Chapter 126: Dowry

The ancestral hall has been built for decades, the wind and rain, the experience is numerous, it should have been repaired a long time ago, but the village is not rich, a year after a year, always failed to collect money to start construction, now there is such a good thing, Li Zheng is naturally happy, the mouth politely said that it is not necessary, but in the heart of the early plan to go back to mobilize the villagers to find stones and wood, must be the ancestral hall to repair a new one.

Zhao Fengnian called Qian Heitan to step forward and whispered a few words, watching him run away, he closed the car door, and called Zhang Dahe to catch the car back on the road, Li Zheng thought that he sent Qian Heitan back to the village to deliver the letter, so he smiled and said, "Mr. is thoughtful, the villagers must be worried, send a letter to let them know that there is no lawsuit, and they are all at ease." ”

Zhao Fengnian nodded with a light smile, and turned to find something else to say, but he didn't say where Qian Heitan went.

Soon, the carriage entered Lingfeng City, the government is located in the middle of the most spacious and clean bluestone street, the most easy to find, Zhao Fengnian handed a piece of broken silver to the official in front of the door, and he ran in to find Lao Wang out.

There are people in the capital who are easy to do, but in two quarters of an hour, they changed the title deed and went to the file, and Li Zheng saw that the deed paper was actually written "Zhao Qin's", so he couldn't help but persuade, "Mr. Zhao, it is best to write the name of the owner of the house in this deed, otherwise... Well... After all, the woman..."

He wanted to say that the name of Zhao Niangzi was written on the deed, but it was equivalent to Zhao Niangzi's dowry, in case the Zhao family and his wife reconciled and separated in the future, this courtyard would be divided to find the lady, and Zhao Fengnian would have nothing left. In case of a recurrence of his illness, this courtyard will not fall into the hands of the Zhao family, and can only be taken away by the government with Ruixue, but when he said this, it seems that he is suspected of cursing the Zhao family and his wife for a long time, and cursing Zhao Feng's short life, so it is inevitable that he will stumble as soon as he speaks.

Of course, Zhao Fengnian understood Li Zheng's thoughts, raised his eyes and motioned for Lao Wang to continue to stamp the file, and then said to Li Zheng, "After half a year of marriage, the bundle I earned is not enough to eat and dress, and every degree of application and industry in the family is all made up by the Qin family himself, so naturally her name must be written and counted as her dowry." As for the inheritance in my name, I will earn it in the future. ”

Lao Wang blew dry the ink on the deed paper, and when he heard him say this, he praised, "Sir's mind and courage really make Wang admire!" ”

Li Zheng remembered that a few days ago, Zhao Fengnian was seriously ill, and Rui Xue had eaten all the hardships, and nodded, "Mrs. Zhao is indeed not easy, and she deserves to be treated like this by Mr." ”

Lao Wang said with a smile, "It's rare that Mr. and Li Zheng entered the city today, I'll be the east, how about inviting the two of you to find a good restaurant and have two drinks?" ”

Zhao Fengnian thanked him, but shook his head and refused, "The courtyard at home is halfway built, and there are still many chores to deal with. ”

"It's fine." Lao Wang responded and sent them out of the palace.

There was nothing to say all the way, when I returned to the village, it was already the end of Shen Shi, and several clan elders heard the news that Qian Heitan sent back, and they all waited in the Zhao family hall, drinking tea while talking about how to punish Zhao Laoer, especially Yun Sanye, his face was extremely ugly, the last time Qingshan happened, it was he who showed his old face, and only saved their family, Zhao Laoer didn't say that he lived in peace, and he made such a bad heart behind his back, this is in front of the whole village, slap him, the old man made up his mind, this time it was Zhao Laotou who came to cry and beg in person, He would never help to intercede anymore.

As soon as everyone saw Li Zheng and Zhao Fengnian coming back, they all greeted them, said a few words, and were about to go to Zhao's house to say that, but they were stopped by Rui Xue, and said, Li Zheng and Zhao Fengnian entered the city without lunch, and then went to Zhao's house, I am afraid that dinner will also be wrong, so I will bring someone to set up a sumptuous banquet.

The clan elders praised Rui Xue for her careful understanding of etiquette and respect for her elders while eating and drinking, Zhao Fengnian glanced at Rui Xue who was busy in the yard, and her heart was warm, where did she respect her elders, obviously she felt sorry for her hunger.

After the meal, the clan elders went to Zhao Laoer's house in the front yard, and a group of helpers hurriedly followed to see the excitement, and they followed like a swarm after eating a few bites indiscriminately.

From beginning to end, even when Mrs. Liu's mother and son talked about the inside story, Li Zheng was present, Zhao Fengnian and Rui Xue did not confront the past, Zhao Fengnian turned over the account books and counted the expenses of the past few days, and Rui Xue took people to pick up the dishes and chopsticks, with a smile on her face, as if this matter had nothing to do with the Zhao family.

Peach Blossom secretly glanced at Rui Xue several times, and finally couldn't help asking, "Lady Zhao, aren't you worried about Zhao's second sister-in-law's trickery?" ”

Rui Xue was washing the pottery bowl, and when she asked, she smiled and said, "When the Liu family came to make trouble, and when Mrs. Liu's mother and son told the truth, Li Zheng was all there, and naturally the elders in the village were in charge of this matter, and the second sister-in-law Zhao couldn't admit it." ”

"This is also true, Zhao's second sister-in-law splashes on weekdays, and she has to be reasonable in front of the elders."

"Zhao Lao Er is too unconscionable, as long as they paid for the smashed things last time, they were already spared, why are they so ungrateful as husband and wife?"

"They just think that Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao are soft-hearted and easy to bully!"

