Mrs. Gong sent the news that the Jia family was going to come to the door to propose marriage, and the Ji family was going to start working again.

Qing Qing and Yuebai couldn't figure it out, why did Mrs. Ji find the Jia family as her in-laws? Today, Mr. Jia and Mrs. Jia are coming to the house with Mr. Jia, and the mother-in-law outside is busy for a while.

Ying Ning was grooming, and she was preoccupied.

Zitang shouted outside, "You two don't just talk about talking, quickly bring the girl's clothes in." ”

The blue one got up, patted the skirt and replied, "Hey, I'll come now." ”

"As soon as it rained last night, the weather got colder and colder, so the girl should wear more. Yesterday the inner government just sent a new dress, and when the slave maid asked someone to wash it, and then smoked it with herbs, the girl will be able to wear it tomorrow. ”

The golden cinnamon outside is the last batch, it rained last night, the fragrance of cinnamon has faded a lot this morning, an autumn rain and a cold, the weather is getting cooler, my sister is getting married, don't be good on the snow......

The second sister didn't dare to take it lightly because of what happened last time, lest she be happy and sad again, and she didn't have the excitement of the last time.

Mrs. Jia carefully chose a brocade embroidered cardigan skirt that she doesn't often wear on weekdays today, with a golden jade head when she got married, and followed Lord Jia all the way into the Jifu mansion nervously.

Mrs. Gong is dressed festively today, wearing a rose-red treasure pattern dress, full of jade and emerald, and her spirit is refreshing.

Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji met Mr. Jia and Mrs. Jia in the outer hall, and several girls hid in the attic, opened the small window screen and looked out secretly.

After Mrs. Jia respectfully blessed the blessing, she and Lord Jia stood crampedly, and they didn't know where to put their hands. Mrs. Jia's smile lasted all the way, and she was a little stiff at this moment. Lord Jia hurriedly called the eldest son who was standing behind, ": This is the dog Xiuheng, please take care of Lord Ji in the future." ”

Jia Xiuheng hurriedly stepped forward, arched his hand to Master Ji and Mrs. Ji, and asked for peace.

It's really embarrassing to meet the in-laws in the future.

Master Ji spoke first: "Everyone doesn't have to stand, let's all sit down." ”

Mrs. Ji also smiled and said, "In the future, they will be all children and daughters, so you don't have to be restrained, please sit down." Then he ordered the maid to serve tea, and the fruit and snacks were served one by one, and the atmosphere began to warm up.

This Jia Xiuheng is indeed dignified, with a bookish atmosphere all over his body, and his behavior is also polite, whether he has both ability and political integrity is unknown. Yingxiu cracked through the window, and the general saw the hem of the clothes, only to hear the young man's voice humble and polite, the father's questioning, the text he said, he could pick up a few sentences, but he was full of knowledge, so he put a snack.

Mrs. Ji said to Mrs. Jia: "Our second girl's Geng post will be sent to your house by Mother Gong another day, Mrs. Jia will pick a day to be united, my girl's day is big and the hour is big, don't collide with anyone." ”

Mrs. Jia nodded hurriedly and said yes, Mrs. Ji looked at this Wang family as a good talker, and he was cautious in doing things, not the kind of person who was domineering and impatient, and it would be easy for the second sister to have such a mother-in-law.

In the attic, Yingxue saw Yingxiu hiding behind, and quickly pushed Yingyao away to make way, "Second sister, don't be shy, come and see if this Jia Gongzi is good, this Geng post has not been changed, if you don't like it, there is still a chance." ”

Ying Ning glanced at the fifth sister, this is all coming to the door to propose, how can it be changed, unless Yue Lao is a hindrance, besides, this family matter is urgent, and his father nodded, then it is really decided.

Yingxiu was pushed in front of the small window sash, thinking to herself, it doesn't matter if she looks at it or not, it doesn't matter what he looks like, as long as she can treat her well.

But I didn't expect that what caught my eye was a beautiful man, although he was a lifter, but he didn't have half of the nerd air. He sat across from her, replying to Lord Ji's questioning, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, respectful and polite, Yingxiu clearly felt that he had seen it, and hurriedly closed the window.

Yingxue asked anxiously, "Can the second sister see it?" ”

Yingxiu nodded, and replied.

"I said he was good-looking, you can believe it this time."

Yingxiu's face turned red, and she nodded stunnedly, believe it or not, that's it......

Mrs. Gong was busy today, and went to the southern suburbs of Kyoto in the afternoon, and brought a message to Mrs. Yuanwai, saying that Mrs. Ji said that this marriage was just a matter of marriage, and Sister Zhu's marriage should be found elsewhere.

