Chapter 107: Overboard
Zhen Kebao's day of marriage is coming, but the new daughter-in-law's maiden family, the Zhu family, temporarily put forward a request, to let Shu Yao's sister and brother go to pick up the kiss as a welcome boy, saying that they want to touch Shu Yao's blessings, in addition, I heard that Shu Yao's sister and brother are a pair of golden boys and jade girls like dragon and phoenix fetuses, and it is also a good sign that they welcomed the new daughter-in-law into the door, isn't it?
The Lin family was so angry, what does this mean, dislike her Ling'er?
Welcoming the child is a custom in the Great Zhou, a man and a woman, on the day of the wedding with the groom to pick up the kiss, generally by the groom's younger brothers and sisters under the age of ten years.
When the boy entered the new daughter-in-law's house, every elder in the house saw them and gave them a red envelope prepared in advance. Different from the new daughter-in-law receiving red envelopes, every time the bride-in-law receives a red envelope, he must immediately open it and say out loud what is inside, or show it to everyone. The more red envelopes the child receives, the more face the new daughter-in-law's family will naturally have, which means that the new daughter-in-law's life will be smoother after arriving at her husband's house.
Because this is really a beautiful difference of silver for nothing, as long as there are younger brothers and sisters of the right age in their house, most people are to let their younger siblings and cousins be welcome children, and those who really don't have will choose cousins or children of relatives and friends.
The Lin family has long planned to let Zhen Keling and his ten-year-old little nephew be the welcome boy, needless to say, his baby daughter is beautiful and cute, although the appearance of the little nephew is not very good, but the chubby is also very blessed, isn't it? Fertilizer and water do not leave outsiders' fields, and the opportunity to take silver for nothing naturally cannot be cheap for outsiders, but the Zhu family is very rich.
Who would have thought that when it was coming, the Zhu family would make such a request.
I have a sister-in-law of the right age but let my cousin be a welcome child, what will others think? Isn't it that Zhen Keling is disliked? Thinking of the several banquets where the guests all raised Shu Yao and belittled Zhen Keling, Lin was so angry that his stomach hurt.
Zhen Kebao didn't care too much about the Zhu family's requirements. This new daughter-in-law, Zhu, was taken by himself and finally asked to marry, and he didn't think that Zhu's little request was excessive. Although the Zhu family is also a merchant, one of Zhu's aunts and cousins is Xie Yuan, who was unable to participate in the spring exam because of a sudden illness, and will be a popular candidate for next year's spring exam.
What's more, because of the matter of the little son of the prefect's family of the four girls of the Xu Mansion, the ghostly cousin Xia Shuyao was confirmed by Master Jingxuan in public to be a blessed person, and the reputation of giving a lotus bracelet is now almost a household name in the Daimyo Mansion City, and women and children are well known. It is understandable that the Zhu family wants to be blessed, who doesn't want to ask for a good fortune on the day of marriage? Especially the bride.
Zhen Dafu obviously thinks the same way. Although those two torturers were very angry, it is undeniable that they are indeed blessed. What good things and nobles let them meet. Wouldn't it be great if they could share some of their blessings with their sons, daughters-in-law, and even future grandchildren? As for silver, if there is a blessing, there will naturally be silver. What's more, now the Zhu family insists on this requirement?
Zhen Dafu's father and son nodded, and it was not the turn of the Lin family to oppose anything.
Zhen Kebao rushed to Yulin in person and discussed with Shujie to pick up Shu Yao's sister and brother in advance, and the boy was going to pick up his relatives early in the morning.
According to the custom of the Great Zhou. There are no special circumstances, and generally will not refuse the invitation to welcome the boy, after all, it is a festive and icing on the cake, and on the surface, Zhen Kebao is still the cousin of Shu Yao's sister and brother. (Although the Shujie brothers and sisters know that Donnie Yen is not the biological daughter of the Zhen family, this is something that cannot be made public.) )
Therefore, no matter how reluctant the Shu Yao sisters and brothers are. Now that Zhen Kebao personally came to invite him, it was still difficult to refuse, otherwise it would be unreasonable to be reasonable.
Shujie thought for a while and said, "It just so happens that Uncle Jin bought a mansion in the Daimyofu City. Let me live when I used to prepare for the exam. We will go over two days in advance, the day you get married, Young Master Zhen, Mother Liu will take Yao'er and Wen'er to Zhen's mansion in the morning, you can rest assured. ”
When Zhen Kebao heard that Shujie and they lived on Fuhua East Street, he was really jealous. Why doesn't he have an Uncle Kim? Well, that golden tongue seems to be very unkind to their Zhen Mansion.
Fuhua East Street is located in the prosperous area of Daimyofu City. The mansions in that area can be said to be the concentration area of the richest families in the Daimyofu Castle, so the security is also the best.
In fact, the second courtyard was bought by Shujie's brothers and sisters, but Wang Xi's Daxin Dental Store claimed to be purchased by Jin Xida. The three of them have spare money, and they are not suitable for other investment transactions, and if they have suitable fields, shops, or particularly good houses, Wang Xi will help pay attention to them.
Zhilu Dao Shujie wants to participate in this year's literary and martial arts, and must live in the Daimyo Mansion City for a period of time, and it happens that the house is urgently sold, and the cost performance is very high, Wang Xi suggested that Shujie buy it, and he can rent it out after the autumn test. The property in Fuhua East Street can be said to be the fastest value-added area in the entire Daimyofu City.
