The Young Master of the Coal Miner
Chapter 33
On the third day, Boss Xue brought the two brothers back to the door with only a small nanmu box.
Seeing that Xue Lin came to the door today with only a small wooden box, the housekeeper's servants of He Mansion were also very curious about this small box, and they all guessed what kind of rare treasure it was inside.
"Here we go again."
Master He nodded to Xue Lin, lowered his head and stroked the tea leaves in the cup with the lid. Today, the servants brewed Jinning specialty Yuhua tea.
Boss Xue respectfully handed the wooden box in his hand to the table in front of Master He.
Master He glanced sideways at the small box of nanmu wood, and then looked at the boy in front of him.
It's been three days in a row, and after being made things difficult by him in every possible way, he is still neither humble nor overbearing, neither hasty nor impatient, this kid's character is indeed good.
"Uncle He, this is a century-old wild ginseng."
Xue Lin stretched out his hand and pushed open the box lid, and at the bottom of the nanmu box lay an arm-thick old ginseng plant, with a thick main root, a dense root system, and complete fibrous roots.
Although Mr. He is not skilled in medicine, he was born in a family of Chinese medicine. He has been influenced by Mr. He since he was a child, so he can naturally recognize the preciousness of this old mountain ginseng.
Nowadays, wild wild ginseng with a century old is considered rare in a time-honored medical center like the He family. It must have taken a lot of effort for this kid to be able to find one in a day.
"Yan'er naturally likes good medicinal materials."
Master He twirled the emerald wrench on his thumb with one hand, and his Adam's apple moved up and down: "But no matter how good these betrothal gifts are, they are foreign things after all. I value your intentions more."
After all, Master He couldn't help sighing, and waved towards Xue Lin.
Just when a few people thought they were about to be driven away again, they heard Master He say: "The He family will accept these things first, please find a time tomorrow to invite the two elders to meet formally."
The three of them were shocked when they heard the words, and looked at each other.Xue Lin hurriedly bowed and said excitedly, "Thank you, Father-in-law."
Master He's brows turned cold, and he snorted coldly: "Don't yell, I didn't directly agree to the marriage proposal. If you want to marry my son, you can't just rely on these foreign things. Our He family also has other requirements."
"As long as it does not violate national justice, morality and ethics, Xue Lin can agree to any request." Boss Xue's voice was firm.
This kid surnamed Xue was quick to say what he deserved, and Mr. He couldn't help but slander him.
"What exactly is the request that the two elders meet tomorrow before they can make it. If your elders don't agree to these requests, then the marriage will be forgotten."
The moment he stepped out of the door of He's house, Boss Xue was still a little dazed, his feet fluttered, and he couldn't believe that Master He actually nodded in agreement.
"Brother, is this marriage settled?" Wang Lao Er was also dubious about this matter, for fear of misunderstood Master He's reply.
"Of course it's settled."
As soon as Wang Li made a sound, he woke Xue Lin from his trance, and he was full of energy immediately, wishing he could drag his grandmother to He's family to propose marriage in the next second.
In his opinion, since Mr. He is willing to nod his head and agree to the meeting of the two elders, the whole marriage is considered settled.
Just when Xue Lin was excited, the old lady Xue, who was far away from Xue's house, was full of sadness. She was leaning on the recliner with one hand on her forehead, and Xiufang beside her was pinching her shoulders.
Xue Lin sent an offer to the He family for three consecutive days, but the betrothal gifts were sent to the He family, but they disappeared in an instant, and the He family still didn't agree.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Xue frowned and couldn't help sighing.
Miss Xiufang saw all of these. Unlike Mrs. Xue's frowning, Xiufang was secretly happy in her heart.
Mr. He first asked for marriage, and then rejected Xue's marriage proposal for several days in succession. It was clear that he would not agree to this marriage.
But on the surface, Xiufang still frowned slightly, pretending to be worried about Cousin Xue's marriage, and never forgot to persuade Mrs. Xue.
"Old lady, don't worry, Mr. He will definitely agree to send so many betrothal gifts from Cousin Xue to the He Mansion."
"The three-day dowry alone is enough for an ordinary family to marry a hundred wives."
These words sounded like telling Mrs. Xue not to worry, but in fact they emphasized that the He family had received a lot of betrothal gifts from the Xue family, but they hung Xue Lin up for so long and refused to nod to agree to the marriage.
Thinking of the warehouse she had evacuated in order to prepare for the marriage gift, the wrinkles between the old lady Xue's brows deepened a little.
Outside the door, a little girl with two braids hurried up to Mrs. Xue.
This girl's name is Qiu Chan, and she was appointed by Xue Lin to serve the old lady Xue. Unfortunately, the old lady is always accompanied by a Xiufang girl, who takes up all the opportunities to show her face in front of the old lady, and finally runs out of autumn. Cicada can only do some ordinary chores in Mrs. Xue's room.
"Qiu Chan, why are you running over in such a panic from outside? Are you afraid of bumping into the old lady?"
Xiufang glanced at this unremarkable little girl, and said in the name of the old lady.
"Old, old lady, Mr. Xue, Mr. Xue..." The girl Qiu Chan ran so fast that she couldn't speak clearly for a while, dancing and gesticulating.
