Chapter 62: Earrings

Because Wang Guqing's brothers and sisters have returned to Jiangzhou one after another, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet of the Wang family in Jiangzhou, Wang's wife Fan is particularly lively. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, after everyone finished the New Year's dinner, they gathered in the warm pavilion of Ningde Courtyard, and while keeping the New Year, they gathered around Mrs. Xie to have fun.

"Grandmother, it's time to give out red envelopes." Wang Zefeng, the second son of the prince, has always been informal, and when he saw that he returned to the warm pavilion, he shouted loudly.

"Yes, yes, all of them. You monkey, what's the hurry? Your sister hasn't asked for it yet. Mrs. Xie smiled and slapped her second grandson, and then instructed Mama Zhou to bring out the red envelopes that had been prepared a long time ago.

Next, led by Mr. and Mrs. Wang, a large family kowtowed to Mrs. Xie in turn. Mrs. Xie squinted her eyes and nodded repeatedly, picked up the red envelopes from the subordinates waiting on the side, and personally distributed them to the juniors one by one.

Wang Jiqing because she is an orphan girl in the third room, and she is the youngest in this generation, so she ranked last, and after she knelt down to her grandmother to worship the New Year, her grandmother personally took off a turquoise earring on her earlobe and handed it to her.

The jewelry that Mrs. Xie can carry with her is naturally very expensive, this earring is no more than the size of a peanut, but the whole body is turquoise, swaying slightly under the light, it seems to be able to create a circle of green ripples.

The elders did not dare to resign. Although Wang Xiqing was surprised that her grandmother gave her personal jewelry, she still took it happily.

When several men in the house saw this, although they were surprised, they only thought that Mrs. Xie loved her granddaughter and gave her some jewelry as a dowry in advance. He was born as a boy of the Wang family, and it is rare to have to grab jewelry with a girl's family.

The two ladies of the Wang family, Fan and Sun, glanced at each other, and some disbelief flashed in their eyes. The two have been married into the Wang family for decades, and they have never seen Mrs. Xie take off this earring, but now they give it gently, I'm afraid it's .......

Especially the eldest lady Fan, who is the wife of the sect, even secretly glanced at Wang Xi, most of the things of the Wang family, when the family is separated in the future, will fall on her own big house. Now, my mother-in-law gave such valuable jewelry to her granddaughter in front of everyone, what does this mean? Do you believe that you can treat this niece well? Or is it already preparing a dowry for the light?

"Fan's, Sun's," Mrs. Xie of course saw the small movements of her two daughters-in-law, took a sip of tea, but said lightly, "These earrings are my mother's dowry, not Wang's, these are all on the list." Now that I've given it lightly, you won't have an opinion. ”

"The daughter-in-law doesn't dare." Seeing this, the two ladies hurriedly shook their heads. Since it is the dowry of Mrs. Xie, her mother-in-law, it is natural that her mother-in-law will give it to whomever she wants. I don't have a biological daughter anyway, so Fan can't be unhappy with this mother-in-law.

Seeing that the two daughters-in-law had no opinions, Mrs. Xie took Wang Xiqing's hand and stood up, "You all go down and play by yourself." This year, it's okay to stay here and stay with me for the New Year. With that, he turned to the inner room.

The people outside have already prepared firecrackers and other things for the New Year, and there are a few sons this year, and the people are looking forward to it, and they don't know how much money the housewife will reward for a while. The people waiting outside the house, waiting for a few old men and ladies to go out, suddenly surrounded them, New Year's greetings, saying auspicious words and saying auspicious words, for a while the atmosphere was much more lively than in previous years.

Ningdeyuan Temple, in the inner room.

Mrs. Xie waved her subordinates away, leaving Mama Zhou alone to serve in the house.

"Gently, you have to keep these earrings." Mrs. Xie had a rare look of caution.

"Grandmother, what's so unusual about these earrings?" Wang Ji took out the earrings lightly, and when she looked at them carefully, she found that there seemed to be another mechanism at the bottom of the earrings.

"Grandmother, what is this?" Wang Ji picked up the earrings lightly and looked at Mrs. Xie suspiciously.

"Gently, do you know about Qiantong Yinzhuang?" Mrs. Xie did not answer her granddaughter's words, but mentioned another matter.

"Hmm." Wang Ji looked at her grandmother lightly and nodded, of course she knew about this Qian Tong Yinzhuang.

Qiantong Yinzhuang has existed for hundreds of years, and it is the largest silver village in the entire Great Jin Dynasty. It is said that in the various state capitals of the Great Jin Dynasty, there is a semicolon of the silver village, as long as the person holding the silver ticket, no matter which semicolon it is, he can take out real money and silver.

Qiantong Yinzhuang is so powerful, of course, outsiders have guessed the master behind it, but there are many speculations, but no one has responded.

Today, my grandmother, Mrs. Xie, specially mentioned this silver village, could it be...... An idea came to Wang Jiqing's mind.

"Grandmother, could it be that this money is from our royal family?"

Mrs. Xie nodded and shook her head again.

"To be precise, this Qiantong Yinzhuang belongs to all the Jiangnan families. Hundreds of years ago, when this silver village was formed, the Jiangzhou Wang family and the Jinling Xie family each contributed 40% of the money, and the other 20% was funded by the other 18 families in Jiangnan. Mrs. Xie glanced at her little granddaughter again, "This earring on your hand is one of the tokens of Qiantong Yinzhuang." With this token, you can directly withdraw millions of taels of cash at the semicolon of each money pass bank. ”

"Grandmother, then I can't ask for this earring, this earring should belong to the whole family, or leave it to my brothers." Wang Ji easily wanted to return the earrings. This is a thing of the Wang family, how can a woman who is going to marry sooner or later accept such an important thing in the family.

"Gently, this is not the token of the Wang family." When Mrs. Xie saw this, she knew that her little granddaughter had misunderstood. This child is always so sensible, and what she likes the most is that Wang Ji knows how to measure lightly.

"When I got married, the Xie family gave me the molecule of Qiantong Yinzhuang as a dowry, and this is the token of that component." Mrs. Xie smiled and handed the earrings in her hand to her little granddaughter.

"Otherwise, do you think that with the weight of the Wang family's four components, you can only receive a million taels of cash?" How can the heritage of a thousand-year-old family be just a million taels of silver.

"Grandmother, this is your dowry, and it should be left to your uncle and brothers, I still can't ask for it." Wang Jiqing did not stretch out her hand.

"Silly girl, this is grandmother's dowry, grandmother can give it to whoever she wants, hurry up. Otherwise, my old wife will be angry. Mrs. Xie deliberately straightened her face.

Seeing this, Wang Ji reached out and took the earrings. Maybe it's the New Year, don't sweep your grandmother's excitement now. Keep it yourself, and when you have the right opportunity in the future, you can return this earring to your uncle.

"Good boy," Mrs. Xie picked up the earrings with her own hands and brought them to her little granddaughter. "It's so pretty, my light girl is a big girl."

At this time, the sound of firecrackers outside the house continued to sound, and the new year arrived.
