After dinner, Jin Chu took a small box that he had carefully prepared and went to Mancuixuan where Huanyan lived next door.

Huan Yan, who had just come out of the shower, still had a faint floral scent on her body. Her exposed skin was white, smooth, and as smooth as a baby's, looking extremely attractive.

"It seems that Mother Zhao's skin care recipe is really good. I can't help but love your skin. When your brother sees a bride like this tomorrow, won't he be able to take his eyes off her?" Jin Chu put down the box and teased her with a smile.

Huanyan blushed, stomped her foot at Jinchu, and said angrily, "Sister, you only know how to laugh at people!"

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Jin Chu looked at Huanyan and couldn't help but sigh, "Fate is so naughty, it keeps playing tricks on us. Who could have thought that the girl who used to call me sister would become my sister-in-law tomorrow!"

Huanyan opened her mouth, but in the end no words came out.

Jin Chu pushed the box in front of her and motioned her to open it and take a look.

Huanyan reached out and opened the box. A stack of banknotes lay quietly inside. Although she had not counted them carefully, she knew they were worth a lot of money.

Her color changed slightly, and she blurted out: "Sister, this is too much!"

Jin Chu smiled and said, "Since you call me sister, I should certainly add some money to your dowry. Keep these banknotes. You can use them to buy property or keep them as a dowry. It's up to you. Consider them a wedding gift from your sister."

"But this, this is too much. I can't accept it."

A warm current rose from the bottom of her heart, Huanyan's eyes became moist, and her lips trembled slightly.

Jin Chu has always treated her like her own sister, and she never doubted this.

But this amount of banknotes is more than the total dowry of a middle-class family marrying off their daughter.

All this money was earned bit by bit by my sister through hard work. How could she have the nerve to accept this huge amount of money when she had done nothing but accept it?

"You'll have to accept it, unless you no longer recognize me as your sister!" After saying this, Jin Chu suddenly laughed, "After today, I'm definitely not your sister anymore!"

Huanyan shook her head in panic, then nodded.

Her mind was in a mess, and she didn't know whether to respond or not. She just looked at Jin Chu with tears in her eyes.

"Fortunately, it's still today!"

Jin Chu smiled humorously and pushed the small box back into Huan Yan's hands. "Then you have to listen to me and accept this box. I'm the little god of wealth in the North, and I'm very wealthy. You can keep these without worry!"

Huanyan was about to give in again, but Jinchu said with a stern face, "What? Don't you even listen to your sister? If you keep refusing like this, I'll be really angry!"

"Okay, then I'll accept it. If you need it in the future, just come to me." Huanyan no longer refused and took the box.

Jin Chu nodded and smiled again: "Is that right? My sister is getting married. If I don't give her a gift, people will laugh at me!"

"Sister, introducing me to my third brother is the best gift!" Huanyan thanked sincerely.

"Now that you mention it, it seems so! In that case, I can be considered as the matchmaker between you and your third brother!" Jin Chu, who had realized what was happening, also laughed.

"Huanyan, you won't be seventeen until the end of the month. I originally wanted you to get married later, but despite my careful planning, things changed so hastily that it was impossible to fulfill your wish."

Jin Chu sighed and asked in a low voice, "Now that you and Third Brother are getting married early, have you ever thought about when you'll have children in the future?"

"elder sister?"

Huanyan was caught off guard by Jinchu's questioning, and her face instantly turned red again.

Her eyelashes drooped, and after a moment she looked up at Jin Chu, suppressing her embarrassment and whispering, "Sister, why do you say that? Since we're getting married, it's natural that the sooner we have children, the better, and the more the better."

By the end of his words, his voice had become lower and lower, turning into a murmur, and his head drooped again.

Well, after all, girls of this era naturally have the idea of ​​having many children, grandchildren and wealth in their bones.

Moreover, considering that in this society, girls can get married at the age of fifteen, Huanyan, who is seventeen, is not too old, but she is not too young either. Therefore, she does not think there is anything wrong with getting married and having children.

Jin Chu thought about it and then explained in detail, "I once read a medical book that said a woman's body isn't fully grown until she's eighteen. If she gets pregnant before then, the birth will cause great harm to the mother."

"You're seventeen years old this year. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait a year or two before trying to conceive. This will be better for both your body and the baby in your belly. What do you think?"

Huanyan was slightly stunned, then lowered her head and began to think.

After a moment, she raised her head and asked, "Sister, are you trying to tell me that if I get pregnant now, I'll be prone to complications during childbirth when the time comes?"

"There's a slight possibility, but if you pay attention to your diet during pregnancy, exercise moderately, and don't let the fetus grow too large, it should be fine."

Jin Chu was quite hesitant and did not dare to say anything too absolute. After all, in this dynasty, it was common for girls to give birth successfully at the age of sixteen or seventeen. She couldn't use a few accidents to scare Huanyan.

"Isn't that good? For us women, giving birth is like going through hell alone. My mother was only seventeen when she gave birth to me. Now I am seventeen. Even if I get pregnant right away, I will give birth a year later than my mother. Besides-"

Huanyan paused, her eyes filled with worry. "Besides, Third Brother will be leaving here for the northwest soon. I'm anxious to marry him so that we can have children sooner rather than later. This way, while he's fighting on the front lines, he'll cherish his life more because he's thinking of me!"

Jin Chu's heart was shocked, and he whispered, "Huan Yan."

Huanyan smiled bleakly, "I can't stop him from achieving great things and seeking revenge, but I hope he can live to do so."

"Third brother, your journey to the northwest is uncertain, and filled with dangers and obstacles. It would be best if you could return alive, but if fate does not bless you and you are unable to return, I will soon conceive his child, so that someone can kowtow and burn incense at his grave in the future, and he won't be so lonely and desolate."

"Okay, if that's the case, I won't say much. If you are really pregnant, I will make sure you give birth to the baby safely."

Looking at the gentle yet resolute girl in front of him, Jin Chu's eyes became slightly moist and he held her hands tightly.

"Brother will come back safely, don't worry!"

Huanyan nodded, and the two girls hugged each other again, warming each other.

At the first light of dawn the next day, the palace was already busy. Today was the day when Miss Huanyan was getting married, and the skillful matchmaker was carefully dressing her.

When Jin first arrived, Huanyan, dressed in gorgeous attire, was already sitting quietly beside the bed, with a phoenix crown quietly placed on a table not far away.

Seeing her come in, he smiled slightly, and his gentle face suddenly brightened up, like a bud about to bloom, waiting for the right person to pick it.

With the voice outside the door saying "Young Master Ye is here to marry the bride!", Huanyan was covered with a red veil and helped to the front of the groom.

The calm and reliable man held her hand and led her step by step out of the palace, into the Ye residence, and towards the unknown future.
