Chapter 83

On the side of the Gu family's west courtyard, Gu Dandan and Gu Shuangshuang were also half angry. They suffered a lot of humiliation in the Xu family that day, and they hated it, but they didn't expect to hear such news less than half a month after returning home.

"What is that Jiang Hanxiao on?" Gu Dandan was so angry that she smashed several bowls, "She's just a village girl, she usually doesn't even have a decent dress, why did she get into the blue eyes of Second Young Master Xu?" ”

Although Gu Dandan has never seen Xu Zisheng, judging from Xu Zixi's appearance and the reactions of those outside, Xu Zisheng must not be bad.

Gu Shuangshuang was also angry in his heart, because Shi Qigongzi really married Xu Yirou. She has always boasted of her beauty, thinking that if she hadn't been stopped by the Xu family that day and didn't let her see Shi Qigongzi, maybe the person who was married to her now would be Shi Qigongzi.

Maybe those people in the Xu family did it on purpose, they saw her beauty, and they were afraid that she would compare Xu Yirou to her, so they stopped their mother and daughter, and didn't let them have the opportunity to see Shi Qigongzi, then the Xu family is really hateful!

However, what can she do if she thinks the Xu family is hateful? Shi Qigongzi has already returned to Fucheng, and she has no chance to see Shi Qigongzi again, unless Shi Qigongzi welcomes her on the day. But the Xu family only interacts with the people of the East Courtyard now, so how could they invite her to watch the ceremony?

Forget it, Fucheng is too far away, and she usually doesn't have a chance to run there at all, so it's better to find something close to home. Now it is the Xu family that really has something to do with it, she actually doesn't look down on the third young master Xu who has no business talent and is average in reading, but this second young master Xu also sounds very good, maybe she can start from the second young master Xu? Anyway, Jiang Hanxiao will not marry for more than a year, and it is normal for some accidents to occur in more than a year.

Jiang Hanxiao didn't know that someone was in the hall with her fiancΓ©'s idea, she was looking at those dowries, and called Jiang Xuehe over to watch them together.

"The fourth sister also knows that although I have learned a lot of things from the second aunt, I still have too little contact with these things on weekdays, and I don't know what the specific value is, so I want to ask the fourth sister to help me take a look." Jiang Hanxiao said helplessly, "Although the Xu family said that because the conditions of the two families are different, our family does not need to return gifts of equal value, but I still don't want to be too bad." ”

Jiang Xuehe smiled: "What does it matter? When the Shi family went to the Xu family to propose, the dowry given was too expensive, and the Xu family couldn't get a return gift of equal value, so they had a headache for a while, and finally had to put all the dowry intact into Sister Rou's dowry. Even if Sister Rou wanted to give Mrs. Xu a few rare things, they didn't accept them. ”

Jiang Xuehe knew that Jiang Hanxiao, like her sister Jiang Yingchun, was a strong person, and she was very stubborn, and her stubborn temper was definitely inherited from Third Uncle Jiang. Because of this stubbornness, although Jiang Hanxiao knew that she was married to one of the richest families in the county, she still didn't want to be too stumbling on the return gift. But how is this possible, the dowry given by the Xu family this time is the best in the county, and even if the third room is bankrupt, it can't come up with so much.

After hearing this, Uncle Jiang said: "Then our family should do the same, so that all the smiles and smiles of the dowry will be brought to the Xu family." ”

Jiang Han smiled but was not very happy: "How can this work?" My brother still wants to marry a daughter-in-law, and Granny Wang is not in good health, so I think I have to leave some for my eldest brother. ”

Uncle Jiang said: "How much does it cost a countryman to marry a daughter-in-law?" Your brother and I have already prepared for your brother's affairs, and we don't need you to make up anything. ”

"But......" Jiang Taohua knew that she couldn't convince her father, her father was honest but much more stubborn than her, and this money had to be secretly stuffed into her mother when her father was not paying attention, "Fourth sister, you better tell me the value of these things first." ”

"I only know a little bit about it, but I can't say for sure."

Jiang Han smiled and said, "How can anyone say the specific price?" I know it here, and I know it in my heart. ”

Jiang Xuehe had to estimate them one by one, Jiang Hanxiao took a piece of paper and wrote them down one by one, and sighed after memorizing: "The names of these things are quite complicated, if I marry in the future, won't I have to come into contact with these things often?" ”

"It's nature." Jiang Xuehe said with a smile, "I remember that Second Young Master Xu has a jewelry shop and a cloth shop on hand, and you will have a lot of things to recognize by then." ”

Jiang Han couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Fortunately, I'm smart, otherwise where would I remember so many things." ”

Jiang Xuehe nodded her forehead and said, "Boasting about yourself, are you ashamed?" ”

Jiang Han pouted with a smile and said, "It's not like I'm boasting, Xu Zisheng also said that I'm smart." ”

Jiang Xuehe couldn't help laughing: "It's okay to talk about this kind of thing, it's really not shameful or impatient." ”

Jiang Hanxiao disagreed: "Since it's a fact, why can't you say it?" What's more, there are no outsiders now. ”

Jiang Hanxiao counted everything and then asked, "Fourth sister, do you think there is anything suitable here for my brother as a dowry?" The Xu family gave more than 500 taels of gift money alone, and I wanted to give the silver, but my brother probably wouldn't accept it. ”

Jiang Hanxiao originally just ordered something, but who would have thought that there was a gift of five hundred taels in it, which made her discouraged all of a sudden. Even if their family bought the house together, it wouldn't be so much! There are fruit forests and the like, but the land of the fruit forest is actually bought by the second house, and the title deed is also in the second house, which has nothing to do with them. At the beginning, Jiang Ershan wanted to give it away for nothing, but Uncle Jiang refused to accept it, and finally said that he asked Uncle Jiang to help take care of the fruit forest. However, only the two rooms and the three rooms have their own doors clear, and they don't know about the big room and the Zhou family.

