Chapter 968: Blessings and Misfortunes
Ningguofu back street, Xue family's house. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Aunt Xue was amiable, smiling and talking kindly with the women who were wearing beads and hairpins.
In the words, most of them are interesting stories about Xue Pan's childhood, as well as filial piety and sensibility......
The woman on the other side was talking about how her girl's etiquette and female celebrity were outstanding.
There is also a mother-in-law who is a matchmaker next to her, praising the dignity of the Xue family for a while, and then praising the style of the He family for a while.
In short, the two families of Xue He are the right match, and they are extremely compatible.
Xue Pan and the girl of the He family are a pair made in heaven, the golden boy and the jade girl, which is the marriage of heaven.
If it was a side matter, with Aunt Xue's shrewdness, it would be difficult to be fooled.
The Xue family has maintained it all these years thanks to her hard work.
But everyone has a life, which is a blind spot that can't be seen clearly.
Xue Pan is Aunt Xue's life.
Although she often scolds him for not being angry, her own children, no matter how much they beat and scold, still think that most of them are good.
In her heart, Xue Pan may be a little worse than Jia Huan, but she is better than most people in the world......
It's a pity that there are few people other than her who can discern people.
Now that outsiders have finally seen this, how can Aunt Xue be unhappy?
Even Xue Baochai's words were strange, how could the He family look at her brother well......
But here in Aunt Xue, the He family fell in love with Xue Pan, because they had eyesight and fell in love with a treasure!
In terms of family background, both families are from imperial merchants, but the Xue family is the in-laws of the first-rate powerful Jia family in the capital, and the relationship between the two families is very good.
In terms of family background, let alone the Xue family, there are millions of huge rich. Unlike some large families next to them, a family property is waiting to be shared, and the Xue family is the only one in Xue Pan.
Therefore, Aunt Xue did not suspect anything about this matter.
One party deliberately complimented, the other party was happy to be used, and the atmosphere of the conversation was getting better and better, and there was a bit of a taste of hating each other.
Aunt Xue and Mrs. He almost all became handkerchiefs, and the sisters were ...... Old sister Tao.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost warm, the matchmaker said with a smile on his face: "Since the two wives are extremely satisfied, and the two are so suitable, why don't you sign the wedding book today?" ”
Aunt Xue was stunned when she heard this, but before she could wonder, she heard the wife of the He family laugh and said, "It's too anxious, isn't it?" Aunt Xue also nodded.
If you get married, you are getting engaged.
How can you be so sloppy?
The engagement is to ask the relatives of the two families to sit together, ask the iceman to explain the situation on both sides, discuss the financial and dowry, and write the dowry list.
A series of old rules, these are all etiquette, how can it be messed up?
The matchmaker said: "If it is an ordinary marriage, it is natural to follow the old way, but now this is a marriage determined by heaven." Besides, the two houses are not ordinary small families, poor families, and they also account for dowries and dowries......"
These words made Aunt Xue nod again.
She is such a son, how can she be stingy in such a thing?
As for the He family, she doesn't know much about it, but since she is also an imperial businessman, and she has been in the Internal Affairs Mansion for so many years, she wants to come to the family, no matter how weak she is, she will not be weak.
Sure enough, I heard the Mrs. He smile and said, "This is also reasonable...... My girl is very favored at home, and a few years ago, the relatives in the family had prepared a dowry early.
Now in the house that is a little wider, everyone's young lady is out of the cabinet, and it is only a dowry of thirty-two lifts.
My family doesn't mention anything else, but the old lady is ready to carry 12 lifts, plus other relatives, there are already 37 or 8 lifts.
Our lord said that although there is a brother in the family, he is not angry, and he loves this smart sister of Bingxue alone, and he must not wronged her.
Just do it according to the sixty-four lift, you can't fool around, it has to be a good thing.
In addition, a 2,000-acre Zhuangzi outside the city, two facades on the street of Zhuque Street in the city, and a three-entry house in Jukangfang......"
"Shhh
Rao is the Xue family has a huge amount of wealth, and she didn't expect that the He family would make such a big deal.
Not to mention the dowry of sixty-four lifts, but only to say that the Zhuangzi, the two facades on the street of Zhuque Street and the three-entry house in Jukangfang, the sum of these three is the output of tens of thousands of taels of silver.
The He family has become rich to this point?
You must know that this is completely different from the Xue family's gift of one million taels of silver to Jia Huan.
Compared to what Jia Huan brought to the Xue family, the million taels of silver were really nothing.
But Xue Pan didn't have the ability to do it, so that the He family could also earn a lot of wealth......
