After time travel, I ate glutinous rice bran in ancient times

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Lu brought Shuisheng to Wang Yugui's house to celebrate the Lantern Festival as in previous years.

When Mrs. Lu heard the good news that Wang Yugui was going to get married, she was both happy and envious: "Oh, in the blink of an eye, Yugui is getting married! It's great!"

Then he smiled to Wang and said, "Aunt Wang, your daughter-in-law is coming home soon, be happy!"

"Yes, I have been smiling since the first day of the new year. I have never stopped smiling," Wang said happily.

Mrs. Lu smiled and looked at her eldest and second sisters: "Oh, it's too late, it would be better if Chunsheng and Shuisheng of our family could marry the eldest and second sisters as soon as possible!"

The eldest and second sisters smiled and lowered their heads in embarrassment after hearing this. Wang smiled and said, "Oh, Aunt Lu, you'll have to wait a few more years."

"Our eldest and second sisters are still young, and I am reluctant to let them get married, haha!"

"Haha, Aunt Wang, that's all I said." Mrs. Lu laughed and said, "The provincial examination has been postponed for another year this year. It will take another three or four years for Chunsheng and the others to finish their exams."

"Yes, Aunt Lu, when Chunsheng comes back, we can let him and Shuisheng get married together." Wang Yugui laughed: "As for me, I can marry off my eldest sister and second sister at the same time, haha!"

"Ah? Brother, you want to marry me and my sister together?" The second sister looked up at Wang Yugui.

Wang Yugui smiled: "Yes, what's the matter? You don't want to?"

"Ah? I, I, I haven't thought about it yet, hehe." The second sister smiled embarrassedly after hearing this.

The eldest sister also laughed: "Brother, we were talking about your marriage, why are you talking about me and the second sister!"

"Brother Yugui, why do you think the same as my brother?" Shuisheng laughed.

Wang Yugui smiled: "Really? Chunsheng also planned this?"

"When we got engaged, my brother told me privately that we brothers were getting engaged together and would come to your house to get married together in the future, hehe," Shuisheng laughed.

After hearing this, Mrs. Lu was very happy: "Oh, yes, yes, that's what mother meant!"

"Haha, Aunt Lu, you are so happy that you married two daughters at once." Wang Yugui laughed and looked at Wang: "But I'm afraid my mother won't be so happy to marry off two daughters at once!"

"Ha, isn't it?" Wang laughed after hearing this: "Just listening to you guys talking like this, I feel empty inside!"

"Mom, it's too early for us to get married." The eldest sister smiled and walked to Wang's side and sat down: "If mom is reluctant, it doesn't matter if we don't get married."

"Yes, let's just stay at home with mom." The second sister also smiled and sat next to Wang.

Mrs. Lu saw it and envied it again: "Ah, Aunt Wang, you are really good at giving birth. You gave birth to a good son and two good daughters!"

"I wish I had two more daughters!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this. Mrs. Lu also laughed and said, "The first month of the year is a good day. There are several families in our village getting married."

"Yes, the Lu family married a new daughter-in-law on the second day of the Chinese New Year," Shuisheng laughed.

The second sister frowned when she heard this: "What? Lu Dafu is so old, and he married a new wife?"

"Haha, second sister, you heard it wrong. It's not that Lu Dafu is getting married, it's that Lu Dafu has a new daughter-in-law." After hearing this, Mrs. Lu laughed and said, "It's his eldest son Lu Youde who got married a new daughter-in-law!"

"Ah? Didn't Lu Youde's wife just die not long ago? How could he marry a new wife so soon?" The eldest sister was surprised.

Mrs. Lu said, "It's been more than half a year. Lu Youde is the eldest son of Lu Dafu, so he must marry a new wife as soon as possible."

"The deceased Miss Gao was divorced and had no relationship with the Lu family!"

"Whose family is Lu Youde's new wife from?" Wang Yugui was curious.

Shuisheng laughed: "It is said that she is the youngest daughter of a landlord in the south village, Mr. Xi, and her name is Xi Jingui!"

"What? The youngest daughter of Master Xi of Nancun?" Wang Yugui almost laughed out loud when he heard this.

Damn it, isn’t that the Xi Laocai family? Oh, what kind of in-laws is this Lu Dafu looking for?

Shuisheng nodded: "Yes, Brother Yugui, do you know him?"

"From Nancun? Hey, brother, is he the loan shark?" The eldest sister hurriedly asked.

Wang Yugui smiled and nodded: "That should be it!"

Then he smiled at Shuisheng and said, "We know each other, so we've dealt with each other once!"

"Hey, why did Lu Dafu go to Nancun to help his son find a wife?"

"There is a matchmaker in our village who is the cousin of the aunt of Mr. Xi's wife. The Xi family asked the matchmaker to go to the rich Lu family to propose marriage," Shuisheng said.

After hearing this, Mrs. Lu also laughed and said, "Yes, originally, Mr. Lu didn't think much of the Xi family."

"I heard that although the Xi family is also a landlord in Nancun, it can't be compared with the rich Lu family."

"Later, I heard that Master Xi's little daughter was born in August and her name contained the word 'gold'."

"The fortune teller said that Miss Naxi is destined to be rich. Whoever marries her will bring wealth to his family."

"Only then did Lu Dafu agree to this marriage!"

Wow! Wang Yugui was speechless after hearing this. Lu Dafu was too superstitious. How could such a statement be true?

It is likely that Xi Laocai bribed the fortune teller with money, and the fortune teller helped him to deceive people so that his daughter could marry into a good family.

"Brother Shuisheng, what was the name of Miss Xi that you mentioned just now?" The second sister frowned slightly and asked Shuisheng

Shuisheng smiled and said, "Then Miss Xi's name is Xi Jingui. Jin is the gold that Lu Dafu likes the most."

"Gui means osmanthus, and Miss Naxi was born in August when the osmanthus flowers were fragrant, so she was named Jingui!"

Shuisheng added, "Osmanthus flowers are yellow, and Lu Dafu likes the color gold, so the front door of his house is painted with golden water!"

"Haha, this Lu Dafu is so funny!" The second sister laughed

The eldest sister also laughed: "Hey, it's his son who is getting married, not him, why are you only concerned about his liking and not asking whether his son likes it or not?"

"Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. Lu Youde must listen to his father." Mrs. Lu smiled after hearing this.

Shuisheng also laughed: "Lu Youde likes the same thing as his father, he also likes the golden feeling!"

Wow, Wang Yugui laughed so hard after hearing this, Lu Dafu and his son are really funny.

Wang Yugui didn’t know what Xi Laocai’s youngest daughter looked like because he had never seen her. However, Xi Laocai was ugly, so his daughter probably wouldn’t be pretty either.

Wang Yugui was just thinking about it when he heard Shuisheng say, "Mr. Naxi's two sons both have pointed faces and monkey cheeks, but I heard Miss Naxi is pretty good-looking!"

"Yes, if she was ugly, Lu Dafu would not agree to this marriage. Master Youde is also a very particular person." Lu smiled and said, "He told his father early in the morning that the new daughter-in-law cannot look worse than Miss Gao!"

So that's how it is. It seems that this Miss Xi might be an outlier in Mr. Xi's family. Maybe she looks like her mother.

Everyone ate melon seeds, snacks, drank tea and chatted, laughing constantly...
