Ai Ruo's life in the red mansion

Chapter 1

Marriage always requires a dowry, but Miaoyu's dowry can never be given a bank note.Besides, Jing'an is actually a very calm person. Ai Ruo and the queen know that they have a lot of money, but only Jing'an knows how much money they have.And she didn't intend to tell anyone except Miaoyu that she was used to being cold by herself, and she didn't know how to get along with her only niece, let alone outsiders, so she also It was the result that she didn't trust anyone.Naturally, no one could really find out her details.

Now the Jia family is getting married as soon as possible according to her request, and they have worshiped Miaoyu's adoptive parents' family with a good family. I was in a hurry, so I asked Mrs. Xiong to pass the message on her behalf, and asked Ai Ruo to come to the house to tell.

Ai Ruo is also anxious, the bride price and dowry have not been discussed yet.The dowry is not something you can give as much as you want. It depends on the man’s dowry. Of course, the dowry will be returned to the dowry in the end, and it will be carried back to the man’s house, but etiquette is etiquette. The dowry she gave to the Liu family After talking with Mrs. Liu first, according to the rules of the Liu family, according to the gift, so that the Liu family will not have any burden, but now, the problem has arisen.If she dares to give more to Miaoyu, the Liu family's unyielding heart will be even more uncomfortable. This will easily make the eldest daughter-in-law feel uncomfortable. Even if she didn't feel partiality before, she will feel it in the future. Then, she Naturally he would not like Miaoyu, how will the two sisters-in-law get along with each other in the future.So before Jing'an didn't look for her, she wanted to look for Jing'an, but Jing'an's temper didn't mean that she could see her whenever she wanted, not to mention that her in-laws on the surface were Xiong's family, not Jing'an.So in just a few days, Ai Ruo felt that his hair was a few fingers gray.

Finally, Jing'an sent someone to call, and she hurriedly brought out the eldest daughter-in-law's dowry list and the dowry list for the Liu family, and took the car to Xiong's house in her arms.

Mrs. Xiong is in a good mood recently. Although Miaoyu is not very funny, she is absolutely elegant. Her eldest son and daughter-in-law are not around, and her daughters are all married, only one youngest son.She was still in the academy every day, and there was Ning Xin'er who was as quiet as Miaoyu beside her. She really felt as if she really had an extra little daughter.On the contrary, she was willing to worry about her more, the dowry and dowry were important matters, so she hurriedly brought Ai Ruo into Jing'an's quiet room.

Jing'an is a very calm person. I have already inquired about it before, and the first-class dowry in Beijing is about 5 taels of silver.After they greeted each other, they took out the small red sandalwood box with [-] silver bills in it, and gently pushed it in front of Ai Ruo.

Ai Ruo opened it to see, she didn't know how much it was, but the first one was the leading ticket, such a thick dozen.At least three to forty thousand taels, it seems that what Jin Ling said is correct, this one can really put on ten miles of red makeup.Blind people's eyes.However, now she thinks clearly, she doesn't need to blind others' eyes, everyone in the world knows that this is her daughter-in-law.So whether it is a dowry or something, it doesn't need to be noticed by people.They wished they were doing well, so they gently closed the box and pushed it back.

"What?" Jing'an was a little puzzled. Ai Ruo's expression seemed dissatisfied. She was also a seasoned Taoist, so she resisted the idea of ​​overweight.

"Actually, for the dowry matter, the master doesn't look for the old man, the old man will come to the master. The master should also know that from the standpoint of the old man, he really doesn't want to embarrass the eldest daughter-in-law in this matter." It hurts, but she really can't help it. After marrying a daughter-in-law, she is about to become a grandmother again. It would be rude not to be so appreciative.

"It's just like this, family and everything are prosperous. Now I'm putting my sister-in-law on the head for the sake of face. Turning around, my sister-in-law has nothing to do to show face. In fact, it is our Miaoer who is uncomfortable." Mrs. Xiong understood the truth and hurriedly persuaded her Jing'an.

Even if Jing An was a monk since she was a child, she still came out of the house. It cannot be said that she is a victim, but that she is personally tired of that kind of struggle.Otherwise, the Miaoyu she raised would not be so good at getting along with people.From Miaoyu, I can actually know a little bit about this character.But now she is Miaoyu's only blood relative in this world, so she will naturally think about many things.Although she understood Ai Ruo's painstaking efforts, she couldn't show weakness at this time. After all, she didn't let herself overwhelm the eldest daughter-in-law's natal family. In turn, she was actually letting them show weakness. Why would Miaoyu show her head in Jia's house in the future? ?

"Miao'er has no reliable natal family, and the poor nun is an outsider. Even though Mrs. Xiong loves her in every possible way, after all, some things will be difficult. If even the dowry... the madam tells the poor nun how to meet her underground sister in the future, Brother-in-law?"

