In fact, after Zhang Caiyun and Lu Bingwu got married, Zhang mentioned it to Li. Zhang Caiyun bought a dowry, in addition to what he could prepare at home, there were also some things that had to be bought outside. And those things, if you make do with them, can be bought in the town. However, it is of course better to be able to go to the county town to buy it.

Ordinary Zhuang families may not have this condition, but the Zhang family has this condition, but in the past, because of the distance, it was also a trouble for them to enter the city. But now, it's a different story.

With Lian Man'er's family, entering the city is no longer a trouble, but quite convenient. Moreover, Lian Man'er's family not only has a house in the county, but also a shop.

"When I came, I discussed with your father, as well as your brother and brother-in-law, and took Caiyun into the city and bought everything I could. Just buy it from your shop, and you can do it without worry. I know you've got good stuff in that shop. We have brought all the money. Li said with a smile.

"Mother, if there is anything in the shop, let Caiyun pick it at will, and say that there is no money." Zhang said.

"Eldest sister, we have to talk about it." Zhang Wang hurriedly smiled and said, "Go to your shop to pick up something, but we must give this money in the same way." Otherwise, we won't dare to trouble you, and we'll buy it somewhere else. …… Our relatives are relatives, and your business is a business, and this cannot be mixed. ”

As Zhang Wang spoke, he lifted up his shirt and untied a money bag close to him to show Zhang. The money bag was bulging, and inside it were some loose pieces of silver, and a few strings of money.

Lian Man'er estimated that there should be nearly twenty taels of silver.

In the case that other large items have been purchased, these twenty taels of silver are very heavy for the daughter of the Zhuang family.

"I've got the final say on this." Li said, "Give Caiyun the things he bought in your shop, and give the money the same." If you are an aunt, you want to add makeup to Caiyun, that's another matter. ”

The Zhang family is thinking that if they want to buy a dowry for Zhang Caiyun, they will buy it in any shop, so naturally they have to take care of Lian Man'er's shop. Also, you can buy things at your own shop. And the money to buy things must be given, and you can't take advantage of Lian Man'er's family because of this.

And what Zhang thinks about is what he has in his shop, although Zhang Caiyun picks it, it is used as an additional box for her.

Both sides are well-intentioned, and the argument is naturally friendly.

"Mother, just listen to my grandma." Lian Man'er thought about it and said to Zhang.

There are many other ways to make up for Zhang Caiyun, and, considering all aspects of the situation, it is best to make up for it in the dark.

This matter was settled, and after everyone had eaten, Zhang Qingshan and Zhang Qingnian went back, and Li, Zhang Wang, and Zhang Caiyun stayed.

The next day, the Lian family prepared a carriage and horses, leaving only Lian Shouxin to watch the house at home, Xiao Qi followed Mr. Lu to study, and Wulang, Zhang, Lian Man'er, Lian Zhi'er, Li's, Zhang Wang's and Zhang Caiyun took three cars and went to Jinyang County.

Because it was not early to come out of the thirty-mile camp, when it was close to noon, the group arrived at the house in Liushujing Hutong. After settling down a little and eating again, the shopkeeper Jiang brought people over and carried all kinds of objects to choose for them.

"They are all new and good goods this year, and they are the most fashionable." Putting things out in the room, Shopkeeper Jiang said with a smile.

Before coming to the county seat, the big guys had already communicated carefully. What things the Zhang family has prepared, and what are they planning to buy, Lian Man'er knows the budget of the Zhang family, and she already has a number in her heart. She simply opened a list, and as soon as the willow tree entered the alley, she handed it to the shopkeeper Jiang and asked the shopkeeper Jiang to arrange it.

Therefore, the shopkeeper Jiang sent the best goods listed on the list and asked them to choose slowly. This is much more convenient and comfortable than going to the shop to pick and choose.

"Oh, these old things are enough to open a grocery store." Zhang Wang's family saw that there was a kang thing in this place, and smiled happily.

"It's not that old. The best in the shop are here, let's pick whatever you want. Lian Man'er said.

The Zhang family has prepared large pieces of furniture for Zhang Caiyun, and bedding, rulers, jewelry and other items have also been saved over the years. This time, Li and Zhang Wang planned to buy only a few more rulers for clothes, and then choose two more delicate furnishings, and the rest of the money was to make two fashionable pieces of jewelry for Zhang Caiyun.

Seeing that these things came out, the three of them couldn't help but be a little dazzled.

The Zhang family already knew the Li family's plan, so he took Zhang Caiyun to pick it up, picked it up, and then showed it to the Li family and Zhang Wang's family. In the end, the three of them only picked four rulers, two pairs of porcelain vases, and some silk flowers and beads.

"Pick out another set of lacquerware for my sister." Lian Man'er instructed Jiang to shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper Jiang agreed, and after a while, he picked out a set, with four boxes of different sizes, four trays, four small storage boxes, two food boxes, and two boxes, all of which are carved with vermilion lacquer, and the patterns are also very rich and festive, with various origami flowers, pomegranate hundreds, etc

This set of lacquerware is exquisitely crafted, which can be used as an ornament as well as practical.