However, since the other party is so powerful, for the sake of her only son, Aunt Xue is also ready to make a blood capital to regain some face at the dowry.
She pondered for a while and said, "In this way, the dowry of the Xue family is also ......."
"Mrs. Slow!"
However, before Aunt Xue showed her handicap, she was intercepted by Mrs. He, and Aunt Xue was stunned, and saw Mrs. He and said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, madam, this dowry and dowry are two different things...... Before my lord went out, he told him that although the house is rich, the brother in our family is the brother in the house, not rich.
Therefore, I hope that the dowry will only come according to the general one. ”
"This ......"
Aunt Xue was suppressed again.
She naturally knew that the dowry and the dowry were two different things.
To put it bluntly, the dowry is the money to buy someone's daughter, even if the two of them can't get over in the future, this dowry will not be returned......
But the dowry is different, although it is accompanied to the door, it is the woman's private property.
If the daughter has a good relationship, or the husband and wife are emotionally discordant and want to reconcile, then the woman can completely take back the dowry.
Moreover, the dowry will not be distributed to others in the future, but only to the woman's own children.
Even if there is no son, only a daughter, in the future, when the daughter marries, she can be sent out with all of them, and it has nothing to do with the husband's family.
When Jia Min's aunt and grandmother Jia Min got married, how much dowry did they give away, and after Jia Min and Lin Ruhai passed away, this dowry returned to the hands of the Jia family, and in the future, it will be regarded as Lin Daiyu's makeup.
Even if the Lin family is still there, they can't move this thought.
Because the Jia family has a dowry list in their hands, it is impossible to lack one.
Mrs. He said this at the moment, and it was inevitable that she would feel a little unlucky.
But they added later, "I only fell in love with the brother in the house."
This sentence polished the trace of mustard that had not yet been born in Aunt Xue's heart, leaving only a heart full of satisfaction and joy.
What a nice guy!
Although the ownership of the dowry only belongs to the daughter-in-law, the income of the dowry is usually taken out by the daughter-in-law to subsidize the family.
If a daughter-in-law wants to gain a foothold in her in-law's family, the weight of her voice is usually proportional to the amount of dowry and the contribution she makes to the family.
Basically, it counts as rotten meat in the pan.
The Xue family naturally doesn't care about such a little bit of interest, but what is important is the dignity and kindness given by others!
Aunt Xue looked at Mrs. He at this moment, and her eyes were full of happiness and closeness.
But......
Aunt Xue hesitated again: "The six rites of marriage are the number of rites, but they are not missing." There are many relatives in the family, if you don't even squeak at the betrothed, it's really not like ......"
"Mrs. is laughing!"
The matchmaker smiled: "The six rites are naturally the same...... I made this proposal, but because I saw that this marriage was really a good match, so I couldn't help but persuade it. It can be regarded as adding a little more joy to this marriage.
signed the marriage letter first and became in-laws.
After that, it became more and more logical.
The two of you are discussing for yourself how to do it with dignity and how to come!
Isn't it even more blessed to be able to tell a good story? ”
When Aunt Xue heard this, she was immediately moved, nodded slowly, and said, "That's it, it's okay......"
As soon as these words came out, the smiles on the faces of the matchmaker and Mrs. He became brighter.
The matchmaker was already very good at talking, and a series of good words were thrown out as if they didn't want money, which made Aunt Xue more and more satisfied.
And just when the two parties were about to sign the marriage certificate prepared by the matchmaker, a greeting suddenly came from the courtyard: "Grandma is back!" ”
In this era, when the daughter's family goes out of the cabinet and then returns to her parents' house, it is to take her aunt and grandmother. The identity of the door.
Usually, when there are no outsiders, the Xue family will also call Xue Baochai a girl.
But when there are outsiders, you must observe the proper etiquette.
Hearing the words of the maid outside the house, Aunt Xue's face was even more happy, and she said to Mrs. He opposite: "It's our girl who is back!" ”
The Mrs. He smiled when she heard this, wrote the name of the head of the He family on the marriage book, and said with a smile: "Mrs. In-laws, we will be a family in the future." I also had a good chance to meet the girl in the house, and I have long heard that the girl in the house is the most favored by Ning Hou, and she must be a fairy-like character. ”
When Aunt Xue heard this, she nodded with a smile and said, "Mrs. is an elder and should be seen." ”
As he spoke, he also took up a pen and signed.
As long as you sign this marriage letter, the two families will be the real in-laws.
It is of legal significance.
Aunt Xue also wanted to surprise Xue Baochai and let her see how popular her brother was outside, and she was going to put pen to paper.
But I heard a blocking voice at the door curtain: "Slow! ”
Aunt Xue's hand shook, and a drop of ink on the pen fell, staining the deed.
