"Is there a second wealthy family named Qiao in Qimu Town?" Magistrate Huang asked in confusion.
"There are many people named Qiao in Qimu Town, but there is only one big family..." Huang Shao's mouth suddenly went dry and he raised his head tremblingly, "May I ask my adoptive father, which young lady of the Qiao family is the child to be married to?"
"It seems...is it called Qiao Xi or Qiao Xilai?" County Magistrate Huang lowered his head and thought.
"Qiao Xi?!" Huang Shao felt his heart beating wildly. He was still very confused just now, but now he seemed to be filled with happiness. "Father, are you talking about Qiao Xi? Are you sure it's her?"
"Are you dissatisfied? It doesn't matter. My adoptive father respects your choice." County Magistrate Huang sighed, "When passing by Qimu Town this time, you can go and talk to the Qiao family..."
"Yes! My child is willing!" Huang Shao knelt down and kowtowed happily, "You are my biological father! My child will definitely respect you for the rest of his life!"
"Are you really willing?" Magistrate Huang was a little surprised.
"Yes! I'm really willing!" Huang Shao raised his head and said excitedly, "I'm not afraid of my adoptive father's jokes. I went to receive porridge from the Qiao family once before. I accidentally saw Miss Qiao's face at that time, and I couldn't forget it ever since."
I think about it all night long, tossing and turning. Being able to marry Miss Qiao is Shaoer's greatest wish in his life!"
"Okay!" Magistrate Huang was overjoyed, "That's great! Could it be that this is a God-given marriage? My son has the daughter he misses so much, and his adoptive father can also form a family of interest with the Qiao family. In this way, you will be able to get married this time.
In Qimu Town, you might as well make an appointment to get married first. Your adoptive father will order someone to prepare the betrothal gift and you will deliver it to Qiao Mansion in person. Or you can put the redemption matter aside for a day. Tomorrow, your adoptive father will be busy with official matters and you can go to Qimu Town in person.
The two families have agreed on the details of the wedding.”
"Ah! So urgent?" Huang Shao was surprised and happy.
"There is no way!" County Magistrate Huang said, "My adoptive father is busy with affairs, and a large number of official documents and love letters arrived today. As a parent, how can I not give priority to them? Besides, Mr. Qiao also said that the Qiao family has encountered some problems recently.
The adoptive father also has to take care of the small troubles in the mall for them. It comes and goes, and it is difficult to find time later. Therefore, Mr. Qiao’s intention is to hold the wedding in Qimu Town immediately after the agreement is reached, and his Qiao family will be responsible for everything.
The family only needs to send the betrothal gift and get married on the same day! Only in this way can the adoptive father be assured of bringing peace to the Qiao family, and the Qiao family can be assured of supporting the adoptive father."
"But...but tomorrow...I don't know if Miss Qiao is willing..." Huang Shao felt ten thousand willing, even ecstatic.
"Marriage is an order of your parents. Mr. Qiao came to propose marriage in person, so why worry?" Magistrate Huang said with a smile, "Shaoer, as long as you nod, tomorrow's adoptive father will take people to Qimu Town in person to watch you and
Then Miss Qiao gets married! Furthermore, after you get married, you can ask Master Qiao to provide more money, and it will be easier to go to Danyang to redeem people!"
"Thank you, foster father!" Huang Shao could not be happy and nodded excitedly.
On the same day, Huang Shao, accompanied by Zhu Huan, brought valuable calligraphy and paintings, a large amount of gold and silver, and a betrothal gift prepared by someone sent by Huang County Magistrate, and transported them to Qimu Town by car.
Along the way, he felt as if he was dreaming. He originally thought it was just an extravagant wish, but he didn't expect that his dream would come true and he could marry Qiao Xi. Is this a blessing that has been cultivated in several lifetimes?
The more I thought about it, the happier I became, with a smile on my face all the way.
Arrive at Qimu Town and go straight to the Qiao family's mansion.
When the Qiao family saw such a huge battle, they naturally welcomed it immediately.
Zhu Huan went over to explain his intention and presented a betrothal gift. Master Qiao was very happy and hurriedly welcomed the team into the house.
