Lady of Rebirth

Now that Song Junjie came, he couldn't avoid it. During dinner, the whole family sat at the same table, and even Zhong Yuanda was helped out. Song Junjie explained the reason for coming in front of everyone. Once, Song Junjie was actually a little afraid of Su Zimo, but he had no scruples after getting the promise of Su Houye to allow him to take a concubine, and he was in the Zhongfu, so he naturally flattered Zhongming in every possible way, but Song Junjie's words The performance made Zhong Yuanda and Song Wenshu even more dissatisfied. No matter how Su Zimo is the wife, Song Junjie should be able to flatter Zhong Ming in front of Su Zimo today, and leave Zhong Ming to find other women tomorrow. A wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as stealing. This marriage must never be agreed to. Song Wenshu has already expressed her position, so she winked at Zhong Yuanda.

Zhong Yuanda is a businessman, he is a three-point traitor, not to mention he is a wealthy businessman, he has no airs in front of his wife and daughter, and he just does everything according to their wishes. As for Song Junjie, with his businessman's sophistication Why can't he see what Song Junjie's real purpose is, wanting to be his son-in-law is just thinking about his family possessions.

Zhong Yuanda asked Zhiqin who was waiting on the side to pour the wine for him and Song Junjie, then raised his glass and said: "Junjie came from a long distance, I respect you for this glass."

Song Junjie quickly stood up, "Don't dare, it's my nephew who respects my uncle."

Zhong Yuanda pressured him to sit down, took a bite of food, and then said: "I heard you brought all the betrothal gifts?"

Seeing his heavy face, Song Junjie kicked in his heart for a moment. To be honest, he didn't know his uncle well. He heard that when he married his aunt Song Wenshu, Zhong Yuanda was just a small businessman. He really has the ability, I don't know why he asked this question, so he nodded and said: "Yes." He also added, "These are all prepared by the old lady herself, I'm afraid I will lose my courtesy." Song Junjie pushed all the dowry matters. When it comes to Mrs. Song, if the Zhong family has any dissatisfaction, they can't blame him.

Sure enough, Zhong Yuanda talked about the dowry gift, and said: "Your aunt told me that she is not very satisfied with the dowry gift."

Song Wenshu gave him a blank look, she kicked the problem to him, was kicked back again, hurriedly said with a smile: "Junjie, don't listen to him, I just said something different from what I thought, your uncle misinterpreted my meaning gone."

Song Junjie asked: "But the customs are different?" He didn't talk about money in a daze.

Zhong Ming couldn't take it anymore, and interjected casually: "My parents think you have given too little betrothal gift."

Song Junjie's face froze, and he smiled awkwardly. Of course he didn't forget the 2000 taels that Zhong Ming had mentioned to him, but he felt that the Zhong family was already rich enough, and they weren't short of the money. Well, if Su Zimo was not there, he could still say that the old lady refused to give the money. Now that Su Zimo is beside him, if he said no, Su Zimo would expose him on the spot. Su Zimo only gave 500 taels. He took a look at Su Zimo's self-sufficient eating, as if he had nothing to do with them. My uncle wronged me." He took out a stack of bank notes from his pocket, 100 taels each, a total of twenty, and said, "Here is 2000 taels, because it is not a small amount, so I didn't dare to put one with the dowry gift. .”

Unexpectedly, Zhong Ming snatched up again: "If my father doesn't tell me, aren't you going to show it?"

Song Junjie sneered and said: "How can I, I promised you, and I will naturally do it."

Zhong Ming originally thought that because of Song Junjie's stingy temperament, he would not be willing to take out the money, so she would push her back and refuse to admit it, so she just took advantage of it, but now it is hard to say anything.

Su Zimo who was beside him suddenly said: "Sister-in-law is really generous, he just took a concubine, and he actually offered 2000 taels of silver as the dowry, does my father know about this?"

Song Junjie didn't expect Su Zimo to ask this suddenly, and of course he understood what she meant. If Master Su knew about this, it would be difficult for him to explain. The hundred taels of silver was just for a moment, so I had no choice but to say: "I'm going to ask you now, but you gave me the 2000 taels of silver."