Jiang Xuehe handed over a box that had just been accidentally missed and said, "It's not just five hundred taels of silver, you see, there are still one hundred taels of gold here." ”

Jiang Hanxiao was stunned: "What do you say is going on with the Xu family?" Where can our family afford this? ”

Jiang Xuehe said helplessly: "I heard that the specifications this time are all according to the previous dowry of the eldest young master Xu, but the second young master Xu has added some jewelry to it. However, Young Master Xu also added it at the beginning, so it is still about the same. People like the Xu family are like this, if they don't give so many words, firstly, they will not be happy, and secondly, outsiders will say that their parents are partial. ”

"That's it, if there is no Shi family, I really can't accept it, but I feel better with the Shi family in front." Jiang Han smiled and said distressedly, "It's just that I suddenly got so much silver, but I can't keep any of it for my family, so I can't get over it in my heart." ”

Jiang Xuehe smiled: "You can pick a few simple pieces of jewelry and give them to Hai Ni when she gets started." You can also use money to buy a few acres of land, saying that it is a dowry for yourself, and the third uncle will not refuse. When the time comes, you can do some more tricks and buy a few acres for the third cousin, won't they be fine? ”

Jiang Hanxiao's eyes lit up: "My sister is right, as long as you want to give it sincerely, you can actually give it out, but I thought about it before." ”

Jiang Xuehe patted her head and smiled: "Isn't it?" You still have more than a year to get married, and there are a lot of places where you can use your money during this time. Besides, aren't you going to follow me this year? Third uncle, they are not willing to use your dowry as a subsidy, and if you spend more at that time, you will say that you will use the salary I gave? ”

Jiang Hanxiao was surprised and said, "Does the fourth sister still want to pay me?" ”

"My brother still settles accounts, there are no rules, there is no circle, and everyone who does things for me has a salary, why don't you have it? In terms of relationships, we are still closer, how can I let you suffer, right? Jiang Xuehe said with a smile.

Jiang Hanxiao felt that Jiang Xuehe said it was very reasonable, and it was not a good thing to be rewarded for nothing, but it was not a good thing to contribute but not receive anything in return. If this is spread by someone with a heart, it will definitely be said that Jiang Xuehe deliberately squeezed his relatives.

After solving a matter on her mind, Jiang Hanxiao was very happy, and continued to follow Jiang Xuehe to Gu's house to study with her. In the past, when Pei taught Jiang Xuehe to be a housekeeper, she had heard a few ears, but at that time she was bored to listen to, and she felt that she didn't need that, so she didn't listen carefully. But now that she is going to marry the Xu family, many things she didn't think she needed to learn in the past have to be learned, and she has to work hard.

She heard Xu Zisheng before that Xu Zisheng probably meant that after marriage, Xu Zisheng would also open a small shop for her or let her run it with Xu Zisheng, no matter which end result it was, she had to learn a little more, and it was not enough to just settle accounts.

"By the way, now that a few months have passed, shouldn't the third cousin go to Heinie's house to propose?" When settling accounts, Jiang Xuehe suddenly thought of this.

Jiang Han smiled and said: "Originally, on the day the Xu family came to propose, my father planned to go to the Wang family to propose. It's just that everyone was stunned when Master Xu came, and they forgot about it for the time being, and they remembered it again yesterday. My mother said that she had to find a good day to propose, and she would go again in three days. If she could, she wanted to get her eldest brother's marriage this year. ”

Jiang Xuehe smiled: "The third aunt is in a hurry to hold her grandson." ”

"But no, there are several grandchildren in the big house, and it's normal for my mother to look greedy." Jiang Han smiled and said with disgust, "But the children in the big house are either spoiled and lawless, or they are scolded for being stupid, I only don't want children." ”

Jiang Xuehe couldn't cry or laugh when she heard it, she still remembered the two children in the big house. The older stinky girl is six years old, one year older than her two younger brothers, because the lobby brother, sister-in-law and Zhou are patriarchal, and the Lin family is also very picky about it, the stinky girl was quite clever when she was a child, but she was scolded every day, and then she became more and more wooden, and her life was even more sad after the birth of Bao Dan.

The younger Bao Dan is four years old, and he often relies on his young age and is favored by everyone in the big house, bullying stinky girls everywhere, not to mention, after living in their second house, he still thinks about grabbing things with Jiang Qingzhu and Jiang Qingliu every day, and once he knocked over Jiang Qingzhu's job in public, and his temperament is amazingly bad. The Lin family doted on this grandson, and the Xiaolin family was very proud of it, and often showed off his might in front of her in the past.

"I heard that the second cousin is also married?" Thinking of this, Jiang Xuehe suddenly asked.

"Well, Hu Xiaohong of Hujia Village has been decided." Jiang Hanxiao sneered, "Hu Xiaohong has always been bitter and unwilling to suffer a loss, and after she marries, the big house will definitely be very lively." ”