When Mrs. Gao heard this, her intestines also repented, and she only thought that her family had not heard back for a long time, and the Ji family had lost patience. When I look back, I blame my own master, what is there to hesitate about such a good family, if people don't marry back and teach well, where will the relationship between the Ji family go if it is gone? It's no wonder that he only became an outsider.

Gao Yuanwai was stunned by his wife's scolding, and after such a scolding, he also felt that he had made a mistake.

Ji's mother picked a good day and sent Mrs. Jia a beautiful Geng post, Mrs. Jia took the posts of the two people to Mr. Yihe, the eight characters were combined with six characters, overjoyed, and quickly called the matchmaker to send a letter to Jifu, and he discussed with Lord Jia about Naji's door-to-door Lilly.

"I've calculated with my husband, and the sixth day of this month is a good day to decide. Although it is a small decision, the door-to-door gift can't be casual, although we can't compare to the Ji family, but we still have to get by on face. "Although it is a good thing to marry the Ji family, Mrs. Jia always mutters in her heart, the Ji family is well-known, and the wealthy family is also unusual, and the dowry is less for fear that people will look down on it, and the family will lose face, and they can't take it out if they have more of themselves, and it is really difficult to say whether they will marry back a god or a Buddha in the end.

"You can watch and do this gift, you can take as much as you can, this is a major event for the Jia family, and it is also a major event for the Ji family, so many pairs of eyes outside are watching, you can't be laughed at."

Wang nodded, asked people to list a list, this time just a small ceremony, the meaning is done, according to the customs, six quintals of cakes, four Beijing fruits, four color sugar, ten silk and satin cloth, Li Pi, Jin Chuan, gold ingots, gold pendants These must be indispensable, Wang added two more taels of cakes, ten silk and satin, ten gold ingots, this should not be less. One load of the wedding cake is fifty catties, and two more loads are one hundred catties, and the silk and satin cloth, except for the absolute wealthy, she has never heard of more than this.

On the sixth day of the ninth lunar month, the Jia family came to make a small decision and sent a letter of appointment, and this family affair was really decided. The second girl is also a young lady who is waiting to be out of the cabinet.

When a girl gets married, the sisters must add a box. Yingxue and Yingyao embroidered with their aunt all day long, and the needlework was handy, and it took only eight or nine days to make a box of clothes for the second sister, and the patterns were finely embroidered.

But it's a bitter thing.

The Jia family came to make a small decision, and they will pay a big gift in half a month, so how can it be too late.

After waking up from the lunch break, Yingning took the materials to Moyuntang, ready to ask her mother to help choose the color.

I saw that the two aunts and sisters were there, and the mother was asking people to read the dowry list.

"Sixty-four dowries, bedding and bedding, silk and satin cloth, gold and bronze utensils, jade vases and porcelain, pearls and shirts, furniture and cabinets, jewelry, gold and silver ingots, ......."

Jingzhu's jaw was about to fall when she heard it, and her heart was extremely uncomfortable, she had only heard of the sixty-four dowry in the play, and the average wealthy family had half a lift, even if it was the top of the sky, the Ji family's family was rich and rich was something she couldn't have imagined. Sure enough, it is her own daughter, and the son-in-law must not only pick a good one, but also give a good dowry, and pity her motherless child......

Ji's mother has had a headache for the past two days, and today she is just getting better, so she asked someone to start taking care of the dowry, which is a lot and miscellaneous, so she should prepare early.

"This list is only half sorted, and you just happened to listen to it when you came over today, and also helped me as a staff officer." Mrs. Ji said to the aunts, and then asked the eldest girl to read the items that had been set: Red Zhongshan Kudzu quilt, full of beds. Multicolored woven thread blankets, full bed. Big red felt, full bed. Red satin mandarin duck pillows, in pairs. 10,000 years of printed summer tents, full house. Cloud copper when the flower tent hook, in pairs. Colorful flower basket tents, in pairs ......"

This is a good thing to take out alone, Mrs. Ji just wants her daughter to marry without worry, the second sister is a concubine, and the eldest daughter is favored, even the two aunts can't say anything.

Mrs. Ji asked, "How about this bed?" ”

Aunt Qian said: "It's all good things, my wife will not be bad at picking them, and I can add a few more." ”

Mrs. Ji nodded, and Yan Hong continued to read: "Zhucui Shishi round flower, finished product." Beaded emerald style side flowers, in pairs. After the batch of pearl and green time, it is completed. Emerald ring beads, in pairs. Red gold chiseled flower hairpin, into a branch ......"

It is all a complete set of gold and expensive heads, some of which are customized in Baoyu Zhai, some of which are Mrs. Ji's private collections, and some of which are Mrs. Ji's dowry, which are very valuable.

This is just a girl, just like this, isn't the seventh sister a hundred and twenty? Jingzhu thought so, if she got married, how much dowry would Ji's mother pay? Looking at this situation, it must be no less, but it's a pity that she postponed the marriage, otherwise she would be able to live most of her life with this dowry.

