163 Dowry

How many belongings Shu Di has in his hands, the old lady is clear in her heart, she wants to make up 60,000 silver, but she is afraid that the shop Zhuangzi will give more than half, so she endured it and said, "Boss, the big girl is the first, there are Brother Huan'er, Brother Chi, and a few girls behind you, which one doesn't need money to marry, they all give the big girl, what about the little ones in the back?" ”

Shu Di was silent, and the old lady spoke earnestly, "Boss, we don't have to go around those bends when talking between mother and son, if the Zhong family didn't move those crooked thoughts, I don't have to worry about the big girl's dowry at all, now those things are gone, the Zhong family also lost the silver according to the price, the big girl has 200,000 silver in her hand, no one wants her, but she should also take out the silver for this dowry, you have a little bit of self-care for her, no one dares to speak, but you have made a dowry for her like this, how will you live in the future?" What will Brother Huan eat in the future? Do you just live by pointing to that idea in the public school? ”

"I know this."

Before calling Shu Di to come, the old lady knew that he would definitely say something unpleasant, and did thousands of psychological constructions, telling herself not to be angry, but in the end she couldn't help but be angry, "Boss, you also know what is going on in the house!" My old woman asked herself if she didn't treat her badly, is it just for her to marry well, to defeat the foundation of my Wenchang Marquis Mansion for a hundred years? ”

Shu Di was silent, the old lady's forehead muscles jumped suddenly, her chest was panting violently, Mother Lin was so frightened that she hurriedly gave her a good breath, and persuaded, "Master Hou, what the old lady said is reasonable, who in this house doesn't look at the dignity of the eldest girl's marriage?" It's just that you should do what you can, and the situation in Fuzhong is not as good as a year after year. The fourth and eighth masters are still young, and the money is still behind, and the palms and backs of these hands are full of meat. You can't lose anything."

Shu Di was still silent, Mother Lin sighed and stopped talking, she was a big girl, she knew that Shu Di looked gentle, but her temper was the most stubborn, and the old lady couldn't persuade him, let alone her as a subordinate?

The mother and son were at a stalemate. No one refused to give in, just stiffened, and Mother Lin looked uncomfortable. But he didn't dare to speak indiscriminately, so he had to silently recite the blessing of the Buddha.

After a long time, urgent footsteps sounded outside the door, "Old lady." The big girl's side begged to be seen. He said that he was sending something on the orders of the eldest girl."

The old lady let out a long breath and waved her hand, and Mother Lin hurriedly said, "Let her in."

After a while, Yingluo came in unhurriedly, and after saluting, she held the lacquered wooden box in her hand with both hands, "Old lady, the eldest girl took a cursory look at the dowry sent by the Wen Mansion at least 100,000 silver. Except for the dowry that should be given to the eldest girl in the public school, the rest. The eldest girl said that although she was not filial, she could not let the old lady give her dowry, which was 50,000 silver, and the eldest girl's dowry was also bothered by the old lady."

Shu Di looked at the old lady in disbelief, the old lady rubbed her heart tiredly, the letter was sent to Shu Moci by her, if she was interested, she would naturally send the silver obediently, but she failed to persuade her son in the end, so that the relationship between mother and son deteriorated again.

Mother Lin took the box at the signal of the old lady, and took out a bag of silk, loosened the silk, and a brilliant Yingluo appeared in front of everyone, "Old lady, this is the color of the thirteenth master and the girl guessing the lantern riddle last night, it is a rare treasure, not to mention eight or nine thousand silver, the girl knows that the old lady is loving, and will definitely add makeup to herself, the girl has no good things to honor the old lady, and she no longer dares to ask the old lady to make up for herself, but the girl's small treasury has no treasures, I had to take this string of Yingluo to make the old lady give her own box, although it is not very good-looking, but firstly, few people know that this is the color of guessing the lantern riddle, and secondly, yesterday's thirteenth master also joked that he wanted the girl to keep it as a dowry, but it is okay, and please ask the old lady to be considerate of the girl with filial piety."

The old lady felt tightness in her chest for a while, and she said that why is that cheap girl so easy to talk to, she was waiting for her here, is this to show that she disdains her own makeup, and provokes her mother-son relationship by the way?

Shu Di glanced at the string of Yingluo, didn't speak, turned around and left, the old lady barely held back her anger, "My old woman has no shortage of makeup for her granddaughter, and that string of Yingluo was won by Thirteen Lang and the big girl together, and she wears it for a long time."

"But the eldest girl said—"

"Stand back".

Yingluo Yingying is blessed, "The slave and maid retired," the girl is really clever, such a good thing, and won together with the thirteenth master, why add a reason to disgust yourself, such a formality disgusting old lady, things go back to the girl's hand, it is the best.

Shu Moci just wanted to disgust the old lady, and he didn't want Shu Di to go to Chunhui Pavilion in person and tell her that he would return the money she gave to the old lady, and he would not call her wronged.

What is the situation of the Marquis of Wenchang's Mansion, Shu Moci also has a rough idea in his heart, and he also knows that the Marquis of Wenchang's Mansion will never be able to take out such a large amount of dowry, and he looked at him in surprise when he said this.

Shu Di, as always, turned her head at the moment she looked at it, and threw down a sentence, "You're so resting, I'll go first," and hurriedly left.

Is he afraid of himself? Shu Moci frowned and thought for a long time, as she interacted with people more, she was more able to look at people's looks than before, and felt that it was more likely that he was weak and did not dare to face himself, but he was weak-hearted? Is he for his mother's early death, or has he ignored himself all these years, or is his mother's death-

Shu Moqi's body trembled slightly, since the last time she asked Qu Shaozheng to find out the cause of her mother's death, the words "suicide and death" have become a thorn in her heart, although Qu Shaozheng has always guaranteed that her mother did not do anything to be sorry for her father back then, but she also knows that it is not for nothing that she has done to be sorry for her father, it does not mean that she did not have a close relationship with people back then, just like she is now, even if she has a clear conscience, but if she is turned out to meet Qu Shaozheng frequently in private, what awaits her will be the words "not keeping women's morals". ……

"Girl, girl?"

Shu Mo clenched his fists and steadied himself, "What's the matter?" ”

"Steward Lin asks to see".

"Please".

Shu Moci was still hugging Lin Shan who saw Xia, Lin Shan looked at her a little strangely, but he lowered his head at a glance, "The villain has seen the big girl."

"Steward Lin doesn't need to be polite, be careful, and watch the seat."

Lin Shan didn't shirk either, sat down and took the tea on the tassels, and hesitated for a while before speaking, "Does the eldest girl remember the Zhuangzi in the western suburbs?" ”

"Something's wrong?"

Lin Shan exhaled softly, yes, something happened, it was still a big deal, so big that he didn't know if it was a good or bad big thing. (To be continued......)
