479 Marriage
The status of the second room in the Hou Mansion is immediately different, although the Hou Mansion is still the very poor Hou Mansion, but there is basically no difference in the food and clothing of the second room of the big house, even if Zhong 2 wakes up later, he is busy taking care of the Bai family and the Bai family.
Zhong Xiaoxin originally thought that Xiao Shen's temperament would definitely try her best to get money in her arms if she had such an opportunity, but people didn't, looking at Xiao Shen's meaning, she probably felt that she would have to be the head of the Zhong Mansion in the future, so she was not in a hurry to change the silver from her left hand to her right hand, but began to get busy with some serious things.
For example, the marriage of the girls.
Zhong Xiaoxin is now the princess of Duan as long as she dies before marriage, and the second room of the Hou Mansion has become a royal prince, and the tide is rising, and her value is different.
Xiao Shen's is busy now, that is, Zhong 3's marriage, she is just this one daughter, and she is also making money to save Zhong 3's dowry, if the marriage is delayed for the sake of silver, it is not to give up the book, Xiao Shen doesn't do such a stupid thing.
Because of Duanwang, there are also people like the second room to inquire about the news of Zhong 3, but these things are thinking about the people who come to climb the dragon and the phoenix, of course the Xiao Shen family can't take a fancy to it, and the Xiao Shen family himself also takes a fancy to the three families, but they are all a little difficult.
"This first is the sincerity of the Bo Xin family, because of the girl, you saved the Xin girl, at that time during the Chongyang banquet, the second wife talked very well with Mrs. Cheng Bo Shizi, but the sincerity of Mrs. Bo Shizi wanted to hire 3 girls to be the daughter-in-law of the long house, but the second wife took a fancy to the brother of Miss Xin, and wanted Miss 3 to be the wife of the sect. Kuju said.
Zhong Xiaoxin didn't know what to say. "The second wife has such a big heart. "Didn't the legend say that it was the younger brother of Miss Xin? When did you change your target to a sectarian woman?
However, because of Zhong Xiaoxin, Chi Si, who had no public morality, said that the second master Zhong was named in front of Emperor Yuanzhi, and Emperor Yuanzhi didn't think much about it, or he didn't think it was a big deal, and when the saint gave the decree, he wrote that Zhong Xiaoxin was the eldest granddaughter of the Hou Mansion, that is to say, as long as the Zhong family didn't want to rebel, they had to give the second master the identity of a son-in-law, and now the second room is also considered to be the grandson of the Hou Mansion, although Zhong 3 is from the stepfamily, but it is also the granddaughter of the concubine, and it is okay to match the son of the Bofu sect.
But the second wife really doesn't understand what "decline" is, or is she pretending to be confused.
In short, the marriage of the Xin family seems to be unlikely.
"The second is an imperial merchant surnamed Yue in Beijing. That family is also the third girl who asks for the son of the family, and the second wife is also quite satisfied, but ......"
Kuju said the difficulties of this family.
Since the other party is an imperial businessman, of course, he has a lot of money, and when he comes to talk about marriage, he doesn't talk about the family, he talks about money when he comes up, and Xiao Shen's family is also from a businessman, this style, she doesn't feel hurt at all, she just feels refreshed.
The son of the Yue family is the son of the sect, and he has a lot of money, and he does not pay attention to the dowry of the Zhong family. Although Xiao Shen also wants to marry Zhong San into Gaomen, but Gaomen has the suffering of Gaomen, she herself is an example of marrying into Gaomen, if she can't be a clan woman with the power of life and death, then no matter which family she marries into, she has to look at people's eyes, Xiao Shen's and the matchmaker of the Yue family talked very well, and they almost had to settle down on the spot. But so Xiao Shen's family has a heart for the Yue family, and it is not unconditional for the Yue family to marry a woman. Duanwang's fiefdom is in Jiangnan, and the Yue family wants to get the salt introduction of a line in Jiangnan.
It turned out that although the Yue family was an imperial merchant in Beijing, but they were excluded from their peers, and they couldn't maintain their identity as an imperial businessman. Because the Hou Mansion of Ji'an has really declined for many years, and I am not familiar with anyone, there is no place for outsiders to inquire about the situation, the Yue family only listens to some market legends, and in front of Zhong Xiaoxin, who was really raised by Xiao Shen after losing her mother, has the grace of nurturing, and is the same sister as Zhong San. Therefore, the sky-high dowry was offered, which is actually equivalent to the gift money given to King Duan, but the Yue family will also calculate, if Zhong Xiaoxin is willing to contribute to his sister, and Xiao Shen has no son, then this dowry will still be brought back to the Yue family with Zhong 3 sooner or later.
This time, Xiao Shen's heart was cold. When outsiders accept Zhong Xiaoxin's great favor from her, can she not count it in her own heart? She has hurt Zhong Xiaoxin several times openly and secretly, even if Zhong Xiaoxin doesn't know about this, there is no reason to go to Duanwang for help for Zhong 3's husband's family.
Xiao Shen remembers that last time Zhong Xiaoxin said that he would help Zhong 2 ask for a decree, what the hell was it that he asked for. Even if Zhong Xiaoxin really said that she could help Zhong 3, Xiao Shen didn't dare to let her help, so the Yue family's matter was forgotten.
The reason why there was a big fuss was because in the ten days that Zhong Xiaoxin was away, the Yue family did not give up, and after a few times, the matchmaker was asked to say all the good things, and made it clear that his family did not have to get the salt to send the dowry, if Xiao Shen felt embarrassed, he could first set up the marriage, and the Yue family had the identity of Duanwang's brother-in-law, so they would naturally find a way to tie up with Duanwang.
Xiao Shen didn't agree either.
It turned out that she had inquired, the Yue family did not develop well in Beijing, if his family caught up with Duanwang, already the main business in Jiangnan, Zhong 3 would have to leave the capital, and it would be difficult to face all year round; 。
So although the Yue family was enthusiastic, Xiao Shen disagreed, and this matter was no show.
"I can understand why his family, as an imperial businessman, can't survive in the capital. Zhong Xiaoxin said. This Yue family's family style is also decent, and the upright and upright sent a matchmaker to ask for it, and what conditions are also put on the face to negotiate, it is better than marrying someone to go through the door, only to find that the line of Duanwang is not used, and then quietly harm people, but this kind of upright temperament is really not suitable for business. "It's just that where did he inquire about it, and I have a deep sisterhood with Zhong 3?"
"I heard that there is a strange book called "Bai Zhong Meeting" in the market, which has been made into a joke to tell a story, which is about the Zhong family, which tells the girl, the scene before you committed suicide in the old lady's main hall, and only the second wife and the third lady are willing to say a fair word for you in the courtyard. I haven't heard of this book, but according to the Yue family, I am very moved, and his family just wants to marry such a loving and righteous girl as a clan wife. Girl, will you come back for a few days? It's okay to do it, just give me half a day's leave, and I want to go out and listen to this strange book. Bitter chrysanthemum provided the source.
Zhong Xiaoxin: "...... It's better not to listen. ”
