urge Zhao to marry

Chapter 66 After Marriage 2
This morning, when the bride offered tea, Mr. Meng also came over, but he was talking with his son, grandson, nephew.

Mrs. Meng was originally talking to the third sister-in-law and Mu Zhaozhao, but she also saw that the second daughter-in-law and the fifth sister-in-law were not getting along very well.

But she also pretended not to hear.

After all, the second daughter-in-law will also be in charge of the house in the future, if even the fifth wife can't handle it, how will she socialize in the future?

When she saw her son and daughter-in-law coming in, she came to Meng Huichun's side, and said respectfully: "Father, please sit up, the newcomer is here to greet you."

"Oh!" Although the old man is almost 70 years old, his beard and hair are half white, but his body is still very strong. When he saw his son coming to help him, he pushed his hand away in disgust, and sat down on his seat.

The bride should wear red for the first three days as a good omen.

Yu Wanniang is also dressed up today, a big red beanie embroidered with pomegranate flowers, on her head she still wears the set of emerald green hairpins and red jade gourd earrings that she entered the door yesterday, she still looks festive and charming.

Especially last night was the night of festive candles, which made her look like a dead tree in spring, and today she has a bit of the beauty of a newlywed mother. If she didn't know that Mu Zhaozhao is her biological daughter, she might think she is still young.

After Su Shuyuan took a look, she bit her lip in jealousy, and then saw that her husband was still staring at Yu Wanniang, and under the cover of her sleeve, she quietly and forcefully twisted his arm.

Erye Meng, who was in pain, immediately looked away, leaned into her ear and explained in a low voice: "Isn't this the first time I've seen you?"

Although he thought that his eldest brother's newly married sister-in-law was gorgeous, he had seen many people who were prettier than her. To his surprise, the sister-in-law looked very young, so he was taken aback.

The servant girl put a cushion on the old man and asked the newlyweds to serve tea first.

The old man took Yu Wanniang's tea and took a sip, said a good word, then handed her a mahogany box, and said a few more polite words to signal the couple to get up.

Meng Yu got up first, stretched out his hand to support Yu Wanniang thoughtfully, then smiled at Mu Zhaozhao: "Zhaozhao, come and kowtow to your great-grandfather."

As soon as he said this, apart from the old man, Mr. Meng and his wife, Second Master Meng, and Qin Mu looked calm, and all the juniors present or standing were more or less surprised.

You must know that in the Daqing Dynasty, the dowry of the woman after marriage belonged to the woman herself, but if the widow remarried, if the children she brought with her did not belong to the man's genealogy, it meant that the children were raised by the woman herself.

It's like relatives and friends renting at the man's house.

Then Mrs. Meng led Mu Zhaozhao to see the ceremony with everyone before, and it can be regarded as having seen the ceremony, and everyone has already given a meeting gift.

Now that Meng Yu asks Mu Zhaozhao to kowtow to the old man again, the meaning is different, that is, Mu Zhaozhao has been treated in the Meng family tree.

That is, when Mu Zhaozhao got married, the Meng family had to prepare a dowry for her, so that would be too cheap for her, right?

Therefore, Mrs. Fifth couldn't help but said: "A Yu, I heard that Zhao Zhao didn't belong to the Meng family tree, and now you ask her to kowtow to your father, are you trying to give her a dowry for nothing?"

Meng Yu is also a person who is in good spirits on happy occasions, facing her doubts at this moment, he still smiled gently: "Aunt Wu, Zhaozhao does not forget that her father should not have a surname, that is because she is filial and courteous, but Zhaozhao will be my daughter from now on, Then she is naturally the eldest lady of the Meng Mansion."

Master Meng also nodded in agreement: "Boss is right."

Mrs. Meng saw that the fifth sister-in-law was not reconciled and wanted to say something, and she didn't want her to cause trouble for herself on this happy day, so she said very ruthless words in a very gentle tone: " Five brothers and sisters, we have already separated, and when your children get married, they will not lose their share in the public, so it is enough for the father-in-law and the elderly to agree to the obvious things."

When Mrs. Meng Wu heard this, her heart ached.

That's right, her husband is a concubine. When the family was separated, they were given 1 taels of silver, which wasn't enough for them to buy a small yard.

From then on, this old mansion of the Meng family has nothing to do with them.

In fact, in the capital, such a separation is considered kind.

Not only did they give them 1 taels of silver to settle down, but there was also a second courtyard in Dongcheng that cost almost 1 taels of silver.

They were allowed to take the furniture and other things from the yard before. When their sons and daughters got married, according to the rules of the public, the sons could get 2000 taels when they got married, and the daughters could get 1000 taels when they married.

Maybe when the old man dies, he can also get some good things that the old man nominates for someone.

But they disliked that there were not many high-ranking officials and nobles living in the East City. When buying a house, they wanted to save face and had to choose it near the old house. The house price in Herring Street is not cheap now, and it is two-entry, and it costs nearly 2 taels of silver. It's really not ridiculously expensive.

Mrs. Meng Wu was really not reconciled, so she looked at Su Shuyuan and asked, "We have separated and have nothing to say, but you have not separated, so don't you think about your three children?"

