The two parties sat down and laughed, and everyone toasted to each other, mostly saying thank you.

After that, they talked about Kang Xiucai going out to study, and also about which academy was better in Fucheng. He Jiuniang asked Gou'er: "Mr. Kang is going to Fucheng to study, are you going?" "

The dog thought for a while and replied: "I will go if the brothers go!"

"The relationship between this child and his brothers is really good!"

Ms. Chen sincerely lamented that the children in her family were also close to each other, but that was because they were brothers from the same father and mother, and her second oldest child had not yet been married, so she was always worried.

When someone praised the children in the family for their good relationship, Mrs. Sun was naturally the happiest and said: "Everything is going well with the family. Only when the children have a good relationship can the family become more and more prosperous! Your family is full of books. As for the family background, the children are all brothers and sisters. It will be even more exciting when Mr. Kang gets married in two years and gives birth to some fat grandchildren for the Kang sisters!"

But speaking of Mrs. Chen's heart, she immediately said to Ms. Sun: "Isn't that right? My Zhi'er has been afraid to kiss her because of her poor health these years, for fear of delaying her girl. Now that she is in good health, I So I hurriedly arranged a marriage for him. We just got engaged not long ago and plan to get married by the end of the year."

As Chen spoke, she looked at He Jiuniang and remembered that she had misunderstood He Jiuniang and her son. I was really embarrassed about the relationship. Fortunately, I didn’t tell the truth at the time, otherwise it would have been embarrassing.

Especially now that Lu Baichuan is back, if she had really invited the matchmaker to come to her house to arrange a marriage, she would have done something bad with good intentions.

He Jiuniang really didn't know about this, so she didn't feel the embarrassment in Chen's eyes. She was still thinking about things with Lu Baichuan, and she was obviously a little absent-minded.

Mrs. Sun didn’t notice, and talked to Mrs. Chen with a smile: “Oh, the girl from that family is so lucky! Mr. Kang is so talented, he will definitely go to high school, and his future will be bright!”

Ms. Chen liked hearing this, and the two old sisters felt as if they had met each other late, and they kept chatting.

Several men chatted about national affairs and the current situation together, drinking a drink when they talked about happiness, and drank a drink when they talked about worries.

Of course, the representative of the Lu family in drinking is Old Man Lu. Lu Baichuan has really not had a drop of alcohol since the last time he got drunk.

I have no intention of quitting drinking, but I feel that the relationship with my wife is a bit awkward now. She has not fully accepted myself, and it is really difficult for her to take care of me all the time.

This will ruin your goodwill.

Just as we were talking happily, a boy came outside to report that someone from the Tang family was here.

The Tang family is from Kang Xiucai's fiancée's side. Is it possible that there is something urgent that comes here at this time?

Ms. Chen said sorry to everyone at the table and stood up to walk out. Kang Xiucai also stood up. After all, he was coming from his fiancée's family, so he couldn't just ignore everything.

The boy came close to his ear and whispered: "Sir, this person is not evil!"

Kang Xiucai asked him: "What do you mean?"

"A large group of people came from the other side, carrying several big boxes. The younger one looked carefully. It seems that they were gifts from our family. Now that they have brought them here, they are not trying to break off the engagement, right?"

The servant didn’t dare to say this to Mrs. Chen, because Mrs. Chen had always been very concerned about Kang Xiucai’s marriage. This marriage was finally settled with great difficulty. Mrs. Chen didn’t want to see anything go wrong. .

Ms. Chen was walking in front and heard them muttering behind her, so she couldn't help but urge: "Go faster, don't keep people waiting."

Kang Xiucai immediately said: "Yes, mother."

As he said that, he speeded up and followed.

A nanny came to the Tang family. This person was known to Mrs. Chen and was an old slave who served Mrs. Tang.

The situation of the Tang family is similar to that of the Kang family. The old scholar Tang has been teaching in the county for many years and still has some influence. It can be considered that the two parties are well matched.

It was originally a good marriage, and both parents were very satisfied, but today, the gifts given by the previous engagement were sent back.

The other party’s meaning is self-evident.

When Mrs. Chen saw the boxes behind Nanny Tang, she instantly understood what she meant.

“Mommy, what do you mean?”

Although she was a little angry, Mrs. Chen still showed a standard smile. As the mother of a scholar, she has this ability. Still have to have it.

Aunt Tang bowed to Mrs. Chen very sadly, with tears on her face when she stood up.

"Madam, it's our Tang family that can't help you!"

"Oh, grandma, what happened? You should tell me!"< br />
Aunt Tang wiped her tears as she spoke, but Ms. Chen was extremely anxious.

"My young lady is lucky enough to marry Mr. Kang. We, the master and my wife, are very happy and are looking forward to a happy event at the end of the year. But I didn't expect that my young lady was so unlucky that she couldn't afford to fall ill a few days ago. Countless doctors said that I am a young lady and her life is not long. My master did not want to drag down the Kang family, so he asked the old slave to bring the things back and cancel the marriage between the two families."

After saying that, Nanny Tang also handed over a letter with three words written on the cover: Letter of withdrawal from the marriage.
