Chapter 90: Satisfaction (2nd Update)
The eldest lady glared at Su Rong, temporarily suppressed the doubts in her heart, and told Su Rong about today's gift list.
Her eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, "Your gifts, the things that everyone gave are thicker than the gifts of your sisters, some are twice as thick, and some are two or three times thicker." ”
"It has nothing to do with me." Su Rong smiled, "It's all for the Protector Mansion and Zhou Gu." ”
The eldest lady reprimanded her dissatisfiedly, "It's not all, even if there is no such marriage, your gifts will be thicker than the gifts of your sisters, your father and me, and your eldest brother's face, isn't it called face?" ”
Who doesn't know in the entire Jiangning County that the people in the Mansion all favor Su Rong.
Su Rong smiled and grabbed the eldest lady's arm, "I said it wrong, what my mother said is very true." ”
Anyway, it's not for her, she hasn't liked her since she was a child.
"These gifts, as they are for you, I will have them put into your treasury." The eldest lady pushed her away, "As for the gift money on the account, I will help you collect it first, so that you don't spend it indiscriminately." ”
Su Rong had no opinion, "Okay." ”
The eldest lady looked at her strangely, "You used to pick two taels of silver with me, but now you have so many tens of thousands of taels of silver, but you didn't say that you took it?" ”
Su Rong naturally didn't say that he was not short of silver now, but only asked, "If I tell you that I want to take it myself, will you allow it?" ”
"No, I can't hold it for you." The eldest lady was really afraid that she would lose, so she gave Huo Huo no in a blink of an eye.
"Isn't that all there is to it? It's useless for me to say it, so why say it. Su Rong shrugged.
The eldest lady stopped doubting for a moment, and muttered, "Yes." ”
Zhou Gu walked into the East Cross Courtyard and heard footsteps, Wang Ma glanced out, and immediately smiled and said, "Madam, Miss Seven, Little Master Zhou is here." ”
The eldest lady was stunned, "Why didn't he go to rest?" ”
As he spoke, he looked at Su Rong.
Su Rong didn't know where to know, and shook his head.
The eldest lady saw that she was not sitting properly, and her hair was a little messy, and whispered, "You go and clean up, and I'll go out and have a look." ”
Su Rong nodded.
The eldest lady stood up, walked out of the back room, and came to the painting hall.
Zhou Gu stepped into the threshold and bowed his hand to the eldest lady, "Aunt." ”
The eldest lady smiled kindly, "I'm tired today, and you've drunk a lot of wine, why haven't you gone to rest?" Come to talk to Xiao Qi? ”
There are many guests today, Zhou Gu and Xie Lin are the princes and grandsons of the Gaomen Mansion, and they are distinguished guests, and many people are toasting around the two, and both of them have drunk a lot.
Zhou Gu shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm not too tired, I found a travelogue from the study in the morning, I didn't read two pages, it was very interesting, I was really worried, so I came to look for it." ”
After he finished speaking, he saw the travelogue on the table, and reached out to pick it up, "This is it." ”
The eldest lady smiled, "I'm almost done here, are you here to see Xiaoqi?" I happen to have something to tell you as well. ”
Zhou Gu originally planned to take the travelogue and leave, but when he heard the words, he said, "Aunt, please speak." ”
The eldest lady motioned for him to sit down, and she sat down with her, "That's the case, the congratulatory gift from the Jiangzhou Thorn History Mansion is extremely generous. She said what she had sent, and said: "There is a gift for you in this, you confiscated it last time, Jiang Sheng and Mrs. took Xiao Qi and Lu as a congratulatory gift, and sent it together, so I accepted it unceremoniously." Virtuous nephew, look at your share of apology......"
Zhou Gu refused, "Since it is a congratulatory gift, my aunt just accepts it." No need to give it to me. ”
The eldest lady looked at him, "But this gift is really too thick, even if ordinary people give their daughter's dowry, they will not be so thick, although I collected it for Xiao Qi, but I also know in my heart that it is because of you, Jiangzhou Thorn Shifu is so bleeding." ”
Zhou Gu didn't care, "Aunt doesn't have to feel unsteady, just accept it steadily, Jiangzhou Thorn Mansion is not to be afraid." ”
The eldest lady looked at Zhou Gu's expression, and when she saw that he said that he was talking about the Jiangzhou Thorn Mansion, she didn't take it seriously, and she didn't look at it in her eyes, she put her mind at ease, "If you don't want it, then I will give Xiao Qi the treasury, and it will be her dowry in the future." ”
The implication is that the Taishou Mansion does not want it, and the gift to Su Rong is for Su Rong.
Zhou Gu coughed lowly, "Auntie will arrange it." ”
"It's just this thing, there's nothing else, I'll call Xiao Qi out." The eldest lady stood up with a smile.