Su Zimo said lightly: "Sister-in-law was joking. You said that you needed money urgently, so I would give it to you. How did I know that you were using it to take a concubine? If I had known this earlier..." I just said half of it and then stopped.

Song Junjie was so angry that Su Zimo was lying with his eyes open. The money was obviously for him to marry Zhong Ming, and he didn't even ask for it. It was Su Zimo who gave it to him suddenly one day, and said anxiously: "Obviously! It's you……"

"What about me?" Su Zimo interrupted him, "Although you and I have been married for so long, we don't get along well, but I am also a dignified wife. Could it be that I give you money to take a concubine? I don't have that big a stomach yet. "

Song Junjie had nothing to say, Su Zimo was clearly lying, but what he said was reasonable, which family's wife would willingly let her husband take a concubine and return the money.

Song Wenshu heard another meaning and asked, "Is the Song family headed by Zimo now?"

Su Zimo said: "It's what the old lady meant."

Song Wenshu nodded thoughtfully.

Song Junjie's expression became even uglier. This clearly told Song Wenshu that his previous promise was nothing but empty talk, and that Su Zimo was the master of the house. Even if he wanted to treat Zhong Ming well, he could only say it nicely.

Zhong Yuanda, who had been silent all this time, said: "I, Zhong Yuanda, only have one daughter, Zhong Ming, and our family does not lack this little money. Don't say that Junjie brought the money here today, even if there is not one or two, my daughter is going to marry. I agree without saying a word, and I will prepare a generous dowry for her, so that she can get married in style."

Song Junjie hurriedly said happily: "Uncle really understands righteousness, this marriage was agreed by my cousin."

Zhong Ming rushed: "Who said I agreed, when my mother told my grandmother about it, I just didn't have time to object."

"This," Song Junjie said anxiously, "How can marriage be a trifling matter?"

Zhong Ming said: "Originally I wanted to marry you, but seeing my sister like this, let's forget about it, she is just a married couple, so if I marry you as a concubine, I will be treated even more badly."

"No, of course not." Song Junjie assured again and again, but Su Zimo couldn't say anything to appease Zhong Ming by divorcing his wife and strengthening his family, so he kept saying no.

Zhong Yuanda said: "Since Ming'er said she won't marry, let's forget about it."

"How can you forget it?" Song Junjie stood up awkwardly, "It's all agreed, if it wasn't because of something wrong with you, uncle, my cousin and I would have already married."

Zhong Yuanda sighed: "I'm afraid this is God's will."

Song Wenshu didn't say anything clearly about her face. Now that Zhong Yuanda personally rejected it, the matter is over, and he was relieved. If Song Junjie was persistent, it would mean that he was ignorant. This time, she had to be careful. Help my daughter choose a good husband.

However, since Song Junjie came here so far, how could he give up easily? He also expected such obstacles, and said with confidence: "My aunt and uncle are really joking. My cousin is young, so I can treat her as ignorant, uncle." But how can a person who runs a big business be so dishonest. Although my cousin’s marriage was only a verbal agreement, there were so many people present who could testify for us. If you want to retire the marriage, then the man should also retire, although my nephew doesn't know many people, but I do know a few officials and masters in Beijing, do you want my aunt and uncle to go back to Beijing with my nephew, and ask them to comment on this?"

Zhong Yuanda lowered his face, "Are you threatening me?"

Song Junjie hurriedly said: "My nephew doesn't dare, it's just that my nephew really likes Cousin Zhong Ming, and he will do it to my aunt and uncle."

Zhong Ming snorted, "You really like my family's silver, right?"

Song Junjie was caught in a shortcoming, his face flushed, and he said bravely: "My cousin really underestimates people, how can I be such a person, I can swear to God, I have no such intentions." After Zhong Ming married him, he would naturally Bringing the property here doesn't mean he coveted it intentionally, but this oath can be made.

Song Wenshu was afraid that the quarrel would be too stiff, so she hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "We are all a family. If there is anything we can't talk about properly, look at all of you blowing your beards and staring. Let Zimo see the joke, right?"

Su Zimo smiled and said: "No, if Ming'er marries, we are sisters, if not, we are still sisters." In a word, he put himself out of the matter.

Song Wenshu thought, if Ming'er had her composure and wit, she wouldn't make such a fuss as it is today.
