Pearl hurriedly sent a letter to her mother's family, telling them the news that General Yue was willing to accept apprentices, asked Liu He to read more books quickly, and also sent a book on the art of war to Liu He. The Liu family must be very happy, even the pearl has been happy for several days because of this incident, it can be said that Liu He worshiped General Yue as a teacher, and his future future will be guaranteed.

On this day, Ming Zhen'er found the pearl and apologized to the pearl, it turned out that she was doing business, after the excitement and satisfaction, she was poured cold water by the Qian family, in the words of the Qian family, although the things you bought, although they are good, but if there is no material provided by the pearl, they can't be sold for so much money. In this way, the four girls knew that the master didn't say anything about this matter, obviously deliberately letting them earn money, Ming Zhen'er stood in front of Pearl, and there were three dejected girls standing behind her.

Pearl smiled and said, "Although the materials I provide are good, your craftsmanship is also absolutely commendable, if you make large embroidery drawings and sell them for money, then give me the material money." You did a good job this time, see no, this time it was so successful, the materials are good, but your craftsmanship is also an important factor. In the future, you must study hard and strive to make a lot of money. ”

"Well, we got it." The four girls all nodded together, obviously being sure of the pearl made them full of confidence and more motivated to learn.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, the pregnant woman Pearl is idle, and Mingqian has now got the book that Pearl brought back to read, and there is not much time for tomorrow. Sometimes Mingqian will coax his son to play, or read to Pearl, in order to have prenatal education. Obviously, Ming Qian felt that his eldest son not only looked like him, but also had a mind like him, and he would definitely be a scholar in the future, so Ming Qian's love for Huairen went to a higher level.

On this day, Shen suddenly came to visit, and the pearl went out, and Shen quickly pulled the pearl into the house. Pearl is a little strange, Shen rarely comes to her house, what's wrong this time? In such a hurry?

"What's wrong, sister-in-law?"

"Your eldest brother saved the daughter of the Wang Er family at the foot of a nearby mountain. It's a problem this time. Shen panicked and circled around the house,

Pearl sat on the chair, looked at Shen, and said, "What's the trouble?" ”

"There is a stream at the foot of the mountain. Now the stream is frozen, the people in the village often go to the big fish, especially now that the New Year is coming soon, the daughter of the Wang Er family is going to fish, but it fell into the water, your eldest brother happened to go to the foot of the mountain to cut wood, just happened to meet, and rescued it, the clothes of the two people were wet, and your eldest brother carried the people back to the village. There were a lot of people who saw it. Now people say that the daughter of the second family of Wang has lost her virginity and must marry your eldest brother, what can I do? Shen said, tears fell,

When Pearl heard this, the expression on her face was not very good-looking, and the family opened the mouth of taking a concubine or marrying a flat wife, and it was difficult to guarantee that her husband would not be calculated. It seems that the Shen family came to her, and they really found the right person. Pearl asked.

"What kind of person is this Wang Er, and what kind of character is her daughter?"

Shen also sat down, sighed and said, "Then the two kings are both muddy people. Some time ago, he also said that he would sell his daughter, and then marry his eldest son to his daughter-in-law, they have two sons, both of whom are not good things, and the eldest son Wang Gou is left in the town as a bastard and rarely goes home. This year is twenty-two, the second son Wang Goudan, twenty years old, the daughter of the Wang family is called Wang Daya, eighteen years old this year, she looks strong and strong, her appearance is average, the whole family is lazy to eat, just count on her alone! It is said that he is a very honest person, but the dowry that their family wants is high, and since she is married, there is no one to work, so she has not married yet. ”

Pearl thought for a while and said, "This matter should be solved by money, first persuade Wang Daya, and then persuade her father and grandparents, let her father and mother recognize her as a righteous daughter, and then give some money, it should be solved, of course, you have to be very persistent and resolutely not let this woman enter the door, so it is also necessary to reach an agreement with the eldest brother." ”

"And what about me lying that I'm pregnant?" Shen said,

Pearl shook her head, "If you get pregnant, they will have more excuses to take a concubine for the eldest brother." However, everyone is the daughter-in-law of the Ming family, and if the eldest brother wants to take a concubine, I won't pay a penny. ”

Shen got the idea and hurriedly left, Pearl is a younger brother and sister, of course it is not good to say much, Pearl is still very worried in her heart, and went to the study to find Mingqian.

