Matchmaker Tan quickly replied to the Shen family, saying that the woman had agreed and they had arranged to meet at the Baiyu Temple in the south of the county three days later.
Shen Luzhu originally planned to accompany him that day, but he kicked off the quilt at midnight the first night and caught a cold. The next day, he had a fever. Shen Chuanbai gave him an injection and drank some decoction. , although the fever has subsided, but the whole person is still wilted. He only sticks to his mother-in-law and is not interested in anything else.
Zhengzheng rarely got sick since he was a child, but now that he saw his fat son like this, Shen Luzhu still had the thought to follow him to the Baiyu Temple to see him, so he hurriedly asked his assistant to go to the Shen house and explain the situation.
The meeting between the Shen family went smoothly. Although Shen Zeqi had been married before, he was still handsome. The Shen family had its own business and industry in this county. Hao Qiuyue and her aunt didn't dare to even dream of it. The ideal son-in-law.
As for the Shen family, the main thing they were looking for was Hao Qiuyue's character and temperament. Both Aunt Shen and Shen's mother thought it was good. Shen Zeqi certainly had nothing to be dissatisfied about, and the two families settled on the marriage smoothly. , and then just waited to propose marriage and get married as soon as possible.
Second Aunt Shen was very satisfied with Hao Qiuyue, her future daughter-in-law. The only thing she felt was that this girl had lived a too poor life before and was extremely thin.
Thinking that the unmarried couple should always be able to strengthen their relationship, they took Shen's mother to the market and bought a lot of food and supplements, and asked Shen Zeqi to send them to Aunt Hao's family.
Seeing Aunt Su carrying large and small bundles into the kitchen, Hao Qiuyue, who was lighting the fire and preparing to cook, asked puzzledly: "Why did Auntie bring so many things? Put them down quickly, be careful not to strangle your hands."
Aunt Su looked around at her somewhat crude kitchen, thought for a while and said, "Qiuyue, please put down the kitchen work first, and let's take these things into your house first."
Hearing that she was going to take it to her house, Hao Qiuyue thought that her aunt was spending money on her marriage, so she quickly tried to dissuade her: "Aunt, you bought this for me? Didn't you tell me not to spend money on me? The Shen family knows that I In such a situation, the marriage has already been decided, so I won’t take these arguments, why can’t I just keep my aunt’s money?”
Su Shi looked at her nagging niece and felt that her love for her was not in vain. Then she thought of the suffering she had suffered before, and felt a little sorry for Hao Qiuyue and her mother-in-law. If it weren't for the difficult life at home, It's too late, it's time to take her home as soon as possible.
Thinking about this, Mrs. Su opened the package sent by Shen Zeqi, saw the contents inside and said, "Don't worry, I didn't buy these. How could my aunt have so much money to buy so many supplements and food? This is from the Shen family, sent by Shen Zeqi. I think he feels sorry for you and uses it to replenish your health."
"Shen...he said that?"
Su Shi shook her head: "That's not true. I just said that I was passing by and brought some things to our family. But it doesn't matter whether I said it or not. You should keep these and make something to eat every day. Okay. Have a good baby... Sister, bless me, we Qiuyue have really found a good in-law, and finally all the hardships will come to an end."
Seeing the tears in the corners of Su's eyes, Hao Qiuyue knew that her aunt was thinking of those sad things again, so she quickly diverted her attention and said: "There is so much, how can I eat it all by myself? The Shen family must have prepared enough for our whole family, I will Just cook it and eat it when your uncle and cousin come back from working in the fields."
Because they had to get married within the three-month filiation period, within a few days of seeing each other, the two families had completed the process of proposing marriage and making an appointment, and were just waiting for Shen Zeqi to come to marry him on the appointed day.
When Mother Shen and Aunt Shen prepared the betrothal gift, they put a lot of effort into it. It not only contained the conventional wild geese, silver coins, jewelry and other items, but also came with several large wooden boxes containing the fabrics needed to make wedding dresses. There are also all the dowries that the mother's family should prepare and all the materials needed.
It was only when the villagers saw the Shen family's vast recruitment team that they realized that the poor eldest daughter of the Hao family had actually made such a good marriage.
