From the end to the other world

On the second day, Qin Luochuan was going to the Hanlin Academy, and he got up very early, but when he passed by the courtyard where Shang Minghe lived, he saw that Shang Minghe was already up and exercising.

Qin Luochuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that it was normal for Shang Minghe to get used to getting up early to practice in the military camp these years, so he invited, "Let's have breakfast together?"

When he was still some distance away from the entrance of the courtyard, Shang Minghe heard footsteps, and replied: "Okay, wait for me a moment, I'll go change my clothes."

He said that for a moment, it was really a moment. In Qin Luochuan's senses, Shang Minghe just entered the room and walked around in circles before coming out. Not only did he change his clothes, but even his hair was tied up again, and his face was scrubbed. refreshing.

The two walked to the side hall where they ate together, and Tingyu had already filled the porridge that Qin Luochuan wanted to drink to dry, and when he saw Shang Minghe coming in together, he hurriedly filled another bowl.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room except Ting Yu and another maid, Shang Minghe couldn't help being stunned, and asked, "Where is Qingyue?"

"It's still early," Qin Luochuan said very naturally, "Let him sleep more."

If nothing happened to the merchant before, and he hadn't left the capital, Shang Qingyue should indeed still be sleeping at this time, but as far as Shang Ming and himself knew, no matter if it was a woman or a pair of children, no husband would have woken up. The truth of sleeping in bed.

But looking at Qin Luochuan's expression, he didn't seem to feel that there was anything wrong with it, and seeing that the maid had only served Qin Luochuan porridge just now, when serving him the porridge, she went to the side to take a new bowl, obviously this kind of thing has become a habit .

When Shang Qingyue sent him a letter before, saying that her husband was very good, he was only dubious. After all, Shang Qingyue was a younger brother, and in Shang Minghe's eyes, it was right for her brother-in-law to treat him well.

But from his observation of the relationship between the two yesterday and the incident just now, Shang Minghe understood that his brother was not lying, and that his brother-in-law treated him so well that he was surprised.

Qin Luochuan didn't know that he had so many thoughts in his mind. After breakfast, he ordered Ting Yu to say: "When Qingyue wakes up, you and Suxue go to Zhou's house."

"Yes." Ting Yu replied respectfully, and didn't ask what to do, anyway, the left and right have nothing to do with uncle, and just listen to the master's arrangement when the time comes.

Qin Luochuan got up a little late today, and waited for a while at Shang Minghe's place. If he didn't go out, he would be late for the Imperial Academy.

So after two or three bites of breakfast, he pleaded guilty to Shang Minghe and left.

It wasn't until Shang Minghe finished his breakfast and drank two more cups of tea that Shang Qingyue walked into the side hall with Xiaotuanzi in his arms.

Like Qin Luochuan, he also didn't forget to go to Zhou's house to deliver a message. As soon as he entered the door, he began to order Ting Yu and Su Xue. Let Shang Qingyue eat with peace of mind.

Sure enough, as Shang Qingyue said yesterday, after Suxue and Tingyu came back from Zhou's house, they said that Zhou Xun asked Shang Minghe to go to Tingyun Building to find him.

Yesterday Shang Qingyue deliberately concealed the name of the tea house, but the two maids didn't know it, so they said it directly when they answered.

Shang Minghe was a little surprised when he heard the words, especially when he saw his younger brother's narrow eyes, he said helplessly, "I'll change my clothes and go out."

The clothes on his body were changed before dinner, but he had to dress neatly to meet Zhou Xun, and he had exercised again in the morning, so he just wiped off his sweat casually and didn't have time to wash it off.

Shang Minghe went out after washing up, it wasn't too late, but he didn't come back until noon.

Forget it, after all, he and Zhou Xun haven't seen each other for many years, so it's normal for him to not finish talking for a while.

But until the evening, Qin Luochuan came back from work, but Shang Minghe still didn't return.

If the boy who sent him to the teahouse hadn't come back in the afternoon, and said that Shang Minghe had something to do and came back for dinner in the evening, Shang Qingyue would have sent someone out to look for him.

Shang Qingyue cooks the dinner herself, and it's not easy for him to cook a lot of dishes before people come back, so he can only wait dryly.

It wasn't until it was dark that the sound of horseshoes came from the door, and then the boy guarding the door said that uncle had returned.

When Shang Minghe went out, he rode in the family's carriage, but in the afternoon he asked the boy to come back first, and now he came back on a horse. Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue were afraid that something might happen, so they rushed out to greet him.

Just after walking out of the main hall, she saw Shang Minghe holding a wild goose with its wings and feet tied up in one hand. Shang Qingyue thought of something and asked, "This is it?"

"Dayan," Shang Ming said peacefully, "I'll prepare the other things tomorrow, and I'll go to Zhou's house to make an appointment the day after tomorrow."

Shang Qingyue guessed that her brother would definitely discuss the marriage contract when he went to see Brother Xun, but she didn't expect to go to hire him the day after tomorrow, so she couldn't help blurting out: "So anxious?"

Shang Minghe felt helpless when he heard the words, "I can only stay in the capital for one month."

