Chapter 101 The Submissive Mother’s Concubine Ceremony (Please vote for me)
(There is another update in the morning, don’t miss it. I had a fever last night and collapsed. I woke up early this morning and coded until now, making up for yesterday’s two updates. Thank you again for your monthly votes.)
Not only did Sanlang treat his younger brother well, but Wang Qi also regarded Dao Chi as his brother. Of course, he couldn't stand being gossiped about.
After finishing the meal and going home, Wang Qi went to Mrs. Wang and defended the Taoist idiot. Mrs. Wang just listened with a smile and did not answer anything.
Wang Qi scratched her head and ears anxiously, but there was nothing she could do, so she went to her grandmother Wang Zhang again.
Mrs. Wang Zhang looked at her husband with a smile, rubbed her grandson's head, and said: "This kid really wants to tell your grandfather what he wants, and he still goes through all these roundabout ways."
Wang Qi hurriedly waved her hands and said: "It's not that the grandson wants anything, but that he is thinking about his grandfather. Since my grandmother has taken care of Erlang a lot, she is no less good this time. Sister Shun Niang always has to help with the dowry, so as to save others this and that."
It’s so annoying.”
Mrs. Wang Zhang smiled and said: "Silly boy, even if you want to help, it's not at this time. Why are you in a hurry?"
Wang Qi got the right words from her grandparents, and she was determined. She rolled her eyes twice and then went to grind Wang Zhen...
The wedding day of the Zhang family is scheduled for October 28th. The wedding tent will be set up in the outer nine rooms on the 26th, and relatives and friends will come to add makeup.
Dao Chi and Wang Qi brothers left the palace on the afternoon of the 26th. This time they did not bring Tiger Head with them, and Lu Bing did not ask to follow him. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he was stopped by Fan.
First, Dao Chi's family is cramped and there is no room for guests; second, the formal wedding is even busier than when the betrothal gift was given. No matter how young Dao Chi is, he is still the head of the family, and he still doesn't know how busy he is. Wouldn't it be more troublesome at this time?
.
It was for this reason that the Taoist idiot did not take the tiger head out of the house. The house was in a mess, and it would not be good if the tiger head was not taken care of.
Although no one was brought out, there were a lot of big and small boxes. The princess was given by the Crown Prince, Fan’s makeup, the three princesses and the little princess were not left behind, and they all prepared gifts. The former was looking at Wang Qi’s.
Face, the latter is due to acquaintance with Dao Chi.
Except for four pieces of Shu brocade, the remaining jewelry and hairpin rings are mostly made of gold and jade.
For Shun Niang's status as a married woman, these additions are not only valuable, but also have auspicious meanings. If Zhang Qinghe wins the Jinshi, Shun Niang will be an official dependent and is eligible to wear gold and jade. Even if he does not wear these things, they will be kept as a gift.
It is valuable to pass down a family heirloom, or to sell when you need money.
Due to the circumstances of Waijiufang, Dao Chi wanted to give Shun Niang a dowry of gold and jade jewelry, but it was not easy to buy them. I thought it was just right to get these.
Unexpectedly, when I got home, I saw several pairs of gold hairpins and jade rings, as well as ruler-headed silverware, etc. sent by the female family members of the clan.
The dowry for Waijiufang has been prepared for a long time. Not only the Zhang family's betrothal gift has been brought back with the dowry, but also other properties, houses, furniture, jewelry, clothes, etc. are complete.
Even if it is not as good as the ten-mile red dowry of a wealthy family, it is extremely rare to be able to buy such a dowry with nine living rooms.
Mrs. Zhang, the king of the clan, brought her granddaughter-in-law here to add some extra dowry. Wang Qi complained about it, and she was worried that the dowry was not complete and would make people laugh. After all, she was the one in charge of the marriage, and Zhang Qinghe was her beloved grandnephew.
.
In addition to the four pieces of jewelry, Mrs. Wang Zhang also brought eight pieces of cloth and two pieces of silverware. She thought that if the dowry of the outer nine houses was insufficient, these items could make up for a few loads.
