No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

"Forget it, it will take more than ten years for our descendants to stand in the court. By then, the dispute should be over." Jia Yuan understood, sighed, and smiled at the old lady.

"So now we are talking about your marriage. This time I have chosen a confused mother-in-law for you. What should you do?" Ou Mengmeng sighed, leaning on her back and looking at the dark doorway, "What do you mean? Is it better to have a mother-in-law or a confused mother-in-law?”

"Of course the confused mother-in-law is fine." No matter what she thought in her heart, Jia Yuan had to say what she should say.Now that the two families are on the verge of breaking out, if she says that she is a powerful mother-in-law, it will not make the old lady sad.

"I didn't take Changlong seriously before. She's so fake. If we can separate the family and let you marry her as the second son's daughter-in-law, it's not impossible. I just don't like the men in their family. They think too much. , for such a family, if nothing happens, it will be a big deal. That’s why I like Xiong Er so much, but I have to let go." Ou Mengmeng waved her hand and said softly.

Jia Yuan nodded. She had seen this all the way. The old lady's preference for Xiong Er was even noticed by the new emperor in the palace.As for Zhang Zhen, it was obvious that she seemed very casual and didn't even have the idea of ​​letting her meet him. She only let Zhang Zhen glance at her from a distance.It shows that the Zhang family is a family that she can definitely deal with.

"The Zhang family is fine. My granddaughter thinks that Mr. Zhang is very sensible. He helped the eldest house eliminate hidden dangers and then separated the family. Now the second house is on its own. It's okay for the mother-in-law to be a little confused. After all, there is no eldest sister-in-law in the front. Stop it." Jia Yuan smiled.

She knew why the old lady said that. After the Huaishan County Prince's Banquet, the Zhang and Jia families had actually been in close contact with each other, and they even asked Taoist Zhang from Qingxu Temple to choose a date and negotiate an agreement in the middle.And Ou Mengmeng was a little impatient again.Because of dowry.

As I said before, even though there was no timetable, Ou Mengmeng had already started preparing Jia Yuan's dowry.Not expecting that Rong Mansion's financial situation could recover so quickly, Ou Mengmeng took out Jia's mother's assets and gave them to her children to practice, gathered the funds, and started trading.

She also didn't expect that Jia She could suddenly sell everyone in her courtyard with this magical stroke. For Ou Mengmeng, this was a reduction in staff.But for Jia She, it was a small fortune.Think about it, in the book, after Qingwen was kicked out of the Grand View Garden, Xiren took people to pack up Qingwen's things and send them out. Qingwen was relatively upright and had a private house worth 400 taels of silver.The eldest wife followed the women in charge, who wanted to cause trouble for others. Jia She sold her whole family, and all the hairpins on her body were taken away. Once they were gathered together, at least one family found thousands of taels.Otherwise, why would Jia She feel that none of those servants deserved sympathy? It was so hateful.

Jia She said, "As long as I have money, I will not treat you badly!" 'So when the old lady said that she wanted to give Jia Yuan and the others a dowry, he took out 3 taels. According to the rules, he gave the full amount first, so that I wouldn't have to worry about it.Therefore, although the Zhang family's marriage was just discussed, Jia Yuan's dowry had already been prepared.

While waiting for Taoist Zhang to come and deliver the message, the Jia family's dowry was almost ready.Zhuangzi, the land, the house, and the shops have all the things on the outside ready, and they are just waiting for the day to see what new decorations are missing.Moreover, Ou Mengmeng didn't just want to show off her lavishness. She also took out the betrothal gifts and dowries from almost everyone in the past two years as a reference.Of course it cannot be the best, it is easy to get tabooed.But we can’t just wait. This is the first granddaughter in our family to get married, which represents the standard of this generation.

Taoist Zhang was the leader in the group of boasters. He made people happy before he said what the second wife of the Zhang family asked him to say.For example, since both children are old, I don’t want to delay it any longer, so I asked him to prepare a few good days, and I thought about the Jia family. Jia Min’s death anniversary is in October, even though Jia Yuan’s birthday is in September. Gong, I also thought about the old lady, so I decided to do it after October.But after October, the day that suits them is in mid-October.So time is a little tight, and I feel a little sorry for the old lady.

But the old lady was not satisfied with the fixed date. Although she wanted Yuanchun to settle as soon as possible, she never thought it would be so urgent. She expected it to be around March next year.I didn’t say that I got married in a hurry just two months after getting engaged, which made it look like our family was in a hurry.There is another issue with the weather. It gets cold early in the north. After mid-October, it gets cold that day. It’s actually a bit difficult to arrange the drinks for a wedding at that time.Otherwise, we wouldn’t say that March to May and July to September every year are good times to entertain guests and have wine, when the spring breeze is proud and the autumn air is crisp.

Ou Mengmeng thought about it, "The Zhang family means the day after October?"

"The two wives in their family are very gentle-tempered, and I miss you the most, so they chose a date after October. They wanted to do it this year, but the two months are actually a bit tight."

Ou Mengmeng just thought about it. Although the time was tight, they had already prepared the dowry, so it was not difficult to talk about it. Without comment, she let Taoist Zhang tell the second point.

Zhang Daoshi hurriedly talked about the second point, saying that the Zhang family also knew that time was tight, so their family did not make any requirements for dowry. However, although they moved out of the Hou Mansion, the dowry for the eldest daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion was 64 yuan, and I heard that Yuanchun There is a noble concubine, and the emperor's reward is Ruyi's dowry. This will take up two loads, plus furniture and other things, there will be dozens of sets, so I ask the old lady to consider it at her discretion.I don’t want to make the Hou Mansion uncomfortable, so just press 64 if you can and get ready.The main thing is that the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion and the three young ladies of the Hou Mansion will go to the Shangshu Mansion to help. The dowry is really too much, and Mrs. Zhang Er feels sorry for Mrs. Hou.

Ou Mengmeng burst into laughter and just looked at Taoist Zhang without saying anything, just looking at him quietly.

"Old lady, it's true, the poor Taoist is just a messenger. Whatever the second wife says, the poor Taoist will pass the news on his own." Taoist Zhang smiled shyly.

"I just feel that the old god is still a god. This is true. If you are an ordinary person, you will not think that the second wife is really a rare virtuous person." Ou Mengmeng looked at Taoist Zhang with a smile, "Oh, I really want to Pry open your mouth and see if your teeth are broken."

"Originally, I didn't think that the old lady could not understand the secret. However, when a monk talks about oral ethics, he must speak more pleasantly." Taoist Zhang still smiled shyly, not caring at all. The old lady's teasing.

"The Rong Mansion has always been about rules. How people marry their daughters, how we marry, whether it's time or dowry, was originally negotiated slowly. With such two months, I'm afraid the guests won't have time to make new clothes; as for that, When it comes to dowry, if my husband's family wants to ask for too much, we won't let it get used to it; if they insist on imitating those poor families and insist on talking about things that are fake and empty, then we won't tolerate it. I still have three more to marry, and this cannot be the case. "Ou Mengmeng faked a smile and said lightly.

There are actually a lot of really confused people who can't tell their priorities. They just think they are right, or even think they are saints, but they do the most outrageous things.
