Chapter 652: dowry
Chapter 652 Dowry
The Liao family moved quickly, and the matchmaker knocked on the door of the Jiang family the next day, and proposed a marriage to Jiang Muzheng for the Liao family. The two sides exchanged geng posts, and asked the matchmaker to join the eight characters in the temple.
The combination of eight characters is based on the date of birth of the male and female and the zodiac sign to predict whether the two are compatible. Before the eldest sister got married, Jiang Liu was still worried about what to do if the eldest sister and the prospective brother-in-law were in conflict with each other.
At that time, she was laughed at by her sisters. After her sister's explanation, Jiang Liu realized that before the two families started to discuss their relationship, they had already found someone to meet the eight characters in advance.
Therefore, the result of Jiang Muzheng and Liao Chuanrui's eight-character divination is naturally an auspicious hexagram that men and women are not mutually exclusive. Next, both men and women are convenient to set up posts, and choose auspicious days to post posts.
When the man decides to post, he only needs to explain whether the three generations of Bai Zu’s ancestors are blue and white, whether there is an official, who is the person who is discussing the marriage, and whether the parents are waiting in the hall. .
The house, jewelry, gold and silver, pearls, jade, treasures, curtains, etc. that must be included in the dowry can be listed according to the marriage regulations.
Jiang Muzheng is a concubine, and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Chen, would not bother to cut her flesh to add makeup to her, so Yazheng and Mrs. Yan went to the North Court with half of the pre-planned appointments and asked her mother-in-law to decide.
"Mother, the Liao family has already agreed to buy a house with two entrances in Kang'an City. We don't need to take care of the other houses, but we have to arrange the furniture in the new house. Do you think this is the case?" Mrs. Yan Be the first to speak.
Jiang Muzheng is the concubine daughter of the Jiang family, and Yan's husband is a concubine. In the future, when Jiang Mujin gets married, the dowry cannot be compared with the three serious daughters in the family. Yan's plan for her daughter naturally hopes that Jiang Muzheng's dowry will be more, because Jiang Muzheng's dowry will be more, and her daughter's dowry will be more in the future.
Mrs. Jiang nodded, "Beds, cabinets, tables, chairs, screens, etc. are essential."
"Yes." Mrs Yan picked up the pen and wrote it down, then looked up at the second sister-in-law. Next is the highlight. She is not enough, so it is suitable for the second sister-in-law to say.
Yazheng said, "Mother, apart from the decoration at home, what else do you think you need to add to Zhenger to marry?"
When the eldest granddaughter got married, she married a servant, five maids and three maids. The second granddaughter is a concubine, and cannot surpass the eldest granddaughter, but Mrs. Jiang considered Liao Chuanrui's mentor and Zhang Wenjiang's face, too little to justify, and said, "Dowry to the next person and four maids."
"Yes." The eldest niece has eight maids, the second niece has four, and her own daughter can marry six. Not bad, Yan shi raised the corner of his mouth happily and wrote it down.
Ya is continuing to bring up the main event, "What do you think of the land and housing industry?"
Mrs. Jiang said, "This is your eldest brother's decision. He will buy 20 acres of fertile land for Zheng'er outside Kang'an City, and add a rouge shop. The rouge shop is ready-made and does not need to be purchased again. The money comes from the six hundred taels of dowry money."
Isn't one thousand taels? Yan Shi paused, not daring to look up. Ya Zheng said with a smile, "Since it was ordered by the eldest brother, then my younger brother and sister and I will do as the eldest brother wants."
It was 400 taels of silver for nothing! With blood dripping from his heart, Yan Shi silently wrote it down.
Mrs. Jiang glanced at the third daughter-in-law and said slowly, "There is a difference between the concubines and concubines. If you rely on me, five hundred taels is a lot."
Mother-in-law said this to her. Mrs. Yan reached out and pinched her thigh secretly. She raised her head and replied with a smile, "Mother is right. Five hundred taels plus a rouge shop is really not too much."
Mrs. Jiang nodded with satisfaction, "A family of flowers is worth three or four hundred taels. As for which rouge shop to marry, it's up to Liu'er to decide."
Let Liuer decide? Yan was stunned.
As Jiang Liu's mother, Ya Zheng couldn't help but say a few words, "Mother, how old Liu Er is, it's up to you to decide."
Mrs. Jiang had already made up her mind, "No matter how old she is, she also opened these shops."
"Even if it was Liu'er's idea to open the shop, it used the money from the house, and the management of the shop is also from our house." Chen shi heard the news and complained to her husband in a low voice, "The shop is doing well, how can the credit go to Liu'er? What about the child?"
Sitting at the table, Jiang Song, who was reading the text on the ancient bell ding, replied, "Yes, Rong'er also opened a rouge shop in Shaoxing. Does Madam know how the business is?"
Chen shi whispered again, "How can Shaoxing be compared to Kang An?"
Jiang Song's eyes were still on the book, "There are hundreds of rouge shops in Kang'an City, and every day they lose money and close their doors. Our rouge shop can make money, and Liu'er and Jin'er have contributed to it. Madam should not be jealous. "
Why is she jealous of the virtuous? Chen shi moved to her husband, pulled his sleeve and said, "Master has wronged the concubine body, you know that the concubine body doesn't mean that..."
Jiang Song raised his eyes and saw his wife's aggrieved appearance, and couldn't help laughing, "Madam is afraid that the four shops will accompany you to send it out, and you have no powder to use? It's easy to say, let's open a powder shop with more money. "
ah? Chen Shi was a little silly, no, that's not what she meant.
Jiang Song said again, "If Madam is free, Madam will take care of this new shop."
How could she have the time and ability, Chen shi quickly said, "Master, let Liu'er take care of it. Liu'er has a lot of heart, and things will come up, so she can definitely take care of it."
Jiang Song praised, "Since Madam thinks Liu'er is suitable, then leave it to Liu'er. Just now, it was my husband who misunderstood Madam. Madam knows people and works well, and she is a good helper for her husband."
Being praised by her husband, Chen shi's dizzy head lightly rested on her husband's arm, and she laughed very happily. Jiang Song raised his hand and touched her head, and continued to concentrate on his studies.
In the study room of Renfu East Courtyard, Jiang Liu and his sister looked at each other.
My sister opened four Huaxiangrong one after another: two in the West City, one in the East City, and one in the South City. In terms of business, the one in Nanshi opened the latest and the store was the smallest. Jiang Muyan weighed it again and again and found that no matter where it came from, it was not suitable, so she said, "Why don't you let the second sister choose?"
Jiang Liu replied, "If you do this, the second sister will definitely pick the one in Nanshi."
The second sister's temperament will indeed choose this way. The second sister's dowry is the thinnest among the four sisters... But if the second sister is given the best business, not only Jiang Muyan will not agree, but the third aunt will also be dissatisfied.
Jiang Liu didn't talk about his plans for now, he wanted to hear what his sister would do, but who would have thought it would disrupt the situation at this time.
Jiang Erye strolled in and asked, "Which room do you want Liu'er to get?"
Jiang Liu replied, "Anywhere is fine, what does Daddy think?"
Jiang Erye said casually, "Since that's the case, why don't you four draw lots?"
Ginger stay…
Jiang Muyan…
