As soon as Zhen Zhen entered the Dongnuan Pavilion, she first greeted the old lady, and then greeted the Hou Ye and Xiaobai in turn. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhen Zhen stood there, looking at the elegant and handsome Hou Ye as in her memory.
The figure is thin and tall, elegant and majestic, and his eyes are blazing, and he is looking at himself with pity.
Zhen Zhen's heart suddenly hurt, and her tears involuntarily fell down like pearls with broken threads.
Originally, I was thinking about whether I would be nervous and whether there would be anything wrong with seeing Hou Ye, but when I really saw Hou Ye, the father-daughter nature of blood connection came to life in Zhen Zhen's heart.
Hou Ye saw his most cherished daughter, a burst of colic in his heart, and at first he was afraid to see the child's alienated expression, but at this moment, the child opened a pair of big eyes, and the kind of grievance that saw his relatives instantly turned Hou Ye's heart into a clear spring.
"Good boy, sit down first." Hou Ye walked in front of Zhen Zhen, and wiped the child's tears with his big hands a little clumsily.
After a while, Ye Qianqian and Ye Huanhuan also came over, and before Huanhuan could coquettish her father, Aunt Xiao also entered the East Pavilion belatedly.
Hou Ye glanced at the old lady, in front of the child, Hou Ye still would not embarrass the old lady.
"Hou Ye has been out for so long and returned home, and a lot of things have happened in the house. Now that the Hou Ye is back, it just so happens that the family affairs of the second and third girls have also been decided, let's talk about their dowry. The old lady said with some unenthusiasm.
Xiao Bai twisted the handkerchief in his hand, and was a little worried about his daughter's dowry.
"Master Hou, Sister Qian's dowry was prepared in advance,...... Xiao Bai said how Qian Qian's dowry was prepared.
"Hmm." Hou Ye nodded, and there was no expression on his face.
Ye Qianqian raised her head and looked at her father's face cautiously, "Father, my daughter knows the current situation in the house, and she has already told her grandmother and mother to give some of her daughter's dowry to the third sister." "It's useless to say more, just get the meaning done.
Hou Ye looked at his second daughter with some surprise, with an approving look in his eyes, "The few Zhuangzi and shops you married Sister Qian were all married by you?" "Master Hou is very strange, when did the Xiaobai family have so many Zhuangzi and shops.
"There are two Zhuangzi who are married, and the others are all from the house." Xiao Bai's family didn't dare to fool Hou Ye at will.
Hou Ye took a deep look at Xiao Bai's family, Xiao Bai's family shrank and trembled, and his eyes were wandering and he didn't dare to look at Hou Ye.
"The two Zhuangzi and the jewelry shop and restaurant on the edge of the capital don't need to be given to Sister Qian. These are for Sister Zhen. ”
Sissi's hands were tightly twisted together, and she secretly hated her father's partiality in her heart.
Huan Huan didn't care about that, when she heard that her father was so partial, she was immediately unhappy, "Father is too partial, why should the best be given to the third sister." Isn't the second sister your daughter? ”
Hou Ye glared at Xiao Bai fiercely, "You can buy a dowry for Sister Qian at will for the things in the house, and Yanyan's dowry can only be left for the eldest sister and Sister Hao." ”
It turned out that several Zhuangzi and shops in this were actually Wanyan's dowry.
"Master Hou, Sister Qian also called Wanyan's mother." The old lady was not happy anymore.
"That was left to Sister Zhen by Sister Zhen's mother, and Sister Qian has her own mother." Hou Ye retorted unceremoniously.
"I took out forty thousand taels of silver myself, and two children twenty thousand taels each. Sister Qian's dowry, you can look at it.
You don't have to worry about Sister Zhen's dowry, leave these to Aunt Xiao to help buy it. "This is Chi Guoguo's slap in the face of the Xiaobai family, there is a housewife in charge, and he actually asked a concubine to help buy a dowry.
The old lady's face sank, "Master Hou, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" ”
"There's nothing wrong with it, the two children's dowries are all for the lady to buy alone, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the time, so let Aunt Xiao help Sister Zhen buy it."
Since you have set the family matter so urgently, the Hou Ye is also thinking about his wife, and he doesn't want his wife to work too hard.
"Sister Qian now has 40,000 taels of silver to buy a dowry, as well as the old lady and your own dowry, which is rare in the capital." Hou Ye hinted meaningfully, and the Xiaobai clan almost accepted it when he saw it.
Although Xiaobai's family regretted those Zhuangzi and shops, Hou Ye took out 20,000 taels, which is not a small amount. In addition, the old lady filled in with herself, and Sister Qian's dowry was a lot.
Hou Ye glanced at Aunt Xiao, who had not said a word since she entered the house, "You have followed Mrs. for so many years, it shouldn't be too difficult to buy some dowry."
Tomorrow I will go to Rongfu for a trip and ask my sister-in-law to come over and help. ”
Aunt Xiao showed a faint smile on her face when she heard this, "Master Hou is thoughtful, and the concubine will definitely help her in-laws take care of the third lady's dowry." ”
"Hmm." Hou Ye nodded and glanced at everyone, "Let's all go back." ”
After everyone left one after another, Hou Ye also said goodbye and left the old lady.
Zhen Zhen returned to Xiaomei Garden, and before she could sit down, Hou Ye followed behind.
"Father." Zhen Zhen was a little timid and overjoyed.
Hou Ye stood in front of Zhen Zhen, stretched out his hand and stroked Zhen Zhen's head with some pity, "Do you have some resentment in your heart?" "Yes, this little girl used to stick to herself and shout in her mouth.
Zhen Zhen's heart suddenly felt sour, tears fell down the cheeks, the father is really fond of this daughter, but he will never know that his jewel-like baby has left this world forever, no one knows that the poor girl is no longer alive, how can those who love her and care about her deal with themselves, and how can this soul of another world be at ease?
Hou Ye's eyes were sour, and he stretched out his arms and took his baby daughter in his arms, "Sister Zhen, Daddy is sorry for you, I can't shelter you sisters, and let you fall into such a situation." Hou Ye choked up and was a little speechless.
Zhen Zhen secretly swore that she must replace that girl to live a different and wonderful life in this world, and she must let everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty know Ye Zhenzhen's name.
"Daddy, my daughter doesn't feel wronged, and my daughter feels that marrying into the Dingguo Mansion is not so unbearable......" After Zhen Zhen sat down, she slowly told Hou Ye her thoughts.
Hou Ye looked at his well-behaved and sensible daughter with red eyes, and felt even more guilty in his heart, "Good boy, no matter when, your father is watching over you behind you, no matter what grievances you have suffered, don't endure it yourself, everything is decided by your father." ”
The father and daughter slowly opened their hearts and spoke carefully. In the end, when Hou Ye was leaving, he gave Zhen Zhen a silver ticket of 20,000 taels.
Zhen Zhen also knew that the Hou Ye was embarrassed, it was impossible to disobey the widowed mother, and the family affairs of Dingguo Gong were not ordinary people, so they had no choice but to make their own decisions.
