Chapter 179 (1/2)
Songhe hall, Houfu.
Everyone accompanied the old lady Wei.
I don't know who mentioned a wedding dress gold thread, the old lady Wei asked.
The first lady, the little Wei, coughed softly and said, ”in the next house, Xiaojiu and Yue girls are going to start preparing for the wedding dress. Xiaojiu gets eight liang of gold thread, and Yue's girl gets four liang of gold thread.
Xie's younger sister was in love with her daughter. She thought she had been wronged, so she made a quarrel with her sister Zhang. At the end of the fight, Sister Zhang didn't give in, just said the rules were like this. ”
The old lady Wei Shi frowned, ”in order to have a fight for a few gold threads, Xie didn't know that he took out the gold and asked someone to wring it into gold thread to add to the baby girl?”
The big lady, the little Wei, pursed her lips and said, ”maybe it's Xie Di Mei who can't bear it.”
Wang Shi, the second lady, laughed, ”she said that she was a baby girl, but she refused to give me a couple of gold. It's a bit stingy. ”
The elder lady and the younger Wei Shi laughed and said nothing.
She was happy to see others bury Xie.
Xie Shi is under beating.
The old lady Wei Shi asked: ”the date of Xiaojiu's marriage hasn't been decided yet?”
The eldest lady, the younger Wei, nodded and said, ”we haven't set a wedding date yet. However, the daughter-in-law heard that Prince Ning's residence and Miss Xiao's marriage date had been set, which was in July this year.
The date of marriage between gongzizhao and Xiaojiu, if not fixed now, will be later than the date agreed by the prince.
In this way, Xiaojiu married to the palace, clearly is the legitimate eldest daughter-in-law, but will be constrained by Miss Xiao.
I don't know what the Ning Prince's house is going to do, and the prince's edict seems to be in no hurry to get married. ”
The old lady Wei Shi slightly frowned, ”our house, and Ning Wangfu can't get on. Otherwise, send someone to the palace to ask. ”
The third lady Duan said: ”the daughter-in-law thinks that since Xiaojiu has been engaged to the prince, this is the ready-made reason for making up a conversation. The second master of the house next door should send someone to ask the king's house. It's also a courtesy
The elder lady and the younger Wei nodded, ”the third younger brother and younger sister are right. Marriage is a ready-made reason. If the palace doesn't take the initiative, the next house can't take the initiative. It's time to find an opportunity and send someone to the palace to ask. ”
The old lady Wei said, ”I'll talk to the Lord tomorrow and listen to what he means. Mother Yu, go to the cage and have a look. How much gold thread is left? ”
Mother Yu took orders to check in.
The second Lady Wang asked, ”is the old lady going to send gold thread to the girl next door?”
The old lady, Wei Shi, said with a smile, ”as a wife, Xie is very confused. For a little bit of gold line, noisy, not to mention the disgraceful thing, only the two sisters of Xiaojiu and Yue will have a rift because of this. I don't know. Since I know, I can't beat Xie. ”
Mother Yu came out from the inside, ”tell the old lady that there is still half a kilogram of gold thread left.”
The old lady Wei Shi is very simple, ”give Xiao Jiu two liang gold thread, Yue wench also send two liang gold thread. Their two sisters are equal in their old age, and they are never discriminating between one and the other.
It's said that she's lost her family. The remaining one or two gold thread will be sent to Jane.
I hope that this marriage can be smooth and smooth, and make a good marriage as soon as possible.
Tell her not to worry about the marriage. It's time to prepare the wedding dress. There are not many gold lines, but they are also the wishes of my old man. ”
”An old lady is love.”
Mother Yu took the errand, took the servant girl and took the half Jin gold thread to the next door Gu's house to give gifts.
The eldest wife, Zhang, came forward to receive mother Yu.
Hearing that mammy Yu sent gold thread to the girls, she immediately sent for several girls to the flower hall, and then sent for Xie.
Xie's wife was the second room wife. Mother Yu came to give gifts. She should be present.
Here we are.
Mother Yu explained his intention, ”the old lady heard that Xiaojiu girl, Yue girl and Zhen girl were all making wedding dresses, so she asked the maid to go there specially to bring the gold thread for the three girls to embroider the wedding dress.”
Finish saying, let small servant girl deliver gold thread.
Gu Jiu came forward and said in a hurry: ”I'm sorry for the old lady. The government has prepared enough gold thread. How can we ask for the old lady's gold thread again. It's not appropriate. ”
Gu Yue bowed his head and turned his mouth. Gu Jiu has eight Liang gold thread. Of course, he doesn't care. But she cares.
