From the family treasure tree to build an eternal family

Chapter 84 The Big Wedding
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye it was the wedding day of Xu Xiaoniu and Chen Xiulian.

Given Xu Xiaoniu's status, this wedding banquet cannot be kept low-key.

The guests who came to Baihe Village to congratulate and give gifts lined up from the door of the Xu family's old house to the entrance of the village.

The gift-receiving and registration tables were arranged in a row.

"I'll give you a gift of ten taels of silver. I'll also give you another ten taels on behalf of my third brother."

Liu Hongwei presented a gift of 20 taels of silver and registered his own name and Liu Hongtu's name.

He felt that he was very generous. After all, who would give so much gift money to a fellow villager with whom they had little relationship?
"Five Grains Brewing Shop, Pan family, a gift of five hundred taels."

How many?

Everyone looked sideways at Pan Wenbin who came forward to pay his respects.

He registered the name of the Pan family, left 500 taels of silver, and left without even entering the door. His family had a conflict with Xu Xiaoyun's wine shop some time ago, and this gift money was considered as an apology. He hoped that Xu Xiaoniu would not target his family's business in the future.

Those who register here are not the real powerful and wealthy people.

At the gate, someone shouted:

"Director Jing of the Demon Suppression Division has sent someone to present nine hundred and ninety-nine taels of silver, wishing the two newlyweds a long and happy marriage."

"Head of the Forestry Supervisor, Baili, has sent a pair of jade and glass cups to wish the newlyweds happiness and happiness."

"County Magistrate Lord Lu sent a gift of century-old medicinal ginseng to wish the newlyweds a long and happy marriage. It just so happened that Lord Xu's official token had just been mailed back from the county office, so Lord Lu had it delivered along with it!"

Xu Xiaoniu got his official token.

The heavy gold-plated token was cold to the touch. One side was engraved with the words "Tonggu County" and the other side was engraved with the words "Military Officer". If you look closely, you can see three small words below "Military Officer": Xu Xiaoniu.

At this time, one of the four immortal officials in the county came in person: County Governor Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao's arrival gave Xu Xiaoniu enough face, but his high status made the others present much quieter and they dared not speak loudly.

"County Lieutenant Xu, today you are happily married, and I have come to offer my congratulations. I offer you a spirit stone, and I wish you two a son soon."

A spirit stone, this is the most valuable gift at present, far more precious than other people's gifts.

"Thank you, Lord Jiang! I am honored that you have come here in person."

Xu Xiaoniu was going to be a county lieutenant, and he had been learning polite words these days to avoid speaking vulgarly.

Afterwards, Xu Xiaoniu and Chen Xiulian toasted Jiang Hao with a glass of wedding wine. Jiang Hao did not stay long and said goodbye and left.

In the crowd, Chen Bajin, wearing a red wedding dress, smiled from ear to ear, revealing a mouth full of missing teeth.

He was given a breath of fresh air by the Qi and Blood Pill, but he still couldn't stand up and sat on the chair.

It was not until today that he realized that his son-in-law had such a great future, and that he himself had also gained great success.

He had been a farmer all his life, but unexpectedly, at the end of his life, he was promoted several levels thanks to the status of his daughter and son-in-law.

The wedding banquet was lively and went smoothly.

----

On the other side, Cangwu Mountain.

Jiang Hao returned to the Lu family manor on Cangwu Mountain from Baihe Village.

As soon as he entered the gate, he met his wife Lv Jinlan.

Lv Jinlan's face was cold and she asked in a questioning tone: "Where did you go?"

"Baihe Village, congratulations to County Magistrate Xu on his wedding."

Jiang Hao answered his wife's questions truthfully.

"Xu County Lieutenant? Is it worth your while to go there in person for just a military officer? Why not just send someone? What kind of gift did you bring?"

"..."

Jiang Hao originally planned to lie, but then he thought, he had his salary spirit stones, and besides, Lu Jinlan was just an ordinary person, so what was he afraid of?

"A spiritual stone."

