No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

"So, you like to play with children." Jia Yuan actually just heard about it, and Jia Fen's words made the old lady sad.But he couldn't scold Jia Fen, so he could only rush over to see his grandmother.But it was hard to say it directly, so I had to come over and let someone pick up Jia Cong, who was having a hard time walking.Looking at Grandma.

"That's right, I just like playing with children." Ou Mengmeng smiled and looked at Jia Cong who was taken away, feeling a little regretful. Being with such a child means there is no pressure.Seeing Jia Yuan's eyes now, I felt like I was pitied by her. After thinking about it, I felt that I had to ask something, so I asked, "How is your mother-in-law?"

"What can you do? Leave the housework to me and tell me very happily that she can accompany me to ask my aunt for advice." Although Jia Yuan had only been with her mother-in-law for a day, she was a little helpless.

"What did you do?" Ou Mengmeng looked at her granddaughter.

"What did you ask me to say on the first day? Of course I went to say hello to my uncle and aunt. But their uncle and aunt were pretty good, and they kept telling me that they had to take over the housework. The aunt also gave me a detailed breakdown of the family division. He gave me a share, and also mentioned the old man’s rules for dividing the family in front of my mother-in-law, saying that it was written into the family rules and that it would be distributed to the two brothers-in-law in the same way in the future, so I had to work harder. My mother-in-law was actually very happy to hear it. ." Jia Yuan nodded helplessly to her grandmother.

"People's hearts will change. Before the family was divided, your mother-in-law followed your eldest aunt every day, but the third and fourth bedrooms were all watching, and she couldn't do anything. Now that the family is divided, I'm afraid it was good at first, but now she has to I feel bad. Your mother-in-law must be confused, otherwise, she would have been provoked again." Ou Mengmeng frowned.

Why should you give the list of property to your nephew-in-law when you separate the family?I’ve given you a list of your property. Where are your property?Just give the list to your daughter-in-law, but don't you want to separate her and her parents-in-law later?Fortunately, Zhang Shangshu trusted his eldest son and his eldest daughter-in-law (who was disappointed and discouraged by his wife). Otherwise, he would have thought that his eldest daughter-in-law was troublesome.And the same goes for the mother-in-law. Even Ou Mengmeng herself did not say that she would take out all of her body, but she would release it little by little so that her children and grandchildren would be grateful.But he knows that his own children are not as good as his wealth.If everything is given to her children, then she is not far from death.

"So, now I can't even touch my mother-in-law." Jia Yuan had the same idea as the old lady. When Mrs. Zhang Hou gave her the family division list and the family rules set by the first generation Hou, she subconsciously looked at her parents-in-law.Moreover, she felt that apart from the list of family assets, there was also a problem with the family rules. The family rules were inherited by the old man from the Hou Mansion, and the descendants who separated from the family did not have that much family property to support such dignity.The total amount of property was divided between the second house and the second house. According to the old man's "family rules", if the second house was divided like this, there would really be nothing left for the legitimate eldest son.

The father-in-law was noncommittal, but the mother-in-law nodded.My husband was pretty good, so he stood up and thanked me without looking at it.He said that this family and the government office had it, so there was no need to get another copy.Then the topic was changed, and everyone had lunch before returning to Shangshu Mansion.

"Your dowry probably made the Hou family feel uncomfortable." Ou Mengmeng didn't know how much of the property the Zhang family's second bedroom received, but she did remember Mrs. Quanfu mentioning it when she came back after delivering the dowry.

In ancient times, there were also procedures for dowry. The dowry was first displayed at the natal family, and then the close women came to add the dowry in person.After waiting for the ceremony to be over, the bride will be given the makeup the next day. We can’t let the bride go to her husband’s house and decorate the new house on the spot, right?So the dowry goes before the person.

Mrs. Quanfu and the matchmaker sent her over, and together with her in-laws' relatives, she applied her makeup again, carried it into the bride's courtyard, and arranged it properly.A few servants from my mother's family will also go over first. They say they are waiting on her, but they are actually guarding the house.

Of course, things like the money in the box and the real estate deed should be placed among the bride's personal belongings and then go with the bride.To represent these industries, the dowry was carried and replaced with bricks, stones and earth.A discerning person will know at a glance that the bride has a house, a floor, and a store.

When Mrs. Quanfu came back to give her orders, she said, "Your family's dowry really shocked her husband's family." 'When the words came to an end, Ou Mengmeng acted as if she didn't understand. She rewarded him with a smile and said thank you.Then go through the process of getting married.

Now it seems that Dafang is the one who is stimulated.So Mrs. Zhang Er is a fool. She said at the beginning that the Jia family's dowry was not allowed to be too generous.Now if you go according to the Jia family's way, you will feel uncomfortable.There's nothing we can do about it.Of course, Ou Mengmeng estimated that the Marquis now understood that the Marquis, who had no second bedroom and only had an empty title of Marquis, suddenly realized that they were nothing.

The second brother has a real job, and the second brother has two daughters who have married into the royal family. Although the eldest son of the second brother is only in the sixth grade, he first went to Hanlin Academy, then to the Ministry of Household Affairs, and now to Shuntian Mansion. This is the standard path to the Prime Minister.Twenty years later, Zhang Zhen can go one step further than Zhang Shangshu.

However, Ou Mengmeng is not afraid.The Zhang family gave a betrothal gift of 5000 taels, and the Jia family put it all in the dowry and returned it.And according to the old etiquette, if you pay five thousand, I will give back ten thousand, and also give the bride price to the married woman, to show that I am not selling my daughter.There is nothing inappropriate about this, so you can’t blame us.

"My parents-in-law are quite satisfied." Jia Yuan smiled. The dowry greatly satisfied the vanity of my parents-in-law. After all, they really opened an office and built a mansion, and Zhang Shangshu's family also had its own social circle. On the day of the wedding, Prince Zhongshun and the Wang family of Huaishan were all there. Seeing the dowry, the two aunts of the Zhang family were also proud.This represents the importance the Jia family attaches to the Zhang family.

Zhang Shangshu only became independent in middle age. He felt a little sorry for his eldest brother before, but gradually, he went home by himself, without having to go to see his eldest brother first to say hello, and he didn't have any good things, like secretly taking them back to the second room to follow him. As embarrassed as a thief.His reputation as an upright official was because he lived in the Hou Mansion, with his eldest brother above him and his third and fourth sons below him. The whole family was watching, and even though he could think clearly as clear as water and as clear as a mirror, he couldn't.It wasn't what he was thinking about now, but when he walked into the house, he was the only master here. The sense of relaxation was really different.

"So concentrate on cleaning up the housework! Otherwise, how can we share the property with my brother-in-law." Ou Mengmeng shook her head. Normal people would be satisfied. They married their eldest son a rich wife, but she didn't want her granddaughter to be deceived by the so-called love. After all, there are still two brothers-in-law, they get married, the family is separated, and the in-laws have never managed the house independently, so there are many things in between. Think about it, "Well, how much of the family property will your in-laws give you?"

"Give it all to me, even her dowry. My father-in-law said that it's not easy for men to take care of the money. Let me manage it carefully. When my mother-in-law gave me the dowry, she said it would be divided equally between the three sons. My husband said that we should divide the dowry property of my mother-in-law now so that the two uncles will not complain that we took advantage of them in the future." Jia Yuan took Ou Mengmeng's arm and walked with her.

Well, I'm on vacation, but getting ready to move.Thinking about how I have to pack up so many books, move them to a new house, and then put them on the bookshelves bit by bit, I feel like the world has collapsed.
