Fragrance Returned

Under the guidance of Madam Zeng and amid the laughter of the crowd, they removed the veil, drank the wedding wine, ate raw dumplings, and tied their hair together... a series of procedures were completed.

The two newlyweds were embarrassed to meet each other's eyes, but it was obvious that they were affectionate and had a mutual understanding.

They were blessed because they saw all the good in each other before the marriage.

Xun Xiang couldn't take her eyes off the newlyweds. Even if it wasn't funny, she would be so happy that her sixteen glutinous rice teeth were exposed, and her crisp laughter was unusually loud.

Sun Yumu was amused. The little girl was so happy, as if she was the bride...

After completing the procedures, Ding Liren was still sitting next to the bride stupidly. Sun Yumu reminded him with a smile, "Still sitting stupidly, it's time to go out and entertain guests."

Ding Liren was a little overwhelmed and still sat there.

Everyone laughed.

A young wife laughed and said, "Mr. Ding is reluctant to leave the beautiful bride."

Grandma Wang laughed again, "The Ding family has a romantic man, and Grandma Ding is blessed."

Everyone laughed even louder.

Ding Liren stood up, blushed and glanced at Xue Tian, ​​then left the house with Sun Yumu and Xun Yitang.

Gao Dezhu's eyes followed Ding Liren until he disappeared.

Yes, the Ding family is full of romantic people.

The old uncle missed his deceased wife all his life and did not remarry, and Uncle Ding stayed with his wife in the countryside and did not take a concubine. Ding Liren looked at Xue Tian, ​​and his heart and eyes were full of her...

Ding Lichun was the same as them. His ex-fiancee had been a nun for more than a year and had not yet been engaged.

She was born in a noble family, but it was so difficult to enter this family.

If her father's great cause could really be realized, she would still choose him.

Compared with appearance and responsibility, she paid more attention to the latter. I hope that my wish can come true...

Gao Dezhu's eyes did not escape Xun Xiang.

Gao Dezhu is indeed different from others. She values ​​different things from other noble ladies. It's a pity that her father is Prince Duan.

After the wedding banquet, the sky was full of stars. Xun Xiang accompanied Zhang to send the guests away one after another.

Zhang smiled and said, "You've been tired all day, go back to your room and rest."

Xun Xiang came out of the back door of the main courtyard and glanced at Lanxuan on the left. Although she could only see the courtyard wall and the roof, she could see that the lights were as bright as day...

At the beginning of the next day, Xun Xiang got dressed and went to the main courtyard.

No one else had come yet, and only Ding Zhao and his wife were in the room.

Li Maigao's wife was showing Zhang the white silk in her hand, and Xun Xiang went in and quickly put the white silk into the box.

Xun Xiang thought to herself that it was probably the Yuanpa that was stained with something. Some places in ancient times were perverted, and the mother-in-law even wanted to see this.

Not long after, Ding Zhuang and Ding Lichun came over, followed by Dong Ping's family, Ding Chi and his wife, Ding Shan's family, Ding Erfu's family, Ding Sifu and Ding Pandi also came one after another.

Ding Pandi didn't like crowds, so he didn't come yesterday. It was just a year after the Dong family's funeral, and it was not a good occasion to come yesterday.

Mi Hongmian smiled and said, "Youcheng heard that he was going to see the bride, so he started to make a fuss at 12:00."

Dong Youcheng clapped his hands and said, "The bride is beautiful, I want one too."

Everyone laughed.

Ding Zhuang smiled and said, "Good boy, you want to get a wife at such a young age."

Dong Youcheng slid down the chair, climbed onto Xun Xiang's lap and sat down, and said proudly, "I want to get a wife as beautiful as my aunt."

Everyone laughed even louder, especially Ding Zhuang's laughter.

Dong Ping smiled and said, "You wish."

At 12:00, Ding Liren and Xue Tian came to the main courtyard. Xue Tian blushed with shame and lowered her head, too embarrassed to raise it.

