Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 191 The Dowry
In addition, there was an endless stream of business from the opposite door before, and all the people who should buy had almost bought it. The shop of Xie's shop was now overwhelmed by a large number of goods, and there were basically no sales. Master Xie was furious because of this, and severely reprimanded several shopkeepers. .

The butler has never talked to a maid so pleasingly, with a good voice, who knows that others don't appreciate it at all, and can't help getting annoyed: "How can you, a girl, decide about the girl's affairs? Get out of the way, Ask the girl to come out, I have the master's order, and I must personally tell the girl about this matter."

"The girl didn't see any outsiders, so she just asked me to pass on the message. Didn't the housekeeper hear it just now?" Xue Ling didn't bother to talk to him any more, and turned around and left without saying a word: "Since the housekeeper has finished what he wants to say, I also It's time to go in, the girl can't lack someone to serve her."

The butler wanted to step forward to stop her, but he was blocked by two tall bodyguards in front of Zhuangzi, with swords hanging on their waists, who were a full head taller than him.

Just by the aura of the whole body, it is different from the soft-footed shrimps of those high-school children in Beijing who can make a few tricks and embroider their legs. The evil spirit all over their bodies is probably someone who has killed someone on the battlefield.

The butler took two steps back with a pale face, he didn't dare to offend the regent.Which of the soldiers under the Prince Regent had never had blood on their hands, not just one or two, but dozens or hundreds!

He stared fiercely at Xue Ling's back, this self-made maid didn't know how to report to the third girl when she went back.If you speak ill of master Xie in front of the girl, you will have to be reprimanded by the master when you go back.

Under the watchful eyes of the guards, the butler got into the carriage disheveledly and almost fled in despair.

But he was waiting for Xie Yanniang's joke, did the third girl still want the regent to buy her a dowry?

What a joke, I haven't heard of any girl getting married, it's the dowry given by the future husband!If you spread the word, don't you laugh at other people's big teeth?
Xie Yanniang was not surprised when she heard Xue Ling's detailed report.

Mr. Xie is now afraid that his intestines are green with regret. He used to think that she failed to climb up to the fifteenth prince, and that she might blow the pillow wind with the regent and ruin his business. With Xie Ruitong's instigation, he threw She was removed from the family.

Now Xie's family is not doing well, Xie Ruitong has become the prince's side concubine, but he couldn't help much, so he sent his idea to her.

It just so happened that Xie Yanniang was going to get married, and the dowry was a huge burden.If the Xie Mansion helped at this time, it was like sending charcoal in a timely manner, how could she not be grateful?

After becoming the main wife of the Prince Regent, Xie Mansion begged, and she had no choice but to save her because of this kindness.

Xie Yanniang sneered, obviously Master Xie never raised her, and Liu Zifu worked so hard to bring her up for more than ten years.

She grew up and became an excellent bargaining chip, so Mr. Xie wanted to take her back.

The dowry was originally supposed to be prepared by the Xie family, but now it's really disgusting to put on a face that wants to give her favors from above!

Xue Ling was also worried, and said in a low voice: "Although the housekeeper said nothing good, there is some truth in it. The dowry of a girl cannot be arranged by adults, and it is not good for girls to spread it. Even if there are no relatives in the family, I am afraid that the soldiers below will also treat the mistress of the girl poorly."

Xie Yanniang knew that she was worried, so she smiled and comforted Xue Ling and said, "Don't worry, I will arrange the dowry myself, I don't have to worry about it."

Xue Ling was dumbfounded when she heard that, if the regent was to arrange it, it would be enough to shock the world.Now that her own girl actually said that she was going to buy the dowry herself, I'm afraid she was the No.

"Miss, buying a dowry is not just a matter of money." She hesitated, worried that Xie Yanniang would not understand the importance of dowry.

Which family's dowry has not been saved since childhood, most of which are rare treasures, and there are also odds and ends, and it is worth dozens of lifts.

But Xie Yanniang married the Prince Regent, so the dowry cost more than 100 to say the least.

In just one month, where can I find so much dowry?

Even if Xie Yanniang had silver taels in hand, it would take time to buy them in batches.

Especially Xue Ling was in charge of the accounts, knowing that it was impossible for her to have a large sum of money to buy more than 100 dowry, so she couldn't help being anxious.

Xie Yanniang didn't say much to her, she just said: "Let Shi Da wait outside the door, I have something to tell him."

Xueyan went to call for someone, and Xueling quickly set up a screen in the house.

Xie Yanniang used to be careless in the Xie Mansion, but now that she is about to become the main wife of the Prince Regent, she can't just meet a foreigner casually, the general rule of thumb is to behave.

Shi Da came soon, and stood silently at the door, looking at Xie Yanniang through the screen, waiting intently for his order.

"Shi Da, I have an important matter that needs you to do it yourself."

Xie Yanniang didn't beat around the bush, she signaled Xue Ling to wait outside, and said, "Do you have any trusted brothers or clan members? You are in charge of this matter, I need manpower."

