Chapter 139: Greetings
It's a few more days. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
With the background of the Qiao family, it is not difficult to prepare a dowry for marrying Lin Huiqing in a short time.
Ruosu was dragged by Qiao Ruojiao to the east courtyard of Moyaju early in the morning, and today is the day to give a dowry.
Qiao Weimeng, Qiao Weixun and Qiao Weiyuan were all there, and Qiao Wei's family folded up the dowry list, except for the four-color sugar, Sijing fruit and many other miscellaneous items, and the bridal fee was two thousand taels of silver.
With the power and financial resources of the Qiao family, this dowry is not much, but it is also a lot, and the continuation of the string is always the continuation of the string, and the rules cannot be broken, so that the bride price is set at a level that is neither high nor low.
Qiao Wei had no objection, and agreed with Chu's approach: "Xuanlin, the dowry gift for the Hou family's wedding to your fourth sister has been sent the day before yesterday, and you also have to serve snacks at the Lin family." ”
Xuanlin is Qiao Weimeng's character, and ordinary men will take words after they reach the weak crown, especially those who read.
Qiao Weimeng was wearing a crow blue pigment face carved silk straight jacket, his face was handsome, as serious as ever, he nodded to Qiao Wei's and said, "This matter is ignored by the grandson, and the grandson will send it over today." ”
"Big brother, don't always keep a straight face, the new sister-in-law will enter the door soon, you look like this, don't scare people." Qiao Weixun leaned over, picked up the peanuts on the table, and threw them into his mouth one by one.
Qiao Weiyuan, who was at a glance, tasted a Junshan silver needle, and even interjected: "What kind of person is the eldest brother, don't you know yet?" It's just a wife, what's so good about it? "He was utterly indifferent to everything.
In his eyes, such a major life event as marrying a wife is still not worth mentioning.
Qiao Wei frowned, and handed the dowry slip in his hand back to Chu: "You two have been idle recently, you want to help your eldest brother more, Wei Yuan is not in a hurry to go to Guozijian to study for the time being, but you?!" She looked at Qiao Weixun, and she really didn't know what to say.
It's almost a weak crown, even if you don't have a fame, you won't even have a home!
Qiao Wei glanced at Wei Mingxiang, who was sitting quietly in the corner, although she was dressed plainly, she was also dignified and elegant.
She knows that this girl is dedicated to climbing high branches, but she is not a phoenix, how can she climb the sycamore?
Wei Mingxiang is knowledgeable and reasonable, and she is timid, such a woman can't make many waves when she lives in the backyard, which is very suitable for Qiao Weixun's temperament.
However, after thinking about it, for now, let's first handle the marriage of Qiao Weimeng and Qiao Ruoyun.
After ordering the dowry to be sent to the Lin family, Chu raised Qiao Ruoyun's money box, which made Tao look displeased, when Qiao Ruowan married into the Wen family, the dowry was far less than the items listed on Qiao Ruoyun's dowry list, and there were twelve gilded bracelets alone.
Qiao Ruoxi just sealed her beloved, and heard that she was favored by the emperor, Tao's posture was not the same as usual: "Sister-in-law, our Qiao family's two rooms have not been separated, everything in this family is handled by the sister-in-law, just with the second master's money, let alone let the second room take out the silver in the box now, when Sister Wan got married, I didn't spare any money." ”
Putting on a poor and sour appearance is Dow's forte, but now that he says this, how he listens to it and how it tastes.
Chu snorted lightly: "Brother and sister, what are you called!" If you can't come up with a few taels of silver, will I force you again? There is no silver in the second room, but when has the degree of food and clothing been broken! Besides, there is no silver in these two rooms, but Aunt Wang in the second room has mountains of gold and silver, dare to ask the entire Qiao family combined, who can be richer than Aunt Wang! ”
Chu's words slapped Tao's face clearly.
First, Tao, as the second-room main room, has no right to govern the private treasury of a noble concubine, and secondly, Chu is also scolding her for being poor.
A married woman, without a decent mother's family, is equivalent to no strong Houton, and it is difficult to raise her head in her husband's family.
Old Mrs. Qiao couldn't see the secret damage between the two of them: "Sister Yun'er's box, you just do it according to your heart." She covered her chest with one hand, and forcibly didn't cough it out, she glanced at Ruosu, thinking that maybe it won't be long before she kicks the west, when her sister Su gets married, who will add a box to her?
Chu and Tao are unreliable, but who can Ruosu rely on?
Qiao Wei made up his mind, leaned on the armrest of the Dongpo chair with one arm, and said solemnly: "There is one more thing I want to tell you, Aunt Wang is not feeling well, and she will rest in her yard recently, although she is only a noble concubine, she is also busy for a few shops of the Qiao family, and she wants Sister Su to be her righteous daughter, and now she received a letter from Bai Qishan, and he has no opinion, so this matter is decided, and after being busy for a while, a banquet will be set up for others to know." ”
Did the old lady help Wang Feng on the surface this time?
