Chapter 6 Casual Dowry
"Just because you paint two pictures and want to make money, then those painters must all have a lot of money."
"Eh, mother, I'm your own child, why do you dismantle my platform everywhere, and you still don't trust me so much"
Shen Qingyue wanted to cry and looked at the Zhang family without tears, which other people's mothers didn't praise their daughters everywhere, how could they get to the Zhang family, her daughter couldn't do this, she didn't make it.
"Hey, what did you say about this child, how did my mother conceive you in October, and you dared to say that it was not my own, see if I don't kill you"
Zhang said that he was about to hit Shen Qingyue, but Shen Qingyue saw this and deftly dodged to the right side, and then ran back to the room with a smile holding the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Seeing her dodge, the "dead girl" scolded with a smile, but there was a deep sense of love in her eyes.
After dinner in the evening, Shen Qingyue soaked her feet well, got rid of the fatigue of her body, and then put herself in a big shape, lying on the bed with a big grin, imagining ancient costumes.
The method she thought of during the day was to draw a few antique clothing design drawings, and then take them to the Qinglou to sell for money, not afraid that they would not know the goods, after all, the clothes she wanted to draw were the most suitable for the Qinglou women to wear.
Where it should be exposed, it will be exposed, and where it should not be, it will be loomed and exposed.
Of course, she doesn't have a talent for designing costumes, but she just memorizes those costumes in costume dramas, and she studied painting for a few years when she was studying, so it's easy to draw a few clothes that can arouse people's lust.
She originally wanted to paint tonight, but unfortunately there was no oil lamp at home, so she had to give up and wait for tomorrow to paint, anyway, no matter how anxious she was, there was no need to rush at this time.
On the second day, the sky was blue and it was another beautiful day.
Shen Qingyue rarely stayed in bed, and slept until three o'clock in the morning, if it weren't for the Zhang family coming in and shouting a few times, she would still want to rely on it for a while.
She didn't mean to lie in bed, after thinking about the design of the antique clothes last night, she thought about the matter of leaving Wei Chu, and when she thought that his house was going to come to propose marriage after dawn, she was nervous and couldn't sleep, until Yin Shi had sleep.
"Yue, hurry up and clean yourself up, don't be sluggish" Seeing that she got up late, Zhang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, for fear that when the Wei family came to propose, Shen Qingyue would still be unkempt, and it would be embarrassing.
"Got it, mother" Shen Qingyue has always been very neat, in modern times, she has an average time of half an hour from getting up to going out, she is still unkempt before going out, and she is a standardized professional woman after going out.
When he first arrived, Li brought his son, as well as the matchmaker, and six gifts to the door.
When they arrived, Shen Qingyue happened to freshen up, and when she saw them coming, she immediately greeted them with a smile and ushered them into the hall, and then went to the kitchen to make three glasses of water, and handed them to Li with her own hands, "Aunt Li, drink tea"
Li Shi took the tea and smiled back, very satisfied with Shen Qingyue's performance.
She has been paying attention to Shen Qingyue since she entered the door, and seeing that she is so graceful and generous, the goodwill in her heart gradually increases, and it is very good that a girl born in a peasant household can do this.
After making tea, Shen Qingyue retreated to the side and sat down, and the rest of the matter was discussed by the three adults of the Zhang family.
"Yue'er, thank you for your hard work" As soon as Shen Qingyue took a seat, Wei Chuli looked at her with tenderness in his eyes and said in a low voice.
Looking for prestige, I saw him dressed in white, although he was the most ordinary material, but he was still lined with his personable and heroic spirit, Shen Qingyue thought that this was his temperament.
Shen Qingyue was still admiring Wei Chuli, and the matchmaker over there had already opened her mouth, "This tea has also been drunk, let's start talking about the topic of sister-in-law."
When Zhang heard this, he took it for a while, and then said seriously, "Matchmaker Liu, you have something to say"
Shen Qingyue, who looked funny like this, covered her mouth and snickered, her mother was arrogant.
"Then I'll get straight to the point, sister-in-law Zhang must also know the purpose of our visit today, what do you want for the dowry?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall turned their eyes to Zhang.
Li's hand was hidden in his sleeve and held it nervously, afraid that Zhang's request would be too much, if that was the case, she would be infamous for beating mandarin ducks with a stick, and she would never let Shen Qingyue enter the door of the Wei family.
Also nervous is Wei Chuli, whether his marriage with Shen Qingyue can be decided today depends on the Zhang family.
"Two roosters, two hens, a fish, a pound of meat, and that's it"
Under everyone's nervous waiting, Zhang thought for a long time before he opened his mouth leisurely, and the dowry request he said made everyone stunned, this request was too much... Too low, too casual, right?
"I know what you're thinking, in fact, if it's not for the fear of breaking the rules, I really don't want the dowry, you and I are both widowed at an early age, how hard and tiring it is for a woman to support a family, there is no woman in the village who understands better than the two of us, what about me, I just hope that Yue'er can be happy, so the meaning of the dowry means, and it is okay to marry an auspicious meaning"
Zhang's seemingly casual remarks made Li's eyes red, what Zhang said about how hard and tiring it is to support a family, no woman understands it better than the two of them.
In order to cultivate Wei Chuli, she has paid a hundred times more hard work over the years, not only to be busy with farm work in the fields, but also to take advantage of her spare time to make some female celebrities to sell for money.
Not to mention the broken eyes, the cervical spine is also broken, and she is in pain from frequent pain.
Fortunately, her efforts were not in vain, Wei Chuli not only excelled in her studies, but also was very filial and sensible.
People who sympathize with each other are the most likely to sympathize with each other, Zhang's words suddenly shortened the distance between her and Li, the two women talked very happily, and the marriage between Shen Qingyue and Wei Chuli was easily decided.
Because Wei Chuli was going to take the autumn exam, he had to work hard to read books for the rest of the time, so he set the marriage for the next year.
Shen Qingyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it just so happened that she could use this time to investigate Wei Chuli, if he was really worthy of his life, then she would depend on her life and death.
But if he is a scumbag who is inconsistent with the outside, then she is desperate and will regret this marriage.
