Chapter 67: Elaborate

No one helps him, and Pei Lao Er doesn't want anyone to help him. Early the next morning, they drove the ox cart to pull the Zhao family, and the couple went to Fucheng.

didn't go to the Song family to question first, but went to the Zhang family's shop written on the dowry list of the Song family, wanting to see what tricks the Song family was playing.

When I searched for it by address, Zhang Kee's shop had just opened.

It is also a north-south goods store.

However, the shop is much larger than that of the Song family. Five open-door, two-storey small buildings. Above the shop door, a large black lacquer brass plaque hangs high in the middle, which is very magnificent.

The floor in front of the door is also large. Four or five young men were busy going in and out, erecting temporary shelves on the floor, so that they could take out the old goods in the shop and sell them at a cheap price.

When Pei Lao Er saw this frame, his legs had already softened by three points.

He had never entered such a magnificent shop. Now although he has three hundred taels of silver, he still holds the dowry list in his hand.

After standing there for a while, he raised his feet and entered the shop.

A young man in the shop had already noticed him, and when he saw him come in, he hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically, and asked attentively, "What do you want to buy, this guest officer?" ”

If he can't buy it, he doesn't want to buy it!

Pei Lao Er was annoyed in his heart, but he reluctantly handed over the dowry list with his hand, and said weakly, "Look at the things on this, do you have them in your shop, and if so, what price will they sell." ”

The young man responded with a smile and said "yes" and took the list, opened it and looked at it twice, but was stunned.

He turned back to another young man who was about ten years old and dressed like a tent, "Hey, Brother Yingguang, why does the words on this post look so like you wrote it?" ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, looked Pei Lao Er and his wife up and down, showed a little smile on his face, walked over, and took the list in the young man's hand. Glancing at it, he said, "That's exactly what I wrote." ”

What did he write?

Pei Lao Er was stunned, and looked at this young man with eyes in confusion, what does this mean? Isn't this the dowry list given by the Song family?

The young man laughed. It was written by Brother Song Jiaxian. ”

I swas.

Pei Lao Er nodded clearly, but he always felt that something was wrong.

Why should someone else write the dowry list given by the Song family?

In the midst of his doubts, the young man continued, "I have written more than this list. There is another one. As he spoke, he looked at Pei Lao Er with a smile.

Pei Lao Er Mumu's head suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he hurriedly asked, "But what about the dowry list?" ”

The young man smiled and nodded.

"Oh~~" The young man suddenly realized, and smiled with the young man, "This is the one you said, the young master of the Song family almost embarrassed you to death." ”

The young man nodded.

Pei Lao Er was even more confused, what the hell is going on?

What's so hard about writing this list?

Seeing Pei Lao Er's sluggish face, the little guy said with a bit of schadenfreude. "There's nothing difficult about writing this list. The difficulty is that the things listed in the two lists must be exactly the same! As if he didn't understand, he added, "It's not a penny!" ”

The young man thought he was talkative, and hit him on the head with the dowry list in his hand, and laughed and reprimanded, "Don't hurry up and get to work." ”

The little man walked away with a grin, looking back as he walked, looking at Pei Lao and his wife laughing.

The young man waited for him to go away. Only then did he make a gesture, "Dare to ask if you are here to buy goods?" If so, please sit inside, and I'll tell the guy to follow the list and get them one by one. ”

Pei Lao Er and Zhao were greatly panicked. Hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, it's not." ”

The young men did not care, but returned the list to them, "If there is a need, let me come." "Say it. Walked away.

Pei Lao Er and Zhao's mind suddenly left Zhang's shop.

Standing on the side of the street, looking at the bustling street, it feels like a dream. And it's a nightmare that doesn't seem to wake up!

After a long while, Zhao muttered, "What's going on, do you understand?" ”

Pei Lao Er faintly understood. Because I figured it out, my face became even more ugly. is more unacceptable than Song Dayong deliberately cheating him.

"This dear, let's not get married!" His expression changed for a while, and Pei Lao Er said horizontally.

Zhao glanced at him blankly, "I've been hired, and if I don't say it's over, I won't end it, isn't it a joke?" ”

"Whoever loves to laugh laughs." Pei Lao Er waved his arms frantically and walked towards the ox cart. He didn't let him get a penny, and he had to accompany his daughter in for nothing, this kind of thing that lost his wife and broke his soldiers, who likes to do it!

Zhao raised his leg and followed, "But...... What about the girl, what about the girl? ”

mentioned Pei Rao, Pei Lao Er came up with an evil fire, raised his foot and kicked at Zhao, "I said a long time ago, if it is a joke, I will not follow you." ”

Zhao was unguarded and was kicked by him. But because of the difficult thing in front of him, he couldn't raise his strength to get angry at all. Not only did he ignore him, but patted the dirt on his body and got into the ox cart by himself.

The young man who received Pei Lao Er and his wife saw it inside the door, and the young man who looked like a tent, "I don't know if his family will go to retire." ”

I wondered again, the Song family didn't know what they thought, and it was too late for others to cover up their family affairs in this way, and his family publicized it with great fanfare, as if they were afraid that others would not know.

No, it's only been a few days since this family affair was launched, and the entire Nancheng area has spread all over it.

Usually, the wife of the Song family, who had dealings with her wife, did not show up for several days.