Seeing this bad omen, Aunt Xue was not happy in her heart, and when she saw the wife of the He family whose face froze on the other side, she thought that the other party also thought it was unlucky, and looked back at Xue Baochai who entered the house, and said solemnly: "They are all the people who are in charge of the family, how can they become more and more rude?" ”
In Aunt Xue's heart, in the end, Xue Pan has to be one point heavier.
As for the wife she said in her mouth, there are some reasons......
The relationship between Jia Huan and Ying Xing'er was personally determined by Emperor Jinkou Yuyan.
Although for the sake of royal decency, the wedding cannot be organized in a big way.
But the two are together, but there is no problem.
It's just that when the two are together, Ying Xing'er's identity is still the noble princess of Daqin, not the eldest lady of Ningguo.
And so far, Jia Huanming has only accepted Xue Baochai on his face.
Therefore, although Aunt Xue's words are excessive, they also make sense.
After all, she wasn't talking about the wife, but the lady.
Ningguofu is an official family, and the eldest woman must be called a wife.
As for Madame, it's much more casual.
When Xue Baochai heard this, he hurriedly said his annoyance, filial piety is the avenue of this era, no matter what reason the children have, when the elders see the responsibility, they have no part to talk back.
After seeing Aunt Xue's face soften, she smiled and said, "Mom, how can you be so anxious?" Even if he was busy saying goodbye to his brother, he didn't sign a marriage letter the first time they met.
The six ceremonies are not over, how to sign this marriage book?
Isn't it a mouthpiece to spread out?
It's okay for my brother to be a man, but it's not good for my future sister-in-law, what do you say? ”
Aunt Xue chuckled when she heard this, and said the previous matchmaker's remarks, and was a little embarrassed to tell the He family's dowry, focusing on the fact that the He family is just for people......
When Xue Baochai heard this, he became more and more annoyed in his heart, and even his smile faded a lot, and said, "Mom, you don't know, after our master heard about this just now, he said a strange thing. ”
"What strange thing did Brother Huan say?"
Hearing that it was Jia Huan who said it, Aunt Xue became interested and asked.
The face of Mrs. He on the other side gradually became gloomy.
How could she not see that Xue Baochai already knew the details, and she also took out Jia Huan's name to suppress people......
There is a lot of hatred in my heart, only one step away, but I can only be helpless......
If it was just a Xue family who had lost the head of the family, the He family would not be afraid.
However, there was still a Jia family standing behind the Xue family, but they didn't even have the courage to speak loudly.
It's not a family at all......
With a sigh in his heart, he heard Xue Baochai say with a pale face: "Our lord said that the national funeral is over, and the king of the nine counties in charge of the internal affairs government will be sent to the Western Regions to reward the three armies." But I don't know what this prince thinks, and he actually gave away the money and property of the Internal Affairs Office everywhere, which made His Majesty very angry. Even with it, it was also angry at the heads of many officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs......"
Although Xue Baochai didn't say anything about the scheming of the He family, when it came to this, if Aunt Xue still couldn't react, then she would have been a family for so many years.
In the past two years, she has gradually begun to pay attention to the outside world, especially the movements in the palace, how can she not know the heart of the person in the Daming Palace?
Plus those messy and bad things in the heavenly family......
The one in the Daming Palace, I'm afraid that he is going to make a big purge of the Internal Affairs Office.
At this time, the He family came in a hurry to sign the marriage letter......
His heart can be punished!
What's even more annoying is that the dowry things they talk about may not be their own.
If these things are from the Ministry of Internal Affairs......
This is highly likely.
The king of the nine counties has been unscrupulous for a long time, and if he really wants to give them some property, the He family will not dare not accept it.
They didn't dare to fall into their hands, so they gave it to the Xue family......
Thinking of this, Aunt Xue was really shocked and angry, and the He family and the Xue family were also world friends.
Although she had never met with the He family before, the head of the Xue family had a good relationship with the He family.
But I didn't expect that this family would be so vicious, wanting to frame and implicate the Xue family!
At this point, this family affair with an impure purpose will naturally be abandoned.
Aunt Xue was furious and fell ill in bed.
She is not angry that the wife of the He family deceived her, she is afraid, and she is afraid that others will plot against her son.
After being exposed by Xue Baochai, the woman of the He family simply took the matchmaker without saying a word, and left in such a gloomy manner.
Perhaps, I went to another house to think of an idea.
Just looking at her disgraced face, Xue Baochai guessed that his family probably knew that he couldn't pass this hurdle.
