Chapter 54: Lu Cheng Yu's Wedding Ceremony

Lu Lin and Chen Xiao Mi both had their minds set on the big commercial house with residence area in the back, they paid the money with alacrity. The landlord appreciated how efficient they were, he and his family were in a rush to move, so he decided to give the furniture and some commodity to the couple for free.

Chen Xiao Mi wandered around in the big yard, thrilled, he said to Lu Lin, "This is amazing! Look how big our yard is!"

Lu Lin smiled at Chen Xiao Mi in a doting manner. As a mater of fact, this yard wasn't particularly big in a lot of wealthy families' standard. It was also one of the reasons why this place had been on the market for a while, wealthy families all said it wasn't spacious enough for their big family.

Take Councilor Yang for an example, there were four generations living in his manor. His parents, wife, concubines, kids, grandkids! Of course this place was too small for him and his family. But in Lu Lin and Chen Xiao Mi's case, there were only four people in their family, of course it was more than enough.

Chen Xiao Mi went to check the commodity the landlord left for them. There were some fabric, some oil and flour, Chen Xiao Mi did some quick math, he was stoked to find the commodity was worth more than 11 taels of silver.

The young couple decided to not move in for a while, they decided to keep this whole thing a secret, they didn't want to draw any attention to themselves. A commercial house with residence area in town was too conspicuous.

The two came up with an excuse, they would just say they were just here to do some house sitting for the owner if someone asked them.

On the other hand, Lu Cheng Yu and Li Fang Yue's wedding day was just around the corner.

The villagers all had their eyes on the wedding, they were so curious to have a look at the bride for they all knew how picky Tang and Lu Cheng Yu were.

The Lus had displayed ostentation and extravagance for the wedding, Lu Cheng Yu had even hired a sedan chair from town.

A lot of young girls in the villages wished their future wedding could be this grand as well.

Tang had made it very clear that she was going to be very picky about the guest list, leaving the villagers wondering whether Lu Lin was invited.

They all thought Lu Lin wasn't invited. Firstly, he was sold to Chen Xiao Mi, he didn't even bring changed clothes with him when Tang and Grandma Lu asked some villagers to carry him to Chen Xiao Mi's house on two pieces of door planks. That basically meant they had renounced him.

Secondly, Tang didn't send anyone to invite Lu Lin. Lu Lin didn't have to show up and humiliate himself in front of so many people.

But some villagers judged Lu Lin for not showing up, Lu Cheng Yu was his cousin after all, and he should show up and send his wishes according to custom. But neither Lu Lin nor Chen Xiao Mi was bothered by those voices.

The Lus had invited so many guests for Lu Cheng Yu's wedding, it was very impressive.

To return to Lu Lin and Chen Xiao Mi.

Lu Lin was thinking about the details about opening a commercial house, he thought they were short-staffed, so he had been thinking about buying some help.

"Buy some help? From a human trader?" Chen Xiao Mi asked in shock.

Lu Lin nodded. Buying servants and maids from human traders was not against the law in that time and space, it was a common practice in big families.

Chen Xiao Mi frowned and said, "Do we still have the money though? We bought farmland and that commercial house, that's 266 tales gone."

Lu Lin nodded and said, "We still have about 50 taels, we can make another 15 if we sell another batch of sweet potato wone."
