Shao family has a daughter

Chapter 32
Family law?Shao Jingyu was dumbstruck with fright.

From childhood to adulthood, not to mention being taught by his father's family law, he seldom even received a severe reprimand.After all, there was no one from the East Court before, not only was he the youngest son, but he was also the only male in the Shao family.Shao Yuanheng and the Rong family are very fond of each other, and he is sweet and talkative, so he often goes in and out of Prince Qing's mansion, so life is naturally going smoothly.

Shao Jingyu instinctively hid behind his mother, "Mother, save me!" He accidentally touched his scalded hand, and immediately screamed like a pig, "It hurts, it hurts...it hurts so much."

"Jing Yu!" Mrs. Rong hurriedly turned around to look at her son's hands, which were scalded badly, and a bunch of blisters looked like grapes. , You still want to beat him? And my Tongyun, sorry to see you."

The more I thought about it, the more I hated it. All these tragedies were caused by the East Courtyard.

How intimate was the family of four before they came?How beautiful?Ever since they came, the West Court has been suffering again and again, it's just horrible!So he cried sadly: "Don't hit Jing Yu, hurry up and ask someone to come over with a rope, and strangle our wives to death, that's serious. My life, why is it so hard?"

She cried, and Shao Jingyu cried too.

Shao Yuanheng had a headache when he heard that, seeing their mother and son hugging each other and crying bitterly, it was pitiful, and when he thought of his daughter's chastity being quarreled with and his son's scalded hand, it was already miserable enough in the west courtyard.As for the East Courtyard, even though they were frightened many times, at least it didn't hurt the slightest bit, and Minghui's marriage was also settled.

Some families are happy and some are sad, why bother to add salt to Rong's wounds?Besides, the son's hand was injured, how can he beat him?If you really played a good or bad game, wouldn't you pick your own heart?After thinking about it, I didn't say anything to make people take the family law.

But he was also worried that the mother and son of the Rong family would not give up and cause another disaster, so they did not soften their expressions, but coldly said, "There will be no next time! You all give me a little peace of mind in the future, otherwise I will never forgive you lightly." !"

With a flick of his sleeves, he slammed the door and went to the study.

Rong waited for her husband to leave, sneered a few times, and slowly stopped crying.

Then I remembered the thing about my daughter instigating my son, and I couldn't help but get angry.He dragged his son to the wing room, took the hands that were scorching hot, and asked his daughter, "Tong Yun, how could you let Jing Yu do that kind of thing? Look, look at his hands!" "

"Why is it so hot?" Shao Tongyun felt distressed seeing his brother injured, "Be careful, don't touch it again."

"Tong Yun!" Rong's tone increased, "I told you not to tell Jing Yu."

Shao Tongyun sneered inwardly. In her mother's eyes, she really only had a baby brother—that was a male, who she relied on for the rest of her life. She was not only a daughter, but also a useless daughter.

Shao Jingyu defended his sister, "I don't blame my sister, it's all my fault that Xianhui pushed her into the water, and I want to avenge my sister!" He grinned and sucked in his breath, "Hiss...it's all the fault of the Fourth County King today, If he hadn't yelled, I wouldn't have fallen, and I would have splashed on Xianhui long ago."

Xian Hui pushed her daughter into the water?Rong Shi was startled, and then realized that her daughter had lied, not only that, but she instigated her son to cause trouble, and in the end she hurt him instead.Hearing his son's tone, he still didn't know how to restrain himself, so he couldn't help scolding, "Be more honest in the future, don't come up with any more crazy ideas. You are jade, they are porcelain, what will you do if it breaks?"

Shao Jingyu pouted, turned his face away and remained silent.

Rong couldn't help blaming her daughter again, "If you want to say this, I blame you. If you didn't talk nonsense with Jing Yu, how could he burn his hand? You."

"Nonsense?" Shao Tongyun laughed angrily, "Okay, I'll tell the truth!" With resentment and hatred in his eyes, he said every word: "I would rather burn my hands than burn my hands because You made a mistake in your plan, and instead let me be insulted by the king of the county!"

Shao Jingyu's expression changed drastically in fright, "Insult? What insult?!"

