Chapter 109: Tiger Father Has No Dog Son

"Recognize the wrong person?" Shuwen joked with Shu Yao, "Sister won't see a little fat man as Brother Dun'er again, right?" ”

Last time on Yulin Street, Shu Yao saw a little fat man in front of her and asked Shuwen, "Brother Dun'er is back?" ”

When Shujie and Shuwen brothers looked at it, they both smiled, and their backs looked like Zhong Jiayi two years ago. Shujie gently knocked Shu Yao's forehead: "You have grown up and grown taller, but Chiayi is not long?" It's been two years and it's still so high? ”

Shu Yao was stunned, isn't it? The book has grown a lot taller, Zhong Jiayi was taller than the book before, and it shouldn't be shorter than the book now, right? Immediately laughed, Zhong Jiayi was a cute little chubby dun in her eyes, and this image had become synonymous with him.

At this time, when she heard Shuwen mention that incident again, Shu Yao herself felt funny, yes, it was not the first time that she had recognized the wrong person, and she took it for granted, which was ridiculous.

The five of them were talking and laughing, and suddenly they heard the sound of crackling firecrackers, which was deafening.

Mother Liu motioned to Shu Yao, Shu Wen, and Lan Jin to cover their ears, and looked out the window for a while. It wasn't until the sound of firecrackers stopped that he smiled and said, "It should be coming." "Generally, the new daughter-in-law's family sends people to wait at the street where their mansion is located, and when they see the welcoming procession coming, they will set off firecrackers, on the one hand, it is a customary habit to create a festive atmosphere, and on the other hand, it is also to inform the bride and the people in the house to get ready.

Soon, the carriage stopped, and the voice of the round-faced lady came from outside the car: "The two boys get off the car and accompany the groom to pick up the new daughter-in-law."

The Shu Yao sisters and brothers happily got out of the car and walked behind Zhen Kebao, and the six "welcome brothers" also got off the horse and gathered, they were going to help the groom "pass the test" later, and deal with the "difficulty" of the bride's maiden brothers.

Zhen Kebao saw the bright smiles on the faces of the Shu Yao sisters and brothers, and they looked like a pair of blessing dolls, and he was very happy. These two babies still give him face.

As soon as I entered the gate of the Zhu house, I saw the bride's maiden brothers (cousins, cousins) and sisters and sisters-in-law standing on one side at the second gate, and when they approached, they began to "make trouble", one of them smiled at Zhen Kebao and said: "We don't embarrass you, we will have three questions today, and we will simply let you in after passing the customs." ”

The "Welcome Brothers" are gearing up, and they are also fully prepared.

"The first question, a poem, expresses your heart for our sister." The second master of the Zhu family asked the question first.

This is a "regular question" and must be answered by the groom himself. Zhen Kebao cleared his throat, "It is rumored that the candle is lowered to pink, and the mirror is in front of the stage to make a good spring." You don't need to be covered with makeup, but you have to wait for the painting with your eyebrows. This is the most common "hypnotic poem", expressing the groom's willingness to be a "thrush man", and at the same time urging the bride to hurry up and go downstairs, so as not to miss the auspicious time.

"Pass the level. The second question is arithmetic, both of us are merchants, so we don't learn what couplets those officials and scholars are to, to be practical. My sister's dowry is 9,999 taels, two dowry Zhuangzi are worth 3,600 taels, and one rouge shop. Excluding the monthly profit, the value of the shop alone is 1,600 taels, and all kinds of clothing, jewelry, medicinal materials, supplements, and miscellaneous items are 6,500 taels. 5,000 taels of large furniture. Do the math, how much is my sister's dowry? ”

The answer to the "26,699 taels" book is almost a continuation of the question of the second master of the Zhu family, that is to say, the second master of the Zhu family has just finished reporting the number, and the sum of the books and texts has been added.

Everyone was stunned. Someone in the "Welcome Brothers" was complaining that the young master of the Zhu family said it too quickly, and before he could write it down, someone had just taken the abacus handed over by the Zhu family and was about to dial the beads. At this moment, they all opened their mouths wide, this kid is shouting nonsense, right?

Of course, the second master of the Zhu family, who reported the dowry, knew that this figure was correct, not shouting nonsense, and he looked at the book in disbelief: "You...... You...... Little boy, did you just hear what the people in our house said? ”

Shuwen looked inexplicable: "Didn't you just report it?" Did I add the wrong one? ”

"No, no, that's right, this second level has passed. Little boy, are you the second young master of the Xia family? Welcoming a child? The eyes of the second master of the Zhu family were shining. Shu Yao and Shu Wen's similar appearance and dress made him guess their identities immediately. These two children are twins, and the eight characters are almost the same, Shu Yao is blessed, isn't Shuwen the same? Look, the abacus beads haven't had time to be opened, and this kid has calculated the total number, it's a fairy child! Well, they will be relatives with Xia Zhai in the future.

Their family was still discussing last night, asking their sister to have a good relationship with the three Xia Zhai brothers and sisters in the future, but don't follow Mrs. Zhen and the Lin family to make fools. What do merchants need most? Of course, it's taking advantage of the situation, Xia Zhai looks powerless, but the backer behind it is powerful. And they are deeply blessed, I heard that the two brothers are reading materials, that Xia Shujie participated in the imperial examination this year, and he actually reported both the literary examination and the martial arts.

