Chapter 43: The Dowry Shop
Yao Shi was stunned and shook his head: "No." After returning to Beijing, I went directly to the mansion and has not yet gone out. ”
"That sister had better take the time to take a look, when I went out to take care of the shop a few days ago, I saw that the shopkeeper of Baicaotang seemed to have changed."
Yao frowned, "Isn't Uncle Tian gone?" ”
An Shi nodded: "I specially went in and took a turn, but I didn't see Tian Bo, the current shopkeeper is a young man." ”
Yao Shi saw that Feng Yuheng was confused for a while, so he explained to her: "The Baicaotang in Beijing was a dowry shop given by my mother's family when I married into the Feng family, and you were young at that time, so you didn't care much about these. And ......" Yao shook his head helplessly, "It is said that it is my dowry, but since I married into the Feng family, where is my share in speaking." ”
An Shi continued the following words for her: "What's more, if I'm not mistaken, my sister said before that the Yao family's wedding shop was taken away by the old lady on the day you just passed the door?" ”
"Yes." Yao nodded, "On the day I passed the door, everything was carried to the old lady, and when I returned to my yard the next day, the title deeds of those shops were missing. I went to the old lady and asked, she said that since she married into the Feng Mansion, these would be kept by the public school, and said that the Feng family would not treat me badly. ”
Feng Yuheng smiled, "Mother, you believe it?" ”
"What if I don't believe it?"
"yes!" An Shi answered, "When the daughter-in-law marries into the door, she is the person of the in-law's family." ”
"The profit of the shop, has the Feng family ever given it to his mother?"
Yao shook his head, "I haven't given it, I just said that I have been losing money, and the Feng family has put in a lot of silver." ”
Feng Yuheng thought about An's previous words, and then asked: "I heard that my aunt said that I went out to take care of the shop, but my aunt was her own?" ”
An nodded, "Yes, my mother's family also brought two shops over, but my shop can't be compared with the Yao family, where can the Feng family see it, so I stayed." ”
"Aunt An, is this the system of our Dashun Dynasty?"
An shook his head, "Where is there such a system, not only is there not, Dashun also allows married women to take care of the dowry shop by themselves, and the woman asks to go out to take care of the shop, and the in-laws must not stop it for no reason." ”
"That means that the Feng family is working against the imperial court system?" She did not hesitate to buckle such a hat for the Feng family.
Ann pouted and didn't say anything. After all these years, how could she not know what the Feng family was.
Feng Yuheng comforted Yao: "Don't worry, mother, it's ours, and you have to return it to me sooner or later." ”
An Shi also agreed, "Today, I don't see that the Royal Mansion is like a show, and I really want to support the second lady." I believe that with the Imperial Palace, no one will fight your side of the mind again. Then the words changed, "Yesterday, I wanted to let myself run over and go back and tell me about the situation here." I had prepared some loose pieces of silver, thinking that I would send it to you today, and that no matter how much it was, it would at least be able to meet the emergency. I didn't expect that before I could give it, the king's side took the lead. An Shi said as he took out a small silver bag from his cuff, "I don't have the face to take it out compared to what the king gave." But I thought, all the royal kings gave were silver tickets, and you have to start construction in your courtyard recently, so you have to ask for some broken silver to reward your subordinates, so let's use it first! ”
Feng Yuheng saw that An's was sincere, so he didn't say anything polite to her, and simply reached out and took the small silver bag: "Thank you Aunt An, I just thought I had to find a way to go out of the house to exchange some broken silver, and Aunt An sent it here, it's really timely." ”
Seeing that Feng Yuheng had accepted the silver, An's heart finally let go. She didn't mean to curry favor, this silver was indeed prepared yesterday, but she didn't think that the royal palace would come to give a dowry today, so it seemed that she was deliberately stammering.
"Auntie, rest assured, Ah Heng will treat the third sister well." Feng Yuheng had no intention of promising anything to An Shi, she knew that for An Shi, wanting to live well was what she hoped for the most.
After sending An Shi and Xiangrong away, Yao Shi pulled Feng Yuheng and asked her, "Do you remember the fact that the tonic was changed back then?" ”
Feng Yuheng nodded, "I don't remember much originally, but after a few words with Aunt An, the memory of the hour will be clearer." ”
Yao told her: "Your Aunt An is an understanding person, she didn't mean to stammer when her mother was a mother-in-law, and then when the Yao family encountered an accident, she didn't fall into the ground, but secretly stuffed a handful of broken silver in Zirui's collar before we left." ”
"Good people will be rewarded." She handed the teacup to Yao, "Mother drink some tea, don't think too much." After we move to the next yard in two days, there are still a lot of things that my mother needs to take care of. ”
Yao's family was originally the head of the house, although her temperament is a little weaker, but it is more than enough to take care of a small yard. immediately responded: "Ah Heng, don't worry, you don't have to worry about the complicated things at home." When it's Zirui, it's time for enlightenment. ”
She mentioned this Feng Yuheng before she remembered, yes, Zirui is more than six years old, and he is of school age.
"Ah Heng is really negligent about this matter, but fortunately, my mother remembers it. However, the Feng family's current attitude still needs to be pondered, let's watch it for a few days first, and then find an opportunity to mention it to the house. ”
