Chapter 137: The intention of coming to Jiang Mansion

Su Adong said, thought about it and added: "Set a date to be far away, save the hurry, the dowry is not complete." ”

"Ugh." Liu was also reluctant to give up his daughter, so he patted his thigh and said, "The eighth day of the lunar month is a good day...... Or ......"

Is there any mistake, today is only the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there is still a ...... before the eighth day of the lunar month? Three hundred and fifty-two days!

Lu Tianhui and Su Qingyan shouted in unison:

"Teacher's ......"

"Mother......

Liu and Liniang suddenly laughed, and Su Adong was inexplicable.

Li Niang finished laughing before explaining: "Girl, Lu Gongzi, Mrs. is joking with you!" ”

"Look at them in a hurry! Lu Tianhui wants to marry a daughter-in-law, I can understand this mood, but you can see Yan ...... clearly" Liu's tears of laughter are about to come out. Su Qingyan, who was solid, just wanted to drill into the cracks in the ground.

She never thought that the mother who used to like to cry and cry now knew to make jokes about her.

After a sneer, he ran back to his room.

After Lu Tianhui knew that it was a joke, he was also relieved and said goodbye.

However, this joke sounded the alarm bell for him, and he always felt that if he didn't marry Su Qingyan home one day earlier, his heart would always hang up.

On the morning of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the family hurriedly had breakfast and began to pack up their things, and the yard was covered with thick snow, which saved people a lot of trouble.

All they had to do was clean up the house, but it would take half an hour to clean up.

Su Wan sat on the pit, looked at the snow outside through the gap, and said longingly:

"The second sister is married, will there be so many things for the eldest sister? There will be lots and lots of delicious pastries, lots and lots of nice jewelry and clothes......"

"There shouldn't be, Lu Tianhui's family is similar to us, they are all farmers, and our eldest sister is married to one of the best sons in the city, which can't be compared."

Su Qingyan propped his head on the table with his hand pillow, and thought badly: I have received a dowry of two taels of silver a long time ago, maybe they will come empty-handed.

"Hey, it's coming." Liu opened the door and was the first to rush out.

The rest of the people also hurriedly came out to greet them.

Su Qingyan followed behind Liu, and saw that except for Lu Tianhui who carried two boxes of things, Du Matchmaker and Qin were empty-handed, thinking that there should not be too many periods

Treat.

Liu Shi greeted him out, and before he could speak, Qin Shi curtsied his knees and made a ten thousand blessing ceremony, and when Liu saw this, he almost reflexively returned the salute.

She didn't forget that on the sixth day of the first month of November, she and Su Qingyan laughed at Su Wan's salute, and was held by Liniang to teach her at noon.

The training was clear.

Seeing this, Su Qingyan hurriedly followed behind Liu and saluted, and Su Wan also bowed in style.

Li Niang stood next to her, and put her hand on the side of her body when she performed the blessing ceremony, which was to show her identity as a maid.

All of a sudden, not only Du Matchmaker, but also the Qin family himself was stunned.

Immediately, she smiled with satisfaction, greeted each other with Liu, and entered the house hand in hand.

Liu looked at the mud house that was still very dilapidated and low even if it was cleaned, and said embarrassedly: "This house is really a little broken, I have wronged you." ”

"It doesn't matter, these are just things outside the body, life does not bring death and does not take them, as long as there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain."

Qin's speech was crepe, and his movements and demeanor were not as rude as Mrs. Shanye's, and there was a kind of indifference to see through the red dust.

This is also the most fundamental reason why she does not get along with other women in the village.

If it weren't for Liu's recent writing and reading, and memorizing some poems and idioms, she might not even understand what Qin's words meant.

But although she understood, she still had a little difficulty answering, but fortunately, Liniang was there to help save the scene.

The Qin family also knew that the Su family was just a native of the countryside, and it was very good to be able to read a few words, so it would be good not to mess around.

After lunch, under the witness of the matchmaker, Qin took out two marriage books that had been written from his sleeve, and said: "Sister-in-law, originally these thirty-eight gifts, I should have prepared them one by one, but last year, since entering the lunar month, the snow closed the mountain, and when the Chinese New Year was approaching, I sent Tianhui out a few times, but the shops on the street were closed.

In desperation, I had to bring two of the most critical things to send, and I hope you don't dislike it, as for the thirty-eight things, I just thought, all in the dowry, I hope you don't mind. ”

As he spoke, Qin took out a silver ticket with a denomination of two hundred taels and pushed it to Liu.

Shocked everyone's eyes and almost fell to the ground.

Especially Mrs. Du, who has helped people pull matchmakers for so many years, has also contributed to a lot of good things, and the dowry is a gift from her in-laws to the woman's parents, most of which are a few taels of silver.

There are very few more than ten taels.

Su Xiang got twenty taels of dowry and thirty taels of dowry at that time, which had already spread in several nearby villages.

This is good, the daughters of the Su family are better than the other, and the second girl actually got a dowry of two hundred taels.

Although the thirty-eight samples add up to a lot of money.

But there are also big differences in the amount of money to be spent in different grades.

Those who buy copper jewelry, with coarse cloth and red clothes, are the most resistant, and they only need a few taels of silver to make up thirty-eight kinds.

If you buy silver jewelry, with fine cotton and red clothes, it is mid-range, and it costs dozens of taels to buy it all.

And those who buy gold jewelry, with silk forged wedding dresses, are very high-end, and they will have to pay at least more than 100 taels of silver when they are purchased.

But these are all the rules of the Yin family, like when the Liu family got married before, her family was poor, she didn't have any dowry, and the Su family only gave her family a little dowry, and there was no such thing as a thirty-eight ceremony.

And Yin Shi is like Ji Gugongzi, and the specifications given to Su Xiaoni are only silver jewelry, but it still does not prevent Su Xiaoni from being happy, and Mrs. Zhang's family feels that they have face.

Because being able to make up the 38 major samples is a sense of ritual in itself.

However, Lu Tianhui and the Su family are from the village, and Su Adong and the Liu family did not compare Lu Tianhui with Lin Zhonghuo at all.

I think the girl is willing.

Especially when they saw the Qin clan coming, they only mentioned two boxes, and they didn't expect so much.

Who knows, this gift is not less, and it is still according to such a high standard.

However, except for some money-hungry mothers-in-law who will take the initiative to ask for these things to be folded into silver.

It's the first time I've seen Liu, and someone took the initiative to fold it into silver because he couldn't get together the thirty-eight samples!

This...... How do they collect it?

Liu opened his mouth in surprise, looked at Su Adong and then at Su Qingyan, knowing that these two people were not suitable to speak now, and they had to come forward by themselves.

Busy with a smiling face, generously responded: "My in-laws are bothered, this winter is indeed different from previous years, I hope that the new year will be new, and it will be better after the New Year." ”

"Definitely, definitely!"

Seeing that the Liu family was not a person who was twisted and pinched, and could not put it on the table, the Qin family replied with a mouthful of answers.

Mrs. Du came back from her surprise, and put up her professional smile again: "Sister-in-law of the Su family, this ink, paper and inkstone is available, if not, I will go out and borrow it for you, and we will sign the marriage date!" ”

"Yes."

Liu Shi responded, raised his head, and seemed to want to find out where to put it.

Li Niang hurriedly said: "Nickname in the girl's room, and the maid will go and get it." ”

Saying that, she bowed and walked to Su Qingyan's bedroom.

When Su Qingyan heard her call herself a servant, she raised her eyebrows almost inaudibly, a little displeased.

She has told Liniang many times that she is a family member, not a subordinate, but Liniang always says that she is a subordinate.
