Chapter 144, Marriage
The shogunate wanted to do a happy event, and the second sister Mu Lanfang got married. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Mu Chenxue rushed to add a box for the second sister and gave a hairpin with a good meaning. The two sisters have never interacted with each other on weekdays, so they haven't spoken much, but today because the second sister is getting married, they have a long chat. Seeing the fourth sister and the third sister coming, Mu Chenxue had something to do with this excuse, so she went back to the backyard first.
"The fifth sister escaped quickly, could it be that we are afraid that we will not be able to see her box?" The third sister snorted towards the back of Mu Chenxue, and then sat down with the fourth sister.
"The fifth sister sent something good, the second sister might as well take it out, and let us take a look!" The fourth sister saw that what the third sister said was not light or heavy, so she hurriedly took the words, "On weekdays, I see that the second sister has always been cold to the fifth sister, but today I see you talking very happily, not to mention that the third sister is curious, even I want to know what good things the fifth sister sent over, and I got the eyes of the second sister!" ”
"It's nothing, it's just a hairpin, how can there be the courtesy of the fourth sister!" The fourth sister also sent a hairpin, but the color and weight are better than the curtain morning snow, but there is no meaning, the two are compared, the second sister likes the fifth sister's box. But these are just what she thinks in her heart, in front of the fourth sister and the third sister, she doesn't dare to say more. And the second sister is not married after all, and the woman's affairs are still unclear, so she is also very shy, so she only responded casually and did not mention it again.
The third sister saw that the second sister didn't want to say anything, thinking that the fifth sister had sent some bargains, and she couldn't stop laughing. The fourth sister just followed up and asked a few words, and sent her makeup to her, and when she saw that there was nothing wrong with her here, she hurried to see her mother.
The eldest lady was talking to Aunt Xu. Although it is said that the second sister is married, there are some things that although Aunt Xu is a mother-in-law, she can't come forward, and everyone who is sent to usher in it has to count on the eldest lady. Even the dowry was prepared with the help of the eldest lady.
"Okay, I still don't understand your thoughts, although the second sister's dowry is not very rich, but there are thirty-six lifts, and there are a lot of people like us marrying daughters!" The eldest lady's face was painful, and she was depressed all day yesterday when she looked at the dowry and went out. If it weren't for these concubines, these things would have belonged to her daughter.
Aunt Xu had a smile on her face, but her heart was dripping blood. The eldest lady said nicely, the dowry of thirty-six lifts is just some intangible calligraphy and painting utensils, which are not worth a few dollars at all. And the dowry of the shop and the grange, the eldest lady was stingy and only gave one place each, and even she inquired about the land of the grange, and the thin one didn't even grow grain. And the shop is in the most corner of the West Market, not to mention that the business is not good, and no one even wants to lease it.
And what saddened Aunt Xu the most was that the eldest lady didn't even give a tael of silver in the box. Aunt Xu endured for her daughter for so many years, but in the end, she could only see her daughter's dowry so shabby, how could she not be sad and sad.
"Madam, the Cheng family is from a businessman's background, the more such a family is, the more rich they are on the surface, they also value money. If the second sister doesn't even have the idea of pressing the box of silver when she enters the door, what will she use to reward the next person. In case the people of the Cheng Mansion know that our shogunate is stingy, this reputation is not good, isn't it! "No matter how painful my heart is, my daughter's affairs still have to be discussed with the eldest lady before it can be done. She had to fight for some more for her daughter.
"The dowry of 1,000 taels is enough to support the second sister's face, and his Cheng Mansion is not an official eunuch, and his family is in business, so naturally there is no shortage of money. will not point to the second sister's dowry. Besides, the husband of the second sister will seek fame in the future, and he will not have to count on the master to find an official position for him. You! Just worry less, it's better to teach the second sister more if you have this time, how to tie the husband's heart is the most important! "The joke is just a concubine, and the dowry of a thousand taels is too little. The eldest lady looked impatient, and when the fourth sister entered the door, she sent Aunt Xu out.
Xu felt uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to cry in front of people, so he had to go back to his room and turn over all his savings over the years. A total of 200 taels of silver, wrapped in a piece of red cloth, and all given to her daughter to press the box.
The mother and daughter have been dependent on each other for so many years, today is the last day of the second sister's stay in the shogunate, and after today, she is the daughter who got married, and she will become a guest when she comes back. So the mother and daughter had endless words, and they chatted until the time had passed, and they still didn't want to rest. But I was worried that I wouldn't sleep well and wouldn't have the energy to wake up tomorrow, so I endured the sacrifice in my heart and fell asleep.
The next day, before dawn, the people in the house were busy. Mu Chenxue was also called up by Fanghua. When the second sister gets married, she has to resign from her relatives and thank you, so Mu Chenxue can't be lazy.
and Brother Jiu'er dressed neatly, cheered up and went to the upper room together. Aunt Xu watched her daughter salute the eldest lord and eldest lady with a pair of crying and swollen panda eyes, but she, like other aunts, could only stand aside and watch. That kind of loss can only be experienced by those who have experienced it.
Mu Chenxue glanced at her mother, Aunt Cheng's eyes were also red, and there was a trace of sadness on her face, maybe she thought of the fifth sister's marriage in the future, so she felt the same way. Mu Chenxue leaned a few steps towards Aunt Cheng's side, grabbed her mother's hand, and shook her head at her. She has only one mother-in-law, even if she is criticized by the world, she will not go to say goodbye to the eldest lady.
Aunt Cheng is very pleased that her daughter is filial, but this is the rule, even she can't give up for her sentimentality, and let her daughter's husband blame the bride for not being educated.
Brother Jiu'er has been looking at the second sister, he never thought that one day his sister would leave him like the second sister. Raising her eyes was just opposite to the fifth sister's gaze, and there was a trace of panic in her clear eyes.
The dependence and trust of relatives on him made Mu Chenxue very happy. In addition to the joy, there is also an extra responsibility. The reunion of relatives is so short, especially for her, who wears it, it is even less pitiful. Therefore, in the days to come, she should cherish every day with them even more.
After sending the second sister out, Aunt Xu couldn't hold on anymore. Crying and running back to his room, he didn't need her to accompany the banquet anyway. She could indulge in the pain to her heart's content.
The groom greeted his wife, and it was the first time that Mu Chenxue saw the new second brother-in-law, Cheng Xin. Although he didn't talk to this person, he only looked at his appearance, although he didn't have the appearance of Pan An and Song Yu, his five views were also quite manly. But the only thing that made Mu Chenxue feel uneasy was the man's eyes. No matter how polite the behavior is, there is a hint of frivolity.
Men? It's an ancient man again, and it's normal for some of them to have common illnesses. As long as this person has a sense of responsibility and is willing to respect the second sister, this life will go on. (To be continued.) )
