the furniture store was ready, and the guy from the furniture store delivered it in a ox cart.

Uncle Lu felt like he was dreaming and saw that his house was filled with brand new furniture.

Dajun then instructed the clerk at the furniture store: "We didn't have a dressing table at home before. When you go back, talk to the craftsman and ask him to make you a dressing table based on the configuration of these furniture."

"Okay." After getting paid and getting a new job, the two young workers happily drove the ox cart back home.

Those who gathered at the gate of the Lu family to watch the excitement, looking at the spacious courtyard of the Lu family and the new furniture that exuded a wooden fragrance, began to work in their hearts again.

Even if the Dajun brothers understood, they didn't care what others thought. They just reminded each other to be more careful.

The next morning, Xiaojun went to the only inn in the town, brought all the guards from Prince Rui's mansion, and accompanied them to Uncle Cai's house to propose marriage.

Seeing these majestic and well-organized guards again, the timid ones dared not move forward, and even those who were quick-witted had to consider their own capabilities.

Those who were not interested had already run to Acai's house, trying to find the best position and waiting for the Lu family to come and offer the betrothal gifts.

They had no other thoughts, they just wanted to see how much betrothal gift the Lu family would give to Sister A Yue.

After all, here, the betrothal gift is the reputation of the woman and her family. The more betrothal gifts the man gives, the more he loves and values ​​the woman.

Although Sister A Yue was a divorced second-married woman, she was lucky enough to be chosen by Uncle Lu.

Some people felt as uncomfortable as if they had swallowed a fly when they thought about Uncle Lu taking a fancy to a divorced woman.

There is a virgin girl in their family, but Uncle Lu doesn't like her. Where can they go to seek justice?

Many people had this idea. Ah Cai was even confused when entertaining his neighbors, "What's going on? It's like everyone owes you money?"

Some people: I would rather you not pay back the money you owe me and give up this marriage.

But they dared not speak out those shameful thoughts.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long before the three uncles and nephews of the Lu family came with a team of guards to propose marriage.

When the Dajun brothers put their second uncle's betrothal gifts on the table, the onlookers were all jealous.

The betrothal gift of eight taels of silver was the price for the best virgin girl in Ping'an Town.

Silver bracelets as wide as horsetail, the latest silver hairpins, silver earrings and enough cloth.

Surprisingly, even the wedding dress was included in the betrothal gifts. Those who were skeptical would be heartbroken.

If these betrothal gifts are prepared, I will get forty taels of silver.

Many people were upset when they thought about the Lu family spending forty taels of silver to marry a divorced woman.

Acai and Ayue saw it and after being surprised, they were happy for their sister.

Aqiu sat in the house and kept hearing his little nephew running around and chattering with his niece about what was happening outside.

"Sister, Uncle Lu also bought Aunt Qiu a wedding dress. The bright red one is so beautiful." When Abao heard people talking outside, he ran over to share it with his sister.

"What else?"

"There are also silver bracelets, silver hairpins, and silver earrings. They are all very beautiful."

"Oh, really?" No girl can resist the passion for jewelry. Aya is fifteen years old this year and has been engaged. The wedding date is set for next spring.

Today, Aya was arranged by her mother to accompany Aunt Qiu so that she could broaden her horizons.

After hearing what her brother said, Aya also wanted to go out and watch the fun. However, her age did not allow her to go out, and her status as a woman who was going to get married next year did not allow her to go out and join in the fun.

There was a lot of noise outside, and from time to time loud voices could be heard inside.

Occasionally there would be one or two sentences that they could still hear clearly.

"That voice belongs to the bamboo craftsman, right? Why are you shouting so loudly? We are not deaf."

"Jealous. I heard from the old lady next to me that his daughter also proposed a few days ago. The man gave her five taels of silver, and she boasted about it for several days."

"Then what's there to brag about?"

"Five taels of silver is not a small amount for an average family." Someone who had a good relationship with A Yue came quietly to talk to A Qiu.

"Then what's wrong with her today? She's so angry, like a firecracker."

"Your Aunt Qiu's betrothal gift today has made her feel uncomfortable. Not only is the betrothal gift a full eight taels of silver, but the wedding dress will also cost no less than eight taels. And then there are the four bolts of cloth, two bolts of silk and two bolts of fine cotton. How much silver do they cost in total? Ten taels of silver is more than enough."