Along with the house, there is also a family of five concierges, who are just responsible for taking care of the house, cooking, and cleaning. In the future, the house will be leased, and the family will take it back to Yulin and put it in the summer house or Zhuangzi.
I have to say that Master Jingxuan's words are still very deterrent, since he knew that Dao Shuyao "has a Buddha fate" and "a blessed fate", Zhen Kebao's attitude towards the three brothers and sisters of the Xia Mansion has become more careful, people in this era worship God and Buddha, in their understanding, "Buddha fate" means that there is a divine protection, so the good fortune lasts. Zhen Kebao pondered, isn't it? If it weren't for the protection of the gods, Shu Yao would have become the "eldest granddaughter" of Murong Mansion who had a marriage contract with a fool. That was a matter that the Murong family and the Zhen family had planned so precisely, and it was said that even the county government had done a good job, but it turned out to be a mess and a fishy one.
The Wenju autumn exam will be a month later, but Shujie also signed up for the martial arts, which is divided into three sessions, with an interval of ten days in between, and the first one after six days.
Now Shu Yao and Shu Wen are just going to be the children who welcome their relatives, and Shujie decides to go to the Daimyo Mansion City on the second day.
This time, they were going to live in the Daimyo Mansion City for almost two months, and the three of them brought Mother Liu, Lan Jin, Shangjin, Orange Jin, two little maids, and three nursing homes. Xiu Tao has never been to the Daimyo Mansion City, and she also went to play.
Shuwen asked for leave from the school, and Shuyao also took leave with the two gentlemen, they both wanted to accompany Shujie to take the exam, and since they were young, they have never left their parents and eldest brother, and now that their parents are gone, they are even more sticky to the eldest brother, and Shujie is not worried that his younger siblings are not in front of him.
The mansion of the Daimyo Mansion Castle was bought with furniture and things, and it was taken care of every day, and as soon as Shujie and the others arrived, they quickly settled down.
Early in the morning of Zhen Kebao's marriage, Liu's mother took Shuyao and Shuwen to Zhen's mansion, and Lan Jin and Shangjin naturally followed. Because she was a boy who welcomed her relatives, Mother Liu wore a festive red dress for Shuyao's sister and brother, embroidered with golden auspicious cloud lines, like a pair of New Year's dolls, which made people happy when they looked at it. Even Zhen Kebao secretly sighed: It is really face-saving to take such a pair of welcoming boys to pick up relatives, no wonder the Zhu family insisted. Well, the only thing that's not so good is that these two "boys" are too tall, especially the books, and they're about to catch up with him.
Lin seemed to see a thorn in his eye. Everyone praised and envied them for having such a pair of beautiful blessed dolls as a welcome child, which must be a good omen, ensuring that the young couple will be smooth and prosperous after getting married. Lin could only smile and nod in thanks, but he really couldn't laugh, and as a result, he turned into a toothache expression.
Shu Yao was secretly amused, she didn't know if Zhen Kebao and the Zhu family were smooth or not, but she remembered that in her previous life, they had many children, and the Zhu family gave birth to three boys and two girls in a row.
She still remembers that the Zhu family is a powerful character, and the Lin family has always wanted to show the majesty of her mother-in-law, but she has never been able to do so, but she has been crushed to death, and she can't tell her bitterness, so she can only brag and boast about self-comfort.
Now Shu Yao is happy to hurry up and welcome the Zhu family into the door, and the Lin family is busy fighting with his daughter-in-law, and he doesn't want to stare at the silver of their three siblings all day long. Although their brother and sister are not afraid of Zhenfu's calculations, but it's annoying, isn't it?
In addition to the Lin family, there is also 7-year-old Zhen Keling, who is gritting his teeth at Shu Yao, and the visual focus of the scenery at this time should be her, not this nasty broom star! A few months ago, my mother told her that when the eldest brother got married, she, the boy who welcomed the family, could receive a lot of silver and beautiful jewelry, so that when she went to the sister-in-law's house, she should have a sweet mouth and a well-behaved smile. In order to collect more good things, she often smiles in the mirror.
Unexpectedly, after reaching the most embarrassing time, the sister-in-law's family actually let this broom star replace her as a welcoming boy.
The more Zhen Keling thought about it, the more angry she became, and when she saw that there was a lotus pond behind her where Shu Yao was standing, she pursed her lips and smiled.
"Mother, mother" Zhen Keling suddenly ran forward, calling her mother, but the person was obviously leaning in the direction of Shu Yao, and there was still Mother Liu and another guest between Lin and Shu Yao.
Shu Yao was so angry and funny in the face of such an obvious and low-level "little trick", and she was silent, and when Zhen Keling rushed in front of her, she "accidentally" stumbled, and opened her hands and fluttered towards her......
With a "plop", the small red figure fell into the lotus pond.
The people who were chatting happily were stunned, and Lin was also stunned, and suddenly came back to his senses before shouting: "Help, come on, save Ling'er!" ”
In fact, the lotus pond in Zhen's house is not deep, it is still very shallow, Zhen Keling's nurse stepped in and hugged her out for the first time, and she only drank a few sips of water, and her little face was stained with some mud. Of course, the red dress was soaked and dirty.
The nurse kneaded her chest and back a few times, and Zhen Keling quickly spit out a few mouthfuls of dirty water with mud, and she didn't care about changing her clothes, so she pointed at Shu Yao and scolded: "Little slut, you dare to push me!" ”
