Chapter 7: Huh? Is this a bride price?

Don't forget to vote for a small pen, give flowers ah......! Thanks......!

β€”β€”β€”β€” ha, the dividing line has appeared againβ€”β€”β€”β€”

Situ Qing led me out of the lobby, walked along the bluestone paved road, and looked at the left wing, the right wing, the kitchen, the study, and even the thatched house. Situ Qing took me to the back garden.

There is a large lake in the back garden where red carp swim in schools. Situ Qing led me to a pavilion in the middle of the lake, and in the middle of the pavilion was a small stone table with a plate of fruit on it.

"I'll tell you, brother-in-law, in fact, my sister has been observing you for a long time!" Situ Qing's face was full of sincerity, "You don't know the way, my sister has been a female red since she was a child, and she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, although she is not a female champion, but she can also be regarded as a heroine among women, my father once promised her, saying that after she is sixteen years old, as long as she is the son of a family, she can get married, and she will never be blocked, since you are my sister, it is also the fate of God!" ”

I secretly glanced at Situ Hong on the side, she was bowing her head at a loss, fiddling with the silk handkerchief in her hand.

"What's that...... Brother, isn't it a big marriage event for children to play at home, and the younger brother has to go home and discuss it with his parents! Following Situ Qing's words, I also unconsciously brought out the tone of my own times.

"That's what I said, brother-in-law, you go home and discuss it with your in-laws first, I believe your in-laws will not disagree!" Situ Qing's face was full of pride.

I looked at him, then at Situ Hong, and nodded slightly.

When I left Situ Mansion, it was already Shen Shi, and when I passed by the place where the city wall was attached to the list, I saw that the people had already dispersed, but there was still a person standing in front of me with a dusty face as if he had been stepped on by someone a few feet, and I took a closer look and found that it was Sun Qi.

"What's the matter, buddy, are you still standing here?" I haven't changed my tone back yet.

Sun Qi looked me up and down, reached out and touched my forehead, "You don't have anything to do, Bi Ran, is it that you don't have your name on the list?" ”

"Am I that vulnerable?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Then why didn't I see you all afternoon?"

"It's a long story!" I patted him on the shoulder, "Go home, let's talk about it when we go home!" ”

Nothing to say all the way.

After I got home, my father and mother surrounded me as soon as I entered the door, and the look of concern on my face was overflowing, "Don't be sad Ran'er, I didn't do well in the exam this time, and I will continue next time, just take it as if I am familiar with the exam process!" ”

"How do you know about the Dao?" I was surprised.

The two of them focused their eyes on Sun Qi, "Qi'er has come back three times in the afternoon, saying that I don't know where you have been, and I can't find you no matter how I look for it, but we are in a hurry!" ”

I glanced at Sun Qi gratefully: After I marry Situ Hong, I will definitely introduce you to a good girl, and I promise not to treat you badly!

"Father, mother, do you think the child is so fragile? Besides, I'm so young, and I have a chance, so this time it's better to train the army, isn't there a next time? I don't believe I can't pass the exam! Hum......! I comforted them as husband and wife.

"If only you thought so!" The two looked at each other and calmed down slightly.

I'm wondering if I should tell them about that big event, after all, I shouldn't be their real son now, at most it's just using their son's body, and in the future, we will have to call them grandparents when we get children, alas, trouble~!

"What, father, mother, I have something to tell you!"

"What's the matter?"

"I'm ...... this afternoon This afternoon, went to ...... Situ ......! ”

"Situ family?" The two men looked at each other.

"That's it, our big family in Chizhou City!" I put my heart on the side.

"Why did you go to their house? Their house is not a place where we ordinary people can go! My mother looked at me with a strange look.

"I know," I turned my head and didn't dare to look at them, "It was Situ Hong who took me, and she said that she wanted to ...... with me Get married! "I let it go.

"Marriage?" The eyes of the two men looked at me in surprise, and their mouths had become the most standard O-shape.

I nodded sincerely.

The two of them just looked at each other, and they didn't squeak!

I'm starting to get anxious, okay, you two are talking about something, what's the matter with being stunned here? Besides, as the user of your son's body, I will only consult with you, if I leave it alone, I would have already bought a ticket to cook a mature meal after getting on the bus first, the ancients were really ink, and I had to think about such a small thing for a long time.

