Chapter 136: Has the Spiritual Spring Water Been Upgraded?
"Now that the weather is like this, it's not easy to go out. Wait for the snow storm and cold wave to pass, let people check. No matter what, I have to talk to Brother Gao Wu. ”
"Hmmm! It is said that the relationship between the eldest daughter of the Chen Mansion and Chen Qingqing has long been reversed, and they do not recognize each other. According to the news inquired by Brother Xie, she was admitted to the Jinshi. Brother Xie and I have a guess if this eldest daughter knows something. ”
After Li Yuan said this, when she saw Wang Can bow her head, she continued: "Chen Qingqing, that is, the person who married the young daughter, is also from the Gao family, a wealthy merchant in Fucheng, but she is married to the eldest son of the Gao family.
It is reported that the eldest son's mother-in-law has an excellent relationship with Wu Yuer, the concubine of the Chen Mansion. said that the two were neighbors when they were young, and they were also related by blood. ”
Wang Can didn't understand why Li Yuan deliberately said this, so he said, "Sister Yuan, do you think there is a problem here?" ”
"The two know each other, but there is no problem. The problem is that all the things hired by the Gao Mansion add up to less than 1,000 taels. And when Chen Qingqing got married, the dowry was fifty percent more than that of her eldest sister.
It is said that many of them were privately supplemented by Wu Yuer. The silver at the bottom of the box alone has three thousand taels, not to mention Zhuangzi shops and other things.
I heard that when Chen Qingqing showed his dowry the day before he got married, many people were discussing Wu Yuer's kindness and the like. ”
"If the Chen Mansion loves this young girl, and the family has money, it's okay to give more, right?"
"Well, that's what I said, but Chen Qingqing's character is a little difficult to explain. When we met her for the first time, they didn't care about their faces, and personally took the girl to shout and scold at the door of the rice store. Do you think of the daughter of a wealthy family, or Mrs. But whoever has a brain would do such a thing? ”
"It seems to be too! Like those rich daughters and wives in Liuyun County, what do they want to do, don't they all send a steward or a maiden to come forward? ”
"Hmmm! She is a little brainless, Brother Xie said that Wu Yuer intended to kill her. If Wu Yuer is really good for her, can you not know what kind of character she is? Can you arrange some profitable mother-in-law or something around her?
The only possibility is that Wu Yuer did it on purpose. Even the people around her, under the instruction of Wu Yuer, often whispered something in her ear.
You say that under such circumstances, why did Wu Yuer give her so much dowry? Even if you want to show face to outsiders, there's no need to give real money, right? ”
Wang Can is now full of thoughts about changing children, and subconsciously said when he heard the words.
"It's hard to say that the eldest son of the Gao family was born to the current Mrs. Chen. She gave Chen Qingqing so many dowry gifts, in fact, to supplement her son. ”
Li Yuan listened thoughtfully, and said: "Now this Wu Yu'er, Brother Xie said that it is the daughter of the cousin of the old lady of the Chen Mansion, as for why she came to be a concubine in the first place, no one knows this."
What you said, it seems possible. It's just that if she can give birth to the eldest son of Master Gao, then why don't she enter the Gao Mansion and come to the Chen Mansion to be a concubine?
At that time, the Chen Mansion was only a little money at most, right? Also, what's going on with the eldest son of Gaofu? ”
Wang Can didn't bother to guess these.
"No matter what the matter is, let Brother Gao Wu check it himself when the time comes, Sister Yuanniang, you have helped enough.
Also, this is a matter between high-ranking families, and it has nothing to do with us. If Brother Gao Wu was really the sister-in-law of the Chen Mansion, and his eldest sister knew something, he would definitely not sit idly by. ”
"Well, what can be done, Brother Xie and I have also done it, and then it's up to them. Of course, this premise is that he is really the sister-in-law of the Chen Mansion. Okay, Canniang, come and see, do you like these things I bought? ”
There are few women who don't love jewelry, especially Wang Can, who has never gotten anything in her previous life.
When she married Liu Dongsheng as a step-room, no one came to pick her up, and it was Yang Dahua who took the initiative to send her over with her baggage.
She had a very hard time when she arrived at Liu's house, she couldn't eat enough every day, and she still had endless work.
In such a situation, there is no penny, let alone any jewellery and new clothes.
Like now, it is the first time for her to be so valued by the man's family before she is married.
Although these things bought by her sister may be the money she gave, the nature is completely different.
Brother Jun Zi didn't know anything, so he kept a few taels for himself and was ready to marry her.
And the old mansion knew about Brother Junzi's situation and took the initiative to take money to help him pay off his debts.
and her sister, who puts her at the top of her heart, thinks about her in everything.
It is her blessing to be able to marry into such a family, and God saw that she was too bitter in her previous life, so she deliberately made up for it.
She cherishes everything now, so no matter what her sister buys or what style it is, she will like it.
With this in mind, after Wang Can opened the wooden boxes one by one, he saw that her eyes were getting wider and wider.
Finally, he looked at Li Yuan in disbelief, and his voice trembled slightly: "Sister Yuan, all of these are mine?" ”
As she spoke, she also reached out and touched the gilt silver hairpin, and then touched the pair of gold earrings.
In the end, his eyes fell on the silver hairpin, silver hairpin and silver bracelet, and his heart only felt that he was beating wildly.
"Yes, it's all yours. The gilt silver hairpin and the golden ear bell are the things that Junzi hired for you. The other silver ornaments are the dowries I bought for you.
Canniang, I have limited money now, and there are many places to use silver in the future, so these are the only things I can prepare for you and Junzi. When the days are better, I'll buy you the rest. ”
Wang Can's eyes were swollen, and he shook his head with a smile and said, "No, this is very good, I like it very much, thank you, Sister Yuan." In the future, Brother Junzi and I will make money, and we will buy whatever we want. Sister Yuan, keep your silver. Well, for now, let's put it together first. ”
Li Yuan thought for a while, and simply said: "Canniang, in the future, you can save the money you earn." If you're afraid you'll lose something, you can let me do it first, and I'll make a note of how much each one is.
When everything is all right, I'll give you the full amount. Also, you don't have to let me do it all, you have to keep some of it on yourself. Junzina, you just said that it was the dividends that we got from planting vegetables or something. ”
Wang Can was not hypocritical, knowing that after getting married, she had her own small family to live, so she nodded.
"Good! However, since Sister Yuan Niang wants to distinguish clearly, let's just figure it out. My line of selling vegetables is to follow Xie Xiucai's path, and this dividend should be given to him.
It's just that he thinks that this is what you did, and in the future, Sister Yuan, you will also marry Xie Xiucai, so I will give you this money. Well, I'll divide you into three, do you think it's okay? ”
"No, you don't! Brother Xie doesn't want this money, and I don't need it. If you really want to be grateful, if there is more spiritual spring water, you can share it with me. I have land in my house, so I have to save it first. ”
Speaking of this, Li Yuan suddenly remembered that the three members of the Liu family were already in prison, so she hurriedly asked, "Canniang, has your spiritual spring water been upgraded again?" ”