Ying Ning listened but felt that it was not enough, ": I still have a pair of red gold heads, it's a pity to put it away, just to add a box to the second sister." ”

This addition is a good thing, Ji Mu nodded and agreed.

At night, Mrs. Ji ordered someone to send two pairs of gold heads, which were made of agate and coral, which were precious jade, which were very valuable. Although Liu closed the door all day long, eating fasting and reciting Buddha, he could see clearly what was going on outside. The second sister also had to do this as a last resort, and she could no longer be wronged in terms of dowry. Mrs. Ji closed her head and asked someone to sort out her private room. She has three shops, two houses, and two fertile fields under her name, and she plans to leave only one house, and the others will add dowry to the second sister. If the imperial court really came to copy the Ji family, those properties were only considered Mrs. Ji's private business, which was brought from her mother's family, and had nothing to do with Master Ji, so she wouldn't copy them together, but no one was there, so why did she leave these things outside her body, it was better to give them to the second girl to ensure that she had no worries about food and clothing.

Mrs. Ji calculated, thought, and sat under the lamp all night.

Imperial City, inside Changchun Palace.

Empress Wei is taking off her court clothes and putting on her bed clothes for the saint. She mentioned to the saint the matter of the five princes marrying concubines": Yan Chen is already sixteen years old this year, and he will go out of the palace to build a mansion in two years, and the candidate for the princess should also be decided. ”

Xuan Han nodded: "It's not small, you are in charge of the six palaces and take care of the aftermath, so naturally you will come to Zhang Luo for this matter." ”

"There is one person in the concubine's heart, I don't know what the saint thinks."

"Tell me."

"The youngest daughter of the Imperial History, I heard that she is smart and virtuous, and her appearance is not bad, what does the Holy Lord think?"

Xuan Han was unexpected, why is she Ji Yihuai's daughter? ": This prince will build a mansion and be crowned king in the future, and the princess will also be the princess in the future. Besides, I've heard that I'm still young, so let's talk about this matter for a long time. ”

The queen was stunned, she didn't expect the saint to disagree. The choice of the imperial concubine does not look at her background, what she is afraid of is that her mother's family is big, and it is a little strange for the saint to say this today. ": What the saint said is, then I will ask people above the second grade to report all the girls of the right age to come up, and pick them together with Nie Guifei."

Xuan Han nodded and took Wei's hand, "The queen is virtuous, and it is my blessing to share my worries in everything." ”

Empress Wei's face turned red and she was a little shy": Being able to be a husband and wife with the saint is the blessing of the concubine. ”

Xuan Han was moved, and reached out to hug Wei into his arms. Wei family since the age of fifteen married into the Han palace as a concubine, and he ups and downs for more than 20 years, the previous dynasty disputes, turbulent, she is virtuous and virtuous, generous, and he shares worries, the harem is well organized, never distract him, get a wife like this, what more can the husband ask for.

Yingxiu sits under the wood hibiscus tree, and it is rare to have a clear sky today, and the autumn is high and refreshing. Yesterday, the Jia family sent a big gift, and they lined up from the lobby of Jifu to the bluestone street outside the door, it seems that Lord Jia has done his best, and his father is barely satisfied. The matchmaker asked for a date, and the wedding day was set on the eighteenth of the next month, which was a good day for marriage and marriage, and the fortune teller said that there was no better day than that day this year. Originally, this year was a disaster year, and it was not suitable for marriage, but my father set this year, saying that the girl was too old to stay, but I didn't expect that in the end, I would marry before Miss Zhao San. It seems that the flowers of this Jifu will not be able to be seen for a few days.

Ying Ning didn't expect the second sister, who had always been cheerful, to be sentimental at this time. She stepped forward, ": It's almost a bride, why do you still have a straight face, don't be laughed at." ”

Yingxiu opened her mouth and said: "I know that there must be something to hide from me at home, but I don't dare to ask." When I get married, sister, you must help me take care of my mother. ”

Ying Ning chuckled in her heart, and her face was still full of spring breeze and flocculent": The second sister must be too nervous, and what happened at home must be a great joy. Besides, isn't your mother my mother, sister, you mean that I am not filial. ”

"Seventh sister, you know I don't mean that......"

Ying Ning's soft hand held the hands of the second sister, looked into her eyes and said, "Sister, don't worry, I am not an ignorant villain, I will definitely be filial to my mother and grandmother." ”

Yingxiu looked at those sincere and beautiful eyes, and nodded vigorously, ": It's cool outside in autumn, my sister is thinly dressed, hurry back to the house." ”

"I'm going back to the house to embroider again, sister, you're getting married, it's hard for me......"

Yingxiu couldn't help but smile when she looked at the seventh sister.
