Chapter 440: The Concept of Hundred Miles of Fruit
Old lady Shen said that she was not wronged, and she was not wronged, so how could she not be wronged and not wronged?
The daughter of the general Zhuang family is a few dozen taels of silver, which is considered a huge amount of money, and the dowry of the daughter of the Zhuang family is only a few taels of silver, while the marriage of the daughter of a wealthy family is ten miles of red makeup, thousands of taels of dowry......
The old lady of the Shen family said that he would not be wronged by Shi Man, it depends on how the old lady Shen defines it in his heart.
If Mrs. Shen said that the Shen family is a small family, and dozens of taels of silver are used as a dowry, she will not be wronged by Shiman!
Shiman lowered his head, blushing and looking at his toes, full of shyness.
It's really embarrassing for the county lord to mention her dowry in front of so many people......
Although she is fifteen years old, the county magistrate has not yet come to the next appointment, so she is ready to pay a dowry.
Shi Man, who had a red face and a weak voice, looked at Baili Guo'er pleadingly, "County Lord, this county commander hasn't come yet?" Is it too early to mention the dowry at this time? ”
What a shame!
Shi Man's roots were red, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"Sister Shiman, this man should get married, the woman should get married, the county magistrate will come to hire in a few days, don't you have to prepare a dowry when the time comes? The county lord was worried that you wouldn't be bullied by some people, so he talked about your dowry in advance......" Baili Guo'er's face sank, and she looked at Shiman in a serious tone.
What's going on?
How could Shiman say that?
Isn't she doing it for the rest of her life?
Sooner or later, the Shen family will fall, and now that the Shen family still has some industries and some savings, they are extorting a sum of money, do you want to watch the Shen family's industry cheaper than others?
After a pause, Baili Guo'er looked at Shiman earnestly and continued: "Shiman! This county lord is all for your good, you have not only been wronged in the Shen family over the years, but also almost killed by someone, now is the time for the Shen family to make up for you, you can't be confused, and be fooled by the beautiful words on the lips of these people! ”
The meaning is referential, and the words of Baili Guoer are purely meant to be referential, and it also refers to Sang scolding Huai.
The Shen family was angry in their hearts, but their faces were low-eyed, and they didn't dare to make a sound.
What can they say? It was the county lord of Qingyang who said this, they had no power and no power, how could they compete with the county lord of Qingyang who was sealed by the imperial court?
I can only knock out my teeth and swallow it in my stomach, swallowing this breath raw......
"County Lord, after all, our Shen family is a small family, not as good as Chengenbo Mansion, in addition to Shiman, there are other girls in the boudoir in the family, if Shiman's dowry is too much, these other girls are only afraid that they will not ......be convinced."
The eldest lady of the Shen family rolled her eyes, and after thinking quickly in her heart, she looked at Baili Guo'er with a shy face and spoke.
There are several girls to be married in the Shen family, among them, there are concubines, and Mrs. Shen represents the Shen family's big house, so she naturally has her own careful thoughts......
Baili Guo'er smiled lightly, and looked at Mrs. Shen with deep meaning, "What Mrs. Shen means, the county lord understands!" ”
"Since ancient times, the family property has been passed on to the eldest son, and the eldest lady is unwilling to prepare too much dowry for a niece in the next room, this idea, the county lord can still figure it out, but what the county lord doesn't understand is that the Shen family's family property will be passed on to the big house in the future, or someone else?"
"After all, your Shen family's situation is a bit special? Which is more important, the son born by the original match, or the son born by the stepfamily, the eldest grandson and the eldest son? ”
“.......”
With the light words, the Shen family fell into deep thought.
The hands under the sleeves of Old Lady Shen's clothes were clenched with fists, and the teeth were itching with hatred in his heart.
The affairs of the Shen family, the county lord of Qingyang, an outsider, meddling in his affairs, why do he meddle so much? Whether the Shen family's property will be left to the eldest son or the eldest son in the future, isn't it up to him, the head of the family, to have the final say?
Baili Guo'er muttered softly, "Since ancient times, if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather, and the property of the Shen family will be mostly given to the old son in the future, after all, the old son has a bright future?" ”
Although it was muttering, the voice was not small, and everyone heard it clearly, and they all fell into deep thought.
"Fourth sister, this is the Shen family's housework, and it has nothing to do with our coming here today, we are going home with Sister Shiman, this good day has made the Shen family have contradictions, this is not a good ......"
Bai Tao'er looked at Baili Guo'er with a smile, glanced at Baili Guo'er, and signaled Baili Guo'er to stop in moderation, don't force the Shen family too hard.
The dog will jump over the wall when he is in a hurry, not to mention that this is a human?
If the Shen family is angry and takes risks, things will be self-defeating and contrary to their original intentions......
Stunned for a moment, Baili Guo'er nodded with a smile, looked at the old lady of the Shen family and hooked her lips: "Old lady Shen, about Shiman's dowry, please also ask Old Lady Shen to give this county lord an answer as soon as possible, this has said so much, this county lord is also a little tired, so I will go to the courtyard prepared by your Shen family for Shiman with Shi Man first." ”
While speaking, Baili Guoer stood up, served her closely, and immediately stepped forward to help her.
Shiman and Bai Tao'er also stood up closely, Shiman, as a member of the Shen family, curtsy to the old lady of the Shen family, and then accompanied Baili Guo'er to the backyard, and Bai Tao'er herself, as the eldest young lady of Chengenbo Mansion, is more noble than anyone in the Shen family, so naturally she does not need to salute.
Out of the hall of the Shen family, Baili Guoer and Shen Man went to the backyard of the Shen family, and a few people walked to a small pavilion and sat down.
"O Shiman! Did you see it, everyone in the Shen family is so faceful, you want to go home, but it turns out to be ......" The words behind Bai Li Guoer did not speak.
She is not Shiman, she can't put herself in Shiman's shoes, and she can't understand why Shiman must recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors?
Everyone in the Shen family, such a faceless and skinless family, is it really worth it?
Shiman lowered his head in shame and muttered, "I ......"
"Fourth sister, Sister Shiman and her mother are in the Shen family, it is reasonable to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors." Bai Tao'er shook her head at Baili Guo'er, and signaled Baili Guo'er not to worry about this matter.
The grace of birth and nurturing is greater than the sky, and as a daughter, she naturally wants to repay her biological mother, which she deeply feels.
Even though her mother-in-law is bent on her sister Bai Zhi'er, but her mother-in-law is her mother-in-law, and the family affection that blood is thicker than water cannot be changed, all she can do is not to drill the horns of the bull and not enter a dead end.
Sighing deeply, Baili Guoer said: "Sister-in-law is reasonable, but I don't understand, Shiman's mother gave birth to Shiman, why does this kindness have to be repaid in the Shen family?" Why can't you let Shi Man's mother leave the Shen family, and then Shi Man, who is a daughter, will support her mother for the elderly? ”
