Ninefold Purple

Xie Wan and Miao Anping were astonished. *Literary Museum*

Miao Anping even lost his voice: "Then, what should we do?"

The guard sighed: "The king wants the minister to die, but the minister must die. The father wants the son to die, and the son must die. No matter how powerful our elder son is outside, in front of the Duke of the country, we must abide by our children's duties. At most, that's it. Lose your temper, what else can you do?"

Miao Anping burst into ecstasy, and then Xie Wan went home.

Xie Wan was a little hesitant. [

The reason why he is willing to marry the Miao family is that he hopes to use this matter to talk to Song Mo, who is the son-in-law of the Dou family in Beilou. What does the second master of the British government have to do with him?Now Xiaoding has not started yet, but Song Mo ran away in anger. Does he still need to go to Miao's house?

But Wanping County is only this big, and Miao Anping was in a hurry. The bearer thought that Miao's family had now climbed into the British government's mansion, so he didn't dare to neglect him. When Xie Wan came back to his senses, the sedan chair had already stopped at Miao's mansion. the gate.

He had to get off the sedan chair.

Miao Suan's uncle, father, and uncle came out to greet her in a swarm.

Xie Wan entered the gate proudly.

Miao Anping pulled his father behind the pomegranate tree.

"Father, let me tell you, I met the eldest son of the British government just now." He hurriedly told Father Miao what happened, "It can be seen that Song Yantang is a coward, and he is not here today, you said , about the dowry, can we discuss the number again?"

Father Miao's heart was beating wildly. It was his son's suggestion that was very feasible.

He immediately consulted with Miao Ansu's uncle.

Miao Ansu's uncle thought for a long time, and said: "A horse's night grass is not fat, and a person's windfall is not rich. Try it first, and then talk about it if it doesn't work."

Father Miao and Miao Pingan kept nodding.

The three went to the hall.

After drinking a cup of tea with Xie Wan, the person appointed by the British government arrived.

The Song family's matchmakers were Qiao Lu, the master of the Five Armies Dudu's Mansion, and Li Wen, a colleague of Song Yichun's when he was a scholar.

Mentioning this incident, Song Yichun was filled with resentment.

He originally wanted to invite the third son-in-law to be the officiant.Who knew that the third son-in-law was unwilling to take over on the grounds that he had never been the officiant before.He had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and ask Anluhou to come forward. He never thought that Anluhou still hated Song Mo for wearing small shoes for him. Not only did he not invite him, but he also listened to Anluhou's cynicism in Anluhou's mansion.He was so angry that he jumped around the house, scolded Song Mo severely, and thought of his uncle Lu Fuli, but Lu Fuli said that he was old.His energy is low and he can't stand the hustle and bustle, so let him hire someone younger.

This back and forth, wasting time, they hastily found one of their subordinates and a close relative of the same department to be the marriage partner.

Xie Wan looked at the two people.The corners of his eyes twitched.

After all, I was born as a Jinshi in the second list, drinking at the same table with a government official and scholar? [

He held his forehead and said that the wind was blowing, and gave the matter to the county magistrate Ma Hao, and ran away in a sedan chair.

Wanping County is Jing County, and the county magistrate also has two Jinshi backgrounds.

Ma Hao was secretly glad that he was just accompanying the guest today, but he didn't expect that he would become the host in a blink of an eye, and his complexion changed suddenly.Sitting in the East Wing for guests, drinking tea and chatting, but not coming out to socialize.

The Miao family had no choice but to invite the two matchmakers from the Song family to sit in the west wing, and let the Quanfu people on both sides greet Qi Kuo.Send a written order.

A red gold collar inlaid with many gemstones, ruby ​​earrings the size of lotus seeds, a heavy red gold bracelet with new silk patterns, and a yellow horseshoe ring.

Mother Miao saw these jewelry.Eyes are laughing into a slit.

The Quanfu people of the Song family invited Mrs. Song San.

She gave Miao Ansu a collar, earrings, bracelet and ring.

There was a hint of a smile in Miao Ansu's eyes, and she was supported by the maid.Get up and kowtow to Mrs. Song San.

Mrs. Song San took two gold-pinned handkerchiefs as a salute, and then the accompanying servants brought presents for each house of the Miao family.

Wen Dingli counted it.

Mrs. Miao and Mrs. Song went to the main room to discuss the dowry and wedding date.

Miao Ansu's personal servant girl walked in and out, and said with a smile: "Madam, miss, I have already seen clearly that the Song family sent tea and wine. The fourth master said that the tea is the best West Lake Longjing, and the wine is authentic." North Shaanxi thick wine."

Miao Ansu pursed her lips and smiled.

Mother Miao glanced at her daughter and said angrily, "I'm satisfied now."

Miao Ansu pulled her mother's sleeve and acted coquettishly.

In the main room, Mrs. Song San's face turned frosty.

She lowered her head and took a sip of tea, then slowly put down the teacup, and then said: "As the saying goes, the male is selected first, and the female is the first. The 36-year-old wedding ceremony and the 1 taels of silver dowry are for our British government. It’s not too much. When Shi Ziye got married back then, the dowry of 120 and four levies cost a total of 120 taels of silver. However, the family of Shizi’s wife returned the dowry gift of 4 and six levies, two of which were all ten There are two silver bills worth as much as 10 taels, and the total price exceeds 3 taels. According to this amount, your residence must buy at least... a dowry of [-] taels of silver."

The other party did not make a sound.

Is it very angry?

