Chapter 313: Take the dowry and leave
Let's talk about Zhou Fengling, since she picked up a handkerchief from under the stone shopkeeper horse and was kicked into the ditch by the horse's hooves, she has not appeared in the village for a long time, and the news in the village was brought to her by Qiao He.
Qiao He said with a regretful face: "The stone shopkeeper is miserable now, the grain he collected was confiscated by the prince and the fourth prince, and the land he collected was confiscated by the national teacher, and the property and land were empty, and Liu Qiniang couldn't spare him this time." ”
Zhou Fengling's face was expressionless, as if she didn't know this person.
"Hey, you know, I heard that Liu Qiniang is a tigress, with long tiger eyes and dragon eyebrows, very fierce, and even more ruthless, not merciless at all, even if she is a wealthy husband and makes a mistake, she will be severely punished, not to mention the stone shopkeeper? ”
Qiao He sighed, "Immortal-like people, I don't know what punishment to be punished now." ”
Zhou Fengling's expression was faint, and she used a thin brush dipped in rouge to paint her nails.
"Isn't he the one who claims to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
"I don't know who spread this gossip, isn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in Fushan Town now? ”
It turned out to be a rumor?!
She was embarrassed in front of others, but it turned out to be a rumor.
Zhou Fengling's slender eyes flashed with a hint of resentment.
"Oh, yes, I didn't tell you yet, I, I told someone. ”
Qiao He suddenly smiled and lowered his head.
Zhou Fengling looked at her in surprise, "Ah, really, where?"
"It's a little brother of my brother-in-law, on the outskirts of Fushan Town, there are a few shops at home, and he is considered a solid family. ”
The conditions are not good, but they are not bad.
"Wife?"
"Hmm. ”
It turned out to be a wife!
Zhou Fengling suddenly felt a little envious, jealous and hateful.
In terms of appearance, Qiao He is really not a beauty;
In terms of character, it is neither gentle nor spicy, and it is not slippery;
In terms of intelligence, it can't be compared with oneself -
But how can she marry so well?
"Why so suddenly?"
She looked at Qiao He with a smile, "You have such good conditions, you are much better looking than your sister, your temperament is better than her, and your talent is far beyond her, how can you be willing to marry only your brother-in-law's little brother?"
Qiao He smiled quite smugly and sighed, "To be honest, I also think that his conditions are a little worse than mine, and he is a dead wife-"
It turned out to be a steproom, Zhou Fengling smiled.
She slipped out of her mouth all of a sudden, and suddenly became a little embarrassed, "Although my brother-in-law's conditions are better, my sister is just an aunt after all, and I am a wife and a housewife." ”
said, touched the golden hairpin on his head, "Alas, time is tight, and I can't find a more suitable one for a while, but fortunately, he is very good to me, and I gave a set of red gold noodles as soon as I met, and I was very generous, forget it, time is tight, and I won't be entangled." ”
Zhou Fengling didn't quite understand this.
"What do you mean by time constraints?
It's only fifteen, it's too late, even if it's seventeen or eighteen and there are people who aren't married.
"You don't know?"
"Know what?"
"Doctor Wei treated the national teacher, and the national teacher revealed some news, saying that the next three years will not be a marriageable year, and if you get married, it will not be good for the woman and the woman's family, so everyone wants to get married before the year. ”
The next three years?
Isn't she eighteen then?
Zhou Fengling couldn't believe it: "Really?"
"Naturally, it's true, the wedding date of Yaya and Dr. Wei has also been set, on the ninth day of September this year, oh, and Xiaoxing, the wedding date is at the end of August. ”
The wedding date is set?!
Zhou Fengling rushed into Zhu Qinglian's room as soon as Qiao He left-Zhou Zhiyuan had moved to the study for a long time, and it turned out that this bedroom had become Zhu Qinglian's alone.
Zhu Qinglian didn't try to save her relationship with Zhou Zhiyuan, and they all went home.
"Mother, do you know that after this year, three years in a row is a bad year?"
"It's just a fool of the world, do you believe it?"
Zhu Qinglian looked light-hearted, obviously she had known it for a long time.
Zhou Fengling raised her eyebrows, "The national teacher is a god stick, mother, are you mistaken? He predicted the turn of the earth dragon, how many people didn't believe it at that time, but later, it was proved that he was right!"
Zhu Qinglian sighed helplessly, every time Qiao He came over, Zhou Fengling was always teased as a demon......
"This is what your second uncle said, and no one confirmed that it was said by the national teacher, he wanted to catch the good son-in-law of Dr. Wei, and he was afraid that the people in the village would say that he married his daughter too early, so it was not necessary to make up this nonsense. ”
Zhou Fengling asked with a face, "It doesn't have to be true? You will fool me, it's not necessarily true, so what if? Do you have evidence to prove that it's not true?"
Zhu Qinglian sighed, "Don't make any noise, my mother has saved enough money here, but Zhou Ajiao hasn't said anything yet, just by taking advantage of this rumor, we can quickly set up someone, and we can roll up her dowry and fly away, isn't it?"
If you say it's good, it's called going away and flying high, but if it's ugly?
Run away with the rolls!
Zhou Fengling glared at her resentfully, "Isn't it just to run away, you know how to escape? Just our mother and daughter, there is no man to protect us, can we go out safely? Why are you so stupid, there is no other way?"
"Since my mother arranged to go, she naturally thought of countermeasures. ”
Zhu Qinglian looked out the window vigilantly, "You weren't me before, but if you marry a rich family, are you Miss Everyone?" My mother contacted a former benefactor, who was doing business, although she was not an official, but her family had money, land, and shops, even if you married in the future, you could marry someone in the name of Miss Boss, even if you couldn't marry this year, you are Miss Everyone, are you afraid that you won't find a good family in three years?"
"Seriously?"
Zhou Fengling's fried hair was finally smoothed out.
Let's say that Zhou Junchen, after being instructed by his father, the first thing he did when he returned to Fushan Town was to go to Xiao's house.
"Junchen, come in, come in. ”
Mrs. Xiao is as enthusiastic as ever.
"No, aunt, the child test is imminent, and Junchen doesn't dare to slack off. ”
If Zhou Junchen can't take the road of the imperial examination, then he is just a poor boy from a peasant family, so Xiao Shuangshuang and his affairs need to be reconsidered.
Zhou Junchen hit the bull's-eye this time, and he said with a humble and arrogant attitude: "Is Cousin Wu at home?" I'll say a few words to her and leave. ”
"Okay, I'll call him, you still have to prepare well for the children's exam, just like your cousin Wen, strive to be the first in the exam, and glorify your ancestors for the glory of your Zhou family. ”
Since Mrs. Xiao was separated from the Xiao family, the whole person has a lot more fireworks, and she is staring at Zhou Junchen's appearance at the moment, just like a person who has not eaten for a few days sees a pig's trotters.
Zhou Junchen bowed slightly, "I borrow your auspicious words." ”
