Article 1044
"I have no way to understand such pomp, and now I am going to get married in two days, only to remember that the silver is not enough, and I ran to my grandfather to make trouble, since my grandfather has said that he will give five thousand taels of silver, this is a congratulatory gift for our three rooms, as for the shop, if you don't like it, just give up."
When the second old lady heard this, she hurriedly said: "This is not good, that shop is worth 10,000 taels of silver if it is sold, how can it be reversed?" ”
"What's wrong with going back on your word? You two rooms do not do a lot of things that go back on your word, but don't do anything good in front of me, I'm adding a thousand taels of silver, as the so-called six or six Shun, for the sake of the face of your relatives, I will give you some face, but if you don't want it, you don't know how to lift, then we don't have a point, you can take it, you can't take it! ”
Qingyi's words fell mercilessly on the faces of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and Gu Tingzhen was depressed and didn't say a word from beginning to end, watching from the side like a spectator, and finally the second old lady also knew that the result was very good, so she nodded in agreement at the corner of her mouth, and didn't say anything else.
Qingyi asked Mama Shui to give 6,000 taels of silver tickets to the second room, and she was going to drive the second room out completely, but this amount of silver is definitely not enough, so as not to say that she and her grandfather did not give gift money, lost the number of courtesies, and made the neighbors laugh.
The second old lady also knew that this was Qingyi's best concession, so she took the silver and left, but she was still worried, Mrs. Lei Song said: "Mother, this Qingyi is too stingy, and the family has a lot of money to fool us with this bit of silver, isn't it too bullying." ”
Gu Tingzhen also followed: "Grandmother, why are the three rooms of my mother so unsympathetic, how can I handle the marriage of my brother in front of me, why don't we take advantage of Qingyi's departure to find the old master, I just looked at the old family master and had a little meaning to give silver, but it was destroyed by Qingyi, if we avoided Qingyi, it would be better, grandmother, if we didn't give up in the second room, then everything today should be ours, we are the masters of the Gu Mansion, why do we have to keep our voices down now?" ”
The second old lady whispered, "Shut up! What do you know, one of you is a child, and the other is a woman, why can't you see it clearly, with Qingyi's temper, it is already the limit to be able to give these silvers, if we are taking a step forward, I'm afraid we won't have a penny of silver. ”
Mrs. Lei Song was still a little unconvinced, "Mother, how can you say that?" After all, Chengjing's marriage has been promised a lot by our family, and we want to live in Xiangruixuan, but we don't live in it, and we want to give the bride's tea ceremony to save face, but we don't take anything? Qingyi guards such a big gold shop, even if we give us a few sets of gem heads that can be put on the table, what can we do? It's not that it's just stingy. ”
Gu Tingzhen thought of Qingyi's glory, and then looked at her unsatisfactory like a down-and-out pheasant, and said with great disgust: "What my grandmother said is reasonable, our family's dowry has used all the best things before, and now my sister-in-law wants to enter our house to take out what kind of hand objects?" Grandmother knows best that this water conservancy yamen is not an ordinary yamen, it is a fat shortage, this sister-in-law is also a favored at home, or the ordinary mother-in-law would have already married the concubine to someone as a concubine, or married to a small family, although our family is separated, but it is by no means a small family, and the rich family of the grandfather's family is placed there, so you still think about the future sister-in-law entering the door, what do you give to the past to meet the past. ”
Mrs. Lei Song said: "What Niang Tingzhen said is reasonable, what should I do now?" If it doesn't work, then cheekily beg the old master to give us a few good faces, or how can we do this? Even if we go to our grandfather's house, we can't solve the fire now. ”
The second old lady fell into deep thought, the current situation is a scene that I never thought of meeting before, the new granddaughter-in-law entering the door is of great help to the second room, I heard that in front of his father is also a child who can speak, can form such a marriage, it is helpful for the entire second room, right should work hard!
Mama Ruo, who was following behind, looked disdainful, listening to the conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Mama Ruo almost vomited nauseously, how much the emotional master of this world gives is less, but it is good that they don't pull out a dime?
