The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman
Chapter 391
According to Lin Daiyu's family's private family, Baoyu is a perfect match, but the second daughter-in-law has long hair but short knowledge. She insists on being optimistic about the merchant girl, and even sneaks up with her mother to see what advantage she has now?
"My sister came later than Xian. She is so beautiful today!" Second Mistress Lian looked at Jia's mother with wrong eyes, and quickly joked. She didn't want to leave a bad impression on the Lin family.
Lin Daiyu's cheeks were a little blushing when Second Mistress Lian held her hand and praised her!
Wang Xifeng's face is kind and bitter, but for those servants, she has a strong nature and likes powerful people. She has seen Li Ruoxi's methods before, so besides the gift from Jia's mother, there is also a gift from her own room. One, also smiled: "The old lady is thinking about my cousin, I also want to borrow my sister's blessing, cousin don't dislike it."
Lin Daiyu smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Zhu is very polite. Inside, my aunt is here too. Second sister-in-law, please come in." The situation is really good now. I have to show my face.Outsiders also know a lot about the filth of these two families, so it's okay to get along on the surface.
On the contrary, Wang Ziteng was really mellow. After inquiring about the married daughter of the Lin family, he sent his own wife to add make-up.When Wang Xifeng heard that her mother had also arrived, she was delighted, and went in after joking.
Not long after, Princess Zhongshun also arrived, and now the hall is full of noble ladies, such as Princess Nan'an, Princess Beijing, Princess Zhongshun, Princess Zan, Prince Beijing, etc., and there are Prince Teng and Mrs. Mei, the second assistant of the cabinet. , Mrs. Judgment in the left courtyard of the imperial hospital, Lian's second grandmother and others. After seeing the ceremony, they sat down again.
Mrs. Jiang only has such a son. As the only son in the house, the dowry gift cannot be shabby. Therefore, Mrs. Jiang's dowry gift is very generous. The clothes are made of Shu brocade or even Yun brocade, and the pearls and gemstones are also packed in boxes. of.There are also large boxes of spices brought back from Nanyang, and there are also twelve sets of golden head noodles, which are made by skilled masters, corresponding to the twelve flower gods, and each set is extremely exquisite and magnificent.
Then count the value of the gold and silver in the dowry, and calculate it.The dowry is worth at least 5 taels.What's more, there are many things that money can't buy at all.
For example, the pair of three-foot-high coral bonsai were handed down from the imperial palace, as well as unpolished red and sapphires the size of pigeon eggs.The smooth and round pearls, not to mention the pure color, are not small in size.They are all first-class Nanzhu, and there are also jadeites from Laokeng glass. Although they have not been polished, these are good things that can be passed down as family heirlooms.
The great generosity of the Jiang family amazed the participants, but many people did not take it seriously. After all, the Lin family only had a prostitute like Lin Daiyu, and she was left behind by the first wife.The first wife's dowry must be given to Lin Daiyu, and Lin Chang also loves this daughter very much, so she definitely doesn't need to let her marry with the dowry left by her mother.
When Jia Min got married, it was the time when the Jia family was in its heyday.Now the Lin family is also prosperous, that is to say, Lin Daiyu is married alone, but she is actually holding two shares.Therefore, although the betrothal gift is generous, if you look at Lin Daiyu's dowry, it's a big deal!
The Lin family is really rich and powerful, and has accumulated a lot of good things over the years. Even this kind of large-scale furniture is made of yellow flower pears. Everyone was taken aback.
Compared with many families whose descendants proliferate, the family property is monthly, although Lin Chang's branch is not a single lineage, but in Lin Chang's generation, his family has only one son, and his father's generation only has three sons. Bro, plus he's been on the river for years.
This is already a very impressive figure!
Moreover, Jia Min's dowry must be inherited by Lin Daiyu, the only daughter, so these can be legitimately put in Lin Daiyu's dowry, starting with Zhuangzi shops in Suzhou, Yangzhou, Jinling, Beijing and other places, because the number is relatively large. It is impressive that the dowry list does not specify the amount, but anyone who is interested can guess how much property this is. ?
Because of the etiquette system, Lin Daiyu's dowry was calculated to be 98 liters, but the dowry boxes were all specially made, much larger than the usual capacity, and filled to the brim with gold, silver, jewelry and the like. It's heavy, it can make those who carry the dowry around the city a little out of breath halfway.
Those flashy clothes of four seasons and various materials do not occupy a high proportion. After all, these are the least valuable. Just like the later generations, there are different fashions every year, and it is similar now.
Moreover, the textile technology these days is very high, but the dyeing technology is not so good. Natural dyes are no match for those chemical dyes of later generations. After a long time, naturally they will not be as bright as before. Therefore, for rich families, many clothes are almost worn out after not being worn a few times!
Moreover, the patterns are refurbished every year, so new ones are made every year.Therefore, although there are a lot of ready-made clothes and materials in the dowry, compared with similar families, it is at least [-]% less.
