Chapter Eighty-Five: Such a Big Brother
After returning to the West Chamber, He Laosan and Chen spoke, and the latter frowned slightly.
In fact, after recuperating for half a month, her body was almost better, but several children let her recuperate and recuperate.
She was a little dissatisfied with the old lady who only discussed Dabao's marriage with He Laosan, but the education she received since she was a child made her unable to say anything dissatisfied, so she only frowned and whispered: "Is the eldest sister a matchmaker?" ”
He Laosan has a lot of respect for Aunt He, and when he heard this, he was a little embarrassed, and sighed: "The eldest sister is too...... It's a good intention! ”
He Zao raised his eyebrows and did not make a sound.
He Chun'er frowned very tightly, in the end, he was the eldest brother of a mother's compatriots, even if he hated iron and steel, he didn't want him to make trouble in life events, thinking that He Zao had many ideas, so he turned his face and asked her: "Zao'er, do you say that the separation of our grandmother is true or false?" Really divide our family? ”
Everyone else also looked at He Zao.
He Zao smiled slightly: "Splitting up is a big deal, it's impossible if our master doesn't nod!" I also asked our grandmother specifically, but our grandmother didn't give a real letter in the end! ”
She didn't point it out, but He Chun'er already understood: "That milk just wants us to get the dowry, right, how much do our grandma and aunt each get?" How much will we take if it is a hundred taels? There was dissatisfaction on her face: "Isn't this digging a pit for us to jump!" Besides, since the family surnamed Zhu dares to ask for a dowry of one hundred taels with a lion open mouth, it can be seen that the person is not successful, so don't say anything about the girl of the Zhu family......"
She was reasonable, and He nodded a long time ago: "I think so too, just pull my father out first, and wait for our master to talk about it when he is at home." ”
He Laosan is an honest man, he didn't think about it at all, he was stunned, and nodded convincingly: "Chun'er is right, this person who asks for a hundred taels ......of silver is not like a person who will live a careful life, our Zhuang family, do not seek to be rich and expensive, the most important thing is to be honest and responsible" After thinking about it, he added: "Dabao, this is the eldest grandson!" ”
The daughter-in-law of the eldest grandson cannot wait for her to be idle.
Chen was silent, but his expression obviously agreed with what He Laosan said.
He had already looked at He Laosan's face, and asked with a smile: "Dad, I often hear you talk, and they all say that the aunt is the most righteous, the most caring for her mother's family, and the most filial and most caring for the juniors. Give it back to someone like the one we said? What kind of family is our family, the small family that swept the bottom of the kang and didn't have a few taels of silver on its side, and the other family is the same as the sky and the ground, how can we pick up a hundred taels of dowry? I don't know what my aunt thinks! ”
He Laosan was stunned and froze.
He Chun'er cast an appreciative look at He Zao.
Among the sisters and brothers, she didn't want to see Aunt He the most, and she had seen Aunt He's true face clearly early, but He Laosan was not, she respected Aunt He from the bottom of her heart, and now it's just that Mrs. He tested it first, if she waited for Aunt He to say it in person, He Lao Thirty would agree to this family business!
Now that He Zao has reminded He Laosan, the latter will not fall into the pit so easily!
But before Sanfang and Old Man He could talk about it openly, Dabao rushed back in the dark.
The whole family was amazed.
Old Man He didn't know what was going on here, so he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”
Dabao waved his hand indifferently: "A little thing, I'll tell my father a word." ”
The tone of his speech was like an elder facing a junior.
The people in the third room, including the youngest Qibao, couldn't help frowning.
Dabao didn't see it, maybe his mind was not on this at all, and he followed into the upper room, and Old Man He was busy stir-frying again.
Dabao came over after dinner, and he didn't like the food in the countryside without oil and water at all, so he hurriedly refused, let them eat, and asked Qibao again: "Qibao, where is the scorpion you are around, I'll take a look." ”
Shippo's big eyes flashed and he looked at him warily.
Dabao was bored with himself, and muttered "little rabbit".
Old man He was still in the mood to eat, so he picked up two mouthfuls of confused soup, and then pulled Dabao to sit down on the kang: "Dabao, what's going on?" ”
Dabao's somewhat pale cheeks were dyed with a touch of crimson, and he glanced at the old lady He.
The latter put down his chopsticks and brought a hint of joy: "Boss, our Li'er told Dabao about family affairs...... "Aunt He's maiden name is He Li'er."
Old Man He was extremely surprised.
Mrs. He explained the situation excitedly, and at the end she looked at He Laosan angrily: "...... Such a good thing, the third child is stupid but he doesn't understand it at all, he pushes and obstructs everything, and good things make people uncomfortable! Da Baolai is asking about this, right? In front of Dabao, the third child, you said that you don't care about this family matter, you are a father! ”
With Dabao in front of her, Mrs. He's momentum is even stronger.
He Laosan put down the dishes and chopsticks, looked at this, and looked at that: "...... This bride price is a little more...... I'm afraid I won't take advantage of ......."
Because the sound of the last few words is extremely low, it seems to contain a little weakness.
Dabao put away his smile and sat there expressionlessly.
He Tanger'er followed: "Third brother, you can't say that, you don't know what the eldest sister is like, and doing things is the most reliable, and she must be in the match." It's not that you don't have any money now, and you go up the mountain every day to go around the scorpions, and you have hundreds of taels. Didn't our father and mother reach out to you to ask for silver, you don't care about your own son's family affairs, do you really want our father and mother to take care of you to the end? I don't look at how old my father and mother are, whether they can stand the ......"
A layer of sweat broke out on He Laosan's forehead.
Mrs. He snorted: "The adopted son is not successful at all, the bigger the squeaky nest, the more it will be for outsiders!" Keep crying with me......"
I don't even mention the separation.
He Zao took a closer look at Old Man He's face, faintly, obviously dissatisfied with this family matter.
He has been thinking about waiting for Dabao to show off his talents in the exam, and say that the family is good and the family is good, and the ancestors are glorified......
She looked at Dabao, and her voice was clear: "Big brother, you are a scholar, knowledgeable, and you can see things more than our villagers, you say that this family affair is not in the middle?" ”
As if he didn't expect her to say this, Dabao was a little surprised, and then said to Old Man He seriously: "Master, although that family is in the town, it is related to the county order of our county, and the relationship is close......"
He already understood why Dabao was so enthusiastic about this family business.
Old Man He's face was slightly pale, and he was about to speak, but He had already preemptively asked: "The eldest brother is satisfied, so how can this dowry money come out?" It is said that our family is not separated now, this kind of thing should be, big brother, you also agree to let our father take it? ”
Dabaoqiang couldn't help but didn't show a sneering look, but he was still very impatient: "Our family has earned that lot of silver, and we don't use it at a critical moment, so we have to wait for mold?" People gave more than half of the belongings as a dowry, and the dowry was not too much to ask for a hundred taels, and our family couldn't afford it! ”
Hmph, look at this breath! I don't know how much money he earns, so he has such an arrogant tone!
Just a month ago, the silver in the box of He Zao's family did not exceed one or two silvers.
He Zao sneered, and he was not ready to save face for him: "Big brother, you forgot, around the scorpion, the money from selling honeysuckle is reserved for the fourth brother and Qibao to go to school, and the rest of our family can't move!" ”
She said it too bluntly, Dabao was annoyed and ashamed, his face turned red, and his eyes staring at her were like a snake, cruel and disgusting!
