Bian Zhu's words were so straightforward that Bian Xiaoping's mother, Bian Wang, couldn't help but poke his waist and eyes with her arm.

When reminded by the people around him, he also felt that what he said was too abrupt, at least he had to wait for them to finish their meal before slowly mentioning related matters.

But now that this sentence has been thrown out, Bian Zhu didn't intend to divert it with other topics, and continued with this sentence: "Well...we don't need much bride price here, 100 taels The money is almost the same." After he finished speaking, he seemed to feel a little guilty for what he said, and then he lowered his head and knocked the bong on the side of the stool, and the ash fell from it.

Bian Xiaoping didn't expect that when she just came home, what her parents asked her was not how she had been in the past few years and why she came back early, but asked Gu Kai for the gift money... If it was true, if she got married, They haven't prepared the dowry yet.

She has been away from home for a long time, and even though she and her parents are close relatives, since they just came back, it is impossible to say how close they really are.

Even when she first came back and sat at the table to eat, she felt a little uncomfortable.

At this time, what they should do is to inquire about each other's life experiences, recall the past by the way, and bring back the long-lost intimacy.

Bian Xiaoping originally planned to tell her all about her experience during the long talk late at night, and then said that she wanted to buy them a big house in this town... If they are willing and Gu Kai agrees, he can also put the The family went to the mansion in Kyoto, which is very big anyway.

My younger brother is just at school age, so he can go to a school in Kyoto to receive a better education.

She listed these thoughts one by one in her mind, looking back and forth to see if there was anything she hadn't thought of, and when she was eating, she hoped to finish eating quickly, and then said her plan as soon as possible.

As a result, she heard her father say these words after she had eaten less than half of her meal.

Her heart was cold at that moment, she raised her head hastily, before she could swallow the food in her mouth, she looked at her father.

Bian Zhu lowered his head and knocked on the cigarette ash. From her perspective, he could only see messy hair.

She turned her head and looked at her mother again, and saw that the smiling mother smiled at her a little reluctantly, and then quickly moved her eyes away, as if she didn't dare to look directly at her.

She fell silent suddenly, she couldn't hold the chopsticks tightly, and they fell to the table with a thud. She reached out to stop them, but she only blocked one, and the other rolled to the ground.

Someone seemed to be walking by in the alley, and the crackling sound came from the crack of the door.

Bian Xiaoping squatted down, trying to pick up the chopsticks she had dropped. She felt a little uncomfortable and uncomfortable, and wanted to cry, but her eyes were dry, and no tears flowed out.

When she squatted down, Gu Kai suddenly reached out and stroked her back.

This action does not contain any erotic meaning, it is just pure comfort.

Bian Xiaoping suddenly raised her head from under the table, and fell into Gu Kai's eyes in a hurry.

She was dazed for a while, and then she came out from under the table holding a chopstick.

At this time, Gu Kai also began to answer Bian Zhu's question. He seemed to want Bian Xiaoping to understand more about her parents' thoughts, so he deliberately made a embarrassed expression: "Father-in-law, I can't raise 100 yuan for the time being." Two silver coins, can you...can you give it a few more days? I can also plan it."

Bian Zhu took a look at Gu Kai and felt that this man was extremely poor. If he were to preside over his daughter's marriage, he would never choose such a son-in-law anyway.

The rich man in the town just lost his wife two days ago, and he is planning to remarry recently. If Bian Xiaoping hadn't married Gu Kai in private, and married her to the rich man, he would definitely get a handsome gift.

Moreover, he also specifically inquired that although this rich man is a bit old, he has always been very gentle to his wives and concubines, and even raised each of them with good food and drink.

Bian Xiaoping is quite pretty, and she came from a nobleman, with good looks and status, this rich man must love her very much.

If she can still give birth to a son for him, her position will be more stable, and the huge family property belongs to her.

How can it be like now that you still need to live with a poor scholar who even has to raise a dowry of 100 taels?

Bian Zhu thought about many things in a mess, and finally the more he thought about it, the more unhappy he felt. He only felt that his eldest daughter really had no vision, and gave up a life of prosperity and wealth to spend time with a poor boy.

Thinking of it this way, he felt that his whole body had confidence, and he didn't feel guilty when he looked at Bian Xiaoping again, only the feeling of hating iron but not steel lingered in his heart and face.

"My Ping'er," Bian Zhu raised his bong, and started to chat with Gu Kai as if he was going to talk for a long time: "I have been a famous little girl in ten miles and eight villages since I was a child. Smart and virtuous." He raised his pipe and took a deep puff, then continued in the cloud: "This time she came back from the palace, and she is considered to have served the emperor, so the betrothal gift can't be like other people's. "

He wanted to continue talking, but Bian Wang yanked his clothes fiercely. When he stopped what he was about to say and looked back in doubt, she forced a smile on her face and said to Gu Kai: "Uncle, don't listen to the old man's nonsense, you... take one hundred, no, eighty taels of silver is enough."

