Chapter 2003 (1/2)

When Qi you returned home, he called Han Jingjing and asked her to try to set the wedding date in the first half of next year.

Han Jingjing's face said, ”Dad, Mrs. Chen means to wait for Mu Qing to be 17 years old before marrying. She means to set the wedding date in May of the following year.” Shu wants to wait for her daughter to finish her seventeen year old birthday before she gets married.

Qiyou said Yunqing's words simply once: ”we are not unreasonable people. You tell her that this is the meaning of the old man in the family. I hope you can understand it.”

Han Jingjing knew that it was Yunqing. She nodded and said, ”OK, I'll go to Chen's house these two days.” Bogor did well in Tongcheng, which made Han Jingjing very happy. So don't be too grateful to them. She will try her best to satisfy this wish.

Shu hung his head and said, ”MuQing is going to marry into Lord you's mansion, and she is also a long-term daughter-in-law. Too little dowry will be looked down upon by her mother-in-law and her future younger brother-in-law.” It was also the year when jujube and liuer got married, and the dowry was only 108 yuan. So now, that's the most dowry in Beijing.

”How much dowry are you going to prepare for MuQing?” Hearing that Shu said he was going to raise Chen MuQing's dowry, Cui almost exploded: ”you want to empty Chen's house?”

The Chen family was a marquis in the former dynasty, and the Chen family had never been a black sheep. At home, a lot of wealth has been accumulated. Later, when the dynasty was changed, the Chen family did not suffer much impact, and their wealth was preserved. Chen Ran is in a high position. Even if he doesn't embezzle, he has saved a lot of money. However, Chen Ran and Yu Xixian have always been frugal. Except for their eldest son, the rest of the family didn't know that they had huge wealth.

Chen Zhong He is the first son of his own. When old Chen died, he should have told him about it. But old Chen knew that he was stupid and filial. He told him that Cui knew that. Cui's short-sighted and doting on his youngest son, we must know that these household wealth will not be guaranteed. So he left a letter and waited for his eldest grandson, Chen Huanzhang, to pass it on to him when he was 20 years old.

Shu said: ”my daughter-in-law dare not. She is just going to give her dowry to MuQing.” She's the only one who doesn't pay for it. If not, let Chen MuQing marry with a small dowry, and the dwarfs will come in.

As a matter of fact, the dowry of Prince Youfu's house is 36 lifts, and the dowry Chen's family of 108 lifts only needs 72 lifts.

Cui's dislike for Shu's more and more: ”you give all the dowry to Mu Qing. What about Zhang Er?

”Zhang'er is a man. He can save up his family business by himself.” And girl, if the husband's family is not good, the dowry is the last resort.

Cui was so angry that he almost took a breath of blood. But Cui's dowry is at her disposal, and she can't scold if she wants to.

”MuQing married the royal family. In special circumstances, he asked the public to give another 3000 Liang. In addition, I will pay another two thousand liang of silver. ” If Chen MuQing's dowry is mostly covered by Shu's family, the face of Chen's family will be lost if it is publicized.

Mrs. Chen's face didn't show half a smile, just said lightly, ”thank you mother.”

If you are the second or third daughter-in-law now, you must be moved to get such a large sum of money. So seeing Mrs. Chen's pale face, Cui's heart was uncomfortable: ”you go down!”

When Mrs. Chen got up, Cui said, ”save some money. Don't be short of it later.”

”Yes.”

Cui Shi used to see Mrs. Chen scolding like this. No matter how she scolded Mrs. Chen, she was a dead face. The more he scolded, the more he got angry, so that he fell ill once. After being admonished by the doctor, Cui spared no longer scolding Mrs. Chen.

But in the evening, when Chen he came back, she scolded him again. Chen Zhong is not only not angry, but comforts her for a long time, which makes her angry.

Shushi is in the room calculating accounts. He hears that Chen Zhonghe's coming and there's not a bit of fluctuation on his face. Since her death to Chen he, it doesn't matter whether he comes to the main court or not.

Every time Chen Zhong looks at his indifferent wife, he feels powerless. He didn't know why the couple had come to this point.

Mrs. Chen asked, ”is it for the dowry? Master, Mu Qing is going to marry into the palace. If the dowry is too little, it will be looked down upon. ”

Chen Zhonghe said, ”listen to my mother, are you going to give the dowry to Mu Qing?” There are rules to marry a daughter in the public. There are five thousand legitimate daughters and three thousand common daughters. His mother gave three thousand more, which broke the rules.

”Yes. Rui Wang Fu and Xuan Wang Fu's long daughter-in-law are both dowries carried by 108 people. My family is so green that we can't fall behind them. Otherwise, I'll lower my head at the door. ”
