Chapter 402 - Defeat Them
Although Xie Mangshan did not want his brother"s family to take advantage of him, he could not find a suitable candidate, so he could only nod and agree.
Fortunately, he could marry Jia Huan to Xie Pinggang.
It was much better than marrying Xie Qiao off.
When Xie Mangshan thought of that, he felt much better. Then, he asked, "Mother, do you know the birth characters of these two children?"
The old lady was stunned.
"Uh..." The old lady hesitated for a moment, "I can"t remember it either...."
When her second child"s children were born, he had secretly sent her letters. However at that time, he was a bandit. How would she care about such a small matter?
Even if she did care, it had been so many years. It was normal to forget it.
"How can you not remember such an important matter? If you had their birth characters, we could have done it directly. Now that it"s gone, if we want to make the wedding card, we"d have to find that brat and that girl to ask about it. If the two of them are not willing, then we won"t be able to marry them off, right?!" Xie Mangshan said a little angrily.
The name, birth characters, birth origin, and three generations had to be written clearly on the wedding card. If it could be finalized, they would also have to find a matchmaker to settle the case for them.
Now that they did not know the birth date, they could not bypa.s.s Xie Qiao and the rest and just write it simply, right?
If the wedding card was forged, they would have to go to jail.
Although the old lady was a grandmother, she could not just visit as she wished now.
She was very depressed.
If she had known that this day would come, she would have definitely remembered the birth date and birth character of those two children clearly!
"Even if they don"t agree, they have to! Look at Jia Huan. For the sake of her innocence, she almost broke her head. If she doesn"t marry him, who else can she marry? How about this? Let"s do it according to the order of age. First, let the Jia family bring people over. I will also step in and force him to make the wedding card!" The old lady said.
"That would be the best!" Xie Mangshan was overjoyed.
"But we have to wait. I fell badly these two days. Let me rest first." The old lady said, "We have to focus more on Xie Qiao. Let"s see if there is a chance for that family"s child to have more contact with her. If they"re willing, it will save us some trouble."
Xie Congshan could not wait for even a second.
After holding it in for a night, he immediately went to talk to the Cao family.
The Cao family"s daughter was only engaged to Xie Congshan"s eldest son. The girl was still young, so she had not gotten married yet.
The Cao family"s eldest son had originally planned to get married in spring in March, which would happen soon.
However, hearing what Xie Congshan said at that moment, the Cao family was moved.
Although the daughter-in-law they had decided on was a good one... the Xie family was of a high status. If the marriage happened, perhaps the family"s status would be elevated!
It was such a great opportunity, how could they give it up?
The Cao family was in a dilemma.
..
On the appointed day, Xie Qiao disguised as Mo Chusheng and waited at the Fortune Pavilion.
Not long after, a carriage came to pick her up and take her to look at the feng shui.
To be able to pay a deposit of 100 taels of gold, it should not be an ordinary family.
Sure enough, the carriage wobbled and finally stopped in a courtyard. The scenery in this courtyard was very beautiful. From the moment Xie Qiao entered, she looked around and did not see anything wrong.
There were two other people who followed her into the door.
One was a monk, and the other was an old Taoist master in his fifties or sixties. He had a horsetail whisk in one hand and a compa.s.s in the other, looking like a deity.
"Don"t worry, Taoist Master Mo… Our master will not make things difficult for you, whether you succeed or not," said the steward beside Xie Qiao. After he said that, he lowered his voice and said secretly, "To tell you the truth, our master asked us to look for a master. I heard from my relatives that you caught a powerful one earlier... So, we got you here immediately. You must defeat these two later!"
