Chapter 38: Retirement (2 more)
Liu Xuan's words really shocked everyone, you must know that when it comes to a family matter, ordinary people will give one or two lines of silver at most, and Liu Xuan's retirement post is ten taels! Who among the matchmakers here doesn't have three or two pieces of Geng stickers in Liu Xuan's hands?
Besides, she is willing to compensate the son who retired the Geng post fifty taels, how many good people are among the ten Geng posts, can they still know? I'm afraid that I know that I can get fifty taels of silver without their mothers-in-law coming forward, and those people will also come to collect Geng posts.
All the matchmakers are full of joy, this old lady of the Liu family really left a lot of money and silver when she died, looking at the sixth miss of the Liu family is such a big deal, ten Geng posts are five hundred taels, plus one hundred taels of silver for their mothers-in-law, this six ladies of the Liu family are casually six hundred taels of money, which makes them not surprised.
Moreover, these six young ladies are so generous, if they do their errands well and leave a good impression, when these six young ladies say that they are married, they may be able to find themselves, and then the money and silver will be less?
Several matchmakers all had such thoughts, and immediately agreed very happily, and stepped forward to take back the Geng post they brought, and their words were very polite when they said goodbye: "Miss Six, although rest assured, the mothers-in-law will definitely do a good job of the errand, and never let the young lady worry." ”
Liu Xuan thanked very politely, and personally sent these mothers-in-law to the door, and only then did she turn around when the matchmakers left, and then returned to the other garden through the back door, and when she left, she thought about it and instructed the maids: "If the matchmakers come again, let them go to the other garden to find me." ”
She is about to move out of Yizhou, originally lived in Beiyuan as Zhang, the reason why she used Zhang's identity was because the Liu family was in ruin, and everyone avoided it, but now that a qiē has passed, in the eyes of outsiders, Liu also received the prince of Ning Wang, so there is no need to hide people's eyes and ears with Zhang's identity.
The matchmaker went out of Liu's house and took the Geng post to retreat, most of the people who came to propose marriage were not productive and had bad habits, the reason why they went to propose marriage was nothing more than that Liu Xuan was an orphan girl and raised in the deep boudoir and was stupid and deceitful, what if she listened to the matchmaker's boast and decided to marry herself? Not to mention that he earned a woman for nothing, he also has a fortune.
These people are all the masters who see the money, the matchmaker came to the door and promised to give fifty taels of silver, and at the moment her eyes were straight, and she hurriedly accepted the Geng post, afraid that the sixth miss of the Liu family would regret it, but no, these six young ladies made a move of fifty taels, which is obviously not something that these people can think about. There are also a few people who are not greedy enough to want more silver, but who are those matchmakers?
They have all been in the market for a long time, and they want to please Liu Xuan, so they immediately scolded these people bloody: "You don't look at your virtues!" It's not my mother-in-law, I said you, you want to be knowledgeable or uneducated, you want money or not, if you are a handsome young lady, you should spend money to buy an eye-catching, but you don't take the pee on yourself, mother-in-law, I will sue you today, you will give you fifty taels if you collect this Geng post, and if you don't accept it, you won't accept it, everyone come and comment on it, there are such shameless people in the world! ”
The matchmakers can speak loudly and loudly, and they can ask them for three points if they are unreasonable, not to mention that these people are some scoundrels, the so-called wicked people have their own wicked people, and ordinary people are afraid of these scoundrels, but these matchmakers are not afraid, and these people do not dare to really quarrel with the matchmaker, Yizhou is so big, if the matchmaker is really offended, don't want to marry in this life.
As soon as the matchmaker roared like this, those people shrank a little, but the matchmaker was not a master who would accept it when she saw it, she crossed her waist with one hand and pointed at her nose and continued to scold: "Mother-in-law, I sue you, that sixth young lady's mother-in-law has seen it with her own eyes, that is really a beauty, even Ning Wang Shizi is also eye-catching, just like you, it is purely a toad who wants to eat swan meat!" ”
The matchmaker carried the prince of Ning Wang out, and this Geng post was returned if it was not returned. As a result, Liu Xuan's reputation has grown in Yizhou.
Where there are exceptions, Zhou Matchmaker retired Geng post is not very smooth, she is the most famous matchmaker in Yizhou, the only two red Matchmaker on the Geng post is she to take over, the surname Yuan Xiucai is a little backbone, Zhou Matchmaker took Geng post over, he didn't say anything and then accepted, Zhou Matchmaker said that the fifty taels of silver he refused to ask: "Zhou Matchmaker, please tell Miss Six, Yuan is also a scholar, don't take some copper smell to insult!" ”
Mrs. Zhou responded again and again, and the scholars have some of the arrogance of the readers, as long as she retreats from the Geng post, she will be finished.
What really bothered her was another person, that was Jiang Xiaogongzi, the largest merchant in Yizhou, Jiang Xiaogongzi, this Jiang Xiaogongzi is also a concubine, although the merchant's status is low, but Liu Xuan is also matched, Jiang Xiaogongzi was originally because of Liu Xuan's beauty, and heard that many people are asking to marry, so he was curious for a while and made a fun, which was indispensable, but now Zhou Matchmaker came to retire Geng Post, but he didn't do it.
Mrs. Zhou handed over the Geng post, but he didn't accept it, only looked at it with phoenix eyes: "How much benefit did the sixth lady give you?" You dare to retreat even from my Geng post? ”
Mrs. Zhou couldn't afford to offend this little boy Jiang, and she didn't dare to lie to him at the moment, so she answered honestly: "Miss Six said that she would return a Geng post to her mother-in-law for ten taels of silver." ”
"Ten taels?" Jiang Xiaogongzi smiled slightly: "She is generous." ”
"But it's not all." Mrs. Zhou said on the side: "Miss Sixth also allowed each son who was dismissed to compensate them fifty taels. ”
Jiang Xiaogongzi was slightly surprised, and then smiled again: "She used silver to hit me, and our Jiang family is not a master who lacks silver, so let's take the Geng post and go back, and tell the sixth lady If she doesn't return the Geng post, I will give her a hundred taels." ”
Mrs. Zhou had a bitter face: "Why is this little prince Jiang, aren't you embarrassed by your mother-in-law, the sixth lady has returned all the Geng posts, obviously she has no intention of getting married." ”
Jiang Xiaogongzi raised his eyebrows: "If you don't have it now, it doesn't mean that you won't have it in the future, I heard that she is really beautiful, even Ning Wang Shizi is also eye-catching, this son has two hobbies, in addition to loving silver, he loves beauty, if you let her not return the Geng post, this son will give you another twenty taels of hard money." ”
Mrs. Zhou persuaded again, but Jiang Xiaogongzi had already made up her mind, so she had no choice but to take Geng Ti back, and prepared a carriage to go to Liu's house, and she thought about it again in the carriage, either Miss Six returned the Geng post, or Miss Six accepted the Geng post, anyway, she has money to earn, and she is not distressed at the moment, and this errand thing is running happily.
When the servant took Mrs. Zhou to the other garden, Mrs. Zhou was happy and worried, these six young ladies turned out to be Zhang's family, the owner of a pin of incense!
