Chapter 210 Family Rules for Marrying Daughters
The people in the room heard that Mrs. Ran was here again, and they said that they would talk about the reading show again. But no matter what, it's better not to offend this matchmaker, or invite someone in.
But I don't want to, this time with Mrs. Ran, there is another person, this person claims to be a steward of the Kou family, and this time he came to improve some etiquette.
Because Tan Jushi said it in the morning, and then he would improve the etiquette, but he didn't expect this to be so fast. It seems that Kou Ergongzi has made a lot of preparations.
said that something was sent, and the cuckoo looked at it and replied:
"Master, what I sent is a heavy gift!"
Shang Dongliang frowned, but he still planned to go and see for himself, a pair of live geese sent by others, and the person who sent the geese said:
"Back to the master, this is the goose that our second son went to hunt personally."
In addition to live geese, there are also all kinds of gifts, and a big cart is full!
Shang Dongliang looked at the gifts taken down from the car and was dumbfounded, among them, there were some valuables. When this second son of Kou came like this, did he move the Hou family?
Master Shang was thinking about it, a carriage came to the door, and the people who got off the car this time were Murong Hou Ye and Kou Ergongzi.
Master Shang suddenly had a headache, this engagement and kissing have always been the business of matchmakers and elders. But these two are good, and they often come to the house once.
And because of their identity, they can't refuse yet! I have to receive it well.
Shang Dongliang greeted him and said salute, but the two of them didn't let him salute. Some things have not been explained, Shang Dongliang treated the two of them as the sons of the Houmen, which was done according to the rules, but now that the affairs of the second son of Kou and Shang Nianlan are on the agenda, then he can't let the old man salute him.
Kou Ergongzi stepped forward and supported Shang Dongliang, making him unable to salute.
The three of them came to the study, and in the study, Shang Ruonan was writing something. I buried my head in writing seriously, and I didn't know how many people had come in.
Because Murong Hou Ye stopped the red clothes who were going to report. And Green Yi stood in a corner inside, and when he saw Murong Hou Ye and them coming in, he just squatted down and saluted, and he didn't squeak.
Murong Hou Ye gently stood behind Shang Ruonan and watched to see what Shang Ruonan was writing. What Shang Ruonan wrote, to be honest, Murong Hou Ye couldn't fully understand it. Because there are some twists and turns, but they don't understand what they are.
And Shang Ruonan is writing a few math problems, thinking about giving some questions to the five and six children, to see which of the two sisters is more sensitive to mathematics, because Shang Ruonan wants to train a financial officer. Then, it is from the sisters of their own family to choose.
The eldest sister is now engaged, and the eldest sister's temperament is not suitable for this, so she can only choose between the fifth sister and the sixth sister.
Shang Ruonan carefully wrote a page of the test paper, which also used some Arabic numbers, thinking that he would use it to test the two of them anyway, and he read it by himself, not for them to see. Just write according to your habits.
But as soon as I put down the pen, I was shocked to feel that there was someone around me. Shang Ruonan was startled, the quill pen in his hand fell off, and when he saw that it was Murong Qing, Shang Ruonan's first reaction was to hide what he had just written, and reached out to grab it, but how fast was her hand as fast as Murong Qing?
Seeing that what he had written fell into Murong Qing's hands, Shang Ruonan's face turned pale with fright. In this era, there are no letters and Arabic numerals, and I have this.... Didn't you call the red clothes and look at it?
Then I thought about it, this red dress was still sent by Murong Qing, how could he only listen to himself!
"Bring it!"
Shang Ruonan thought about it, but he still had to get back what he wrote. But he was not as tall as Murong Qing, Murong Qing raised the paper in his hand a little higher, and Shang Ruonan couldn't get it even on tiptoe.
"Tell me first, what did you write?"
Shang Ruonan glared and scolded:
"Aren't you a marquis, and you're still unreasonable. Is it rude to take other people's things casually? ”
"Xiao Ruonan is polite to me? Hehe, do you have to give me a salute first? It's rude to pull my clothes so fiercely! ”
Shang Ruonan was speechless, he really reached out to reach for the test paper in order to pull it back, but when he couldn't reach it, he pulled Murong Qing's clothes and wanted to pull his hand down.
"You tell me first, what is written, and then I will think about whether to give it to you."
Looking at this scoundrel-like Hou Ye, Shang Ruonan snorted and said:
"Take it if you like, you don't understand what I'm writing anyway."
"I don't understand, so, did Xiao Ruonan teach me?"
Shang Ruonan gave up and returned to the chair to sit, but Murong Qing came over and leaned next to Shang Ruonan to ask for advice.
Shang Ruonan glanced at him and said:
"Bring it, bring it and I'll tell you."
Murong Qing stared at Shang Ruonan's eyes with a smile in his eyes and said:
"Really? I've brought it to you, and you're going to tell it to me? Don't say no! ”
Originally, Shang Ruonan was going to cheat him back, and then he said that when it came to his own hands, how could he return it to him, but what was the country, when he was stared at by Murong Qing, Shang Ruonan felt that his head was empty, like a puppy directly executing the instructions of his master:
"Good!"
Murong Qing then smiled and narrowed his eyes, and gave it to Shang Ruonan and said:
"Tell me later. Now let's talk about your eldest sister. After that, you will have a big brother-in-law. ”
As soon as Murong Qing said this, Shang Ruonan realized that it was not only Murong Qing who was here in the house, but also his father and Kou's second son. Both of them looked at the two of them laughing with amusement on their faces.
Shang Ruonan was originally optimistic about this second son of Kou, but he looked at this matter just now, Shang Ruonan didn't know why, and said with a cold face:
"Hmph, if you want to be my eldest brother-in-law, you have to think about it, my eldest sister didn't marry casually."
Kou Ergongzi was puzzled, he didn't offend this little family master, why did he put on himself all of a sudden?
Kou Er Gongzi asked cautiously:
"I asked my mother to propose marriage in the morning, and now I asked the matchmaker to send a gift, where is it not thoughtful, please ask the little family owner to speak out, I will change it immediately!"
Shang Ruonan pouted and said:
"Although my business is not as good as the rich and powerful people in Beijing, there is no shortage of those two gifts. If you want to marry my merchant's daughter, you have to follow my merchant's family rules. ”
"Ahh What other house rules do merchants have that stipulate the son-in-law's family? ”
Not to mention that Kou Ergongzi was a little suspicious, even Shang Dongliang didn't know which family rule he had missed and didn't remember? Don't you remember any house rules about marrying a girl? Not to mention the house rules for sons-in-law.