Unexpectedly, Waijiufang not only bought Shun Niang a full set of dowry, land, and two large houses. The Zhang family's betrothal gift was also given away without leaving any part.
Although the amount is only sixty-four dowry for a whole dowry, it is packed to the brim. If you pick it out, you can make up another thirty-two dowry. The outer ninth house is not like this, which shows that the Taoist who is in charge is restrained and not frivolous.
of.
This dowry was already very respectable, and Mrs. Wang Zhang couldn't help but feel a little confused. She was older and had a higher seniority, and as an old sister-in-law in the Wang Ning family, there was nothing she couldn't ask, so she directly asked about the origin of the dowry.
When she found out that Dao Chi, a brother, spent more than a year buying the dowry for Shun Niang one after another and pawning off many of her biological mother's belongings, Wang Zhang was deeply touched.
Not only brothers and sisters, but also Taoist idiots can throw themselves into the marriage, which is really benevolent and righteous. Treating your sister like this, how about treating Wang Qi?
As a young grandson, he is older in age than his cousin above him, so he doesn't get along very well. Rokuro, who is about the same age, is not close to him. It is also a good thing to be friends with such a benevolent and righteous clan brother as Youdao Chi.
When the jewelry and materials brought back from the palace were revealed, the standard of the entire dowry seemed to be three points higher.
When the guests saw him, they remembered that Waijiufang's reputation was not only due to his closeness to the clan, but most importantly because the young master of the family, Waijiufang, was the prince's companion.
No one knows the situation in the palace; judging from the expensive makeup alone, the second son of the Wang family must be somewhat respectable.
The uncles and brothers of the Wang family who came to visit Wang Qi were often asked to inquire about something.
Of course Wang Qi knew that although the prince treated Erlang well, he had to take some credit for the extra money. The princess and the three princesses all did it for her own sake. Because Liu Congyun also had a sister get married at the beginning of the year, and only the prince
After giving the gift, the princess did not show up.
Wang Qi felt faintly proud, but at this time she didn't show it at all. She wanted to make Erlang look good, and praised him like a flower. She said that the prince Zeng ordered Dao Chi and Lu Bing to accompany him, saying that they were always together.
Meaning, Taoist Chi is the most popular person in Wangfu's companion reading.
If other people said this, the listeners would probably sneer at it. Since it came from Wang Qi's mouth, most of them would believe it. After all, Wang Qi is also the prince's companion, so there is no reason to suppress himself and praise his clan brothers.
The result of some bullshit was that the number of guests doubled from the next day. Many clan members who did not have much contact with the outer ninth house also shamelessly took the initiative to come over to have a drink.
Among them, there is the wealthy Sanfang. The supplementary makeup included is a pair of gold-headed face, at least a dozen or so.
Since the third house was jointly renovated by the clan and the twelfth house last year, its vitality has been severely damaged and it has calmed down a lot. The conduct of the third house and his wife is not as arrogant as in the past.
The rooms in the outer ninth room were really not open to accommodate guests, so the eighth master made a decisive decision and opened the door of the outer eighth room and diverted all the male guests there. It would be more relaxed to accommodate guests in both courtyards at the same time.
Although Wang Ning was embarrassed to bother Bafang, there was nothing she could do about it, so she had to thank her again and again.
When sitting in two places, it is essential to offer gifts in two places. The eighth prince did not allow his children and grandchildren to receive gifts, so he personally found Wang Zhen and asked him to arrange for people to work in the accounting office in the yard.
It's not that the old man looked down on Dao Chi, so he didn't look for Dao Chi, but he knew that he didn't have many manpower, so he could only entrust the accounting affairs to the Eighth Fang. Only Wang Zhen always helped the Ninth House, and there was no shortage of manpower around him.
.
Dao Chi only heard people mention it later, and he only admired the Eighth Master.
There were more clan members offering congratulations, and the team sending makeup almost doubled in size, which was quite impressive.
Except for Wang Zhen and an older man from the eighth-largest household, the rest, all teenagers surnamed Wang, Dao Chi, Wang Qi, and San Lang were also included.
