Chapter 367: The dowry cannot be moved
Cai Er Cai Er Niangzi looked at her daughter in surprise.
I don't have much money at home, and if I have a few taels of silver, so many gold bracelets, what to fight?
Cai Er's mouth was stupid, and he couldn't speak for a while. Cai Er Niangzi asked for a long time: "Zhu'er, you promised your second sister, your aunt, third aunt, and second sister-in-law, how can we have money without a dowry?" ”
She didn't have much concept of silver, and five taels was already a lot of money. In addition to the gold, the smallest amount of Lin Zhu said today is also twenty taels. She herself said that Ming'er dowry came, and she thought that Jin Xiaoguang had already told her the amount of the dowry, so she was so arrogant. Now he even said no, don't you need to chop your fingers? It's not worth it if you chop your fingers.
Caier squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, his daughter was trying to embarrass him. He didn't dare to think about what his face would be if the eldest sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, two nieces and daughters-in-law, and Lin Duo, who was still to be married, knew that Lin Zhu was just talking and playing. Maybe they will take all their anger out on their mothers.
But the daughter said that she couldn't use the dowry.
My father and mother are really honest, and they are worried about being like this when they don't need a dowry. If you don't need a dowry, you can't use something else. , it seems that her father and mother still don't trust her enough.
Busy said: "Daddy, my daughter entered the Proton Mansion just to be a concubine, and I can't say whether it will be good or bad in the future." I heard that rich people say that they will turn their faces, and if they turn their faces in the future, we can also return the dowry to them. But don't worry, what my daughter promised will definitely be done, I have a few gold ingots, which are rewarded by the carefree son, and when I came back, I happened to meet Young Master Jinxi, and asked him to take it. My daughter will pick it up later. ”
The two of them glanced at each other, and what their daughter said seemed to be right. They are not optimistic about Lin Zhu's entry into the Proton Mansion as a concubine. So it's better not to touch what people give.
But this hasn't entered the door yet, so I wonder if there will be any problems in the future.
But seeing that Lin Zhu was very serious, he didn't ask much, these two people have always loved their daughter, so they just did what she said.
It's just that I feel faintly uneasy in my heart.
Lin Zhu saw that his father and mother acquiesced, and said: "I'll go to the vegetable garden to have a look, I haven't entered the vegetable garden for so many days, and I miss me." ”
He lifted the hem of his skirt and went into the vegetable patch. Butterfly-like is very beautiful.
Cai Er Niangzi watched her go a little farther. Whispered to Cai Er: "The master." Do you think your daughter is reliable? I feel a little wrong for my wife. The dowry was not moved, and the carefree son was rewarded and handed over to Master Baoxi for safekeeping. Do you think my daughter is hiding something from us? ”
Honestly, she also thought of something.
Caiji squinted his eyes and watched Lin Zhu enter the vegetable field, squatting down to look at the tomato seedlings.
said: "I also think something is wrong, my daughter has never talked about anything with Jin Gongzi before." Why did you go to Dingyuan and come back, that's it? But she doesn't say it, and we don't want to ask. ”
The two secretly discussed for a while. I think my daughter is usually very assertive. She can do whatever she wants.
Truth be told, they don't want any dowry either. As long as my daughter thinks it's good. The daughter didn't say anything, and they didn't ask.
The two said they were going to do their own things.
Lin Zhu cautiously squatted in front of the tomato seedlings and looked at it for a while, then picked one of the smallest, reddest and most beautiful, wiped it and put it in his mouth to eat. The taste is surprisingly good. The feeling of wanting to vomit from time to time was also suppressed when I ate it.
This second year's tomatoes are a little better off from last year, with a little less sourness.
It's a little sweeter. It's a lot like the all-natural taste of the previous life when I was a kid with no additives.
This is her slightly sweeter seeds and a little more sour, and she didn't expect it to have an effect when she came to artificial pollination.
After tasting it carefully, she looked at it very carefully, and found that the fruit was a little bigger and a little rounder than last year, last year's fruit was oval, not as big as an egg, and this year it became round and the size of a fist. , the more juicy it tastes better.
No wonder the old lady will give it to Jin Xiaoguang as a gift.
Now that autumn has begun, the tomato fruit has begun to decrease. But this year is a little larger than last year, and there are a few more trees, if they are used as fruits at Jin Xiaoguang's banquet, will it also be a sales opportunity?
She counted them one by one, and there were twenty or thirty of them who could hold on to the day of entering the talisman, so it shouldn't be enough. But cut it and sprinkle some sugar as a dish, maybe enough for ten tables. I don't know how many tables Jin Xiaoguang is going to set.
After counting the tomatoes, he moved to the cucumber field again. This dark green, swarthy-looking strip cucumber is ripe, and each one is a foot long, crunchy and tender hanging on the vine, and it is very greedy to watch.
