In the world of Chen Xiaobei's parents, there is only the grief of losing a child in middle age.
After worshiping with various emotions, the next step was to send her to the bridal chamber. Xiaoqing supported Liu Rumei and took a step forward, handed Liu Rumei's arm into Chen Xiaobei's hand, and then stepped back.
Over there, Yang Chun and Liu Yuanwen looked at each other, stood up, and went out to greet everyone and prepare to have a banquet.
In order to save some effort, Liu Yuanwen directly put the banquet they should invite here, so that everything would be over tonight.
The banquet began to be prepared in the courtyard, while Chen Xiaobei and Liu Rumei sat opposite each other in the bridal chamber.
Before Chen Xiaobei could take action, Liu Rumei took off the red hijab herself.
Chen Xiaobei said quickly, "Don't worry, the time has not come yet."
Liu Rumei smiled and said, "I'm not that particular. Brother Xiaobei, I haven't seen you for a long time. Let's talk for a while."
"I've also come to understand a lot these days. Fame, wealth and fame are all external things."
"I want to go back to Hetou Village with you and live a peaceful life. As for the rest, I don't need to think too much about it."
Chen Xiaobei didn't understand why Liu Rumei's mood changed so much?
But her words could not help but reveal her disgust and despair for this world. Perhaps what the emperor did had completely chilled him.
"Rumei, you are different from me. You have to come back after the prince's meeting and find a way to rehabilitate the prince."
Liu Rumei shook her head slightly, "So what? Even if he is rehabilitated, it is just a false name, so what's the use?"
"I, the Liu family, have been loyal and loyal for generations. Not only have I made great contributions to the country of Dacang, but at least I am worthy of my conscience. In the end, I ended up like this."
Speaking of which, Chen Xiaobei knew that he couldn't force him to do something like this. The more he tried to persuade him, the more counterproductive it would be.
Just then there was a knock on the door, followed by Xiao Qing's voice, "It's time for my uncle to come out and give a toast."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Liu Rumei stood up immediately.
"Brother Xiaobei, I'll go with you."
Chen Xiaobei was startled. According to the scene he watched on TV, shouldn't the bride wait obediently in the bridal chamber at this time?
It's not like in his previous life, where the couple was required to toast the guests together.
After thinking about it, Liu Rumei didn't care about these worldly opinions. Why should she care about it? After all, she came from time-travel, so just love it.
When Chen Xiaobei walked out and saw the guests in the courtyard, he realized that it was absolutely the right choice for Liu Rumei to come out to toast, because he hardly knew the dozens of guests at the table.
After all, those who came here were all representatives from various royal palaces in the capital. Although they were all butlers and princes, they represented the officialdom behind them.
For Chen Xiaobei, these people are not much different from passers-by, but Liu Rumei is different. He is more or less familiar with these people. Although his elder brother is here, he comes out to toast with them. Say a few common words to someone you know well. This seemed to be human nature, and for a while the courtyard was bustling with people.
Of course, the news of Liu Rumei's marriage is naturally a hot topic in Wannian City today, and it will soon be on the top of the hot search headlines.
After dinner, Xiao An still clasped his hands behind his back, listening to Xiao Shunzi telling him some interesting stories about today's visit, and chatting with him.
While talking, Liu Rumei and Chen Xiaobei were naturally mentioned.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Chen Xiaobei spent two hundred taels of silver to rent the mansion of Prime Minister Fang Lao to entertain the guests tonight."
After hearing this, Xiao An turned his head and looked at Xiao Shunzi, with a faint smile in his eyes.
"Oh, Fang Zheng still needs some money?"
"Yes, the emperor heard that he asked for two hundred taels. This news has spread everywhere now."
Uh-huh, he laughed, "This Fang Zheng is really good at it."
"But, that's understandable."
"He has returned to his hometown. This house is idle."
Xiao Shunzi quickly bowed and said, "Yes, the Emperor may just let the family members below him make their own decisions."
Xiao An waved his hand.
"It doesn't matter who made the claim, as long as the people in the city know that money was collected from his house."
The smile on the corner of his mouth deepened when he said this.
Not only did he have to evict the house, but he also had to ask him to declare that he would sweep it away. Isn't this the best opportunity?
At this time in Fang Zheng's mansion, Liu Rumei's toast was coming to an end. He was chatting and laughing with a few young people, but he saw the little girl walking over angrily, pulling Chen Xiaobei's arm, "Brother Xiaobei Come here, I have something to tell you."
Chen Xiaobei didn't know what was going on, who had offended this little ancestor because of his lack of eyesight, but he had no choice but to make a gesture with Liu Rumei and follow the little girl to the side.
The two of them came to the corner. The little girl put her hands on her hips and said, "I kindly lent our mansion to you for your wedding, but you ruined my grandfather's reputation by saying that my grandfather took you two hundred taels of silver. You said you were doing this for fun." What's the point?"
After hearing this, Chen Xiaobei spread his hands and said, "This is not my idea. Rumei arranged for me to say this. As for why you have to ask her."
"Okay, please stop lying to me. Now it has been spread outside that you paid two hundred taels of silver to my family. When did I receive a penny from you?"
Chen Xiaobei knew about this, and if he didn't invite Liu Rumei over, he would definitely not be able to explain it.
"Little girl, don't be impatient. You can wait in the room over there first. I'll bring Rumei over and let her explain it to you in person."
Although the little girl was unwilling, she still walked to the next room obediently.
Chen Xiaobei quickly turned around to find Liu Rumei.
Seeing Liu Rumei explaining the reason, Liu Rumei nodded, "It's my fault that I didn't explain this to the little girl earlier. I'll tell him now."
Liu Rumei quickly came to the room. Seeing the little girl sitting there looking at her angrily, she smiled and stepped forward.
"Little girl, don't be angry. I asked someone to tell you about this."
"Sister, is this going too far? Our family is not short of your two hundred taels of silver."
"I know, little girl, listen to me, I am doing this. It is to protect your grandpa and everyone."
"Your grandpa has been an official for many years and has many disciples in the officialdom. Although he is no longer the prime minister, people will always come to you when they encounter big or small things. It would be a good idea to ask for your advice."
After hearing this, the little girl looked proud, "No, my grandfather is the Dinghai Shenzhen of our Dacang Kingdom. Many students come to ask him when they encounter difficult problems."
Liu Rumei looked at the little girl and sighed slightly, "This is exactly what the emperor is afraid of."
