Chapter 1177: let go of obsession
Chapter 1177 Let go of obsessions
Jiang Erye and Jiang Huai asked Chai Yi'an to go out at noon and came back early the next morning.
Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu rushed to the main room of the West Courtyard and saw that their father had changed into his official robes, and they were going to the yamen for an errand. My sister was embarrassed to ask, so Jiang Liu stepped forward and asked, "Daddy, have you made it?"
Jiang Erye smiled lightly, "Is there anything I can't do for my father?"
Jiang Muyan's eyes lit up and asked in a low voice, "Father, that garden..."
"15,000 taels." Jiang Erye took out the land deed for the garden and handed it to the eldest daughter, "Today you send someone to Xicheng Bingma Division to transfer the garden to your name."
Actually only used 15,000 taels? Jiang Muyan was overjoyed and thanked the title deed with both hands. Because her father didn't like the politeness and restraint of her children in front of him, Jiang Muyan performed her filial piety with practical actions, "Yes. You will go back to the house for dinner in the afternoon, and take a break before you go to work in the yamen? My daughter will prepare lotus root pork ribs soup for you."
"Okay." Jiang Erye nodded and said to Yazheng enthusiastically, "You can go to see the garden together when you have time, and see how you want to repair it. When Erlang becomes a relative, we will start cleaning the garden."
In eight days, Jiang Erlang and Yuan Xiayue will get married, and the most important thing in the house is to arrange the marriage.
After sending Jiang Erye out, Yazheng and the two daughters became happier as they talked, and the mother and daughter simply decided to take a look at Yuanzi. Knowing that her son bought a dowry Zhuangzi for the third girl, Mrs. Jiang also wanted to take a look. In the end, it became the whole travel of the Jiang family's daughters.
After arriving in Baima Alley, Waiting Square, and seeing the three-entry house, everyone entered the desolate garden. Jiang Mujin ran around with his younger siblings, Chen and Yan supported their mother-in-law, Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu supported their pregnant mother, and Jiang Mujin ran around with their younger siblings, exclaiming and laughing.
Not to mention how the Chen family is sour and the Yan family so envious, Mrs. Jiang, who likes to take care of flowers and plants, wanders around, and is delighted to find some old peony, peony, orchid and other flowers from the weeds.
This is the dowry garden that Jiang Erye bought for Jiang Muyan. As for how to renovate the garden, it is of course Jiang Muyan's meaning. Ya Zheng said with a smile, "Take the time to visit Lingbao Temple together, the two of you, and ask Guanzhu Yu Yuanzi to come over and straighten out the feng shui of the house. This is a major event, and it must not be sloppy. If the Guanzhu said that peach blossoms need to be planted, he would take it from our yard. Move this way."
"Yes." Jiang Muyan, who has always been calm, now has a look of joy on her face. After returning to the house, Jiang Muyan took advantage of the presence of her grandmother and mother, and took the initiative to mention the matter of repairing the garden, "Grandmother, mother, the money for buying the garden and repairing the garden should be paid from the dowry money that my father prepared for Yan'er?"
As stepmother, Ya Zheng was not easy to speak, so Mrs. Jiang said directly, "Just from the dowry money."
With the words of my grandmother, the matter is settled. After her father returned to the house for dinner in the evening, Jiang Muyan discussed with her father again, "Juntang has decided to separate from the Liu family, and my daughter thinks that my dowry should be reduced. The father added a garden to his daughter, so the daughter wants to take two The dowry Grange remains..."
Jiang Erye disagreed, "The field is the most reliable. If there is a field, you will not be hungry no matter what time it is."
Jiang Muyan discussed with her father in a soft voice, "How about the daughter bring Liujiazhuang left by her mother and the farmhouse in Qixian County that her father bought for her daughter? Juntang's parents helped him buy a farmhouse in Qixian County. The grain and fruits are enough for my daughter."
Seeing her father frowning, Jiang Muyan was no longer as frightened as she was in previous years. She followed her mother and sister and learned how to discuss things with her father. "After the daughter is married, if she is wronged, will the father still decide for the daughter?"
Jiang Erye said immediately, "That's natural!"
Jiang Muyan smiled and said with courage, "A father's love is the best dowry for a daughter."
The girl's words made Jiang Erye float to the sky, "Okay, it's all up to you."
After negotiating with her father, Jiang Muyan returned to her boudoir, took out her dowry list and deleted it, and the extra part was transferred to her sister's dowry list. In one night, three pages were filled.
Sitting on the bed covered with bamboo mats, I listened to my sister explaining one by one why she prepared these dowries for herself. Jiang Liu was relieved that her sister had finally let go of her excessive obsession with dowry, but at the same time she felt a strong reluctance to give up. She hugged her sister and whispered, "I can't bear to marry my sister, and I can't bear to sleep with my sister separately."
"When you can't bear it, look for me at the Dexianfang. I will build a small courtyard in the garden, and you can all live there." Jiang Muyan smiled softly. The garden was bought by her father, and she was always there for her. Yes, this made Jiang Muyan feel extra at ease.
Knowing that the elder brother's father-in-law had a relationship with the owner of the garden in Baima Lane, the waiting room, and took only 15,000 taels to take down the garden, Liu Junting couldn't believe it was true.
Learning that Jiang Erye had bought a garden for his daughter as a dowry, Yuan Chunjie immediately went to Yulinwei Camp to find Jiang Erlang, and told him that he would buy a garden for Eryue as a dowry in Kang'an City.
Jiang Erlang is a concubine in the family. After his sister married him, he could only live in a small courtyard, which made Yuan Chunjie feel very uncomfortable. "I'm used to running outside in February, so I have to buy a place for her to run horses. , the place to play the whip."
Yuan Chunjie felt sorry for his sister, how could Jiang Erlang not feel sorry for his wife who was about to enter the house, "I have built a spacious house in the village next to the camp. After we get married, if Er Yue doesn't like to live in the mansion, But come to Zhuangshang for a short stay. When I'm not working at night, I can also live with her in Zhuangshang. Brother, let's go and see?"
Brother-in-law has taken this into consideration, Yuan Chunjie is happy for his sister, but he still wants to buy another one in Kang'an City, "The house in the village outside the city is not as comfortable as the comfort in Kang'an City."
After leaving the camp, avoiding everyone's eyes and ears, Jiang Erlang persuaded in a low voice, "This place is not like a border town, a house can easily cost tens of thousands of taels. Look at General He Hu, the right Weiwei, who married his daughter to the censor Taibai. It has been nearly 20 years since the imperial censor, and the two have been living in the house of Liangjin until this year when they want to marry a daughter-in-law, and then they bought the house next door. The bride of the Bai family is Jiang Xijing's cousin, the elder brother said Are these two short of money?"
There is no shortage of that, Yuan Chunjie was silent. The generals of the forbidden army stationed on one side have money, not because of the high salary given by the court, but because the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the generals have their own ways to make money. If you look deeper, there is a problem with the way their money comes from. However, everyone is well aware of opening one eye and closing one eye.
If you want to use the silver for fair use, you have to mix up to a certain level, and after you have the royal gift.
Yuan Chunjie patted his brother-in-law on the shoulder, "Just listen to you."
