My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 16 "Chapter Rites"



Chapter 16 "The Return Gift"

After the wedding, it was "three dynasties returning to the door", and then the wedding shed was demolished, and the wedding banquet officially ended.

Then the Dragon Boat Festival passed, and Shu Shu's days returned to the leisurely days of the past.

Mrs. Uncle is a real aunt, and she is not mean-spirited. Guizhen is also thoughtful and mellow in her affairs, and there is nothing to be picky about. She follows her mother-in-law to learn how to be a housekeeper for half a day, and spends half a day with her husband. My sister-in-law studied health-preserving medicinal diet, and naturally integrated into Dong E's family.

But Shu Shu has one thing in mind, that is to teach Guo Luo Luo Gege a lesson, she must not let her come over for nothing, otherwise she will not be bullied for nothing.

This little note was added to Shu Shu's notebook, describing Guo Luoluogege's rudeness.

On the ninth day of May, Fusong brought a message from Brother Nine that the rest of the money had been collected, and the transfer could be done tomorrow afternoon.

In the early summer, the capital city was dryly hot. Shu Shu changed from a cloak to a vest when going out, and put it on a Luosha gown, which made her feel much cooler.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Shu Shu took Xiao Chun into the carriage, and Fu Song took a few regular followers on horseback to follow.

However, the sister and brother did not go directly to the Yamen of the household department, but went to the teahouse not far from the household department.

This is the place designated by Brother Jiu, and it was agreed that the delivery will not be made here today.

Shu Shu had a pocket watch on her body, estimated the time at home, and arrived a quarter of an hour earlier.

When Shu Shu and Fu Song entered the teahouse, a familiar young eunuch in blue clothes came down from the second floor. It's already..." As he said, he bowed and led the two of them up to the second floor.

In the largest private room on the second floor, brother Jiu has already arrived.

Seeing Shu Shu's sister and brother coming in, Brother Nine looked at Shu Shu's undisguised pink face, immediately looked away, and said a little uncomfortable: "I heard that the business of 'Qianjinfang' is making a lot of money every day... ...What's the matter, you can't bear to change even a new plaque? It's only two taels of silver, and you don't even say hello, just use the signboard of the master?"

Brother Nine was looking forward to meeting today, but knowing that Qianjinfang's birthday is prosperous, he also felt depressed.

Even the starling heard about it, and asked himself a question in private.

Shu Shu took Fu Song to his seat generously, pushed a plate of fruit for him to eat, and then explained: "If it's someone else's signboard, there's no reason to use it... Isn't it Jiuye's signboard that's why I want to use it?"

Anyway, the marriage won't be a thing of the past, it will be a family at that time, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine. Thinking of this, Shu Shu couldn't help but smile.

It's also a good way for the hostess to hold the power of the property.

Brother Jiu rolled his eyes, showing a bit of dissatisfaction: "You're really thick-skinned, taking advantage of everything..."

Shu Shu was confident and confident, and said without any guilt: "Do you want to change the signboard with great fanfare, so that people can inquire about the reason for the change of owner? Then bring up the previous lawsuit to make people chew their tongues?"

Get cheap and sell well.

Brother Jiu's face became even darker, and he pushed the purse in his hand: "This is the remaining banknote, the land deed, the house deed, take it out and let He Yuzhu transfer the ownership..."

Shu Shu didn't count the banknotes, nor was she in a hurry to take out the deed, but poured herself half a cup of tea, drank it leisurely, and then changed her serious appearance: "Let me say something... Jiuye is in a hurry Huan would rather increase the price to buy these properties, but to add makeup to Guo Luoluogege?"

This is not Shu Shu's random guess, but Gui Dan's tongue-in-cheek, which has been revealed before.

Brother Jiu also thought of Gui Dan, and couldn't help frowning, but nodded without denying it.

Shu Shu frowned, with disapproval on her face: "In the name of Master Jiu himself? Is this... easy to offend people? Don't do bad things with good intentions..."

Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu and became more and more dissatisfied: "You really think you are a fool? Of course it's in the name of myna!"

Even though he is a few months younger than himself, he always pretends to be a senior, talking and reasoning, what's wrong?
Is this the habit of being the eldest sister at home?
Brother Jiu wanted to find fault with Shu Shu, but he couldn't help but find reasons for her.

Perhaps this is the reason?

Isn't that how the big brother stays with the little brother below, habitually preaching.

Fifth Brother is okay in front of others, but he is easy to nag when he is in front of him.

Shu Shu said very generously: "Then this transaction can't be at this price! How can I make money from the eighth master? I'd better transfer the original price and forget it!"

Brother Nine doesn't know whether to be happy or angry, where is the difference between near and far?

Is this to "kill familiarity"? !

This Dong E family really makes people have no choice but to hate her.

But he didn't care about lying for the money, and said impatiently, "It's not Myna's money, it's my money... Basister-in-law's parents left early, and they are not close to Guo Luoluo's family, and the dowry is all there." Relying on the prince's mansion, but after all, Taifu Jin is the head of the family, if it is shabby, it will hurt the dignity of mynah..."

Sure enough, there are no secrets in Beijing, smart people will think of Guo Luoluogege's embarrassing situation.

Shu Shu sincerely praised: "Jiu Ye is generous and generous, really brotherly love!"

Brother Nine didn't refute, but nodded in agreement: "Myna treats people well, in my place, myna treats everyone the same as Fifth Brother..."

"Oh, it turns out that there is a precedent for Master Wu, so Master Jiu should make up for it this time."

Shu Shu kindly suggested: "I heard that Jiuye and Shiye also have a deep relationship, I think it will not be much worse than that with Baye, shouldn't we also prepare in advance to save time..."

Elder Brother Ten's will for the marriage has also come down, that is, Mongolia Gege, which was decided a few years ago, the initial ceremony will be at the end of the year, and the wedding will be at the beginning of next year.

Brother Nine was confused by what he said: "What precedent? Fifth sister-in-law's natal family is good, so she needs to make up for it... The same is true for old ten's side. Since Khan Ama chooses a noble daughter from Mongolia to marry her, the dowry can only be richer. Not thin..."

Shu Shu said bluntly: "Although Wu Fujin is the daughter of Jiu Xun, she is only an offshoot of the Tarra clan, and her father's grandfather's official position is also low. The dowry is naturally not as rich as other princes Fujin, so why don't you need to add it? Guo Luoluogege The family is a direct branch of the family, and has been married to the royal family for several lifetimes, and the dowry of several generations of princesses and princesses is in the treasury. If it is difficult to collect the dowry, wouldn't it be even more difficult for Wufu Jin..."

Brother Jiu didn't speak, but fell into deep thought.

Is the fifth sister-in-law's dowry really thin?

It seems that it is not rich.

Last year, the fifth brother and the seventh brother got married on the same day, and the dowry of the two princes, Fujin, entered the palace on the same day. Naturally, there must be comparisons.

Qifu Jin is the daughter of Faka, the deputy capital of the Zhenghong Banner. An offshoot of the Hadanara family among the "Eight Great Families", she is also married to the clan for generations. Many of her family members hold high positions in the army, and her family wealth is naturally not Wufu Jin's family. comparable.

At that time, some people seemed to laugh at Wu Fujin, saying that among the princes, Fujin, he had the lowest background and the poorest dowry.

I didn't take it seriously at the time, after all, the fifth brother was not short of money, the fifth brother was raised by the queen mother, and got a lot of private houses from the queen mother, so the money I took out today was borrowed from the fifth brother.

The reason why it was delayed from the end of March to the present is because the fifth brother had an errand to go to Gyeonggi last month and was not in Beijing.

It seems that it is not appropriate to help myna add makeup by himself.

