Lu Yuan was a little stunned, he didn't expect that he hadn't been dismissed, and he was actually asked to prepare a dowry.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but glance at Tang Ying, seeing that her eyebrows were affectionate, her face was ashamed, and he was even more puzzled, thinking that his words had worked?

Tang Ying also noticed Lu Yuan's eyes looking at him, and began to bow his head a little shyly, and then he was a little angry, and said in his heart: "Why do you still look at it!" ”

Lu Yuan finally withdrew his eyes and only said yes to Tang Wang's family.

Although he didn't expect to marry Tang Ying, now that a lady like Tang Ying is willing to become his wife, he will not refuse.

Tang Wang nodded, and instructed a few big girls beside him: "In the future, you all have to change your words to call Lu Gongzi your uncle, understand?" ”

As the eldest maid beside Tang Wang's wife, Tang Wang's wife, she has always had a very high status in the Tang Mansion, even the young lady of Tang Mansion did not dare to despise them, of course, they can become the big maid beside Tang Wang's family, and they are naturally smart and sophisticated, seeing Tang Wang's words like this, they don't dare to despise Lu Yuan anymore, and they all came over to give Lu Yuanxing a salute to the master and servant, calling Lu Yuan his uncle, and his words began to praise Lu Yuanlai.

But because Lu Yuan has no fame, and now his family is in the middle of the road, so these maids who usually see too many wealthy sons can only praise Lu Yuan's good looks, what looks better than Pan An, Song Yu, etc., in short, their own young lady's vision is right.

But Zhang Heng's face darkened at this time, especially when he heard that those maids and servants in the Tang Mansion began to praise Lu Yuan, he couldn't wait to kill Lu Yuan, in short, he felt very uncomfortable.

Zhang Wang's is the same, she didn't expect that she had been lobbying in front of her sister for so long, and she had been talking in front of Tang Ying for so long, the Tang family still had to marry the Lu family, if it weren't for the fact that her husband's family was not as good as the Tang family, she really wanted to fall out with the Tang family now.

Zhang Wangshi could only ask Tang Wangshi with some grievances: "Sister, why did you agree to Tang Ying like this, how can you rely on her about the words of the matchmaker of your parents' orders." ”

"You don't have to say it anymore, her father and her brother want her to marry the Lu family, abide by the agreement, I am not good to disobey alone, I can only let her make her own decisions for the reason, as long as she is unwilling to marry Lu Yuan, I have a good excuse to break the marriage contract with the Lu family, let Heng'er and the baby marry, but you also saw it, the baby still took a fancy to him after seeing Lu Yuan, this may be the creation! I can't make my daughter unhappy either, no. ”

As soon as Tang Wangshi said this, Zhang Wangshi was not good to say more.

And Lu Yuan was also about to leave here, and was about to say goodbye, when he saw Tang Ying stand up and said, "Brother Lu, please stay." ”

Zhang Heng saw Tang Ying taking the initiative to talk to Lu Yuan, he was very unhappy, and hurriedly got up and stood in front of Tang Ying: "Cousin, how about we go to Taishan tomorrow?" There is a new group of sedan chair drivers in my family, and the sedan chair they carry is excellent, and it must not shake, if you sit to go to Mount Tai, it is excellent......"

Tang Ying only said: "Cousin, please respect yourself, my little sister is now a person with a marriage contract." ”

Tang Ying said and handed a sachet to Lu Yuan: "This is a return gift, the baby embroidered it himself, although it is not very good, but the world brother can keep it as a souvenir." ”

Lu Yuan took it.

It's a matter of affection.

Zhang Heng stood stupidly on the side, his face was hot, as if he had been beaten, so he threw the fan in anger, and then ran out.

"Heng'er!"

Seeing this, Zhang Wang's family chased out, and when he passed by Lu Yuan and Tang Ying, he yelled at Lu Yuan: "You made me lose face for Heng'er, and my Zhang family is not finished with you!" ”

Lu Yuan didn't take this seriously, and only said to Tang Ying and Tang Wang: "Thank you, little sister, aunt, Lu Yuan farewell!" ”

Zhang Wang and Zhang Heng returned home.

