Chapter 393 - 394: Brother An has prepared quite a few things

After Yang Chuxia finished speaking, Ye Zi’an was stunned. What kind of betrothal gift was this?

"Is there a problem?" Yang Chuxia asked with a provocative lift of her eyebrows after finishing her sentence. "If it’s too difficult, I can reluctantly give up on the last two items."

Ye Zi’an didn’t answer immediately, but thought carefully before a flash of confident light appeared in the corner of his eyes, and he said, "Of course, if that’s what Xiaxia wants, I’ll find it for her even if I have to run around the entire Great Zhou."

Seeing Ye Zi’an so determined and confident, Yang Chuxia began to doubt if he could really do it. In fact, she just wanted to make a joke with her last statement, and what she really wanted to say was a ring.

But seeing this kid so confident, did he have a good idea already? It was such a short time. Okay, Yang Chuxia was now genuinely curious, so she determinedly said, "Very well, if you have no problem, then I’ll be waiting at home."

She was eager to see what kind of surprise Brother An would give her, but she thought to herself that it wouldn’t matter if he couldn’t prepare it, since it wasn’t what she originally wanted to say.

"Yes, Xiaxia, just wait at home," Ye Zi’an said earnestly.

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, the weather was clear.

Yang Chuxia’s home began to bustle early from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. with Ms.Wang calling Old Aunt-in-law Gen and Land Officer’s wife to help. Ms.Liu also came to help, and upon seeing her, Ms.Wang didn’t say much. In fact, Ms.Wang never liked Ms.Liu, mainly because of the time she drugged Yang Chuxia. Since then, Ms.Wang had despised her and didn’t give her a good look even last time when they were hosting guests at their home.

However, this time Ms.Wang gave Ms.Liu a smile, thinking that today was Xiaxia’s good day, and as a mother, she couldn’t keep a straight face.

So she cheerfully asked Ms.Liu and others to help wash things, then went into the house to grab some sweets for the children who had come along.

Yang Dachuan, on the other hand, went with Uncle Niu and a few others to borrow some tables and chairs from the village.

As for Uncle Cai, he went to Ye Zi’an’s home early, preparing to carry the betrothal gifts at the time of 8 a.m., which was calculated by the half immortal he sought in town.

Ye Zi’an had already neatly wrapped things in red paper, putting them in the boxes.

Uncle Cai even found some young men and those with good fortune in the village to help carry the betrothal gifts.

Looking at the boxes on the ground, they thought in their hearts, "My goodness, we didn’t realize Brother An had so much money. Just by the number of boxes on the ground, there are five or six, not to mention baskets full of meat, fish, sweets, and tobacco. This must amount to several dozen taels."

And they had clearly seen that a box full of women’s clothes was yet to be covered when they arrived. Besides that, on the table was a small wooden box that Ye Zi’an carried himself. They recognized it as the jewelry box sold in Xiaxia’s family shop, guessing that there must be something good inside it.

Brother An had really gone all out to secure this engagement.

"Brother An, these things would be enough to marry a wife in the town," one young man from the village said.

Hearing this, Ye Zi’an’s mouth twitched faintly, and after a while, he said, "The girls in the town are no match for Xiaxia."

This sentence left the young man speechless.

Uncle Cai laughed and said, "Alright, alright, let’s load up the things and get ready to go."

Just then, Yang Qingrui and Yang Qingtong, both panting, ran over and shouted as they ran, "Brother Zi’an, something’s wrong, Brother Zi’an, something’s wrong!"
