Chapter 189 (1/2)

Aunt Hu approaches Gu Zhen.

”Two thousand taels of silver at the bottom of the box, will there be more?”

Aunt Hu objected.

Gu Jiu explained: ”I think big sister can have more confidence if she has more money on her body. When the elder brother-in-law goes to the north to change his defense, what does the elder sister want to eat and drink? She has to spend some money and ask the kitchen to make one. And big sister in the Xu family generous, but also faster familiar with the environment, a firm foothold

Gu Zhen nodded secretly, thinking that the second sister was considerate.

But aunt Hu said, ”if you leave two thousand taels of silver, only six thousand taels of silver will be used for dowry. When you get married and bask in your dowry, will it look too shabby for the Xu family to see the joke? ”

Gu Jiu said: ”aunt Hu, don't worry. The master said that the dowry of Xu family will be used to supplement the dowry of elder sister. I estimated that the Xu family would give about two thousand Liang betrothal gifts. With these betrothal gifts, it is not a problem to buy a dowry of 60 units. ”

Aunt Hu still has doubts.

However, Gu Zhen said simply: ”the second sister's idea is very good, so we can do it. It's just that there can be less silk and more cotton. ”

”Why is that?” Aunt Hu asked.

Gu Zhen lowered her head and her ears were red.

Aunt Hu asked again and again, she just made a voice, the voice was as small as the sound of mosquitoes.

”Prepare more cotton cloth, and when you have children, you can make clothes for them.”

Aunt Hu was very surprised that the child who had not grown up in her mind did not expect to think more long-term than her.

Gu Zhen's face was so red that she could not raise her head. Very embarrassed.

Gu Jiu laughed. ”Big sister is really considerate. It's my thoughtfulness.”

With that, Gu Jiu revised the list.

Then, Gu Jiu said: ”about making furniture, you can only aggrieve big sister. Because of the lack of time, there is no time to make new furniture. I discussed with my father that the furniture styles in the elder sister's room are all popular in recent years. It's better to ask a painter to come to the house and paint again as a dowry. What do you think, elder sister? ”

Aunt Hu frowned first.

Gu Zhen simply nodded, ”in two months' time, it is not easy to buy a dowry of 60 sets. About furniture, the second sister's method is very good. And I also like the furniture in my room. They are used to it. I can also use it well when I get married to the Xu family. ”

”Just wronged you.” Said Aunt Hu.

Gu Zhen laughed. ”I'm not aggrieved. Before, I was still worried that no one would buy me a dowry. Now I have a second sister to help me with the furniture. I am very happy. I believe in my second sister. How much money do you have. It's much better than my wife. ”

Eight thousand taels of dowry silver fell to Xie's hand. I don't know if there is still 6000 Liang left.

Give it to Gu Jiu. At least every penny of silver will be used to buy her dowry. Don't worry about being greedy.

Gu Jiu solemnly said: ”thank you for your trust. I will not let you down.”

”It's my turn to thank my second sister. Without you, my dowry must not be in sight. ”

”Big sister, don't say that. I'll copy a list, and we'll sort it out again to see if there's anything else that needs to be changed. ”

Gu Jiu is busy doing the dowry for Gu zhencao. The air seems to be solidified here in the study outside the courtyard.

When Xie learned that Mr. Gu asked Gu Jiu to handle Gu Zhen's dowry, she was so angry that she could not help cutting Gu with a knife.

This is a slap in the face!

Slap your face in front of everyone.

Xie's face turned red and looked at Mr. Gu angrily.

”This matter has been decided by this official and can not be changed,” Gu said without expression. You can buy the dowry for three girls at ease. You don't have to worry about the dowry of Jane. ”

Xie's sneers repeatedly. What a cruel man.

Once a man turns over his face, he is so heartless.

Ms. Gu is caught in the middle and is in a dilemma.

After thinking about it, he stood up and said, ”please give your mother some dignity.”

Mr. Gu was very dissatisfied, ”you don't have to worry about the house affairs. Go back to your room and read. ”

Gu Cheng sighed to herself, thought of a way, and said, ”it's better to ask the mother to complain of illness, so that the second sister has a reason to organize the dowry for the eldest sister. My mother will not be out of business. ”

”By what?” Xie was dissatisfied.

”It's also for the sake of mother's face,” Gu said honestly

Xie snorted coldly, ”as long as your father changes his mind, my face will still be preserved. As the housewife of the second room, I can't handle the dowry for the common girl. If this matter is spread out, how can I have prestige in front of the servants? ”

Gu said coldly, ”it's all from you.”

Xie grabbed the teacup and threw it at Mr. Gu.

With a quick eye and a quick hand, Gu stopped in a hurry.

”Get out of here! I don't want to see you now. ”Xie was so angry that she shivered all over and wanted to rush up to scratch the cheek of Mr. Gu.

Gu Cheng quickly grabbed Xie's family and took her away from her study.

Xie struggled desperately and scolded, ”you are not filial, let me go. What side are you on, son of a bitch? Do you still recognize me as a mother? ”

Gu Cheng turned a deaf ear to Xie's swearing and pulled Xie away with all her strength.

The servant girls did not dare to come forward. It's just because Ms. Gu's face is really ugly. There is a kind of omen before the storm comes.

Gu Cheng dragged Xie's family back to Furong hospital and let go.

As soon as she was free, she jumped up and hit Gu in the face.

Bang!

”Son of a bitch, do you see me as a mother?”

Gu Cheng stood still, bearing the slap of Xie.

Then he asked in a cold voice, ”can mother calm down?”

”No filial son, go away!” Xie scolded angrily.

Gu took a deep breath and said calmly, ”my mother blamed me for pulling you away, but if I do it again, my son will still do it.”

Xie picked up the teacup and smashed it on Gu Cheng's head.

This time, Gu did not stand still. She turned her head and avoided the teacup.

Then he said to his servant, ”take away the teapot, the teacup, the fragile things.”

Xie's face was twisted, ”dare you!”

With a long face, Gu said coldly to his servant, ”still not moving?”

People all shiver, even in spite of Xie's opposition, quickly put away all the fragile things in the room.

Xie's fury, ”counter, counter, you still tube to my head. Do you have any conscience? I'm your mother. That's what you've done to me. You're an unfilial son. ”

Gu said in a cold voice, ”my mother blames me. I understand. But once again, I will take my mother away.

Because It was obvious that the father was in a state of anger, and that he was already disgusted with his mother. At this time. Mother said many wrong, said anything is wrong.

Now the most important thing for a mother to do is to be calm and not to meet my father recently. On my father's side, I will try to persuade

Xie's ha ha sneer, ”I am old and pale, your father is naturally disgusted with me.”

”My mother's words have taken my father too lightly. My son thinks that the root of everything lies in the Xie family. ”

Xie's earthquake, some accidents.

”Your father said he didn't blame me. And I've cut off contact with Xie's family. What else should he do? Do you want me to die? ”

Gu Cheng pursed her lips with a serious expression.

”Does the mother really think that the father has forgotten all the things he did to his father? Do you really think your father will have no problem? ”

Xie's face was pale.

After all, the root of all this lies in her mother. Father is not a generous man

Not magnanimous man, in a word, did everything.

Xie's smile, sad smile, ”you are right, your father is not a generous man. I was naive. I really thought it would be fine after the rain. Ha ha... ”
