"These salt-baked pine nuts are salty and pine-flavored, and delicious." San Auntie praised while eating.
"I also like fried pine nuts, and the original pine nuts are also good." Second aunt Su Qingqing said.
"Most of these pine nuts are purchased from Chenjia Village in Meilin County, where the third uncle took office." There are few pine trees in Liujia Village and the yield of pine nuts is low. Fortunately, there are many pine trees in Chenjia Village.
"Recently, I heard feedback from my subordinates that the lives of the farmers in Chenjiacun have improved recently, and many young men working outside have returned. I was confused at the time and wanted to go to investigate in the next few days. It turned out to be like this." Hello niece. In this way, a problem was solved for him.
"That's good. At least you don't have to leave your hometown and you can make money at home. Sanbo, is Chenjia Village the only one in Meilin County that is relatively remote and poor?" Rural revitalization is very necessary regardless of ancient or modern times.
"Not only that, there are also many remote and very poor villages in other counties under Nanzhou Fucheng."
Su Qinghai sighed with a sad face. It was only after he went to Meilin County to take office that he fully understood that there were still many poor and backward villages in Dayun Country.
Su Lele thought for a while and said, "Third uncle, when I have some free time, I will go to Meilin County to have a look."
There was no way to visit the entire Dayun Kingdom, nor to take care of all the poor villages, but in Meilin County where the third uncle took office, Su Lele still wanted to help, which would also help the third uncle's official performance.
"good."
wedding day
Before Chen time arrived, Su Lele was pulled up by the maid Qiu Yu to dress up. Seeing the charming and elegant girl in front of her with exquisite makeup, gold hairpin, and bright red wedding dress, Wang Huilan couldn't help but cry, with a face full of reluctance.
"Okay, mother, don't cry, your makeup is gone." Su Lele hugged her mother.
"Today is a good day, everyone is happy." Grandfather Su Dong said, and the old man was in high spirits today.
At this time, a servant came to report: "The second prince has arrived."
Su Lele asked Xiniang to cover her with a red hijab.
The eldest brother Su Yixing carried her on his back and walked out of the hall amidst the auspicious words sung by Xiniang. Firecrackers began to sound outside the door.
Su Dong saw tears in his eldest grandson's eyes, walking so heavily step by step, and tears welled up in his own eyes.
"I'll be back in a few days." Su Qingqing advised.
"I know, I'm happy, yes, I'm happy." After saying that, two lines of tears couldn't help but fall.
In order to avoid being noticed by others, I quickly wiped away the tears on my face with my sleeves.
"I handed my sister over to the prince, please be kind to her and don't let others bully her," Su Yixing told Leng Yichen seriously.
Although their marriage was a transaction, Leng Yichen still gave her enough face and said, "Don't worry, others can't bully her as long as I'm here."
With his assurance, the Su family felt at ease.
Only then did Su Yixing hand over the sister on his back to him.
Leng Yichen gently put Su Lele into the sedan chair, and festive trumpets sounded.
"Get up the sedan." Xiniang sang. At the same time, the sound of crackling firecrackers sounded.
Looking at the sedan chair going away, everyone withdrew their gaze.
The distance between the Su Mansion and the Wang Mansion is not far. There are many people watching the excitement on the road. Some are congratulating and blessing, while others are not optimistic and are silently complaining. Among them is Yun Zhishu, the daughter of Lord Shangshu, who is watching from the corner of the street.
Looking at the handsome and majestic Leng Yichen who was getting further and further away from her, she was heartbroken. Why didn't she marry him? I heard that Su Lele was not proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her family background was not as good as hers, so why should she marry the prince?
The sedan chair was big enough and Su Lele was quite comfortable sitting in it. Along the way, she was actually quite complicated inside. Unexpectedly, she got married not long after arriving in ancient times, even though it was a transaction.
"Please, Your Majesty, kick the sedan door." Outside the sedan, Xiniang said to the Prince with a smile.
After waiting for a while, the car door was not kicked, and the door curtain was gently opened. Then, Su Lele felt being carried out.
Suddenly there were lively cheers and blessings outside.
The bride needs to cross the fire plate. Seeing the fire plate burning brightly, Su Lele hesitated for a while, then Leng Yichen picked her up again and crossed the fire plate.
Everyone present, especially the female family members, were all envious and jealous, staring at Su Lele under the hijab.
After arriving at the main hall, Leng Yichen put Su Lele down.
At this time, the Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Queen, the Prince and others were already waiting in the main hall.
Xiniang gave the hydrangea made of bright red silk to Su Lele, who would use it for worship later.
"We worship the heaven and the earth." The old master presided over the wedding. He, the Duke of the old town, the old lieutenant, and the old prime minister's family all came to congratulate the prince today.
"Two bows to the high hall"
"Sent into the bridal chamber" Finally, with the singing of the old lady, the ceremony was completed.
I was so tired that my bones were falling apart. After Su Lele was sent to Yanyu Pavilion, she took off her red hijab and drank several cups of tea while no servants were around.
An hour later, the maid came in with some food. Su Lele thought to herself: "This second prince still has some conscience. Although he looks cold and heartless, he has not forgotten that she is still waiting quietly in the room."
After eating and drinking, it was already evening. Since it is a contract marriage, there must be no talk of a wedding night. He ordered Qiu Yu to come in and said, "I want to take a shower and change clothes. I'll ask my servants to get ready."
"Okay, miss." The maid Qiu Yu came with the dowry. The Su family originally wanted her to bring a few more maids, but Su Lele thought it was troublesome, and one was enough. Moreover, the palace was so big that there was no shortage of servants.
The Wang Mansion is different. The main room of the villa where she lives now is twice as big as the one in Su Mansion. The decoration in the room is also very exquisite and luxurious.
After taking a bath, Su Lele felt refreshed and lay on the large bed. She thought she would not be able to sleep in a strange place, but she fell asleep instantly...
The Queen Mother and the guests who came to congratulate her have all gone back. At this time, Leng Yichen has also returned to Yijing Pavilion.
"Master, the princess has already fallen asleep." Lengfeng wanted to go and tell Su Lele that she would get up early tomorrow and go to the palace with the prince to pay her respects, but found out that the princess had already fallen asleep, so he had to tell her maid Qiu Yu.
"Yeah." Leng Yichen's mouth moved. This woman was content to follow the local customs.
Early the next morning, Su Lele was sleeping happily when he was woken up by shouts.
"Miss, wake up quickly and dress up. You will go to the palace with the prince later to pay his respects."
Su Lele sat up with a jerking motion. Yes, it is usually the second day after getting married that you have to pay your respects, especially to the royal family.
After a while, Su Lele was dressed up, and before breakfast, she and Leng Yichen took a carriage to the palace.