Looking at Aunt Xue who was sulking with her eyes closed on the kang, and then at Xue Pan who was sitting on the chair and was annoyed, Xue Baochai persuaded: "Mom, brother, don't be angry." Brother Huan said that he was angry with a group of people who were bound to lose, and he didn't promote them. The matter of the Internal Affairs Office also happened in the past two days, and Brother Huan only heard about it after entering the palace today. ”
Aunt Xue sighed when she heard this, and said, "People are unpredictable, the He family is really bad." ”
Xue Pan persuaded weakly: "Mom, you don't have to be angry, the He family is the disciple of the King of Nine Counties, and this time, eighty percent of them will be raided." If you hate it, you will buy it back and be angry with you. ”
When Aunt Xue heard this, she opened her eyes and looked at Xue Pan, she was very distressed, and said, "What do I want that bad heart person to do?" I just pity you......"
When Xue Pan heard this, he was like a fried rooster, jumped high, and shouted: "Mom, what are you calling this?" What pity do I have? It's not that I'm in a hurry to marry his daughter, it's his family's shameless prisoner, and I'm in a hurry to marry his daughter to me! Am I pathetic? ”
Aunt Xue hurriedly coaxed: "Yes, yes, it is his family who has fallen in love with you, and it has nothing to do with you." I'm just looking forward to marrying you a good relative as soon as possible, and you will be born in peace. ”
When Xue Pan heard this, he instantly became a defeated rooster, sat down on the chair again, and said weakly: "Mom, don't worry about this, I'm not in a hurry."
There are few brothers like each other in this world, and I don't know what to do with such wives.
I'd like to play for a few more years......"
After all, he thought it was boring, he thought that the He family was discerning and saw his goodness, so he rushed to marry his daughter.
Who knows, that group of kings and bastards actually played such a show......
The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and after saying goodbye to Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai, Xue Pan turned around and left.
The country is mourning, and he wants to find a place to have a good time for a few days......
Looking at her son's "lonely" back, Aunt Xue couldn't help but shed tears, and said to Xue Baochai: "You should also think about your brother and find a decent family for him." ”
When Xue Baochai heard this, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said, "I told my mother a while ago that the girl from the Xing family is excellent, and I prefer you ......."
Aunt Xue shook her head and said, "She has such a background and such parents, how can this family matter be done?" ”
Xue Baochai was helpless when he heard this, and said, "Then I'll take a look." Mom, the princess of the Zhen family is coming to the house today, and Brother Huan'er is going to hold a banquet in the evening, please go with me. ”
When Aunt Xue heard this, she said, "Then you go and get busy preparing first, and I'll go over by myself in a while." ”
Xue Baochai said with a smile: "It's hard work for the three girls and Yun'er. ”
When Aunt Xue heard this, she was a little unhappy, and said: "Yun Yatou has clearly not passed the door yet, these things, you should handle these things, it is ......" But without waiting for Xue Baochai's persuasion, she herself understood, and said with a smile: "It's really embarrassing for Brother Huan'er, the family is so thoughtful, one person is in charge of a mess, and no one is involved with anyone, it's okay."
I just don't know, where is your sister Qin now?
You are really, if Brother Huan'er really has a mind for her, how can you stop it?
sent her out in a good manner, do you think their old lady can't see the fame?
And even if it's not for Brother Huan, she is annoyed for Baoyu.
If you want me to say, it is not a bad thing to give it directly to Baoyu.
I can see that Brother Huan is a loving person, and he will not treat him lightly as a half-brother.
The houses next to Xifu are very good, but now the largest one is under Baoyu's name.
It is better for the piano girl to follow him than to dangle outside. ”
can't blame Aunt Xue for being kind and not taking care of the Xue family's niece, it's just that compared with Xue Baoqin's happiness, she values Xue Baochai's situation in the Jia family more.
Because of Xue Baoqin's departure, Jia's mother has given Xue Baochai a lot of looks recently.
Although there was no verbal beating, there was only that faint look, which anyone could see.
Even for her, Aunt Xue felt that it was not as good as before.
If it weren't for Jia Huan's face, Jia's mother might not be able to see their Xue family's mother and daughter.
Thinking about it, although there have been bumps and bumps along the way, the status of the Jia family is becoming more and more prosperous.
This is still the situation that the concubine in the palace did not give birth, and when the year comes, if the lady in the palace gives birth to a prince......
Then, the status of the Jia family will go to the next level.
In this case, Jia Mu no longer needs to hide her joy and anger.
Fortunately, Jia Huan is now married to Xue Baochai, and she is getting better and better.
and entrusting her with such a big thing is far more important than managing an inner house......
Perhaps, this is called blessing and misfortune.
