Chapter Ninety-Seven: She Wants to Be Mrs. Xiucai
Don't talk about people outside the house, the Mu family inside the house was also scared, even Mu Xiwen was no exception.
Where did the eight hundred and eighty-eight taels come from? She's not going to use all the money from the bronze sale for a wedding, is she?
Mu Yue stabilized his trembling hands and said as calmly as possible, "What...... Where did you get so much silver? Ziyin, you have just become a showman, where did you get all this silver? ”
"It was given by some landlords in Tai'an Mansion." This is true, but they only gave away a hundred taels of silver, after all, Xiucai is not so important in their eyes.
"Oh, you've just gotten married, and you'll have plenty of money to use in the future. Besides, you should go to the academy in a month, how can you be so extravagant now? ”
Wei Ziyin looked up at Wei An, and Wei An'an persuaded him with understanding: "It's okay, there is not much silver here, it is all Ziyin's intention, you can accept it." ”
In his opinion, eight hundred and eighty-eight taels is nothing, that is, eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight is less. His little master's marriage is so shabby, he is already very distressed.
Wei An's words surprised everyone inside and outside the room. I can't see that this little old man who is not good-looking actually said that eight hundred and eighty-eight taels is nothing, could it be that this uncle and grandfather of Xiucai are very rich?
The more active ones are already thinking about how to build a relationship with Wei An.
Liu Huiniang, who was sitting in the back, pinched her palms fiercely, and the unwilling jealousy in her heart became more and more intense. She suddenly stood up with a thud and walked towards Wei Ziyin with a graceful posture.
"Brother Ziyin, it is really a blessing for my cousin to marry my cousin. Seeing that you are so attentive, I, as a cousin, am also relieved. She covered her handkerchief and scratched her head in front of Wei Ziyin, and when she raised her eyes, she found that everyone else was looking at her with a dull expression.
Oh, be mesmerized by her! Her appearance today doesn't dump Mu Xiwen's tomboy for hundreds of streets?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but raise a bright smile.
"Poof, hahaha-" The people who were facing Liu Huiniang outside the house couldn't help laughing.
Such an abnormal behavior made Liu Huiniang's face smile, and she turned her head to look at Mu Qiaoniang like a plea for help.
"Hahaha - cousin, you have black ash on your face and teeth." Seeing Liu Huiniang's appearance, everyone else forcibly held back their laughter, but Mu Jianyong clapped his hands and called out.
"Oh, I'm sorry cousin, I forgot that my handkerchief had just been wiped over the stove." Mu Xing'er apologized on the side, with a well-behaved expression on her face.
"Dead girl!" scolded viciously, and Liu Huiniang retreated embarrassedly to wash her face with Mu Qiaoniang's support.
The Liu family scolded and left, while the others happily continued to watch this rare hiring process.
Under Wei Ziyin's tough attitude, the dowry inventory was over, and the Mu family began to distribute candy to the onlookers. The children cheered and hugged Mu Xiwen's leg and didn't let go, even the adults almost laughed.
After all, people in the past were not so generous, that is, they would give candy to the onlookers. And this candy and fruit are not cheap, and you can also put them away to visit relatives during the New Year.
At the end of the appointment, Wei Ziyin returned home, the Mu family counted the dowry with a rare face, the villagers chatted happily about the dowry and dowry they heard today, and the children were happily eating candy. Except for the Liu family, everyone is peaceful and happy.
A few children chased each other and ran around, while the adults watched from behind with doting faces.
"Today's Master Wei is really generous, alas, I knew that he was so capable, and he should have married my family Yingying to him in the first place."
"Who said no, I was poor and white, and I couldn't even take out a tael of silver, but who knew that today I actually took eight hundred and eighty-eight taels of dowry. Miss Arwen's life is really good, but Wei Xiucai is still blind and never gives up. ”
"Miss Arwen is not bad, but she is a female owner, and she is not bad for money. They got married seven days later, right? I'm going to have to have a good meal, it's sure to be the good things we don't want to eat on weekdays. ”
"I'll go too, if I'm not embarrassed, I want to go back to my mother's house and call my mother over for a meal."
Several people shook their heads and nodded for a while, and walked in front of the Wang family with shocked faces.
At the door, Wang Peiyun was helping Shen Jingchen to go out to bask in the sun. Hearing the content of the villagers' chat, her footsteps couldn't help but stagnate.
Seven days later, Wei Ziyin and Mu Xiwen got married?
She subconsciously bit her lip, her lips were all white, and she still didn't know anything.
"Miss Wang, what's wrong?" Sensing Wang Peiyun's distraction, Shen Jingchen asked with concern.
"Oh, nothing." Shen Jingchen's words brought her back to her senses, and a look of remorse flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly helped the other party to move on.
"I feel that my feet have almost recovered, Miss Wang, when will it be convenient for you to write to Miss Yi in Tai'an Mansion?"
Wang Peiyun didn't want to write much, she wanted to ask Shen Jingchen to stay in Donghe Village for a while longer. He hasn't fallen in love with her yet, so he's gone, who knows if there will be a chance to see her again in this life.
It was fateful fate for God to send such a noble man to her, how could she be willing to miss it in vain?
But even if Shen Jingchen's tone was as gentle as ever, she could still vaguely hear the anxiety in it. If she continues to drag on time, I'm afraid the other party will be disgusted.
"Shen Gongzi, I'm a doctor, have you forgotten? Your feet still need to be cultivated for a while. But since you are in a hurry to find your relatives, so let's do it, I will write a letter to Miss Yi San in five days, and I will receive a reply from that side in about seven days, how about it? ”
Why seven days later, Wang Peiyun can't tell what he thinks in his heart, probably, he wants to make the obsession in his heart for many years have a complete ending.
"Okay, thank you, Miss Wang."
Wang Peiyun is waiting for an ending, while Liu Huiniang thinks that she wants to create an ending by herself.
After washing her face, she hid in the house, and the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became.
Mu Qiaoniang pushed open the door and walked out gently. "Hui Niang, what do you think?"
"Auntie, don't you want Wei Ziyin to be your son-in-law? If I marry him, I will become Mrs. Xiucai, and you will become Xiucai's mother-in-law. Who would dare to look down on us and laugh at us? When the time comes, who will still live here, we will move directly to the city! ”
Mu Qiaoniang's eyes kept flashing, obviously very excited.
"But that Wei Ziyin said that Mu Xiwen would not marry, and Mu Xiwen is your cousin after all, if it is too obvious, it will not be easy for our family to do it."
Liu Huiniang unwillingly grabbed the skirt on her legs, "A-Niang, what do you say to do?" Where am I worse than Mu Xiwen's little calamity? That little calamity star doesn't know what kind of ecstasy soup has been poured into everyone over the years, obviously she is a disaster star who causes trouble, and she can still make these villagers listen to her like this! ”
Mu Qiaoniang's eyes flashed, "Wei Ziyin is a scholar, and everyone who reads has a reputation. If Mu Xiwen's little disaster star is ruined by someone else's innocence, and Wei Ziyin takes advantage of you, then he will have to marry you. ”