Lin Zhu picks the smallest one and puts it in his mouth, which is more delicious than fruit.
If you put it in the water from a well that has just been dug up, it will feel like it has been chilled.
And the round eggplant is round and full, purple and black in color, and it is a joy to look at.
Walk through the small cabbage field, the small rape field, the carrot field, the lettuce and celery field, and a small garlic field, leek field, coriander and spinach field.
There are also ripe pears and melons, edamame, and even others.
I saw that the garlic with a large area was growing vigorously, and the garlic sprouts were tall and verdant, with lovely pale green buds on the head. There are a few butterflies fluttering. Even the garlic sprouts are wrapped in a vigorous flower film, and butterflies are also invited. 、
Garlic! Isn't this an expensive dish from a previous life?
After coming here for so many years, I have seen all kinds of garlic every year, multi-cloved single-cloves, and the spicy and hard-to-swallow red garlic being dug out of the soil, why did I not expect that the stem that proves that they are about to mature is garlic sprouts.
Fortunately, now is the time for the garlic sprouts to be tender.
Finding this, she got up and ran to Leek.
The leeks have been stubble by stubble, and I don't know how much stubble they have cut. Now is the time when it is at its most luxuriant, and the leaves of the leeks are wide and long, just in time for pickling. Some of the old ones who can't take care of them have grown leeks.
The square leek, which is many times smaller than the garlic sprout, also stares at the small white buds, indicating that the leeks are old and can no longer be eaten.
There is a way that the dog stinks to death in June. Luckily, there are leeks from this stinky dead dog. Otherwise, wouldn't the dish of leeks be drowned?
She hurriedly walked out of the vegetable garden, and regardless of whether it was afternoon, she went straight to Xiezhuang Pit and entered Baozhen's yard.
Bao Xi is enjoying the shade under the tall tree. Seeing that she hurriedly thought something big had happened, she stepped forward and asked, "Zhu'er, what's wrong?" Did something happen? ”
In the past few days, although they have been on the same road with Lin Zhu, there has not been much communication.
Lin Zhu said: "Jin Xiaoguang said that in order to hide people's eyes, he would first admit me into the house, and the date would be set on the 28th. At that time, there will be Sima Liangchen and many bureaucrats. Just now I promised to give the second sister a gold bracelet and a reward for silver, but I didn't want to use those dowry gifts. So I wanted to get some gold ingots. ”
Bao Zhen naturally knew that Jin Xiaoguang wanted the child to be born, and the first step must be to enter the mansion. And according to his informant. The crown prince sent people to guard in front of the Proton Mansion every day. He even filmed an undercover agent near Tianmen Station.
It seems that Sima Liangchen also began to suspect Yan Mansion.
He said, "Zhu'er, the gold bracelet is a small meaning. It's just hard for you. ”
He still doesn't want to be a little cousin, and the dignified former lord of the court gave Jin Xiaoguang a concubine.
Lin Zhu said: "Brother Jiu, it's not difficult. It's just acting. Wait for you to succeed in your big things. I will go away with you and my brother. Walk far away with my children. ”
Bao Zhen smiled noncommittally and said, "Zhu'er." We're definitely going to go. It's just that it's inconvenient for Brother Jiu to show up too much these days. ”
This one is natural.
Bao Zhen Bao Xi belongs to the kind of master that people can't forget at a glance. If Sima Liangchen saw it, he would definitely think of a female assassin.
She hurriedly said: "No, no, no, it's just a concubine of other people, and it is said that she was only carried in through the side door." I don't need that many people to help. It's just that Brother Jiu, I'll take some money. These days, I would like to please the neighbors. ”
Even if it's to be a concubine. It's acting, and it has to be realistic. This is what Jin Xiaoguang said.
After saying that, she went to Bao Zhen's former bedroom, wanting to open the dark room and go to order gold ingots.
I heard Baoxi say: "Zhu'er, since it's fake, let's keep it simple." Your dowry will be kept until you actually get married. Brother Jiu has some gold and silver here, you can take it first. ”
After speaking, he shouted Qu Bo, or after a while, he brought out a plate of gold ingots, which was full of twenty or thirty.
There are so many, there must be more than five hundred taels, this is all gold.
Lin Zhu's eyes were straight, and he said, "Brother Jiu, this is too much, I'll just take ten, and keep the rest for us to use later."
Bao Xi said: "Zhu'er, these are all for you." If you can't keep it for your parents, we'll have only gold, silver and jewelry left now. ”
Lin Zhu pursed his lips and smiled.
How proud you are, you must know that gold, silver and jewelry can not be exchanged for many people's names.
She reached for the plate. almost missed, but fortunately, Qu Bo didn't really let go.
Good boy, the gold is really heavy. Also, how can this ingot of gold be about half a catty, so much, how can it add up to twenty or thirty catties.
It's really heavy.
