The chariot, Ma Xiaoxiao, and the group went out with a smile, each turned over on his horse, and set off for Chengfu. Behind him, a carriage followed, but it was a gift for the first visit of a hairy son-in-law.

Cheng Min, the official of the Ministry of Worship, although he is now at home because of the fraud case in the imperial examination, he has only been retired, but his official rank is still retained.

And since the British government is on the man's side, it is naturally more noble, so this casual gift is not light. It's not about luxury, it's about rules.

It's just that Su Mo saw it in his eyes, but it hurt terribly. Right now, he's a complete pauper. The original accumulated silver money, after buying the Xishan Villa and the Ming Club, there is no longer half a cent left.

Not only that, but with the purchase of two industries in Beijing one after another, the flow of water in Wuqing was divided into some of the expenses in the case of not being able to get in and out. It can be said that the most unsightly thing for Su Mo now is silver, and when he sees so much wealth flowing out like this, he can't wait to stretch out two little hands in his eyes.

Mom sells batches, and sure enough, it has been average since ancient times, and it's not easy to marry a daughter-in-law. He sighed and thought about it, and when he thought about the scene he would have to deal with later, he felt even more loveless.

Two lives, this Nima saw that the parents were all big girls on the sedan chair. And obviously I have seen Sister Cheng's family before, so I should be a little mentally prepared, but for some reason, I just feel a little weak in my heart, and what I can't control is a nervousness.

The bastards next to him said that they were here to accompany him, but in fact, they were just here to see the excitement. Seeing his face strained all the way, one or two of them were overjoyed, and they were simply inhumane.

Chu Yushan, who accompanied him as a housekeeper, came over to comfort him, and listened to his casual question about whether this gift was too much, he was stunned at first, and then couldn't help crying and laughing.

"Young Master, you are putting the cart before the horse. Since ancient times, it is expensive for men to marry, but it is to add Ding to the family. And not to mention, even the woman always has some dowry money to give back. Or among ordinary people, there are still profits and losses, but the young master doesn't have to worry. The young lady is a scholarly family with a rich family background, how can the bride's money be less? If so, it will really lose face......

After saying a few words, Su Mo finally felt a lot better. I finally figured out the difference between the rules of marriage in ancient times and in later generations.

In later generations, it can be said that almost all of the men buy everything, and the women will symbolically return the gifts. Of course, if the woman is particularly wealthy and is willing to give more or even far more than the man, it will naturally be counted separately;

In ancient times, the number of women hired by the men was mostly determined. Generally, it is a double return, which is called face. The so-called makeup money is more or less raised, which is reflected in this aspect.

This is also why when ancient people said that they had daughters, most of them would beat their chests and feet, saying that they had raised a money-losing product. Because that's not only not just a matter of not being able to add to the family, but also paying a lot of dowry for nothing.

And even if the amount of dowry is not mentioned, the woman will feel that the daughter who has been raised for more than ten years has become a member of another family, and all these years of support have been in vain. Patriarchy also comes from the past.

Su Mo didn't understand it before, but it was only due to the social system and division of labor at that time, and it was not until this time that he personally experienced it, which could be regarded as understanding the Tao inside. When sighing and sighing, in fact, it comes down to two words, that is: interests.

The so-called hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the ancients did not deceive me.

chatting all the way like this, and talking to a few bastards from time to time, I saw that after turning two more streets, it was where Cheng's mansion was.

Su Mo twisted his body on the horse, and when he raised his eyes to look, his gaze swept in a certain direction, and he was stunned for a moment, and then his complexion changed greatly, and he immediately ordered the brigade to stop and turn his head to find another way.

Zhang Yue and the others didn't know why, so they gathered around to ask, Su Mo only stomped his feet and hurriedly shouted to leave. When everyone was puzzled, they heard an excited voice coming from behind, and everyone looked strange.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, I'm here to cheer you on. At the corner of the street, the little prince Zhu Houzhao was dressed in a green coat and a small hat, and ran over with the corner of the robe as if he were happy. That little face, red fluttering, this is called an excitement.

There were three people behind him, a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard, but at the moment his face was sweating profusely and his face was full of panic, but he was not Liu Jin who had ideals and was striving for progress.

It's really hard for him, after several blows, he didn't give him a blow and fell, which is even tougher than the legendary Xiaoqiang;

On the other side of him was a teenager, who looked a little kind, but couldn't remember which one. However, Su Mo remembered clearly that the future traitor Qian Ning.

As for the last one, Su Mo was dizzy, but Zhang Yue and the others also looked at each other, their faces were so strange that they didn't want to. That's not the Tianzun Guan Fu Bao little real person, which one is it?

This Nima is a prince of the court, and it is just a constant and easy-going eunuch, but with a little Taoist aunt, this is too weird.

And, listening to the meaning of what I just said, this is still going to go along......? Anyway, it's Cheng Minzheng's home, your father just wronged someone, although he was barely rehabilitated, but he hasn't even recovered his official son, is it really good that you, the prince, came to the door?

Wait, wait! That doesn't seem to be the point. What, what were you yelling at just now?

Brother-in-law......?!

Zhang Yue and the others looked at each other, and they couldn't help but shudder at the same time. Mader pills, this is going to be a big deal!

