The official media is also a matchmaker. Although a matchmaker can turn white into black with her mouth, she is running around all day long, making connections, and naturally has more knowledge.
My eyesight has not been in vain for so many years. I have never touched the cloth in the hands of the maid, and I know from the looks of it that the material is not ordinary. This kind of cloth is probably only available in the top cloth shops in Qing'an City.
She was wondering what had happened to these two sisters in the past few months. The last time she came here, their family situation was still very difficult. Not long ago, even the little maid was dressed in silk.
The price of the silk hairpin and silver hairpin may be more than her annual salary.
In this way, even the maids in the family are treated like young mistresses, so it is normal for them to look down on Mr. Su's family.
However, seeing that it was almost the end of the year, she still needed to match up a few couples to reach the number required above. She looked up at Liu Ruyi and said, "Girl, your requirements can't be too high. This marriage is very particular.
No matter how high you are, we can't reach you if you are the right person. If you are still so clueless, I won't be the one who comes here next time."
The official mediator's words were cryptic, and the Liu Ruyi sisters understood the meaning. The next time it wasn't her, it would be someone from the government.
A few months ago, even they would have had a headache for such a thing, but now, this threat has no effect.
Liu Ruyi watched Li Yi coming over, went up to greet him and said, "My husband is back."
The official media also turned their heads and saw the handsome young man walking this way. Hearing Liu Ruyi's address, he immediately understood that this man should be the husband of this woman. Judging from the situation, he should be a bride-in-law.
This young man looks very talented, so it would be a pity if he married into his wife.
"How much betrothal gift are you willing to pay for the Su family you mentioned?" Li Yi turned to look at the official media and asked with a smile.
When Liu Ruyi heard this, the expression on her face changed, and her eyes began to flash dangerously when she looked at Li Yi.
"Ms. sir." Liu Ruyi tugged on his sleeve and shook her head.
She and Liu Ruyi have been dependent on each other since they were young, and they have a deep love for each other. For her, she naturally doesn't want Ruyi to marry someone she doesn't like.
The official media was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Judging from the scholar's attitude, there seemed to be room for negotiation on this matter. A trace of joy appeared on his face and he said: "You can rest assured that Mr. Su's family has a lot of money. I believe
The betrothal gift will definitely satisfy you."
"If the Su family is willing to give 10,000 taels of gold as a betrothal gift, this matter is not beyond negotiation." Li Yi was still worried about the previous incident.
"What?"
The official media couldn't believe their ears and repeated, "Ten thousand taels of gold?"
Seeing Li Yi nodding, the official media stood dumbfounded and looked at him with a strange look.
Ten thousand taels of gold, she really dared to ask. Do you know how much it is? Even if the emperor marries a princess, he doesn't need such a large betrothal gift, right?
She originally thought about how far-sighted this small family could be. Even if the betrothal gift was a bit heavy, it might not be impossible to go back and discuss it with Mr. Su.
But these ten thousand taels of gold can't be collected even if the Su family is sold ten times!
Hearing what Li Yi said, Liu Ruyi's pretty face was also a little stunned. Knowing that he was probably just causing trouble on purpose, she smiled and stopped talking.
After Liu Ruyi glanced at him, the cold look on her face disappeared.
"Haha, this young master should stop joking. Who in the entire Qing'an Mansion can afford such a heavy betrothal gift of 10,000 taels of gold?" The official media twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile.
Ten thousand taels of gold is a huge amount of money for anyone. There may be many people in Qing'an Prefecture who can afford this money, but only a fool would use ten thousand taels of gold to make a betrothal gift.
"Then I can only say sorry..." Li Yi said regretfully, "I would like to ask this official mediator to make it easier for you. I won't bother you with the marriage of my wife and sister at home."
Although my sister-in-law has a bad temper, she is beautiful and has high martial arts skills. If she can't be sold for a good price, wouldn't it be a big loss?
"I'm afraid this won't work. You, a scholar, take it for granted."
The official media sneered and thought that this young scholar looked arrogant. Women of the right age must get married. This has been a rule since ancient times. She is just an official media. How can she have such great power? She said in a strange tone.
: "It is the right time for men to get married when they are older, and it is better for women to get married when they are older. This girl is not young anymore. I think it is the right way to get married to someone as soon as possible, otherwise it will be bad when the punishment comes down from above."
"How dare you talk to the county captain!"
Lao Fang took the cloth from Xiaohuan's hand and was about to leave when he heard the official media's strange voice. His brows sank involuntarily, and he strode over and said.
He had been with Li Yi for the past two days, staying in the county government office. Most of the people he came into contact with were the government officials, and he also learned a little from them. Although this was not a county government office, this woman dared to laugh at my uncle. If it were those government officials
Here, it will definitely not be so easy to give up.
The official media was still sneering in his heart, but was startled when a big man came over unexpectedly and scolded him.
After reacting, and just as he was about to scold him, he suddenly thought of the "Lord County Captain" he just said, and was shocked again. He had long heard that the previous County Captain Zhou had been dismissed from office, and a new County Captain had come to the Yamen, but she
I have never seen him before. Could it be this young man in front of me?
Although she still had some doubts in her heart, she thought that no one would dare to fake such a thing. She looked at Li Yi with a slightly respectful expression and asked: "You, are you the county captain?"
Li Yi took out the county captain's waist badge from his arms and waved it in front of her eyes.
"Ah, it's all my fault for being blind. I just bumped into you, sir. Please forgive me!" When he saw the waistband, the official media no longer had any doubts in his heart, and he immediately said with a panicked expression.
Before Li Yi could speak, she said again: "Don't worry, sir, this girl will make the decision on her own marriage. No official media will come here in the future, and no one will be sent to urge her from above."
Thinking of what she had just said to the county captain, the official media wanted to slap himself in the mouth, and now he hurriedly opened his mouth to make amends.
Although she, an official media, does not have such rights, as long as she reveals a little bit about the county captain's intentions, those people will never dare to make things difficult for the county captain's family.
At this moment, Li Yi felt that it was not bad to have a county captain's status. At least it would make many things easier to do. He waved his hand to the official media and said: "You just said, where should we register after we get married?"
?”
"Don't worry, sir. I will handle this matter properly after I return." The official media said very wisely.
Who would have thought that the sister of this family would be so lucky to be the county captain? If she had known earlier, how could she have dared to adopt such an attitude just now?
After being reminded by the official media just now, Li Yi realized that marriages in this era also need to be registered. Thinking about it again, he and Ruyi have actually been an illegal couple for so long...
Liu Ruyi watched him talk about this matter to the official media calmly, her eyes fixed, and the expression on her pretty face was slightly absent-minded.
After registering with the government, they become a real couple...
Registration with the government required birth dates, so Li Yi calculated it based on his birthday in his previous life. When he turned around, he saw Ruyi standing there in a daze, waved his hand in front of her eyes, and asked doubtfully: "Ruyi, what happened?"
Why are you asking for your birthday and horoscope..."
