Dong Nuan was not in a hurry, and said in a slow tone: "It's a small matter, don't be anxious."
The shop is still open during the day. If there is nothing serious, Dong Nuan doesn't want to close the door and lose customers.
Although Dong Sanchun was puzzled, Dong Nuan said it was not a big deal, so he didn't take it to heart.
After a busy day, when he returned home, Dong Nuan found an opportunity to talk to Dong Sanchun and Dong Wu about recognizing their relatives.
Recognition is a two-way street.
Not only did Dong Nuan want to recognize the Cao family as godson relatives, but Cao Xinyao, the daughter of the prefect, also wanted to recognize Dong Sanchun and Dong Wu as god relatives.
After hearing this, Mrs. Dong Wu was stunned.
On the contrary, Dong Sanchun took a breath of cold air, and then asked softly: "Nuanya, what do you think?"
I know that I have asked myself about my feelings and opinions first, and everyone has made great progress.
Dong Nuan nodded: "I don't care, but for our family, it would actually be pretty good if we recognized our godfather."
It's really good. Isn't it good to be able to become relatives with the prefect's family?
That's pretty good!
Even if Dong Yao becomes successful in the future, it will be too difficult for a poor student to get ahead. I don’t know how many years it will take, and maybe if I work hard for most of my life, I will not be as good as a prefect.
So, you can become relatives with the prefect’s family!
Dong Sanchun felt that his steps were a little unsteady.
"Nuan Ya thinks it's good, so of course your aunt and I have no objection. Just like this, will it wrong the eldest daughter of the prefect's family?" Dong Sanchun was really afraid that the prefect's daughter would dislike their family.
Dong Nuan was indifferent and said, "No, if you dislike it, I won't mention it."
Although there are some calculations and considerations in this, there is also a lot of sincerity.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about warmth in winter.
Because of this incident, Dong Sanchun and Dong Wu didn't sleep well all night, and when they woke up the next morning, they were still very excited.
The three remaining children in the family were confused and looked at these two people with blank expressions.
The matter of recognizing relatives was a big deal, and I didn't tell them in winter or spring until it was completely confirmed.
Moreover, if you tell them, at most they think it's great, and they don't know much about the rest, so it's useless to tell them.
After talking to her parents, Dong Nuan still needs to talk to Hanjiang Tower.
However, the visiting time has not come yet, and the winter warmth has passed, so I can't say much, just a few simple words.
However, you still have to tell him the matter.
Hanjianglou was quite surprised by this. After thinking about the reputation of Magistrate Cao and the Cao family's status in the capital, Hanjianglou nodded: "Nuanbao thinks it's good, let's admit it. If
If you feel bad, don’t force yourself.”
Hanjianglou can't guarantee that he will be successful in this life and can make Dongnuan live a good life.
However, in his heart, there is still a way out.
At worst, he will go to the battlefield again. He has fought in battles for most of his life, and he is very experienced in this matter.
In a few years, he will be able to climb up from the bottom.
"I think it's pretty good, it's a win-win situation." Dong Nuan was very open-minded and was not unhappy when she mentioned this matter.
Hanjianglou knew that the little girl would not be tactful when talking to him. If she said it was good, that meant it was really good, so he could rest assured.
After the marriage acknowledgment has been decided, the next step is to look at the date and prepare for a series of procedures.
If you recognize a relative in the farmyard, you may just have a cup of tea and that's it.
However, it is not that simple to recognize an adopted daughter in the prefect's family.
In addition to checking the date, serving tea, and introducing her to relatives at home, she also has to hold a banquet to introduce Dong Nuan to these people in her circle.
The day was chosen on the sixth day of August, which was a pretty good day.
Hanjiang Tower is busy with studies, so I can't take leave from my wife and go home, but I can't go to the scene to see it.
However, they had prepared it early in winter, spring and spring. Dong Yao arranged for the master to live in the private school and paid money to stay at his house for a few days. There was no problem.
Just take the winter peaches and winter jujubes directly, put them on the table and play with them for two days.
The two little girls were too embarrassed to play. When they had free time, they studied various patterns, painted, or started embroidering directly.
After Dong Nuan was ready, he took Dong Sanchun and his wife directly to Cao Mansion in Fucheng.
The Cao Mansion also hung up red lanterns today, and everything in the house was filled with joy.
If she wasn't afraid of getting too many reds, she would have thought that when the girl in the family got married, Mrs. Cao really wanted to get more reds.
They also treated Dong Sanchun and Dong Wu with courtesy and did not look down upon them in the slightest.
After the two families exchanged greetings, the auspicious day and time had arrived, and it was time to go through the process of serving tea and acknowledging relatives.
The process is not troublesome, and there aren’t too many people. After all, it’s not time to actually introduce me to other family members.
The prefect, Lord Cao, invited a close friend to come over to witness. Besides him, there were Lord Cao and his wife, Dong Sanchun and his wife, Dong Nuan and Cao Xinyao.
The third girl, the concubine whom Cao Xinyao mentioned before, did not show up.
I don't know if it's such a formal occasion and no common people are allowed to show up, or there are some other reasons.
Dong Nuan didn't ask much. After becoming a family, there were some things that she should know, so she would naturally tell her.
In the process of recognizing relatives, Dong Nuan first recognizes Mr. Cao’s family as his relatives.
Dong Nuan obediently served tea and called her adoptive father and adoptive mother.
After hearing this, Mrs. Cao was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.
Mrs. Cao's character is a little cold and hard to approach at first sight, but once you get to know her well or have a good relationship with her, she is actually very easy to get along with, but she seems to have a cold temper.
However, her position also determines that she cannot smile every day when she sees everyone.
Mr. Cao is already in his late twenties, he has a habitual straight face, and his whole body exudes the majesty and momentum of an official.
Tea was served, the words changed, and Dong Nuan also received a marriage gift from her adoptive father and mother. They were all wrapped in red cloth, but nothing could be seen.
After Dong Nuan's side is over, it's Cao Xinyao's turn.
The little girl knelt down to receive the gift generously, and did not show any contempt because of Dong Sanchun and Dong Wu's origins.
Cao Xinyao quickly changed her tune after serving tea. In fact, she was still a little nervous in winter and spring, and Wu was a little more cautious in winter, but in the end she was still stable.
The prepared gifts were wrapped early in the morning and can be taken out now.
After happily acknowledging their marriage, Mrs. Cao quickly pulled Dong Nuan over and said with a smile, "Good boy, we will be a family from now on."
After the family recognition was over, everyone who had become a family sat together and talked first. Doctor Cao did not bother with official duties and politely sent away his friends who had witnessed it. When he came back, he stayed with Dong Sanchun to talk.
At the beginning, Dong Sanchun was extremely nervous, and sometimes she could not control her stuttering when speaking.
But soon, he couldn't care anymore.
Because he could answer everything Master Cao asked.
Various people's livelihood issues, how many stones can be harvested from the field, what is planted, how is it growing, and whether the farm tools are sufficient...
Although he has not farmed in the past year or so in winter, spring, and spring, he had been farming for almost forty years before that, so how could he not do it?
If he knows how to do it, if Mr. Cao asks, he can explain it.
After going back and forth, he actually started to answer questions fluently and was no longer nervous at all.