Zhang Heng said indignantly: "Mother, I don't accept it, why, Lu Yuan's family has already fallen, and my cousin has even fallen into Xiucai, why does my cousin still marry Lu Yuan." ”

"Heng'er, Heng'er, don't be angry, there is still room for turning around in this matter, he Lu Yuan wants to marry your cousin, I want to see what the Lu family can do, can they afford the dowry, when the time comes, we will first inquire about the day when they will pay the dowry, and then come to him when he buys the dowry The Lu family asks for debts, so that he can't afford the dowry, see how he is hired!"

Zhang Wang comforted.

Zhang Heng felt a little relieved: "Mother is right, the Lu family can't afford to pay a dowry when the time comes, so there is no way to marry a cousin, and the cousin's family will never allow her to marry her daughter without hiring." ”

Over here.

Tang Wenyun was naturally happy when he knew that his sister finally decided to marry Lu Yuan, but he was also a little puzzled, after dark, he came to his sister Tang Ying: "Sister, that Lu Yuan doesn't have a career, and his family is still in the middle of the road, you usually have a worried look because of this, why did you meet Lu Yuan today, and you agreed to marry again?" ”

"Naturally, because of this poem, brother, please see, how dare my sister live up to such a loving and righteous person."

Tang Ying said with a smile, and unfolded the ink treasure that Lu Yuan gave her.

Tang Wenyun couldn't help frowning at first glance and said: "The calligraphy skills are not high, this Lu Yuan, he should practice more calligraphy." ”

But immediately, Tang Wenyun looked at it, and after a long time, he said: "Sure enough, he is a person with deep affection, this Lu Yuan, I usually can't see that he still has such a delicate literary style, although his brother is the head of the case, he can't compare to him." ”

……

After Lu Yuan returned home, he told his mother Lu Kangshi about the Tang family's request for his family to give a dowry as soon as possible.

Kang's was naturally overjoyed when he heard this: "This is really a good thing, I thought that their Tang family has now become an official family, and they may not look down on our old relatives and friends, and they don't expect the Tang family to honor the marriage contract, but I didn't expect that the Tang family took the initiative to ask for the agreement." ”

"Son, this Tang Ying, as a mother grew up, she has always been talented and virtuous, she has been studying since she was a child, it is a good thing that you can match this good fate, in the future, live a good life with her."

After Lu Kangshi said, he couldn't help but ask Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, his face was bitter, and he thought to himself that he would live a good life, the world is in turmoil, and there will be no peaceful place in China, can he live a good life?

And this time.

Lu Kangshi also frowned: "It's just that the preparation of this dowry is a problem, and there are follow-up expenses, his Tang family is a family of eunuchs, a famous family, and Tang Ying is a young lady, and he is definitely not willing to suffer a loss at the wedding, not to mention that we are not as good as them, this gift has to be heavier, but it's a pity that your father is gone now, and the weaving workshop has no revenue, so he can't afford to buy a dowry." ”

"Mother, it's okay, I'll figure out a way for this, my son is now an adult, and it's time to take some responsibility."

Lu Yuan comforted Lu Kang's.

Lu Kangshi nodded and didn't say anything more.

After Lu Yuan accompanied Lu Kang's for a while, he came to the outer ear room and found Uncle Fei, the only housekeeper of the Lu family.

Lu Yuan has never understood why his weaving mill is dilapidated, as far as he knows, the textile industry will be the most prosperous industry in this era, especially after the emergence of the shuttle and Jenny spinning machine, it laid the foundation for the arrival of the first industrial revolution.

Lu Yuan was not disappointed by the dilapidated of his weaving mill, he believed that as long as he made the shuttle or Jenny spinning mechanism, the production efficiency of his weaving workshop would lead the whole world, and advanced productivity represented endless wealth.