"Tongyun!" Mrs. Rong hurriedly covered her son's ears, but it was too late, and she couldn't help being angry and anxious, "Your brother was injured because of you, and he was burned like this, why are you telling him these dirty things?" ? Do you still have a conscience?"

"Bang!" There was a crisp sound, and a blue and white porcelain vase fell to pieces.

Shao Tongyun was so angry that he said, "Is it dirty to talk about it? Is it bad to hear it? What about me, do I deserve to be trampled into the mud?" Pointing at his mother's face, he shouted: "Take your darling son, get out! Get out as far away as possible!"

Rong's face was pale and trembling, unable to speak, then he gritted his teeth and pulled his son out.

Shao Tongyun sat softly on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

No one cares about themselves, no, not one!Cousin, father, mother, and even younger brother, they all only care about them, instead of pity and care for themselves.She gritted her teeth in tears and swore that she would live, take revenge, and let everyone be trampled under her feet!

On the other end, Shao Yuanheng went to the study alone to sit quietly.

He calmed down and thought about it, no, no, it's too messy!Now the whole Shao family is in chaos.If I continue to do nothing like this, the people in the west courtyard will jump up and down, and the east courtyard will definitely not keep swallowing their anger. I don't know what disaster will happen, so I have to cut the mess quickly!
The next day, someone beat up the boy who was found to be arsonist.That man was Shao Jingyu's nanny, and the nanny cried and begged, but Shao Yuanheng showed no mercy, and he was beaten until the boy's ass was smashed, and finally he and the nanny were kicked out of Shao's mansion.

Even Shao Jingyu, who came to beg for mercy, would have almost been punished if someone hadn't stopped him.Shao Yuanheng ordered him to recuperate well in the house, and he was not allowed to go anywhere without his permission.

Shocked by such a thunderstorm, the entire Shao Mansion fell silent.

Soon, Shao Yuanheng had someone check out the Lu family.

He didn't bother me anymore, but asked the matchmaker to find Lu Jian's aunt, and promised: "There is a lady from a rich family who has a lot of money, and she wears gold, silver, silk and satin. I am in a hurry to get married, and I am willing to pay the dowry and dowry. I just want to find a good husband. Your family's Lu Jian is a lucky one. He has a reputation, is young and handsome, and the family fell in love with him."

Mrs. Lu thought about it in her heart——if she is willing to pay the dowry and dowry to marry her daughter, it is probably not for the simple reason of avoiding the three-year beauty election, maybe there is something wrong with it, but what does that matter?As long as the other party has money, it can save a lot of money, not to mention expenses, maybe I can make a fortune myself.

She rolled her eyes and asked in a low voice, "How much is the family's dowry and dowry willing to pay?"

Shao Yuanheng only wanted to marry Shao Tongyun as soon as possible, and he didn't have time to pick and choose, so he carefully inquired about Lu Jian's situation.

Originally, the whole family lived in Xianzhi Town, and the parents bought tofu every day to earn a little money. Because Jiang had better husbands and schools, they dragged their children here.But the houses in Jiangdu are so expensive. In order to save money, Lu Jian's father defected to his cousin and borrowed a small vacant courtyard.

It's agreed, I will borrow it until the autumn of the next year.If Lu Jianneng was in high school, the Lu family would sell everything and buy a house in the outskirts of the city; if he failed the exam, he would not have the fate to be an official, and Jiangdu would be too expensive, so naturally he would go back to Xianzhi Town.

Mrs. Lu was very reluctant to do this, but because of her husband, she never opened her mouth to push him out.

And Lu Jian's parents owed favors to his cousin and his wife, so they were naturally more polite.At that time, as long as Mrs. Lu promises to impress her with a brocade, and then let her come forward to talk about the marriage, there are seven or eight times out of ten.

The matchmaker stretched out her hand to compare, and said with a smile: "The bride price is 1000 taels, and the dowry is 600 taels."

When Mrs. Lu heard this, she immediately became elated.

You know, the dowry and dowry are based on weight.At that time, as long as Lu Jian's parents are coaxed into offering 600 taels of betrothal gift, he can get the benefit of 1000 taels of silver!Got bigger.

But the family is so obsessed with wanting to marry their daughter, I'm afraid the problem is not so big.

