The two sisters always like to laugh, Zheng Qijun has heard too much, and he is no longer very shy, so he simply responded: "Yes." ”

Although the Cai family is not in a high position, they are not short of money, and the dowry of the Cai family's sister is not thin, not to mention that her biological mother's dowry, except for the part given to her brother, most of the rest is to follow Cai Yuran.

Zheng Qijun and Cai Qiran's marriage is scheduled for the next year, and the Changju Courtyard has been renovated neatly, just waiting for the couple to move in.

Zheng Changchang and Mi Jiyue went to the Guogong Mansion to give a festival gift during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which can be regarded as easing the relationship on behalf of the three of their sisters and brothers, Zheng Guogong treated Mi Jiyue very politely, and Zheng Changchang has always been a submissive and obedient person in front of him, but he was 'bad' by Zheng Lingyi.

Zheng Guogong and Zheng Lingyi almost lost contact, but they still met with Wu Punishment, Wu Punishment treated him just as a face-saving courtesy, Zheng Guogong understood in his heart, but it was okay to get by on the face.

He just didn't expect that the relationship between this son-in-law and his daughter was so good, a manly husband should focus on the overall situation, so he would worry about some children's petty feelings, Zheng Guogong always felt that Wu Punishment was a little not atmospheric.

If Zheng Lingyi and Wu Zhi knew about this thought, they would probably only sneer, and they wouldn't even bother to argue with him.

Hearing Zheng Changchang ask about Zheng Qijun's new residence, Zheng Guogong said with a somewhat complicated expression: "He said that repairing the yard is quite complicated, and he doesn't want me to work hard, so I have to take care of it myself." I thought it was the young man who had a big mouth, but he really did a good job. I'll just give some money, let him go on his own. ”

Zheng Changchang smiled slightly, listening to Mi Jiyue praising Zheng Guogong a few words wrongly, she knew that Zheng Guogong gave three thousand taels, Zheng Qijun didn't want it, it was the county lord who accepted it and handed it over to him.

'Three thousand taels, that's a lot. Zheng Changchang's eyes fell on the west window behind Zheng Guogong, and saw a yellow leaf falling leisurely, like a piece of gold leaf, remembering that in the past, she lived in this home with her sister and aunt, and she was happy when she saved a small bag of silver for half a year, and now, the daily expenses are more than this.

Three thousand taels, what is it for Zheng Guogong?

Autumn pears, pomegranates, chestnuts, hawthorns, honeydew melons, jujubes, all the fruits that fall in this season, all sent to Cai Qiuran, Mrs. Chen couldn't eat so many sweets, and she was hungry again, so Cai Qiran brought these back to Cai's house and shared them with the Zhou family.

The chestnuts were sent to the kitchen, and the hawthorn instructed them to make sugar gourds, crispy dates, fragrant pears, and honeydew melons were washed and cut on the tea table.

Zhou ate three crispy dates in a row before stopping, and joked: "I told your future husband to support you, you have to take care of me for the rest of my life." ”

Cai Yuran ignored her in shame, and pushed the melon towards Cai Suisui.

Cai Suisui pursed her lips and smiled implicitly, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and then pinched a piece to eat.

There was a little maid outside the door, it was in Cai Suisui's courtyard, saying that her aunt had something to look for her, Cai Suiran asked people to divide some of those melons and fruits, and let Cai Suisui take them back, Cai Suisui thanked her sister and sister-in-law softly, and went back with her maid.

Zhou's son was also stuffed with a piece of melon in his hand, he didn't have a few usable teeth, and it was still an intact melon after gnawing for a long time, but he licked away some sweet water, and he was also tired of gnawing it.

Zhou wiped his son's mouth with a smile, thought of something, the smile on his face suddenly faded a little, and said to Cai Yuran: "Your brother will be back in two days, don't worry, I will definitely think of your marriage in my hand for you." ”

Cai Qiran looked at Zhou and smiled, and said: "Thank you sister-in-law for bothering me, Liu wants to take advantage of this business to make money, if she has been honest all these years, forget it, but she is as annoying as a fly, so I don't want her to taste the sweetness." ”

"It's so powerful, I'm afraid that no one knows her mind." Zhou said disdainfully, glanced at Cai Yuran, and said in a low voice: "I heard that the one in the Guogong Mansion doesn't seem to be a good match." ”

Cai Qiran looked at Zhou Shi and blinked, but did not speak.

Zhou patted her and said, "What? What can't I say? ”

Cai Qiran pinched a crispy jujube and took a bite, and said, "It's not that I can't say it." His sister has long been frank, saying that the main mother of the Guogong Mansion is powerful, she used to be mean and had a lot of means, but her sisters earned it one by one, and her own sons are not promising, and her mother's family is also declining, and she is not as rampant and confident as before. ”

She paused, her face flushed, and said, "I passed the door, she can't guarantee that I won't be angry at all, but she promises that her brother will protect me." ”

"Yo!" Zhou dragged out his voice and smiled, smiled again, and said, "It's that Young Lady Wu, right?" ”

Cai Yuran nodded, and Zhou said again: "You can speak so frankly? ”

"Didn't we listen to gossip in the past, some people said that she was not filial and virtuous, and her tongue was tricky and spicy? I think she has a very good temperament, but she has a reverse scale and cannot be touched. ”

Zhou looked at Cai Yuran for a while, nodded his head and teased: "How do I think, this sister-in-law has more appetite for you than her brother." ”

Zheng Qijun's smiling face at her came to Cai Qiran's mind, I don't know anything else, but she has a good temperament, she muttered vaguely, "Who knows?" ”

Zhou looked at her and smiled silently, the autumn breeze outside the door was cool, and she was busy adding a cloak to her child.

