Chapter 221: The Male Challenge

The next day was the sixteenth day of the first month, and Luo Shao was going back to the capital. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info is going to make a small decision on the sixth day of the first month of February, and he has to go back to the capital to invite matchmakers and Quanfu people.

Qin Jue accompanied Luo Shao back together, and only saw Luo Jinyan when he left.

Luo Jinyan sent his father all the way to the gate of Zhuangzi, without squinting, without looking at Qin Jue during the whole process, but his face was red and fluttering, and he was delicate and dripping like a phalaenopsis.

On the way, Luo Shao asked which Quanfu people of the Qin family invited, and Qin Jue said: "The Quanfu people invited the wife of the Jiang Yuan of the Tai Hospital, and our family and the Jiang family are world friends." ”

Luo Shao nodded, the Jiang family has been the imperial doctor for generations, and Mrs. Jiang San is a famous Quanfu person in the capital, and many official eunuchs like to invite her.

Qin Jue thought for a while, and then said: "Our family is now presided over by the second aunt, and we may have to invite the second aunt and Mrs. Jiang San to make a small decision together." ”

Luo Shao's brows frowned slightly when he heard this, Qin Jue's second aunt is Qin Mu's wife, and since he discussed marriage with the Qin family, he has also heard some things that he didn't know before. For example, this Second Lady Qin once did a shocking thing, at the Qin family's annual plum appreciation banquet, Second Lady Qin invited a bunch of women from low backgrounds to look at each other, and there were even concubines from small families. No one is a fool, what kind of thoughts the second lady Qin has, everyone can see that this is completely inconsistent with the calm and atmospheric demeanor of the Qin family.

When Luo Shao heard about this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, after getting married, he regretted that he followed Qin Jue to live in Mingyuan Hall, and the well water of the second lady of Qin did not violate the river water, and later Qin Jue sent Bai Jiuniang over, Luo Shao even thought that if the second lady of Qin did something out of the ordinary, it was a pity that she couldn't scold her, so let Bai Jiuniang take action, when the housewife was beaten by her subordinates, it was a shame to be placed in ordinary people's homes, let alone the Qin family? Even if it is disrespectful to the elders, the reputation of Second Lady Qin as a harsh nephew and daughter-in-law cannot escape.

The slight change in Luo Shao's expression was also seen by Qin Jue, and he said solemnly: "Although our family is the second uncle as the head of the family, and the second aunt is in charge of the middle feed, my father has full authority to decide the matter of getting married, and the second uncle and the second aunt will not interfere, and then they will just come to go through the motions, you don't have to worry too much." ”

Voiceover: Even if Wu says something that doesn't like her, you should be a fart for her.

Luo Shao's face was a little pale, so he talked to Qin Jue about the test, and put this matter behind him for the time being.

Qin Jue didn't really let go of this matter, he returned to Jiuzhi Hutong, and went to see Qin Ye and asked about Xiaoding. It stands to reason that after Xiaoding, the two families will sit together to discuss the date of the bride price and Dading.

It is rare that his son is willing to take the initiative to come to him, Qin Ye said: "The dowry is one hundred and twenty-six lifts, the dowry is 10,000 taels, a total of more than 40,000 taels, these are all from the public school, and they are also according to the precedent of the family. ”

Qin Jue frowned: "Is it only forty thousand taels?" ”

Qin Ye understood, this kid is too little, and the dowry of 40,000 taels is a lot for the official eunuchs, even compared with the noble family, it is also superior.

In the flash of light, Qin Ye already knew why Qin Jue was too little.

Although it is said to be 40,000 taels, there is only 10,000 taels of dowry, and the other 30,000 taels are all things.

Except for the ornaments and jewelry made of new gold, the new fashionable ruler, the new tea and new wine, everything else is in the warehouse.

For a family like the Qin family in Jiuzhi Hutong, the most important thing is these things, not to mention one hundred and twenty-six lifts, even if they are loaded with dozens of lifts, they will only move a corner of the warehouse. Some of these things have been passed down for generations, and some may not be needed for decades.

Qin Ye was in charge of the Qin family's affairs, and although he did not purchase private property, he had more money on hand than the other houses.

Moreover, he only has one son, Qin Jue.

Qin Ye said: "Then take another 10,000 taels from the family as a dowry, but this has to be made clear to your second uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle." ”

Zongzi married a wife, and the public gave 10,000 taels of silver; The other concubines only had three thousand taels, and the concubines were even less, only one thousand taels. If you want to do it decently, you can only come up with your own money by each house.

Now Qin Jue's dowry is going to be another 10,000 taels, and Qin Ye has to explain things clearly to everyone.

Today is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the third master is in office, and the third lady is still in Taiyuan, but because the fourth wife's father is unwell, the couple came back from Taiyuan in advance, and now they are also in the house, but the fourth master and the fourth wife have always cared about anything, and the only ones who really want to discuss are the second master Qin Mu and the second lady Wu.

Qin Ye asked people to invite the second master and the fourth master and his wife to Chuci Garden.

He told him about the dowry, and the fourth master and the fourth wife were full of smiles, but they didn't mean to speak.

Qin Mu frowned and didn't say anything.

Qin Ye invited them over, and he just informed them, telling everyone that the extra 10,000 taels was from me myself, and seeing that Qin Mu didn't speak, he didn't say anything more.

The Wu family on the side was already very unhappy.

Qin Jue and the Luo family's family affairs, until the day of Xiaoding was also set, she didn't know.

I think it's because of what happened last time, Qin Ye's father and son deliberately hid it from them.

But this Luo family is not better than the ones she found for Qin Jue, although Luo Shao is a literary selection, he is just a five-grade petty official, and he is nothing in the capital. And the Luo family is not only a small family, but also a desperate family, that Miss Luo is the eldest daughter of the lost mother, and she was still dumb before, just by virtue of these two points, she is not as good as Liu Ruyi.

Of course, what made her even more angry was that her son didn't know where to flee now, and when such a big thing happened, Qin Ye, who was the eldest uncle, not only didn't think of a way, but also made a big deal about Qin Jue's wolf cub at this juncture!

It was clearly a slap in the face.

Seeing that no one said anything more, Wu sneered and said: "This dowry emphasizes that the man picks the woman, and our family has a dowry of 40,000 taels, and the Luo family will take out a dowry of at least 20,000 taels." Uncle, you also have to think about the Luo family, his family is a small family, where can he get a dowry of 20,000 taels? I think you might as well reduce the dowry and make the Luo family relaxed, no matter what, you will have to be in-laws in the future. ”

As soon as Wu's words came out, a needle drop could be heard in the room.

Qin Mu couldn't cover her mouth with hatred.

10,000 taels of dowry, 126 things, this is the rule of the Qin family for nearly a hundred years, although the Ye family was filling the house back then, and the dowry was halved, but when Qin Ye married his wife Lu, it was not less at all.

Who in the entire Qin family doesn't know this rule? Now Qin Jue is in the limelight, but when he was about to get married, someone jumped out and said that the bride price was too high?

Wu, how stupid do you have to be to say such a clever thing?

Qin Mu's gaze swept over the faces of several people in the room one by one, Qin Ye's face sank like water, the fourth old man twisted his face, pretending to admire the picture of the cold river on the wall, and the fourth lady covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and she couldn't stop smiling at a glance.

Qin Mu coughed dryly, and was about to speak, when he heard a clear voice coming from the back room: "I just learned that the second aunt can change the rules left by the ancestors, which is really gratifying!" (To be continued.) )
