The old lady didn't speak, but the eldest lady was a little surprised and said, "All the property of our family is only five or six hundred thousand taels?" Second brother, did you miscalculate? Our ancestral house and the gold, silver and jade at home are worth at least 100,000 taels together! ”

Ye Chengde glanced at her: "How many sister-in-law think?" ”

The eldest lady realized that she had said the wrong thing, and smiled wryly, but the words in her mouth were not so good: "I thought it was useless, the second brother said that it was as much as it was!" ”

Ye Chengde's eyebrows jumped, and when he looked back at the eldest lady, the eldest lady pouted and looked unhappy.

The old lady glared at one of them: "I know that you are distressed about the silver, don't worry, the silver in the public does not need to be touched." I've already thought about it, Ling'er's dowry doesn't want you to pay a penny, and the 100,000 taels will come out of my dowry. ”

"Ahh Ancestor! Everyone exclaimed in unison, and their faces were shocked but completely different. The eldest man said: "Then how can it be done, ancestor, that is your coffin book, if you really come out of this 100,000 taels, I'm afraid there will be nothing left!" ”

When the eldest lady heard this, she hurriedly said: "Ancestor, Zhilan is your granddaughter!" You...... How can you only care about outsiders and ignore your own children and grandchildren? ”

The old lady glared at the eldest lady and said lightly: "Eldest and second, when you got married, I gave you 50,000 taels from my marriage, and half of the remaining 100,000 taels is my coffin book, and half is Ling'er's mother's dowry, so don't worry about any of you, this matter is decided!" ”

"Ancestor!" Everyone still persevered, and the old lady shook her head and sighed:

"Alas, you know that you feel sorry for Yinzi, and you don't want to think about what kind of family the Jia family is, after all, Ling'er married as the daughter of our Ye family. If Ling'er's marriage is too cold, not only will she be unstable in the Jia family, but it will also be a shame for our Lin family.

Boss and second, you are all knowledgeable, take care of your own daughter-in-law, don't be blinded by those petty little li, I'm tired. Everyone's at peace! The old lady stood up with the help of Mother Wu's hand and walked slowly to the back hall.

The remaining few were silent for a long time. The eldest man said: "Mother's words are not unreasonable, everyone is scattered!" ”

The second master nodded and asked the people in his room to leave first. The eldest lady was still unfinished: "Master, let's really just watch that girl take out the coffin of the old ancestor?" ”

The eldest lord glared at her, and said in a stern tone: "This matter is settled, and the affairs of the family will be taken care of by the daughter-in-law." You can take care of Zhilan's marriage. ”

The eldest lord strode out, and the eldest lady hurriedly followed: "Master." Aren't you resting today? Would you like to go and sit with me? Master! Master! ”

Looking at the figure of the eldest man leaving quickly, the eldest lady hated her teeth so much, Zhilan came over and pulled her sleeve and shook it: "Mother, what should I do?" ”

The eldest lady gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go back to the house." ”

The eldest lady angrily took Zhilan back to the courtyard. Just sat down and didn't have time to take a sip of tea, a mother-in-law came over and muttered a few words in her ear, and the eldest lady removed the teaglass: "Really? ”

"It's true. This is still the news that Qiu Ming's little girl accidentally said and leaked. ”

The eldest lady put the teacup on the table with a bang and stood up at once. Rubbing his hands together and walking around the house with some excitement: "It's better this way!" It's so much better! ”

"Mother, what's good?"

The eldest lady glanced back at Zhilan, and suddenly her eyes lit up, by the way, she wanted to run anyway, why didn't she do it? In this way, our Zhilan can not only marry into the Jia family, but also get the 100,000 taels of silver from the ancestors......

Carefree! It's so exciting! The eldest lady was so happy that she almost clapped her hands and laughed, Zhilan frowned: "Mother, it's time for you, you can still laugh!" ”

The eldest lady sat down with a smile and took Zhilan's hand: "Lan'er, my daughter, my mother has thought of a plan for you to get the best of both worlds, and you will marry you well, are you satisfied?" ”

Zhilan looked at the eldest lady in surprise: "What's the best of both worlds?" ”

"This ...... I won't tell you just yet. Lan'er, what do you think of the three sons of the Jing'an Hou family? ”

"Huh? The third son? Mother, I heard you right, right? ”

"Yes, it's the third son."

Zhilan pouted in disgust: "If the second son is barely passable; But the third son, mother, you don't know that the third son is a paralyzed person, right? ”

"How could I not know, but after all, the Hou Mansion has a title, and it doesn't take much effort to keep it rich forever, even if it is a concubine, it is not too much to be worthy of a family like us."

"What's not an exaggeration, mother, what do you want to say?"

"I said, I just received a post from the third prince of the Hou Mansion proposing marriage a few days ago, why don't we just push the boat down the river and just respond to it."

Zhilan jumped up suddenly: "Mother, are you crazy?" Do you want me to marry that paralyzed man? ”

The eldest lady glanced at her with disgust: "It's not big or small, how can you talk to your mother?" How can my mother treat you badly since I was a child, and you can't trust your mother so much? ”

Zhilan puffed out her face and muttered, "Didn't you say that you wanted to respond to that paralyzed man?" I'm not going to do it, you're going to do it yourself. ”

"Dead girl, what did you say? It's getting worse and worse! Bring your ears to me, and I'll tell you. Mrs. Lin muttered in Zhilan's ear for a while, Zhilan was surprised at first, and then slowly had joy, and then she was happy, she jumped up and hugged Mrs. for a while: "Mother, Lan'er knows that you love Lan'er the most!" That...... Then go ahead and do it! ”

The eldest lady poked her forehead with a smile: "Stinky girl, no one can say anything before this is done, otherwise all your efforts will be wasted, you know?" ”

"I know, don't worry, mother, you go, go quickly!"

The next evening, Ling'er, who was drinking tea in the courtyard, saw Qiu Ming coming in in a hurry, she walked away from everyone in the courtyard and beckoned Qiu Ming to her side, Qiu Ming said in a low voice: "Miss, the eldest lady has responded to the family affairs of the third prince of the Hou Mansion." ”

"Who is the third prince of the Hou Mansion?"

"He! Usually I rarely hear from him, it is said that the third prince looks and has good morals, the only regret is that the third son is a paralyzed, half-paralyzed, and can only use a wheelchair to travel.

Miss, so many sons and ladies who are healthy and have a good family background and good looks are not chosen, why did they choose this third son of the Hou Mansion? ”

Ling'er smiled brightly: "Isn't the third prince of the Hou Mansion worthy of the young lady in our mansion?" ”

"This ...... How could it be, after all, the Hou Mansion is different from the ordinary eunuchs, even if the third prince can't inherit the marquis, it's still very good to match the young lady of our mansion. ”

"That's right, hehe, the eldest lady is really good at calculating, she's not afraid of stealing chickens and rice?"

"Huh? What the? ”

"It's nothing, you can do this well, go find Chunqiao to receive the reward!" (To be continued)
