Chapter 40: The autumn silkworm actually spun silk
I saw the family arguing with each other.
Zhao Linxian suddenly spoke: "I have decided, I will not change, but I am going to use ten acres of land and twenty pieces of silk for the dowry, so I will discuss it with my mother." ”
Ten acres of land and twenty pieces of silk!
Wang was the first to exclaim: "Oh God! How many daughters-in-law can you marry in the village, three brothers, didn't I say you, what is the situation at home, don't you know in your own heart? You're going to starve your whole family to marry you a daughter-in-law!" Then Miss Su is afraid that she will not be able to add gold all over her body, and she will ask for so many dowries. ”
Although the Yang family thinks that this dowry is a bit much, but the daughter of the foreign family is indeed different from the people in the village, she has already prepared for this, and there should be a little dowry at that time, so it shouldn't be too much of a loss!
Seeing that everyone was silently opposed, Wang alone was babbling like an ant on a hot pot: "Do you all agree?" Second brother and second brother and sister, what about you! I remember that I was bought in exchange for an acre of paddy fields! The second brother and sister are similar, how can you get to the third brother and sister, there are so many times more, why! ”
Zhao Tiezhu was really afraid of his mother-in-law, but her mother didn't speak, so she said there alone, she was really not afraid of being scolded: "Don't talk first." ”
The Wang family was worried that there was no place to spread the fire, and Zhao Tiezhu sent it himself: "Shut up, you, you are the eldest son in the family, why is it so unproductive, your younger brother has to spend so much money to marry a daughter-in-law, everyone's life is over, our tiger baby said in a blink of an eye that it is about to go to school for enlightenment, and the master's bundle is not ready yet!" Where is he so nonsense. ”
These words also speak of Jiang's heart, her family's wooden stick is not much smaller than the tiger baby, and it is about to go to school, if it is because of the marriage of the brother and delays the children in the family to go to school, it is too much, after all, everyone is counting on their son to pull the book!
Yang saw his daughter-in-law shouting like this, and his voice was louder than her: "What are you yelling about, think about how many paddy fields we only had before, is the newly added paddy field that San Lang made money outside and came back to buy it, what are you distressed about, not to mention the silk, the silkworm was also bought by San Lang's money, he used his own silver and paddy fields to marry his daughter-in-law, can you cry and shout?" ”
Wang disagreed: "Mother, you can't say that!" We haven't split up, isn't the money Saburo earns together? You must not neglect your grandson, but your youngest son. ”
Yang's anger was not in one place: "When the silkworms spin silk and sell it for money, the paddy fields will start to be cultivated next year, and the tiger baby will be delayed to go to school?" You're just jealous. ”
"The same is to marry into your Zhao family and give birth to children for your Zhao family, why are we worthless, or do you say, the young lady of the Su family married and gave a lot of dowry, and her dowry was also more, so if she can take out her dowry for public use, then I will agree." Wang will not back down in the face of interests, these years have not been separated, the family's money is in the hands of her mother-in-law, how much money can she save privately, now as soon as she opens her mouth, it is ten acres of paddy fields, twenty horses of silk, she has never seen so many things.
The Yang family has no way to deal with the Wang family, although they can scold her twice, but after all, they can't be beaten, she married the eldest son and gave birth to the eldest grandson, if she is beaten in the Zhao family, don't say that the Wang family doesn't do it, and you will be pointed at in the village.
However, Zhao Linxian's decision will not change: "I know that the sisters-in-law have complaints, although we have not separated, but I said when I raised silkworms before, you can divide the money according to the household, and when the time comes, all the sisters-in-law will go out, and it belongs to me, and I will use it as a dowry." ”
Wang stopped talking for a moment.
Yang Shi also said: "You don't want to spend a lot of money to marry a jade concubine now, so don't worry about the dowry brought by the jade concubine at that time, it's very good." ”
In this regard, Zhao Linxian did not make any promises, he knew the situation of the Su family, Su Rongchang made it clear that he would not give a dowry, that is, Qiao's family would give Su Yuyan's private money, looking at Qiao's miserable appearance, who could still use her private money, but he didn't know it now.
Wang's heart is also a calculation, originally the mother-in-law is also a stingy person, and she actually agreed to San Lang to marry Miss Su with so many dowries, it should be that Miss Su's dowry is a lot, if you offend your mother-in-law now, you really won't get any benefits in the future, so after thinking about it, she won't speak.
The Yang family knew what kind of virtue the Wang family was, and they loved to take advantage of it, and when they heard Su Yuyan's dowry, they shut up: "No one objected!" ”
Wang's face changed with a 360-degree turn: "Mother, you are the head of the family, you have the final say." ”
Seeing that the Wang family agreed, the Jiang family naturally didn't say anything more, they were all a family, even if the mother-in-law liked the younger son, it was impossible to treat other children and grandchildren lightly.
Seeing that everyone had no objections, Yang said to Zhao Linxian: "San Lang, my mother supports you, but you have to wait for the silkworm to spin the silk before you can hire the silk." ”
Zhao Linxian nodded: "Mother looked at it." ”
This Luo clan has been waiting for the Zhao family's silkworm to be killed by Su Yuyan! But a few days have passed, and there is no movement in the Zhao family, is it possible that he is not dead? It shouldn't be! That Su Yuyan is possessed by the god of decay, she obviously came once, and the silkworms of the Zhao family became ill, and there was no reason not to die on the second trip.