Logically speaking, Huang Shao should not have entered Qiao's house before the wedding, but sent someone to pick up Miss Qiao on the day of the wedding.
But it was agreed to get married at Qiao's house, and all other details were omitted.
After all, County Magistrate Huang has a difficult schedule and has to handle everything as soon as possible.
Entering Qiao's house, Mr. Qiao was so enthusiastic that he took Huang Shao's hand and called him a good son-in-law. Everyone in the Qiao family was polite to him.
Naturally, they knew Huang Shao's previous status, but now that he was the son of the magistrate of Zhuoshui County, his status had risen.
The magistrate of Zhuoshui County has no children. He only has such an adopted son, who is the same as his biological son.
Zhu Huan and the Qiao family were busy with the betrothal gift, while Mr. Qiao asked Huang Shao to ask questions, most of which were about when County Magistrate Huang would arrive.
Master Qiao was even more excited when he knew that he was coming tomorrow and had to prepare everything for the wedding.
If the groom hadn't been able to stay on the first day of the wedding, he would have let Huang Shao stay.
The Qiao family paid for Huang Shao to stay in the best inn in the town, and sent out invitations to relatives, friends, celebrities and gentry.
On the next day, Magistrate Huang and his people arrived early to organize the wedding banquet with Mr. Qiao.
Huang Shao has no family, let alone relatives.
Magistrate Huang's hometown is not here, so he only brought his confidants and a few concubines.
However, the Qiao family invited all their relatives over, and the rich and powerful people in Qimu Town also came over to congratulate them, including Captain Qin Yuan.
For the whole day, Huang Shao was immersed in unimaginable joy, and his mind was empty.
Getting married is a very tiring thing. The Qiao family was busy from morning to night, and Huang Shao was also working hard.
Each complex procedure was carried out step by step in an orderly manner. The preparations started in the early morning and continued until the sun set before finally reaching the most critical step of worshiping.
Huang Shao couldn't remember how he completed the ceremony at all. He only knew that when he came back to his senses, he was already at the wine table and had been toasted countless times. When the wedding banquet was over, he was supported by a servant and staggered towards Mr. Qiao who had specially paid for it.
A luxurious new house purchased by my daughter and son-in-law.
After entering the house, I closed the door and window, and walked to the bed in a daze. Looking at the motionless bride covered with a hijab on the bed, my mouth suddenly felt dry.
Almost tremblingly, he moved step by step to the bedside and carefully lifted the hijab. When his eyes came into contact with the beautiful face that haunted him, his heart almost melted.
The hijab was lifted, Qiao Xi lowered her head shyly, looking very charming.
"Husband, madam..." Huang Shao swallowed and was so nervous that he stuttered.
"Yeah~" Qiao Xi lowered her head and responded softly.
"Are you dissatisfied with marrying me?" Huang Shao asked worriedly, "After all, I, I was just..."
"Why should a woman be dissatisfied when she marries and obeys her husband?" Qiao Xi's voice was like a mosquito, "Now that we remember that we are married, we are husband and wife..."
Upon hearing this, all Huang Shao's worries turned into ashes, and all that was left was joy and happiness: "Madam!"
"Husband, husband..." Qiao Xi's brows were full of shame.
This expression made Huang Shao's rationality return to zero, and he couldn't wait to go to bed.
At this moment, there was a sudden strong wind outside the house, and the servants were in a mess.
Immediately afterwards, a loud voice was heard: "Brother, I am in trouble traveling far away. How can I wrap my fingers gently?"
Like thunder, the sound shook all the distracting thoughts from Huang Shao's mind, and he suddenly became clear.
That's right! I don't know what's going on with Jun'er now. He may be dragged into the battlefield and lose his life at any time. How could I forget about him and only care about the love between my children here?
"Who?" He quickly opened the door and looked around.
"Whoa!" He didn't see anyone, but he found a silver gun falling from the sky, right in front of him.
"The Qinglong Spear contains the soul of the Qinglong, which can help you defeat the enemy!" The voice sounded again, "Put aside your children's personal affairs and go to Bashui Town quickly. If you are late, your brother's life will be in danger!"