But she couldn't say what she said in her heart. It was too unruly.
Gu Zhen was also looking forward to it, but she also knew that the reward from the elderly should be rejected.
Mother Yu said with a smile, ”the old lady said that this is her intention. The three girls must accept it. Otherwise, the old lady will not be happy
Gu Jiuchao's Great Aunt Zhang.
Zhang nodded to her.
Gu Jiu said in a hurry: ”the elder gives it, but I dare not quit. Then I'll accept this gift on behalf of my eldest sister and my third sister. ”
In Mammy's smile, ”should be so.”
Zhang said happily, ”the old man loves the girls. What do you say, sister-in-law? ”Xie's embarrassed smile, ”the old lady's heart, the children will bear in mind.”
Mother Yu looked at Xie's family and said, ”it's hard for the second wife to manage the marriage of the three girls. The old lady also said that she would like to invite the two ladies to sit down in the Marquis when they were free
Mrs. Zhang said with a smile, ”I'll go to the Hou's house to greet the old lady when I get free tomorrow. Do you want to go with me, sister-in-law? ”
Xie's smile, ”nature with.”
Xie's heart is not strong. I always felt that mammy had something in her words, but she couldn't figure it out.
She feels weird.
Mother Yu seemed to smile, drank two sips of tea, and then left on the pretext of something.
Gu Yue got two liang gold thread, don't mention how happy. The excitement on his face could not be concealed.
Gu Zhen was also very happy, but she still knew how to hold back.
Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: ”this is good, sister-in-law no longer need to worry about his maid's wedding dress gold thread.”
Xie Shi snorted, ”if it's not for sister-in-law to open mouth and shut up, why should I worry about yue'er's dowry line?”
Mrs. Zhang looked at Xie with a smile. ”Two liang gold thread is not worth much money. It's a lot of silver. How can the younger brother and sister be like this? They can't even give up two or two gold threads for their daughter's wedding dress. ”
Xie's anger turned upside down, ”sister-in-law said lightly. Our second house is not like your big house, which controls the property of the public, and does not need to marry a daughter. Of course, we don't care about hundreds of Liang silver. In our second room, we have children and daughters. In addition to the marriage of three maids, the marriage of Sanlang and LIULANG should also be handled.
The marriage of a few children has emptied the savings of my master and I for many years. There is no more money to buy gold thread.
If my sister-in-law is willing to let me take care of the public property, I can also be generous to take it out. Unfortunately, my sister-in-law refused to give me a chance. ”
Zhang Shi Leng hum a, ”younger brother and sister is really a villain's heart, it seems that my previous warning, sister-in-law is not listening to.”
Xie's face changed slightly, but she remembered that Zhang said he would put her in the ancestral hall for reflection.
She had no doubt that Zhang could do such a thing.
A man of noble family background acts savagely.
Xie Shi snorted, ”I'm busy. I'll leave first. You can help yourself, sister-in-law. ”
With that, Xie got up and left. Gu Yue quickly followed.
Zhang sneered and turned his eyes secretly.
Gu Jiu shakes his head and laughs. Xie's family can't get any benefits from his great aunt Zhang's, but he doesn't admit defeat. He has to catch up and look for smoke. It can only be said that the spirit is commendable.
Gu Jiu gets up and prepares to leave.
Mrs. Zhang called on their sisters.
”Miss Zhen, it's time for the national funeral. It's inconvenient. After a hundred days of filial piety, your marriage should also be discussed. ”
Gu Zhen immediately flushed her cheeks and was at a loss.
”Aunt, my marriage Didn't you say there was no text? ”
The eldest wife, Zhang Shi, said with a smile, ”my uncle's house, indeed, there is no following. But my sister's family, but I like you. Do you dislike it? ”
Gu Zhen repeatedly waved her hand, ”my niece certainly won't dislike it.”
”That's good. After a hundred days of filial piety, the two families will see each other again. If it is appropriate, the marriage will be settled. Your wedding dress must be done as soon as possible. ”
Gu Zhen blushed and nodded heavily, ”thank you very much.”
Gu Zhen is very excited, her eyes are moist.
Seeing this, Zhang said, ”look at your child. It's not a big deal. How can it be so?”
Wiping her tears, Gu Zhen said, ”originally, my wife should be in charge of my marriage. Unexpectedly, my wife didn't expect it. In the end, my eldest aunt helped me solve my life problems. ”
”It's too early to talk about a solution,” Zhang said. It's not too late for you to thank me when the marriage is settled. ”
Gu Zhen nods heavily.