Qu Bo smiled and said, "It's very heavy, the old body will help you send it over." ”
Twenty or thirty pounds can still be moved, but it was a little light just now.
Lin Zhu grinned and said, "Uncle Qu, I'm not so delicate, just take ten for me, wrap it up, and I'll go back with it." ”
After speaking, he watched Qu Bo enter the house and said to Bao Xi: "Brother Jiu, when do you say we will go to see Miss Mingzhu, and I don't know if my uncle saved food for her to find my mother's servant?" “
Baoxi said: "Zhu'er, when your business is done in a few days, we will go now, and you and I don't have to worry about the old mother's affairs, the seventh brother has his own arrangements." By the way, Zhu'er, should we find you a maid? lest you enter the house alone and have no one to help you. ”
Find a maid for her, Jin Xiaoguang doesn't see through it at a glance.
It's not as good as her own.
Say, "No." I've been used to being alone since I was a child, but I'm not used to being served. Don't worry, Jin Xiaoguang won't do anything to me. Besides, I think the simpler the better. ”
That's right.
Bao Xi watched Qu Bo hand over the wrapped gold ingot to Lin Zhu, and said, "Qu Bo, you go and watch Zhu'er go back, you can also keep an eye on it these days." ,”
Qu Bo agreed.
Lin Zhu hurriedly said: "No, no, that Jin Xiaoguang has already sent two nasty ghost hairy children to guard, and now he may be waiting outside the door, he really hates it." ”
When I went out, I saw two nasty ghosts guarding the door.
She glanced at them angrily and said, "What are you two doing with me?" Yes man! ”
Fang Yuan squeezed his eyes at Fang Cun.
Fang Cun stepped forward and said, "Miss Zhu'er, oh no, it's a little lady." It's not that our brothers and sons have to follow the little lady, it's the prince who explained that if there is a mistake, our brothers and sons have to go to see each other, think about it, each of our brothers has a head. ”
Little poor mouth.
Lin Zhu walked quickly, and Fang Yuan followed behind him and continued to squeeze his eyebrows.
Walking through the courtyard wall of the vegetable garden, Lin Zhu suddenly stopped and said, "Since you two are not following me, who will help me buy a few catties of pork and a few catties of rice." ”
Finally there is an errand.
Before Fang Yuan could speak, Fang Cun had already run far away. , the anxious Lin Zhu shouted behind him: "I haven't brought any money yet." Take the silver. ”
Fang Yuan chuckled: "Little lady." He thinks about how to spend money all day long, just give him a chance. ”
It's strange that there are still people who have money and no place to spend it.
She stared at Fang Yuan coldly and said, "Do you have a lot of money?" It just so happens that there are a lot of people in Tianmen Town who don't have money to eat, so you can buy some food with some money and share it. There are still many people who have no clothes to wear, so let them buy some cloth and divide them with some money. Also, I heard that there was a disaster in Yumen Town, so you can donate a few million taels or tens of millions of taels for disaster relief. ”
Fang Yuan's smiling face turned into a bitter face, and finally it was a little distorted.
Without waiting for Lin Zhu to finish speaking, he walked a few steps quickly and said, "Little lady, the villain has gone to the vegetable garden first, and the pigsty has not been cleaned yet." ”
Then he slipped into the vegetable garden.
Lin Zhu frowned disdainfully: The duck died and became a goose, and it couldn't live without that mouth.
Cai Er and his wife looked at Huang Chengcheng's gold ingot, and their eyes were straight. 、
This was the first time the two of them had seen so much gold at such an age.
The second bite of the dish was eaten, and he said, "Also, don't say it, our worry-free son is still atmospheric." That's a lot of gold. , Zhu'er Niang, let's kowtow to the carefree son. ”
Kowtow what?
It wasn't given by the carefree boy at all, and no one saw it.
Before Lin Shu could stop it, the two of them had already knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times. , the knocking trees all feel pain.
She couldn't bear to bare her teeth, stretched out her hand to pull up the second lady and said, "Mother, the gold is here, don't move any of the bride gifts tomorrow, and don't let others see them." My daughter thought about it and thought that we didn't have any dowry, so she carried the dowry over and took it as a dowry. The Sanssouci Son's reward is also quite a lot. There is still a lot left after use, and it is enough for you two elders to live. ”
"Enough is enough, Zhu'er, you call the shots in this matter."
Although Caiji didn't know what Lin Zhu meant, he also felt something.
There will definitely be so much gold left, even if there is no daughter left, she must have a reason not to use the dowry.
Cai Erniang's eyes were red and she lowered her head.
Although it is a woman's long hair and short knowledge, her heart is very thin. The daughter is not a calculating person, she does not use Jin Xiaoguang's dowry, but chooses to use the bounty of the carefree son. It shows that she is more carefree, and the son is her own person.
What's going on with her and Jin Shizi? (To be continued.) )