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and Gu Tingzhen went out soon, and if Mama told Qingyi and the old master about the matter, Qingyi smiled and said, "Grandpa, your old man can understand it now, right?" People's greed and desire are endless, no matter how much we give, it is not much, but if it is six thousand taels of silver, if it is given to an ordinary small family, thousands of daughters-in-law can be married, even ordinary families are enough, even the dowry and dowry are counted, now we give so much, they still feel that it is less, I think in the future, we should hurry up and drive this family out, otherwise I think the ingredients of peace are still too little. ”
Gu Taisheng agreed with Qingyi's statement, and he also figured it out early, as long as Qingyi is good, Gu Taisheng can not care so much, but now that he has made up his mind, he can't be appeased, and he doesn't know if the eldest daughter who married back from the second room this time is a good one.
Gu Taisheng and Qingyi inquired about finding someone, Qingyi said: "I don't know very well if it's too specific, I just know that it is the eldest daughter, and her aunt gave birth to a son, who has been promoted to a concubine, but she is a very scheming person, let's be careful, it is said that this woman has a few times, can bring back all her man's dowry, and can also fight for a dowry that is not much different from her daughter-in-law, which means that this woman must not be in peace, maybe the result is not necessarily." ”
Gu Taisheng stroked his beard and said: "No matter what, it is impossible for them to destroy it, let them go, they don't have to live together and don't have to interact much." ”
Qingyi looked in the direction of the second room and said, "I hope so!" ”
"Crackling, crackling, crackling, crackling......" With the sound of firecrackers, the bride carried by the eight sedan chairs at the gate of the second room has come to the door.
Qingyi was also watching the lively team at this time, Gu Chengjing was really one of the four joys in his life, and his bright red wedding robe made Gu Chengjing's face extremely festive, and he was very happy compared to his usual shrewd state.
Although the character of these two rooms is average, the only thing that can be related to Gu Fu is that the appearance of these rooms is not okay, and he is also considerate to the bride when he worships heaven and earth, and it seems that he likes this bride very much.
And the second old lady Zhang in the second room is also jubilant today, wearing a long gown with crimson happy characters, with a dark skirt, although her face has the marks left by the years, but people are in good spirits when they are happy, these are not important.
In order to save her face, the second old lady also brought a set of pomegranate flowers at the bottom of the box with a ruby head, and a large red and bright silk flower on her head, which looked luxurious and gorgeous, and a little cheesy, but it was a little bit out of line with the style.
Qingyi laughed in the crowd and looked at the second old lady dressed like a matchmaker, which was really a bit disrespectful to the old.
This set of head noodles is more suitable for young people to wear when they are newly married, meaning more children and more blessings, it is obvious that the second old lady is a little more public, and the big silk flower makes Qingyi think that as long as the second old lady makes a mole or something on her face, it is a full matchmaker.
But this time they are very busy, and most people don't pay attention to it, and the people who send their relatives just see the wealth in this house, and the others don't pay much attention to it.
Indeed, in order to welcome the bride, the second room has moved a lot, the yard has been renovated, and the largest one in addition to the main courtyard has been given to the newlyweds to live, this courtyard occupies one-third of the second room, and the people who came to send off their relatives feel that this courtyard is good, and they can't find anything wrong.
The furniture in the yard is new, although it is not too expensive wood, but it is also good for those who send relatives in the clan, and no one else looks at whether it is a fake or real, in short, it is very elegant.
Mrs. Lei Song and Gu Minglei are also wearing new clothes today, that is, Gu Tingzhen has worn the new clothes left behind during the New Year, and the entire second room has a new look because of the arrival of the bride, and the pattern of the second room has undergone new changes because of the arrival of the bride.
There are a lot of people who come to see off their relatives, and the banquet outside occupies twenty or thirty tables, which is enough to see that although this bride is a concubine, she still has a lot of face at home.
Qingyi remembered that Jin Yu came over to report the news the night before: "Master, according to the news, the bride's name is Yao Liyan, and her father Yao Bing is from a concubine in a big family in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and her aunt has died a long time ago, and she was raised by other houses, and she has made a greater contribution to her family after becoming an official, so she has attracted the attention of the Yao family of her family,"
"And although this Yao Liyan's mother is a concubine, she is a distant niece of the Yao family's own family, and her mother is in charge.
"Besides, this concubine itself is also very powerful, she fascinated Lord Yao, gave birth to the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter one step first, and now gave birth to a son to inherit the incense, and of course became a concubine, this Yao Liyan is not too outstanding in the family, but she has not been caught with any tricks, it is said that it is her own idea to find a merchant to marry."
