pastoral wedding

Chapter 127 Rose's Ambition

The marriage of the second girl of the Su family was scheduled for the end of October. It was a season when the cold was still warm. Originally, the Chu family was in a hurry to get married. One month later.But let’s not talk about the whole Suzaku City, at least Zhucheng District knows about this matter. Apart from how much the Chu family’s betrothal gift is worth, people like to talk about how much the Su family can give their daughter as a dowry.

There is only one month left before the marriage, so the Su family is naturally busy preparing a dowry for the second girl. The example of Su Tang is there, and Su Wenshan and his wife have always loved their children very much. Naturally, this dowry is indispensable of.The Su family has been in Suzaku City for some time, and because they own a restaurant, they also know a lot of people.I asked people I knew about a manor, which was not in Zhucheng District, but in Meicheng District. Zhuangzi was as big as the one that Su Tang married as a dowry. It took 4000 mu in two days, but it cost [-] taels of silver. It was in Qingshi Town. double.

The tofu shop has been managed by Su Shuang all the time, so Su Jin proposed to give her another [-]% of the profit, and the Su family only took [-]%. When Su Shuang gets married, Qiao Sanshi will take care of it. Communicate directly with Su Shuang about anything.Mrs. Liu recalled that when Su Tang got married, she bought a shop for Su Tang, so she also bought a shop for Su Shuang, which sold cloth, and Su Shuang was very happy.Su Jin remembered that she said that when the second sister got married, she would use nanmu to make furniture for her. Since she could use it now, she would find someone to cut down two trees. This matter was left to Han Yu, because she didn't want to make too much of it. Many people know the existence of Phoebe.

But in four or five days, the two nanmu trees were brought in. Su Wenshan found a familiar craftsman to make furniture, and Su Jin drew a picture for it. This should be regarded as a surprise for the second sister.

In fact, the furniture made from two nanmu trees is limited, but Su Jin didn't want to make too much. It would be boring to make such precious nanmu furniture like wholesale.I only make a few pieces, but all of them must be high-quality goods. Except for the dowry for the second sister, the remaining few pieces are for the eldest sister. They were not given to the eldest sister when they got married, but now they have to make up.

As the eldest sister, Su Tang naturally couldn't take nothing, except for a box of jewelry that she had prepared long ago, and 3000 taels of silver.Su Shuang refused to take it, "Elder Sister, this can't be her own money, right? Why did you give me so much?"

Su Tang smiled and stuffed the silver ticket into her hand, "Your brother-in-law also agreed. When we came to Zhuque City, the old man gave us three shops, plus the one where my parents married me. The shop, as well as the manor, can drop a lot every year, and we can still get the 3000 taels, so you can keep it at ease."

After hearing this, Su Shuang no longer refused.Seeing their sisters like this, Mrs. Liu was relieved, "Although you are all married, you still have to be the same as when you were at home. Don't let your eyes only see that your husband's family has lost your mother's family. In the future, no matter whether it is your younger siblings, Or you two, no matter who has difficulties, you should help as much as possible, I told you these truths when you were very young, and you must never forget this."

Naturally, the sisters remembered these words, and nodded when they heard their mother's instructions.

After leaving her mother's house, Su Tang took the one-year-old Nuan Xin to buy pastries. The red bean cakes in this pastry shop are a must, and they are the best in Zhuque City.Han Chen likes to eat this, so Su Tang thought that since it came out, he would buy it back for him. He must be very happy to see it.

I walked around from Zhucheng District to Lancheng District to buy pastries, and then went back to the government office in Zhucheng District. It was almost evening when I returned home after a long detour.Su Tang hurriedly hugged Nuan Xin and quickened her pace, thinking that Han Chen should already be waiting.Not only Han Chen's family lived in the official yamen, but also other officials' family members, each with an independent courtyard.The men are all officials together, and no matter whether these family members are close to each other or not very close to each other, they always smile and nod when they meet each other.

Because he ran into a familiar wife when returning to his own yard, Su Tang stood still and said a few more words, but when he entered the yard, he saw Dong Zhi standing by the door waiting.Xia Mo quickly took a step forward to meet him, "Did something happen at home? Why did you come out?"

Dong Zhi glanced at his wife, then looked sideways at the yard, hesitating whether to say something or not.

"What's the matter?" Su Tang opened his mouth, and handed Nuan Xin to the maid behind him to hold him, "Winter Solstice, did something happen at home?"

Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Winter Solstice said bravely, "Yes, it's the young master, he, he's in the study."

"What's wrong in the study? Is it worth your fuss?" Mo Xia was short-tempered, and nudged her resentfully, "What's the matter, are you trying to kill us?"