After a while, the two of them raised their heads to look at me and asked softly, "What do you think of that Miss Situ?" ”

"It's nothing, I'm the same age, and I look like a tomboy!" I'll be honest.

"What about the Situ family?" Their eyes were fixed on me.

"It's very good, the courtyard is very big and magnificent, and they all have what a big family should have!" My tone is rightly deserved.

"And what do you think of our family?"

I looked up and down the walls of the house, and then looked at the courtyard through the window, "It's very good, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant!" ”

"Ran'er, we mean to say, do you think our family is suitable for their Situ family? We ordinary people, it is very good to be able to eat a meal of white noodles a year, but they are Situ's family, they eat rice and white noodles and wear silk and satin, and the door is not right, even if you marry Miss Situ, you will be wronged in their family, after all, we can't afford to climb high! My mother sat next to me and slowly analyzed.

Oh, I thought it was so serious, dare to be affectionate is the old theory that these doors are not the right ones, these are easy to say, modern people don't care about these stinky problems, especially those rich sons and sisters, their lovers only fancy the money in their hands, if it's really about love, don't be afraid, afraid of being afraid of those who are right at the door, two people have to save money to buy a house, unlike rich people, don't have to worry about anything.

I let out a long breath, "Mother, you don't have to worry about this, I have a sense of proportion!" ”

She looked at me with a determined look on her face and stopped talking.

"Ran'er, did you really decide to marry the eldest lady of the Situ family?" Dad looked at me a little uncomfortably and asked.

"It's not that I want to marry her, but she wants to marry me, in Situ Qing's words, she has been paying attention to me for a long time!" I don't know how you educated your son in the first place, the fifteen-year-old young man in the flower season who is so good is stunned that a girl in the family will take a fancy to it.

"What about Master Situ?" Dad still doesn't feel at ease.

"I've seen him!"

"Seen him?" Both of them asked at the same time, "What did he say?" ”

I thought back a little, "He didn't say anything, he just smiled at me!" ”

The two men looked at each other again.

It was already dark outside, and the moon was already in the treetops. I touched my stomach and was cooing, "Mother, I'm hungry!" "I'll still be coquettish properly.

"Okay, let's eat!" As she spoke, she got up and went to cook.

I never thought that the ancients were so efficient in doing things, and just a few days after I went to Situ Mansion, their house sent a bride price, and the woman gave a bride price to the man's family, and even I, a modern person, heard of it for the first time.

The bride price filled the entire yard of our house, and even a few silk cloths were placed on the chicken pen. The mother watched the subordinates of the Situ family move boxes of bride price into the yard, and didn't dare to ask a word, Dad went to the ground again, otherwise he might not know what his expression would be.

After putting down the bride price, he walked to his mother: "Bi woman, this is the bride price that our lord gave you, the lord said, the rules of the marriage cannot be changed, there is no rule in the world that does not mention the marriage, the matchmaker has to ask you to invite, you can invite anyone to do it, as long as you come to propose the marriage, the day is given, and it is best to do the family affairs this month!" ”

My mother didn't react for a long time, "I'll do my family affairs this month?" ”

The man handed over the bride price list, "This is the list of bride price, please take a look!" ”

The mother took the list full of bride price with trembling hands, and then watched the giver leave.

"What's the matter, mother? Are you still satisfied with these bride prices? I stood beside my mother with a smile on my face and asked softly.

My mother turned her head to look at me, and then turned her head to look at a group of neighbors who had long been gathered outside the bamboo fence of my house, and didn't say anything.

Then I don't have anything to say. I helped my mother into the house and brought her a bowl of water. There is no need to look at the things in the yard, I believe that this group of poor neighbors around my house is definitely the kind of master who collects gold as Mencius said.

After a while, Gongfu's father also heard the news and rushed back, I guess it must have been Sun Qi's kid who called it.

"The one in the courtyard is not a gift from the Situ family!" Dad asked as soon as he walked in the door.

My mother's brain was short-circuiting, and I didn't respond, so I hurriedly said, "Yes!" ”

"What else did they say?"

"Said I want to get married this month!"

"This month?" Dad's eyes widened, "It's twenty-eight today!" ”