Ding Liren took her to serve tea to Ding Zhuang and Ding Zhao and his wife, and then greeted Dong Ping and his wife, Ding Lichun, Ding Erfu and his wife. After sitting down, Xun Xiang and others went to greet them.

Everyone was familiar with them, but there was a change in the title.

Xue Tian sat next to Xun Xiang and whispered, "Second Master and I like that painting very much. We have hung it on the bedroom wall."

Xun Xiang smiled and squeezed her hand.

Dong looked at them and smiled, "When my mother was looking for a husband for me, she not only looked at the man's parents-in-law, but also my sister-in-law.

"They said that you can't marry into a family with a cunning sister-in-law. If you marry into a family, you will have to endure the sister-in-law's anger. My sister-in-law is lucky. This family has kind parents-in-law and a good sister-in-law."

Lü added, "Yes. My parents chose my second master because he has no sister. "

Everyone laughed. They thought to themselves that no matter how powerful the sister-in-law is, she wouldn't dare to bully you.

After two meals at Ding's house, everyone played until the afternoon before going home.

The weather was getting warmer, the willow branches were turning green, and it was February in a blink of an eye.

At the hour of Yin on the ninth day of the first lunar month, Xun Xiang got up and went to the small kitchen in the backyard to personally prepare the college entrance examination meal for Xun Yibo.

Mammy Dai and several maids were already waiting there.

She made ginseng soup, cream rolls, meat buns, fried dough sticks, boiled eggs, etc. for breakfast. She also made eight-treasure porridge, roast chicken, bread, and The braised beef I made yesterday was brought to the cell to eat.

A little of the best ginseng was added to the ginseng soup, so that my brother could take the exam with the most full energy.

At the end of the Yin hour, the maid carried a few food boxes, and Xun Xiang went to Xun Yi Bo's yard.

The cold stars were shining, and the night wind in early spring was still very cool.

Xun Yi Bo had just gotten up, wearing a blue brocade robe, and was very energetic.

Breakfast was served on the table, and Xun Xiang asked him to drink a bowl of ginseng soup first, and then took out a fried dough stick and two boiled eggs.

"Brother, eat this, it's a good omen."

In the previous life, it meant 100 points. This was the breakfast that Xun Xiang's grandmother prepared for the college entrance examination.

Xun Yi Bo smiled, took it and ate it, and ate some other things until his stomach was full.

The exam was physically demanding, and he had to solve the food problems for the next few days.

Xunxiang checked his test basket again. It was actually a three-layer wooden box. There are not only pens, inks, and inkstones, but also daily necessities such as food, small stoves, curtains, and quilts.

To stay in the room for a few days, many things need to be prepared.

Xun Xiang sent Xun Yibo to Jiaomen, where Xun Qianli and Xun Yiqing were already waiting.

They sent Xun Yibo to Gongyuan.

Several people got on the carriage and disappeared into the boundless ink.

Nine days passed by in a flash, and Xun Yibo finished his examination.

After hearing him answer the question silently, Mr. Guozijian, Ancestor Xun, and Xun Qianli all said that he did very well in the exam. As expected, he passed the exam and ranked relatively high.

The results will be released in mid-March and the palace examination will be held in mid-April.

Both his ancestors and Xun Qianli suggested that he go out for a tour and return home before the end of March.

Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles.

Due to family reasons, Xun Yibo has never traveled far since he was a child.

Before, he was worried about his mother and family, but now that his sister is watching, Xun Yibo also wants to go out for a walk.

He wants to go to Jiaodong, where there is not only the Confucius Temple that he has longed for, but also Mount Tai, the sea, etc. Because he took the waterway, the big ship went directly to Linshui County. He also wanted to visit the place where his sister grew up.

My sister said that Beiquan Village and Fushan are so beautiful.

Xun Qianli wrote a letter to the local officials in Jiaodong, and Sun Houye wrote a letter to the land and sea soldiers there.

Princess Dongyang Mansion sent twenty guards, followed by five captains.

The emperor took both public and private matters into consideration and sent Ding Lichun to Jiaozhou to work with him.
