Chapter 257: Hiring

"Chen Lan and Chen Yun's marriage treasure is in the same month, which means that the Yangning Marquis Mansion has to organize two happy events to marry a daughter within a month, even if Chen Yun is just an inconspicuous concubine, there are things to do. So "the people who were not busy in the Hou Mansion were also sent on errands, and the busy people did not touch the ground, as for Chen Lan, he also took a few girls to hurry up with the embroidery work, and he hardly went to other places except the Tatexiang Courtyard in the day, and the Water Mirror Hall was not even exposed in front of him.

Within two days, it was the day of the Yang family's dowry.

And before. The post regularly invites the elders and daughters of the relatives who have parents, in-laws, husbands and sons to act on their behalf, "This time it is a big matchmaker, the man's mother comes to the door in person, if the pomp is bigger", the relatives and daughters will come together to join in the fun. But this time, the Son of Heaven is a big matchmaker, and he can't invite the emperor to come to the door in person", so the Yang family couldn't help but be embarrassed, and now Zhang Xuan, who has served as the political envoy, has the intention to make up for it, and it is lively, but he was snorted back by the Yixing county lord, "Say what kind of fun is your mother's family", and in the end, what happened, people scared Ru Ningbo, who originally planned to show his face.

Du Weifang, the second assistant of the cabinet, actually stepped forward to act as this big medium, "And the one who went to wear it was the eldest princess Longyou!"

Standing in the hall of the Yang family at this time, "glanced at the red lacquer painted gold-edged box in the courtyard outside, Du Wei conveniently retracted his gaze and looked at Yang Jinzhou, who was standing respectfully in front of him, and grabbed a handful of rat whiskers on his chin that was raised vigorously: "Since you are the one who wants to marry a wife" in the future, remember, don't let Lingtang worry more about everything, and pay more attention to the wife's room, don't listen to the set of respectful people outside, the husband and wife focus on trust, "how to live a life for Dabin all day long......"

After teaching a few lessons, Du Weifang himself couldn't help but laugh, and then smiled: "Forget it" You were originally a boring person who was young and old, just count it yourself" Don't keep a wooden face all day long. This time, I came forward, "First, because the emperor made someone speak, "Second, I used to have a teacher-student relationship with you in the past", and third, Luo Xu, that kid is worried about what the people in Runingbo's Mansion are making trouble, and the hungry son will block your happy event, making it difficult for the hall to deal ......with it alone."

Yang Jinzhou was stunned for a moment, "Thinking of the words that Luo Xu said when he invited him to drink at that time," the originally somewhat cold face couldn't help but show a smile: "No matter what, thank you sir!" As for Brother Luo, I will definitely come to the door another day to thank you in person......"

"It's better to invite him to drink than to thank you, he is about the same size as you, but the family matter has not been decided for a long time" I have heard some rumors before" It was about the past two days. Speaking of Luo Xu, Du Weifang's beard curled again, "You say it's a literary and martial arts", but your foundation in history is good, "He is even more amazing, and his martial arts are quite impressive" You might as well make more friends in the future, "It's not too early, if you don't leave, I'm afraid you'll have to urge me." Since the emperor gave you a marriage leave in October, you will take less leave in September, "Today is an exception, and you are not allowed to fish for three days and dry nets for two days on the remaining days......"

Yang Jin, Zhou Du, Du Weifang, this Jiaoyu said helplessly, "I had to nod and said, "Yes, sir, please rest assured......"

The lesson is enough" Du Weifang touched his beard and walked out of the main hall, and someone over there had already gone to report to Yang Mujiang. And looking at the dozens of lifting of the ceremony, "he suddenly couldn't help but pull his beard," pinched his fingers and counted.

Nowadays, ordinary rich and noble people have made a big decision, "They also use more sixteen lifts, and there are more in the families of the officials, and thirty-two and sixty-four lifts only hate to do their best." In the early years, some people wanted to write these into the law, "saying that marriage is not allowed to be extravagant, but it was refuted by Taizu in one sentence, and marriage comparison has existed since ancient times. So until now, "it's just a matter of doing what you can, just words." Fortunately, he doesn't have many children, "two ladies have been virtuous", and the marriage money of the three children has been prepared, otherwise it would be really difficult to do. Look at the current posture of the Yang family...... Fortunately, Mrs. Yang will live, otherwise in order to live up to the name of marriage, the family's deficit will be big in the future!

After a while, Yang's mother Jiang and the eldest princess and a few mothers came out, met Du Weifang and said a few words, "The three of them got on the sedan chair one after another." However, "this time it is the dowry first" The sedan chair was postponed, and I saw one after the other, wearing a red and gold wedding robe, and a big velvet hat on his head, and lifted the Nashi box with a shout, "Swinging out of the door."

All the boxes are custom-made "three feet long and one and a half feet wide, six inches deep, at first glance it doesn't hold many things, but these dozens of lifts on the road will be opened, but it has attracted countless people to watch. In particular, the pair of geese in the goose cage attracted many envious eyes. It must be known that to this day, it is not easy to shoot "this wild goose has become a rare bird", let alone capture it alive. Caring people even counted on the side of the road, "Until the group turns into Yangning Street", this is a clear count.

