Chapter 367: Dying Mother Jia (13)

What can I add? No matter how precious the things I add, can I still compare to that old pious woman?

Jia Shi continued to say depressedly.

Although she didn't want to admit it, she had to admit it, that there was nothing in her hand that could be more precious than Qiao Mu's things.

That, madam, what you add cannot be more precious than the old lady, this is etiquette.

Or, add a shop?

Or add a small village with three or five hectares of land?

No matter what, things will always be added.

The master is still waiting in front of him.

Although Mama Lai knew that this was Jia Shi's angry words, she still reminded and suggested.

The preciousness of things given by younger generations cannot be higher than that of elders, and the preciousness of things given by lower officials cannot be higher than that of high officials. These are common human relationships that should be understood without anyone saying it.

I'm so beautiful that she's so beautiful!

Those things may be fixed assets that can make money. Moreover, it is so difficult to buy shops and farms in the capital now. Wouldn’t it be a pity to give them to her?

I also have two ancient books and a picture of the saint of the previous dynasty competing for beauty.

You just send those three things over.

Anyway, their Zhang family is all literati, so how could I use gold and silver to defile them? Just give some things that cultural people use. I think they will like it.

Jia Shi’s current thoughts are exactly the same as Jia Xu’s (original body) back then.

All I give is not my concern.

Something I don't like very much.

But I don't know what others want.

Yes, madam!

Lai Mama wanted an answer to get a job with Jia Daishan. Therefore, after receiving the confirmed response from Jia Shi, she immediately took her leave and went to Jia Shi's private warehouse to pick up the things and send them there.

Jia Daishan, who was waiting in the front hall, did not look at the things delivered. He put two books and a painting into a box specially placed in a painting and calligraphy, and began to call on the servants to carry the betrothal gifts.

The seventy-two betrothal gifts were sent from their Jia family to the Zhang family. Of course, the distance was not as far as ten miles. After all, they all lived in this capital. If it was too far away, they would not be able to get on court every morning. Ten miles of red makeup was just a subtitle, not that it was really ten miles away.

Soon, the people on the street saw Jia She, who was full of energy, riding a white horse, walking in front of him, followed by a group of servants carrying various betrothal gifts and bands beating drums and drums. The road was lively and prosperous, heading towards Zhang Taifu's house.

All the idle people on the roadside came over, either standing on tiptoe to look, or opening their eyes wide, stretching their heads forward, and looking carefully.

I want to see what betrothal gifts are available.

It's also a little more insightful.

By the way, I went back and sarcastically with my neighbors.

They have seen the world.

Good, Rongguo Mansion is really rich.

This betrothal gift looks like only ten fewer than the betrothal gifts prepared by the Interior Ministry when the prince’s wedding was half a month ago. Moreover, it seems that it is less than ten fewer. It is hard to say whether it is precious or not.

At least the Jia family's betrothal gift box is larger than the betrothal gift box prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

How much more stuff can be stuffed inside!

It's true that he made money from war.

The family foundation is thick.

Several juniors, who are also dukes, are sitting in a teahouse near the street, watching the moving crowd below, chatting with envy and jealousy.

Not all Dukes have money.

To put it bluntly, it is really a drought death, a flood, some are rich, and some are almost poor.

Haha, what you said, the eight founding states of our country have never made any money from war.

If I ask me, their family has such a solid family background and can afford such a betrothal gift, it is probably mainly because their family has few families. The first Duke Rong Guo was Jia Daishan, who had no son and even a daughter. The family property was not just about entering and leaving.

Now Jia She is the eldest son of their third generation. Isn’t it okay to be willing to pay the money?

Unlike your Niu family, the ancestors are amazing. They gave birth to more than a dozen sons and more than twenty daughters in one go. However, their family property is so rich, even the family's wealth will be reduced. If your family had not been prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs this time, they would have bought such a dowry!

Liu Fang, the grandson of Duke Li, sneered.

The one he laughed at was Niu Jizong, the current Crown Princess's biological brother, the grandson of Duke Zhenguo, and Niu Jizong.

You! Don't go too far!

Your Liu family has given birth to a lot of people differently.

It’s better to think about yourself than to care about my skills. Your father has given birth to more than twenty sisters and sisters for you. I don’t know how many things you can get at that time. It’s really ridiculous.

Niu Jizong immediately sneered and refuted.

The older girl doesn’t talk about the second girl, the two families are just fifty steps away. For the few families here, which one of them is not a grandfather and grandchildren, and the three generations of descendants combined has more than a hundred. When the old Duke goes back and leaves, everyone’s wealth and assets will instantly shrink several times.

At that time, I'm afraid I'm not even as good as some wealthy businessmen.

Oh, who can blame this?

I can only blame my mother and grandmother for not working hard enough.

The old Duke of the Jia family suffered physical damage during the war and had only got Jia Daishan's living son. Even if he wanted to take a concubine and have a child, it was impossible. However, Jia Daishan's health was not bad. The reason why the number of third generation people in their family was so small was that it was the result of Jia Shi's efforts, and the result of Jia She's mother's efforts.

As far as I know, the concubines of the Jia family have had many miscarriages and many deaths over the years. It has been more than ten years. Jia She only has two more sisters, not even a single brother. This is the result of his mother's efforts. Unlike our mother, she has only received a compliment with a grandmother's style, but in fact she doesn't know how much property she has lost.

Hou Xiaokang, the grandson of Duke Xiuguo, also suddenly laughed out loud from the side, and chose an extremely tricky angle to tell the reason why their families had such an ending.

Not to mention, it makes sense.

If the mistress of the family was a jealous woman and she would not allow too many concubines to be born, the family would naturally not have so many family property. At the same time, the concubines and concubines who were required to prepare dowry and betrothal gifts would be required.

You guys are really tricky in this angle.

But it makes sense. Unfortunately, it's too late now. We can't personally attack them for the sake of family property. Brother Ji Zong, I remember that when you got married last year, you only gave me only 64 betrothal gifts. And there wasn't much good stuff in the betrothal gifts, mostly animal skins and crystals.

Yoho, such a big coral, my god, there are three golden trees and honeysuckles behind it.

This is comparable to Shi Chong fighting wealth!

Brother Ji Zong, fortunately we got married before Jia She. If we were to delay this and then get married, we would probably be picked up by the people in the capital to compare with him. Then we would be disgraced.

The grandson of Duke Shanguo Shi Guangzhu was cheerful. Seeing the blood coral and golden honeysuckle that were carefully raising below, she first took a deep breath, and then said with great gratitude.
Chapter completed!