The women gossiped and gossiped, and even Zhao's second sister-in-law stole two green onions from the neighbor's house, Rui Xue listened to it funny, and was only busy not interjecting, and finally heard that everyone was almost done, so she smiled and said, "There are still more than 20 buns left at noon, and they should be broken overnight, and everyone will divide them in a while, and take them back to the children to eat." ”

When the little daughters-in-law heard this, they all squinted happily, but they still excused themselves and said, "Mrs. Zhao will keep it for Brother Yu and Da Zhuang to eat." ”

Rui Xue shook her head, "When they are hungry, I will make food for them, but you help me all day long, and the children at home can't take care of them." ”

The little daughter-in-law said that there was a mother-in-law and the like at home, but when she left, the buns were all accepted.

But in half an hour, Sister-in-law Zhang came back with Wu Yu and Da Zhuang, pulled Rui Xue and said with a smile, "Zhao Lao Er has suffered retribution." ”

Rui Xue sat her down and asked, "What, but the clan elders drove him out of the village?" ”

"Originally, the clan elders went to Zhao's house, talking about today's events, Zhao Lao's second daughter-in-law still didn't admit it, and said that it was you and Mr. who wronged her family, so angry that Li Zheng and the clan elders were black-faced, and in less than half a while, Zhao Laotou took his eldest son and youngest son, and carried Zhao Lao'er back, saying that Zhao Lao'er went to Xiaopingshan Zhao's old house to eat and drink, and was stopped by people as soon as he left the village, beaten violently, and his right leg was broken. Li Zheng asked the clan elder who beat him, but he didn't say it, and asked him about the bad behind his back and provoking Mrs. Liu to make trouble, but he didn't admit it. Li Zheng discussed with the clan elders, and asked Old Man Zhao to find a car tomorrow to move Zhao Lao's family back to Xiaopingshan. ”

"Moving back to Kohirayama? Zhao's second sister-in-law must disagree. ”

Of course, it was because she was not filial to her mother-in-law that she made her mother-in-law angry, and the old man Zhao was angry and drove them out to pass alone, and now she has to move back, and the Zhao family will be lively in the future. Old man Zhao pleaded, but the clan elder and Li Zheng did not let go, they must move. ”

Rui Xue sighed, "Although it is said that their family has repeatedly made mistakes first, but when outsiders hear it, they will inevitably think that my Zhao family can't tolerate their family." ”

"Sister doesn't have to worry too much, right and wrong, as long as you are reasonable, you know that the fault is not in your family, even those who are stupid, just say a few words of gossip, and throw it behind in a few days." Sister-in-law Zhang persuaded.

Rui Xue drank the tea in the cup and said with a smile, "In a few days, the yard will be built, the workshop will be opened, it is bound to recruit a few more people, I will discuss with Mr. at night to see how many men and women will recruit, and tomorrow I will talk to everyone, and those who are willing to come to work will be registered." When the time comes, you and Brother Zhang will help to check more, after all, we have lived in this village for a short time, and our personalities are not as familiar to you. ”

Sister-in-law Zhang smiled and nodded, "It's good for us to recruit people, just like Zhao Lao Er and Wu Lao San, no matter how diligent they are, they can't ask for it." ”

Rui Xue was about to speak, when she heard a cooing sound next to her, she turned her head to see that Da Zhuang and Wu Yu were holding their stomachs and glaring at each other, so she asked, "What's wrong, but you're hungry?" ”

Both boys blushed and said, "I didn't have enough for dinner." ”

"You're in a hurry to see the excitement, you don't care about eating a few bites." Rui Xue rewarded them with a popping chestnut one by one, and said with a smile, "There is still a small half pot of bone broth in the stove, I'll go and order a few bowls of noodles, and you can go and bring Er Zhuang and Anya over to eat together." ”

"Okay." The two boys smiled and ran next door to find their younger siblings. Sister-in-law Zhang said, "Sister, you are too spoiled by them, but you will sleep after being hungry for a while, and it is nothing to eat when you get up tomorrow morning." ”

Rui Xue said with a smile while looking for an apron to tie it, "When they are so old, they are sleeping and growing taller, how can they be hungry, besides, there is no shortage of food at home." After speaking, she shouted to the back room again, "Shopkeeper, I want to make noodle soup, and you can also drink a bowl." ”

"Okay." Zhao Fengnian answered in the house, Rui Xue smiled even more happily, went to the kitchen to be busy, and Sister-in-law Zhang had nothing to do at home, so she helped light the fire.

Soon the bone broth noodles were served, stretched thinly, almost transparent, tumbling in the milky white soup, sprinkled with a handful of green onions, looking at it is pleasing to the eye, eating is even more fragrant and delicious, large and small seven people, and there are no men, women and children, gathered around the square table, eating very lively, in a blink of an eye a small pot of noodles to see the bottom.

Sister-in-law Zhang went home with a few children with round stomachs, Rui Xue picked up the stove, took a bath and entered the house, Zhao Fengnian took the deed to her, and said with a smile, "This is your dowry." ”

"Dowry?" Rui Xue was puzzled, and when she saw the words "Zhao Qin's" written on it, she understood, and she was happy and moved in her heart, and quipped, "You have to treat me well in the future, otherwise I, the owner of the house, will kick you out of the house." ”

Zhao Fengnian liked her eyebrows dancing like this, her radiant appearance, nodded and smiled, "Okay." Don't you know that one day when he was isolated outside the courtyard gate, he regretted how generous he was today and wrote Ruixue's name. So much so that after their family was reunited, the first thing he did was to exchange the manor worth 10,000 taels in Tongcheng for the title deed of this small mansion, for fear of being abandoned by his wife and children again.