"This is the dowry list of the eldest daughter-in-law's family and the amount of our dowry. We don't care about how much money you give in the box and how much money you have from your private house. When our master split the order back then, it was only [-]. In [-], he worked hard and made progress. I ran the family diligently and saved little by little for the children. In the future, I have also made up my mind that I will not let Chen'er stay in the mansion. When Miao'er grows up and consummates the house, I will Separate the family for them, and they decide what kind of life the young couple want to live. You understand what I mean!" Ai Ruo was able to talk about his old body at the beginning, which was considered to be a face for Jing An, and now when he expresses his thoughts in a hurry, he also Too lazy to be polite, just me.But Jing'an doesn't have that American time to mind what she calls herself, she is thinking about the meaning of Ai Ruo's words.

"Separation after consummating the house?" Mrs. Xiong's eyes flashed. Now that she is from her natal family, she naturally understood the meaning of this.

"Yes, I was tortured by my mother-in-law and sister-in-law before. It's not that my mother-in-law and sister-in-law are bad, but my family has grown and the population has increased. There are always troubles of this kind. Now that the eldest family is an official outside, I will take After a few years, Miao'er has grown up, consummated the house, and called the elder brother back, asking the clan host to divide the family. Miao'er will be a guest when she comes back in the future, and everyone's sisters-in-law will still be affectionate, what do you say right!"

"Yes, you are thoughtful. Master, the dowry is a dead thing, so you should keep the silver. When Miaoer comes out in the future, you can add whatever you want." Mrs. Xiong nodded, then turned her head and said to Jing'an.

This time Jing An understands that Ai Ruo won't care what they accompany in private, but on the surface, she must be on par with the eldest daughter-in-law's family, preferably a little lower, to show respect for the elder sister-in-law.The family will always be separated in the future, so there is no need to confront each other like this.

Quietly picked up the list, and looked at Xiao Liu's dowry, she had never done this before, she really didn't know, just glanced at it, and her brows were frowned.Because no one is in a hurry.The dowry is something that a woman will use in her life, which means that my daughter has never used yours, so you have to treat my daughter better.The dowry was the only property that women in ancient times could control independently, which is why Jing'an picked the most expensive one and just pretended to be so much.She must not make people look down on Miaoyu.But now she realizes that it's not about money.

No wonder getting married now, it takes a year or two to get married. It takes a few months to prepare all the furniture and embroidery. The hijab is embroidered by hand, isn't it?This is not something that can be done well in a day or two, and then it is hard goods. The dowry is how many acres of land, how many rooms, and how many bunks are accompanied by it. Monthly money, this is a little private money that the young couple can have in the future.So choosing a good berth and a good house, these all take time to go out and find out.So Jing An felt a little dizzy when she saw it.

"The days are a bit rushed, and there is a right to do things. Zhuangzi's matter is not easy to handle, but let's not worry about it. There are some furniture in our Zhuangzi. They are polished and painted, but they are very good. The main reason is that they will not I will live at home, even if I fight now, it will be a waste, do you think so?" Ai Ruo has a secret plan in his heart, and hurriedly put forward his own ideas.

"Is it okay to use Jia's furniture?" Madam Xiong frowned. There is no shame in thinking about this.It's just that I don't have time to play now, but I always feel a little awkward in my heart. "

"Isn't it time now? As I said just now, Brother Chen is the second son, and Uncle Zhicheng's mansion will be passed on to Brother Zhu in the future, so the place where they live now is not their future home. If they really fight, I'm afraid they won't need it. Besides, they don't know how to share a room now, and the courtyard is just a decoration. On weekdays, Miao'er still lives in the inner courtyard, and the furniture is just for outsiders to see. "Ai Ruo really doesn't think it's good to make a new one for the sake of face. In principle, she really doesn't think it's good.

Mrs. Xiong now feels that the Jia family is really a good in-laws, and she really thinks carefully.It's a pity that their family doesn't have a suitable girl now, otherwise it would be nice to marry one back.Thinking about Jing'an's face, thinking about it, Jing'an doesn't like to use other people's old ones.

"The furniture is..."

"The furniture was brought back by the old man before. It is a new set of high-quality old camphor wood. It was placed in the original Rongfu Lixiangyuan. Later, after the old lady went to the Spring and Autumn Period, he wanted to move to the Lixiangyuan to study. This style seems a bit It was new, so this set was moved back to the warehouse and replaced with red sandalwood. When the house was separated, it was distributed to us. We originally wanted to put this set in the new house, but the Rongfu asked us to move back, and the new house was I rented it out. The furniture was so good that I was not willing to use it for others. I moved it back to the warehouse in the country and never used it once. I thought it would be given to the fourth child in my family in the future, but it is the same for the third child. "
