The four members of the Jiang family had been listening to the movement in the house, and when they heard someone say that they wanted to report to the official, they all panicked.

Jiang Fuwang patted his thigh and shouted, "Why don't you go out and have a look, you really want them to report to the official?" This matter is going to the government, do you want the future of Chengye? ”

Li Shi was panicked and anxious, "What should I do, how can the second child be so ruthless, and really go to report to the official?" ”

Zhang scolded, "You don't look at how dark your heart is, and you're embarrassed to say the second child, the second child is forced to be anxious." ”

A few people were discussing in the house, and they definitely couldn't make trouble to the government, and they had to go out to block it when they saw that the situation was wrong.

Xiuxiu rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Daddy, since you can't find anyone from the Jiang family, let's go to the school and ask, isn't there a child in their family who is studying?" It's definitely in the academy. ”

Wen smiled, "It's still a smart girl, let's go to the academy to find someone." ”

When a few people inside heard this, their souls were about to be gone, and if they really let the people of the Chengye Academy know, this matter would be troublesome.

Mr. Xuetang attaches great importance to conduct, and if the mother who undertakes the business is misbehaving, he may not be allowed to study directly.

Li was about to go out to stop him, when the village chief came, Jiang He immediately said, "Village chief, you have to help you make decisions about this." ”

The village chief sighed, "Your own sister-in-law, you should understand her broken mouth, let's not talk about this for now, there is another thing you should know." ”

A few people looked at each other, and Fang said, "Let's go and talk about it elsewhere, let's do this first, and then talk about it." She also saw that the village chief also had a big deal here, and besides, the village chief should still be facing them, so he wouldn't come to help the Jiang family out of the siege.

They went to the village chief's house together, and after sitting down, Jiang He asked, "Village chief, but what's the big deal?" ”

The village chief sighed, "A few days ago, I heard that the Cheng family and Hexiang were discussing marriage, and I was also happy, these two children are quite compatible." ”

Jiang Cheng's family is also here, listening to the village chief's words, he smiled a little embarrassed, he is going to marry Hexiang, and he can be with her in the future, great.

Fang said, "There is indeed such a thing, could it be that something went wrong?" ”

The village chief looked at Jiang Chengjia, and he couldn't bear to speak, but he still had to say, "What is the dowry that you agreed with the Bai family?" ”

Jiang He replied, "Five taels of silver, I don't want anything on the side, but we will prepare what should be given, and we will officially marry in a few days." ”

The village chief raised his hand, "I'm afraid that this matter is not so smooth, the Bai family has no crooked intentions, and I also hope that the child will live well, but yesterday Hexiang's eldest brother came to my house, let me go and tell you about it, to increase the dowry." ”

Several people were stunned, and Wen asked, "Dare to ask the village chief, how much dowry does the Bai family want to add?" ”

The village chief is a little difficult to speak, "The silver alone costs thirty taels, the bedding boxes and cages are arranged, and the head and face also need two sets, you tell me how this is possible, so I really can't tell you about this matter, the Chengjia and Hexiang are both grown up by me, they are both good children, and I am happy to be married now, but this sudden increase in the dowry is really ......"

Wen was also shocked, "Why is the Bai family suddenly like this?" Obviously, it has been said before. ”

The village chief shook his head, "I don't know about this, I know that you are here today, and the Bai family asked me to tell you again, it is estimated that it is not good to say it in person, what should happen to this matter is decided by the two of you, I am a messenger, you go home and discuss it." ”

Jiang He slapped the table, "It's really unruly, if the Bai family wants so many dowries, they should make it clear when they discuss marriage, why they are already about to propose, and they suddenly regret it, what should they do now?" ”

He was in a hurry, they had to borrow a little from the Fang family for the previous five taels of silver, but now they want thirty taels, where should they come from? I'm afraid that this family affair will not be successful, but at this time, where can I find a suitable family affair?

Fang Chengdong didn't speak all the time, and finally spoke, "Let's go home and think about it, so we won't bother here." ”

The family went back dejectedly, and Chengdong above the road said, "This thing is too strange, the relatives of the Cheng family and Xue'er have gone wrong beforehand, and I don't believe it if no one makes trouble." ”

Wen nodded, "I think so too, Jiang He, I'm afraid that this matter will have nothing to do with the Jiang family." ”

Jiang He didn't speak, in fact, he thought the same way, how could there be such a coincidence? Obviously, they were all smooth before, but suddenly that's it.

"I'll go to the Bai family later to ask, it's too conspicuous to go at this time, if it really can't be done, it won't hurt the reputation of the two children."

Fang nodded and agreed with Jiang He's statement, Jiang Chengjia had been walking behind dejectedly, she pulled him to walk faster, "Don't worry, let's discuss this matter carefully, there can still be a way." ”

Back at home, Jiang Jingxue hurriedly asked, "Did you figure it out?" What's going on? ”

Fang Chengdong entered the upper room with a dark face, everyone followed behind, Fang said, "If the Jiang family doesn't come out, let's talk about it another day, the Bai family has also gone wrong, and they want a dowry of thirty taels." ”

Jiang Jingxue was so shocked that she couldn't speak, and it took a while before she spoke, "How can this be ......?"

She looked at her eldest brother, who looked like a frosted eggplant at this time, probably because she was afraid that this family affair would not succeed.

Fang Chengdong said, "It stands to reason that when a family is in trouble, they should help each other, we will not sit idly by and ignore the family affairs of the Cheng family and Xue'er, five taels of silver, even if it is ten taels of silver, we can take it out, and if we can't take it out, we can make it up, but now the Bai family wants thirty taels, and Xue'er has no whereabouts here, I am afraid that this matter has to be thought about, if you really marry a daughter-in-law to the Cheng family, this family will be hollowed out, and then we can't help you repair the house, and there is really no such thing, how can there be a girl from the Zhuang family who asks for thirty taels?" ”

Everyone didn't speak, in fact, they all knew this truth, Liu and Lin were very anxious, if this matter should come down, the family would have to live a hard life for a few years.

Liu thought again, Qingman is thirteen, and he will talk about family affairs in a few years, and when the time comes, he can't get a dowry, which girl is willing to marry?

Jiang He and the Fang clan were silent at this moment, Jiang Jingxue looked at this and that, and chose not to speak for the time being.

Fang Changwen said, "Jiang He, thirty taels is really a lion's mouth, and we have also met the girl of the Bai family, which is indeed very good, but the family is dragging down, and it is indeed difficult to say kiss, how can it be possible to ask for thirty taels of dowry?" To put it mildly, thirty taels is that even the daughters-in-law in the town can marry, but there is really no need for that. ”

Jiang Jingxue was very harsh when she heard these words, how could the girl be like she was bought? It's uncomfortable to listen to.
