Chen Bi is good at embroidery, and the surrounding villages know a lot, although Chen Bi is still young, there are a few matchmakers, but they all asked Chen Qing to stop, under the pretext that Chen Bi is young and not old enough to say that he is a parent, so he should help at home for two more years.

Miao Rencui also didn't want to marry her off hastily because Chen Bi could make money, and besides, she was still worried about marrying Chen Bi to a rich man, how many dowry money could the surrounding villages give?

Miao Rencui quarreled more than once about this matter, looking at the eldest aunt who was getting more and more impatient, Chen Qing was really afraid that she would not be able to bear the huge debt, and would marry her sister to a family who was willing to pay more dowries.

Before the matchmaker invited by Wan Zhuoping's family came to the door, Miao Rencui had just sent away a mother-in-law from the same village, who had just been a disaster last year, if it weren't for friendship, who could lend money to Boss Chen when life was difficult?

Most of the silver borrowed by Chen Ping is from other villages, and it is inconvenient to come and go to ask for it every other month.

Miao Rencui had just been squeezed, and she was angry, and the matchmaker didn't have a good face when she came to the door. The matchmaker invited by the Wan family is also a sharp mouth, and in three or two sentences, Miao Rencui said that he was alive, and took out pastries and tea, and the face of this eldest aunt looked a little better.

As soon as the matchmaker told the situation of the Wan family, and was willing to wait for a year and a half before letting Chen Bi pass through the door, Miao Rencui started Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.

Chen Qing had long known that Wanjia would send someone to talk to the matchmaker today, and he happened to enter the door when the time was calculated, and asked with a cold face, "What are you doing here?"

The matchmaker just laughed and didn't speak, Miao Rencui got angry when she saw Chen Qing's stubborn appearance, "What can you do, tell Chen Bi about matchmaking, you don't care about being a brother, my aunt still can't be controlled?"

"Abi is only 13 years old, and he will come next year," Chen Qing said deliberately.

"This is the elder brother of the Chen family, what I said, don't you have to get married sooner or later? That Wanjia is a good family, so as not to miss a good marriage" The matchmaker said quickly with a sharp mouth like a broken bean.

"You junior can't call the shots for you, hurry up and go to work in the field, what do you eat and drink at home if you miss the harvest?" Miao Rencui commanded.

Chen Qing looked at the matchmaker with a dark face, "Even if you want to say goodbye, you have to give a dowry first! Let the girl marry the year after tomorrow, and leave quickly if you don't agree."

Miao Rencui thought that Chen Qing was deliberately making things difficult for people, and wanted to blast the matchmaker out, so he hurriedly scolded a few words, and comforted the matchmaker not to be angry like a child.

"Hey~ You have a big breath in the future, do you know the rules? This dowry is sent in March, how can you ask for a dowry first if you don't have a marriage?

Miao Rencui's mind changed sharply, if he could ask for the dowry in advance, he could also pay off part of the debt first. didn't know anything, let Chen Qing quarrel with the matchmaker, if the matchmaker was angry and wanted to leave with her sleeves away, she would have a few words of comfort, and scolded Chen Qing twice.

"These three media and six hired our countrymen don't pay attention to it so much, but they also have to follow the rules, are you really worth a lot of money as your sister-in-law?

Chen Qing's face darkened on the spot, and even Miao Rencui's face began to look bad.

"This is all about kissing first, and then sending four dowry gifts to set up relatives, signing the documents to say that the family affairs are decided, and the dowry will be given in March before marriage, and then you can get married, do you understand~" The matchmaker looked at Chen Qing with disdain.

"I don't understand, and I don't care about the many rules, if the Wan family is sincere, the dowry will be the same early and late, if my sister is older, the Wan family will ruin the family, and I don't have to delay my sister's marriage" Chen Qing stubbornly stood opposite the matchmaker.

"Cut~ It's okay, who will ruin the family! Not only can't the bride price be recovered, but also the woman has to be compensated, isn't that a blind toss~" The matchmaker retorted.

"Hmph~ What if the Wan family dislikes my family for being poor, and I don't want to marry my sister if I lose two dollars?

"This ...... Anyway, if you don't agree, don't worry about your sister-in-law's good marriage, don't rely on your mother-in-law to remind you, there are many girls like Wanjia who want to marry him, and your sister-in-law will embroider with one hand to see people, and she still wants to pick and choose" The matchmaker forked her waist into a teapot shape, snorted at Miao Rencui, picked up the pastries and tea, and planned to go back.

"Hey~ Why do you still carry this thing back?" Miao Rencui immediately quit, and came to the door to say that the gifts brought by the family were all to be left, regardless of whether they said it or not, this is the rule.

"Your baby doesn't speak well, so I'll come for nothing, people like you are disgusted with things. Let me tell you, there is no family affair that my wife Liu can't say about in the surrounding ten miles and eight towns, who can't be polite when he sees me? If you think that the baby is valuable, you will be waiting for the master to marry, and I will not protect your family, and I will go to whoever you like!" The matchmaker waved Miao Rencui's hand away and was about to go outside the house.