But so what?It doesn't matter if she is lame, blind, or incapable of giving birth, as long as her nephew Lu Jian marries her, can she return the goods?Well, that's their own business.

So I discussed with the matchmaker carefully, and said euphemistically: "Let the woman's family pay the dowry to marry the daughter-in-law. It's not good to say it. Don't make a fuss. Just hand over the money to me later. I will find a chance in private, and then quietly give it to me." They, on the surface, are dowry gifts from the Lu family."

The matchmaker naturally understood her implication, and nodded with a smile, "Mrs. Lu is right."

Mrs. Lu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

I have already thought about it, should I post the 1000 taels of silver to my youngest son to get married, or to my daughter to get married?Or share some with them all, keep some for yourself, and make another set to wear.

Mrs. Lu asked again: "I don't know whose family the girl is from?"

The matchmaker's face turned into a flower with a smile, and once the matter was completed, she would get a bonus of 100 taels of silver.He raised his finger and pointed in the direction of Shao's mansion, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid Mrs. Lu will be surprised if I say it. It's not another family. It's the Shao family, the richest businessman in Jiangdu. It's Miss Shao who is going on a blind date."

Mrs. Lu was really taken aback, and was stunned for a while, "So it's the Shao family, no wonder Dao has so much money." No matter what is wrong with Shao Tongyun, she was relieved, 1000 taels of silver was just a drop in the bucket for the Shao family.

When Mrs. Lu met Lu Jian's parents, she didn't mention the other party's subsidy for the dowry. She only said that there was a girl like a fairy, rich in family, and a nice person. It is an excellent marriage to meet Lu Jian who is facing the wind in Yushu.

Lu Jian's parents were grateful to the cousin and his wife for their help, and they felt guilty all the time. They also heard her talk in a hype, and they didn't expect that there would be such a thing as "a virgin who lost her virginity", so they naturally believed it.

Lu's mother hesitated for a while, and said: "We didn't want to rush to get engaged to Jian'er, because we were afraid of delaying his studies, but since you are the matchmaker guaranteed by the lobby sister-in-law, we can't go wrong." If the girl is really very happy Well, it's okay to make an appointment first, and then get married after the autumn, and it won't affect your studies.

So he asked, "Which family is the girl from?"

Mrs. Lu smiled and said: "There is no one in Jiangdu who doesn't know their family, it is the Shao family in Jiangdu."

"Shao's family in Jiangdu?" Lu Jian's parents were extremely surprised, and Lu's mother wondered: "Their family is so rich, why would they want to marry our family? It's not a joke."

"Why are you joking?" Mrs. Lu had been asked by the matchmaker long ago, and she was ready to speak, "Although the Shao family has a lot of money, they still have the word 'business'. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and scholars are no less dignified than scholars. Their family has no shortage of money." For money, you need a young master who is famous and famous." He asked, "If not, why did Miss Shao decide Song Wenting?"

Mother Lu and Father Lu looked at each other and nodded.

Mrs. Lu said again: "Could it be that our Jian'er can't compare with Song Wenting? Jian'er is younger and more handsome than him, no wonder Miss Shao's third lady is willing." Afraid that they wouldn't be tempted, she added: "Jian'er and that Song Wenting are close friends. Being brother-in-law again, wouldn't it be closer and more harmonious? Speaking of it, it is also a good story."

Mother Lu wasn't too tempted at first, but after hearing this, the more she thought about it, the more she felt good.

Father Lu also nodded repeatedly, "So, it's indeed a good marriage."

Besides the Shao family, not only Shao Yuanheng was anxious, but the Shen family was also very anxious these days.As long as he thought that Shao Jingyu almost ruined his daughter's appearance with hot oil, he would be furious, and his eyes would stare with anxiety, wishing to marry both daughters right away!

So he asked his son to invite Song Wenting and Lu Jian to visit the house.

Then he asked Lu Jian if he could get engaged?Do you mean to get married?Expressed euphemistically, I still have a little daughter waiting in my boudoir, so I don't need to go into details.

Both Song Wenting and Lu Jian were stunned, and it took a while for them to come back to their senses.

