The first volume was young and thin at the time Chapter 526 Du Nineteen was hired, and the jade slave saw your lord
The deadline for asking for names had already been completed before Du Shiyi returned to Chang'an from Luoyang. Nacai is the day before the dowry gift, Chang'an also rained for the first time in the winter, but on the right day, it was raining and the sky was clear, and the sky was as clear as a wash, which was just a good day that could not be haode anymore. Because of this marriage in the two Kyotos, there are different opinions, some think that Du Shiyi is greedy for the money of the Wang family, and some regret it, and many people think that Du Shiyi is just because of the words of the Son of Heaven, so he had to make such a marriage
Therefore, when the dowry gift was sent out from the old house of the Du family in Duqu in Fanchuan, not only the dignitaries and dignitaries who lived in Fanchuan were curious, but also the people along the way were also amazed. There are many princes and nobles in the two capitals, and everyone has seen extravagant weddings, so it doesn't matter how many people are in the dowry team, the east and west side of the shoulder car is the most important.
The Du family's dowry gifts are all open shallow-bottomed boxes, and the contents are unobstructed. There were no jewels and jewels, nor any bright gold and silver, and the first ten lifts of the head were all books, and most of them were scrolls that looked very old, and the haode books were carefully tied with red ribbons, and the rest were covered with red silk. The people who had good things tried their best to get close to inquire and snoop, and when they heard that those covered with red silk were bamboo slips from the Warring States period and silk books of the Han Dynasty, most of them were puzzled. And the next ten are the four treasures of the study and all kinds of utensils, not those new pen, ink, paper and inkstones that Du Shiyi commissioned Qianbaoge to sell in the past, but a lot of old things. Even if they are willing to investigate, ordinary people can't ask why. However, in the seemingly fluttering box among the four lifts of Zuihou, there are things that others think are the most valuable.
The eight deeds include eight shops in the east and west cities of Chang'an and the south city. According to today's market price, it has already exceeded 100,000 yuan.
Although everyone knows that a net worth like Wang Yuanbao will naturally not covet his son-in-law's dowry, this kind of handwriting naturally shows that Du Shiyi is not one of those poor scholars, but a close minister of the Son of Heaven who pulled his family that was almost ruined back then from the quagmire, and now he has become an official and a close minister of the Son of Heaven
According to Du Shiyi's original intention, he didn't plan to be so public, this is what Du Siwen meant. According to the words of this Zhu Po Jing Zhaogong, the two capitals are heavy on clothes and wealth, and if the prince ingots make people feel that you have power and no wealth, it will inevitably make people look down on them, it is better to expose the bottom, this is also to let the married son of heaven see, you are not greedy for the wealth of the king's ingots. Therefore, Du Shiyi had no choice but to accept this suggestion.
Today, those who went to Yong'an Fang's mansion to give a dowry gift were his cousin Du Anzhi and brother-in-law Cui Jianxuan. Wang Yuanbao has many mansions in Chang'an City, and he chose this one to marry his daughter, but it is because this mansion is not only neat enough, but also has a long history and enough heritage. Although because there is no one in the house, many of the buildings in this mansion have been demolished or rebuilt, but at this moment, when standing in the former Zhumen to welcome the dowry, Wang Yuanbao couldn't help but change his face for a moment when he saw the ten books in front of his head, and his eyes were no longer only happy, but also deeply moved.
"Grandpa?"
"It's not easy to collect these books from Du Jiulang." Wang Yuanbao muttered softly to his eldest son Wang Xian on the side, and then did not explain, but stepped forward to receive the dowry with a spring breeze on his face. When he saw the deed of Zuihou's four lifts, his eyes changed again, and when he cheered up and left Cui Jianxuan and Du Anzhi to send them away after dinner, he hurried to his daughter's boudoir.
"Du Jiu Lang sent a full ten rare books, his younger brother Du Anzhi said, Du Jiu Lang means that in the future, I can open a library in my Wang's house, and put the manuscripts out for others to borrow, so that one can be famous, two can be good, and three can edify the children. As for those four treasures and old ornaments in the study, are you asking for them? ”
"Yes." Wang Rong nodded with a smile and said calmly, "The son of the Jingzhao Du clan married me, the daughter of the nouveau riche in other people's mouths. Naturally, one shows people with the background of books, and the other shows people with wealth. Grandpa, no matter how much money you have, there is no power to rely on, it is inevitable that people will be swordsmen, I am fish and meat, and there are still people in the family who still need to study, and the two brothers are not reading materials, but my nephews may not be all too peaceful and prosperous, and even if others plan the royal family's industry, they will be a little more scruples, but what if the world is in chaos? What kind of people are the two sisters-in-law, Grandpa should know, and I hope to plan for my nephews as soon as possible."
Wang Yuanbao has always known that his daughter is smarter than his two sons, and when he heard these words like an empowerment, he couldn't help but be silent. Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, he didn't want to take care of his son's family affairs before, but his grandson's affairs are not only his son's family affairs, but also related to the future of the Wang family.
"Young lady, I listen to you. However, those deeds ......"