As soon as the door was closed and opened, it was already the snowy season of the wax moon.

Shuojing fell snow two days earlier, Zheng Mianmian hired a family at the end of the alley to clear the snow, as soon as the door was opened, it was a clean road, the girl was wearing a red thick cotton jacket, wearing silk flowers on her head, and generously sent roasted taro and potato porridge to the Li family, Zheng Mianmian and Li Ping's family affairs, the New Year is going to be a happy event, and the whole alley is known.

Zheng Mianmian can rest assured that Aunt Wan is not good, she still wants to recruit trouble, but when she mentions this, Uncle Li's face is white, and the matchmaker is considered to have a heart, and she is kind enough to spread the word between the two families, saying that Zheng Mianmian just wants to take care of her mother conveniently.

As soon as Li Ping heard this, he said that he could let Aunt Wan live with them, which was originally a distance from a wall, and as for whose surname the child was, he didn't mind anymore, even he didn't want the surname Li very much, and he didn't have to ask the child to follow the surname.

Li Ping is so good at talking, Aunt Wan couldn't stop laughing when she heard it, there is nothing to say, Aunt Wan has always said to the outside world that her husband's family is a distant relative of the Kou family and also surnamed Kou, in order to establish a foothold in Shuojing, is it also to let the child follow the surname?

When I think about it this way, I don't have the idea of having to get people into trouble.

Uncle Li and Aunt Li came to the door one day and explained Li Ping's family background, the Li family's courtyard has a house deed, and the Li family forced him to sell it once, and Li Ping scraped together the money to buy it back, which is really his thing.

There are still a few acres of thin fields on the outskirts of Shuojing, and there is no input, and Li Ping is a soft-hearted person, and the tenant farmer gives him a few bags of rice and flour rations every year, even if he has resisted.

In addition, it is Li Ping's little money in the academy. Uncle Li and Aunt Li said that the old faces were flushed, and they couldn't raise their heads, they were thinking that when Zheng Mianmian got married, they would naturally know when they took charge of the family, but Li Ping had to tell them to make it clear.

Aunt Wan was a little surprised, she didn't think that the house was still Li Ping's, nor did she think that he still had a few acres of land, so the two would still get married in Li Ping's house.

After the New Year, Zheng Qijun and Zheng Mianmian's marriage was close, but it was three days apart.

is not as grand as Zheng Qijun's wedding, Zheng Mianmian's marriage only sounded a string of firecrackers, the good neighbors gathered together to eat the feast, Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang came with gifts from the Kou family, and Zheng Qijun's shopkeeper in Shuojing sent a few large loads of pastries and fruits, let Zheng Mianmian take them to the neighborhood as a return gift, although this marriage is simple, but it couldn't be more enjoyable.

The Lu family naturally had no intention of making a face for Zheng Qijun, but Zheng Guogong thought that there were too many frustrations in the family recently, so he insisted on making a big deal.

Wu Rouxiang looked uncomfortable, and didn't dare to throw Zheng Rong'an's face, but when she pressed him on the shoulder, it blew a lot of wind.

Zheng Rong'an was humiliated in the county lord's mansion, Wu Rouxiang didn't know, Zheng Rong'an waved her hand away violently, and scolded angrily: "Dad is dizzy!" Doing business, and marrying a woman who is full of copper smell, what can you do! It's even a baby! ”

Wu Rouxiang was pushed by him and hit the bedpost, her shoulder hurt badly, and she was very angry in her heart, hearing that Zheng Rong'an was so angry with Zheng Qijun, she quickly added fuel to the fire and said, "Who said it wasn't." Dad is confused, we can't be confused, he took advantage of the scenery of our family to marry, and Dad is making up for the left and the right, how can there be such a good thing? We've got to tell him to bleed!" ”

Zheng Rong'an was angry, and he didn't care what she meant by some blood, but Wu Rouxiang made up her mind to drill some silver from the two people in the Changju courtyard.

Cai Yuran's dowry was brought in one by one, although I didn't know what was inside, but the amount was there, and the news soon spread in the courtyard, saying that the dowry was real, and Wu Rouxiang was stunned for a while when she heard it.

She didn't count it herself, but she also had to tell Lu Shi, Lu Shi listened to a stomach full of anger, and the next day when Cai Yuran came to give her tea with a spring breeze on her face, she couldn't hold back, Zheng Guogong glanced at her, she had to drink this cup of tea if she didn't want to.

Because of Zheng Guogong's presence, the first level was passed so easily, seeing that Cai Qiran seemed to have a sense of loss when he punched the cotton, Zheng Qijun reached out and took her cloak, so that Cai Qiran's dowry maid Qingyue fell into the air, and said with a smile: "What? Want to fight her? ”

"Phew." Cai said angrily.

Zheng Qijun said in her ear, "Are you still uncomfortable?" Put it in advance, can you make up for it? ”

Qingyue avoided it early, Cai Qiran blushed like a peach, slapped Zheng Qijun, and said, "Do you want me to be a joke?" I have to meet the people in the courtyard first. ”

Zheng Qijun didn't think so, but since Cai Qiran said so, he didn't disobey it, and said: "My own people have a body deed, and Mother Wang said that some people were stuffed in there, and they were driven out, or they were hung up, and it was up to you." ”
