Chapter 10 Mu Sheng welcomes the family
Just after the next day, Mu Sheng got up and prepared. A romantic and elegant prince, coupled with happy events, is particularly high-willed today. Last night, the housekeeper had installed the whole courtyard in red and prepared a red sedan chair according to his own instructions. But after all, it was the outer room secretly married behind the princess's back, so I didn't dare to say too much, so I didn't prepare gongs, drums, firecrackers, or plan to entertain guests.
Just after the day, Mu Sheng had breakfast and changed into the prepared bright red dress. I walked into the study and read the letter I had written to Chang Shenda last night again. He folded it with satisfaction and put it in an envelope. The envelope was not sealed and stuffed into his arms with a smile. He strode out of the other courtyard, followed by the housekeeper, the dwarf and the red sedan chair.
Walking to the west end of the alley, a little man came forward and knocked on the door. Huang opened the door, saw the situation outside, and quickly saluted respectfully. Although Shoucai had revealed one or two last night, he was still a little surprised to see it. Thinking that the young lady did this for her own business, something that she shouldn't have suddenly surged up in her heart, and her eyes were a little wet. Huang quickly lowered his head, opened his door, and respectfully waited for Mr. Mu and his party to enter the door, timidly following the end.
Chen Shoucai got the letter and arrived at the door, leading Mr. Mu to the living room with a smile on his face.
A long time ago, his maid went to tell his host and the young lady, and Yan Shengrui went to meet Hui Niang specially. Hui Niang also got up and had breakfast. I changed into the expensive red dress I brought from home, which was originally worn when I was going to meet the King of Yan. Seeing that his daughter was so reasonable, Yan Shengrui said softly to his daughter with satisfaction, "Hui Niang, you are leaving the cabinet today. I will serve my husband well in the future!"
There was a faint sadness in Hui Niang's heart. It is said that merchants value profits, and now they have fulfilled themselves. Hui Niang knelt on her knees with tears and saluted her father respectfully. Hui Niang wishes her father good health, the Yan family goes well, and the future is bright!" After saying that, without waiting for his father's help, he stood up, took the big red cover handed over by Xue Zhu, and put his hand on his head. He said resolutely, "Let's go!" It seems that I have made a lot of determination, and it seems that I want to put all this aside.
Yan Shengrui led the way in front of him, and the four maids also wore red shirts, surrounded the young lady, followed closely, and walked all the way to the living room. When Mu Sheng saw the newcomer in red, he immediately bowed and bowed deeply to Yan Shengrui, "Taishan is on the top, please be worshipped by the son-in-law!"
"The virtuous son-in-law is exempt from etiquette, and the virtuous son-in-law is exempt from etiquette!" Yan Shengrui quickly came forward and helped Mr. Mu up. The maid helped the young lady and came over. Yan Shengrui said to Mu Sheng with concern, "Son-in-law, the little girl is entrusted to you!" I hope you can treat her well."
Mu Sheng saluted Yan Shengrui again with a smile on his face. After the ceremony, he took out the prepared letter from his arms and handed it to Yan Shengrui with both hands.
The moment Yan Shengrui took the letter, his hand shook unconsciously and stuffed it into his arms without delay. These small pieces of paper are related to the survival of the Yan family, and also exchange the lifelong happiness of their only daughter. Maybe they will think that they value profit over affection, but who knows their helplessness and helplessness?! Since the previous dynasty, the Yan family has been in today's situation by making friends with officials for several generations. Many people stared at it hotly, trying to share a piece of the Yan family's soup. But in this situation, if the official's care is lost, the Yan family will become a fish to be slaughtered. Thinking of this, Yan Shengrui sighed softly, okay! Depending on the situation, Mr. Mu still likes Hui Niang very much, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to come to the door. Thinking of this, Yan Shengrui smiled again, "Son-in-law! It's getting late, so let's pick up Hui Niang and go to the house!"
Mu Sheng smiled and took over the red silk on the maid's hand, took one end, stood side by side with Hui Niang, knelt on the cushions that had been placed together, and kowtowed three heads to Yan Shengrui. Yan Shengrui held up Mu Sheng and Hui Niang with tears in his eyes, choked and said nothing more. Seeing that his daughter was taken out of the hall by Mu Shengfu, she was put on a red sedan chair and carried out of the door. There was something cool in her mouth. She turned around and quickly wiped it dry with her sleeves.
Yan Shengrui adjusted his mood and waited for Shou Cai to come back, so he ordered, "Shou Cai, go and prepare quickly. I'll leave for Zhenjiang immediately."
Chen Shoucai didn't dare to neglect. He ran down in a hurry and quickly prepared everything. Yan Shengrui protected the letter in his chest with his hand, got into the carriage and left.
