Chapter 247: The Informant
Lan Niang didn't know much about the follow-up development, and every day she was either at her own house, or doing needlework with the Song family at Zhang Orion's house. On this day, I just came out of Song's house to go home, and I saw Mazi squatting at the door.
Mazi went to the dock to inquire, and only came back at this time.
Mazi rubbed his hands with a smile and said, "Hello sister-in-law, second brother asked me to tell you about the shop at the dock." The second brother is really like a god, and many of the shops on the dock have to be shot. But the price is not low. A shop costs a hundred taels of silver. There are many people who sell shops, but there are few people who buy them. ”
Lan Niang was surprised: "Many? ”
Mazi nodded: "This is still the river demon's trouble." I went this time, and there were several more lives. It seems that there really is a river demon. When I first went there, the shop was sold for one hundred and fifty taels, and no one bought it. Now the price is reduced day by day, and it still can't be sold. If my sister-in-law has money, don't go on this troubled water. ”
"I see, thank you. I'll tell you when your second brother comes back. Lan Niang smiled and nodded, thank you for your kindness.
Mazi Lili went down the mountain. This time, after going out for so many days, he couldn't eat well, and he had to have a full meal when he went home, so as to be worthy of his hard work during this time. When I have dinner, I have to run a few houses. There are a few girls and boys, who want to know the situation, and they have come to inquire, the prices are easy to talk about, and the road is too far, this job is easy.
There is a matchmaker when it comes to matchmaking, who knows if the matchmaker is talking about people or ghosts? That's where they come in handy. Within a radius of ten miles, when inquiring about the news, pockmarks and dogs ranked first, and no one dared to rank second.
During this period of farming, those who have a way to go to the city to find a short-term job, and those who have no way to chop wood and repair houses at home, ushering in winter.
It is also a good time for boys and girls from various families to get married, and to take this kind of work of inquiring about the news, Mazi and Dog are the most willing. In some people's homes, they don't have to inquire about both, they all know that it is a human or a dog. It's quick and easy to get money.
The two of them split up and wanted to save money. It's good to marry your daughter-in-law. Mako has already taken a fancy to a girl. Not far from Lan Niang's mother's house, it is also in the mountains, and it is deeper. There are many daughters in the family and many sons. In order to marry a daughter-in-law for their son, their family demanded a high dowry for their daughter.
A few years ago, there were many people who asked about my daughter when she was thirteen or fourteen years old, and they asked for a high dowry, and the posture was not like they wanted to take their daughter to her mother-in-law's house, and there were few dowries, so they didn't negotiate.
Drag it out, now that the girl is seventeen or eighteen, people are also in a hurry. If there is less dowry, it should be a little higher. Still no one asked.
This girl is a good girl, she has a good heart and strength, and she is very diligent. He has a round face, and the person is a little dark, and he is not very good-looking. The point is like going to live. Asako is particularly satisfied.
Look at how good Lan Niang's sister-in-law is, she takes care of the housework in the field, and Erlang is idle all day long, and the days are getting better and better. According to this breed, I found this girl, in addition to not being very beautiful, it is not worse than Lan Niang. My mother's home is far away, even if I want to subsidize my mother's family, it's too far to go.
Mazi rubbed his hands, walked faster under his feet, and hurriedly saved money to marry his daughter-in-law.
This Lan Niang went to Zhang Dalang unhurriedly to bring a letter to let the Xin family have time to come to the house to play. At the same time, tell the Song family about this.
Song couldn't make up his mind after hearing this, and asked with some hesitation: "What do you and your head of the house think?" ”
"We discussed it before we left, and we bought it if we could." Lan Niang said.
The Song family was so entangled.