She planned to go to Zhao's house to have a look.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the Zhao family, the Zhao family was beaming! The autumn silkworm, which was about to die of illness, actually spit silk this morning.
This Zhao family is doing a good job and is ready to pick silk.
Luo was a little stunned, what's going on, Su Yuyan is possessed by the immortal god? It must be impossible, it must be the reason why Su Yuyan has not married yet, so the bad luck brought is not much, but the autumn silkworm is half dead, if he really marries, the Zhao family will not have a good life.
The Zhao family was busy picking silk, and they didn't have time to greet Luo, so they asked Luo to find a place to sit by himself.
The Yang family is in good spirits on happy occasions, and his face is full of red light: "He Aunt Luo! My family San Lang agreed to marry the jade concubine, picked silk, and we went to the next hire, and when the time came, I bothered him to go with Aunt Luo. ”
As soon as Luo heard this, his wounded heart had a trace of joy, okay, it's best to marry Su Yuyan back as soon as possible, and when the time comes, there will be a time for you to cry. "Okay, okay, you're busy, just call me when it's time to get hired."
After Luo finished speaking, he left, out of sight was pure, looking at the Zhao family's busy work, with a bumper harvest, his heart was about to bleed.
When other people in the village heard that the autumn silkworms raised by the Zhao family had spun silk, they came to congratulate them, and there were also helpers, hoping to get a little bit of experience from the Zhao family.
After this batch of silkworms was harvested, when they were totaled, there were dozens of catties of silk more than expected, and one pound of silk was sold for one or two silver, which was a few dozen taels of silver!
Even the village chief went to Zhao's house, hoping that Zhao Linxian would teach the villagers to raise silkworms.
However, Zhao Linxian still knows little about the techniques taught by Mulberry, and he doesn't dare to say that he is very handy at raising silkworms, so naturally he can't promise the village chief anything, after all, once he inherits it, all the villagers will go to raise autumn silkworms, in case it is not handled well, let other people's autumn silkworms die, this is a great responsibility.
The village chief was rejected by Zhao Linxian, and he was inevitably a little unhappy in his heart, and told his mother-in-law Luo, who scolded and scolded: "Then Zhao Jiasanlang is just a fluke, and he will not have such good luck in the future." ”
The village chief was already depressed, but when he heard his daughter-in-law's words, he became even more manic: "You can't say a word that you hear." ”
Luo was also aggrieved in his heart: "Don't lie at me if you are angry!" Look at it! There are times when Zhao Saburo is unlucky. ”
Although Zhao Linxian is reluctant to teach everyone to raise silkworms, it is impossible for the village chief to have such a mind as Luo's, there are capable people in the village, and the village chief also has a light on his face! I didn't bother to talk to Roche, so I went straight into the house.
Luo calculated in his heart that he was going to urge the Zhao family to be hired.
Half a month has passed, and I don't see the Zhao family coming to hire them, but the Gu family frequently comes to the door, either to give a dowry list, or to give Gu Jiafu and Su Yuyan eight characters together, exchanging Geng posts.
On the contrary, Su Yuyan's side was deserted, and the Zhao family did not send a matchmaker over.
Su Rongchang began to be irritable again, for Su Yufei, he was really sad and gray-haired, to see which family's daughter was not chased by others to marry, only his Su Yuyan, who wanted him to urge him to marry quickly, which was originally set, and he regretted it! I didn't see a single figure, and if you want to say that this cropper is not credited.
Su Yuyan didn't have the confidence to say anything, it was originally her birthday tomorrow, and it may have been her and Qiao's in the courtyard again.
After tomorrow, she will really be eighteen years old, at this age, there are few who have not decided on her mother-in-law's family, Su Yuyan's mood suddenly brightened, if she can't get married, she can't get married! It's pretty good, too.
Qiao wanted to comfort Su Yuyan, but Su Yuyan couldn't listen to these words the most, so she found an excuse to go out.
At the gate of Dongzhuang Village, Su Yuyan stared at the carriage, and kept wondering whether to go to Zhao's house to ask, but this was too unreserved! But what if Zhao Linxian forgets it! How can such a thing be forgotten?
Su Yuyan was suffering in her heart.
At this time, a familiar voice sounded in a low voice: "Are you waiting for me?" ”
Su Yuyan raised her head suddenly, and Zhao Linxian's handsome face appeared in front of her, making her heart beat faster: "No! I'm wandering around, how did you get into town. ”
Su Yuyan's lost face just now, he really saw it: "I went to the city to sell silk." ”
"Oh, the silk sells okay!" Su Yuyan knew that Zhao Linxian couldn't have come to her to kiss her.
"Yes, it's okay." Zhao Linxian thought that after selling all the silk at home, she could come to the next hire, and realized that she had neglected her recently, she thought that she would not come to the next hire, so she was so disappointed! But he didn't know how to explain it.
The eerie atmosphere overshadowed the entire street, and in order to hide her embarrassment, Su Yuyan looked away, as if it seemed to be an understatement.
