As soon as the woman went out, she saw dozens of people, men and women, carrying a lot of things in their courtyard, and when they saw the woman come out, they stopped looking around and looked at the woman.

One of the people standing at the front of the crowd, about forty years old, was dressed in brocade. The man walked up to her and said, "Madam, may I ask if this is Miss Guiyuan's home?"

When the woman heard this, she suddenly had a bad premonition, came to find Gui Yuan? Could it be that Gui Yuan offended someone with Aunt Zhang, or did she mess up something and someone else came to her?

"This unconscious daughter-in-law, when she goes out, she dares to cause trouble, so that everyone comes to the door, I knew that I would let her stay at home, and it would be good to die at home"

The woman cursed, and the other people in the courtyard looked at each other, and then looked at each other and smiled, but there was an inexplicable meaning in the smile.

The woman cautiously asked, "This gentleman, dare to ask my son-in-law what happened to her, do you have to lose money?" ”

The brocade-clothed man smiled and said, "Madame is too worried, so Guiyuan didn't cause any trouble."

The woman sighed and patted her chest, but the next moment she felt that something was wrong and didn't cause trouble, so she had to lose money? This Gui Yuan is not only Ke Agui, but also a money-loser, and the woman is heartbroken. But he still stubbornly asked: "Dare to ask sir, how much money do we have to accompany you?"

"Losing money? Madame, you misunderstood, we are not here this time to ask for guilt, and secondly, not to lose money, on the contrary, we are here to send you money."

I heard that it was to send money, and there was such a good thing? The woman immediately smiled and said, "Come on, come on, the gentleman came into the house and said."

The man in brocade looked at the slightly simple room, then looked at the woman again, and said, "We won't go into the house, just talk about it here." I am the chief steward under my lord, and I came to inquire about the birthday of the lady on the order of the lord, and by the way, I also brought a dowry. “

Birthday? It's over, how do I know this girl's birthday, this girl was picked up by Ah Gui, and her birthday is estimated to be only known to God. The man in brocade saw her embarrassed, and said: "Oh, don't worry about the birthday first, my lord said that this family affair had better be settled as soon as possible, so I brought the matchmaker too, and let her tell you about the rest of the matter, I just came to see it on behalf of the master."

The woman thought it would be better if she didn't tighten it, and if she didn't do it, it would be fine.

The man in brocade turned around and looked at a woman with heavy makeup behind him, and the woman understood and immediately stepped forward, holding Ah Gui's daughter-in-law's arm and chattering.

"Auntie, you really gave birth to a good daughter, in the future, you will follow your daughter to enjoy the blessings."

The matchmaker looked at Ah Gui's wife and continued: "Auntie, this has to start from the beginning, your Gui Yuan was met by Master Zhang and his son in our town by chance, and then Master Zhang and his son fell in love with your girl at first sight, and as soon as he got home, he couldn't wait to let Master Zhang give you a dowry." Master Zhang loves his son the most, so he immediately arranged for a few of us to come to you to see if you have any opinions, if not, he decided on this family business. ”

As soon as the matchmaker's mouth opened, she couldn't stop.

"Auntie, let me tell you, Master Zhang is amazing, and our county magistrate was a classmate and friend back then, but later Master Zhang went into business. Mr. Zhang has a set of business, and now it is really a prosperous business and a lot of money. And I'll tell you another news, that Master Zhang is a son, and he hasn't married a wife yet, your daughter must be the main house when she marries, and she is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhang family. ”

The matchmaker became more and more energetic.

"Mr. Zhang is still atmospheric, he said that when we come over, bring the dowry, if your family has no opinion, it will immediately decide on these family affairs, if there is anything difficult, it doesn't matter, this dowry is a meeting gift, auntie, you come and see, there are really a lot of things, and the same is more exquisite than the same"

As she spoke, the matchmaker pulled Gui's wife over to see the dowry. Ah Gui's wife was actually a little stunned at this time, and she hadn't recovered from her previous words. Yuanzi, this girl is going to turn the hen into a phoenix? was taken by the son of a big family, and it was the main house, this will be great in the future, was I wrong before, this girl is not a mourning star, but a lucky star? Our family is also going to ascend to heaven with the chicken dog?

No, I'm not wrong, if I hadn't sent her out before, where would she have been so blessed, this time, if I entered a big family, I wouldn't have to worry about Bao'er's bride price all day long. And the matchmaker also said that even if there is any embarrassment, these dowry gifts should be regarded as meeting gifts, and it seems that no matter what, today is pie in the sky.

"This is the fine red silk, this is the pleasant goat, this is the ceremonial cake, this is the ......"

The matchmaker said happily, as if she was the one who accepted the dowry.

"Auntie, don't take care of it, you touch it, you look at how good the silk feels, how slippery"

As he spoke, he asked Gui's wife to touch the red silk. Ah Gui's wife has actually been dazzled, she has never seen so many good things in her life, and today she saw so many at once, but after a good time of addiction, she even seemed to see someone holding a live goose, okay, rich people are different, exquisite.

Ah Gui's wife gently stroked the red silk with her hand, gently, for fear that her farm work hand would break it and stain it. Although the matchmaker has already said that whether this matter is successful or not, these things are theirs, but she is still reluctant, she looks at the red silk, and feels like going back to when she got married.