After a long talk, Song Wenting left after saying goodbye. Song Wenting couldn't help but said happily: "That's great! If you can get engaged to Miss Shao Er, then we will be brother-in-law."

Lu Jian still couldn't come to his senses, she...can he marry her?In the past, when I thought about it, I always thought it was too high, but now that Song Wenting and Miss Shao were engaged, it seemed a little bit possible.

"Let's go!" Song Wenting laughed loudly: "Hurry up and tell your parents, let their family propose marriage."

Lu Jian hurried home.

As soon as I entered the door, I felt that the eyes of my parents were a little different.

"Jian'er." Mother Lu smiled and said, "Your aunt came over today and told you about a good marriage." After saying all Mrs. Lu's words, she said, "Before we were afraid that you would get married too early and delay it. Studies, but now that I think about it, it’s good to have someone who loves the heat by my side, so I might as well book it for you.”

Lu's father nodded and said, "Didn't you say that Song Wenting is engaged to Miss Shao's family? I will appoint Miss Shao for you, and then you two will be brother-in-law, and you will become relatives from friends."

Mother Lu couldn't help laughing, "It's really a fate."

Lu Jian nodded in embarrassment at first, and then was stunned. He seemed to hear "three" just now, and couldn't help asking in surprise, "Which Miss from the Shao family are you talking about?"

"Miss Shao San."

Lu Jian's heart suddenly "thumped", and he sank suddenly, "Ordered?!"

Lu's mother smiled and said, "Your eldest aunt wants to keep this good marriage, but she is so anxious that she has to give away your birth date."

Lu Jian's heart sank more and more, and when he asked his parents clearly and knew the whole story, he confirmed that it was Miss Shao San who he said he was kissing, not her whom he liked, so he hurried out the door.

Lu's father and Lu's mother were at a loss, not knowing why.

Lu Jian had never been so flustered in his entire life. He rushed to Shao's house and found Mrs. Shen, but after seeing the ceremony, he was stunned... What should I say?Before he said that he was not engaged, and then he said that his parents had engaged him, or Miss Shaosan. Isn't this humiliating her?
"What's the matter?" Shen asked with a smile, "Just say what you have to say."

"I..." Lu Jian has always been eloquent and eloquent in the circle of friends, but today he got stuck, "Just now, after thinking about it, I think... or..." It's not right to lie, and I'm engaged to Miss Shao San later. The news will definitely spread, wouldn't it be a deception?
Shen sized him up and thought about it, Lu Jianyu was not a very big person in his own family, and the more important matters could only be related to what he said in the morning.Because she was worried about her daughter's marriage, she didn't care too much, and asked, "Is there any change from what I told you before?"

Lu Jian lowered his clear eyes, unable to lie, "Yes."

"What do you mean?" Shen's face was displeased, and she asked suspiciously: "What's the matter, you don't want to?"

Lu Jian opened his mouth, but still didn't know what to say.

Seeing that he acquiesced, Shen's face changed drastically, and she said sharply: "Lu Jian! Is it a child's play for you to be engaged? If you don't want to, tell me earlier, my daughter doesn't have to marry you, how can I marry you first? Promise, and come back to regret it in a blink of an eye?" The more you think about it, the more angry you become, pointing to the door, "OK, OK, I already know what you mean, you go! Since you are Wen Ting's friend, I won't scold you , hurry up!"

"Wait!" A girl in green and white skirt rushed out.

In the morning, Mrs. Shen called a couple of daughters over, saying that Jean should wait in the room, and that there is something to do later.When Song Wenting and Lu Jian came over, Xian Hui knew that her mother was anxious to get engaged to her, and she was thinking about how to politely refuse her.He could not let his mother feel disgusted with Lu Jian, and he could not rush to settle the Lu family's marriage, but waited until his daughter came back from the draft, and then brought up the matter.

Unexpectedly, such a shocking conversation was stolen!
Turning her head to see her little daughter running out, Shen couldn't help being even more angry, "What are you doing out here? Go back quickly!"

Xianhui couldn't care about her mother's scolding, she was shocked and sad, "Lu Jian!" Her black and white eyes filled with lake water, looking at the elegant young man with flustered eyes, she asked unwillingly: " Why do you go back on your word? What is it that I am not good enough for you?!"