Qingyi raised her eyebrows and asked, "Oh? It was her own idea, and what was it for? Ordinary people don't want to find a prestigious family to marry, and girls are rarely willing to marry into merchants, this person is strange. ”
Jin Yu replied: "Master, it is said that this Yao Liyan's mother-in-law really wants to marry her to the son of Lord Yao as a concubine, but she did not agree, but cried with Lord Yao, and finally threatened to marry a merchant, eat and drink for a lifetime, and have plenty of food and clothing for a lifetime, wear gold and silver, this Yao Liyan said that she herself is a concubine of a small official, she doesn't need to climb high branches, she just wants to find a low-married person to spend this life with, with the support of her family, she can stand in her husband's house, and she can live a good life, why not?" ”
Qingyi said with a smile: "This girl is a little interesting, but it is not easy to see through the world like this, even if she marries into a higher official's family as a concubine, she is either married to a concubine, or she is a concubine for her son-in-law, how can she marry a merchant to be comfortable, just look at the attitude of the second room towards her, and she is still a powerful person, this dowry is a lot." ”
Jin Yu said: "This Yao Liyan's dowry is not inferior to that of the concubine, that is, it is just one or two thousand taels of silver, which is also strange for the concubine who only gives a few hundred taels of silver to marry hastily, and now the whole Jiangsu and Zhejiang are talking about this eldest daughter, and there are also many people who scold Mrs. Yao, and they give a lot more dowry to the children of the concubine." ”
Qingyi smiled and said: "This is really a thing, with such a good lesson from the past, we must not follow suit in the future, but there are still a few who should stand out in the end, there will not be so many such people, I just hope that we will not use any brains in the future." ”
But this is Qingyi's own thoughts, and that Yao Liyan didn't think about it at all, she thought about it, and she wanted a lot, and she had more ambitions.
At this time, the bride was wearing a red hijab, and she could only see a little place in front of her, and she also knew that there were many people in the house, but she didn't know which one was Qingyi.
Yao Liyan is still very curious about Qingyi, and she doesn't understand how a person who is several years younger than herself can support a huge Gu family, and when she was in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, she heard her father say that the Gu family in Suzhou and Hangzhou is a very powerful family, although there are many branches, but more of it is the huge wealth of the Gu Mansion.
Although the Zhou family is the name of the richest man, it is still slightly inferior to the Gu family, and at least the business is not as extensive as the Gu family.
The rise of the Zhou family is just because of the loss of his beloved wife by the old head of the Gu family, and it is not difficult to rise.
Yao Liyan also thinks that she has the ability to become the benefactor of the Gu family, and she can also be the master of the house in the future, which is also the reason why she chose the Gu Mansion in the end.
It's just that Yao Liyan doesn't know now, and she may not have realized those little ideas, because it is very simple that Qingyi ran out to fill half of the garlic?
Yao Liyan thinks that although the Gu family has no heirs in the third room and only one daughter, it is still a grandson who inherited the family business, which is not justified, and this matter has also been discussed with her father, but under the temptation of her strong interests, her father also agreed to help him make decisions when the time comes.
is saying that the second room is the only concubine, and there is only this one son, Yao Liyan saw the handsome Gu Chengjing when she was in Jiangsu and Zhejiang earlier, and she was still very happy in her heart.
Although Gu Chengjing has such a maid in the room, it is still good, his father was born when Gu Chengjing was his age, and there are many aunts and rooms, she Yao Liyan will not care about these little things, what is a room, it is not in her own hands.
Yao Liyan's eldest maid Luzhi looked at the hour and saw that it was still early, and her uncle had to wait for a while before she could come over, so she quietly said to her master: "Miss, the slave is still early when she looks at the hour, do you want to use some snacks?" ”
Yao Liyan's thoughts were interrupted by the words of the eldest girl, and she remembered that many sisters-in-law in the house were there now, and this was the object she wanted to befriend in the future.
Because he was covered with a hijab, he waved his hand and said: "It's okay, I'm not hungry, it's important to greet your sisters-in-law first, don't be polite, Liyan is not very convenient to greet you at this time, please just take care of yourself, and get to know your sisters-in-law again tomorrow." ”
Qingyi looked at Danyi Danping, and Tingmei in the seventh room, everyone felt that this Yao Liyan was not simple, the meaning of this wedding was procrastinating and cumbersome, and she was not allowed to eat for a day, so she was afraid of being embarrassed by things like going to the toilet, but this person is also a character who can bear it so much, and he is still worried about the sisters-in-law instead of himself on this occasion, so several people feel that it is not simple.