"Qiangwei is inside." After saying this, Dongzhi quickly lowered her head, "I originally arranged for her to do sewing in the house, so I went to the kitchen to arrange today's dinner, the young master should have come back at this time, Qiangwei I probably saw it, so I went into the study, and Yingchun came to tell me that I was in a hurry to go to the study to drive her out, who would have heard the laughter of the young master and Qiangwei as soon as I walked under the window, I, I I didn't dare to go in." After speaking, he bent his knees and knelt down to Su Tang, "Ma'am, it's my fault, it's because I didn't take Qiangwei well, I..."

"Get up, it's not your fault." Su Tang's expression changed, but he still held back.Nuan Xin was already sensible, and when she saw that her expression was wrong, she was so frightened that she cried, and she stopped following the maid who was holding her, and struggled hard into her mother's arms.Su Tang took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, forced a smile to take the child over and hugged him, "Nuanxin, don't cry, don't be afraid, didn't we buy some snacks outside, mother Come out for you to eat, let's go, let's go home."

Nuan Xin was still sobbing, and was still crying when she passed the study room. As soon as the mother and daughter entered the room, Han Chen followed behind.As soon as he entered the door, he stepped forward to hug Nuan Xin, "What's wrong with Nuan Xin? Why are you crying so hard? Who bullied you, tell daddy, daddy will beat him for you."

The child didn't know what to say, so he only said vaguely: "Daddy bullied mother." After hearing this, Han Chen raised his head to look at Su Tang, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Did you get angry outside?"

Su Tang shook his head, "It's okay, give me your warm heart, wash your hands, it's time to eat." As he spoke, he stopped Xia Mo who was about to speak with his eyes, "Quickly go to the kitchen and have a look, if the meal is ready, serve it. "

At the end of summer, he was full of anger, and the winter solstice took over the warm heart. The little maids brought tea, and Han Chen sat down to drink tea.Su Tang stood aside, hesitant to speak, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it was fine, any man who didn't have three wives and four concubines, even if he wanted to accept Qiangwei, he couldn't say anything.

Su Tang wanted to let this matter pass like this, and made plans to raise Qiangwei as an aunt, but this incident broke out at night.Xia Mo was outraged, ignored Dong Zhi's dissuasion, forced Qiangwei to reason, and punished her to kneel outside and not allow her to sleep.Qiangwei cried and refused, Xia Mo pricked her with the sewing awl, and the two started to quarrel.

At this time, Han Chen had just finished eating and was reading in the study. When he heard the movement, he went out to look. When Qiangwei saw him coming out, she immediately crawled over and grabbed the corner of his clothes, "Young Master, save me, sister Xia Mo is going to kill me."

"What's going on here?" Han Chen frowned, "It's not like being at home now, but now living in the government office. Isn't such a big movement being seen as a joke?"

Qiangwei was kicked twice by Xia Mo pulling her hair, her clothes were messy, and with tears all over her face, she looked very cute and pitiful.She clung to Han Chen and did not let go, only shouting: "Young master, help me, sister Xia Mo is going to kill me."

Han Chen looked up at Xia Mo, his eyes were stern, Xia Mo was a little uncomfortable, but he still insisted on not speaking, standing there blankly, looking at Qiangwei with disdain, "You bitch, what else can you do besides seduce a man? "

"At the end of Xia! Do you want to embarrass me?" Han Chen stopped her, "Hurry up and pull her down, and don't quarrel at will in the future! If you quarrel again, go down and get ten boards!"

"Eldest young master, did I make you lose face? Obviously you were the one who lost face. What are you doing in the study room with Qiangwei, a lowly girl, in broad daylight? Our girl treats you sincerely, and went so far Lu went to buy red bean cakes for you, is this how you treat our girl? You are sorry for our girl!"

Han Chen's expression changed, and he scolded, "How long are you going to make trouble?"

"As soon as the eldest young master sells this cheap girl, I will make trouble!" Mo Xia said stubbornly.

"You!" Han Chen raised his hand to hit him, but someone grabbed his wrist. He turned his head and saw Su Tang standing in front of him with disheveled hair and a cold face, "If you want to hit her, hit me first, she is my dowry maid." , All these words are for me, if you are angry, hit me."

Seeing that she also came to join in, Han Chen was so angry that he couldn't choose what to say, "You... are you trying to piss me off?"

"Eldest young master can't do this. It's not that we want to be angry with you, but you and Qiangwei are angry with our girl. Where did our girl suffer such grievances when she was in her mother's house? Otherwise, I'll ask our old man and wife to judge Dong Zhi also stood up, "Eldest young master, although the rose was given by my wife, even if you keep it in your room, our girl can't say anything, but don't forget what you said when you married our girl, You said that only one of her is enough in this life, but now it is like this, don’t you say that a man is a man, and a word is hard to follow? I am just a maid, unlike the young master, you are a scholar and sensible, but I don’t have any of these Even a maid who has read the book can understand things, why can't the young master not understand? If you want to have a peaceful home, you can only have one wife, even if it is an extra housekeeper. Our girls don't fight with others, it doesn't mean People will also let our girl go, people are greedy, you should understand this better than me."
