Chapter 10: Gifts
Lin Junren was red-faced when he asked, and he couldn't say why.
However, Lin Fangshi explained, "I want to come to Xianggong, Xianggong is delayed on the road, right?" He turned around and lost his daughter, and he was also sad. ”
Scold!
Ye sneered, "So sad that I married my daughter to a dead ghost and exchanged it for sixty taels of silver?" ”
"And, it's not like that!"
Lin Junren was extremely embarrassed, he wanted to explain, but he really couldn't find an excuse, so he could only point to Lin Fang's and say, "I've been sick these days, and it's all ridiculous things that my mother-in-law is ignorant and has made trouble." The woman is ignorant, the woman is ignorant! ”
I despise this kind of man who pushes a woman when he has something!
Mama Zhao said, "This is unusual, isn't it Master Lin that you said it yourself, and the emperor can't control you to marry your daughter?" He also said that this Shuanghe Town is your land, whether it is a dragon or a tiger, you have to coil it, and you have to arrest us all in the prison and be whipped, and we will be distributed! ”
Lin Junren's face was red and white, white and red, and he wanted to tear her mouth apart.
The neighbors were relieved to hear this, and they were even more humane, "You still want to detain this maid and call it yourself." We persuaded you with those good words, but you didn't listen to them, and they said that we were accomplices. Now that you know that you are a maid of the palace, you still dare to detain people, I respect you as a man! ”
The neighbors burst into laughter.
Lin Junren was so ashamed that he wanted to get into it in an orderly manner.
Wang Xianzun was even more annoyed.
In front of the slaves of the Han Dynasty, saying such things, doesn't it make people feel that he, the county respecter, is incompetent and conniving at the lawlessness of his subordinates?
"Mama, this official will give you an explanation for this matter later. At this time, it is not early, please go to the county government to rest? ”
He has to greet people well before he can speak, right?
Lin Junren hurriedly agreed, "Yes, yes, yes!" I'm going to set up a table of wine and I'll send it to make amends. ”
But Mama Zhao didn't eat his dirty things, and only pointed to the beautiful girl, "I think, let's make this child's family affairs clear first." Otherwise, I'm afraid that when I go back to my mother, I won't be able to explain! ”
But what do you mean by that?
Lin Junren instantly thought, those sixty taels of silver!
It has taken a lot since it was sent, but now it is difficult to return.
Wang Xianzun said decisively, "Since it is a yin relative who has knotted, and the person has come back alive, naturally it can't be counted." ”
He looked at the Liu family on the side and said, "Within three days, return Miss Lin's Geng post, and the family affair will be invalidated!" ”
"Slow!"
The eldest man of the Liu family suddenly shouted, and stepped forward with a smile, "Don't worry, my lord, since you have spoken, this yin person should be invalidated." It's just that my family has passed the Geng post with the little lady of the Lin family, and it is finally fateful, so it is better to marry the little lady Lin from the little one? To say that the younger one is also innocent, and he has not yet married a wife. ”
That's a good idea!
Lin Junren's heart suddenly relented.
still marry his daughter, and he doesn't have to pay back the sixty taels of silver. And if you climb up to the rich relatives of the Liu family seriously, there will be a lot of benefits in the future, and others will have nothing to say.
It's a pity that Wang Xianzun is still in front of him, and Lin Junren can't agree with it, so he has to whisper, "Look, my lord, this Liu family has some sincerity." ”
Liu Dalang nodded hurriedly and said, "That's it, I'm very sincere!" ”
He fell in love with the beautiful girl, firstly, he coveted the little girl's beauty, and secondly, he also looked at her relationship with the palace.
Maybe you can make some benefits from this in the future, and you can make a lot of money.
Laugh at!
The neighbor who is familiar with Liu's family said disdainfully, "A person who has ordered a baby kiss since he was a child, and he still has the face to say sincerity!" ”
Liu Dalang's face was swollen and red, "That family matter is just the old man in the family talking casually, if it is not serious, I will return when I go back." ”
"Bastard!"
Wang Xianzun couldn't listen to it anymore, and said angrily, "Since the elders are in charge, how can there be any reason for you to change it without authorization by one of your juniors?" How do you let the woman behave? It's not like a son of man! ”
He looked at Lin Junren again, "Look at how old he is, how old is your daughter?" Can a female doll who is only twelve years old get married? Did you accept someone's dowry and don't want to pay it back? ”
Lin Junren was poked by Wang Xianzun's words, and his face was purple and swollen!
