The next day, Luo Fei woke up and didn’t see Luo Ji. He thought that Luo Ji had woken up super early that morning to plough more land. Later, he learned that Luo Ji had gone to town with Xi Yanqing.
Luo Fei was so anxious that he almost dropped and shattered the porridge bowl: “Why didn’t you tell me?! I want to go too.”

He had been here for so many days but still hadn't gotten to go to town yet, and the impression of the town he has is all from the old Luo Fei's memories. He also wants to check it out, especially the cloth and embroidery shops, to see what level those have developed.

“Who knew that you wanted to go? That said, they left at chou time (around 1 to 3 o'clock), can you even get up that early?” Li Yuehua took chopsticks and knocked on Luo Fei's head. “Come and drink your porridge! You have grown this big and have never gotten up that early!"

"What are they doing? Mother? Are they going to buy something?”

“Well, that Xi guy said that he wanted to go buy something, and I didn’t ask for details. I guess he would be buying something for the bride-price.”

[T/N: bride-price sounds sketchy cuz it's like they're selling him but it's basically the opposite of a dowry (what the bride's family gives to the groom's.)]
“Wasn't the bride price already given?”

“No. You silly boy, the one that was given before was the betrothal gift, not the bride-price. This is a two-issue thing. After the bride-price, you and his affairs will be completely settled, and the whole village will know.” Li Yuehua said, “Although this family does have much, to say, but this mother can not wrong you, and what we need to have we will have."
“Does he know what to buy?” Bride-price, money can't just be given for feelings!

“Well, he should know. That Xi guy is a detailed person, and the things he does isn't bad. Even then, isn't your elder brother also with him?” Li Yuehua said and then looked at Luo Tian. “Mother wants to tell you about the other thing, Erbao. It's the day when you will get married. Mother and your father have discussed it and decided it to be on the sixth day of the next month."

“The sixth day of the next month?!” Luo Fei was shocked for a while. “Isn't this too urgent?! How come I can't even have a month? I haven’t stayed at home enough yet.” Today should be the twenty-fifth. In other words, the day he and Xi Yanqing would get married would only be 11 days away? !

Let him first see that the crops Xi Yanqing planted have already grown so he can confirm that he will not be starved and then let him go!

Li Yuehua retracted her smile: “This child, how come you have so many issues? When have mother and father done anything harmful towards you? On that day, that day is definitely the best and most fortuitous day. Other days are not as good, you will have little fortune, you, ai which one do think is best to choose?!”

Luo Fei is still a little unhappy. Originally, he was convinced that Xi Yanqing's few words could settle it yesterday, but it was not done!

Shit! He couldn't just rely on that!
Luo Fei also wanted to fight for a few more days, but when he turned his head and saw Luo Tian glaring at him, and he immediately relented.

A good man will eat the loss in front of him! If he has to get married then he'll just get married!
“Erbao, you can be rest assured that Xi guy is a good one. Today, before he went to the town, he said that he would like to look at the furniture in the town and make you some good looking ones. Is that not done for you too? Even then, you are eighteen, not small anymore, how could you still stay by your mother and father's side? Listen to mother, get married early, and give the Xi family a branch (offspring, aka a fat baby lol) early. The kid has not had a family since very early, being alone is not easy, he definitely hopes that the family can be more lively.”

“Ahhh.” Open branches and leaves, huh? Better draw a line separating Chu and Han instead.

(I think this means instead of have kids, rather draw a line between them aka they'll never sleep together?)
Luo Fei drank the porridge. After a while, he asked: “Mother, what should be given as a bride-price?”
Li Yuehua said: “That depends on the conditions. At the very least, have a fish, buy two chickens, buy two pounds of pork and then two pots of wine. This is the most basic. If you want better, add some tea and cakes. There are also dates, peanuts, long yan, melon seeds, sweet candies, and such. You forgot what I brought to your sister-in-law's place when your big brother got married?”

Luo Fei really forgot. But listening to what Li Yuehua said, his saliva almost came down. He had to eat at least two kinds of fruits every day before he transmigrated here. After that, he had never seen fruit.

This time, he hoped that Xi Yanqing would buy lots of food and come back.