Several people looked at Su Mo in unison, Boss, are you sure this master is here to help you, not to smash the field......? Your circle is so chaotic.

The faces of the brothers began to show signs of greening, especially if they knew this, it was not good to be honest at home, so they had to come to see what was going on.

It's just Zhang Yue and the fat man. One of the two represents the British government, and from the very beginning, he represents the man's marriage envoy, and he can't hide if he wants to;

As the man's personal guard, the fat man should also follow. But what about Nima Xu Guangzuo? He can not participate in this matter at all. If it weren't for Zhang Yue's excitement and happiness, how could he be here?

Therefore, at this moment, Xu Guangzuo looked at Zhang Yue's eyes, which was murderous and awe-inspiring, and infinitely resentful.

Not to mention the secret eye contact between this brother, just talk about Su Mo's side. If you want to avoid it, you can only stubbornly top it.

"What are you doing here?" Su Mo looked at this little Zhengtai, and his tone was extremely unfriendly.

Zhu Houzhao was not annoyed, he came over with a dazzled smile, grabbed Su Mo's shoulder, and said with a low smile: "We are good brothers, you are very happy today, and the brothers are here to stand up for you to help your prestige." What's the matter, isn't it moving?

Su Mo looked at him like an idiot, why do you dare to tease him a little more? Let's not talk about you, the dignified prince of the court, suddenly followed me silently to the minister's mansion, and it was also a minister's mansion who had just been offended by your father, do you want my old man to live or die?

In particular, you must know that when the prince travels, there must be a guard of honor. But look at your dress, damn it, don't ask, this is another slip away! Think about the last time this guy sneaked to himself, the pomp and circumstance behind the emperor......

Su Mo looked up to the sky and sighed, he really felt that his hands were itchy. Why don't you just strangle this scourge here?

Not to mention, you brought a dead eunuch, a future traitor, and a nondescript little Taoist aunt, and then shouted to cheer me on...... Your uncle, what kind of power are you helping? Little master, this is going to propose marriage, to meet Lord Taishan, what do you mean by giving such a formation?

Shouldn't the little master praise it: they are all enthusiastic people, and there are Lei Feng everywhere?

Also, what did you shout just now? Brother-in-law?!What kind of tendon is wrong with you? You are changing the way to watch the whole thing, right? Don't admit it, the little master has already seen through your filthy soul.

The little prince rubbed his hands, smiling and smiling, his eyes a little evasive. If you don't see through it, we're still good brothers. Anyway, don't you want to drive me away today!

Su Mo looked at his little eyes and understood in seconds.

sighed, stroked his forehead with his hand, and looked at Fu Bao Xiaozhenren who followed behind him with a proud face: "You don't toss those fake medicines at home, why are you running here to make fun?"

Fu Bao pursed his lips, glanced at him with contempt, raised his little head, and snorted: "The real person heard that there is a demon who wants to harm a woman from a good family, so he has come to kill her! What's the matter, I'm afraid?"

Su Mo's cheeks twitched fiercely, what the hell is this child, it's so uncute! Hurry up and take it away, can you speak human words?

"Ma Yu'er, hurry up and turn around for the little master. This matter, there is no discussion!" Su Mo took a deep breath, ignored the tsundere Lori, and turned to the little prince and said viciously.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and nodded, "Cheng, Cheng, what are you talking about." That brother-in-law, go and mention your relatives, and worship your Taishan Taishui. As for my little brother, I went to visit Cheng Shilang by myself to ask for a glass of wine. Well, we'll see you later. Walking—"

Stop! You stop me! Su Mo's face turned green, and he stopped in a panic. If you're depressed, you might as well turn around and go back to find a good feng shui and hang yourself on the southeast branch!

Well, this snot can't be shaken off, so endure it. Try another one......

Fu Bao Xiaozhen saw someone's gaze, snorted very dryly, turned and walked forward, leaving someone with a cute back of the head.

Su Mo was dumbfounded......

A quarter of an hour later, the convoy, again with several more attachés, finally arrived at its destination. Su Mo's face was tragic, he got out of the car like a fellow wouldn't be righteous, raised his head and stared at the two big words Chengfu above the door of the mansion, then took a deep breath and stepped forward to call the door.

Behind him, several heads came together, looking at him with anticipation, like a rabbit about to enter a tiger's den......

Su Mo stood in front of the door, raised his hand and patted ....... uh, didn't shoot down. There was still a few tenths of an inch away, and he braked suddenly.

There was a boo behind him, accompanied by a crisp hissing sound.

Is this Nima a friend? Uh, no, who is the protagonist of this special thing? Are all the current tricks so unruly? No, we must stop this unhealthy trend!

Turning decisively, he strode back angrily. His eyes swept back and forth, clanging, and ordering generals, either he or you....... you......! Get out of the yarn!

The fat man was taken out with a frightened face. Cover your chest with both hands: "Young Master, what are you going to do?"

"What are you doing? hey, hey, quack, quack......." Su Mo smiled very gloomily, and suddenly smiled, and said angrily: "At this time, shouldn't it be you, the entourage, who stepped forward to call the door?

There was a local downpour, and the poor fat man was trembling in the rain, angry and aggrieved......
