Chapter 109 Choosing an Auspicious Day for a Wedding

The test results were unexpectedly good, showing significant improvement over the previous two tests. This news thrilled the villagers in both villages.

After the test, it was a rest day. Except for those who were assigned to duty, everyone else got a day off as required.

Ruan Xiaojun was taking a rare break at home. The night before, Ruan Donghua had already arranged for everyone to have lunch together today, and she had also invited the Jin family, including Dr. Liu.

Originally, this was a marriage between the Ruan and Jin families, and it was inappropriate for Doctor Liu, an outsider, to be present. However, since Master Wuwei and Liu Ziyun were also guests, it seemed that adding Doctor Liu would not make a difference.

Ruan Mumu said that Dr. Liu was an important business partner of hers, so she was here to be a witness!

Everyone took this meal very seriously. Granny Yu and Granny Yu, who were in charge of cooking, did their best to prepare an exceptionally sumptuous lunch for everyone.

"Father-in-laws, we have specially invited you here today mainly to discuss Xiaojun and Jinhua's marriage."

I was originally thinking of asking a matchmaker to come and inquire in person, but since we see each other every day, I think it would be better for us to sit down and discuss it directly.

It's not that I don't care about the children, it's just that I've been too busy lately, please forgive me.

"Today, in front of our important guests, let them be our witnesses." After sitting down, Chen Donghua went straight to the topic of Ruan Xiaojun and Jin Hua's wedding.

Upon hearing Chen Donghua's words, Jin Erniu quickly said, "Xiaojun's mother, we are just farmers, we don't need to be so particular."

Doctor Liu here is quite literate; let him help us choose an auspicious date so the two children can get married directly.

Ruan Mumu quickly said, "Uncle Jin, Aunt Jin, that's true, but our family certainly can't treat people so casually!"

The proper etiquette must still be observed, and the necessary gifts for Sister Jinhua must be provided.

Ruan Xiaojun chimed in, "Uncle Jin, Aunt Jin, I will definitely not let Jinhua suffer any injustice."

Then he said to Doctor Liu, "Doctor Liu, could you please help me find an auspicious day soon?"

Doctor Liu was already flipping through the almanac, page by page.

The Master of Nothingness was not idle either; he was also counting on his fingers the auspicious days to come.

"September 18th," Doctor Liu and Master Wuwei announced the date simultaneously.

When the two people announced the date at the same time, everyone present immediately felt that it must be a very auspicious day.

Considering that today is already the first day of the ninth lunar month, there are still more than ten days to prepare, which is enough.

"September 18th," the Jin couple, Chen Donghua, and Old Man and Old Woman Chen all said in unison.

Although Ruan Xiaojun and Jin Hua did not speak, seeing that both families had agreed to the date, they looked at each other, blushed, and lowered their heads, secretly pleased with themselves.

"Sister, you're about to become Xiaojun's bride, aren't you especially happy?" Jin Guang sat next to Jin Hua, tugged at Jin Hua who was secretly smiling with her head down, and asked in a low voice.

When Jin Hua heard her younger brother's question, her face turned even redder. She turned to look at him, glared at him, and then lowered her head again.

Jin Guang wasn't angry. Instead, he chuckled and turned to Ruan Xiaojun, saying seriously, "Brother Xiaojun, you must treat my sister well, or I won't forgive you."

Ruan Xiaojun looked at Jin Guang and assured him, "I promise I will treat her well, and you won't have a chance to make a move."

"Sister Jinhua, let's go to the county town today! I'll take you to buy wedding supplies, and we'll stay in the county town tonight."

"Mom, why don't you go with Aunt Jin? What do you say?"

Ruan Mumu looked at Jin Hua, then at her own mother and Jin Hua's mother, Yang Fang.

"Mumu, isn't this unnecessary? We've already received twenty taels of betrothal money from your family," Yang Fang refused.

Upon hearing Yang Fang's words, Chen Donghua's expression immediately turned displeased. She said, "That old woman took all of Jin Hua's betrothal gifts back then. It's only right that we buy some wedding items for Jin Hua!"

I don’t want to make my daughter-in-law suffer. You don’t care about her, but I do!

"Mother-in-law, why don't you come with us? You can also pick out some everyday items for Jinhua."

When Yang Fang heard what Chen Donghua said, she thought that her daughter was about to get married and it would be unreasonable not to give her anything. Since her future mother-in-law had said so, she decided to go with her.

I'll try my best to help them more in the future.

So he nodded obediently.

"By the way, Uncle Jin, Aunt Jin, since we're all going to become family, there's something I want to tell you in advance," Ruan Mumu said.

Upon hearing this, Jin Erniu and Yang Fang felt a pang of anxiety, unsure of what Ruan Mumu meant or whether it was a good or bad thing.

“We’ve recently built a few houses near Qingshan, haven’t we? When they’re finished, you can choose one as a betrothal gift from my elder brother to Sister Jinhua,” Ruan Mumu said.

When Jin Erniu and Yang Fang heard about this, they almost thought Ruan Mumu was going to make some unreasonable demands, and they secretly blushed a little for their narrow-mindedness earlier.

Jin Erniu quickly refused, saying, "No, no, Mumu, Uncle Jin knows you mean well, but we really can't accept this."

Ruan Mumu was not surprised by their refusal, as their simple-mindedness made it impossible for them to accept such a valuable gift.

"Uncle Jin, since it's a gift for Sister Jin, why don't you want to stay there? Is it because you think it's not as comfortable as the Ruan family's place?"

"It's not impossible for me to move in with Sister Jinhua, but my older brother's yard might not be big enough. We might have to rebuild another building next to it," Ruan Mumu said with a grin.

Yang Fang became a little anxious upon hearing this and said urgently, "Mu Mu, this... Aunt Jin didn't mean that!"

“Aunt Jin, if you haven’t arranged a place for her to stay, Sister Jinhua won’t be able to feel at ease marrying into our family, right?” Ruan Mumu said, looking at Jinhua, hoping she would speak up and persuade her parents.

Jin Hua knew Ruan Mumu meant well, but it was indeed as Ruan Mumu said: her parents were still homeless. Even though she had married into the Ruan family, she would always think about her parents.

"Mother, since Mumu has said so, you shouldn't refuse. Your daughter will definitely try her best to be filial to her mother-in-law and love her younger brother and sister-in-law in the future," Jinhua said softly to Yang Fang.

Jin Erniu and Yang Fang had no choice but to agree in the end.

Seeing his parents nod, Jin Guang added, "Sister, I will definitely work hard to learn medicine from my master in the future, and we will build a big house when we make money."

We'll consider the house there temporarily borrowed; my brother will definitely keep his word.

Upon hearing Jin Guang's words, Jin Hua reached out and patted his head.

“Alright, we should head to the county town now…” Ruan Mumu said.