Mrs. Song San raised her head, and saw the Miao family's great aunt from the Quanfu family of the Miao family looking at her with her nipple so wide that she could swallow a toad.

She couldn't help sneering in her heart. [

A dowry of less than 3000 taels of silver, but wanting a dowry of 1 taels of silver, how could such a good thing be possible?

When she married the Song family, the dowry was only 2000 taels of silver.

If it weren't for the nobles in the palace to intervene, with their Miao family, they would not be qualified to carry shoes for the Song family, and they still want to be her nephew and daughter-in-law, go ahead and dream!

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt that Dou Zhao became very close.

When Dou Zhao first came here, the rewards given to servants were all eight cents apiece, and her daughter got eight of them alone. Another reward of 1000 taels of silver was given.

Can the Miao family get it out?

No wonder the sister-in-law refused to come, she had known for a long time that the Miao family was a shameless shabby household.

Mrs. Song San sighed inwardly.

The British government’s family has a big business, so it’s not that they can’t afford the 1 taels of silver, but the Song family offered a dowry gift of 1 taels of silver. The bride came in, but only had a dowry of 3000 taels of silver. The Song family couldn’t afford to lose face.

Still, my sister-in-law is smart!

Don't stick to it at all.

After myself.It takes a lot of attention.

The eldest aunt of the Miao family really didn't know what to say.

Things had come to a point where she was completely overwhelmed.

Will someone spend 10 taels of silver to marry their daughter?

10 taels, how much land do you have to buy!

If you have this money, don't leave it to your son and grandson, but take it to someone else's house for your daughter?

The Song family is blackmailing her, right?

Nianguan flashed, she settled down, and said with a smile: "We don't care about what other people's families are like. The wife said well, the man and woman are selected, and the woman is the same. If the Song family offers a dowry of 1 taels of silver. We Just accompany the girl with a dowry of 5000 taels of silver, this is something to be particular about, it's not up to you or me."

"That's right." Mrs. Song San stretched out her hand to caress her temples and said. "I already understand the meaning of your mansion, and I will tell the Duke when I go back. What about the wedding date?"

The eldest aunt of the Miao family laughed and said, "The dowry has not been agreed yet, so how can we set the date of marriage?"

Mrs. Song San snorted coldly in her heart.

It seems that the marriage cannot be discussed today.

I'm afraid I still have to study in the future.

She is not one to let things go, thinking that this marriage was bestowed by the emperor, how could the Miao family dare to regret the marriage?

Since they have Joe, let them carry it.

When the time comes, the emperor asks, will the emperor still help the Miao family?

Ten thousand steps back.If no one asks, Song Han is a boy, even if it takes three to five years, there will still be someone who warms the bed.Maybe even the eldest son and eldest daughter of the concubine, the Miao family is in a hurry.If he said no, he would beg the Song family to marry someone in quickly.

When the time comes, let's see who looks at whom!

Mrs. Song San simply got up and said goodbye: "In this case, I will go back to the mansion first. I will visit my wife after your mansion makes a decision."

The implication is that the Song family only offered a dowry gift of 5000 taels of silver.You can agree or not.

The eldest aunt of the Miao family stood there in a daze.

The Song family, what does this mean?

Do you still want to resist the decree?

Are they not afraid of the emperor's rebuke?

She couldn't help saying: "This marriage was decided by the nobles in the palace."

Mrs. Song San smiled lightly, with an undisguised sarcasm between her eyebrows and eyes: "Our father-in-law went to the palace to meet the emperor yesterday, but the marriage was not settled, so we just need to explain it to the emperor. The eldest aunt of the Miao family ’ ‘Grandma’ don’t worry.” Then she turned around and walked out.

Mrs. Miao, who hid behind the door and listened in the corner, was in a hurry.

The Song family can enter the palace at any time, and they can face the saint at any time. The Miao family will not even mention the emperor, even if the prince has never seen him. , Wouldn't you be wronged?

She came out from behind the door with a busy smile, and called Mrs. Song San: "The banquet outside has been set, and we are just waiting for you to take a seat to start the banquet." Mrs. Song San raised her arms and said softly, "Several masters of our family have accompanied the two matchmakers from your mansion to the banquet. We should also go there."

The Song family also accompanied Mrs. Song San to make a small appointment. Mrs. Song could not ignore these people and go arbitrarily, right?

Mrs. Miao looked at Mrs. Song San with a smile.

Mrs. Song San raised her eyebrows noncommittally, and was accompanied by Mrs. Miao to the banquet of the female relatives.

Mother Miao couldn't wait to pull the eldest aunt of the Miao family, and said in a low voice: "What's the matter?"

The eldest aunt of the Miao family had a gloomy face, and said, "The Song family is only willing to offer a dowry gift of 5000 taels of silver." Then she told Mrs. Miao what Mrs. Song had said about Song Mo and Dou Zhao's wedding, and said: : "Tell me, is this true or false? If it is true, it will be troublesome. How can our family get so much dowry? Isn't An Su married by Mrs. Shizi? Come on, don't move!"

Mother Miao was tongue-tied.

"Really?" She hurriedly went to find Father Miao, "I have to discuss it with her father."

The aunt of the Miao family shook her head and went to the table.

After listening to Miao's mother's words, Miao's father couldn't help feeling sad.

Miao Ping'an, who came to see Father Miao to accompany the guests, couldn't help laughing "puchi" when he heard this, and said, "I see you are worried, what's so difficult about it?"