Many people passing by stopped to watch the excitement, and they were not surprised when they heard that the people delivering makeup were from the Wang family. The Wang family is a well-known surname, and it is well known that their descendants are prosperous.
Although the Zhang family's father and son are both kind-hearted people who value the character of their mother-in-law and do not dislike the poor family, there are many relatives who have a vision of wealth.
Especially knowing that the eldest son of the Zhang family was well educated and had a bright future, and that his aunts and uncles, who had been interested in playing matchmaker and protecting fiber for their nieces and the like, came over early, waiting to see the Zhang family's jokes.
Who would have thought that there would be such a movement.
The grandson of the Wang family personally came to deliver the dowry, which was actually sixty-four loads and the dowry list was one foot thick.
Mr. Zhang glanced at the dowry list a few times, and then hurriedly ordered someone to send a message to the concubine. She should be more careful when drying her makeup, so as not to make any mistakes and make people laugh. After all, there are many good things on it, just in case someone can't help it.
, everyone is shameless.
Mr. Zhang was just preparing for a rainy day, not wanting to be rewarded twice in a short while. Mr. Zhang's face was ugly, the Zhang family was not as good as before, and many members of the clan were in decline. He usually came to fight against the autumn wind, so he could only help. For them
Mr. Zhang pretended not to hear most of the harsh words he expressed dissatisfaction with his eldest daughter-in-law.
Unexpectedly, these people even had evil intentions. Fortunately, they were stopped. If the dowry was really lost, it would not only be the Wang family who would laugh at him, but he, the father-in-law, would also be embarrassed to see his daughter-in-law...
Although there were some minor hiccups, it finally passed peacefully.
The next day, October 28, is the time to get married.
On the day of Shun Niang's wedding, the guests were all beaming with joy. After praising the bride and her uncle, they couldn't stop shouting congratulations. Although the grandsons and grandsons of the ninth family also had smiles on their faces, they felt really bad in their hearts.
Wang Ning and Shun Niang were dependent on each other for life. They never thought that they would be separated one day. Now they are not only married, but they will also be separated by thousands of miles. Although the old lady wanted to understand that this was not a bad thing for Shun Niang, but it was so close that she felt in her heart.
It's like cutting with a knife.
Shun Niang felt even worse. If she hadn't been afraid of angering her grandmother, she almost wanted to say she wouldn't marry. Besides being reluctant to give up, she also felt deeply guilty. Even if she had a brother, she shouldn't have to leave all the duties of serving her grandmother to him.
I shouldn't have agreed to marry outside last year.
Even if the two aunts in the eighth house outside said that if she stayed and did not marry, if her sister-in-law came in and they didn't get along well with her, she would be in trouble, so she should not nod and agree to marry outside. She is not a quarrelsome person.
Why do you want to quarrel with your sister-in-law? Erlang has always been filial and courteous, and will never indulge his wife in being unfilial. What does she have to worry about?
It's too late to think about it.
Dao Chi's heart was extremely complicated. He was obviously marrying a sister, but he felt as reluctant to let go as if he were marrying a daughter. If Shun Niang was half as aggressive as Rong Niang, he wouldn't be so worried. But Shun Niang's temperament,
I'm really worried.
In addition to being reluctant to let go of Shun Niang, he was also worried about Wang Ning. After all, the old man was getting old. He was so sad and happy that if something went wrong, he would regret it. He took the time to go to the old man's side. When there was no one, he would go there.
The words of Jingcheng were brought up again and again.
The old lady heard her grandson mention this earlier, and thought he was trying to explain her words. She listened to him talk about it again and again, and couldn't help but feel a little concerned: "Erlang really has this plan?"
The Taoist idiot said: "Of course, my grandson is still lying?"
The old lady hesitated and said: "Where is the palace?"
Dao Chi smiled and said: "My grandson is young and is still far away from being a errand. It would not be a good idea to study for two more years."
Seeing that he had made up his mind, the old lady felt much better thinking about the day when she would meet her granddaughter.
At Shun Niang's place, the old lady also gave some explanations, and the grandfather and grandson finally lost the sorrow of separation and death.
In the bustle, Shun Niang, wearing a red hijab, got on the sedan chair...