Entering the study, Ming Qian was reading a book, and when he saw Pearl with a gloomy face, he immediately put down the book in his hand and asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? Why is your face so ugly? ”

"Your eldest brother rescued a woman who fell into the water outside, it belongs to Wang Er's family, and the people in the village said that your eldest brother broke the chastity of the family, and all the sisters-in-law came to me and asked me if there was any way to prevent Wang Auntie from entering our house."

Ming Qian stood up and said, "I'm more worried, I'll go to the front yard to have a look." After saying that, he went out, and Pearl couldn't do anything, and he didn't want to come out, so he asked Qingfeng to inquire about the situation, and after a while, he heard that the front yard was very noisy. Qingfeng didn't come back, Pearl didn't want to see it, she was pregnant! If you encounter a conflict, you are at great risk.

After an hour, Qingfeng came back, and as soon as he entered the door, he said, "Madam, it's not good, the people of the Wang family are making trouble, and they have to ask the uncle to marry their daughter." Both the lady and the old lady agreed. The eldest lady has no choice now. I heard that it was a flat wife. ”

"What? Flat wife? Pearl couldn't believe it, how could the Ming family do such a thing? What did the Shen family do? involves himself, such a big thing, and he hasn't even dealt with it yet.

Qingfeng continued, "The people of the Wang family are very fierce, and they brought more than twenty of them, and Mrs. Tai and the old lady have no choice. Our grandfather is also there, but in that case, there is no way. The hall in the front yard was smashed. ”

Pearl frowned, this matter was rarely settled like this, Pearl felt very aggrieved, thought about it, and said, "Have you heard when to do things?" How much is the dowry for? ”

"I heard that I asked for 50 taels of silver! I also want silk and jewelry. Qingfeng added,

Pearl felt that she was really panicked, her dowry was only a lot, and she agreed to such a condition because she was afraid of the people of the Wang family, besides, the Shen family didn't have much money! Pearl has made up her mind this time, and she will not pay a penny.

When Mingqian returns, he tells Pearl that they are about to have another sister-in-law. Ming Qian is obviously helpless, and Pearl is not pleasing to Ming Qian now.

Pearl happened to meet Wang Daya when she went to Ming Youcai's house to visit Xiao Qian's family, Pearl didn't know her, but she knew Pearl, and came forward to say to Pearl,

"Where are you going?"

"To my uncle's house." After that, Pearl didn't know what to say, Liu Zi behind her whispered to remind Pearl that this was the future sister-in-law, and Pearl understood and asked, "Is the dowry ready?" ”

"Oh, alright, almost."

Pearl smiled, then said, "I'll go first." ”

"Hey, okay."

Pearl thought in her heart, this Wang Daya is really strong enough, although she is not a fat person, but she has a big skeleton, which is also no way, she looks a little better than Shen's, but because of her strong figure, she can't like it. Seeing her talking to herself, she looked very embarrassed, and she didn't know what would happen when she entered the door.

The dowry of the Ming family was quickly sent over, and the money from the old man Ming and Ming Youshou was a golden hairpin, or a pearl to the Wang family! The bride price also includes other things, which are also good. Pearl looked at Shen's face even more ugly. I just raised a little meat, and now I see that I am losing weight. Seeing that Minghe's appearance is not bad, Pearl secretly scolded Minghe for being ruthless and unjust, of course, Pearl was even more dissatisfied with the old man of the Ming family and Ming Youshou and his wife, and recently used the excuse that the front yard was busy, so he confined the Ming Huairen child directly at home and did not let him go to the front yard.
