Chapter 133: Marriage

Whenever he thinks of the Li family, Li Ruyan can't help but slander in his heart. The old sect master is the current head of the Li family, but the old sect master has not cared much about the affairs of the Li family over the years. Although the affairs of the Li family and the affairs of the Qingwei Sect overlap to a large extent, after all, there are still some parts that have nothing to do with the Qingwei Sect, such as weddings and funerals. According to the reason, the head of the family doesn't care about things, and the lady is gone, so the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law should come forward, Zhang Haishi, a person with a foreign surname, should not meddle in it, but there is also a Li Feiyan, she is an elder, the sister-in-law of the current head of the family, and the daughter of the previous head of the family, the younger sister of the lady, many clan elders have to sell her a face, she speaks in this kind of thing that does not involve the fundamental interests of the Li family and is the acquiescence of the head of the family, even Li Yuanying can't say a word.

Of course, there are not a few children of the Li family, but the children of the Li family are also the core elite of the Qingwei Sect, most of them hold important positions in the Qing Wei Sect, with the continuous expansion of the power of the Qing Wei Sect, they will not only guard in Qizhou and the East China Sea, but are scattered in the north and south of the river. They can come to congratulate them on the day of marriage, but they can't go all the way to Liaodong for the sake of "Dading", but "Dading" is best to have a few Li Xuandu's peers, and their status is good, to show respect. So Li Ruyan, who happened to have nothing to do, was arrested and drudgery.

Li Xuandu saw Li Ruyan's appearance, and suddenly felt that it was not interesting, in order to maintain a strong Li family, there has always been a tradition that a righteous son and son-in-law can be in power, Li Daoxu ascended the throne as a son-in-law, and Li Xuandu, Li Yuanying, Li Taiyi and others are the identity of the righteous son, this tradition can ensure that the Li family has talents from generation to generation, there is no green and yellow, and it will be prosperous for a long time, but there are also great hidden dangers, after the lack of blood ties, the Li family is more like a sect, rather than a family, and the family affection in the family is even weaker to the extent that it is almost nothing.

At this time, Li Xuandu was indeed like a complete outsider to most of the Li family.

Li Xuandu just came back from the Qin family, no matter what, the Qin family still looks like they are united on the surface, and then look at their own side, they almost wrote the open and secret battles on their faces, Li Xuan couldn't help but be a little excited, and waved his hand to signal everyone to disperse.

Although Li Xuandu has seen through these a long time ago, he occasionally misses his family, there is a good saying, the more he lacks something, the more he wants something, Li Xuandu has been an orphan since he was a child, if he says that he has no obsession with the family, it is a deception. However, Li Xuandu quickly put aside this slightly weak idea, returned to his usual indifference, and continued to improve his "Nandou Twenty-Eight Sword Technique".

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it was the day when the Li family made a big decision to the Qin family, so Li Xuandu led the team to the Qin Mansion early in the morning.

Li Daoxu is not a profligate, but he will never be in silver

The money is stingy, he pulled out a sum of money from his private treasury to marry Li Xuandu, Zhang Haishi was not polite, and bought a decent enough dowry, the materials are all purchased from the south of the Yangtze River, lake silk and Shu brocade; all kinds of clothes in the four seasons are customized from the weaving bureau, although it is not in accordance with the rules, but power and silver are a good thing. There are also various kinds of jewelry, all of which are from Li Feiyan's collection. At that time, Li Gong and his wife prepared two extremely rich dowries for their two daughters, and after Li Qingyun's death, because she had no children, her dowry also went to Li Feiyan's hands. Although Li Feiyan later left Qingweizong, these two dowries are still hers, whether it is Li Daoxu or Li Daoshi, unless it is shameless, they will not touch the dowry of the woman's family. No matter what Li Feiyan does with his dowry, others can't say anything.

In addition, there are things that Li Xuandu does not know the function, and they are packed in various exquisite utensils and brocade boxes, which may not be very precious, but they represent a certain meaning. Just like a gift list, what is valuable is not the gift list itself, but the gifts corresponding to the gift list.

