"Chunxiang, do you think this pot of flowers is a bit too gaudy? Mu'er and the others like to be low-key, would it be better to replace it with something more elegant?"
"Yubai, don't be idle. Is this your son's engagement party? I really don't have any ideas. Come on, Chunxiang and I will be in charge here. You quickly go to Qingzhu and Xiaoyu's parents to deal with the guests. List, you can’t go wrong with this.”
"Ah Fu, Ah Ling, you two help me hang these red ribbons on the door rail of the main hall. Remember to make them attractive. Wait, Ah Si and the others haven't come back yet. Let them buy some Xiuyaxuan. Candy and snacks can be so slow, I have to teach them a lesson when I come back."
In recent days, the Li family mansion has changed from a quiet and peaceful scene. It is filled with a festive atmosphere inside and outside. The servants and maids are carrying baskets in Qinglan He swept through the city's markets boldly, and told everyone he met the good news that his second young master was getting engaged.
The entire house was decorated with various red lanterns and silks, and the plants and flowers in the garden were all replaced with warm colors. Even the most solemn martial arts training ground was decorated with colorful flags at Liu Ruoying's request.
And the busiest of all is the Mistress of the Li family. From the layout and planning of the venue, to the scheduling and use of personnel, as well as the invitation of important guests and the process of the engagement ceremony, everything is everything. It was arranged properly by Liu Ruoying.
However, in this process, the head of the family, Li Yubai, was somewhat affected. With the current reputation of the Li family in Qinglan City and even the Cangyun Empire, such a big event as the engagement of the second son in the family would not only attract tens of thousands of people, but would at least attract national attention.
On that day, there will be many immortal cultivating sects, large forces, and even foreign envoys coming to congratulate you. The heavyweight guests confirmed now include Hua Rong, the elder of the Medical Saint Hua family, Hua Mei, the legitimate daughter of the head of the family, and Penglai Shilao. Chief Baili and second-chairman Shen Bairu, Yunlan Sect leader Yun Li'er, Gao Jin, president of the Gao Chamber of Commerce, and his legitimate son Gao Ye, etc.
There are countless other immortal sects in the empire such as Xuantian Sword Sect, King Kong Sect, Zichuan Sect, etc. It takes a lot of time and energy just to receive these people, and Liu Ruoying leaves all the matters on these scenes to Liu Ruoying Li Yubai will handle it.
Although Li Mu, this cheap dad, is the head of the family, he has no airs at all on weekdays and doesn't like this kind of communication and communication between the so-called powerful people.
However, he couldn't disobey Liu Ruoying's arrangements because of his "strict control over his wife", and it was all for the good of his son, so he pinched his nose and started "running around day and night".
Among this series of preliminary preparations, the most important and most difficult thing is to meet the parents of the three "heroines".
Lin Qingzhu's father was the counselor of the Li family and Li Yubai's right-hand man for many years. The two families had planned to form an in-laws since they were young, so this was the best time to go through.
Nie Xiaoyu's parents were civilians, and were later arranged to work in Shuangfeng Tower by Li Mu. After the defense battle of Qinglan City, the relationship between Li Mu and Nie Xiaoyu gradually became clear. As an elder, it was naturally inconvenient for him to show his face, so he met Liu Ruo. Under Ying's arrangement, the two began to take care of some properties for the Li family, and they were able to live a prosperous life, so this level was not difficult.
But it is not that easy to get the last "father". At the beginning, Ruo Yingxiong was firmly opposed to this marriage. The eldest lady of Jin Fuxuan, a powerful giant in the fairy world, was the future heir and the young man he wanted to pursue. Not to mention that talents are arranged from Qinglan City to Penglai Immortal Island, at least they are ranked in units of thousands or even tens of thousands.
But now Ruolan has to marry a young boy who is younger than herself, and this young boy even shamelessly wants to engage three brides at once. This is simply pulling up Ruo Yingxiong's bottom line, rubbing it repeatedly and finally throwing it away. He stepped on the ground a few times, how could he agree?
It is said that Ruo Yingxiong once said "harsh words", which meant that Li Mu wanted to marry Ruo Lan only if he died.
However, when Ruolan found her father and had a long talk in a "friendly" manner, the leader of Jinfuxuan finally relaxed.
If the hero seemed to have aged a bit when he walked out of the room, and kept mumbling words such as "women are not allowed to stay", I would think...
He must have been truly convinced by his daughter who "learns with emotion and acts with reason".
However, as a member of the Li family, all the etiquette should be indispensable. Li Yubai personally went to Huiyue City to propose marriage with a generous betrothal gift. The vast convoy included hundreds of pigs and cows, as well as There are countless gold and silver jewelry and magic weapons.
If the hero is not a stupid person, although Jin Fuxuan's reputation in the fairy world is greater than that of the Li family, the other party still has
There is a hidden sect, and various intelligence shows that this family, which lives in a low-key manner in the Cangyun Empire, also has incredible strength in the supreme realm.
So it was actually his Ruo family who had the upper hand over the other party, but the appearance of Li Mu marrying three people really made Ruo Yingxiong unable to swallow his breath, so when he received Li Yubai, he still showed some dissatisfaction.
However, Li Yubai got a death order from Liu Ruoying. No matter how cold the other party's face was, he had to find a way to bring Ruolan back. This was the daughter-in-law of the Li family, so it didn't matter no matter how much it cost.
So the heads of the two families began to secretly compete in the magnificent living room of Jinfuxuan. The format was also very straightforward, which was to fight for wine.
On the one hand, there is a monk who has reached the perfect state of the Infinite Realm, and his physical quality is different from ordinary people. On the other hand, there is a business guild boss who is known in the fairy world as being able to drink a thousand cups. Shockingly, the two men risked their lives for their children. You poured one glass of fine liquor into the other's mouth, and I drank for five hours but still couldn't decide the winner.
"Old...brother, I...I'm telling you, my son is a dragon among men, and he will achieve great things in the future. He will never treat your daughter badly. You...just rest assured. , if he dares to bully... bully your daughter, I will be the first to not spare him."
"Old...brother, with you...with your words, I can rest assured. My Ruolan is my precious baby, Li...I admire him...if he dares to mess around with women outside again, I... I won’t let him go either.”
"Okay... that's easy to say, come on... come on, brother, I'll give you a toast."
"Come, come, I...I'll toast you too."
In the end, both Li Yubai and Ruo Yingxiong drank too much, and they lay down directly there, talking nonsense, but fortunately, the matter ended successfully.
Li Mu also came to formally greet Ruolan a few days later. Before setting off, the very assertive Miss Jin Fuxuan finally hugged her father with red eyes.
In this way, the engagement journey of the three "brides" was successfully completed, and with the joint discussion of all parties, the engagement ceremony will be officially held on an auspicious day two weeks later.
This ceremony attracted the attention of countless people, each with their own thoughts, and their attention was once again focused on Qinglan City, the pearl of the East China Sea.
