206: Ready to marry (4 more)

After seeing it clearly, Liu wanted to stuff the deed paper back, Li said lightly:

"This is part of Rong Niang's dowry. If you think it's unlucky, just come back."

Mrs. Liu won’t accept it now, and it’s even worse to go back.

Li was a little depressed and quickly cheered up again.

"Don't think too much. Their sisters call me grandmother. I will definitely give me a bowl of water. When the two young people get married, I will also add makeup. Sister Hui is more difficult in marriage. She has lost her biological mother at a young age. You love her like your own child. The whole family sees it. You are a good person. Zhiyuan has not married the wrong person!"

Li was not unfair about Liu's cowardice. As the head wife, she was not bold enough and could not support her.

But even though Liu has many bad things, the advantage of being "kind" is enough to cover all the shortcomings.

If Cheng Zhiyuan really married a capable housekeeper, would he be so good to the eldest lady?

He would not raise an elder lady as his biological daughter, and even more so, when he saw that his stepdaughter could have a good marriage, he would immediately steal it for his biological daughter. Li saw too many of these things, so Liu's cowardice was a disadvantage, and kindness and broad-mindedness were great advantages.

Li praised this bluntly, especially the saying "I'm not married to the wrong person" that made Liu's eyes turn red.

In a flash, my husband passed away almost four years ago.

Today, the marriage of the eldest daughter was finalized and recognized by the elders of the clan. This family, which was originally swaying in the storm, not only did not disperse, but also got better and better as Cheng Qing promised!

After returning home, Liu showed Cheng Qing the deed paper given by Li.

Li said that this was Cheng Rong's dowry, and Cheng Qing didn't understand anything else.

Cheng Rong and the eldest lady are the same age, but Cheng Rong has not lived to marry. Li is a transference!

"Since it is my uncle's wish, my mother will accept it for my elder sister."

The clan is the clan, and the five bedrooms are the five bedrooms.

Whether Li added makeup or not, Cheng Qing never forgot about Cheng Rong's death.

Cheng Qing was really busy. Not only did he have to handle the marriage of his sister, but as Li said, since she passed the exam, there were too many people queuing up to deliver fields and houses to her, and she had to push her every day, and people came to her every day.

The Wang family villa where they live now, Wang Bushang came to the door three times in person and must give the house to Cheng Qing. As soon as Cheng Qing's family went down the mountain, Wang Bushang took advantage of the Double Ninth Festival to come again. Cheng Qing hid when he saw Wang Bushang.

The fifth master still couldn't stand it and told her the truth:

"The Wang family insists on giving away the gift, so you might as well accept it. You have lived in his house for three or four years, and it will be troublesome to move on. If you don't accept the Wang family, you have to accept other people's. It's better to choose a familiar student than to choose a student."

Cheng Qing was embarrassed, "Isn't this Wangbu merchant defeated?"

If you eat a big family, you have to eat a real big family. It is not easy for the Wang family. Cheng Qing is afraid that Wang Bushang will be a fat man, and he is also worried that the Wang family will give her the house tightly even if they tighten their belts, just to make difficult requirements after she enters the government.

The fifth master broke the words and said, "The lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Wang family did a mess and offended noble people. If they didn't take advantage of the industry on the surface, they would not be able to save the rest. They would not dare to make things difficult for you, but they just pretended to be poor and life was difficult. Everyone wanted to step on the Wang family, and they would have to borrow the light of the new science and Jieyuan."

The Wang Bu merchant is actually pretending to be poor!

They can really tolerate it.

It's really hard to pretend to be poor when you're used to being extravagant.

Wang Bushang is indeed an old fox. He has scattered all the money on his face to ensure safety. He even rented out the houses in other courtyards for others, and he has to calculate the small amount of money. Naturally, others think that the Wang family is really poor.

Cheng Qing was even more afraid to underestimate these ancient businessmen.

They just don’t understand the knowledge of her era, but how could they be worse than the business people she dealt with in her previous life?

If this feudal society had not set the social status of merchants as the last, those who do business might not have been able to beat the officials.

However, the social system is formulated by those in power. From this perspective, the officials are more sophisticated!

Under the guidance of the fifth master, Cheng Qing knew that she had a long way to go. When she was not strong enough, she would not be a person who challenged the rules. She would also be with Guangchen when other juren enjoyed any treatment.

Not only did she take over the Wang family's house, she also took over the land deeds sent by two gentry landlords, and also took over two shops in the county, and then stopped.

Those who failed to get through the gifts were very regretful. They did not blame Cheng Qing for not giving face, but only blamed him for not being sincere enough, and told others to seize the opportunity and not have anything to do with Duke Jie Yuan!

Cheng Qing had just taken out his purse to marry her, and someone immediately filled her purse. Otherwise, China has always praised "all things are inferior but only high in studying", which is really right.

However, in this way, Cheng Qing's family finally had their own house in Nanyi County. As the fifth master said, their family had lived in Yangliu Lane for three or four years. Now that Wang's house has become Cheng's house, the eldest lady can get married from her family!

Regardless of ancient and modern times, with your own house, the family's heart will be more stable.

Cheng Qing was busy with all kinds of trivial matters, and Cheng Hui just waited for her to marry. Both sisters helped her embroider the wedding dress so that Cheng Hui could free up her hands to prepare gifts for the elders of her future husband's family. Gifts were usually embroidered by the bride himself, such as plastering foreheads, shoes and clothes, which showed the bride's children's skills.

The Dong family has a large population, so others can send it at will. Dong Jinqiu’s parents, grandfather and grandmother’s things cannot be fooled.

In addition, Dong Jinqiu's younger siblings are also there.

When he went down the mountain to go home on the Double Ninth Festival, Cheng Hui was still in a daze and felt that it was not real. Later, he was no longer in a daze. Dong Jinqiu had to get married before going to Beijing to take the exam. She didn't have much time to embroider things. She wanted to grow eight hands and thread them together.

Cheng Qing thought so sourly that he rushed to the needle hole of the eldest lady's finger. If someone named Dong dared to treat the eldest lady, she had to take the needle... No, the needle is too thin, so it's better to change the awl.

She had to use an awl to tie Dong Jinqiu into Dong's leaking wind!

...

The Cheng family is actively preparing for marriage, and the Dong family is also busy getting married.

Dong Jinqiu couldn't control his mouth and couldn't help but talk to Cheng Hui first.

Then he could not move his feet and did not walk forward in time to pull out the golden hairpin on Cheng Hui's head. The insertion of the hairpin means that he had a crush on Cheng Hui. Dong Jinqiu was very distressed on the way back to Xuandu that day on the Double Ninth Festival, "Why didn't your mother discuss with me?"

Mrs. Dong was too lazy to pay attention to him.

"You accompany Mrs. Cheng up the mountain all the way, and you wish you could tell the origin of every tree and every tree on the mountain in front of Mrs. Cheng. If you are so unrestrained, how could you tell lies with your eyes open and give the colorful satin to Mrs. Cheng!"

Mrs. Dong said that this matter was not because she was not cautious, but because Dong Jinqiu was not reserved enough.

Dong Jinqiu couldn't refute a word.

There are few times when Mrs. Dong and her son have the upper hand so much, so they can't help but pursue: "If you regret it now, you can go to Cheng's house to get the golden hairpin and give Mrs. Cheng two pieces of colorful satin to apologize. But if you go back on your word like this, don't let me accompany you. Alas, Mrs. Cheng is so pitiful..."

Mrs. Dong took out a handkerchief and pretended to wipe her tears. Dong Jinqiu looked at her mother without even a single tear, and she felt very tired.

He is going to retrieve the golden hairpin now?