If you look at it this way, you really don't need to be in a hurry. Yesterday and today have already been there for two days, and the day after tomorrow, after getting an appointment and getting married, there is always some time to come out and prepare.

These things can be discussed after the meal. After the boy took the wild geese to the backyard to raise, Shang Qingyue asked Shang Minghe to wash up first, while she went to prepare meals.

After eating, the three of them discussed what to prepare tomorrow in the side hall.

In just one day, although I can't prepare too many tricks, at least there should be some.

Before Qin Luochuan married Shang Qingyue, Qin Luochuan had to ask the matchmaker what dowry gift he needed to prepare.

Now that Qin Luochuan has been in the Imperial Academy for so long, the specifications and procedures of various ceremonies are clear, let alone a small wedding.

Immediately, he made a list of the betrothal gifts according to the specifications that Shang Minghe wanted, and he made a list of the things needed in duplicate, one for Shang Ming and one for Shang Qingyue.

After receiving the list, Shang Qingyue said, "I have seafood at home, as well as coconuts. You don't need to buy these two."

These two things are the most difficult to prepare on the list, because the capital is far from the sea, and the people in the capital don't seem to like these dry goods very much, so it's not easy to gather these things at once, and the seafood on Qin Luochuan's list is still eight Mode.

Seeing that both of them were puzzled, Shang Qingyue didn't hide it, and explained: "I know that my brother is coming back, and I thought it was going to be used anyway. I had someone prepare these a month ago, and I just took them a few days ago. Collect the last one."

Dried seafood is only available in high-standard betrothal gifts. At first, he just thought that after Shang Minghe came back, the ones he bought in a hurry might not be of good quality, so it would not be good to send them to the Zhou family. .

After solving the two most difficult problems, the other things became much more convenient, and the three of them divided them again, which ones Shang Ming and Tomorrow would take people to buy in person, and which ones could be let the servants run errands.

Even the order of which one to buy first and which store to go to buy is set.

After sorting it out, Shang Minghe thanked Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue earnestly. Although he is a biological brother, he is the elder brother. According to common sense, when we get married, there is no way to let the married younger brother and brother-in-law come. Reason to worry about it.

But because their parents had passed away, and he was not in the capital all year round, if Shang Qingyue and Qin Luochuan didn't worry about him, the time was so tight that it would be difficult for him to prepare comprehensively by himself.

After thanking him, Shang Minghe took out another stack of bank notes, divided half of it and handed it to Shang Qingyue.

Shang Qingyue blurted out, "Where did you get the money?"

"I also went to Wu Zhou's place today," Shang Minghe couldn't laugh or cry, "This is the money the two shops have earned in the past few years."

Since it was earned in the shop, Shang Qingyue took it with peace of mind. Anyway, no matter whether it is preparing for the dowry or getting married, the money will be used, and even if it is not used up, it will not be too late to return it to her brother.

Shang Minghe and Zhou Xun have met before, so the appointment is just a necessary process, and they will definitely get married before Shang Minghe leaves Beijing.

Therefore, marriage matters also need to be prepared.

Shang Qingyue asked: "Where is brother going to worship?"

Shang Minghe said helplessly, "Didn't you guess everything?"

Shang Qingyue smiled slyly, "I don't know if I guessed it right."

"Just put it where we used to live." Shang Ming agreed.

Shang Qingyue was kind, "Then I'll take Suxue and the others to have a look the day after tomorrow, and arrange everything that can be arranged."

Qin Luochuan and his family don't have many servants, and the people in each position are just right, Shang Minghe asked worriedly: "Are the people on your side busy?"

"Don't worry," Shang Qingyue smiled. Both he and her husband are used to doing many things by themselves instead of relying on maidservants. Besides, when they were in Chengjia Village, they had to work in the fields. Well, so he said, "As long as the nanny stays with Xiaotuanzi, it doesn't matter if everyone else goes to work in the old house."

The old house he was talking about was naturally the place where the businessmen lived when there was no accident.

Speaking of this, Shang Qingyue couldn't help but glance at Qin Luochuan, who was a little uncomfortable.

In the past few years, Qin Luochuan didn't promise him many things, but up to now, he has done everything else, except for the old house.

At the beginning, Qin Luochuan said that after arriving in the capital, he would buy the place where he used to live and give it to him.

After arriving in the capital, Qin Luochuan indeed went to inquire immediately, but the news he got was that the other party did not sell it.

After searching for a long time, I found out that Zhou Xun bought the house.

Qin Luochuan came back and discussed with Shang Qingyue for a while, then decided to give up.

After accepting the levy, the application period came. Shang Ming and here were in a hurry, so they got together.

How deep is Zhou Xun's obsession with Shang Minghe? Zhou's family members all know that the business accidents in the past few years failed to break his mind, and they have long since let him go.

Besides, once they got married, Zhou Xun would definitely go to Rongcheng with Shang Minghe, and the Zhou family also wanted to see how Shang Minghe would treat Zhou Xun after they got married, so after the two families discussed it, they set the wedding date on April [-]th.