It's the old man Song and the eldest young master of the Song family, what should I do. There are those who don't know the importance and ask face to face. There was no annoyance on their faces, not as if they were pretending not to be annoyed, but really not annoyed.

The father and son acted like this, which made everyone sympathize.

The young man shook his head and sighed as he thought of the discussions he had heard in recent days. If this family business is stopped, then the three girls of the Pei family will still have a way to live. If you insist on getting married, you can't go out, and you can't drown the spitting stars when you go out.

While he was thinking about it, he saw the young man who looked like the tent and walked away.

The young man hurriedly pulled him and said, "Brother Yingguang, do you think the Pei family will withdraw from their relatives?" ”

The young man laughed, and raised his hand to give him a burst of chestnuts, "Eventful." What do you ask so much? ”

The young man said, "Isn't this a grievance for the eldest young master of the Song family?" ”

"He's still going to fight you for him?" The young man laughed and turned to leave. Again pulled by the gossip heart of the little guy. "Why do you say that the eldest young master of the Song family wrote two lists of equal price? I say that the dowry should be doubled. Didn't that family just take a fancy to the Song family's money? took the opportunity to blackmail them. ”

The young man laughed and slapped him again, "What's wrong?" Then Song Xian is the one who would do such a thing? "Isn't it too cheap for them to just pay for money?

The young man couldn't have imagined such a far-reaching. Then he said, "Then you can't just let them go lightly." In case they take the dowry of the Song family and sell it as a dowry. I didn't eat at all. At this point, the young man paused, and said, "Oh." No, I sent a big living person over for nothing. ”

As he spoke, he snorted, "But who is rare?" ”

The young man didn't bother to pay attention to him, but the young man was worried about this matter, and kept asking him if the Pei family would quit his family.

Then the young man said, "If they are willing to retreat, they will lose one person now." If you refuse to retreat, there will be suffering in the future. "Say it. Turned and walked away.

The young man muttered puzzled. "What's there to suffer if you don't go back?" I also went to my own business.

****

On the Pei family's side, after Pei Mingyuan's father and son left, Pei Yan and Pei Laosi took a few little dolls all day long, either busy taking care of melon seedlings, or going to the mountains to dig for everyspring, or taking a few small ones to pick tea on the mountain, and occasionally, they had to take time to go to the stream to catch some willow leaf fish and come back. Poured into the two half-broken abandoned large water tanks at home, and the fish intestines were fattened.

The family is busy all day.

What happened to Pei Lao's second family, Pei Yan didn't know about it at first. Later, Huang, who had heard the gossip intermittently, said. I also know probably.

Pei Lao Er learned from Fucheng that the dowry and dowry given by the Song family were carefully calculated. Penniless. came back and made a fuss about going to the Song family to withdraw from his relatives.

asked Lao Pei Tou to hit him with a stick and discounted the stick. said that he should also respond to this family matter, and he should not also respond, and his family can't afford to lose this person with him.

And he said, If you refuse to do so, it is all right. Either give Pei Rao a rope, or send it to the sister-in-law's temple, anyway, there is no such person in the old Pei family.

Pei Lao Er ate the beating, and the silver in his hand was not covered and he had to send it back, not to mention, he had to paste a lot of silver into it. Where can he afford it?

But Pei Rao is a big living person, and she can't really send her back to the West with a rope. Besides, marrying into the Song family always has a hope. If he doesn't marry, then he will be called a chicken and a flying egg.

I had to start the idea of a dowry gift from the Song family. I went to Zhang Ji in Fucheng again, and asked the Song family that the dowry was also purchased from Zhang Ji. I thought about returning this dowry to Zhang Ji in exchange for a dowry.

The account room named Liu Yingguang responded to it. It's just that when the goods go out and want to return, they have always been collected at a discount.

When Pei Lao Er heard it, he wanted to discount the price of thirty percent, which was more than sixty taels of silver. That's not all, he has such good things, but he is vigorously showing off, eating cloth and clothes, etc., and has used some of them.

If he counts these, he will have to put another seventy or eighty taels of silver. Unwillingly, he asked the next house, and as soon as they heard his intentions, they immediately drove him out of the shop.

Pei Lao Er, who had no way, was so angry that he went home and scolded Zhao's Pei Rao.

According to Huang, listening to the movement in the house, it seems that he has also moved.

Su Shi was puzzled and said, "Brother Xian'er, what do you want to do?" He also said that Pei Lao's family, "It's not good to take the opportunity to withdraw from the family, and you have to make a big deal about it." ”

Huang shook his head first and said, "I can't understand the thoughts of this big nephew now. But ......," Huang said with a smile, "the second brother's mind is clear and unwilling!" Even the girl is going to die or live, and she refuses to withdraw her relatives. ”

Pei Yan was very speechless, but if anyone has a brain, who doesn't hurry up and slip away when he sees this? ! It's good for them, the Song family has given such an attitude, and I don't know where he has the confidence, thinking that after a long time, the Song family will lose their anger, and they will benefit from money? !

Because of Song Xian's current approach, he couldn't help but think that he asked Pei Rao if he insisted on marrying him that day. If you are married, there is naturally a solution to getting married. If you don't get married, you naturally have a coping strategy for not marrying.

I'm afraid it's the same right now.