"What, what's the matter? Adults, please stop being angry, I'll retreat, I'll retreat! Why don't you get the dowry soon? ”
As soon as he roared, Lin Fang's family flew away.
After a while, he came out slowly, handed the money bag to Lin Junren, and dodged it as if he was flying.
Lin Junren cried out in his heart.
The Liu family's original dowry was forty taels, but he sat on the ground and asked for an extra twenty taels. After getting the money, I was proud and spent it quite lavishly, especially to buy those ginseng supplements for myself.
Now there are only forty taels left.
At the moment, I can only bite the bullet and say, "It's still a little short, I'll make up for it later." ”
Seeing this, the eldest man of the Liu family said without giving up, "How can there be such a statement?" Lord County, if you don't look down on me, I still have a younger brother who has never been engaged..."
Wang Xianzun didn't like him, but when he saw that this kid was not interesting, he went up three times and twice, and sneered at the moment.
"I don't think it's necessary. Come on, invite this Liu Gongzi to sit in the county office. Wait for the Liu family to return to Gengti, and then go home. As for the remaining deficiencies, it will be up to the official to make up for them. ”
Liu Dalang panicked now, "No, there's no need, right?" ”
Who dares to ask for money from the local parents? Besides, what kind of good place can the county government be?
But Wang Xianzun had already waved his hand, called two officials, and sent this annoying guy to the yamen cell to "sit".
The Liu family had to hurry back to report the news, and the Taoist saw that the matter had come to this point, and he slipped away early.
Mei Niang said, "Thank you for being the master of the little girl, it's just a little bit of money, how can you spend a lot of money?" The lady and the lord of Futai both gave me some gifts, so I will use them to pay off the debt. ”
And gifts? Is it a good thing in the palace?
Lin Junren's eyes straightened again.
Soon, the gifts wrapped in red silk were piled up on a table.
Mama Zhao deliberately introduced them one by one in front of everyone, "These two palace silks, two fine cloths, and eight boxes of snacks were all given by our princess." The muslin cloth is still the old color specially chosen by the beautiful lady, saying that she wants to tailor clothes for the elderly in the family. ”
"There are four big bags of rice noodles, a bag of medicinal herbs, and tea here, which are appreciated by the people of Futai. Originally, there were still twenty taels of silver for her to make a coil, but the beautiful lady didn't want it, saying that she had enough things. I donated half of the silver to the soup porridge for the victims, and the other half to build a lighthouse for His Highness. ”
The neighbors looked at these good things they had never seen before, and their eyes lit up.
When I heard that the beautiful girl had benefited herself, she didn't forget to do good deeds, and generously donated a full twenty taels in one breath, and the old man couldn't stop chanting Buddha.
"What a good child, it's strange that she is blessed to save the princess."
"Such a good girl is willing to take it to get married. This father and mother are also ruthless! ”
Wang Xianzun nodded secretly when he heard this, and also glanced at the beautiful girl.
He is a person in the officialdom, and he understands that Mei Niang is so clever when he behaves like this.
If she takes the money back, it will be nothing. But donating twenty taels can leave a good reputation.
Don't look at this false name as if it's useless, but when people really think of you, they will feel the benefits.
So he immediately said that he would not want these things.
But Lin Junren wants it!
When he saw so many good things, he was already overjoyed and itching. But when I heard that my daughter had donated twenty taels of silver, I felt pain again.
I couldn't have a seizure, and I was cheeky, and said to my daughter with a smile, "I did a good job, and I didn't teach my father in vain." ”
Bah!
The neighbors didn't believe it.
Ye, who was outspoken, said bluntly, "This is a good bamboo shoot, and a golden phoenix flies out of the chicken nest!" ”
But Lin Junren said cheekily, "That's it, isn't it also my daughter?" ”
This was said beyond the reach of the crowd.
Even if they are uneven, they can't ask the beautiful girl to change their parents, right?
Lin Junren was secretly happy in his heart.
There are so many good things, but it's more than sixty taels, and I finally made a lot of money.
But seeing his greedy appearance, the beautiful girl hid the cold color in her eyes and spoke.