Fifth Brother is kind, so I won’t misunderstand, but there are still Empress and Fifth Sister-in-law...

If you pick a reason, I really don't take it for granted.

Brother Nine frowned, and got into a tangle, but he had spoken to Ma Hun in private before...

Seeing Brother Jiu's reaction, Shu Shu "suddenly realized": "Did Master Jiu neglect last year? That's okay, just go back and make up for it... Isn't this exactly three properties, one elder brother just needs one... "

Ninth elder brother frowned slightly, then shook his head: "There are always priorities, the eldest brother's wedding will be next year, so there is no rush... Fifth brother, I will make up for it later, when I am free, I will make it up..."

Shu Shu withdrew her smile and took a bit of seriousness: "What about me?"

Brother Jiu couldn't help wondering: "Huh? What's wrong with you?"

With a serious face, Shu Shu said solemnly: "My natal family is also normal. Mafa was only a bodyguard when she was alive, and Ama was not a successor. She was promoted to Dutong in the first few years... Enie's natal family has no family status, and even the idle family Nothing compares...my family is no better than Fifth Sister-in-law's family..."

Brother Jiu listened carefully at first, but then he felt that something was wrong, and immediately retorted: "I'm a fool again? Who are you lying to?! Your family still lacks a dowry?! Don't you have ten hectares of land and four shops?! There are also two silver buildings that are making money every day, how dare you cry poor with the Lord?"

Shu Shu sighed, with a bit of helplessness: "The emperor's kindness is mighty, and he pointed me to Jiuye Fujin. I, Ama and E Nie, have always been loyal. What else can I do except marry a daughter? But I am a woman, and I am an elder sister How can you be ashamed to see the ancestral property go into the dowry and let the family drink the northwest wind?"

Brother Jiu was so blocked that he couldn't speak, and he muttered for a long time: "Then you don't need to ask me to make up for it. Isn't this dowry collected by the woman's family? ... If you want to make up for it, what is it? That's not self-deception. ? Spreading it out is also a joke..."

Shu Shu didn't refute, but just quietly looked at Brother Jiu, the "double-standard dog".

Brother Jiu realized it later, and realized it, blushing and annoyed: "What do you mean? You must stop me from helping myna, right?!"

Shu Shu stretched out her hand, took the purse on the table, opened it, and counted it carefully. There were nine banknotes, five with a face value of 1000 taels, four with a face value of one hundred taels, and some scattered ones.

Shu Shu collected the Zhuang ticket, put it in her purse, and returned the empty purse to Brother Jiu.

Brother Jiu's expression softened a bit: "After rambling for a long time, I still took out the deed and asked He Yuzhu to go to transfer the ownership earlier, don't delay..."

Shu Shu didn't intend to take out the contract, but instead asked: "Does Jiu Ye want to help Ba Ye gain face, or does he want to help Guo Luo Luo Gege gain face?"

Brother Nine snorted: "Nonsense! Naturally, I want to help Mynah! If it wasn't for marrying Mynah, do you know who Guo Luoluo is?"

Shu Shu drew out three banknotes of 1000 taels, and pushed them in front of Brother Jiu: "Since I'm helping Ba Ye, it's natural to take care of Ba Ye's dignity... I heard that money is indispensable in the palace if you want to live freely, Ba Ge used to be simpler It's nothing, I can't lose face in front of the bride and spend the bride's dowry money... Wouldn't it be more realistic for Master Jiu to use this as a wedding gift..."

Brother Nine looked at the three silver bills, a total of 3000 taels, which is quite a lot. Even if myna seals Baylor, the annual salary is only 500 taels.

What Dong Eshi said seems to be right. Adding makeup to Guo Luoluo in private in the name of starling will only add to the icing on the cake for Guo Luoluo. On the contrary, starling really doesn't have a lot of money here.

But isn't this the master's money?
Wherever it is, it is her turn to distribute!
