Chapter 64: Dowry (30+ Monthly Pass)
When Zhao heard that his daughter had been beaten, not only did he not help Pei Rao, but scolded her, "What are you going to tease her again?" ”
Pei Rao hated and shamed, although there were not many people on the street at that time, but in the end, some people saw it.
At this time, Zhao scolded her again, and her lungs exploded. But her conspicuous careful thoughts were not easy to speak, so she asked Zhao, "What did Yan Yatou ask her mother to give me, why didn't I talk about it?" ”
Mentioning the events of that day, Zhao panicked.
At that time, I didn't believe Pei Yan's words, and I didn't believe that my daughter would push Pei Yu. But if it wasn't for her pushing, it would have been such a coincidence, as if God was helping her.
I think she pushed it again.
But there is no news from the Song family, and she doesn't want to pull out this matter again, so she will cause chaos to her own family, and then it will reach the ears of Lao Peitou and his wife, and it will make waves again.
I didn't ask her.
At this time, when she asked, she stretched out her head and looked around, and saw that everyone was in the house. He shrunk his head and closed the door. He lowered his voice and said hatefully, "Okay, I'll sue you now." ”
As she spoke, her face turned cold, "Let me ask you, is it Brother Yu that you deliberately pushed?" ”
Pei Rao might as well be this matter, her face panicked, and she hurriedly shook her head vigorously. Because he was too surprised, he laughed and laughed. His eyes widened and he looked at Zhao in disbelief, "Why would my mother ask that?" Why am I pushing him so well? ”
But Zhao had already got the answer from her sudden panicked look when she first heard this.
Give her a few more desperate blows, "You yo ......"
Pei Rao stopped smiling and didn't deny it anymore. Let her beat her a few times, and then said lightly, "Ming'er's Song family will come to hand over the dowry list." Mother, think about it, what to marry me. ”
Zhao's raised hand froze in the air, staring at the girl in front of him, who had grown up under the nose of his arms since he was a child, as if he suddenly didn't recognize it.
After a few moments, she muttered, "How did you look like this?" "It's very heartbreaking.
Pei Rao straightened her neck. looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, and replied, "I'm like this, and I'm not born from my mother." Mother-raised, mother-raised? ”
A few words made Zhao Shi feel like someone suddenly stuffed into his heart, and a few big mud bumps with a fishy smell were blocked, cold, and nauseated. Mu Ran sat there and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Pei Rao said uncomfortably when she saw it, "I'm angry." It's just a mouth-to-mouth with your mother, do you believe this? ”
said that he urged her to sort out the dowry. At this moment, the high-spirited Pei Lao Er pushed the door in, and when he saw Zhao sitting there, he urged her, "It's all this time, why are you still sitting idle?" Hurry up and give the girl a dowry. ”
The Zhao family nodded woodenly and went to the south without saying a word.
The dowry gifts sent by the Song family are stacked here. Cloth, head and face, rouge gouache, etc. The house where the couple lived was half full.
Zhao took this and looked at that.
After a while, she said to Pei Lao Er, "The dowry of the girl must be thicker than that of ordinary people." ”
Pei Lao Er sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his legs and rolled his sleeves, and said smugly, "Of course." "The Song family gave three hundred taels of silver.
Zhao said, "The things sent by his family are not easy to use." Go to the carpenter's shop in town. The household belongings used to marry a girl are added as long as they can be used. ”
The common people marry their daughters. Like the inner room in the table in front of the box, dressing table, bed, etc., some will be prepared, but most of them are not fully prepared.
And what Zhao said was to get a whole set for Pei Rao.
This Pei Lao Er has no opinion. The dowry given by the Song family is sufficient, and he must also prepare enough dowry and marry his daughter in a beautiful manner.
Zhao was silent for a while, and then discussed with Pei Laoer, "I don't know if the Song family wants us to ask the carpenter to measure the house in advance." ”
There are also a few wealthy families in Bei'an Town, and I heard that these families are married. The things in the inner room were made by the carpenter to measure the size of the marriage room.
This Pei Lao Er disagreed, and glared, "What are you doing with that effort?" You just have to look at it. ”
Although three hundred taels is not a small amount, but spending one tael less is not?
Zhao thought of his daughter's appearance, those words. The heat in my heart also dissipated a little, and I didn't insist anymore.
Zhang Luo went to the town to pull the quilt for his daughter to buy cotton, greeted the woman in the neighborhood, and prepared to make the bedding.
I just got these things in place.
The matchmaker of the Song family came again, entered the courtyard with a smile on her face, and when she saw the Zhao family and Pei Laoer, she took out the dowry list and handed it to them, "The old man of the Song family said, everything is ready over there, just wait for the dowry to be prepared here, and when you go to Fucheng to inform you, you will see the day of marriage." ”
Pei Lao Er's face was overjoyed, he was so smooth! Busy taking the dowry slip.
As soon as the big red list printed with the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang was in his hands, he had a bad premonition. Why is it so thick? It's as thick as three dowry lists.
When the matchmaker saw him take it, she didn't sit down, and said with a smile, "Don't delay your work." "Turn around and go.
Seeing her like this, Pei Lao Er panicked, and before he had time to look at the list, he hurriedly chased Zhao out.
The matchmaker had already gotten into the car and was telling the guy who was driving the car to turn around. Seeing the two of them, he waved his hand with a smile, "No need to send, no need to send." This is what I have done, and I will continue to come and go in the future. ”
Who's sending you! Pei Lao Er anxiously pushed the Zhao family and asked the Zhao family to keep her.
But Zhao didn't know why he was in such a hurry, and was stunned for a moment, the carriage had already left the Pei family's courtyard.
Pei Lao Er suddenly said angrily, "Why didn't you stop her?" ”
Zhao said inexplicably, "What are you stopping her for?" ”
Pei Lao Er stretched the dowry list in front of her, "Look." ”
Zhao still didn't understand.
I don't blame her for being sluggish. The Song family hired so smoothly and acted so generously. There are no waves in the middle. How could she have thought of the side.
Moreover, the matchmaker had already said that she was going to give the dowry list, and it was not a sudden act, so naturally she couldn't suspect it.
Moreover, Song Dayong has always been a thoughtful and gentle person who is not stingy, who would have thought that he would deliberately give the Pei family a problem.
Pei Lao Er didn't keep anyone, so he had to endure an ominous premonition to look at the list.
This list was densely filled with words, and he didn't recognize many numbers, so he had to call his eldest son Pei Yu, who had also been in school for a few years, and asked him to help him read it.
Pei Yu looked at it roughly and frowned.
Pei Lao Er hurriedly asked, "What are you writing?" ”
Pei Yu lowered his head and flipped over, while Jian Jian said to the two of them, "I want the pen of Huzhou, the inkstone of Qingzhou, the big ring cotton of Wuqing Town, the cotton silk of Tangqi Town, the Wangdian silk and painting silk of Wangdian Town, the Baotou veil of Shuanglin Town, and the spinning silk of Shengze Town." Jiading Town's twill ......" said, he raised his head and said to Pei Lao Er, "This, and also specify the ...... of the 'Water Wave Shengzi' pattern."
Pei Lao Er had never heard of these things, listened blankly for a while, and hurriedly asked Pei Yu, "How much are these worth?" ”
Pei Yu didn't know either, and shook his head.
Pei Laoer's heart slowly sank to the bottom.
He knew that the Song family didn't recognize this family so happily.
It turned out to be hidden in the bottom of my heart, and I didn't want to think about it, I didn't want to think about it. I don't even want to mention it to anyone, for fear that if I mention it, it will become a real worry, but in the end it will be fulfilled.