Tao had a bad premonition in his heart, if Bai Ruosu became Wang Feng's daughter-in-law, the old lady would definitely try her best to improve Bai Ruosu's identity, and when the time came, she would definitely take Wang Feng away.
In this way, isn't her status in the second room?
"Mother, how can you be so decent?" Tao was very reluctant to see this result, and how did Bai Qishan know that Wang Feng wanted to accept Bai Ruosu as a righteous daughter? Could it be that they had already discussed it?
She said again: "Sister Su has lived in our Qiao family for half a year, I have long regarded her as my daughter, what kind of stepmother do you recognize?" ”
Chu didn't care about the second room, in her eyes, even if the Wang family was rich and rivaled the country, it still couldn't get rid of the vulgar name of the businessman's household, just because of Qiao Ruoyun's addition to the box, she was angry with the Tao family, so she said: "It's still my mother who thinks about Zhou Xiang, Sister Su has no biological mother since she was a child, and Aunt Wang is also childless, so it's a good thing." ”
What is a good thing?
What a good thing to recognize a concubine as a stepmother!
Qiao Weiyuan sneered, but at the same time, he was also happy about the situation that Tao was about to face, others didn't know what Qiao Wei's plan was, but he knew very well, which thing in the Qiao family could hide from him!
"Congratulations to my cousin, no wonder the young owner of the Wang family cares about his cousin very much, there is such a relationship." Qiao Weiyuan said ambiguously, and everyone who listened looked at Ruosu meaningfully.
Among them, Qiao Ruojiao was the most excited: "Cousin, then the son of the Wang family will really become your cousin in the future." She looked into Ruosu's eyes as if she were looking at a small golden Buddha.
Ruo Su didn't expect Bai Qishan to agree to this matter, in the end, he was born in the countryside and did not have a noble hairpin.
She pretended to smile slyly and didn't speak, just afraid that Wang Feng had already started planning to get rid of the Tao family, right? Once the old accounts of the year are revealed, Tao's status will be in jeopardy, and now she is Wang Feng's daughter-in-law, and her grandmother will definitely stand on her side.
Ruo Su had to admit that Wang Feng was the most hidden person in this deep mansion compound.
People can't look at the surface, some people seem to be scheming, some people are honest, big-minded, but in fact it is very likely to be the opposite.
For example, Wang Feng, she calculates every step so exquisitely that most people haven't seen that the show has begun.
---------
I sent a wedding reminder, and two days later, it was the day of the wedding.
Qiao Ruojiao has always liked to be lively, Qiao Weimeng got married, and the Chu family was busy with internal affairs, so she didn't have the time to detain her.
On this day, the genius was bright, the mist left at night outside had not yet dissipated, and there were still dewdrops hanging on the petals, Qiao Ruojiao had already dressed up, and called Ruosu and Wei Mingxiang to get up with great fanfare.
"Cousin, you should hurry up, you won't be able to catch up with my second brother and third brother's welcoming team when it's late." Qiao Ruojiao shouted.
The Lin family's mansion is about two hours away from the Qiao family, and the people sent by the man still have to stay at the woman's house to eat and drink, if they don't hurry up, I'm afraid they will miss the auspicious time of the church.
Looking at Qiao Ruojiao's posture, she wants to pull Ruosu and Wei Mingxiang together to greet her!
Could it be that there is more meat on the body, and there is a toss of strength?
Ruo Su pinched a few taels of flesh on his body, thinking that this body was always out of strength, and he was afraid that this was the reason.
When Ruo Su and his party arrived at the shadow wall, Qiao Weiyuan and Qiao Weixun were already riding on the tall horses, and most of the people who greeted the relatives were led by the bride's brother-in-law, and the groom was waiting at home.
"Second brother, third brother, have you waited for a long time? I've been fine for a long time, it's all the two of them procrastinating. Qiao Ruojiao struggled to clear up the facts.
The dawn of the early morning has come out, and the semi-white light shines on Qiao Wei Yuanqingjun's face, and even the delicate eyebrows and eyes are dyed with halos, inadvertently blurring Ruosu's vision, Brother Yuan has grown up completely, and now he still has the fame of lifting people, you must know that lifting people can already be county commanders, I really don't know what kind of Yuan Hong will rely on horses in another three years.
He wore a snow wool silk cloak today, and the autumn wind swept through, and he was sassy and handsome.
Ruo Su quickly lowered his head, Qiao Weixun rode on the horse and said with a smile: "We have just arrived, and a few younger sisters have really caught up, hurry up and get in the carriage, if you miss the hour, the eldest brother will ask me again." ”
It seems that Qiao Ruojiao has long been in collusion with Qiao Weixun, and even the carriage for women's travel has been prepared.
Qiao Ruojiao climbed into the carriage, and Ruosu and Wei Mingxiang would always fall behind her. Wei Mingxiang can be regarded as a decent physique, but Ruosu, with the help of Qiaoyun, barely stepped into the carriage smoothly.
