Chapter 186: A Valuable Dowry

The matchmaker went all the way to the door of the Tang family, Looking at the dilapidated house and the simple furnishings at home, she really couldn't understand why the people of the Liu family were willing to be in-laws with this kind of person, but when she thought of the young master of the Liu family, she also understood that this marriage was a concubine.

Tang Zheng and the others were all standing in the courtyard, and when they saw the matchmaker coming in, Song hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, "Matchmaker Liu, welcome!" ”

This is what Tang Zheng confessed, their family should have been Xu's family to greet the matchmaker, but he knew the nature of the Liu family, and he was afraid that she would do something out of the ordinary, so he asked the Song family to greet the matchmaker.

After all, the Song family has always been in the town, and her communication skills are definitely much better than the Xu family after so many years, so she came.

Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "I came to propose marriage for the son-in-law of the Liu family, your family is really lucky, this can be favored by the young master of the Liu family, and you will definitely have a good life if you marry in the future." “

Tang Zheng's brows furrowed, does this matchmaker really look down on them? They are also the in-laws of the Liu family, unlike this matchmaker, who just collects money from others to help others work.

The Song family also noticed it, and the smile on her face faded a little, their family is a woman, so they naturally have their own reserve, this matchmaker is just entrusted by others, why should she look down on their family.

When the matchmaker saw the appearance of the Song family and Tang Zheng, she reacted immediately, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Your daughter-in-law must be very good, otherwise can she be favored by the son-in-law of the Liu family?" ”

She can look down on the Tang family in her heart, but she must not really make the Tang family angry, otherwise this family business will definitely not be successful, and she will offend the Liu family, and she will not be able to get her matchmaker money.

When Xu Shi heard this, he hurriedly spoke, "That's for sure, my daughter is beautiful and capable, and the most important thing is that we haven't let her work since she was a child." ”

When the matchmaker heard these words, she felt a little disdainful, a country woman is not working, how can a rich girl be precious.

However, the son of the Tang family should be very good-looking, and if he can't, he won't be taken by the son of the Liu family.

"Why don't you just call out your girl! I'd give her the dowry and let him pass by, wouldn't I? “

Hearing this, Xu hurriedly went to his daughter's room, Song and Tang Zheng both frowned, and the matchmaker's heart was full of contempt, this is a countryman without rules.

There are so many people here, where can I use the person with the highest rank in the Xu family, her daughter-in-law just shouted in the past?

But this time she didn't show it again, and she didn't plan to deal with these people more, just get by on the face, there was no need to cause trouble anymore.

The Xu family quickly brought Tang Zhiqiao out, and the matchmaker's pupils shrank after seeing it, where did this Tang family get their confidence, such a woman actually said that she was good-looking, where was she good-looking, and she wasn't even good-looking?

Xu looked at the matchmaker triumphantly and said, "Look, this is my daughter, isn't she very beautiful!" ”

The matchmaker smiled dryly and didn't say anything to praise.

Although it is said that the matchmaker's mouth is the best at speaking, but it is a good thing to say about people who can bring benefits to themselves, this Tang family is so poor, it is not worth her to bother to say good things.

"This is Miss Tang! I am here to propose marriage for the young master of the Liu family, and since you have come out, I will give you all the dowry gifts. ”

After saying that, let those who came with him lift the red cloth on the dowry.

"Ahh

The crowd erupted in exclamation, because the dowry given by the Liu family was so luxurious, it was almost blinding their eyes, and no one knew what luck the Tang family had taken to catch such a golden beetle son-in-law.

The people of the Tang family were also shocked by this dowry, Tang Zhiqiao felt that she was about to lose her breath, she had never seen so many of these things, they were all dowry gifts for herself.

The matchmaker glanced at their actions and said slowly: "This is a dowry for you, fifty taels of silver, ten golden hairpins, ten golden steps, twenty silver hairpins, ten gold bracelets, ten catties of pork, two chickens, ten pieces of cloth, and ten catties of brown sugar." ”

After this dowry was said, the people in the village were simply envious to death, this is too much, and the people in their village have never had so many dowries when they get married.

The most silver is six taels of silver, and then there are pork, pastries and brown sugar, fabrics, and some people will give a piece of jewelry, which is good, but I didn't expect this Tang Zhiqiao's dowry to be so much.

Xu's feet were a little impatient, she really wanted to step forward and get these dowries into her hands, but looking at the people in the courtyard, she didn't dare to move, she could only watch with blank eyes.

Although Tang Zheng has always pretended to be very calm, his trembling hands still betrayed him, this is the gap, they countrymen marry daughters-in-law, and they spend a lot of money to get a similar dowry.

