Zhen Zhen got up early in the morning, cleaned up, ate something and took Qiu Jin and Qiu Yan to the old lady's yard to say goodbye. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Yesterday, someone from the Dingguo Mansion exchanged Geng stickers, and without the old lady's instructions, Zhen Zhen knew that it was time to go to ask for peace today, otherwise the old lady didn't know what excuse to find.

A few people entered Qinghui Courtyard, and as soon as they walked to the door of the main room, they heard the angry voice of Xiao Bai inside.

Pearl greeted loudly while opening the curtain, suggesting that the third lady in the room was coming.

"Zhen Zhen greets the old lady, greets the lady." Zhen Zhen gave a salute to the two elders, and then gave a salute to the second lady Ye Qianqian, and sat down straight without waiting for Ye Huanhuan to see the salute.

The old lady couldn't see any expression on her face, but Xiao Bai's expression was a little not good.

"Three girls, is your body good?" The old lady rarely showed a kind face, caring about Zhen Zhen's body.

"The old lady cares, Zhen Zhen's body is already very good."

"Well, it's cold in winter, so I'd better wear more clothes and pay attention to my body in the future."

"Thank you, old lady, for your concern." Zhen Zhen didn't mind acting with their mother and son.

Xiao Bai wanted to speak several times and stopped, and the handkerchief in his hand was about to twist into a twist.

"Mother, Sissi's dowry ......" Xiao Bai finally couldn't bear it anymore, and as soon as he started talking, he was glared back by the old lady.

"The three girls happened to come over too, so let's talk about things together.

Yesterday, the Duchess of Dingguo came to the door in person, asking for the fourth young master of the house to marry you, and the grandmother thought about it repeatedly and felt that the family background of the Dingguo Mansion was prominent, and the fourth young master had a good character, so she had agreed. After the old lady said this, she took a sip of tea from the teacup, and quietly observed Zhen Zhen's reaction by the way.

"What it means over there is that I want to marry you as soon as possible after you are married. It just so happened that your father had returned home in the past few days, and when he came back, he discussed the marriage of the two sisters. ”

After the old lady said this, she turned her head to look at Xiao Bai's, "You also have to pay for the dowries of the two girls." ”

Xiao Bai twisted the handkerchief in his hand, "Mother, first of all, the dowry of the girl who was Sissi had been prepared a long time ago, but the dowry of the Anle Hou Mansion was really ....... The daughter-in-law can only make up two more Zhuangzi for her own marriage, and now she still hasn't purchased it completely, and now the dowry of the third lady is ......"

Although the old lady was ruthless to the Zhen Zhen sisters, she was also very clear about Xiao Bai's careful thinking, and reached out and took the two small wooden boxes on the table, "You two are blessed, the second girl is married to the Anle Hou Mansion, and the third girl is married to the Dingguo Mansion, both of which are from prominent families, and our dowry can't be too stingy to make people laugh."

I will give each of you sisters a Zhuangzi and a shop, and I will give each of you 5,000 taels of silver to press the box. As for the rest of the dowries, you can watch them buy them from the public in the house. ”

Xiao Bai's face immediately smiled when he heard this, "Xiqian's dowry was purchased from the public school, as well as four Zhuangzi and four shops, and the daughter-in-law also took out two Zhuangzi ...... her own dowry."

Xiao Bai was chattering with a smile, and the old lady frowned, "Isn't it too much?" ”

The dowry is a necessary guarantee for the married woman, but with such a large amount of money, how to follow the following few, if the dowry in the back is too thin, it may hinder the reputation of the Marquis of Changning.

"What do you plan for the dowry of the three girls?" The old lady was suddenly a little annoyed by Xiao Bai's little family.

Although the dowry of the Anle Hou Mansion is really not low, but the three girls are talking about the Dingguo Mansion, and the family has thrown off the Anle Hou Mansion a few streets, if the three girls are harsh on the dowry, I am afraid that it will cause the dissatisfaction of the Dingguo Mansion.

Xiao Bai was obviously a little too excited, and he didn't expect the old lady to ask this question so directly.

Xiao Bai looked at the old lady, then at Zhen Zhen, and said with a reluctant smile, "I didn't expect that the family affairs of the three girls would be settled so quickly, and our house is really ...... If you don't wait for the Dingguo Mansion to come and hire you, you will have a look, and then you will be accompanied by two Zhuangzi and two shops. ”

The Xiaobai family has its own abacus, although the Dingguo Mansion has a prominent family background, but the reputation of the fourth young master is really ......

And just set the wedding date so casually, it is estimated that the government over there will not pay too much attention to the third lady, and it is a matter of face to say that the dowry is not enough.

The old lady's face sank when she heard this, and the teacup in her hand almost went out, "Confused, send the dowry back as a dowry, I don't think we need to ask for the face of the Marquis of Changning."

You, who are the mother of others, don't have to show up in the capital in the future.

Although the Rong Mansion has no official position, the power of the Rong Mansion is not comparable to our Hou Mansion and the Bo Mansion! ”

Although the Rong Mansion has had less contact with the Hou Mansion in recent years, this kind of thing of taking the dowry as a dowry was known by the Rong Mansion, and the capital would rarely talk about the Hou Mansion and the Bo Mansion.

The old lady rarely gave Xiao Bai such a faceless face in front of her children, Xiao Bai's face suddenly turned red, and her extremely aggrieved eyes were stained with tears, "Mother is wronged?" The daughter-in-law has been conscientiously handling the affairs of the house over the years, and she has not been harsh and wronged by the third lady.

Now it's really... It's really the situation in the house...... Besides, there are four young ladies and Brother Xuan in the back, which one doesn't need silver taels in the future? ”

Xiao Bai took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and secretly glanced at the old lady.

The old lady just doesn't like Zhen Zhen's mother and son, but she looks at the prestige of the Hou Mansion more than her own face, and Xiao Bai's short-sightedness really makes the old lady's heart angry.

Although Rong Fu was angry with himself and had fewer contacts, he did not offend Rong Fu too much after all.

Although Old Man Rong was demoted, the students under his door occupied almost half of the court, and he really offended Rong Mansion because of the dowry, and the Hou Mansion really couldn't take advantage of it in the future.

"When the eldest girl gets married, the dowry is not much, and the third girl is also a concubine, so the dowry is the same as the second girl." The old lady felt that she could not tell her stupid daughter-in-law clearly.

"Mother." Xiao Bai screamed, "Mother must be very clear about the current situation in the house, there is still so ...... there"

Xiao Bai wiped his tears and glanced at Zhen Zhen, who was sitting next to him without saying a word from beginning to end.

Ye Qianqian sat on the side with her head bowed all the time, looking shy. When I heard this, I knew I had to come out and say something.

"Grandmother, mother." Ye Qianqian frowned, bit the corner of her lip and whispered, "You don't have to be embarrassed by the second elder, just give some of Qianqian's dowry to the third sister, you can't let the house be very poor because of her daughter's marriage, and the fourth sister is not too young to see her age......"

The old lady looked at the second girl, who had always been sensible, her expression was much soothed, and her eyes were full of praise.