In fact, they don't know how much money the Meng family will have, but they always feel that the amount they get will not hurt the Meng family, so they want to make troubles even more.

Su Shuyuan was really unhappy. Originally, her daughter was the eldest lady of the Meng family, but now she became the second lady for no reason.

Also, Mu Zhaozhao is not too young, and will marry soon, isn't this a waste of money?

But she didn't dare to confront her mother-in-law openly, she pulled the handkerchief with both hands, and said in a shy way: "I think sister-in-law's dowry is so rich, I'm afraid they don't think much of the money given by the father-in-law?"

She said this because she wanted Yu Wanniang to refuse in person.

Benefits are at the forefront, and Yu Wanniang's dowry is indeed more magnificent than hers, which makes her feel very sad, so she naturally said these words according to Fifth Aunt's intention.

Yu Wanniang knew in her heart that Meng Yu prepared her large dowry and fur materials for herself.

Besides, he has already given Zhuangzi and a shop, which already made her feel embarrassed, and now she naturally doesn't want to offend his family because of the money from the father, so she took advantage of the situation and said: "How can I look down on this father?" What about the extra money given by the government? What's more, it was the wish of my grandfather and parents, but I don't want to embarrass the elders because of this, so I ask my grandfather and parents to withdraw their kindness."

Mrs. Meng was a little satisfied with the attitude of the eldest daughter-in-law, but she was a little displeased with the pettiness of the second daughter-in-law, and she simply stared at her second son: "Didn't I mention this to you before? Didn't you agree to it? Now Go back on it again?"

Meng Rong hurriedly got up and went to her mother to apologize: "Mom, I didn't go back on my word. I forgot to mention this to her. Don't be angry."

After speaking, he winked at his daughter-in-law.

He really forgot, because he knew that his mother's dowry was rich, at least tens of thousands of taels of silver, and there were several Zhuangzi shops.

The eldest sister passed away early, and most of the stepmother's dowry must have been given to him and the eldest brother.

Therefore, even if he doesn't have much money in his pocket now, he is never afraid of running out of money in the future.

As for his salary, he has never handed it over to the public school. He would not buy any expensive calligraphy and painting decorations, and he would not think about his own wife's dowry. 'Come on.

Su Shuyuan averted her eyes, still unwilling to let the oil bottle go so cheaply.

"I think it's okay if the second child's family doesn't want it?" Mrs. Meng was not angry, but took Mu Zhaozhao's hand and smiled: "Good boy, your eldest aunt left early, and only your eldest cousin was left behind." Brother, when grandma is a hundred years old, grandma's dowry will be divided between you, Yi'er and your eldest cousin, right?"

"Mother!" Su Shuyuan's face turned pale when she heard this, and immediately knelt down: "Mother, I don't want to, I just think that 1000 taels of silver is a bit small, and I want Zhaozhao to be as beautiful as my sister-in-law in the future." It's better to get married."

She barely made an excuse for herself: "I just blamed the second master, and didn't tell me about such a big matter. This is why I deliberately made troubles. It's because my daughter-in-law is ignorant. You, please don't be angry."

No matter how stupid she is, she still knows that her mother-in-law's dowry is definitely not comparable to the little silver in the palace.

She didn't want her children not to be assigned to her mother-in-law's private house because of herself.

"Since you don't have any objections, that's fine." Mrs. Meng was smiling all the time, and only now patted Mu Zhaozhao's hand, and said gently, "Good boy, go kowtow to great-grandfather?"

Mu Zhaozhao obediently agreed, and went to kowtow to recognize his relative.

Don't think that she really doesn't understand these things when she is young. Mrs. Meng, a cheap grandmother, is just like a tiger with a smile on her face. Through her recognition of her relatives, she not only made the sisters-in-law of the separated family fear her, but also took the opportunity to clean up the indiscriminate ones. young daughter-in-law.

Most importantly, he also took the opportunity to build a wave of goodwill in front of their mothers.

In order to treat the granddaughter who does not want to enter the Meng family tree, but is willing to treat her as her own granddaughter, she did not hesitate to suppress another daughter-in-law.

This is simply the best mother-in-law.

At least Yu Wanniang looked at her mother-in-law very gratefully, and she would never think about the prestige her mother-in-law gave before she entered the door.

And even if Mu Zhaozhao understood Mrs. Meng's thoughts, she was still grateful to her and was willing to take the trouble to let everyone know how satisfied she was with her mother.

It is also in case someone thinks that the mother brought him to remarry, and will neglect their mother and daughter.

Hey, this is the old fox, Mu Zhaozhao feels that he still has a lot to learn.

After that, the recognition of relatives went smoothly. Even if everyone was dissatisfied in their hearts, they were all kind on the surface.

After recognizing the relatives, Mrs. Meng waved her hand to signal the newlyweds to go back and have a rest first, and everyone will have a reunion dinner together at noon.

Mu Zhaozhao felt that his stepfather would not want to see him clinging to his mother at this moment, so he went back to rest in his yard in a sensible way.

After the little maid came in with a beautifully carved red lacquer box, she looked around like a thief, then quickly closed the door, leaned in front of her and said excitedly: "Miss, you sent it, you I received a lot of greeting gifts in two days!"
