Chapter 239: Dowry
Wang Yingxue saw that her daughter looked disapprenanent, and taught her: "Why don't you think about it?" What kind of ceremony does the British government use to marry Dou Zhao, and how it will treat Dou Zhao when it enters the door - this daughter is not accepted by her in-laws' family, and her status in her mother's family will be completely different. A daughter who is valued by her in-laws can help her mother's family at a critical time; A daughter who is not valued by her in-laws only has her mother-in-law's share of helping her mother-in-law's family, and there is no time when her mother-in-law helps her mother-in-law.
"Marriage is supposed to be a marriage between two surnames. You can't maintain the good relationship between the two surnames, what else can the people of your mother's family do for you?
"Your sister-in-law is so powerful, it hasn't been a month since you entered the door, and she instigated your mother-in-law to let you preside over the feed, and there is not much silver on the account, she clearly wants to defraud your dowryman. Without the help of your mother's family, can you beat your sister-in-law? Are you going to admit defeat like this, and then let your sister-in-law take what she wants? ”
Dou Ming couldn't help but say, "Then what do you say?" ”
She came to her mother for this matter, and wanted her mother to help her come up with an idea.
"Aren't I grounded now?" Wang Yingxue sneered: "You just go to your fifth aunt, pretend that you don't understand anything in front of all your relatives, and ask her what to do?" ”
"But what if she asks me to take over the hosting of the feed?" Dou Ming was very surprised, "As long as they are famous, where do they care if I live well or not?" ”
Wang Yingxue's biggest hope now is to bring back her daughter, who has been brainwashed by the Dou family for a long time and is increasingly estranged from herself.
Otherwise, she really won't have a bright future!
"You're stupid!" Wang Yingxue said, "You just do what your fifth aunt says!" But you have to remember that you will often go to Huaishu Hutong in the future to ask your fifth aunt for advice on how to govern the family. When you go, you wear those clothes over and over again, and when you come to the subordinates, you will look cringe......"
Dou Ming is a smart man. As soon as I heard it, I understood.
She couldn't help but think thoughtfully.
A hint of relief flashed in Wang Yingxue's eyes.
After a while, the little maid talked back.
Her parroted call made Wang Yingxue and Dou Ming's faces change greatly.
"What did you say?" Wang Yingxue stood up even more out of shape, "Master Hou wants to call the fourth aunt to be his brother?" ”
The little maid is a little wooden, otherwise, she would not have been sent by the steward to serve Wang Yingxue.
She nodded and said very seriously: "That's what Shen Shizi said, and he also said that the Hou Ye was unlucky and met the fourth aunt, otherwise." You can press the four aunts to talk about each other. When the old man heard this, he laughed. And several of the master's colleagues also laughed......"
Wang Yingxue's heart suddenly felt like oil.
"Idiot!" She glared at the little maid fiercely, "Who told you to go into such detail?" ”
The little maid lowered her head aggrievedly.
It's not you who said it, let me be fifteen and ten. Do you tell you everything you see and hear?
Dou Ming was also a little impetuous.
She asked the little maid: "When Shen Shizi said this, what did Master Hou say?" ”
The little maid whispered: "Master Hou didn't make a sound. ”
In other words, Wei Tingyu also admitted.
The mother and daughter were silent, and their faces were ugly.
Seeing this, Mama Hu wanted to make a round, and said with a smile: "You little girl, talk nonsense!" The fourth aunt came to pick up the relatives, except for the younger brother and cousin. The others are either the sons of the world or the lieutenants? It's not selling cabbage, it's just one, where did so many sons and lieutenants come from? Did you hear it wrong? ”
Who knew that the little maid couldn't understand Mama Hu's words, and hurriedly argued: "I didn't say it." It was Hou Ye who said this when he introduced him to the master. And they are either wearing flying fish suits or python suits, but they are majestic! Everyone was peeking along the way! Sister Xiaohong also said that if anyone dares to wear these clothes, they will be killed. It can be seen that it is all true! ”
Wang Yingxue and Dou Ming's faces were so gloomy that they could drop rain.
