Liu Zhengyang wrote a letter and prepared gifts.

There are not only Mrs. Gongsun's, but also Li Xiaoyue and Li Changhuan.

Liu Zhengyang also personally sent Li Shiqiang and the caravan out of the capital, and Li Shiqiang took good care of them along the way, telling them some things that need to be paid attention to when going out.

Tang Ziqian and Liu Xiang'an didn't have such an idea, because as soon as they returned to the capital, they were annoyed by the people of Suiyang Hou, and the old lady of the Tang family was locked up at home and not allowed to come out.

Mrs. Tang just asked the servants of the house to see her off, and she has been worrying lately!

originally thought that when my grandson went on this trip, I could settle the matter between my grandson and Li Changhuan.

But now there is no progress on the grandson's side, so she can only be cheeky and talk to the old sister.

Of course, not now, wait for the spring of next year, and then send someone over to ask for marriage.

Mrs. Tang was very dissatisfied with her mother-in-law's anger at interfering with her son, and felt that she wanted her son to marry a country girl from the border pass.

"Mother, since the girl over there didn't say it, then we don't want the marriage over there."

Mrs. Tang glanced at her daughter-in-law with a little annoyance, "You only see that Chang Huan is a country girl, then do you know that once Ziqian marries Chang Huan, what he will get in the future is the entire Gongsun family." ”

"I don't know the assets of the Gongsun family in Lanshan County, but they are in the capital. Gongsun's spice shop can earn more than 100,000 taels of silver a year. ”

"The carpet with the pattern of pine cranes in my house is a full 1,300 taels of silver. This was done by the Li family where Li Changhuan worked, and last year Mrs. Li made a profit of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver through the wool thread business. ”

"When such a girl marries, can the dowry be rich? Have you ever thought about it? ”

When Mrs. Tang heard this, she was also moved, but there are many people who can give more dowries, and it is not only the Gongsun family.

"Then the Xu family is not bad! That's a wealthy businessman in Jiangnan, and the Xu family said over there that as long as we agree to this marriage, we will marry 200,000 taels of silver. ”

"Smack!" Mrs. Tang put the teacup on the table, with a dark face, "Don't have anything to do with the Xu family in the future, don't sell your son for a few hairpins." ”

Mrs. Tang touched the hairpin on her head, a little embarrassed, and smiled, "Mother, it's just a thing, don't care so much." Although the Xu family is a merchant, the Xu family is an imperial businessman. ”

"As long as there is a royal character in front of it, it is related to the royal family, which is also very remarkable."

Old Madam Tang sneered and looked at her light-eyed daughter-in-law, "Do you know that Li Changhuan's grandfather came to the capital for a period of time before, and he entered the palace almost every day, and His Majesty has to chat with Changhuan's grandfather every day, don't you think this is more glorious than the imperial businessman?" ”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Tang was dumbfounded, "Mother, is the Li family so powerful?" ”

"It's not amazing, why should I go all the way to let Ziqian go? I heard that the Hou Shizi of Suiyang was killed by bandits, and there was danger on the road. Mrs. Tang said in a deep voice, "Long hair and short knowledge, it's you." This Li family is small with His Majesty, but the Li family is not in the capital, and according to legend, His Majesty specially arranged for him to go to Lanshan County to protect the dragon vein of the Dayan Dynasty. ”

When Mrs. Tang heard this, she was excited, "Mother, this Li family is really not simple. Mother, why don't I go to Lanshan County to propose marriage in person to show our sincerity? ”

Mrs. Tang was moved, but there were less than two months to go before the New Year, she shook her head, "It's too deliberate to go now, wait until the spring of next year, you can run for me." If you can settle the marriage, it will be the best. If not, don't be upset. ”

"My relationship with Mrs. Gongsun for many years can't be stiffened just because the family can't get afloat. Buying and selling is not benevolent, let alone decades of old friendship. ”

"If you get along with people and make good friends, don't make enemies, otherwise you will make the road wider and wider, otherwise it will be narrower and narrower."

Mrs. Tang felt that her son was so good, and she ran it herself, which might make Mrs. Gongsun tempting, "Mother, you can rest assured." Knowing that Li Changhuan is so powerful, of course I am willing to hold her. ”

"Not only for Ziqian, but also for our Tang family. When Li Changhuan gives birth to a child, of course the Li family and the Gongsun family will spare no effort to help us. ”

Mrs. Tang knew that this daughter-in-law liked to praise the high and the low, and now that she knew the power of the Gongsun family and the Li family, she was interested.

This matter is left to the daughter-in-law, and she can rest assured.

Mrs. Tang thought that her grandson was good, but her close friends in the boudoir didn't like it, and she was not convinced.

But bow your head to marry your relatives, and raise your head to marry your daughter.

It's like this before, but when you marry into your own family, it's time for the woman's family to please the man.

After all, everyone hopes that their daughter will marry into the man's family and be treated well by her mother-in-law's family.

"Recently, I have been optimistic about Ziqian, don't let him go out, lest Mrs. Suiyang Hou come again." Mrs. Donald confessed.

Mrs. Tang nodded, her eyes showing boredom, "Mrs. Suiyang Hou is unreasonable, his son is dead, what does it have to do with our Ziqian?" Now we not only have to pay back the money for his son, but also have been wronged by her. ”

"Okay, Mrs. Suiyang Hou has a son, and no one can stand it. Let's deal with it in a low-key manner, don't argue about right and wrong, and it will be fine after a while. ”

"Yes, Mother." Mrs. Tang should go down, and then retreat.

Although Mrs. Tang did not go over in person, after she went back, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the Gongsun family and the Li family were good, so she privately sent her own companion Li An and his wife with a few guards to follow the caravan to Lanshan County together.

In the name of doing business, he went to investigate the Gongsun family and the Li family, as well as Li Changhuan.

Wait for the beginning of the Spring Festival, after she passes, her eyes will not be black.

The Liu family knew that it was impossible to get together with the Gongsun family, so the Liu family didn't dare to think about it, and warned Liu Xiangan not to get too close to the people of the Gongsun family and the Li family.

In the past few days, Liu Shilang has gone home early and played with the things his son bought from Lanshan County.

There are beautiful swords and knives, there are beautiful folding fans, and there are better carpets.

As soon as he bought it, he spread it in his study.

Another day, I invited two friends to my house for tea and admired the carpet together.

Liu Zhengyang came back from outside and saluted his father Liu Shilang, "Dad, have you finished reading all these things?" I'm going to take it back. ”

Hearing this, Liu Shilang couldn't care about playing with it, and hurriedly packed everything up, "Isn't this filial piety to me?" ”

Liu Zhengyang was dumbfounded, "Aren't the folding fans and carpets I gave you enough?" Other gadgets, you said to borrow them and look at them, and then when you have seen enough, you will return them to me. ”

Liu Shilang is not arrogant or impatient, and he doesn't have to pay it back, "You also said, when I have seen enough, I haven't seen enough now, how can I pay you back?" ”

"Father, you can't do that. I bought these things, and I hurried back before I had time to play with them. Liu Zhengyang couldn't cry or laugh, "I didn't expect that after returning to Beijing, Mrs. Suiyang Hou has been unwilling, hey, Dad, you can't cheat my things like this." ”
