Chapter 27: Change
When Mrs. Feng came to the door, Mrs. Lu was discussing with the third mother-in-law about Lu Ming's dowry, in fact, they had discussed this matter more than once for a while.
When Lu Mingxi married the Shao family before, he took away one-third of the dowry left by the Wei family that year.
At this point, because of the pressure of the Wei family, Lu Xianzong also doted on his daughter at that time, so he didn't feel sorry for Lu Mingxi, Lu Mingxi's dowry is within his hands, and if he remarries, it can be regarded as decent to have this dowry.
But not enough.
The third mother-in-law still felt that it was not enough, so she discussed with Mrs. Lu in private: "I still have some private money at the bottom of the box, I think, I can't do anything else, but after all, the children call me grandmother now, since I am their grandmother, of course, I can't take advantage of the children in vain." I always have to do something for them, so that I can feel at ease. ”
What kind of silver can an old man save in a lifetime?
Back then, the third mother-in-law lost her son because of Lu Xianzong, and she has been relying on the help of the clan in the clan all these years, and that ancestral property is really not worth anything.
Mrs. Lu's heart was hot, and at the same time, she was a little unbearable: "You always have to keep some silver for you, in fact, this little bit that your old man took out is nothing to Ming Xi." ”
Lu Mingxi has a good business, her pharmacy and silk shop are very profitable, and there are many industries around her over the years.
Where can I see the idea of subsidy for the third mother-in-law?
Although Mrs. Lu also knew that the Lu family's sisters and brothers were very right-minded, she was still reluctant to let the old man take out his own family resources to supplement the children.
The third mother-in-law also knew Mrs. Lu's kindness, and couldn't help but laugh: "You, you, I know you are for my good." However, people's hearts are flesh and blood, and I have been watching coldly for more than half a year, and these three children are all the best. It's also really close to me, what do people want when they're old? Isn't it just to have a harmonious descendant and a lively family? I've lived to this age, and I really don't want to keep counting, so that's fine. ”
The old lady had already said this, and Mrs. Lu also knew in her heart that the old lady was iron-hearted, so she nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then I won't persuade you." But don't worry, if these children dare to be unfilial to you in the future, I will definitely poke them in the back. In addition, I cherish this child, I know how to advance and retreat, I also like her, I will add another thousand taels of silver in private, this is also a piece of my heart. ”
One thousand taels is not a small amount.
In the Lu family, because of the successive separation of one Lu Xianzong and one Lu Ziqian, the money-making industry in the clan has been reduced by more than half, and the current patriarch has not been able to support this family with great difficulty.
Mrs. Lu's own daughter got married, and the dowry was only three thousand taels of silver.
So Mrs. Lu is now taking out a thousand taels, which is actually equivalent to marrying half of her daughter.
The third mother-in-law shook her hand: "Okay! Good! Good! Then I won't be polite to you, the children are all good, don't worry, they know it in their hearts, and they will never let us down. ”
The two chattered and discussed, what should be added to Lu Mingxi, silver is silver, but when a woman marries, it is not just silver, there are many things.
After discussing for a while, there was a sudden announcement from outside that Mrs. Feng was here.
The third mother-in-law and Mrs. Lu glanced at each other, and they couldn't help laughing.
The Feng family's attitude is good, everything is discussed with the Lu family these days, and they have not neglected a little because Lu Ming is married for the second time, with this attitude, there is really nothing to say about the marriage between the two parties.
The third mother-in-law smiled: "Please come in." ”
When Mrs. Feng entered the door, she found that Mrs. Lu was also there, and first greeted the third mother-in-law, and then exchanged a few words with Mrs. Lu.
Mrs. Lu smiled: "We are talking about you." ”
"Oh?" Mrs. Feng sighed in her heart, she didn't know why, she originally planned to get straight to the point, but she couldn't say it for a while, so she asked with a smile: "What are you talking about me?" ”
Mrs. Lu glanced at the third mother-in-law, took the handkerchief and pressed the corners of her mouth: "Say hello, say that the Feng family knows the etiquette, and treats people kindly, and we are sorry to marry in the past, we are all at ease." ”
The burden in Mrs. Feng's heart became heavier.
She glanced at Mrs. Lu and the third mother-in-law uneasily, as if a mountain was pressing on top of her head.
But no matter how difficult it is, as the head wife of the Feng family, she represents not only herself, but also the Feng family, so there is no personal feeling to talk about this matter.
After a moment of silence, she whispered, "I'm afraid this family matter will have to be discussed again." ”
The room fell silent, almost silent.
The third mother-in-law and Mrs. Lu were both stunned, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
With such a smooth family affair, the two sides hit it off, how can something go wrong?
It took Mrs. Lu a long time before she found her voice: "Mrs. Feng, you, what do you mean by this?" ”
There is actually a friendship between the two, and they usually speak with a bit of affection.
But at this moment, not only Mrs. Feng represents the Feng family, but Mrs. Lu also represents the Lu family, and the Feng family is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Lu family by doing this.
In this way, the Lu family was roasted on the fire.
is about to get married, the Feng family has brought matchmakers to the Lu family one by one, who doesn't know that the two families already have the intention of getting married?
At this juncture, this trick actually came!
This is asking for the woman's life!
The third mother-in-law's face sank even more directly: "Mrs. Feng, you are a scholarly family, scholars do things, you should be sensible, you should be trustworthy, now you are doing this, are you bullying our Lu family?!" ”
The words are heavy.
Mrs. Feng's face turned pale, and after half a sound, she sighed deeply: "Don't worry, you two, let's take a look at this first." ”
As she spoke, she handed over a few pieces of red paper in her hand.
The third mother-in-law and Mrs. Lu were still angry at first, but after opening it and looking at it, they couldn't help but change color, frowning and asking, "This is."
"This is the birth date of the two of them, you two have also seen it, there is nothing wrong with the two of them, it is good to be separated, but" Mrs. Feng's voice was a little tight, and her tone was a little heavy: "But when you get together, it is the big murderer." Ah Yao is indeed sincere, at the beginning, Lord Qin of Qin Tianjian tested it, but he refused to give up, and begged me to find a few more to test, and the results were all so. ”
