Chapter 54: Money, Money [Asking for Subscription]
At the front, the groom with a tall head in Malaysia was dressed in a big red robe, and the corners of his smiling mouth were about to burst, and he kept thanking those who sent blessings.
It was the first time for Fang Zheng to see the ancients getting married, so he was very curious and brought the lone wolf over, and also planned to take a wedding candy and make a celebration.
As a result, when Fang Zheng arrived at his side, the team stopped, but he had already arrived at the groom's official house.
The bridegroom hurriedly dismounted, happily greeted the sedan chair, and was about to open the curtain and carry his wife down.
At this moment, a hand stopped the sedan chair, it was a woman in a bridesmaid dress, the woman was not very beautiful, but there was a pride in her eyes.
The man knew that if he wanted to welcome his bride, he had to pass this hurdle, so he said with a smiling face: "Miss Li, raise your noble hand and let me take my lady in." ”
Li Guimi sneered: "It's okay to pick up people, but you haven't given the gift money for getting off the sedan chair yet." ”
The man suddenly realized, and quickly took out a spindle from his sleeve and handed it over, looking at the size of the silver, it should be five taels. This is not a small amount of money, enough for Founder to rent a house.
"This donor is quite rich." Fang Zheng muttered.
As a result, a young man on the side rolled his eyes and said, "You little monk is not a local, right?" If you were a local, you wouldn't be able to say such a thing. ”
Fang Zheng asked curiously, "Donor, what do you say?" ”
"What else can I say? Locals who don't know that the Cao family sold their houses and land in order to marry their daughters-in-law. I guess that the five taels of silver are already the last family money. ”
Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is it so expensive to marry a wife?" ”
The young man was a little less interested in watching the excitement, and a little more melancholy and sorrowful, and said, "Hey...... There's no way, women are very expensive now. Ordinary people, which wife can't rely on the efforts of three generations?
Not to mention anything else, to marry a wife, at least you have to have a car, a house, and a maid to serve you, right?
In this great city of Andong, a house now costs 18,000 taels of silver. This is still Andong City, if you go to the county town, or the imperial city, the price is even higher. Not to mention the efforts of three generations, the efforts of thirty generations may not be able to buy the next latrine.
In addition to these basics, there has to be a bride price, right?
The bride price of Andong City, eight thousand taels of silver, gold rings, gold earrings, and gold necklaces, so Feng Laiyi's bride has to have a set of marriages, right? These are not twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver together, don't even think about it.
I said before that the efforts of three generations must be in good family conditions, and even then they must be knocked out of the bone and sucked the marrow. ”
Fang Zheng gasped, he thought that only earthlings could do this high dowry and selling his daughter, but he never expected that this other world would be like this.
At this moment, I heard Li Guimi say disdainfully: "Five taels? Five taels of silver, you want to take my girlfriend away? Cao Gongzi, you can't help but take my girlfriend too lightly, right?
Not to mention anything else, in our place, whose family marries a daughter, and the money for getting off the sedan chair is not 66 taels of silver and 666 copper coins? ”
When Cao Min heard this, his face suddenly became a little ugly, and he asked for help to look at the people in the sedan chair through the gap in the curtain, but Li Guimi immediately blocked the curtain.
Cao Min looked around helplessly, although there were relatives on the side, but as soon as they saw Cao Min looking over, they avoided it.
Obviously, they all knew that Cao Min was going to borrow money.
Cao Min saw that no one was willing to face him, and he suddenly became more anxious, and his head was instantly covered with sweat, and he whispered: "Lady, you see, the auspicious time is coming, or ......."
The woman inside didn't feel sorry for Cao Min, but replied: "You can't bear 66 taels of silver?" ”
When Li Guimi heard this, he immediately raised his voice: "What's the matter?" Feel sorry for the 66 taels of silver?
I'll tell you, I've already helped Qiao'er feel sorry for you, 66 Dashun is the lowest price, I don't care if you want 88 taels of silver and 888 copper coins all the way, or 99 Dashun.
You don't want to think about how much it costs you to marry her, when others get married, it's a sedan chair carried by eight people, and you are only six people, which is an order of magnitude worse.
This hasn't passed the door yet, so it's a light one.
If this last sedan chair is married, you still have to bully Qiao'er every day?
I made you feel pain for your own good, but also for Qiao'er's good, so that you can understand how difficult it is to marry her, and you must know how to cherish and love her.
If Cao Min really loves her, I don't believe you can't take out these 66 taels of silver and 666 copper coins. ”
Qiao'er in the sedan chair said: "Cao Min! For 66 taels of silver, you let me wait here and be embarrassed with you? ”
Cao Min's face suddenly became bitter like an old bitter gourd, and he touched his sleeve, which was empty.
Someone on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and stepped forward and said: "Daughter of the Li family, on the day of people's great joy, don't make trouble for others." ”
"That's right, the ancients said, I'd rather destroy a temple than a marriage, get out of the way."
Cao Min cast a grateful gaze, thinking that Li Guimi would get out of the way because of these few words.
As a result, when Li Guimi heard this, he was immediately unhappy: "What are you people talking about?" Who is going to ruin someone's marriage? My best friend is getting married, and I'm happier than anyone else. But I can't watch my girlfriend suffer!
Besides, am I wrong?
What he got out of the car to ask for was a happy head, what happened if he gave five taels of silver? Five Finger Mountain, a slap?
Originally, the red envelope he gave when he came to greet his relatives was very small, one or two silver per person!
What about sending rice flowers?
I didn't say anything about that.
I thought he left the big red envelope when he got off the sedan chair, who knows, he will give five taels of silver?
I really didn't take my girlfriend seriously!
My best friend has married all the way away, and there is no minimum respect?
You are all relatives and neighbors of the Cao family, you speak for him, then my best friend is bullied, I don't speak for her, who speaks for her? ”
As soon as she said this, everyone around her immediately shut up.
Who would dare to talk nonsense at this time? It seems that the Cao guy is bullying the bride who has not passed the door with his neighbors and relatives.
What if the bride is really angry?
For a while, the situation froze.
Seeing this, Fang Zheng shook his head slightly, and the lone wolf sent a voice to Fang Zhengdao: "Master, this woman has been talking for a long time, doesn't it mean anything?" If she doesn't feed her, her best friend won't want to get married! ”
Fang Zheng was also speechless, when people get married, you can get a blessing from your best friend, and you will make a fortune here.
Is this a girlfriend, or a bandit with a girlfriend's brand?
Doesn't she know that every penny she squeezes out will eventually have to be repaid by her best friend?
The bride is also stupid, are you living with Cao Min and not with your best friend, if you step on Cao Min today, you will be happy in the future? If you don't show your husband in front of people, you still expect someone to take you seriously?
Cao Min finally spoke: "Sister Li, it's not that Cao someone didn't come up with these 66 taels of silver and 666 copper coins. But in order to marry a wife, there is really nothing left for the family to sell. These five taels of silver are already the last family fund, or I will give you this gown, can you raise your noble hand? ”
As he spoke, Cao Min was about to take off his groom outfit.
Li Guimi hurriedly shouted: "Who are you disgusting?!" ”
