Shen Yao did not leave immediately. Instead, he spent the night on the bench in the Ji family’s central room.

In fact, he had rushed over because firstly, he really missed Ah Tao. Secondly, he was worried.

After all, Ji Chen was too young and did not have the ability to protect Ji Zhao properly.

It was not until dawn that Shen Yao climbled onto White Snow and sped back to Shanghe Village.

Ji Zhao, who had a good night’s sleep, lazily stretched her waist and practiced a set of Five Animal Frolics. After sweating a little, she felt refreshed.

The moment she walked into the kitchen and lifted the lid of the pot, a smile spread across her lips.

“Sister?” Ji Chen also walked into the kitchen. When he saw his sister holding the pot lid and smiling foolishly, he couldn’t help but worry. “Are you alright?” “No, nothing.” Ji Zhao quickly smiled. “Chenchen, let’s have breakfast.”

The fragrant minced steamed eggs with minced meat coupled with the fragrant corncobs made one drool.

Ji Zhao scooped a spoonful of steamed eggs and savored it carefully.

In the end, she came to a conclusion.

Shen Yao’s culinary skills improved again.

After the siblings finished their breakfast, a familiar voice suddenly sounded outside the courtyard.

“Ah Tao! ‘

“Aunt Guihua?” Ji Zhao was a little surprised when she saw who it was.

What surprised her even more was the six ox carts behind Aunt Guihua.

Every ox cart was stuffed full, and the most eye-catching one was a wild deer wrapped in white cloth.

In the wilderness lies a dead deer, wrapped in white grass.

A maiden in love, a gentleman takes her fancy..

These words suddenly appeared in Ji Zhao’s mind, and the temperature on her face involuntarily rose by two degrees. “Aunt Guihua, what are you doing?”

“Ah Tao, didn’t your mother tell you in advance?’ Aunt Guihua smiled so widely that her teeth couldn’t be seen. “Your mother asked me to be the matchmaker.

I’m here to give you a betrothal gift today!”

Ji Zhao really did not expect Zhao Lanhua to prepare such a big surprise for her!

“By the way, this wild deer was added by Shen Yao this morning. He said that you’ll understand at a glance.” Aunt Guihua introduced excitedly, “By the way, other than the wild deer, there’s also wine, tea, cloth, and so on. Don’t worry, these items are all double sets.”

“Oh right, oh right, there’s also the betrothal money, 99 taels.” Aunt Guihua seemed to have thought of something and patted her smooth forehead. ‘This is what your mother specially instructed. 99 taels symbolizes that you and Shen

Yao will live a long and harmonious life in the future!”

In addition to the 99 taels of silver, there was also a bundle (50 kilograms) of betrothal pastries, eight types of seafood (seaweed, abalone, scallops, shiitake mushrooms, dried shrimp, squid, sea cucumber, shark fin), pork, lamb, beef, carp, four fruits [1. A traditional Chinese wedding custom. It refers to a set of four fruits that are given to the bride’s family by the groom’s family as part of the betrothal ceremony. The four fruits usually include dried longan, red dates, lotus seeds, and walnuts, and they symbolize good wishes for the couple’s future, such as fertility, happiness, and prosperity.] , and a chest of money. As Aunt Guihua reported the names and numbers of these betrothal gifts, Ji Zhao felt dazzled.

Aunt Guihua’s voice was very loud. Coupled with the commotion outside the Ji family’s courtyard, it was too lively.

Soon, the Ji family’s courtyard was surrounded by villagers.

“Everyone, it’s Ah Tao’s wedding day soon. At that time, the Ji family will also hold a banquet. At that time, everyone, remember to come to the wedding banquet!” Aunt Guihua beat the gong and drum as she distributed some wedding candy to everyone.

“By the way, Ah Tao, take a closer look. This is the list of betrothal gifts.” After entering the central room, Aunt Guihua happily handed the items in her sleeve to her. “I heard that Third Brother wrote them himself!”

“Aunt Guihua, thank you for your hard work.” Ji Zhao personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to her with a grateful smile.

“Hey, girl, why are you being so polite with me? Not to mention my relationship with your mother, just based on the fact that both of us are girls who married out of Pomegranate Village, I have to help!”

Aunt Guihua smiled brightly and said, “Besides, your mother won’t treat me badly!”

Zhao Lanhua had already told her beforehand that as long as she held the wedding banquet in Pomegranate Village in a grand manner, she would definitely prepare a generous gift.

“Let’s decorate this house tomorrow,” Aunt Guihua said with a smile. “By the way, I brought your wedding dress over.”

“Alright, thank you, Auntie.”

‘Why are you being so polite-”

After Aunt Guihua’s grooming, the Ji family’s courtyard could be said to be brand new.

In the fenced courtyard, tables, chairs, and benches borrowed from other people’s houses were neatly arranged. A red silk cloth passed through them.

June 15th. The bright moon hanging in the night sky was exceptionally bright.

Ji Zhao, who was standing in front of the window and looking at the full moon, actually felt a trace of apprehension in her heart.

After all, she was going to get married after dawn!

Squeak—

“Sister?”

“Chenchen?” Ji Zhao turned around and looked at the young boy walking towards her with a smile. “What’s wrong?”

“I want to talk to sister,” Ji Chen looked up at her and said obediently.

“Okay, what does our Chenchen want to talk about?”

“Sister, at the end of the month, I want to go to Jiangnan with Master Song,” Ji Chen said softly.

Ji Zhao was a little surprised. She raised her hand and rubbed his little head.

She asked gently, “When did you decide?’

“Half a month ago,” Ji Chen said honestly. “Master said that the scenery in Jiangnan is very beautiful. He has been yearning for it for a long time. He wants to take me to tour the Jiangnan mist and rain and come back during the new year.”

“You want to go?”

“Yes.” Ji Chen nodded without hesitation. “But I want to go with Sister more. But Chenchen knows that Spring Breeze Pavilion is Sister’s hard work and you can’t leave it, so I can only go myself.”

“Okay.”

Even though she was reluctant, Ji Zhao still agreed.

After all, Ji Chen had already grown up. He had to go out and see the world.

“Sister, rest early.”

The next day, when the sky was starting to brighten, Ji Zhao was woken up by Aunt Guihua’s loud voice.

She opened the door in a daze. “Auntie, why are you so early?’

“Silly girl, you should wash up!”

Aunt Guihua invited a round-faced woman in and introduced her with a smile, “Ah Tao, this is Madam Guo. She’s the most famous marriage broker in the surrounding villages!”

“Miss Ah Tao, are you ready?” Madam Guo was wearing a dark red long robe. She had ample breasts and fat buttocks, making her look jovial.

“Ready for what?”

“Threading! ”

When Ji Zhao heard this, she couldn’t help but gasp.

Madam Guo stood in front of Ji Zhao with the five-colored cotton thread and began to thread her eyebrows for her.

“Hiss—”

The moment Madam Guo made her move, Ji Zhao couldn’t help but make a sound.

Threading was indeed painful!

About an hour later, Madam Guo said, “It’s done.”

Ji Zhao silently looked at the face in the bronze mirror and blinked blankly.

She didn’t seem to recognize herself!
