Chapter 1410: Wedding Day
ut because they wanted to bring her into the fold and then slowly settle scores.In her heart, she had always been an enemy of the Ye family. As for her marriage to Ye Er, she had never given it much t...The housekeeper thought that betrothing a daughter was a major life event, and it shouldn't be so hasty.
But Ye Er shook her head resolutely this time. "There's no need to count the days, today is a good day. The betrothal ceremony can be finished within an hour, and you must be back in an hour. After that, there are more important things than betrothal for you to attend to. Go now."
"!"
How could today possibly be a good day
Strangely enough, today is the fifth of May, which is a 'bad day' in the 'evil month'.
It is most taboo to hold celebrations on this day. How can the adults get away with saying such blatant lies
The steward wanted to say something more, but seeing the firmness in their elders' expressions, he knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade them today, they would not change their minds.
Then he asked, "Sir, is the letter of appointment to be written by your own hand"
The house manager had a deep suspicion that their masters might have forgotten about the betrothal contract. Could it be that they truly didn't know that, besides the matchmaker and dowry, a betrothal contract was also necessary when going to propose
As expected, the butler's guess was mostly right. After the butler finished speaking, Ye Er frowned. He really hadn't thought of this step about the letter of appointment.
He also wanted a traditional wedding with three books and six rituals, ten miles of red decorations, a phoenix crown, an eight-palanquin procession, a proper introduction by matchmakers, and to marry his beloved daughter home in a grand ceremony. However, after the ruckus caused by that couple from the Anle Hou Mansion, many things had to be simplified, or even skipped entirely.
After a moment of contemplation, Ye Er said to the steward, "Prepare ink and paper."
This kind of employment contract should have been completed by the elders of the Ye family, but now that their Ye family has no elders, he can only do it himself.
The housekeeper turned and went to prepare ink and brushes, while Xiao Liang went to help Ye Er up.
Ye Er's wound couldn't be bumped or touched, so whenever he moved, Xiao Liang would be on edge, fearing something might go wrong.
Fortunately, Ye Er remained calm throughout the drafting of the employment contract and there were no unexpected issues.
Deliver the prepared employment contract to the steward and tell him to return as quickly as possible.
Butler: "..."
This is the first time he has ever seen someone who comes to a job interview like they're on a run.
However, since this was their boss's request, he could only quickly go about it.
After the steward left with the marriage certificate, Xiaoliang wanted to help Ye Er back to bed. But before his hand could touch his master's arm, he saw his master lay down another piece of paper and continue writing.
What are the adults writing about again
Curiosity drove him to steal a few glances.
Seeing the characters written by their elders, a smile resembling that of a doting aunt couldn't help but creep onto his lips.
It turns out they're writing the marriage certificate!
Well, the employment contract is done now, so it's time to write the marriage certificate.
It's just a bit strange, three books and six rituals, the letter of betrothal is written, logically speaking even if it has to be written it should write the letter of courtesy and welcoming letter first.
Why are they writing the marriage contract first
However, he didn't say anything. He just kept stealing glances at her silently.
I have to admit, their handwriting is pretty nice.
A union of two families, a single hall for the covenant.
A match made in heaven, destined to be together.
Look at the peach blossoms today, blooming brilliantly. It's a day suitable for both love and home.
< The melons and gourds are abundant this year, and the people are prosperous and happy. >
With the solemn vow of our white hair, I write this letter on auspicious paper.
To gather the red leaves of the alliance, and record the love poem.
This certificate.
Xiaoliang watched his own father finally put pen to paper, a slight ache in his heart. Writing his own marriage certificate wasn't actually a good thing.
When there are elders in a family, it's unlikely that one would have to write their own wedding and engagement letters.
Ye Er put down her pen and picked up the marriage certificate. From the corner of her eye, she saw Xiao Liang's complicated expression, and she narrowed her eyes slightly, "What's this"
His voice brought Xiao Liang back to his senses. He shook his head hastily, "It's nothing, it's nothing. Sir, do you still need to continue writing the letter of greetings and welcoming letter"
"It's not necessary."
