Mingmen Family

Chapter 259 Hand in the salary card

They went to the post station to discuss with Chen Zhen in the morning, and Lu Guanyi came in the afternoon. Apart from servants with gifts, there was also a smart master who acted as a matchmaker for them.

"Haha, Master Zhizhi is here, and the humble house is full of splendor." Ye Chongming personally went out to welcome Master Zhihui in.

In the past two years, the relationship between the Ye family and Master Zhizhi has become closer. Except for the time when Ye Yaming went to Huizhou and Fujian, the rest of the time, he would take time to go to Chongshan Temple every month, bringing tea and tea made by himself. Let the cook carefully make dim sum to visit Master Zhizhi, and make tea for him in person.

Because men and women are different, Ye Chongming will accompany each time.

Therefore, not only the jasmine tea made by Ye Yaming and the Tieguanyin tea brought back from Minzhou, but also black tea. After sending it to Lu Guanyi at the border, Ye Yaming went to Chongshan Temple the next day Black tea is offered to the intelligent master.

The "Tea Art" and "Tea Ceremony" she wrote later were also sent to Master Zhizhi as soon as possible, and asked him to review them to see what was poorly written or improperly written.

Therefore, as soon as Lu Guanyi went to invite him at noon today, Master Zhihui happily came to Ye's house with him.

After everyone entered the hall and took their seats, Master Zhihui performed his duties as a matchmaker and discussed with Ye Chongming about the time of marriage.

Although Ye Chongming knew the date set by the two young people from Ye Yaming, as a woman, he had to be more reserved, expressing his reluctance to marry the girl and wanting to keep her at home for a longer period of time.

He repeatedly stated that he wanted Ye Yaming to get married later, and moved the date of marriage as far back as possible.

After repeated persuasion by Master Zhizhi, Ye Chongming finally agreed to get married on the ninth day of October.

After confirming the date of the marriage, Ye Chongming sincerely said to Lu Guanyi: "Zimo, you know the situation of my family. Although I have three sons, all three sons combined are not as intelligent as Ming'er. It can be said that The Ye family can have what it is today, it all depends on Ming'er. So I abolished the position of the eldest son as the head of the family and made Ming'er the next head of the Ye family, which is also agreed by my three sons."

"Now Longjing has become a tribute tea, and black tea has to be transported to Dajin. This is not just a matter of my Ye family, it is related to the court. The sale of tea and tea sets in Huizhou and Minzhou is also related to you and Mr. Qi." Related. These things are inseparable from Ming'er. So, after she gets married, can you give her some time and freedom so that she can return to Lin'an from time to time to take care of the business?"

Ye Yaming told Ye Chongming about this matter, but Ye Chongming felt that it would be better for him to raise it with Lu Guanyi.

His request is not too much, just "from time to time".To prevent Lu Guanyi from feeling dissatisfied and treating Ye Yaming coldly.

Hearing Ye Chongming's pleading so humble, Ye Yaming felt sad, and felt very sad for the women of this era.

In modern times, even if a woman is married, she still has the right to personal freedom and work.But in this ancient time, as long as you get married, no matter what you do, you have to get the consent of your husband's family, even if you go back to your mother's family.

She looked at Lu Guanyi.

Although this marriage was bestowed by the emperor, it cannot be divorced at will.Lu Guanyi also expressed his agreement to her return to Lin'an to take care of things.But his answer at this moment determines her attitude towards him in the future.

Lu Guanyi's attitude was also very sincere.

He said: "Grandfather, don't worry, Yaming told me about this. After we get married, we will live there until the New Year. After the fifteenth day, I will go to the border and Yaming will come back to Lin'an. From now on, she will live in Lin'an. She What she is doing is too important to the court, I will not detain her in the house and prevent her from coming out to do things."

A gratified smile suddenly appeared on Ye Chongming's face: "Thank you Zimo."

Both Mrs. Ye and Ye Hongsheng showed satisfied expressions.

Although Yin Shi didn't have any thoughts about Ye Yaming's work or not, she was also very happy to hear that Ye Yaming would live in Lin'an in the future.

She has no son, so she naturally hopes that her daughter can marry closer so that they can take care of each other.

Master Zhizhi also praised and said: "Zimo, you are right. A child like Yaming is blessed by the heavens and the earth, and is favored by the gods. If you detain her in the back house, God will not agree. "

These words reached Ye Chongming's heart.

Lu Guanyi gestured to Antai, and Antai handed a small box in his hand to Bairui.

"This is the key to my house in Lin'an City and the 8 taels of silver notes. After my grandparents passed away, they left their savings to me. Except for cooperating with you, investing in tea business and hiring money, the rest is basically Here it is. You can tidy up the yard Minger as you like; you can decide what to add and how many servants you need to add."

Ye Yaming was very satisfied with the act of handing over the salary card.

She is not short of money, what she wants is Lu Guanyi's attitude.

She was also polite: "Okay, then I will take the money first."

Bai Rui stepped forward and took the box.

Ye Yaming asked again: "How to clean up this house, what to add, do you have any requirements?"

Lu Guanyi shook his head: "I don't have any requirements, you can do as you like."

The two of them chatted back and forth, like an old married couple, Master Zhizhi and the four members of the Ye family were surprised, but also felt a little funny.

Ye Chongming naturally hopes that Ye Yaming and Lu Guanyi will have a good relationship, and that the two can get along and talk more.

He left the guest and said: "Master Zhizhi is not in a hurry to go back to the temple, is he? Why don't we sit in the garden and have a cup of tea? Have dinner before leaving?"

Master Zhizhi naturally knew that Ye Chongming wanted to keep his grandson-in-law, so he stroked his beard and smiled, "I'm fine, but Zimo is not free."

Lu Guanyi apologized and said: "Grandfather, I have to go back to the capital with Mr. Chen early in the morning, and then go to the border. I want to go to Qi Mansion for a while."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chongming immediately said: "It should be, it should be."

Lu Guanyi is Mrs. Qi's nephew, and he has a good relationship with Qi Ji. He came to Lin'an, so naturally he had to pay a visit to Qi Mansion.Ye Chongming, as the grandfather of the in-law's family who is about to take office, naturally hoped that his grandson-in-law would have a good relationship with the prefect of Qi.

After they left, Ye Chongming said to Ye Yaming: "Go to the room, let's discuss about your dowry."

"There's nothing to discuss, right? Just buy me the dowry you bought for the second sister. I have no objection."

The Ye family married Ye Yaqing with two shops and a farm in Lin'an City, plus some jewelry, silk and satin, and 2000 taels of silver at the bottom of the box.

"Your grandmother and your mother showed you quite a few shops, and there are several in the farm. You can choose. Besides, don't you have money yourself? You should buy a good one, lest you spend time and effort to choose it yourself. " Ye Chongming said.
