Chapter 168: Two Clearings
Jiang Zhixia naturally didn't know that there was a girl who misunderstood her relationship with Chu Mufeng, and she was crying with grief.
When she got home, she started to get busy.
On the third day of the ninth month, Chu Tiankuo brought a box and handed it to Jiang Zhixia.
After Jiang Zhixia opened it in confusion, he found that there was a thick stack of silver tickets inside.
She was taken aback, and was about to return it to Chu Tiankuo, but she was stopped.
"This is 40,000 taels of silver money drawn from the flowing water in Zhu Cuilou. I know that you gave me the silver ticket here that time, and after I went to Yazhou to buy cotton flowers, there was not much silver left. The thousands of taels of bonus silver tickets you took last time were probably used to buy dowries, right? I want to give more, but I'm afraid that you will excuse me for a long time. This silver ticket plus the dowry I gave you before is a total of 60,000 taels. You add it to the pressure box money, and take a six-six or six good meaning. ”
Chu Tiankuo explained carefully.
He saw that Jiang Zhixia really didn't agree and wanted to open his mouth to refuse, so he stopped and said, "Don't refuse." Zhu Cuilou is yours. This is also your own money. And this is a good intention, and I will definitely accept it. ”
For fear that Jiang Zhixia would not accept it, he even became serious.
Jiang Zhixia saw that Chu Tiankuo looked like he couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to accept it first----- big deal and deduct it from the bonus silver ticket later.
In the next two days, Chu Tiankuo didn't send anything over. He just came over to see Jiang Zhixia every day, and after saying some words, he continued to be busy.
Since the sixth day of the first month of September, Jiang Zhixia has honestly stayed at home and no longer goes out.
Mrs. Lin often came over to help, arranging for her subordinates to prepare all kinds of things for marriage and other trivial matters.
When Mrs. Lin came to help in the third year of junior high school, Jiang Zhixia remembered what happened at the flower viewing banquet of the eldest princess of Chengping the day before.
So, she couldn't help but ask Mrs. Lin, why did she accept such a valuable gift at that time?
"You kid, Tiankuo is not wrong. He said that you are extremely intelligent and sincere, but you think less about other people's intentions. ”
When Mrs. Lin heard Jiang Zhixia's question, she didn't answer immediately, but joked with a smile.
Jiang Zhixia lowered his head embarrassedly. She really doesn't understand the subtext. You can't learn this.
"You saved the little boy of the eldest princess's mansion that day, and everyone saw this in their eyes. If the princess's mansion doesn't express it, it's extremely bad for the reputation of the princess's mansion. That's why in the hall, I asked you to thank you from the princess's mansion. That is also the reputation of the princess's mansion for being kind and rewarding. ”
Mrs. Lin first explained that she asked Jiang Zhixia to accept her thanks in front of everyone.
Jiang Zhixia nodded knowingly.
If you don't repay your kindness, it's not a good reputation for anyone. No wonder the eldest princess's mansion is so persistent.
"You are not short of money---- not to mention anything else, the bride price is not a small amount. However, it is a fact that you are not from an obvious background. ”
Mrs. Lin said apologetically to Jiang Zhixia.
Talking about other people's shortcomings in front of them like this, Rao is her, and she is a little embarrassed.
"That's true." Jiang Zhixia nodded again. This is indeed a fact, and there is nothing to tell.
Mrs. Lin smiled with satisfaction when she saw Jiang Zhixia's pampered and unfazed appearance.
"So, I originally thought that I would let the eldest princess reward you with some jewelry that you can't get usually, so that you can be more decent and beautiful when you get married. Raise your worth. ”
Seeing Jiang Zhixia listening carefully and carefully, Mrs. Lin couldn't help but say something in more detail.
"Tiankuo and Lao Chu naturally don't mind these identity things. However, in the future, you will become the lady of the three grades, and you will always have to go out. The family members of these officials will also be a little short-sighted. If the eldest princess raises your value, it will naturally make people look up to you. So, I asked for this reward for you. ”
"Thank you, Madame, for taking care of me." Jiang Zhixia said gratefully.
When she didn't think of these things, Mrs. Lin thought of them all and helped her do them.
Although it is a love house and Wu, but the real beneficiary is her.
"You don't have to be polite with me." Mrs. Lin first replied with a smile.
Instead, she became serious again.
"I just didn't expect that the eldest princess would want to repay this kindness so much. Not only did they agree to give you jewelry to make your face. Also come with the eldest lady to your wedding. even gave you an inestimable phoenix crown, and asked the Shangyi Bureau to make a new wedding dress for you. ”
Jiang Zhixia nodded. She didn't expect that the eldest princess would do so many things.
"However," Mrs. Lin said in a deep voice, "this matter is probably like this." ”
Jiang Zhixia looked at Mrs. Lin puzzled. Didn't understand what she meant.
"The eldest princess gave you face like this to the world, which means that this life-saving grace is over. In the future, you can't use this life-saving grace to ask for retribution. ”
Jiang Zhixia was really surprised this time.
Naturally, she didn't mean to ask for retribution. However, the princess's mansion was afraid that she would do this, but she didn't know how to say it, why are there so many twists and turns?
The nobles in the capital are really full of food and have nothing to do, so they are thinking about their hearts there.
When Mrs. Lin saw the surprised Jiang Zhixia, her serious face couldn't help laughing, and she explained her doubts more carefully.
"It stands to reason that with the favor of the eldest princess, the ladies of those noble and noble families will want to associate with you. However, you are about to get married, and you really came to give you makeup and gifts, is there no noble girl? ”
Jiang Zhixia thought about it carefully, it was true.
That is, on the third day of junior high school, Lin Qiushui sent a maid over to give a makeup gift, only saying that she lived in Chengenhou Mansion, and it was not so convenient to go out.
This is one, and the others are not. That is, the neighbors in the alley just sent congratulatory gifts.
"They're fine." Mrs. Lin said with a smile, "They inquired about such a big battle in the Princess's Mansion, and they knew that the Princess's Mansion wanted to take advantage of this time to repay the life-saving grace at one time." Therefore, I found that there is not much value in associating with you. ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Lin smiled bitterly again.
Originally, I thought that instead of charging a huge amount of silver tickets, I simply accepted two pieces of jewelry, which was also to help them establish a backer.
Unexpectedly, the princess's mansion was so sensible, and she took this opportunity to report En directly with great fanfare.
Also, the eldest princess of Chengping has gone through three dynasties after all.
This life-saving grace is forgotten. The favor is cleared. In the future, you don't have to count on that. ”
Mrs. Lin finally summed up and said.
"Okay. I know. Thank you aunt for taking care of me so much. ”
Jiang Zhixia said gratefully. When she didn't understand, Mrs. Lin thought about helping them fight for the greatest rights.
"I didn't take it too seriously. Saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter. It's always good to save people. ”
Jiang Zhixia explained what he thought.
"It's best if you have this idea." Mrs. Lin said with relief.
Since then, the two of them have stopped mentioning this matter, but just concentrated on preparing for the wedding.
