This branch of the Qin family is the only one left. Qin Yanjun’s father is the third eldest son, known as the Third Master Qin. He is a concubine, and there are two brothers above him. However, Uncle Qin offended someone, and all his ancestral property was ruined. The Second Master Qin His abilities were mediocre, and without his brother's protection, his family fortune was quickly squandered.
On the other hand, Third Master Qin escaped the disaster because he was a concubine and had a cautious temperament.
But when the Qin family suffered, he was not well off. He had been keeping a low profile since Qin Yanjun was born. When the new emperor ascended the throne and his rival family lost power, he had a little chance to breathe.
Qin Yanjun also had an older brother, Qin Junhao, who was more capable than Mr. Qin. He owned many shops and his business was booming. In just a few years, the Qin family had a place in the capital.
The Qin family fell in love with Shen Dalang not only because of his appearance and character, but also because of the Shen family and the eldest princess behind him. Otherwise, he would not be worthy of marrying Qin Yanjun just because he was a small businessman.
But because of the relationship between Shen Yanqing and Jiang Miao, the marriage became a high-profile affair.
"Our Yanjun's looks and talents are among the best in the capital, otherwise the Shen family wouldn't have made up their mind after just one meeting."
Qin's mother has great confidence in her daughter. If the Qin family hadn't been ruined, her family's Yanjun would have been married to an official family.
"Well, I have met Shen Annian several times. He is mature and steady, and has a handsome appearance. He is barely worthy of Yan Jun."
Qin Junhao said with a straight face that he was very reluctant to let go of his sister's marriage, but the Shen family was a good family for the Qin family, and he would not delay his sister's marriage.
"That's fine. Although the Shen family is a farmer, but because of Princess Rongning's relationship, no one in the capital looks down upon them. Moreover, the men of the Shen family don't take concubines, so we, Yanjun, will not be wronged if we marry one."
Qin's mother hated her concubine deeply. The eldest daughter suffered from being a concubine and became a widow at a young age. She has been alone for so many years. Without her natal family, homeless women are the most pitiable. .
Qin Yanjun's pretty face turned red when she heard this. She was thinking about Shen Dalang, and her heart was filled with sweetness.
That idiot promised her that he would treat her well all his life.
"Mom, Yanjun is engaged, do you want to call eldest sister back?"
They haven't moved together for so many years. At that time, the eldest family fell into decline and the eldest sister reconciled with her husband's family. The Qin family did not stand up for her and only gave her some silver coins to keep her company. The relationship between the two families gradually became distant.
Qin Junhao and his eldest sister grew up together, and their relationship is quite deep. If she is willing to come back, it would be a good thing for the two families to move back together.
"Let's wait until Yanjun and the husband of the Shen family get married. Hui Xin hasn't come back for so many years, so I'm afraid she still hasn't let go."
"Well, Yuanyuan will be ten years old next year. She even called me uncle when we met her a few years ago, but now she probably doesn't recognize her anymore."
Qin Junhao sighed, if the big house hadn't been ruined, Qin Huixin wouldn't have had her place taken over by a concubine, and she would have left home without even being able to see her daughter.
The engagement day was coming soon. The Shen family paid great attention to it and sent several gifts. Not only did they include exquisite snacks and fresh fruits, Shen Dalang also used his own money to buy Qin Yanjun jewelry, hair, and ginger. As an elder, Miao Miao also added some good stuff.
The Qin family is a high-ranking family, but the Shen family attaches so much importance to it. Mr. Qin and his mother feel very comfortable, and they feel more and more that they have the vision to choose such a good husband for their daughter.
Jiang Miao met Qin Yanjun for the first time. The young lady had just grown hair and looked like a flower. She was delicate and tender, and her clear eyes made people fond of her.
She looked at them, and Qin Yanjun also secretly glanced at her. Young ladies like beautiful things, especially Jiang Miao's stunning appearance, so Qin Yanjun liked her even more.
"Yanjun has met the princess."
"We are now a family, so there is no need for such false etiquette."
Jiang Miao helped her up, and Qin Yanjun smiled shyly at her, "Well, the princess is so good-looking. Yanjun just thought he saw a fairy..."
Her eyes are round and bright, and she stares at them when she praises them, which means she is telling the truth.
Jiang Miao was so happy with the praise that she patted her hand.
"Yanjun is good-looking too."
Otherwise, Shen Dalang wouldn't have lost his soul after seeing him once.
And she always felt that Qin Yanjun looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.
The engagement banquet was about to begin, and Jiang Miao was called to the main table. She didn't remember who the familiarity was from, so she simply put it down for the time being.
There are so many similar people in the world, or it may not be that she has seen them accidentally.
The engagement banquet is a meal for two families. Wang and Mr. Shen booked a private room in a restaurant, and the two rooms were combined into one, which could accommodate so many people.
The Shen family is relatively honest and easy to get along with. Third Master Qin is smooth and can talk, and Mother Qin is not that difficult to deal with. The meal was a feast for both the guests and the host, and the two protagonists exchanged glances with each other, each with a red face.
Everyone was satisfied with the marriage, and Mrs. Zhang also took the opportunity to set a date for the wedding.
"I checked the almanac. March 16th next year will be a good day. The weather will be warm by then. Yanjun's wedding dress can be made lightweight and look good."
Young ladies love to look beautiful, so if you get married in winter and wear thick clothes that won't even show off your figure, it's better to get married in spring. When spring comes, the flowers will bloom, so you don't have to suffer.
It was just a bit too fast, marrying off her daughter in less than half a year, and Qin's mother was a little reluctant to give up.
There was some hesitation on her face, thinking of delaying it for two months, but before she could say anything, someone pinched her arm. She turned around and saw Qin Yanjun's pleading eyes.
Well, the mother is reluctant to give up, but the daughter hates to get married.
Qin's mother glared at her, "It's not a good idea for a girl to stay. Staying and staying will lead to hatred. The Shen family is indeed a good family, so she won't hold it back."
The marriage between the two of them was settled like this. Qin Yanjun was smiling and Shen Dalang was also very excited. The look of the two of them made the people around him extremely happy.
It's better to be young.
Jiang Miao felt a little envious. She seemed to have never seen Shen Yanqing so excited. He was also happy when she agreed to marry him, but she still deliberately kept a straight face. If she could also go from blind date to engagement to marriage with him.
Just take a walk and it'll be fine.
But when I think about Jiang Miao, I find it funny. Everyone has their own fate, and she and Shen Yanqing have another kind of fate.
Being able to travel into the book and marry him first and then fall in love with him, Jiang Miao felt that she and Shen Yanqing were destined to have a relationship.
Now that Shen Dalang's marriage has been decided, all the wedding items must be prepared.
The Shen family's house is relatively small, so Mr. Shen and Mr. Wang bought another one for them next to it. It is close and easy to move around.
The Shen family is not short of money now, so they will not treat their own family harshly. Mrs. Zhang is very satisfied with Dafang's approach. She and Father Shen do not need children and grandchildren to serve, and it is best for the family to live well.
