Text Chapter 138 Quietly ask about the dowry
Regarding Aunt Shen's words, Ding Yezi said bluntly without hesitation: "Auntie, Qinglian is still good, but Zishuang is not a worry-free maid, if she is really left in the East Courtyard, I am afraid that she will climb on my head one day." ”
Aunt Shen raised her eyebrows and said with a light smile: "It's just a maid, what big waves can you make?" I'm afraid what you said is serious. ”
Aunt Shen's words showed what she meant, it seems that the reason why Zishuang has so much courage to talk back to her is inseparable from Aunt Shen's connivance and orders!
Ding Page thought about it, and asked with a light smile: "Auntie, there is something I don't know whether to ask or not." ”
Aunt Shen smiled motherly: "If you have something to say, now that you have become a relative to Hao Ling, you can be regarded as my daughter-in-law." ”
Ding Yezi didn't like Aunt Shen's identity in her heart, but the facts were in front of her, she had to accept it, Aunt Shen was indeed Hao Ling's stepmother, and it was not too much to say that she was her daughter-in-law.
"Auntie, since those four maids were all sent to my yard by my aunt, I don't know if those four maids make any mistakes in the future, I will give them to my aunt to send them down? Or just dispose of it according to the rules of the East Courtyard? ”
Ding Yezi said with a light smile, looking like a good baby, as if he would listen to Aunt Shen's opinion on everything.
Aunt Shen frowned when she heard this, and asked in surprise, "The rules of the East Courtyard?" What does that mean? ”
Ding Yezi explained indifferently: "Auntie, since the family has family rules, now that I have become relatives with Hao Ling, the East Courtyard can be regarded as a small family of its own, so naturally we also need a family rule to restrain it." After all, it's no longer the same as it used to be. ”
Aunt Shen really didn't expect Ding Page to be so difficult to deal with, she even came up with the rules of a small family, if she promised her, the four maids would definitely have a hard time in the East Courtyard in the future, but if she didn't agree to her, what she said was reasonable, and she couldn't refute it.
Ding Yezi looked at Aunt Shen calmly, her expression seemed respectful, but in fact, only she understood the greatness in her heart.
Her principle of dealing with the world is also very simple, if people don't offend me, I won't offend people. If the four maids really do the maid's thing safely, then she, the young lady, will not deliberately embarrass them, and when they reach their age, they will be matched with children, which can be regarded as giving them a marriage and forming a small family to live a good life. But if anyone has two hearts, don't blame her for being ruthless.
Aunt Shen thought for a moment, thought about it, but really didn't come up with anything to refute Ding Page's words, so she only said: "This rule is naturally necessary, but those four maids are all trained by me personally, all of them are people who abide by their duties and know the rules, they know what they should do and what they shouldn't do, and they will definitely not act arbitrarily, you can rest assured of this." ”
Ding Yezi bowed his head and said: "I understand my aunt's intentions, but there is an old saying? The hearts of the people are separated from the belly, and the aunt treats the four maids well, but I don't know if they know the kindness of the aunt. I can't say that I thought it was in the East Courtyard, so I used my aunt's name to act arbitrarily and ignore the master, that's not good, I lost my aunt's face and didn't mention it, if it was spread outside, didn't it mean that Haofu was so weak that it was a big bully? ”
"That's unacceptable!" When Aunt Shen heard the words of the slave bully, she immediately showed extremely indignant emotions, "Page, I understand what you mean, since you want to decide the rules of the East Courtyard, then you can decide it yourself." But there is a sentence I have to put in front, although Hao Ling doesn't care about the affairs of the Eastern Courtyard, but you have to discuss everything with him, don't make your own decisions about everything, you know? ”
Hearing what he wanted to hear, Ding Yezi was in a very happy mood, nodded with Aunt Shen, and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I have written it down, and I won't deal with it randomly." ”
Seeing Ding Page's obedient appearance, Aunt Shen bowed her head lightly and glanced at Shen's mother. Mother Shen understood, hurriedly turned around and went back to the inner room, came out again when she was young, and handed a brocade box to Aunt Shen's hand.
Aunt Shen took the brocade box, then opened it, and took out two gold bracelets from it.
"My aunt didn't prepare anything good for you, these two bracelets can be regarded as a gift from my aunt to you, and you have to serve the eldest young master well in the future." Aunt Shen helped Ding Page bring the bracelet with her own hands, and said with a smile.
Ding Page quietly accepted the bracelet, and nodded politely to Aunt Shen, "Thank you, Auntie, I have memorized my words, and I will definitely serve the eldest young master well in the future, Auntie can rest assured." ”
"Well, you are a good boy, and Hao Ling is also a blessing for him to marry you. I used to see that your family was just a tofu seller, but I didn't expect that the dowry prepared for you by your father and mother was quite generous. Aunt Shen said with a smile.
Ding Yezi smiled, his expression was natural, and he replied very fluently: "My aunt doesn't know, my father died early, although he left a lot of dowry for my two sisters, but there is no boy in the family, if you let others know that there are many Zhuangzi in the family, it is inevitable that others will covet it." Therefore, the mother decided earlier that the family would not expose the money in the family, and only be poor, otherwise the orphans and widows would have to be bullied. ”
Aunt Shen saw that Ding Yezi's expression did not seem to be fake, and her answer was so natural and fluent, if those dowry Zhuangzi were really not her own, I am afraid that she would not be able to pretend to be so similar. After all, with her background, her scheming won't be so deep, right?
Aunt Shen nodded and smiled: "Your mother is smart, this idea is not bad, if the family has wealth and no man, it is indeed to be bullied." Fortunately, your mother prepared early, otherwise this little family business would have been taken away by others, and you wouldn't be able to get married now. ”
Ding Yezi sighed melancholy, wiped the tears that did not exist in the corners of his eyes, and sighed: "This is also a helpless move, if it wasn't for the early death of my father, why would my Ding family fall to the current situation?" ”
This is also said to be true, if Old Man Ding is still here, the Ding family will not be broken to this extent, and the Gao family may not withdraw from the family, and her fake Ding Page will still marry Gao Chentian's wife. Thinking of the two concubines of the Gao family, Ding Yezi couldn't help but feel sour.
At the beginning, Gao's mother saw that Gao Chentian was desperate for her, so she actually came up with a way to give Gao Chentian two concubines, so as to divert Gao Chentian's attention. If you give your son a concubine, you will take a concubine, and you don't want to see how your character is, but you are looking for the kind of person who has no quality.
