Chapter 250 Pressing Box Silver

The Luo family, located in Yangshu Hutong, was overjoyed, and as soon as the Zhang family agreed to the family affair, Luo Shao wrote to inform Li Yi. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Luo Shao's last letter was the news of Luo Jinyan and the Qin family's marriage, and when the letter was sent to Anhui, Li Yi's family had just left. The people in the Li family's old house received the letter and forwarded it to Yangzhou, but Luo Shao sent the letter with a six-hundred-mile expedited, but ordinary people could not use it. Therefore, as soon as Li Yi's family arrived in Yangzhou, they received two letters from Luo Shao at the same time.

Li Qingfeng left for Yangzhou the day after Luo Jinyan Xiaoding, so he arrived home with Li Yi before and after, and he was a little surprised to see these two letters.

He was in the dust, and just as he wanted to sleep peacefully, he was called over by Li Yi for careful interrogation.

Asked Qing Qing that the son of the Qin family was Qin Jue, who was the one who stabbed King Ning, Li Yi was stunned for a moment.

He waved his hand and retreated, and then asked Li Qingfeng again: "Why did your brother-in-law suddenly marry the Qin family?" It is said that Qin Jue is a ruthless character, you are honest with your father, did he force your brother-in-law to marry his daughter when he learned that he had a good life? ”

Whether it is the scholarly fragrance of the Qin family for generations, or a splendid one, it is all a legend for these merchants. They only knew that the Qin family had a Qin Jue and killed the thief Zhao Li with his own hands.

Li Qingfeng was so crying and laughing by his father that he hugged his father and sat on the Taishi chair, and then said: "Qin Jue was personally selected by his brother-in-law, he is the son of the Qin family, he was promoted at the age of fourteen, he has long been famous in the capital, but he is very modest, and often asks his brother-in-law for homework, and his brother-in-law likes him very much, and the Qin family also has this intention, so he invited Mr. Fengyang to be a Baoshan to propose to his brother-in-law." You can rest assured, I am familiar with Qin Jue, if you see him, you will definitely be satisfied, you must look good, you must be knowledgeable, and the most rare thing is to be very attentive to pity. ”

Speaking of which, Li Qingfeng told him about Qin Jue's delivery of pork to Xianghe overnight on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Li Yi was well-informed, and his eyes widened in surprise: "Shouldn't scholars give away some rare and ancient books?" Even people like us will pick up the best gold, silver and jewelry and send them over, and this is the first time I have heard of pork, and maybe it is also exquisite. ”

Li Qingfeng saw his father's serious face, and felt even more interesting in his heart, what is the matter? It's not just a whim.

He talked to Li Yi about the idea of buying a house for Luo Jinyan in Suzhou, Li Yi stroked his palms and said to Li Qingfeng: "Since our Li family doesn't have this blessing, we can't let other people's families bully it, this house not only has to be purchased, but also has to be purchased with great fanfare. ”

Li Qingfeng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Dad, this house is a pity for me, don't rob it with me, when you get married, you might as well give more money in the box, or hide it from the Qin family, open an account for her in the four major money houses, and the daughter who marries out is most afraid of being tight, you see how moisturized my mother is, isn't it just that she has silver in her hands." It is also a pity to rely on the Qin family's little silver to live, and he is reluctant to make jewelry. ”

Li Yi nodded and said yes, he was familiar with Liao Xiang, the second master of the Liao family, and he also knew a thing or two about the Liao family, and each family was only twenty or thirty taels a month.

"You're right, although your brother-in-law is not poor, but their Luo family lives by facing the loess with their backs to the sky, not to mention his fortune, not enough for officialdom, now he wants to marry and fill the house, and buy a dowry for Xixi, I'm afraid there won't be much silver for her to press the box, so how much is it, I will also let Lin Zhenxing open an account in the four major money banks, and save a private house for Xixi."

The silver in the box will not be on the dowry book, if it is a pity that when the Qin family is separated, the silver will be blind, it is better to save it in his name, and it is a pity that it can be withdrawn at any time with the seal.

Li Yi's mother is a girl from the You family in Anhui, the You family came to Yangzhou more than ten years earlier than the Li family, Li Yi's father was the first to follow the old lady of the You family to run the salt gang, and the old lady of the You family saw that he was bold and careful, so he married his daughter to him. This old lady has a rich dowry, after her death, the dowry is taken care of by Li Yi, before Li and Luo Shao got married, Li Yi had discussed with Li that his mother's dowry was given to his sister, but at that time, Li insisted on only half and left the other half to Li Yi.

Later, Li followed Luo Shao to a remote small place, and died in office, Li Yi has always regretted that he should have taken out this half of the dowry back then and gave it to Luo Shao to run for office, if Luo Shao stayed in the capital or came to Jiangnan, how could his sister go at a young age.

Now that Li Qingfeng said this, he remembered this dowry again.

gave half of the dowry left by her mother to a pity, she wanted to take it out to Qin Jue to run for office, or to her children, and even as Li Qingfeng said, she could be by her side after leaving.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was good, and he immediately sent his henchmen to do it. Everything that can be exchanged for silver is exchanged for silver, and the field shops are managed by the right people, so they will keep it for the time being.

Luo Shao and Luo Jinyan didn't know that there was still this half of the dowry, and soon they received a letter from Li Yi.

The letter was not a post station, but a delivery from Cui's mother.

Cui's mother smiled and said to Luo Shao: "My lord said that the daughter of Mr. Fengyang's family must be virtuous and virtuous, and my aunt's wife can rest assured under Jiuquan, but the lord and wife have just returned to Yangzhou, and they can't get out of their bodies for a while, so they can't come over to drink the wedding wine in person, so let the old slave send the congratulatory gifts." ”

The congratulatory gift is 1,000 taels of gold and a set of gold and jade heads.

Cui's mother said again: "My lord heard the second master say that the date of Miss Cousin's employment was set in August, and he said that the family had settled down at that time, so he thought about bringing his wife to the capital in person. ”

Luo Shao immediately understood, what was too busy to help, it was obvious that he was worried that his stepmother would enter the door, and his father would become a stepfather, and he would be harsh on his niece in the matter of marriage.

At that time, the two families were separated by a wall, and Li Yi had to let the people in the tent count the money one by one.

Li Qingfeng was not in the capital, Luo Shao calculated that Li Yi and his wife would come in a few months, so while busy with his own family affairs and his daughter's dowry, he also asked people to paint the house next door.

And at this time, Lin Cong finally returned.

He hired a dart bureau, took Luo Wu to quietly settle in a remote inn, and sent a letter to his father, in the evening, Mr. Lin came to the small inn, the father and son have not seen each other for nearly two years, but there is not much contract, Lin Cong whispered to his father: "Dad, I am not familiar with the life in the capital, and I have been away for two years, I don't know the situation here, I want to meet the eldest lady." ”

As soon as Mr. Lin arrived at the small inn, he found that Lin Cong was actually sent to the capital by the dart bureau, and in the past two years, he didn't know what Lin Cong was doing in Yunnan, but now it is certain that this kid did not come back alone.

He said in a deep voice: "I'll ask someone to bring a letter to the eldest lady, and borrow Fang Lao Si and Teng Lao Wu first, they are more reliable than the dart bureau, put this side in place, and then you can follow me to see the eldest lady." (To be continued.) )