As a result, people just gave so many dowries just as concubines, and if they were wives, they didn't know how much the dowry would get!

After the matchmaker finished speaking, she saw that the people of the Tang family did not move, so she could only cough, and the people of the Tang family recovered and said with a smile: "This is really precious." ”

The matchmaker said lightly: "The Liu family is the richest man in our town, naturally there is no shortage of silver, these things are very valuable in your opinion, and they are not worth much money at all." ”

She is telling the truth, she has given dowries to many rich families, and it can naturally be seen that there are not many dowries given by the Liu family, and there are no gems, jade, and jade, so these dowries are almost only a few dozen taels of silver.

But she didn't say these words, after all, it was strange to give a dowry to a concubine, and it would be wrong if it was expensive again, and now this matter is almost reasonable.

The people of the Tang family nodded, "Thank you." ”

The matchmaker glanced at them arrogantly and said, "This Liu family has already set a date, and it will be an auspicious time in five days, and they will come to pick up people at that time." ”

"Five days later?"

The people of the Tang family were all surprised, they were in such a hurry to pick up Tang Zhiqiao!

Xu Shi also hurriedly said: "That's right, we haven't had time to prepare a dowry for Qiao'er in the past five days!" ”

The matchmaker waved her hand and said, "No need, the Liu family said, I don't want you to prepare a dowry, their family doesn't lack anything, you don't need to bother anything, and they can come directly to pick up people when the time comes." “

Hearing this, Xu smiled and said, "That's okay, our family won't prepare anything, this is also good for our family, otherwise we will be rude." ”

The matchmaker just smiled and didn't speak, these words were said by the old man of the Liu family, but he didn't explain it, it was she who understood it, this Liu family definitely didn't want the Tang family's things, they didn't have anything in the house.

The dowry given by the Tang family is like rags when it goes to someone else's house, and it is not rare at all, so it is not allowed to let their family get it.

The matchmaker's affair was over, she turned around and left, she really didn't want to stay here, she was poor and rotten.

After the Tang family sent the matchmaker away, they were surrounded by the villagers, and they all asked what was going on.

Xu felt that he was raising his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "It's the Liu family in the town, and our family is going to marry him." “

Hearing this, the people in the village were stunned for a moment, and only after a long time did they smile and say, "That's really a blessing, your family." ”

Although they said so, they were all a little jealous, what kind of shit luck did this Tang family go, just the Tang Zhiqiao of their family, who was not good-looking and lazy, couldn't do anything, and didn't know a word, how could he marry a rich family in the town!

Tang Zheng naturally understood the thoughts of the people in the village, but Xu couldn't see it, and she stupidly thought that the people in the village were really congratulating them.

When Song saw his mother-in-law's proud appearance, he also looked down on her in his heart, why couldn't this mother-in-law be smarter?

After a while, the rest of the people in the village heard the news and also came, Tang Zhiqiao happily received all the dowry gifts into her house, but she only asked for jewelry and cloth, and gave the rest to Xu.

Xu Shi was very dissatisfied, "Qiao'er, you can't be like this, what can you do if you take all these things, the Liu family has money and there is no shortage of these things, what are you bringing them for?" ”

The Song family also hurriedly spoke, "Qiao'er, my mother is right, you better keep these things at home, the Liu family is not rare at all." ”

If these things were all here in the Xu family, maybe she could get one, and if they were all given to Tang Zhiqiao, needless to say, she would know that this would definitely not be her share.

Tang Zhiqiao glared, "No, don't you just want to stay at home?" Hmph, all of them have bad intentions, really, how can I have a family like you, no one is really good for me, just thinking about taking advantage of me. ”

"Bastard!" Tang Zheng looked at her angrily and said, "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Tang Zhiqiao pursed his lips and said, "Isn't what I'm telling the truth?" Don't you just want these things from me? Don't even think about it, I'm going to take it all with me. ”

As soon as Xu Shi heard this, his face immediately changed, "No, you can't take it away, since these things are a dowry for our Tang family, then they have to be given to our family, right?" “

Tang Zhiqiao wanted to say something, but Tang Zheng spoke, "Okay, since you want to take it away, then you can take it away!" It's just that we won't care about your marriage, and we won't send you, if you want to invite the people in the village to send your relatives, you can call them yourself! We won't take care of anything, and you won't marry out of our house. ”

Tang Zhiqiao looked at him in surprise and said, "Dad, how can you do this?" I'm your daughter! ”

Tang Zheng looked at her and said, "Why can't I do this, why can't we do what you can do?" Let me tell you, Tang Zhiqiao, this dowry is for our Tang family, if you want to take it all away, then you can do your own work when you get married! ”