People had already gotten the news, and they were on both sides of the street, crowded with people, watching this strange team go to the Qin family's mansion, in addition to more than 100 Li family disciples, there were also 200 ordinary disciples, and the two of them carried it, making the team half a street long. Most of the onlookers looked at them with envy. And the Qin family also sent people to wait in front of the door to greet them, and they were responsible for the storage of the gift list.

For the dowry, Qin Daoyuan was very satisfied, and he was secretly relieved.

Qin Daoyuan knew that although his uncle was famous and the sect master of the Taiping Sect, he didn't care much about the silver money, and he didn't have much money to spare. Although the Qin family does not lack these, if the Li family's dowry is too shabby, in the eyes of outsiders, it is the Li family who despises the Qin family and does not take the daughter of the Qin family seriously, if the Qin family accepts the dowry, it is weak, or there is a request from the Li family, in this way, the Qin family is discredited, which Qin Daoyuan can never tolerate.

Now there is no mistake in the dowry, which means that the Li family does not plan to play any tricks, or even if there are any tricks, they have been suppressed by Zhang Haishi and Li Feiyan. The next step is to set a suitable wedding date according to the birthdays of Li Xuandu and Qin Su.

On the other hand, the Qin family is also preparing Qin Su's dowry, because it is the only daughter of the eldest lord, the Qin family attaches great importance to it, but Qin Su's biological mother died early, and there is no serious hostess in the house. In the end, I still invited the second lady of Dongfu, that is, Qin Daoyuan's wife, Qin Su's uncle, and asked her to personally preside over the dowry of Qin Su's biological mother

On the basis, some more have been added or subtracted.

The dowry of a large family is not only gold, silver, soft and furniture, but also various industries, such as fields, villages, shops, and maids. If you are a person in the rivers and lakes, sometimes you will marry some other things, such as divine weapons or secret magic methods, it all depends on the situation of each family. Although there are precedents to refer to, they should also be considered on a case-by-case basis.

The dowry is first of all the furniture of the new house, but Li Xuandu's residence is undecided, whether it is Liaodong, or the East China Sea, or the Taiping Sect, there is no fixed number, so the Qin family simply prepared three sets of rosewood furniture, from the living room, the study to the bedroom side hall, everything is available, and then there are quilts, pillows, clothes for the four seasons, ruler clothing and other things, all for the newlyweds. Then there are all kinds of antiques, calligraphy and painting, porcelain, jade, pearls, coral, jade, gold and silverware, everything.

In addition, there are all kinds of jewelry, all of which are made of precious materials, made by the best craftsmen, and are also complete sets, with different styles and styles, and in terms of value, they may not be cheaper than antique furnishings.

These add up to more than 100 boxes.

However, these are not the most valuable, the real value is the marriage industry, this piece was personally finalized by Qin Qing before the retreat, first of all, there are 100 acres of land, 15 acres of land, 100 acres is 1,500 acres, and 500 acres of Qizhou Land, a total of 2,000 acres. Today, Sun Ge is an old man, and the entire family has only 200,000 acres of fertile land for a hundred years. In addition, there are 20 industries in various places, most of which are located in the prosperous areas of Dijing and Jinling Mansion, including the Qingping Bookstore negotiated by Li Xuandu and Qin Su. There are also four maids for dowry, eight housekeepers, eight housekeepers, and forty families.

These are all Qin Qing's private property, not the Qin family's public property, so the Qin family has no objection. Of course, the Qin family did not give things to the Li family for nothing, according to the rules, these are all given by Qin Qing to his daughter, and they are Qin Su's private property, just like Li Feiyan's dowry, which has nothing to do with men, Li Xuan has no right to dispose of it, and can only pass it on to his children, if there are no children or he leaves, he must take back the Qin family.

This dowry should be sent to Li Xuandu's house the day before marriage, if it is a small family, I am afraid that there is no place to put it, so it is imperative for Li Xuandu to buy a new mansion, and it is another expense.

Li Xuan doesn't like extravagance, but in this matter, he and Qin Su can't be the masters, because it is the good of the two surnames, it is related to the face of the Qin family and the Li family, no one wants to make people laugh, and it is also about Qin Su's face, in today's world, there is a trend, the more grand the marriage, the richer the dowry, the more the in-laws dare not treat the bride slowly, and vice versa, so no matter what Li Xuan thinks, he can only accept it.