Qiao Weiyuan caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye, and there was another mocking chuckle.
In fact, it's no wonder Ruosu, she doesn't want to be so delicate and weak to be pitied, could it be that Chu Chen has to take the medicine she found?
The master said that she was originally a difficult child, and she was not as healthy as an ordinary woman, if Chu Chen hadn't gone to him in time to ask for the recipe, she was afraid that she would have drunk Meng Po soup and would be reincarnated again.
The carriage staggered out of Shiqiao Hutong, the kui trees on both sides of the street had begun to lose their leaves, Qiao Ruojiao opened the curtain and looked around, even when she saw the stall selling cooking cakes, she would swallow her saliva.
When he arrived at a noodle restaurant, he was clamoring to come down to eat a bowl and then set off, Qiao Weixun was also unreliable, and he really relied on Qiao Ruojiao.
The noodle shop is not big, but it is clean. Ruosu and the others went to the private room on the second floor, and the rest of the greeting team was waiting on the side of the road.
Looking out of the window of the private room, you can also see the terracotta and horses of the East City and the cold stone carvings on the periphery.
"Fifth sister, you.... It's better to eat less. Qiao Weixun couldn't help it, but he still said it, if there is a girl in the family who can't get married, it is not a glorious thing for him.
Qiao Ruojiao was holding a bowl of noodles with some beef, topping with a spoonful of sauce and sprinkling a thin layer of sesame seeds, which looked very good. Qiao Ruojiao's eyes widened and asked, "Why did the second brother say that?" ”
It's so unconscious!
Everyone smiled one after another, Wei Mingxiang covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and she was afraid of smiling unsightly, for fear of revealing a little flaw into the eyes of others.
"Cousin Su, you should eat more." Qiao Weixun personally sandwiched a few pieces of pickles for Ruosu, this kind of appetizer is rarely seen in Qiao's house.
Qiao Ruojiao was dissatisfied again: "Third brother, you comment, the second brother is too partial, why does my cousin want to eat more, but I can't eat it?" ”
Qiao Weiyuan chewed a slice of beef lightly, and when his thin lips were raised, he said with an unknown smile: "The fifth sister is too worried, and the cousin is just a ...... Hehe, it's nothing, you just eat, who can not let you eat! ”
At this time, the sun was already hanging in the air, Qiao Weiyuan opened his arms, went to the cloak on his body, and the Fu Lin behind him immediately caught it, he was only wearing a honey-colored silk straight jacket, and his body line was thin and straight.
It's been an hour, and they're all early risers, so it's inevitable that they'll be hungry. However, it seems that they are not the only ones who want to borrow a bowl of noodles to fill their stomachs.
A row of Jinyi guards dressed in Cheng Ziyi and embroidered spring knives across their waists quickly made the noodle shop smell the needles dropping, and even the sound that they used to make when eating noodles suddenly disappeared.
Qiao Ruojiao raised her eyes and saw Wen Tianyou's cold face, and quickly hung her head, and said in great distress: "Why are you so unlucky!" Second brother, third brother, let's leave quickly. ”
Qiao Weixun naturally agreed, dropped a piece of broken silver and got up, but was suddenly stopped by Qiao Weiyuan, and he said in a loud voice: "Second brother, the noodles haven't been eaten yet, what are you doing in such a hurry?" He seems to have an extremely prejudiced view of Wen Tianyou, but this is not the point, the point is that he didn't take Wen Tianyou in his eyes at all, and even the Qiao family was polite to the commander, which shows how obvious his attitude towards Wen Tianyou is an enemy.
Ruo Su didn't want to watch him get into trouble: "Cousin, business is important, if you don't leave, I'm afraid that I will miss the time, and I still have wine to eat when I go to the Lin family." She looked at Qiao Weiyuan with big watery eyes.
Qiao Weiyuan turned a blind eye, and he didn't know what he thought, so he cooperated with Qiao Weixun to stand up, and walked out of the private room without looking back.
This group of people is really eye-catching, Jinyi Wei must have noticed them, Wen Tianyou's subordinates bowed down and whispered in his ear: "My lord, look! I heard that the eldest son of the Qiao family is marrying the only daughter of the Inspectorate Imperial Historian today. He thought to himself, why didn't you go to Qiao's house to congratulate?
Wen Tianyou raised his eyes, and when he glanced at Ruo Su and the others, he happened to collide with Qiao Weiyuan's gaze, and the gazes of both of them were extremely cold and fierce.
They belong to the same kind of people, decisive, cold, and unconcerned.
It seems that except for power, everything in the world has nothing to do with them.
Qiao Weixun felt the tension between the two, and thought that it was because of Qiao Ruowan, so he greeted Wen Tianyou respectfully, and pulled Qiao Weiyuan away.
On a good day, you must not provoke the evil spirits.
"Stop me!" Wen Tianyou's strong voice seemed to be thirsty for a long time, and it seemed like he hadn't spoken for a long time, and he looked a little hoarse. (To be continued.) )