Mama Hu couldn't hold back either. scolded the little girl: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!" ”
The little girl was so frightened that she didn't know what to do with her hands and feet.
Dou Ming suddenly felt bored. waved his hand to the little girl: "You go down!" ”
The little maid ran away as fast as she could.
Wang Yingxue also recovered from the blow and asked Dou Ming: "How can the identity of the prince be more prominent than that of the Hou Ye?" ”
Dou Ming couldn't help but say, "Since you married me to the Marquis of Jining, didn't you inquire about what was going on?" ”
Wang Yingxue was a little uncomfortable and said, "I didn't expect your sister to marry a son." With her conditions, at most, she will marry a scholar from a poor family, maybe your father will leave her at home to recruit a son-in-law......"
Dou Ming couldn't help but be angry.
I had to tell Wang Yingxue about the relationship between the minister's house.
Wang Yingxue was a little dumbfounded: "In other words, they live by the emperor's grace?" ”
Dou Ming nodded and said, "So everyone participates in Qiuwei, and wants to become famous in one fell swoop with Qiuwei and get the favor of the emperor, so that you can rise to prominence in the future!" ”
Wang Yingxue immediately came to her senses and said, "This is the same as a scholar who wants to participate in the imperial examination." Since there is a way to make a career, you are not afraid! Hou Ye's bow and horse riding and shooting are very good, it's a big deal to let your fifth uncle think of a way to help Hou Ye show his face in front of the emperor and find a background. Speaking of this, she told her daughter again, "You have to go to Huaishu Hutong more often." Especially your tenth sister-in-law, Cai, her mother's family is so greedy, it can be seen that she is not a good thing, you might as well start from her. ”
Dou Ming bowed his head and said, "I think so too!" ”
And her tenth cousin, Dou Jichang, was drinking with the people who came to the Song family to urge makeup in the flower hall at this time.
He is handsome, elegant, and funny
It was easy to gain the favor of Wang Qinghuai and others.
Ma Youming smiled and said to Zhang Xuming beside him: "Everyone in the Dou family has a good look, and the fourth lady of the Dou family is definitely not lazy!" Blessed is the inkstone. ”
Zhang Xuming laughed and didn't make a sound.
Gu Yu, who had been listening with his ears, was secretly in his heart.
What's the use of being pretty?
This fourth lady of the Dou family is amazing!
I even dare to put the money in print!
I don't know how to harm Brother Tianci in the future?
Lu Zhan, who was on the side, said with a smile: "The fourth lady of the Dou family should be good-looking - when Dou Ge Lao was selected in the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Officials commented that Dou Ge Lao was 'handsome'!" ”
It's just that as soon as his words fell, Shen Qing, who was sitting opposite, let out a burst of exclamation: "The Dou family actually has such things as hibiscus bird's nest, chicken and shark fin, and bear's paws......"
Several people from the Song family who came to urge makeup turned pale like the bottom of a pot.
Dou Jichang and the others smiled brightly.
Dong Qi is even more like sitting on pins and needles.
Thinking that I have never been so embarrassed when I grow so big, isn't it just a few delicacies, and I can afford to make such a fuss?
He couldn't wait to slap Shen Qing, an upstart in the face, and involuntarily glared at Shen Qing fiercely.
Shen Qing's voice just fell. I knew I was saying the wrong thing. When he saw everyone's expressions, he shrank for a while, and argued in a low voice: "It's not that I haven't eaten, but I didn't expect the Dou family to marry their daughter with such a big deal......
It's getting darker and darker!
Wang Qinghuai hurriedly smiled at Dou Jichang and said: "In the past few years, few people have made this authentic 'swallow wing seat'!" ”
Dou Jichang smiled very gracefully: "It's the master of the Drunken Immortal Building, and I don't know if it's done well or not, let's try it and see what's the difference between it and usual?" If they don't do well, there is a reason to deduct their wages! ”
Wang Qinghuai, Ma Youming and others laughed and uncovered the stubble.
