Chapter 100: The Ming Family's Fine "Traditions"
Mrs. Ming was right to think about it, and without saying a word, she called out Mingyue, who was hiding the cat in her house, "I heard San Lang say that you took them to do business in the county seat?" What kind of business do you do? ”
"That's a lot." Mingyue recalled, "I bought and sold it, processed meat, bought raw sunflower seeds and came back to process them, and then raised the price and wholesaled them to the vendors." In short, I will do whatever I make money. ”
Mrs. Ming listened to it and found that there seemed to be nothing that could not be done, so she no longer pursued the details, she pointed to the dowry sent by Yu Jiayan to the official media, "Jiayan This child is a heart, it is estimated that in addition to building a house and setting up a banquet, he took all the money to prepare a dowry for our family." ”
Mingyue looked indifferent, "He will take it for you, anyway, when I get married, I will soon be able to earn him more silver money back." ”
Mrs. Ming glanced at her, "You don't come!" Looking at me I don't know you? Even if you get married, can you still let the money go into Jiayan's hands? ”
Mingyue looked innocent, "Isn't our family's money all in your hands?" Look at my grandfather, he never said that he would take care of the money himself. And my uncle, my father, my third uncle, my eldest brother and second brother, do you think which of our old men keeps the money box in his own hands? ”
Mrs. Ming was speechless, and Zhou smiled backwards, Xie and Tao, you look at me, I look at you, no one dared to speak, for fear of being angered by her mother-in-law.
Zheng Caixia and Huang Xiaoying didn't dare to say anything - they are different from Mingyue, the baby granddaughter, they are granddaughters-in-law, and the mother-in-law on the top two floors are in charge, and they will be beaten to death if they are too arrogant.
Mingyue was not afraid of death to hug Mrs. Ming's arm, "Milk, you are my own grandmother, you have to face me, otherwise I won't be with you in the future." ”
Mrs. Ming glanced at her with disgust, "I'm not worried about you yet!" ”
Mingyue grinned, "Milk, don't worry, Jiayan will definitely not dislike me." ”
Mrs. Ming poked her forehead, "You just rely on people's good tempers." ”
The villain in Mingyue's heart silently rolled his eyes, Yu Jiayan has a good temper? He's a purebred black sesame stuffed bun, okay?
The reason why she was sure that Yu Jiayan would not dislike her was because she could see that Yu Jiayan only trusted and loved her wholeheartedly, rather than being mixed with precautions and trade-offs, and of course, she did not dislike and would settle for this.
If it weren't for that, Yu Jiayan would say that she would never agree to marry each other.
The grandparents and grandchildren laughed for a while, and Mrs. Ming began to command the three daughters-in-law and two granddaughters-in-law, "Let's stay for the food, and bring back the dowry money and jewelry to Mingyue, cloth... Cloth Mingyue, you make yourself and Jiayan a few new clothes, a few pairs of shoes and socks. ”
Mingyue nodded.
Having participated in so many weddings in ancient times, Mingyue already knew that this was a convention, she had no intention of being a maverick, since her cousin and sister-in-law could do it, then she could naturally do it too.
***
On the eighteenth day of the lunar month, a good day for Mingyue and Yu Jiayan, early in the morning, Mrs. Ming asked people to put Mingyue's dowry in the first courtyard of the Ming family's new house.
Mingyue's dowry is a lot, of course, this amount is not reflected in the quantity.
Because the Ming family made a fortune and Mingyue made great contributions, Old Man Ming and Mrs. Ming decided to give Mingyue more accompaniment.
Although the old couple believed that their children and grandchildren were reasonable and good children, for this matter, Mrs. Ming still convened the whole family to hold a family meeting.
The theme of the family meeting is to state what an important role Mingyue has played in the process of the Ming family living such a good life now, and Mrs. Ming did not exaggerate at all, but just slowly and logically explained what Mingyue has done for the family over the years in chronological order.
The Ming family almost immediately understood the intention of Mrs. Ming and Mrs. Ming to convene their meeting, and Mingdi, as the eldest son, was the first to speak, "Mingyue is indeed a great hero of our family, her dowry, you and my father can just watch and give it, and we will not have any ideas about how much to give." ”
Mingtang also nodded in agreement, "That's it." If there is no Mingyue, our family will now have at most redeemed the twenty acres of land that was sold that year, and the dozens of acres of land that our family bought later, the big mansion newly built by our family, our family's workshop and grange, and the two second-entry houses with paved surfaces purchased by our family in the county seat, these are not all the credit of Mingyue. ”
He nodded as soon as he said a word, and Zhou directly followed his man's words and listed Mingyue's contributions, "You don't say much about our family's current good life as a slave and a landlord, if Mingyue hadn't made money with us, would we be willing to buy these old people back?" There are also a few of them, if it weren't for the fact that the family is getting richer day by day, where will we get the money for all the boys to go to school? ”
Da Lang and other juniors nodded one after another, and Liulang even showed off to everyone in a milky voice, "Big sister buys us something delicious." ”
Shichiro is not far behind, "There are also wooden horses, ice cars, and bamboo dragonflies. ”
Xiao Mingxue touched the delicate velvet flowers on her sideburns, "The eldest sister also bought me the latest style of velvet flowers in the county, as well as small silver bracelets and pendants." ”
"I have a silver collar too." Rokuro and Shichiro said in unison, and everyone in the family laughed out loud.
Mingcheng looked relieved - his daughter's efforts were not in vain, and his family members were all good.
Tao even wiped away her tears directly, she hugged her two sons, and silently thanked Mingyue for her wise decision to let her go to the county seat to see the doctor.
If her daughter didn't earn the money, and insisted that Mingcheng take her to the county seat to see a doctor, where would she have the chance to give birth to a pair of twin sons?
Without this pair of twin sons, where did she have the confidence to straighten her waist and say that she was not sorry for the ancestors of the Ming family? Didn't I'm sorry Mingcheng?
Old Man Ming was also very pleased.
Although this scene had long been expected by him, he really saw his children and grandchildren without any guilt for him and Mrs. Ming Although he prepared a dowry for Mingyue, Old Man Ming was still so relieved.
He put down the tea bowl in his hand, "Your mother and I plan to marry Mingyue two Zhuangzi, a house, and a thousand taels of silver." The house is the one we bought in the county, and Jiayan will study in the county in the future, and it is just right for them to live in the small couple. Zhuangzi, I want to accompany her with a mountain bag, a pond and a workshop, and another one with 200 acres of good land. ”
The Ming family was a little surprised by Old Man Ming's generosity, but Old Man Ming did not see negative emotions such as dissatisfaction on the faces of any of the Ming family.
You must know that the accompanying workshop is not just as simple as accompanying a few workshops, as soon as this workshop is sent, the Ming family basically has no possibility of interfering in the oil extraction business, soy products business and vermicelli business around the county.
Otherwise, they would have become intent on stealing business and fighting with Mingyue, which is not what should happen between families.
