No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 297 The dowry of the Jia family’s daughter

"Whether the Xue family agrees or not, we have done our best. If we really find a wealthy concubine for her, which one of her mother-in-law or sister-in-law will be compatible? The dowry is not enough for people to scheme against." Jia She also nodded, he didn't Concerned about Baochai, what he cared about was whether this matter would have an impact on the Rong Mansion and the Jia Family Society. Thinking about it now, since the old lady mentioned it, it must have been something she had thought deeply about.

Baochai was younger than the second girl, and Jiji was held in the Xue family. The two wives of the Wang family and the Wang family's grandma Ren all went, but the old lady sat upright, because now in the capital, except for a few concubines in the palace, Even the old princess of Beijing does not have as much prestige as the old lady of the Jia family.Who can compare to the old lady who can revitalize Ning Rong's second residence?Even the old saint who left the palace admired this.The most respectable relatives the Xue family knew were the Jia and Wang families.

And because of Wang Ren's marriage, Aunt Xue didn't have much trouble on her face, but she definitely hated her two sisters-in-law in her heart.Otherwise, if she cries and makes a fuss and wants to hang herself, how can Baochai still remain intact?It is said that they are parents who cannot resist their children.In fact, there are very few children who can defeat their parents.

Therefore, at Baochai's wedding banquet, even though Jia Wang (Mrs. Wang) was not present, the Jia family's presence at the banquet greatly exceeded that of the Wang family.Miss Wang's family did not attend that day, but Wang Ren's wife gave each of the little sisters something.

Although that day was a good day for Baochai, Baochai had to worry about everything on his own. It was also that day, Aunt Xue asked the old lady to help Baochai look at his family.Aunt Xue felt aggrieved and cried just thinking about it.Obviously her daughter is so good, but when Jia Ying passed by Ji Ji's provocative post, it was like snowflakes. When she arrived at her daughter's place, she went out to socialize together and met the same people. It was obvious that her daughter was prettier. However, in the end, just a few families settled down, but still I pray for the concubine of the family, or the concubine of a concubine.It's really disgusting.

Ou Mengmeng came back and talked to her brothers. What she originally wanted to do was to choose someone from the army. The reckless men in the army didn't care so much. If the girl is good-looking, has a decent dowry, and can help with promotion, she is a good wife.However, this old lady looked down upon her. Even if she had no feelings for Baochai, she would not send her away so casually.

Therefore, after such a long time, the old lady suddenly mentioned it. She probably wanted to talk to the Xue family about Jin Rong before Jia Ying made her engagement public.It shows that they have not forgotten this.As for whether the Xue family agrees or not, Jia She really doesn't care. To be honest with Jin Rong, he is also a scholar. When your father comes in front of him, he has to bow long and call him "Master Xiucai".

"Baochai has decided, does Ying'er really want to choose Brother Chong? Although his son also likes Brother Chong and treats him as his own son, but is his temper a bit out of control?" Jia Zheng still wanted to change the subject. Jia Ying's marriage has come up. He really likes Zhao Chong, but let alone their son-in-law. If the eldest brother says he wants to go out for a fight, Zhao Chong can roll up his sleeves and follow him. He doesn't even think about it. He is a high-level imperial physician. .This silly boy has really become their uncle, and Jia Zheng feels like he is going crazy.

"Ying'er has a bit of a boring temperament. She is a good daughter and a good sister. She manages the house and finances, and manages the middle class. She has no problem, but her temper is too quiet. Although it is not that it won't hurt even if a needle is pricked, it is still painful. A temper that can't be said. Chong'er has a good temper. I just found out today that Chong'er has a better temper than the boss. Your eldest brother's temper is still a little darker, and you are more pessimistic. Chong'er is very bright and optimistic. I think this I like it very much. When Ying'er is with him, she should be dumbfounded at first, but slowly she will become happy." Ou Mengmeng couldn't help but laugh after thinking about it. She looked at her two old sons and patted their faces gently. "You are pessimistic, gloomy, and see the worst in everything. This is just like me, and it doesn't matter. However, this does not deter me from being a child who likes to see light and warmth."

"Yes!" Jia Zheng smiled after thinking about it. He thought what my mother said was quite interesting and nodded quickly.

Marriage must always satisfy the parties involved. Baochai can make the decision on Baochai's marriage. If she agrees, the matter will not go away.So on the second day, after breakfast, when the sisters were preparing to go to Qiantou to study and be a trustee, Ou Mengmeng stopped Jia Ying and Baochai, "You come with me to see green onions."

Now, whoever the old lady asked to look at the onions with her was talking. The other three looked at each other, bowed hurriedly, and went to Jiangyunxuan to be the director.The current Rongfu is not the former Rongguo. The news will spread throughout the whole government like the wind, and within half a day, the whole capital will know about it.At this time, the real master of the Rong Mansion did not speak, and the girls and women below him could make people think that they were made of wax.Don’t speak, don’t listen, don’t see.Each one's mouth was as tight as if it had been sewn shut.So the old lady and Zhao Chong were talking about their marriage. Amber actually knew about it, but he didn't even know about it.Under such circumstances, the sisters got used to it. If the old lady wanted them to know, she would tell them.When she arrived at the onion altar, Ou Mengmeng quickly put on her reading glasses and began to carefully observe whether her onion seedlings were growing more lush.

Jia Ying and Baochai were used to it, so they hurriedly helped look at the weeds that were sprouting up. They hurriedly pointed out the weeds to the old lady and asked her to pull them out with her own hands, ensuring that the old lady had grown these onions herself.

After walking around the onion altar twice, she looked up at the two of them. They looked a bit like actors from the 15 version, but they were also prettier and younger.I heard that the actors were seventeen or eighteen years old at the time, but compared to the real [-]-year-old girls at this time, they were still worse.Moreover, they all received special training and grew up, and the rules were the same as measuring with a ruler. Even the actors in the [-] version received two years of training, but compared to those who were born and grew up in such glory and wealth. For a big person, the difference is not a little bit worse.

In fact, the old lady called them. How could the two smartest people in the Red Mansion not guess that after the hairpin is over, the family will be preparing to select someone. Although the news from outside has not yet come in, Ou Mengmeng has already asked them to prepare to take inventory of the warehouse. .The implication is very obvious.The old lady prepared warehouses for all five of them to store the dowries they prepared themselves.

At first, Jia She and Jia Zhen handed over all the dowry money from Sichun.Ou Mengmeng received five thousand each.Because as mentioned before, she paid half of Jia Yuan's dowry as compensation for Jia Yuan.As for the others, she gave 5000 taels to each of them individually. Each of you has 5000 taels, so you can save your own dowry.

Daiyu and Baochai thought it was fun, so they each went home and took 5000 taels. The five of them helped each other, and now they all have at least 1 taels of silver in their hands.

This does not include buying clothing materials and furs when I find good ones over the years, and there is also prepared wood in the warehouse, which is all high-quality old camphor wood shipped from the south of the Yangtze River.They were all shipped from the old house in Jinling. Who would have thought that when Jia Zhen went back to deal with the family property, she found that there were many heavy and inexpensive things in the old house's warehouse.Thinking about it, I put it all back. I happened to be marrying a daughter, so these are all useful.

Therefore, each of the girls in the Jia family is better than the other, and Jia Jue is the happiest because she is the youngest. When she reaches fifteen, she feels that she can simply not get married.

My mother came back today, and I should be counting down the moving time starting tomorrow.
