Chapter 545 [Old 9 Gate 24]
The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds and brought a touch of warmth to the whole city. At this time, Zhang Qishan was ready. He asked Adjutant Zhang to lead a group of people to the Jie Mansion to propose marriage.
When the sixty-four boxes of betrothal gifts were carried into the Jie Mansion, the whole city of Changsha was in an uproar. People stopped to watch and were all amazed. These boxes were filled with various precious gifts, including gold, silver, jewelry, silk, satin, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc. Each piece was a priceless treasure.
The people were shocked by Zhang Dafoye's wealth. Such a generous betrothal gift made people sigh. Some people even thought that the scale and luxury of this betrothal gift exceeded the dowry of ordinary girls. They speculated how rich Zhang Dafoye was to be able to take out so many precious gifts to marry his wife.
However, for those women who once admired Zhang Qishan, this moment was undoubtedly a heartbreaking moment.
Although Zhang Qishan has remained unmarried for many years, many people have tried to express their love to him and strive to become his wife, but have never been able to do so.
Therefore, they always had hope in their hearts, looking forward to getting Zhang Qishan's favor one day.
But what was unexpected was that Zhang Qishan eventually chose the eldest daughter of the Li family as his fiancée.
For those who have never seen Jie Youyou, they can't help but question whether she is really worthy of Zhang Qishan.
After all, the Xie family was just a merchant family, and in ancient society, merchants had a relatively low status. Zhang Qishan was an official who served as the defense officer of Changsha and had a prominent status.
Such a marriage does not seem to conform to the traditional concept of being well-matched, which makes it difficult to understand.
Those who have met Jie Youyou in person all think that Zhang Qishan is really marrying up to Jie Youyou. After all, Youyou is like a blooming flower, beautiful and charming, while Zhang Qishan is just an inconspicuous pile of cow dung. He has no idea about women's hearts, let alone romance. How can a vulgar man like him be a match for such a beautiful woman like Youyou? It's just a waste of talent!
Jiuye Jie was very satisfied with the generous betrothal gift sent by Zhang Qishan, because it meant that the husband's family attached great importance to the woman. However, what they did not expect was that Zhang Qishan did such an outstanding job.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was the day of Youyou and Zhang Qishan's wedding.
At this joyous moment, Yin Xinyue couldn't help but sigh: "Youyou, I didn't expect you to get married so soon! Master Buddha is really quick! Alas, now you have become the first one among the three of us to get married."
Lin Yueyue, who was standing by, also echoed, "Yes, Youyou, you must be happy! If the Buddha dares to bully you, remember to tell us and we will help you vent your anger."
Hearing the blessings from her friends, Youyou responded gratefully: "Thank you! But, Yueyue, when will your Chenpi marry you?"
Lin Yueyue smiled and replied, "It will be soon. My brother has already agreed. It shouldn't be too long."
At this time, Yin Xinyue suddenly complained: "You two are really enough. One is getting married today, and the other is about to get married, but I am the only one still single! I don't even have a suitor, but you always show your love in front of me. Don't you know that I haven't found my home yet?" There was a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, but more of it was teasing.
Everyone laughed after hearing this, and the atmosphere became relaxed and happy. At this wonderful moment, everyone was full of joy and anticipation.