Shi Da nodded, and a hoarse voice sounded: "Miss, don't worry, my clansmen and brothers all live in a big courtyard. Although each of them is poor, they are by no means treacherous and evil. .If the girl is worried, I can make them swear to God."

Xie Yanniang is helpless, Shi Da is always as stubborn as a rock sometimes.She didn't say she didn't believe it, so Shi Da directly asked the clansmen to swear poisonous oath.Those who didn't know it thought she was an evil master who made people swear at every turn.

"No, I trust you, and I trust your people even more." Xie Yanniang quickly wrote a piece of letter paper and stuffed it through behind the screen: "You go to this place, there is a simple map, but the specific place requires Shi Da I’m here to look for it. When you find something, send it back in a carriage. Remember, don’t let anyone see it.”

Shi Da carefully read the two pieces of letter paper, they were quickly broken into pieces, and they were thrown into the teacup in his hand.

Xie Yanniang smiled in satisfaction, he really was a caring person, understood that she didn't want people to know, so he simply destroyed the letter: "Then, I'll just wait for your good news."

"You must fulfill the girl's orders," Shi Da clasped his fists in salute, and quickly retreated out.

Xue Ling came in to clean up the teacup he had used, saw that it was soaked into a ball, and the shredded paper with handwriting could not be seen for a long time, so she asked Xue Yan to send it to the kitchen without asking, and secretly threw it into the stove.

Since the girl doesn't want others to know, it's more reassuring to deal with it.

The steward of Xie's mansion came to the door and shouted, which soon reached Ruan Jingxin's ears.

While eating, Ruan Jingxin said softly: "You don't have to worry about the dowry. As for the place where you get married, you can go out to the Marquis' residence of Marquis Zhongyi. You don't need to spend much time with them, just live in a few days before the wedding Just fine."

"Honor Zhongyi?" Xie Yanniang was surprised, after all Ruan Jingxin never mentioned his family, everyone said he was an orphan, even she thought so.

Now suddenly there is a loyal prince, it sounds like he is related to him, which is really surprising.

"Mrs. Zhongyi Hou is my aunt, but we haven't seen each other for many years." If possible, Ruan Jingxin would never want to deal with anyone related to the family.

Xie Yanniang also heard it, he didn't want to trouble this aunt, but unfortunately she was going to get married, so she couldn't leave the hot spring village, and it would make him feel a little embarrassed.

This thoughtfulness warmed her heart, but she didn't want to see Ruan Jingxin unhappy because of this: "The reputation of a civilian girl being expelled from the family is already bad enough, and it's not bad."

Xie Yanniang looked at Ruan Jingxin, and sighed again: "Your Excellency has concealed it for so many years. If someone with a heart knows about the relationship with Mrs. Zhongyihou, the emperor will inevitably fear him a little bit."

Although Zhongyi Hou is just a famous and powerless Marquis, he is also very talented and famous. The two have become involved. The royalists are afraid to keep an eye on Ruan Jingxin, and they will inevitably cause trouble for him, just to protect the so-called reputation, why bother?
"If this is the case, the girl will be wronged." Ruan Jingxin felt relieved when she saw her insistence.

Anyway, he didn't care about such a nihilistic thing as reputation, even if Xie Yanniang married from Hot Spring Zhuangzi, in his opinion, there was nothing wrong with it.

"It's such a small matter, how can I be wronged." Xie Yanniang shook her head, she is much better now than she was when she left the country in her previous life.

At the beginning, not only did she have Long Zhiyu's special care, but she allowed herself to bring a dowry and marry to the palace in a grand manner.

It's a pity that he was imprisoned in the yard all day, and those dowries were useless.

She has a reputation, but what kind of life she is living, she knows in her heart.

Those who didn't know said that Xie Yanniang was a high ranking person, and was doted on by the prince so much that she was going crazy with jealousy.

However, she lived a life that would be worse than death, and she lived with her fingers every day. How has she ever been so comfortable as she is now?
Xie Yanniang understands better that Ruan Jingxin brought her the comfort she has now.

Compared with the man in front of him, Long Zhiyu is like the mud in the mud, comparing them together, it insults Ruan Jingxin.

Xie Yanniang lowered her head and said again: "Minister has something to tell your lord."

"Is it to let Shi Da go out to do something?" Ruan Jingxin looked at her, Zhuangzi is not old, so it is not difficult to know that Xie Yanniang's actions.

Xie Yanniang nodded: "Minnv wants to exchange the things Shi Da brought back with the adults for a dowry."

Hearing this, Ruan Jingxin laughed: "You don't have to be like this, even if you don't have those things, the Qi Zhuang that you asked me to buy is enough to buy countless dowry for you."

The value of the gold mine, the dowry is probably not even a fraction of it.

Xie Yanniang raised her head and glanced at him quickly: "We can't reveal a little bit about Qizhuang's affairs, and we can't reveal too much to attract people's attention. What the daughter asked Shi Da to send back, I can let the adults do it." A great deal."

"Business?" Ruan Jingxin shook his head with a smile, and replied, "I'm not a businessman. Last time I just gave the Xie family an upset, but I never thought of competing with the businessman."