"This is only sixty-four lifts, from the former Yangning Marquis Mansion to the Korean government to marry a daughter, the Korean government dowry was one hundred and twenty-eight lifts, and when the Korean duchess is married, when the makeup and hair are dying" There is still most of the things left at this end and has not gone out, and that end has already arrived at the Korean government "that pomp ........."

"Isn't that nonsense? Today's Mrs. Tai is only the daughter of the Korean Duchess. , but now there are four girls in the Yangning Hou Mansion alone, "I heard that all of them will be married before the end of the year, and they will be accompanied like they did back then", how can they afford it? ”

The onlookers here were gossiping and discussing, "The dowry over there was sent into the courtyard of the Yangning Marquis Mansion", although the people were orderly and silent, "but there was no thought in their hearts." Du Weifang and Jiang were invited into the main hall and Fuqing Hall for tea, "The invited guests followed the main family to pass the dowry in the courtyard. Others are just that," Mrs. Ma saw that the lid of the boxes was lifted, "from wild geese to the sea of wine to silk rulers, gold and silver jewelry", although the quantity is similar to the previous dowry of the prince of Runing, but the quality seems to be two percent higher, and she can't help but raise her eyebrows in annoyance.

"It's the nouveau riche," "My lord! Zhu's mother, who used to be the most arrogant, has now become more cautious than anyone else, and hurriedly reminded in a low voice beside her, "It's amazing to let people hear it in front of the old lady!" After all, too. Fourteen lifts, and did not cross the second aunt and grandmother to ......"

"What hasn't been crossed, this is clearly a demonstration!" Mrs. Ma sneered hatefully, "Seeing that everyone else is full of laughter, I immediately feel that it is even more boring to stand here, "How long will it take to stand here and blow the wind on a cold day!" ”

Zhu heard that there was a pair of real geese in this dowry, and Nahan's Xi Shi was indescribably happy, and he couldn't wait for everyone to come and see the dowry in the courtyard. Therefore, when the Dai ceremony was inserted, "I saw that the eldest princess of Longyou inserted a phoenix hairpin with a bead on Chen Lan's head, she only felt that her body was a lot lighter", and even broke free from Zheng's mother's hand and stood up straight.

Du Weifang is famous today, "But after all, he took a leave, so he left early after the matter was done" The Jiang family also had to go home early to handle the next things, only the eldest princess Longyou stayed for a while, but she still left earlier than the other guests.

As for the other guests, some took the banquet after watching the ceremony and said goodbye, and some of the close ones were stable for a while, "But Mrs. Ma, the aunt of the in-law, disappeared early." And Chen Lan, who is to be married, is not good at showing up in front of people now, and has been staying in the house, but he has no heart to do this needlework anyway.

Chen Yan, who was kicked out of the house early in the morning to go to class, came back early, rushed into her, and curiously interrogated about the details of today's magnification. Where did Chen Lan know this" I only saw Su Mu and Hu Biao, one of them talking endlessly, and they kept dancing and gesturing" When Yun'er ran back like a gust of wind, the house was even more lively.

"I heard that the pair of geese were caught by the future aunt when he went out of the city after the marriage, and when he saw that they were injured, he took them back to the house and raised them, and now he will redeem them and release them after the end of the ceremony, isn't this the best omen? For many years, "even the top noble families in the capital" may not be able to get such a pair...... Sister Bu and her future uncle are really fateful."

"At a glance, you can see that the silk ruler is a new style, and it is by no means the old color of those pressed at the bottom of the box, I heard that most of them were given to the future uncle by the palace, and some of them were newly transported from Jiangnan. As for the gold and silver jewelry, "there are quite a few old ones," and it is said that they are still left by the grandmother of the future uncle, "but they are well kept," and "there are also the most fashionable huā-like bodhisattvas today."

"Also, the silver of this ceremony is also in good condition" Unlike when the prince of Runing made the decision, "gold was replaced by silver, but the gold still turned into a lot of gold jewelry and gold armor accumulated in the early years of the family, but there were many messy things............"

Chen Lan finally couldn't listen to it anymore, and didn't pay attention to how Chen Yan was concentrating, and stopped the gushing Yun'er in one gulp, so he said angrily: "There's nothing else to do" just talking about these things! ”

"It's okay, it's okay, didn't I just rush back to give the dowry today?" Chen Yan salivated and leaned in front of Chen Lan, and grinned again, "I understand very well, the second sister was so much at the beginning" so we can't cross it, the old lady gave her sister a dowry of one hundred and twenty-eight lifts, "they don't lose anything" This trip is actually more of a gesture of affection. is only compared to the second brother-in-law's kind of face-saving skills, my future brother-in-law is very sincere, "worthy of the emperor's marriage ............"

Before he finished speaking, Chen Lan gave Chen Yan a heavy slap of chestnut dates, and when he was staring, "The little girl from outside reported in, saying that the fourth lady Chen Yun was here." As soon as he heard this, Chen Yan immediately stretched his face, "Although Chen Lan was surprised, he couldn't avoid it, so he ordered someone to come in. When Chen Yun entered the house, "Seeing this, seeing that her sister who was about to get married was gray, and she was wearing old clothes from last year's autumn clothes, she couldn't help frowning.

It's time for the concubine to get married, and the surface work has to be done, Mrs. Ma really doesn't even want to face it?
