Greetings, Ninth Uncle

It's just that she has no face, Madam Zhai drooped the corners of her mouth and was too lazy to say more. She said: "The Cheng family has found a good name, saying that the grandfather is reliant, and the eldest girl should be filial to the grandfather. We don't need to identify whether this is true or false. Anyway, the Cheng family said so, so we believe it. Anyway, the end of the year After that, Cheng Yujin can get the name of filial piety, and the two girls in the Cheng family can marry well. If we marry Cheng Yujin and come back, the face will look good. Everyone has their own advantages, and there is no need to be obsessed with truth or falsehood in some things. "

The truth is true, there are many tacit words among the nobles. Even if all the palaces in the capital know why Cheng Yujin was delayed for a year, as long as no one can tell the truth and the face looks good, this matter can be brought to a successful conclusion. Zhai Yanlin has seen many similar things. If it was in the past, he would not bother to ask after hearing it, but now he doesn't know why, thinking of Cheng Yujin, he always feels resentful in his heart.

Such a beauty, obviously did nothing wrong, why should she suffer such a setback? But Zhai Yanlin was just thinking about it, if it was because of a woman and Jingyong Hou's house, it would be a big joke in the world. Not to mention that Cheng Yujin has nothing to do with the Zhai family now, even if Cheng Yujin changed his Geng Tie and married into Cai Guogong's mansion, Zhai Yanlin would not affect his social affairs in the court for a woman.

So Zhai Yanlin just sighed and said, "I see. That being the case, when the Huo family is hired, I'll go to Yichūn Hou's mansion."

Sure enough, the Huo family soon sent a betrothal gift after Old Master Cheng passed away. The day of Cheng Yumo's marriage was suddenly in sight.

Old Madam Cheng's room was full of people. At this point, the guests were almost gone, and Nguyen finally found an opportunity to talk to Madam Cheng about the dowry.

"...Mother, Mo'er is going to Hou's Mansion after all. She is young and she is Mrs. Hou as soon as she walks through the door. If the dowry is not enough, how can she subdue everyone in Jingyong Hou's Mansion? How can she block the crowds in the capital? Mother, Huo Jiaguang Three thousand taels of betrothal gifts have been sent, if we have fewer dowries, wouldn’t it make Jingyong Hou’s house look down on us?”

Today, when the Huo family carried the betrothal gift, many people gathered to watch. The maids and maids were all around the corridor of the main courtyard. Every item was brought in in the eyes of everyone. Huo Xue's is a person who needs face very much, and every aspect of the betrothal ceremony has been fully done. Ruan's and Cheng Yumo's faces are bright and very proud. But as soon as the outsiders left, they hurriedly came to Mrs. Cheng to discuss the dowry.

The Huo family's betrothal gift was glorious, if Cheng Yumo showed his cowardice in the dowry, wouldn't it make the whole capital ridiculed? Originally, Lord Cheng gave Cheng Yumo 2,000 taels of dowry before he left. Counting the daughters from her father-in-law, Mrs. Ruan was very satisfied with this amount, but now, Mrs. Ruan's mind became active again.

There is only so much money in the public, if Cheng Yumo wants less, then the rest must be more for the big room. The big house Cheng Enbao is still young, and it will take more than ten years to marry a woman. Cheng Yujin's marriage in the future may not be at any level. It is better to transfer her case to Cheng Yumo first, and then make it up after a year. .

Chapter 51 First Aid

Ruan Shi had the idea of ​​not taking advantage of the cheap and not taking the white, so she said: "Father left two thousand taels for Mo'er before, but the kindness and kindness have to study, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone cost money for everything, and the ink What my son got is cash, and the wedding date is so fast. If I buy furniture and jewelry now, it will definitely cost a discount. Jewelry can be melted, but furniture is the face of my daughter’s family, so I can’t be careless. My parents’ family is weak, and I am not more capable than my sister-in-law. I didn't save a lot of money in the year. I wanted wood and wood, and I didn't know what to do. I really didn't know how to arrange furniture such as wardrobes and cabinets. My daughter-in-law was only afraid that she didn't do well, and the day she carried the dowry would make Mo'er and Houfu ashamed... …”

The foreword of Nguyen's words is inconsistent with the rest of the sentence. She also said that her two sons were studying, and she said that her family was weak, and she was not sure what she wanted to say. But Cheng Yujin understood, she snorted in her heart, and knew Ruan's thoughts like the back of her hand.

Having said so much, it's not like he's staring at her. Nguyen Shi had mentioned this before. At that time, Cheng Yujin was not in a hurry and made a call in front of Qingfu and Cheng Yuanxian, and they naturally hurriedly denounced it. After that, Mrs. Cheng spoke in person, and Mrs. Ruan managed to calm down for a few days. Cheng Yujin thought that Mrs. Ruan had given up the idea, but she did not expect the dowry gift from the Marquis of Jingyong today. .

How dare you say these words again.

Mrs. Cheng also understood, and she drooped her eyes and did not speak. Seeing that everyone in the room was quiet, Ruan stabbed Cheng Yuanhan quietly, and then said, "Mother, let's just say that Mo'er's mahogany box is something that will last a lifetime and is the face of the bride. But now there are only a few left. In a month, good wood will not be found in a short time, and it will be too late for the craftsmen to fight."

After Ruan Shi finished speaking, she secretly looked at Cheng Yujin with her eyes, but Cheng Yujin didn't move, she still sat steadily on the embroidered pier, drinking tea one by one. Ruan was anxious and couldn't help but ask, "Miss, you have been exposed to a lot of good things since you were a child. What do you think?"

Cheng Yujin put down the porcelain cup and nodded with a smile: "Second Aunt is right, there is only one month left, which is indeed a bit rushed for the carpenter."
