Chapter 50: Greeting Relatives
Lin Zhen sighed quietly, he didn't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt were not at home.
Fortunately, there are not many concubines in Lin Shaohai's side room, otherwise it would be more than enough to spend an extra thousand taels of silver every month.
First of all, the old lady's natural food, clothing, and clothing are all good, and then there is Lin Shaohai, the second room is Zhou Mei, and after that, there are several children.
However, in addition to Lin Xuan, the two daughters and one son born to other aunts and concubines are still young, Lin Shaohai has always looked down on them, and Lin Zhen's family will save them.
Lin Zhen has only been in charge for half a month, and he actually cleared the doorway in the house, and Lin Zhen suddenly loosened his face, "This family is not good." ”
Not only is it not easy to be, but there are so many domestic servants in the Chengguo Mansion, plus some expenses inside and out, there must be people who are working hard under this scenery.
"You said that your mother doesn't know, but I'm afraid of your father's ......" Lin Zhen said the scruples in his heart, this Chengguo Mansion is such a big mansion, so much dowry is really stingy.
"Because of my brother's business, my father has been walking on thin ice for a while, if the Chengguo Mansion still doesn't know how to restrain and be a low-key person, Your Majesty is not a forbearant person......" Lin Hao's words became heavier and heavier, and he knocked on Lin Zhen one by one.
Lin Zhen didn't think about it for a moment, and then made up his mind, "Since the dowry has been prepared, there is no need to mention it again, and ask Steward Zhang to prepare another five hundred taels of silver, so as not to lose the dignity of the Chengguo Mansion." ”
Lin Hao's method was expected by Lin Hao, but what was the use of these five hundred taels of silver?
Although the Wei Mansion is not big, Wang Jinrong wants to be like a fish in water when she enters the mansion, and she is completely dotted up and down, so she is not looked down upon by her in-laws, where is the five hundred taels of silver enough to spend?
What's more, if she wants to worry about her husband's future, another 5,000 taels is not enough.
Wang Jinrong, Wang Jinrong, in your previous life, you calculated against me, and in this life, you will slowly enjoy the bitter fruits of marrying Wei Tingxuan.
Lin Hao personally laid out the bureau, and the pit in the Wei Mansion had been dug for Wang Jinrong, just waiting for her to jump in with dignity tomorrow......
Early the next morning, a maid entered the inner room and said, "Girl, my cousin is waiting outside the door before dawn to see the girl, saying that she can leave the house with peace of mind." ”
Lin Hao pursed her lips and smiled, her eyebrows swept lightly, "Let her go back and prepare first, the sedan chair of the Wei Mansion may come when it comes!" ”
The maid took the order and left.
"Is the girl really missing?"
Ming Huan had long known that Lin Zhen was deliberately alienating Wang Jinrong, and from what happened last time, no matter how smart Ming Huan was, she also saw the clues.
"Why not? When the people from the Wei Mansion come, I will naturally be able to see them. ”
Lin Zhen took out the Diancui phoenix step shake from the treasure box that the queen mother had rewarded at the last palace banquet and handed it to Ming Huan, "Put it on." ”
This is quite valuable, the girl didn't even take it out to enjoy the play on weekdays, today it was actually a heart, Ming Huan held it with both hands, and cautiously and carefully for Lin Zhen's hairpin, this hairpin is given by the Queen Mother herself, this Shanggong Bureau is naturally different from the market, all from the hands of skilled craftsmen.
This is still in the inner room, and it can't hide its own brilliance, Lin Hao looks at it like this, and his eyebrows and eyes are also a little fierce against the backdrop of this luxurious step.
"It's already time, why haven't you heard the sound of firecrackers in the house?" After the cleaning was completed, Lin Hao wondered, although she had not gone to the side hall yet, but it was better to welcome her sooner rather than later!
After a while, the people of the Wei Mansion were still nowhere to be seen, and a sneer appeared at the corner of Lin Zhen's mouth, on this wedding day, the Wei Mansion actually put up the score first.
It seems that Wei Tingxuan's attitude towards Wang Jinrong is already delicate, I think it is because he has been instigated by the Wei Wang family a lot during this time, so the Wei Wang family is a shrewd woman, how can he not make some stumbling blocks in secret today?
It just so happened that Wei Tingxuan was unhappy in his heart at this time, and he rushed to the Chengguo Mansion to touch the ashes.
Lin Hao endured a trace of resentment, if Wang Jinrong lost Wei Tingxuan's favor before she passed the door, how would she gain a foothold in the Wei Mansion in the future?
Wang Jinrong hadn't left the house at this time, she had already given the gift, and she really had a deep affection for her "sister".
"Isn't it? The time has come, slave maid go and see? Ming Huan is also curious, the first time to see her husband who is not in such a hurry as the bride.
"If someone arrives, you come back and forth." Lin Hao said indifferently, no matter how much the Wei Mansion delays, people still have to marry.
Wang Jinrong is only afraid that she is more anxious than anyone else at the moment, and before she has passed the door, she was so slacked by her husband's family that she even missed the time to welcome her relatives.
Although the face of the Chengguo Mansion is not good, it will never theorize with the Wei Mansion because of a cousin, this is a tacit marriage, and it will be over if it is sent away.
What's more, it is Wang Jinrong's husband's family who is so rude, I am afraid that in the future, the in-laws who treat this cousin in the Chengguo Mansion will be even more respectful.
It is not advisable to come and go too closely.
It was close to noon when I heard the crackling of firecrackers in the Chengguo Mansion.
Lin Zhen raised her eyebrows and smiled, the score of this Wei Mansion is also enough, although it is delayed for a while, it still has to come.
Ming Huan happened to come back to tell him, saying that the groom official of the Wei Mansion was here, but from a distance, there was no joy at all.
Lin Zhen is not surprised, he married Miss Cousin of the Chengguo Mansion, not Miss Yan, this is a world of difference.
What is the benefit of marrying Wang Jinrong?
It's really shooting yourself in the foot.
Even if he really had some pity for Wang Jinrong, but during this period of time, he couldn't withstand the hints of the Wei family's housewife and the Wei Wang family, and Wei Tingxuan's mind was afraid that he would slack off so much.
"Let's go, let's go and see this belated groom?"
Lin Zhen has always been a good show, in her previous life, she was obsessed with the wrong payment, and she was looking forward to marrying Wei Tingxuan, but before the wedding day, Wei Tingxuan personally led the guards of Dali Temple to break into the Chengguo Mansion.
At that moment, Wei Tingxuan was like a demon crawling out of hell, finally revealing a hideous face, and his disgust for her was no longer hidden.
Lin Zhen was completely devastated, and the whole person was like a walking corpse, and his mind was lost.
I only remember that my brother had already flown over to block the fists falling from those guards for her, and at that moment, helplessness and hatred completely surrounded her!
And Wei Tingxuan watched coldly from beginning to end, with a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, as well as a deeply hidden greed.
Scold.
His life and death were never in his eyes at all.
The past has passed, how can Lin Zhen forget the humiliation and torture she suffered in her previous life, she wants Wei Tingxuan and Wang Jinrong to repay it a hundredfold, or even a thousandfold!
She has to let the people who hurt her reap the consequences of their own pain, so that they can be afraid of her, and no one will dare to harm her again!