But in the end, he was deflated by Shen Qing. When they waited for their makeup, they were a little more restrained.

In the afternoon, Dou Zhao's dowry went out of the door of the Dou family.
The first lift is the foot-high sandalwood Shoulu Fu Sanweng, followed by all kinds of gold, silver, tinware, silk and satin, and as large as the camphor wood carved box. There are everything from boxwood, Xiangfei bamboo, and Shu bamboo to comb hair, which is not surprising for Wang Qinghuai and others who are from rich backgrounds.
Qi is strange in one of them, it is full of two boxes of silver tickets, each with a pair of red gold lingzhi ruyi pressed by a pair of feet long, and people's eyes are straight.
"Holy!" Ma Youming couldn't help but say. "Fortunately, the fourth lady of the Dou family is married to the British Mansion, if she marries into someone else's family, I am afraid that this dowry will enter the door with the front foot, and there will be thieves on the back foot!" He said. couldn't help but sigh towards Wang Qinghuai, "The Dou family's courage is really big!" ”
The calm Wang Qinghuai couldn't help but change color a little.
Although he deals with silver every day, he takes out a silver ticket in one breath...... And appearing naked/naked in the wedding team like this still made him feel shocked.
"At least 40,000 taels of silver tickets!" He couldn't help but take a look. said, "One water is full of silver tickets for ten taels of Tongde Silver Building!" The Dou family must be one of the few big customers of Tongde Silver Building. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Tongde Yinlou to print so many eleven taels of silver tickets specifically for the Dou family, which would have to be printed for at least a few months. ”
Wang Qinghuai deals with money every day and is more sensitive to these.
Tongde Silver Building, is the largest silver building in North Zhili, is one of the few time-honored brands left in the previous dynasty, Tong Su is not bullied, and the strength is strong.
Can make Tongde Silver Building bend its waist......
Shen Qing couldn't help but shudder when he heard this, and said, "No, it won't be, right?" So much silver? How, how to spend it? Then he thought wildly, "You say, if I borrow some silver from Song Da, he won't refuse me?" ”
No one paid any attention to him.
Gu Yu grimaced.
The Dou family took so much silver to marry their daughter, there must be something wrong with this daughter!
Dong Qi's mind was blank.
He only knew that Song Mo had found a very powerful wife, and the gap between him and Song Mo was even farther.
Zhang Xuming thought that Song Mo invited his wife to be a concubine, and it seemed that he had to tell his wife about some things.
Only Lu Zhan has a lovely smile.
It seems that my uncle is still attentive to the marriage of Yantang.
He went back and told his grandfather, who must have been pleased!
Song Han's face was full of blankness, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.
※※※※※
Dou Shishu got off the ya, originally going to go to an appointment, before getting on the sedan chair, thinking that today was the day when Dou Zhao gave makeup, he instructed his entourage: "You can help me push the dinner, I want to go to Jing'an Temple Hutong to have a look." ”
It seems that the elder Ge still feels a little guilty about the fourth lady!
The entourage responded and instructed the sedan chair man to send Dou Shishu to the alley of Jing'an Temple.
But when the sedan chair walked to Jing'an Temple, it couldn't enter.
The entourage sweated profusely and explained: "I met Miss Four, and I made up my makeup!" ”
Dou Shishu said "um", lifted the curtain to look, and heard the crowd around him buzzing and talking: "Lift the silver ticket all the time!" Pressed with four stalks of red gold Ruyi, the Ruyi, the golden one, more than a foot long, and the weight is sufficient, it can blind the eyes...... The silver tickets are all the same, not 100,000 taels, but 50,000 taels...... I've lived for such an age, and it's the first time I've seen a daughter married like this! The Dou family deserves to be the richest man in the dynasty! ”
Directly exaggerates things several times.