Zhou Gu also stood up and stopped the eldest lady, "Aunt doesn't need to call her, she is also tired for a day, let her rest, I will go back to read this book." ”
The eldest lady looked at the book in his hand, "It's okay." ”
Zhou Gu took the travelogue and left the East Cross Courtyard.
The eldest lady went back to the back room, and when she saw Su Rong sitting on the chair and didn't get up to clean it up at all, she glared at Su Rong, "Don't forget it if you're too lazy." ”
With such an unobtrusive temperament, she really doubts, will she be able to please her husband in the future? Zhou Gu has been here for nearly a month, although Su Xing deliberately let them keep their distance, but after dinner, they also left time for the two to walk and talk to cultivate their feelings, and the two of them saw each other almost every day, and for a month, they didn't feel the slightest stickiness. If it weren't for the fact that the two of them got along quite harmoniously, Zhou Gu found her twice because Su Rong was tired of learning the rules and asked her to be more lenient with Su Rong, and she suspected that these two people would not have the slightest affection.
What was written in those painting books, a look, it was love at first sight, when she saw one, she said a word, she was nervous and shy for a long time, she didn't see it at all from Su Rong and Zhou Gu.
Is she getting old, or are young people now not indulging in love? In her opinion, neither. I'm afraid that these two children didn't open up at all.
Su Rong explained, "I was going to get up and clean up, but when I heard that he was here to get the book, I knew that he didn't plan to stay, I guess he was tired for a day, and I wanted to go back to lie on the bed and read, after all, I was going to stay here and sit on a chair to read, how tired it was." ”
The eldest lady suddenly said, "That's the reason." ”
Several people continued to check the accounts.
It took more than an hour to check, and then I finished checking, seeing that the sky was already dark, the eldest lady hung her shoulders, although tired, but her heart was satisfied, "This time I don't worry too much about your dowry, with these gifts, it is enough to make your dowry look better." ”
Su Rong reminded her, "Mother, except for the gift of the Jiangzhou Thorn Mansion, you will have to return the gift in the future." ”
The implication is that these gifts are all given to her in the treasury, and in the future, the family will return the gifts to others, and if you want to go to the middle government, you still have to pay out of your pocket.
"You don't have to worry about this." The eldest lady was very happy in short, "When your eldest brother is in high school, there will be another congratulatory gift, and then you and your sisters will marry one after another, although you have to prepare a dowry, but there is also a dowry to receive it, and our family will continue to have happy events in the next few years." ”
That is to say, in the next few years, there will be no outward and some in, and it will be flat.
Su Rong thought about it and immediately admired.
In the evening, the kitchen boiled porridge and made a few side dishes, and the eldest lady knew that everyone was tired, so she ordered that there was no need to go to the front hall to have dinner together, and let the kitchen send it to their respective yards.
The eldest lady didn't leave, she stayed here with Su Rong, and when the kitchen brought food to eat, Su Taishou also came over.
Su Taishou drank a lot at noon, but he drank well, sobered up before dinner, entered the East Cross Courtyard, and saw Su Rong sitting there lazily, so he looked at her with a smile, "Xiao Qi has finally grown up, your mother must be very happy." ”
Su Rong looked at the smile on Su Taishou's face, and wanted to ask him, "Now that I've grown up, there are some things you should tell me?" But the afterglow swept to the eldest lady and swallowed the words back.
Su Taishou was very happy today, turned his head and asked the eldest lady with a smile: "Madam, is there a "Wushan Map" in the gift received today?" ”
The eldest lady nodded, "Yes." ”
Su Taishou looked at her, "Took it to the warehouse?" ”
The eldest lady knew the meaning of the strings when she heard the sound, and immediately said with a straight face: "If you take away Xiao Qi's private treasury, don't worry about it, and take it away for her as her dowry in the future." ”
Su Taishou was helpless, "Oh, she is a child, she won't appreciate it, she will only spoil good things, what to do for her?" ”
The doctor doesn't care about this, "Valuable good things, whether you appreciate them or not, just be valuable." ”
Su Taishou: "......"
He was itchy in his heart, and turned to Su Rong, "Xiao Qi, you give that picture to Dad!" ”
Su Rong smiled at Su Taishou, "Okay, but if my father wants my things, he has to exchange them for things of equal value." ”
Su Taishou glared, "Unfilial." ”
Su Rong shrugged, "I want to be a good boy who listens to my mother." ”
Su Taishou: "......"
The eldest lady was very satisfied, reached out and touched Su Rong's head, and boasted: "This year is a little better than in previous years." ”
Mrs. Su was dumbfounded, "I don't have any good things in the warehouse, you give it to me first, and when I have good things, I will exchange them with you." ”
"Nope." Su Rong refused simply.
Su Taishou was annoyed and turned to the eldest lady, "Look at the good daughter you taught!" ”
The eldest lady glared at him, "The daughter I taught is very good, I don't need you to say it." ”
Su Taishou: "......"
This one or two, he really has no status at home.
Have a great weekend, see you tomorrow~