"What? A military officer is getting married, and you're giving spirit stones as a gift? Are you crazy? Do you really think spirit stones are blown by the wind? You have so many spirit stones, why not store them in the family spirit stone vault?"

Lü Jinlan had been in a bad mood recently and couldn't stand Jiang Hao. When she learned that he had given her a spirit stone as a gift, she became even more furious and started to make a lot of noise.

Jiang Hao said impatiently: "Okay, stop talking, I'll give you whatever I want."

"What did you say? It's clearly your fault. You live and eat in my house, so why didn't you tell me when you used the spirit stones? You're bullying me because I'm an ordinary person and can't beat me, right..." As Lu Jinlan said this, she reached out to scratch Jiang Hao's face.

"That's enough, you bitch!"

With Jiang Hao's strength, it was impossible for him to be fooled by Lu Jinlan. He dodged and left without paying any attention to Lu Jinlan.

The two had been married for ten years, and Lv Jinlan's spoiled, willful and unreasonable character gradually emerged.

Lu Jinlan was a spoiled girl with a bad temper.

She pointed at Jiang Hao's back and said, "Just wait, I'm going to complain to Grandpa!"

At this time, a boy of seven or eight years old came over.

When Lu Jinlan saw the child, she suppressed her temper but still had a cold face.

"Mom, my great grandfather said I have no spiritual roots and wants to send me to practice martial arts. What kind of martial arts do you think I should learn?"

This is Lu Jinlan’s eldest son: Lu Xuanzhi.

She looked at her eldest son and felt depressed.

When Lv Jinlan and Jiang Hao got married, everyone had high expectations for their children. Lv Jinlan's parents and grandfather were all Qigong cultivators with spiritual roots, and Jiang Hao had three-element true spiritual roots, so there was a high probability that their offspring would have spiritual roots.

But Jiang Hao was unwilling to marry into the Lu family completely, so he made an agreement with the Lu family: the first child would have the surname Lu, the second would have the surname Jiang, the third would also have the surname Lu... and so on.

The eldest son, Lu Xuanzhi, was seven or eight years old, which is the time when spiritual roots appear, but he was found to have no spiritual roots.

This is the reason why Lv Jinlan is in a bad mood.

----

Jiang Hao walked into the study.

A five-year-old child is holding a brush and practicing calligraphy at the desk.

This is the second daughter who took Jiang Hao’s surname: Jiang Lin.

"Dad, did you quarrel with Mom again?"

Jiang Lin raised her head. She could hear her mother yelling and scolding outside the study even from the study.

"Well, don't be like your mother in the future. Be a gentle girl."

Jiang Hao said softly, then sat next to Jiang Lin and checked the calligraphy she had just written.

After a while, Lv Jinlan walked into the study. She calmed down and said, "Jiang Hao, come with me."

"What?"

Jiang Hao didn't move.

Seeing the child present, Lv Jinlan leaned over and whispered something in Jiang Hao's ear.

"..."

Jiang Hao was speechless because Lu Jinlan asked him to have a baby.

He was actually not very willing to do so. After spending a long time with Lu Jinlan, his little bit of good impression of her was worn away by her personality.

He really had no feelings for Lu Jinlan when he married her. He was purely attracted by the spiritual land of Lu's manor.

He has three kinds of true spiritual roots and is also an immortal official, with the potential to build a foundation!

He compromised in order to build his foundation, but life in the Lu family was too depressing, especially facing a mortal wife with a bad temper.

This is also why he personally sent a spirit stone to Xu Xiaoniu as a gift.

On the one hand, Xu Xiaoniu has a connection with the great cultivator who has established his foundation in the county city. Making friends with Xu Xiaoniu might give you a chance to become an immortal.

On the other hand, Jiang Hao needs his own power and he cannot always rely on the Lu family.

Now that he has two children, this bad fate is enough and he doesn't want to have any more.

"go!"

Lü Jinlan dragged Jiang Hao away without a care in the world. Her family had high hopes for her, and they knew she had to give birth to a child with spiritual roots.

Jiang Hao compromised and did not refuse.

I will not be able to report to the Lu family unless I give birth to a child with spiritual roots.