"If you really have such a great ability, why don't you let Wanjia send the dowry gift?

"Chen Qing, you don't say a word, his aunt, don't be angry......" Miao Rencui roared and hurriedly appeased the matchmaker. The conditions of these 10,000 families are good, and they will definitely be able to give a few taels of silver more than the people who came to say goodbye before, Miao Rencui didn't want to let go of this good family affair.

"Hey~ You're a crazy poster, the trick is bright, I'm going to put the words here today, if you can't protect this family business, won't you give the dowry in advance?

"Hey~ his aunt, don't you drink tea before leaving?" Miao Rencui collected his things and called later.

When the matchmaker left, Miao Rencui scolded Chen Qing from head to toe, and almost didn't come up to slap a few times to relieve her anger. This family affair is going to be let go, where can I get the money to pay off the debt?

Chen Qing didn't say a word, let the eldest aunt scold, Chen Bi hid behind the door and listened for a long time, and was found by the eldest aunt and scolded in a row, "Two money-losing goods, the best family affairs have made you yellow, and I don't know how to help the family pay off the debt, and you still want to stay in my house for the rest of your life?"

"Don't be noisy, my ears are hurt by your noise, didn't the matchmaker say that she wanted to protect the matchmaker? Everything is put down, what are you worried about?" said Boss Chen plucked his ears.

That Liu matchmaker is also a capable person, and the matchmaker who has been protected by her hand really doesn't say it, so Boss Chen is not afraid of letting go of his relatives, and the family is still anxious to use the money, and it is a good thing that the dowry will arrive early.

"How do you know that Mrs. Liu is not talking big, which family will not wait for the girl to be old before giving a dowry?" Miao Rencui turned the spearhead and opened fire on his own masters.

"I think the eldest brother's method is very good, even if this pro can't say it, in the future, all those who come to ask for marriage will let them give a dowry gift first, and then A-Niang will not be afraid of sending those debt collectors without money" Chen Ping rolled his eyes and said.

"It's not all because of you!How can you pay back so much silver~...... and let me not live......" Miao Rencui was furious when he mentioned the silver, and immediately spread it on the ground, patting his legs and crying.

"Okay, A-Niang, when I am admitted to Xiucai, I am still afraid that I will not have the money to repay the debt?

"That's what I said, son, go and study well, you will definitely have a show in three years before you give your mother a long face" Miao Rencui burst into tears, and was busy driving her son to Wenshu.

"Okay, okay, I'll go" Chen Ping hid in the house, out of sight and out of mind, he was also afraid of A-Niang's crying and scolding.

Grandpa and grandma, who came back from the cool in the village, learned that Chen Qing scolded the matchmaker and reprimanded him twice, because Chen Bi was still young, he didn't say much, I was afraid that as soon as the matchmaker preached it in the future, she knew that his family was not easy to get along with, and no one dared to come to the door to say goodbye.

can guard the eldest daughter-in-law, and the second elder does not dare to tell the truth, lest the family have no peace.

originally thought that this family affair would not be able to be completed after Chen Qing stirred it up like this, but on the morning of the second day, Mrs. Liu led the elders of the Wan family and brought four colorful gifts to the Chen family to talk about the matchmaker.

Miao Rencui smiled happily, and hurriedly asked people to go to the field to call Boss Chen back, and asked someone to stop Chen Qing.

When Boss Chen entered the house, Grandpa Chen's grandmother sat on the head, Boss Chen's family sat opposite his in-laws, and Chen Bi was told to go back to the house to hide, and this family matter was decided.

It took a lot of money to negotiate the dowry, and Miao Rencui opened his mouth, and the silver alone cost 50 taels, not counting the rest of the items and grain.

As soon as the elders of the family heard it, they stopped doing it, such a poor mother's family, not to mention helping the mother-in-law's family, it would be good if it didn't drag it down. The Wan family didn't speak with a dark face, and Mrs. Liu knew how to save the scene, so she talked about it openly and secretly, and brought out the feat of the little brother of the Chen family yesterday to teach her, boasting that if she hadn't boasted that Haikou would protect this family, she would not invite the elders of the Wan family.

Miao Rencui was busy thanking and worshipping, and said that Chen Qing was an outlier in the family, his brother went early, and the child was too old to be disciplined, and he brought out his son to talk about things, which made the faces of the Wan family look a little better.

But what kind of virtue is the Chen family, the elders of the Wan family are also counted, and they didn't want to get involved with such relatives, but Zhuo Ping had to marry his daughter, and Zhuo Ping's father and mother also said that the child was very good, but it was to make the in-laws involved.

In the end, the dowry was finalized with 31 taels of silver, two quintals of grain, three pieces of cloth, four catties of pastries, five plates of tea, and six catties of good wine,...... 10 pounds of official salt.

In short, the dowry is perfect, and the peasant family is more pragmatic and wants the people's livelihood. If the people in the city want gold, silver, jewelry, pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other elegant objects.

After finalizing the number of dowry, the Wan family went back, and after raising the dowry, they signed the paperwork.