Zhen Kebao hurriedly replied: "Yes, they are today's welcome boys, my cousin and cousin." ”

In fact, everyone was very curious about how Shuwen could calculate so quickly at such a young age, and they didn't see him have an abacus in his hand. However, there is an auspicious time to welcome relatives, and it is really not good to dwell on this at this time, the Zhu family has this question just to show off the bride's dowry.

The second master of the Zhu family took the lead, and the masters of the Zhu family who were stopped at the second gate at the moment, as long as they were older than Shu Yao Shuwen, all took out the red envelopes that had been prepared earlier.

What's even funnier is that the two mothers-in-law of the Zhu family took two small red baskets that were very delicate and good-looking and handed them to Shangjin and Lan Jin, and Shangjin and the two of them were also clever, and immediately followed their masters with red baskets. Mother Liu pursed her lips meaningfully, this Zhu Mansion is smart.

Generally speaking, the elders of the bride's family have to seal red envelopes for the children, but the brothers and sisters-in-law of the same generation can be given or not, and most of them are not given. And this Zhu family is too generous, right? Not to mention that they are older than the bride and groom, as long as they are older than Shuyao's sisters and brothers, they are all good things. Of course, most of them knew that if they had two boys, they would not have been so lucky.

A few people, such as the eldest nephew of the Lin family in the "Welcome Brothers", are so jealous that their eyes are green, it was originally his younger brother who came to be the welcome boy, and those good things are all from their family, which is really a big loss.

Although Zhen Kebao is also envious and painful, he knows very well that Shu Yao's sister and brother are the "welcome boys" that the Zhu family insists on, and they are not only interested in Shu Yao's good fortune. If Ke Ling and his cousin came today, the treatment would definitely be much worse. Moreover, the quick mental arithmetic of the book just now also made him more and more afraid to underestimate the three cousins and cousins of Xia Zhai.

Another son of the Zhu family announced loudly after giving the red envelope: "The third question, bravely pick the fairy peach." ”

Everyone looked in the direction of the boy's finger, and there was a peach-shaped lantern hanging on the highest branch of a big tree in front of them, and the height was estimated to be as tall as the combined height of the three people, which means that the "welcome brothers" wanted to stack Arhats and put Zhen Kebao on the shelf to "bravely pick fairy peaches".

Zhen Kebao fainted when he saw it, he was afraid of heights.

"Greeting brothers" also cried with sad faces, they are usually some shoulders that can't be picked up and can't be lifted, stacked arhats? May I? Can you take a ladder? They were going to show off the pitiful ink in their stomachs today.

Shuwen glanced at the group of people with disdain, turned to the Zhu family and asked, "Do you have to go up and pick it up by my cousin?" ”

Second Master Zhu thought that the child was going to climb the tree, and said with a smile: "No, as long as it is someone from your Zhen Mansion who comes to greet you." But it's on a branch, so it's dangerous to climb over. ”

Lin Chong, the eldest nephew of the Lin family, hurriedly coaxed: "Children are the best at climbing trees, people are light, the branches are so thick, they won't break, their sisters and brothers are very blessed." "It's a blessing, you deserve to die, it's better to fall half to death, see if anyone still says they have any bullshit blessings?

Zhen Kebao's heart sank, why is this Lin family so brainless and short-sighted? This is in the Zhu family, don't you see that the Zhu family attaches great importance to the Shu Yao sisters and brothers? Besides, today is his wedding, in case Shuwen hurts somewhere, that Xia Shujie won't tear him up?

Zhen Kebao doesn't like this cousin who is half a year older than him and is addicted to wine all day long, and Lin Chong was deceived last time he bought ingredients. But because he refused to be a welcoming boy for his little cousin, his mother insisted that he take Lin Chong as a "welcoming brother", or he would not be able to lose the face of her mother's family.

Zhen Kebao was about to open his mouth to stop Shuwen, only to see Shuwen "snort" contemptuously at Lin Chong, the red figure flew up, took off the lantern on the branch, and gently fell in front of Zhen Kebao: "Here you go." ”

…… There was silence, and for a while, crackling applause sounded on the Zhu family's side, and then the Zhen Mansion's welcoming team also applauded......

Lin Chong's face turned white, purple, and purple......

The second master of the Zhu family came to his senses: "It's really a tiger father without a dog!" I almost forgot that your father is the first head catcher in Yulin, and your eldest brother has also practiced martial arts since he was a child, how can you not know martial arts? It's so beautiful, pass the third level! "Their Zhu family must think of making friends with the three brothers and sisters of the Xia Zhai, the younger one has this skill, and the big one is worth looking forward to this martial arts! Strength plus blessing, as well as backers, it is a matter of time before the summer house starts!

Zhen Kebao was shocked, thinking of the plan they wanted to harm Shujie before, but fortunately they couldn't implement it, otherwise...... Not to mention whether it can be done is still a question, even if it is a fluke, Shuwen is not so easy to handle, and it will even be more difficult to deal with than Shujie, because he has no scruples of Shujie, and it is possible to beat them half to death when he gets angry. How powerful was that uncle's martial arts during his lifetime?

Zhen Kebao took a deep breath and calmed down, no matter what, Shuwen helped him solve a problem at this time, otherwise he really didn't know how to take off the lantern?