Lian Man'er picked another vermilion lacquer makeup box for Zhang Caiyun.

"I don't need this makeup box anymore." Zhang Caiyun excused himself, "Man'er, you don't remember, you have already given me a makeup box before, I will use that when the time comes." ”

"I remember that." Lian Man'er smiled, "That's a little small, and it's not festive enough, it's okay for you to use it normally." This is for the bride. ”

Lian Man'er said well, although the makeup box given to Zhang Caiyun last time was also beautiful, the color and pattern were lighter, which was more suitable for little girls. Zhang Caiyun wants to get married, so he naturally wants to change to a bigger and more festive one.

Lian Man'er opened the makeup box layer by layer to show Zhang Caiyun, this makeup box also has its own vanity mirror, whether it is the carving on the outside or the small drawers inside, it is very delicate and beautiful, Zhang Caiyun is more and more happy the more he looks at it.

"If you're rare, stay so." The girl has such a big event in her life, and Zhang Wang saw that Zhang Caiyun liked it, so he nodded.

Zhang Caiyun likes this makeup box very much, but she also knows her own budget. Although she has a spicy temperament, she is also a sensible girl.

Lian Man'er glanced at Zhang Caiyun and knew what she was thinking now.

"Don't worry about running out of money, I'll count it all for you." Lian Man'er said.

Lian Man'er asked Shopkeeper Jiang to calculate how much these things were. Shopkeeper Jiang didn't need an abacus, and after a while, he calculated the price.

When they heard the number that the shopkeeper Jiang said at the end, the Li family, Zhang Wang family and Zhang Caiyun were all shocked.

"Miscalculated, it can't be so cheap." Zhang Wang said. Even if you buy these things from the town, the price should be doubled. And those things are certainly not as good as here. What's more, everyone knows that things in the county are more expensive than those in the town.

"Shopkeeper Jiang's account, how can it be wrong." Zhang smiled.

“… ・・・If you want to sell it to someone else, it is naturally not at this price. Lian Man'er said, "But this is our own purchase, as long as we don't lose money in the shop, can we really make our own money." ”

"That's right." Zhang said.

The few things that Zhang Caiyun picked, the shopkeeper Jiang calculated the price of the purchase, of course, it cannot be compared with the price of the sale.

The Li family and Zhang Wang's family didn't push too much, or even Man'er's words, the shop didn't lose money, and they wouldn't make their money.

After picking up something in the Lianji Department Store, the group came out again and went to the largest jewelry store in the county. Zhang Caiyun has the old jewelry saved by the Li family and the Zhang Wang family, and this is planning to make two more fashionable pieces of jewelry.

Zhang didn't interfere with this, but when they made a choice, they asked the shopkeeper to take out a few sets of heads and faces to pick Zhang Caiyun.

“… ・・・I have discussed with Caiyun and her eldest uncle, and we plan to put a set of makeup for Caiyun......," Zhang said with a smile.

There are very few women in the Zhuang family who have a whole set of heads. But now that Lian Man'er's family is doing well, it is not difficult for them to face a set. The Zhang family, as an aunt, has this intention, and the Li family and the Zhang Wang family will naturally not stop it.

"Your aunt gave it, you can pick your own rare one." The Li family and the Zhang Wang family both said to Zhang Caiyun.

Zhang Caiyun was naturally elated, and asked Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er to help her choose a set.

A large family stayed in the county seat for one night, and the next day, they invited a tailor to come over and cut the clothes for Zhang Caiyun according to the most fashionable style. At the end of the day, the group left the county seat and returned to the camp for thirty miles.

The car entered the courtyard, and Zhang and the others went back to the house first, and Gorou and Lian Man'er watched the people unload from the car. This time I went to the city, not only to help Zhang Caiyun buy a dowry, but also Lian Zhi'er, as well as some things to be used at home, there are a lot of things. Xiao Qi heard that they were coming back in the study, so he took leave with Mr. Lu and came over to join in the fun. Seeing that the things were almost moved, Gorou took the things he bought for Mr. Lu and took Xiao Qi back to the study first.

Lian Man'er walked at the end, watching people move the last bit of things into the house, and out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw someone probing his brain at the door of the courtyard.

"Who's out there, probing your brain, what does it look like?" Lian Man'er said to Han Zhong's daughter-in-law.

As soon as Lian Man'er's words landed, the hidden door was pushed open, and He walked in with a hippie smile.

She was taken aback when she saw that it was He Lian Man'er, originally, she thought it was a long-term worker or daughter-in-law who didn't understand the rules, and wanted Han Zhong's daughter-in-law to teach her a lesson, but she didn't expect it to be He's. Lian Man'er's family has made it clear that He is not welcome, but He is not an interesting person. She went to Lian Ye'er's house every day to sit, and she had to go around to Lian Man'er's door when she went back and forth, and when she had the opportunity, she would break in.