"Stuttering? You can't even speak clearly!" Xiufang held Mrs. Xue's shoulders while looking at Qiu Chan with raised eyebrows.
Qiu Chan was stared at calmly by Xiufang, and suddenly became submissive.
"Okay, okay," the old lady Xue waved at the two of them, the gloom between her brows was still there, and she said dejectedly, "But Xue Lin failed again when he went to He's family to propose marriage?"
Qiu Chan quickly waved her hands in front of her chest and said excitedly, "No, no. Boss Xue has successfully proposed marriage!"
"what!"
"what--"
The old lady Xue stood up from the reclining chair awkwardly, screaming, but she was a little dizzy because she got up too quickly, and she leaned on the back of the chair for a while before she recovered.
Xiufang's scream was so loud that it overwhelmed the old lady Xue. Her complexion turned pale immediately, her eyes fixed on the little girl in front of her, and she also stood up unsteadily.
Qiu Chan was so stared at by the two people, how could she dare to lie, and honestly confessed that Boss Xue was all smiles when he returned home, and even the two brothers around him were beaming, smiling at everyone, isn't it just a success in proposing marriage?
Mrs. Xue clapped her hands happily, and said "good, good", without a trace of sadness in her expression.
Just when Mrs. Xue was happy, Boss Xue also stepped into grandma's room.
"grandmother."
"Hey," the old lady Xue waved her hand joyfully to beckon him over. Seeing the unconcealable smile on her grandson's face, the old lady smiled even more.
Xue Lin walked up to her grandmother, and was held by her arm and patted on the shoulder: "Master He can agree to the marriage proposal?"
Xue Lin nodded: "The He family said that they will invite the two elders to meet tomorrow."
"It should be, it should be."
Mrs. Xue nodded repeatedly and said yes, "How can there be a marriage between a child and a daughter without the consent of the two parents. At that time, a matchmaker will be invited to make up for the procedures of "asking names" and "Najib". "
On the second day, Mrs. Xue got up early, grabbed Qiu Chan and picked out some decent clothes, tidying herself up to a radiant look.
On the contrary, Boss Xue, who was one of the protagonists who proposed marriage, now had a faint black and blue color.
The old lady Xue glanced at the dark circles on her grandson's face, and said jokingly, "Hey, did you steal chickens as a thief last night?"
Boss Xue scratched the back of his head and smiled at his grandmother, looking naive.
Matchmaker Liu never dreamed that the marriage between Xue and He's family would come true by accident.
She originally thought that after seeing Xue Yanluo for a few times, Eldest Young Master He would back off like the Wang family in the south of the city, and the marriage would be over.
But he didn't expect that the young master of the He family would be blinded by lard, and he really fell in love with Xue Yanluo, who was born as a bandit.
Early in the morning, the servants of Xue's mansion knocked on the door of Matchmaker Liu's house, carried a sedan chair, and invited her to Xue's mansion.
Mrs. Xue took Matchmaker Liu's hand enthusiastically, and said with a smile, "It's also thanks to Matchmaker Liu who held the red line with his wonderful hands and chose this marriage for my grandson from the He family."
Matchmaker Liu was a little dazed at first, not sure about the situation, but then she remembered the four big yellow croakers promised by Mrs. Xue, and immediately agreed freely: "Boss Xue and Young Master He are a natural couple, a perfect match, and the little ones are not How much effort do you put into it?"
Matchmaker Liu uttered auspicious words one after another, coaxing old lady Xue into a smile.
As for whether "a couple born in heaven" and "a couple born in heaven" are true, no one knows, but "didn't put much effort into it" is the truth.
A group of Xue's family and a matchmaker Liu arrived at He's house in the south of the city in a carriage.
Today, in order to welcome the Xue family's marriage proposal, the He family specially hung a pair of brand new red lanterns under the lintel, and even the servants of the housekeeper changed into the most formal clothes, which naturally gave the Xue family enough face.
In the main hall, the five members of the He family sat and waited neatly. Even He Wenyang, who was supposed to go back to school today, was asked for a day off by Master He.
How can a child sit still? Eight-year-old He Wenyang swayed dishonestly on the big wooden chair, looking left and right, and soon received the "gentle eye knife" from Mrs. He.
Staring at the dishonest young son on the seat, Mrs. He frowned slightly, and lowered her voice to warn: "Wen Yang, sit down. Don't embarrass your brother."
He Wenyang didn't know why the whole family was sitting in the main hall today, and he didn't know what would happen.
But when the mother said, "If you don't sit down honestly, you will embarrass your brother", the child still imitated the adult and kept his back straight.
Xue Lin helped the old lady Xue to walk at the front of the line. As soon as she stepped over the threshold of the front hall, she raised her head and met He Wenyan's eyes.
Ever since Mrs. He led Young Master He away that day, the two haven't seen each other for three days.
As soon as their eyes met, He Wenyan's ears blushed.
The man raised his eyebrows triumphantly at him, smiled brightly, and said something silently.
Young Master He carefully discerned the shape of Boss Xue's mouth.
What he said was: Ah Yan, I'm here to pick you up.
He Wenyan blushed, and he still remembered Xue Lin's affectionate gaze when the two parted, as if saying: Don't worry, everything is mine.