When she got married, only the hijab was made of red silk, and she still remembers the feeling at that time, exactly the same as the one in her hand now, bare and slippery.

"Auntie, don't just look at this, come on, there's more later, let's take a look"

The matchmaker screamed, and Gui's wife came back to her senses, smiled at the matchmaker, and said, "Hmm"

The matchmaker just seemed to faintly see that the corners of Ah Gui's wife's eyes seemed to be moist, but it wasn't quite exact, what a strange woman, the matchmaker thought to herself. But the movements of his hands did not stop, and he continued to walk and watch with Ah Gui's wife.

She always remembered in her heart the entrustment of Master Zhang when she left, and Master Zhang said that if she could make this family affair together, he would give her fifty taels of silver as a reward. Fifty taels is enough for her to spend several years.

Sure enough, what the old man said was reasonable, Ma Wuye grass is not fat, and this time it must be successful. It's just that the girl is miserable, and she doesn't know that she is about to marry a fool.

After they had turned around, the chief steward came over and asked, "What does Madame think, is this dowry to Madame's liking?"

Ah Gui's wife didn't dare to slack off, so she quickly nodded and said, "It's agreeable, it's very agreeable."

"What do you think of this family business?"

The woman was a little embarrassed when she heard this, but she felt that this was a good family business, and if it could be done, it would be a phoenix climbing a high branch, but she couldn't make up her mind about this matter alone. Although the man in his family does everything by himself, it is still not okay if he doesn't say a word to him, after all, they have been husband and wife for more than ten years.

Before, sending Yuan only to the town was just a simple help, although he was angry but he could understand, but marrying someone was different, Yuanzi was picked up by him, he should have his own ideas. He, although he didn't say it, but after Yuanzi left, he had obviously been in the mountain for a long time, and he wanted to make more money so that Yuanzi could go home as soon as possible, so she really couldn't decide to marry her daughter.

Otherwise, it is not just a daughter who will be lost, but even the hearts of her husband and son may be lost, she is already a half-old, losing Ah Gui, Bao'er, what can she be nostalgic for in this world. What she has done has always been for this family, for her husband and son.

So she bowed slightly, and said to the chief steward with an apologetic face: "Mr. steward, I'm really embarrassed, although I think it's a great blessing for my son to be favored by your son-in-law, but I still have to discuss this matter with his father, to see what his father means, you can take this dowry back first, and when I discuss it with her father, we will make a special trip to the house to make amends."

The chief steward thought about it and felt that what he said made sense, after all, good things are grinding.

"Well, that makes sense, too. Then Madame, let's come back another day, and the dowry will be left here, just a little careful. Our family has no shortage of these things, and I hope I can hear good news next time I come."

The woman was very happy in her heart, this matchmaker didn't deceive people, Mr. Zhang's family was really wealthy, so many good things were sent away, but she still said: "This is not suitable, we can't ask for it"

"It's okay, just take it"

After saying that, he turned around and left, and the others followed behind the chief steward, and in a short time there was no one in the courtyard. The woman looked at the things that were all over the ground, and she did not know whether she was glad or not.

The woman suddenly smiled and shook her head, and said to herself, "This lady, hey, I don't know what to say."

With that, he turned around and went back into the house. It's just that this woman didn't have the heart to think about the New Year, she began to think about how to make Ah Gui agree to this family business, you must know that there will be no such shop in this village.

In the direction of the entrance of the village, a group of people were walking on the main road, and the villagers passing by couldn't help but take a few more glances at these people, because they were curious about what these fresh faces were doing in their little-known small village.

"How many of you come here"

Suddenly, a man at the head said something to the person behind him, and this man was the chief steward who had just left Ah Gui's house.

Several people behind him immediately approached the chief steward, and one of them said, "Chief steward, what do you command?"

"As soon as a few of you spread the news, you will say that Gui Yuan, the daughter of the Gui Shi family, is in love with the son of Master Zhang's family, and Master Zhang hopes that a lover will eventually become a family, and he has already sent someone to Gui Shi's house, and the Gui Shi family has accepted the dowry."

"The chief steward, isn't it just an ordinary family, they shouldn't refuse this great good thing. I think that woman is also very excited."

"Talkative, can't I see it? I'm afraid that I'm afraid of long nights and dreams, didn't you hear her say that she wanted to discuss with her husband? We release the news and let the raw rice be cooked into rice, then this piece will be ready. ”

"Understand the chief steward, we will take care of this matter"

"Well, go ahead, don't get in trouble"

"Yes"

"Matchmaker"

When the matchmaker heard the call for herself, she immediately ran over and said, "The chief steward commands you."

"I've done it this far, next time you have to settle her, otherwise you won't want your fifty taels"

"Well, don't worry, wrap it up on me"

"The New Year is a great event, it's better to be happy, isn't it?"

When the matchmaker heard this, she immediately echoed: "Don't worry, the chief steward will definitely let the son hold the beauty after the New Year."

"Very good, very good"

He flicked his sleeves and strode away.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew from afar, blowing up the dust from the feet of several people, and then soared straight into the sky.