On Lin Daiyu's dowry list, many things are vaguely written. For example, there are two boxes of red and sapphires, one box is half full, and one box is full. How big is the box?How many pearls and jades are there, how many are called how many?Coupled with those antiques of calligraphy and paintings that are not very easy to estimate, many of the lone books are actually assembled into sets and bumped into the box, making people who know the goods itchy.
When displaying the dowry, the dazzling array of brocade, gold and silver almost dazzled people's eyes. After a little calculation, Lin Daiyu's dowry was only on the bright side, and the value had exceeded 20 taels.
Mrs. Wang, who came to watch the ceremony and put on makeup, was full of jealousy and resentment. She suddenly regretted it. If she had agreed to the old lady and let Jia Baoyu marry Lin Daiyu, wouldn't it mean that all the property of the Lin family would be hers.Anyway, Lin Daiyu looked short-lived at first glance. When she died, what kind of woman would Baoyu not be able to marry?
Mrs. Wang was almost scratching her heart and lungs. She sat on the lower head of Jiamu, her face was almost tense.Mother Jia gave her a sideways glance, which forced her to restrain herself, but the expression on her face was still a little unnatural.
Because it reminded her of Xue Baochai's dowry. In fact, to be honest, Xue Baochai's dowry was already thick enough according to her status. Even if Jia Xichun married in the future, she might not be able to have such a rich dowry!
But, this person is afraid of comparison, people are more than dead people!
Lin Daiyu was able to carry [-] more dowry than Xue Baochai, which is almost half more than Xue Baochai. In addition, although her younger brother Lin Mo is still young, she is extremely smart. As long as she does not go astray in the future, she will definitely have no future. questionable.With such a clever son, Lin Chang naturally didn't have to prepare some family property to protect his old age like Aunt Xue, and there was Xia Jingui watching over him!
Moreover, the Xue family has already spent several 10 taels of silver on the Jia family. Although they are talking about borrowing, everyone understands the actual situation. , can't get up too much.
Mrs. Wang is very regretful now, because she thought that when Mother Jia told her at first, she was talking about the entire family property of the Lin family, but it was because she refused to agree, that's why Lin Chang married his stepwife and had that little bastard...
How did she know that the Lin family was so rich at the time? Just looking at Lin Daiyu's dowry, even if it doesn't count the final silver at the bottom of the box, 30 taels must be there.
This is when the Lin family has a son!Because Lin Chang has a son, Lin Daiyu's dowry will definitely not take away all of the Lin family's property, not even a third of it. In this way, how much is the total property of the Lin family, even if Mrs. Wang can figure it out in her heart It is not a correct number at all, and it will make Mrs. Wang regret it for a long time!
It was in vain that she still had the reputation of being a money fan, but she missed out on such a big deal, and Madam Wang regretted it all!
Although Xue's family is rich, and Xue Baochai's dowry is also thick, but those are all theirs.In fact, Mrs. Wang didn't get much money from Xue's family at all. At first, it was the other courtyard, so the money was spent, and it was related to her daughter. No matter how greedy Mrs. Wang was, she would not be greedy there.
As for later, all the money taken from Xue's family was sent to the palace by Mrs. Wang!As for Xue Baochai's dowry, even if Mrs. Wang is greedy, she can't force Xue Baochai to give it to her!Therefore, although the Xue family gave out so much money, Mrs. Wang was not satisfied at all, because the money did not stay in her hands at all, how could this make Mrs. Wang satisfied!
But no matter how ups and downs I have in my heart, what kind of thoughts are wandering around, under such an occasion, Madam Wang is just a pleasant order of the fifth rank. among the wives.
She can be called Mrs. Wang at home, it is purely because she is the daughter-in-law of the Duke's Mansion. According to the order, the Jia family only Jiamu and Xing can really be called Mrs. You, even though Youshi has Commandment, but it's still one level behind.No matter how much dissatisfaction she had, she couldn't express it at this time. Therefore, she could only force a loving smile, but a hint of sternness flashed in her eyes.
When it comes to makeup, the elders are responsible for adding makeup. Jia Xichun of the Jia family and some little sisters Lin Daiyu knows also have their own ideas, but most of them are needles and threads made by themselves, just for the sake of their hearts. After all, they have met for a long time ... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.

ps: Thanks to [Su Jinger] children's shoes for reminding, Lan Lian was ashamed and angry, and the Lun family actually misremembered cp.The Lun family made a mistake, the Lun family repents!Such a big bug, Lan Lian, has come out, my God!I don't have the face to see everyone!Sure enough, I have been stunned by a string of numbers in my head these days! (Lan Lian is forced to study accounting, so...)
Therefore, Chapter 390, the Lun family has to rewrite it again, please come back tomorrow!In addition, because of the overhaul, today's third update is gone, and tomorrow's fourth update will be made up for everyone.
