Chapter 357: Dowry

Zhangzhu remembered that the last time she and Yuanzhen left Yanzhou, the Xiu family wanted to choose Song Jinfei as their son-in-law, and it had been more than half a year, and I didn't know if there was a drama. She hesitated for a moment and finally asked.

"And what about your wine, when can I drink it?"

Song Jinfei saw that Zhangzhu cared about his family affairs, and he was also very helpful, and said with a smile: "It's late, I got married to the girl of the Xiu family in July this year, it is the fourth girl of the Xiu family, you should have an impression." ”

Zhangzhu only remembered that the girl from the Xiu family was a girl, but she really couldn't remember what this woman looked like. But Song Jinfei is really powerful, he married the daughter of the Xiu family. The Xiu family is also very open-minded, abandoning those inherent concepts and choosing Song Jinfei.

Song Jinfei said again: "Originally, I planned to let her go back to Beijing with me to see the prosperity here, but it was not a coincidence, she was suddenly found to be pregnant in the half month before I left, so I had to let her rest at home." I'll refer you to you in the future. ”

Song Jinfei has married a wife, and is about to become a father, this is a great joy, Zhangzhu hurriedly congratulated him, Song Jinfei said: "You also speed up a little, maybe the two families can become children in the future." "It is impossible for him and Zhangzhu in this life, so I hope that their children can achieve positive results.

Zhangzhu just smiled, it was too early to say this, after all, she hadn't married herself off yet.

After Song Jinfei came to see the palm beads, he went to see Chu Yuanzhen again.

Chu Yuanzhen was not surprised when he saw Song Jinfei, he said: "What evaluation did you get when you came to report on your work this time?" ”

Song Jinfei said diligently: "I didn't live up to the expectations of the second son, and I got a good one." This is a good affirmation, and Chu Yuanzhen was happy for him when he heard it: "Liang is already very good, when will you go back to Yanzhou?" ”

Song Jinfei said: "What's the matter, you have to drink your favorite wine." Second son, I thought you wouldn't really marry her, but I didn't expect you to really come this far, it's really emotional. ”

Chu Yuanzhen seemed a little displeased: "I've always been serious, why don't you believe it?" ”

How can Song Jinfei say that he is not optimistic. Later, the two talked about the recent situation, Chu Yuanzhen told him about the Wuyi rebellion, and Song Jinfei said: "These Wuyi people have been making trouble for several years, and the Jin people have stopped and they still don't stop." ”

"Not long ago, I heard that the prince wanted you to deal with those people, are you willing to go?" Chu Yuanzhen seriously consulted Song Jinfei's opinion.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really plans to do so?"

"If you don't want to, you can send someone else, and it's not that there are no people available." Chu Yuanzhen said this in order to dispel Song Jinfei's scruples.

Song Jinfei said: "It's also a rare opportunity, right?" ”

"It's okay, but it's more of a test, you have to think about it and make your own decisions." Song Jinfei is no longer loyal to him and does things for him, so Chu Yuanzhen gives him advice more from the perspective of a friend.

Song Jinfei carefully considered it, and he didn't make a decision immediately.

Seeing that the New Year is about to be celebrated, on the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, the palm beads received the festival gift from the palace, looking at the things piled up on the table as high as a hill, she looked at everything carefully, there are gold and silver jewelry, and there are rouge gouache. According to the person who came to give the gift, it was selected by the princess herself.

After looking at the palm beads, he ordered someone to pick them up. Then she went to her grandmother's place, and Mrs. Du was talking to Grandma Meng, and she was happy to see her granddaughter coming.

"It's cold today, why don't my obedient clothes be thicker?"

Zhangzhu hurriedly said to the old lady: "Grandma, your hand is extremely warm when you touch me, and it is not cold at all." ”

Mrs. Du really touched it, and it was indeed extremely warm. She smiled: "In the end, young people have good physique. ”

Grandma Meng and Zhangzhu said, "We are discussing the matter of inviting New Year's wine in the first few days. I have received a letter saying that my parents-in-law are coming to Beijing, but I don't know when they will arrive. The third aunt also said that they were coming. ”

Mrs. Du looked at her granddaughter and said, "Anyway, the wedding date is approaching, no matter what, we have to catch up with the big day." The two uncles should also have something to say. ”

Then talking about matters related to Zhangzhu's marriage, Zhangzhu was a little embarrassed. Fortunately, Yunzhao's daughter-in-law Li came over and took Zhangzhu's hand and asked her to go over to see an embroidered look to relieve Zhangzhu.

Talking about her granddaughter's family affairs, Mrs. Du had an inexhaustible heart, and she confessed to her eldest granddaughter-in-law: "I am such a granddaughter, I must be lively, and I must be good in the capital to not be looked down upon." By the way, let the snobs in the palace see that Zhu'er also has a mother's family, and our Du family is not such a good family to bully. ”

Grandma Meng is very good at figuring out people's hearts, and she is very good at pleasing the old lady, so she easily held the dowry list and let the old lady see, and the old lady's eyes were not very good, so she said to her: "You read it to me." ”

Grandma Meng read it out line by line, and Mrs. Du couldn't help but sigh when she heard it: "When her mother got married, the dowry was more than twice as much as this. ”

Grandma Meng wanted to say that marrying a granddaughter could be compared with marrying a girl, but Mrs. Du said: "She doesn't want a shop, and she doesn't want a field, I think it's better to convert it into silver, and adding another two hundred taels of silver looks a little better." ”

"Old lady, as soon as you open your mouth, it will be two hundred taels, but you don't have so much money in your hands......" Grandma Meng was in trouble.

"Don't you have any money...... Mrs. Du originally wanted to say that she would let the two uncles share a little, but she was afraid that the two daughters-in-law would be unhappy behind their backs, and in the end, the sons would be angry. The two uncles added more or less their hearts, and she didn't want to force it, so the old lady thought for a while and said, "I also saved some private money, so let's use this one." ”

Grandma Meng heard that the old lady was really generous: "In this way, the dowry list is almost the same." ”

"It's still a long way off, her two uncles can't help but express it, and her brothers also have to add boxes." Mrs. Du was afraid that Zhangzhu would be wronged. She did everything she could to give her granddaughter the best.

Turning around, Grandma Meng and Zhangzhu talked about the dowry, and she said sincerely: "The old lady is really concerned, and you will have to honor her well in the future." I don't think even my own granddaughter is so interested in her. ”

The old man naturally knew that the Du family had given her warmth, and she had always felt it, so on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, she kowtowed to the old lady three times.

The old lady pulled her up and said with a smile: "This year is the last year you have spent in the Du family." As she spoke, she gave Zhang Zhu an embroidered purse, which contained four pairs of gold bills, which were her New Year's money.
