Chapter 0381 Counting the Betrothal Gift
Seeing that the other party was so good, Chen Youde was shocked and nodded in response: "Yes, yes."
"Then let's not waste time, just count the betrothal gifts?" Su Chang did not make things difficult for Chen Youde at this time, but instead showed a big family attitude.
Their master went away. Logically, the Shen family accepted the betrothal gift, and the marriage was already a promise to each other.
Even if they have not passed the family, the two families are already in the family. If the Su family insists on making things difficult for Chen Xian'er and the master of the Su family to celebrate the church, it is reasonable to prove it.
But the Su family did not do this, and even treated him with courtesy as soon as they came to the door today, which made Chen Youde feel a little surprised.
After all, at the moment, I received the betrothal gift and broke the engagement. For a big family like the Su Mansion, it was a bit of a slap in the face. I thought the other party would make me slap some words, but I didn't expect that I would just exchange a few greetings. Check out the betrothal gift.
Chen Youde was overjoyed and his mouth was uncontrollable, and his ears were full of grinding: "Okay, no problem. The betrothal gifts are all in the back room, they are not moved intact, and there are quite a few."
In this way, he took Butler Su and his group to the back room.
The back room was locked, after all, the things inside were too expensive, Chen Youde was a cautious person, so he didn't dare to make a mistake.
When I opened the door, the betrothal gifts inside were piled up by Lao Gao, and almost filled the back room, which shows the Su family's work at that time.
Then Su Chang instructed the people of Su Mansion to take the gift list and count them one by one.
Seeing this, Chen Youde couldn't help but smile and said, "Butler Su, who is not missing any other one, has been locked in the back room since the day he was sent. No one has ever come in, and I have never come in myself. .”
Su Chang smiled and nodded, "I can trust Brother Shen, but I also follow the rules. These are the procedures that should be followed."
"Yes, yes." Chen Youde nodded repeatedly, but his heart was not ashamed.
Not only is it worth it, but his back is also three points higher than before, because this is the first time he is not deceived by money. He has so many gold, silver and jewelry locked at home, but he has never touched it before.
So even if the other party was counting one by one, Chen Youde was not panicked because he knew how much things he sent that day, and now he would take away so much things, not even a copper plate.
At this time, Su Chang suddenly turned sideways, looked at Chen Youde in a chatting tone and posture and asked: "Brother Shen, I still asked curiously. Didn't everyone agree on it at that time? Why did he regret it within a few days? What about?"
It seemed that Su Chang would be so direct, Chen Youde was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth and didn't say anything.
When Nian saw this, he quickly smiled and said, "We blamed us for this matter, and we didn't mean to ask Xian'er in advance. Although it is correct that my father and I decide on the marriage, our daughter has been raised since childhood. Such a big thing cannot be completely ignored by her thoughts."
"We are looking at the great family of the Su Mansion. Xian'er will definitely be married and will not be wronged. It is a good destination. But I didn't expect that our daughter has already belonged to her. The Nie family in the same village as ours The boy grew up together since childhood, and the two had already decided to live for life."
"My daughter is forced to die. Butler Su, you said, can we parents watch our daughter die? This is not only based on her wishes, I'm sorry to your Su family."
Nian said something comprehensively. He first lowered his attitude and admitted his mistakes, and then praised the Su family. Finally, he used the reason why his daughter was forced to force each other with her life. It was a complete solution.
Chen Youde hurriedly nodded and agreed: "That's right, butler Su is also a father, right? He should be able to understand our parents' thoughts on children."
Su Chang gave face and nodded with a smile: "So that's it. Since he is a childhood sweetheart, he should not be broken up."
Chen Youde did not forget to show off Nie Kun's identity to satisfy his vanity. He saw him casually saying, "No, right? But if you want to say that this boy from the Nie family is indeed a worthy of entrusting. People, my daughter has a good vision."
"The young man is diligent and studious, and he is honest and kind. This year's imperial examination, he suddenly won the second place, which is the best result of our Huaiyang imperial examination this year."
"Oh? The boy from the Nie family mentioned by Brother Shen is actually the first in the second place in the imperial examination this year?" Su Chang showed surprise.
Su Chang's reaction at this time was true. Although he knew that a seventh-rank imperial official named Nie Kun had appeared in Shijie Village under Changling Town this year, he did not know the relationship between Nie Kun and the Shen family.
When Su Chang heard that he knew Nie Kun, Chen Youde couldn't help but smile proudly: "It's him, Lord Nie!"
"Oh, Brother Shen is so lucky. His son-in-law is actually a seventh-rank official. He has entered the official position at such an age. The future official path will be bright and unlimited." Su Chang was also a scene person and immediately flattered him.
Chen Youde is very helpful, and I thought to myself that Su Changding compliments himself so much because he knew that Nie Kun was his son-in-law.
At this time, the person responsible for counting the betrothal gifts suddenly walked to Su Chang and whispered a few words in his ear.
Su Chang's smiley expression suddenly frozen, and his eyes subconsciously looked at Chen Youde.
This look made Chen Youde's heart inexplicably "jump", and an ominous premonition arose for no reason.
"Butler Su, what's wrong?" Chen Youde couldn't help asking.
Butler Su suddenly turned cold after hearing the man's words, and shouted loudly at the man: "How come there is no jade Ruyi? You must be counting it carefully, so you can re-invent it for me immediately!"
“Yes!”
The man nodded quickly, turned around and called on others to start counting again.
But Su Chang's words scared Chen Youde and Nian to death, missing a piece of jade Ruyi?
How is it possible? They have never touched this betrothal gift, how could they have lost a piece of jade Ruyi?
Chen Youde was panicked, and the pride in his heart just now disappeared. He hurriedly stepped forward and explained in a panic: "Butler Su, this is absolutely impossible. I have been locking this betrothal gift in the back room since you sent it. It is absolutely impossible. There will be fewer things, I haven't even come in myself!"
"Yes, our family never comes to outsiders on weekdays, and our family members don't even touch this precious thing." Nian also spoke hurriedly.
Both of them were nervous and followed.
That's not an ordinary thing, it's a bottle of jade, what kind of family can use jade?
Although they don’t know the value of a jade Ruyi, they can think of it and know it’s priceless.