"Du Lang said that he didn't want to take these back, and he was a court official who ran these, which was naturally not as convenient as our family. Grandpa, you leave the deed, and I will let someone take over these. ”
The jade slave who was in the same room looked at Wang Yuanbao curiously, and then looked at Wang Rong thoughtfully, until the former spoke for a while and got up to leave, she asked Wang Rong curiously: "Master, do you want your nephews to study and become scholars, and support you?" ”
"You guessed wrong this time." Wang Rong smiled and caressed the smooth hair of the jade slave, and then said lightly, "As long as they don't cause trouble for me, how can I expect them to support me?" The two brothers are much older than me, at that time, the grandfather did not have such a big family business, there was no room for choice, so the chosen daughter-in-law was naturally mediocre, and if it was a rich wife, it would inevitably be a loss of conscience, but if they let the next generation of Wang family children be bad, even if the grandfather did not leave the glass workshop to them, but handed over those easy-to-manage fields, weaving mills, etc., to them, one day they will not be able to keep it. ”
"The jade slave seems to understand, but it doesn't seem to understand."
Wang Rong rubbed Yunu's forehead and said earnestly: "When you get married in the future, the master will tell you slowly." By the way, my master and the Lord of Yuzhen Guan both want to meet you, but I have not been able to go out for the past two days, and they said that they came on the day of the box, so you should not be stage frightened at that time. ”
"Good teacher, don't worry, it's not like you haven't seen the world"
Having said that, when it came to the day before the makeup, when Princess Yuzhen and Princess Jinxian really came together and brought a Princess Gu'an, Yunu couldn't help but be a little stunned. Although Princess Yuzhen and Princess Jinxian did not dress up purely on this day, but looked like ordinary noblewomen, when they sat there, their bearings were very different. And Princess Gu'an certainly doesn't wear ceremonial clothes or obey Dianchai, but she used to be the princess of the Xi family, and now she is the actual lord of Yunzhou, and her demeanor is also superior. She still saw Wang Rong nodding at herself with a smile and encouragement, so she stepped forward to bow and worship.
"Stop worshipping, get up." Princess Gu'an was full of interest when she saw that Princess Yuzhen and Princess Jinxian were all interested, and she only let Yunu bend her knees and pull them over. She took a closer look and saw that the little girl was born with bright eyes and bright teeth, and she was very dexterous, so she laughed, "Brother is really good." Xiao Yunu, your master calls me a sister, you will yujian me in the future, remember to call my aunt, don't call me any noble lord. Of course, don't let anyone know. ”
"Yes, you...... Aunt. The jade slave hurriedly changed his name, and then turned his head and secretly looked at Princess Yuzhen and Princess Jinxian, and asked cautiously, "Then the other two noble lords, should I also be called aunt?" ”
Her innocent question immediately made both of them laugh. Princess Yuzhen shook her hand at Princess Jinxian, pulled the little girl in front of her, and asked with a smile, "Do you think we can be your aunt at our age?" ”
"Why not? Aren't the two noble lords the aunt's sisters? ”
Princess Yuzhen smiled at one sentence, and even Princess Jinxian couldn't help but laugh. The two sisters are both about to be forty people, compared to Princess Gu'an, who was less than thirty years old at the time, no matter how well she maintained, she would inevitably show her old state. Now, as if she had regained the feeling of youth from the fairy tales of the jade slave, Princess Yuzhen directly took off a Khotanese mutton fat jade bracelet from her wrist, while Princess Jinxian was not so direct, she just smiled and took a box from the maid's hand: "It's the first time I'll see you today, and it's a gift for you." In terms of generation, Yuan Yuan and I can be your grandmothers. ”
"But the two nobles are not old at all...... But isn't this too much? ”
The jade slave said this, but saw that Princess Yuzhen and Princess Gu'an had maidservants behind them who sent boxes of similar size, and they were even more panicked for a while. It wasn't until Wang Rong nodded that she bowed down again and took the thing, and obediently lowered her hand and retreated to Wang Rong's side.
"Du Lang was also a talent at the beginning. She learns the pipa very quickly, and when I asked her to play it the first two days, it was better than when we started from Yazhou last year. Du Lang said that if there is a genius above the rhythm, it is like Yu Nu. ”
"To be praised like this by Du Jiulang, this kid must be very smart. If it's not the right time today, you must listen to her pipa. ”
Wang Yuanbao didn't expect that the three princesses would come together today, and he was afraid that he would be in great joy when he was afraid of being short of people. Even if the gift of adding boxes is not those precious gold and jade brocades, but all Taoist classics, Princess Gu'an gave more brittle than the Zhemu bow, but he only feels that it is more precious than anything else. It may be because of the blessing that Princess Yuzhen and others have come here to sit, and several clan and county lords who have traveled back and forth between Yuzhen Temple and Jinxian Temple, and have also seen Wang Rong, have also sent more or less box gifts, especially when Princess Ning, who had seen Wang Rongmian in Taoguang Garden, also sent a pair of jade rings, Wang Yuanbao couldn't help but be extremely pleased.
What he has always been most worried about is that his daughter has to become the concubine of those dignitaries, but now he can finally see the moment when she gets married