After saying this, she seemed to finally have the courage to speak out what was in her heart, so she sighed and said to Gu Kai: "Ru'er is also a big girl, and it takes a lot of money to buy a dowry... Yang'er wants Going to school, you are still at the age of growing up, and you have to buy a lot of things..." At the end of her speech, her tone became lower and lower, almost making people unable to hear anything.

Bian Zhu was interrupted by Mrs. Bian Wang, and originally wanted to lose his temper, but after hearing what the mother-in-law said, he could only reach out and wipe his wrinkled face, glanced at the direction of Bian Yang's room, and sighed leisurely. Take a breath.

Bian Xiaoping felt uncomfortable when her mother said these words seriously, but she still felt very uncomfortable after thinking about it.

If you want to prepare a dowry for Bian Xiaoru, why don't you think that she also needs a dowry?Listening to their tone, it seems that the four of them are a family, and I am just an outsider who came to play the autumn wind.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was not a good taste, and she couldn't eat the remaining half bowl of rice, so she reached out and put the chopsticks aside.

After Bian Wang said these words, she always felt like a villain who did evil. Seeing Bian Xiaoping's face was not good, she felt very uncomfortable.

Seeing Bian Xiaoping put down the chopsticks, she hurriedly reached out to take them over, turned around and went to the kitchen to clean the dirt-stained chopsticks.

Bian Xiaoping took a deep breath and didn't want to hide her worth anymore, so she turned to Bian Xiaoru who had been silent by the side, took out a piece of silver from her bosom and handed it to her: "Here, my sister hasn't seen you for several years, this is a supplement Your pocket money."

The piece of silver she gave was not large in size, even if it was a random reward in the palace, a small piece of silver at least twice the size would be used.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, this is their one-month living expenses.

At this time, it was enough money for them to live for a month, but Bian Xiaoping casually took it out and handed it to his sister calmly, saying it was money for candy, which was very surprising.

Bian Zhu was still immersed in the emotion of asking for a bride price, but he heard the voice again that the eldest daughter was giving money to the second daughter?

He looked in the direction of Bian Xiaoping and Bian Xiaoru, and saw Bian Xiaoping took a piece of silver and stuffed it into Bian Xiaoru's hand.

Bian Xiaoru didn't know whether he should accept the money his sister gave him, and was looking at him in a panic, hoping to get an answer from his father.

Seeing Bian Xiaoping's actions, Bian Zhu had a bad premonition in his heart for no reason.

After Bian Xiaoping finally forcibly handed the money to her younger sister, she sat up straight, and her originally easy-going aura seemed to change suddenly. In Bian Zhu's eyes, Bian Xiaoping is now like a queen in the palace. Extravagance.

Bian Xiaoping imitated the gestures of women in the harem, but her heart was vaguely uneasy. She turned her head and forgot to take a look at Gu Kai. Seeing that he kept looking at her with a smile, without any negative emotions in his eyes, she involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to look at her. His eyes moved back to Bian Zhu.

She straightened her chest, and with a reserved smile, she reported her experience to Bian Zhu and Bian Wang who came back from washing the chopsticks.

The content before meeting Gu Kai was lackluster, so she summed it up in a few words: "I have been serving women and girls in the palace, and then I met my husband," she said, and she did not forget to cast an affectionate look: "Xianggong is the imperial physician in the palace. The two of us were surprised and admired each other. In the end, the matter was known by the emperor and empress."

She paused for a moment and looked back at Gu Kai. Gu Kai also knew what was going on, and hurriedly took up the conversation: "Not only did the Holy Majesty not blame us, but he also gave Ping'er the grace to leave the palace as soon as possible, and even made her the princess. See the mansion for us."

This experience was really bizarre, and the eyes of several people present were wide open when they heard it, as if they were listening to a script.

But the two of them would not be able to make up such a ridiculous story to deceive them... Bian Zhu pondered, judging the authenticity of what they said in his heart, but Bian Wang didn't think much about it, and just said quickly, "This experience is true." Bizarre", and then felt that his haggling behavior just now was really unworthy of the stage, and obvious shame appeared on his face.

Now that they have finished talking, Bian Xiaoping and Gu Kai don't have to hide it.

Gu Kai went to the inn and asked the coachman to bring the carriage over and parked it at the door of Bian's house. They went to the carriage and took all the things they brought, and put them one by one on the table in the main hall.

When he saw a beautiful large carriage appearing at the door, Bian Zhu's doubts disappeared a lot, and after seeing these things, all his temper was wiped out.
