The dinner began with the music of silk and bamboo orchestras and the discussion of poems and songs, and ended with jewelry, hats and skirts flying all over the place.
Lin Wanwan and Xiao Mansion's four cousins were still crowded in the two carriages, running over Xingguang all the way home.
The county government office and the Xiao family are in the same neighborhood, which belongs to the wealthy area of Qiantang. Even if there is a curfew at night, it is basically ignored inside the neighborhood.
Especially the people who live in this neighborhood are either rich or noble, and there will be no blind people patrolling here.
As soon as the cousins returned to the Xiao family, they received a warm welcome.
After Lin Wanwan's aunt Yuan heard the movement at the gate, she led Xiao Qingyu and her grandson out to greet them. She was very happy to see her three daughters returning home with glowing faces.
Her legitimate daughter, Xiao Xianghua, who had seldom smiled since her engagement, was full of happiness today. She couldn't help but secretly thought: It seems that she should let Xianghua go out more.
In the daily social gatherings of the women of the Tang Dynasty, married women and young ladies who were waiting to be married were generally the most popular ones. Those ladies who were engaged and ready to be married usually would not go out to socialize easily.
However, Xiao Xianghua has been somewhat depressed for more than half a year since the marriage was arranged, and his mother is also quite worried.
I just talked to my daughter several times, but didn't get any heart-to-heart talk, and asked her maid to get no results. I can only think of it as "premarital phobia".
Mrs. Yuan was very worried that Xiao Xianghua would be displeased by her mother-in-law if she married into the Wang family in Luan County in a dejected manner. For this reason, she even decided to use part of her private dowry property to add another cent to Xiao Xianghua's dowry list.
No one can say that Yuan used her own dowry property to add to her daughter's dowry. This is something that no one can say is wrong. Her daughter-in-law may complain privately, but they have no public opposition.
Xiao Xianghua was really happy tonight, not just because he went out to play and had a few dances, but because he saw with his own eyes that Madam Lu, Mrs. Xiao, who was originally above her head and had a slight disdain for them, accepted her.
Lin Wanwan.
Although Mrs. Xiao still acted like an elder who was willing to teach others, Xiao Xianghua could see that this was already a friendly gesture on her part.
Considering the huge gap between the Wanghai Lin family and the Lanling Xiao family, it is already incredible that Lin Wanwan can be recognized by the direct female family members of the Lanling Xiao family's Qiliang family.
A marriage with the wrong family is always the beginning of misery, but she saw that Lin Wanwan was quite able to deal with the relatives of the Xiao family.
She was really happy for Lin Wanwan. It was not easy to be engaged to the person she liked and to be recognized by the world. Seeing that Lin Wanwan had done what she did not dare to do, she felt happy on her own behalf.
"Cousin Wanwan, I really didn't expect that your majesty would marry you personally. Xiao Ming Mansion is so kind to you."
Xiao Xianghua, who warmly invited Lin Wanwan to stay in his courtyard that night, refused to sleep even late at night. He and Lin Wanwan got together and ordered tea and had a long chat.
Regarding the marriage between Lin Wanwan and Xiao Chong, when Xiao Xianghua heard the news, he knew that it must be Xiao Chong's hard work, otherwise His Majesty, who is busy with everything, would not care about the private affairs of this woman.
"Alas!" Lin Wanwan sighed, "We will not get married."
Xiao Xianghua looked shocked and confused: "???"
Could something happen to Yuci's marriage?
"It's a long story. I am now the Saint of the Heart Lamp of Daxingshan Temple." Lin Wanwan smiled and did not want to talk more about this matter. "Tell me about you. You are getting married soon. How are you feeling?"
The smile on Xiao Xianghua's face faded slightly, and he sighed: "It's just the words of a matchmaker ordered by my parents, so what can I do? I am still capable of being a qualified wife."
Lin Wanwan didn't want the atmosphere to be heavy, so she joked: "Xianghua, you don't sound like a bride who is about to get married, but like you are going to take up a job."
Xiao Xianghua smiled "hee hee" and said in amusement: "Isn't it just to go to work? At first, you should honor your parents for your husband, and at next, you will take care of the family's servants and take care of the family's internal and external relations. It's a perfect person.
Housekeepers still don’t get much wages.”
Lin Wanwan felt a headache when she heard this and said, "It's true!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The two looked at each other and laughed wildly.
The cousins who had not seen each other for a long time did not always focus on the marriage, and later talked about other things.
Xiao Xianghua shared her experience in embroidery and poetry with Lin Wanwan, and Lin Wanwan shared with her what she had seen inside and outside Chang'an City, supplemented by some gossip that each of them had heard, and they had a great time chatting.
When she went back to her room to rest, Lin Wanwan was already very sleepy.
However, she did not lie down directly in the Tang Dynasty. After finally reaching land, she had to quickly return to modern times.
When she was holding a funeral for her domestic servant, Lin Wanwan also returned to modern times. In addition to buying medicine, she also dealt with some official emails in the mailbox and chatted in the company group to show her presence.
But there were so many things going on at the time that she completely forgot to contact Lu Shouyue.
I told Lu Shouyue before that I would return to Yongcheng, but then I remembered that I had to stay in Qiantang for some time, and now I wanted to go back and tell him.
I haven't been to Yucheng for a long time. Now I travel back through time and space, and the time and space gate will be randomly refreshed. Lin Wanwan begged various gods before starting to travel.
Fortunately, this time traveling was the same as the one she traveled through when she first came to Qiantang, and she still appeared in a park bush that was not caught by the camera.
Moreover, it happens that the sun has just set here in modern times, and the sky is half-dark.
Lin Wanwan took out her phone and bowed silently to see if the phone could hold up.
She had bought this mobile phone when she was traveling through time to buy medicine, and she went to the mobile company to refill the phone card.
From a poor family to a wealthy family, Lin Wanwan could not bring electronic products with her, but she had withdrawn tens of thousands in cash.
Once she put it in the canvas bag, she wasn't afraid of anyone grabbing it.
People in the Tang Dynasty didn't know Sou Mei Coin, and as for modern thieves, she felt that it was impossible for them to beat her.
After such a long time, even if the phone is not broken, it has already run out of power and has a black screen. The first priority is to find a store to buy a power bank.
These days power banks are available everywhere, and it is relatively easy to do anything if you have money to open a road.
Soon Lin Wanwan was charged with the help of a helpful convenience store. Fortunately, the Huawei phone actually traveled back and forth twice without breaking.
Lin Wanwan went to the power bank pile in the store, scanned out a power bank, bought it directly, and then bought some random things in the store as a thank you to the store.
As soon as I opened my phone, WeChat lit up with countless red dots.
Lin Wanwan clicked on it and first looked at Lu Shouyue, who had the most news. She found that there was nothing important, mainly daily greetings and expressions of longing, so she sent him a reply: "I'm in Yucheng!"
