"What did you buy just now?" Originally the two of them were together for most of the time, but then Yu Dong asked Lang to go and bring a pair of good quality quilts and a mattress. At the same time, she went to look around the town by herself. Lang didn't know why Yu Dong didn't come with her for this purchase.

  "It is something for Fang Chi, I can't tell you," said Yu Dong as she carefully tucked the package in her jacket. Then carefully put away the other parcels she had brought for her husbands. It would be really foolish if she only bought gifts for Fang Chi and completely forgot about her present three husbands.

  Lang nodded and then wiped the seat opposite to the one filled with gifts and put the quilts and mattress on it. "We should hurry back," said Lang after she closed the carriage behind them and limped slightly as she climbed up the front seat. "It's getting dark if we don't return home before the moonrise, then our husbands will start worrying about us."

  Yu Dong nodded, then she hopped on the front seat and tugged on the reins for the mule. Immediately the carriage lurched forward, and the two of them hurried back to their village.

  Since Yu Dong was going to bring the bride price to Fang Chi's house tomorrow morning. She couldn't go to his house right now to bring him the gift she had bought. She could only bring the items for the bride price inside her house in preparation. Once the items were moved, she handed the brown package to Lang and asked her to bring it to Fang Chi. Lang didn't know what was inside the boxes, but they seemed pretty heavy.

  "Should I give it directly to Fang Chi?" asked Lang before leaving. She didn't want to make any mistakes. What if it was something personal, and she ended up giving it to Grandma Fang? Wouldn't it be embarrassing?

  Yu Dong thought about the things in the packages and scratched her chin. It was indeed not suitable for Grandma Fang's eyes. "En, you should hand it to Fang Chi, and if he isn't at home, just bring it back. Thank you very much, sister Lang. I really appreciate it."

  "Pssh, what's there to thank?" Lang waved her hand, "It's something that I should be doing. You go ahead and give brothers their gifts. If possible, have Ruru tell Qian Qian that I will be back in a jiffy, that man can worry when he starts overthinking."

  "Got it," Yu Dong carefully picked the packages meant for her other three husbands and walked inside. Lang then departed for the Fang household. It wasn't that she was overly concerned over Zhu Qian worrying about her, but her worry was justified entirely. Fang Chi's house was right on the bottom of the far western mountain range; it took her half an hour with her slightly limp leg to reach.

  "Grandma Fang, are you in there?" Lang knocked on the door. Though the package wasn't to be handed to Grandma Fang, she couldn't just call Fang Chi. The latter was a newly engaged man and could no longer be as wishy-washy as he wanted.

  "Ah? Xiao Lang, what are you doing here?" Grandma Fang came out quickly, "Is there something the matter?"

  Matchmaker Si has already exchanged Yu Dong and Fang Chi's birth charts earlier today at noon. Now the two can be considered more or less engaged; of course, they can't see each other's faces (I just made it up because it's exciting this way) as it will be bad luck. Thus, Grandma Fang thought she would see Yu Dong in the morning when the latter would bring over the bride price. But someone from Yu Dong's family would be knocking on her door at such a late hour - did something happen? "Do you want to come in? Chi and I were just having dinner. Come sit with us."

  "Oh, I have already eaten a little something in the town," Though Lang wasn't looking down at Fang Chi's and Grandma Fang's meals, she has gotten used to eating the delicious meals cooked at the Yu house. Like it was said, it was easier to rise from poverty to riches, but it was challenging to go from wealth to poverty. Before living at the Yu house, Lang would have happily gulped the pickled vegetables and porridge but now - not so much. She was looking forward to going back home and eating what Yu Dong would cook for dinner. "I'm here for Fang Chi. Sister Yu has sent something for him. I hope I'm not being a bother by coming so late."

  "Oh, don't mention it!" though Grandma Fang was surprised that Yu Dong sent something for Fang Chi before delivery of the bride price. She didn't think much about it. After all, their marriage was already an example of forcefully stuffing a bridegroom in the bride's household. What can be more embarrassing than that? At least Yu Dong was following the norms by sending the gift in the hands of Lang instead of coming here herself. Grandma Fang hurriedly went back inside to call Fang Chi.

  At this moment, Fang Chi was setting the dishes on the table for dinner. His Grandma hurried over with an excited expression. She pushed him towards his bed as she babbled, "Hurry and put on a good shirt and a pair of pants! Lang came over, and she has brought something that Yu Dong sent for you! Hurry and wipe your face as well. Don't come outside like this, covered in soot and hair like a bird's nest! I will be so upset if you embarrass yourself like that. You are going to Yu Dong's household sooner or later; keep a clean image at least! Now you are more or less going to represent her household, so clean up! Hurry, hurry!"

  The stupefied Fang Chi, who was shoved in a bundle of freshly washed clothes "……"??? Who was the one who asked him to make dinner, to hone his skills? Now his Grandma was disdaining him for being covered in soot? Really?
