The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Chapter 1817: bride price

Too many young ladies in the capital envy my cousin, and the fourth uncle has made a decision for Gu Sheng, and they are all laughing at the cousin's marriage behind their backs, waiting to see Gu Sheng's dowry!

Minghui said playfully: "Gu Sheng is not poor."

In the Hanlin Academy, Gu Sheng took advantage of the rest time, thinking about what was still missing. He started preparing the dowry a few years ago, and took out all the money for his eldest brother. own little home.

Since Lord Zhou clearly identified him as his son-in-law, he has never sold his paintings, even if someone asked him for a high price. The business income can also make up a dowry gift of 10,000 taels.

Gu Sheng frowned, but unfortunately he couldn't get antique calligraphy and paintings, and the dowry was still a bit ugly, and the more he thought about it, the tighter his brows became.

Changzhi took the job of compiling a book today, and just selected the manpower, thinking that Gu Sheng came to find him specially.

Gu Sheng raised his head and hurriedly stood up, "Sir."

Changzhi sat down and said his intention, "I didn't want to interfere in your future. Today, I got an assignment to compile a book. Don't underestimate the book. I see that the above meaning has a big move, so I want to ask if you will continue to stay. Hanlin Academy?"

Gu Sheng hurriedly greeted him, "Thank you, Sir, for considering me. I have already agreed with the future concubine, and he has already helped me operate in private."

It was a pity for Changzhi to hear the secret message, and then he was relieved that he had a personal opportunity, "If that's the case, you can pretend that I didn't say it."

Gu Sheng, "Thank you sir for thinking about me."

Changzhi got up and went back very busy, but Gu Sheng didn't feel it was a pity, he had plans for his future.

When it was time to go to the yamen, Gu Sheng went out to meet Wu Shangheng, his consort, "Why are you here?"

Wu Shangheng motioned to get on the carriage, but Gu Sheng almost had no place to sit in the carriage. Seeing that there were a lot of boxes in the carriage, "What did you buy?"

Wu Shangheng pointed at the box, "I took it out and exchanged it with you."

Gu Sheng opened the box suspiciously. The long box was filled with ancient paintings, and the other boxes were paired ornaments. He trained his eyesight along with Wu Shangheng, and was very clear about the value of these things, "I know you want to help me, but I can't. Taking advantage of you, you have already helped me a lot."

Wu Shangheng said: "You and I are friends, how can you take advantage of it? I think your paintings are valuable for collection. In the future, I may not be able to get a lot of money. Now that I have replaced all the paintings in your hands, I feel that I am taking advantage of it. cheap."

He helped his friends on the one hand, and his words didn't add to the water, not to mention that he likes someone being slapped in the face. They don't want to see a dowry joke, but he wants to see who is the joke.

Gu Sheng saw the ceremony, "I know your good intentions in my heart. If I postpone it any longer, it will be hypocritical. In the future, you can tell me that I don't want a penny."

Wu Shangheng laughed, "I took a big advantage this time."

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day before the entrance of the spring. Notify the referee in the newspaper.

The new rules were also posted outside the examination room. The people who were not allowed to bring food were approved by the referees. Most of the referees were not able to take care of themselves. The food for reference was either cold and hard cakes or greasy snacks. There's still plenty of time left to rest.

Today, the masters of Zhouhou Mansion are all at home. In the past, there was not such a big movement at home, and the married daughters also came back.

Zhou Shuren specially asked for a day and a half of leave for his old son Chun Wei, and planned to send his son to the examination room in person tomorrow.

Changzhi is in his thirties, but he still can't help but feel sour. The old son and grandson are indeed the lifeblood. Look at the concerned appearance of the old man!

Zhou Shuren not only cared about his son, but also personally checked the supplies brought into the examination room, no less than three times.

Changzhong looked at the people in the room, the smile on his face had not changed, and he patiently responded to everyone's concern, and even advised not to worry about him.

Mingjing sat in the corner and pulled her brother's sleeve, "Brother, little uncle is too powerful."

Instead, he had to be afraid before the exam, and when he thought about the exam questions his uncle had done, his back felt cold.

Minghui also admired it, "You don't even think about who taught the uncle."

Mingjing swallowed. Uncle Wu Ming is also a great man. Who doesn't know Mr. Wu from the grassland, and then he snickered. In this way, his backers are not only many, but also powerful. Not only can the young master walk sideways, but also his descendants in the future!

Minghui knocked his brother on the head, "It's all about you!"

Mingjing looked up and laughed dryly, "When I don't exist."

Chang Zhong burst out laughing, and Ming Jing was the most happy among his nephews, and beckoned, "Come and sit down."

Mingjing didn't want to go, and was pushed out by her brother. She was kicked by her father after squeezing. She covered her **** and frowned, "It hurts."

Boss Zhou was angry, and today this kid joins in the fun, "It's right to hurt."

Zhulan glared at her and motioned for Mingjing to come and sit~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This also makes Mingjing relaxed, how old is Mingjing, you still don't know how to save face for the children! "

Zhou Shuren's heart is bright and quiet and he is fat again, "It's true that he is wide-hearted and fat."

Mingjing wanted to shrink her stomach, but her stomach was still bulging.

Li said speechlessly: "Don't shrink, your belly is solid."

With a coax, everyone in the room laughed out loud, Ming Jing's ears turned red, and then she laughed because his atmosphere was relaxed.

In the evening, the whole family had a reunion dinner, and when the main courtyard was quiet, Zhulan and her husband took a shower, and Shuren didn't want to rest. Then Zhulan saw Shuren approve the cape, "Where are you going?"

Shuren said, "I'll go see my son."

Zhulan also wanted to go and have a look, and then thought for a while, "Go ahead."

Shuren closed the cloak and pushed the door out. Zhulan shook her head with a laugh. She didn't see her son being nervous, but her husband was even more nervous.

In Changzhong's yard, the night watchman saw the lantern, and after a closer look, it turned out to be Lord Hou.

Zhou Shuren looked at the closed courtyard door, "Can you rest now, Young Master?"

The servant replied in a low voice, "The lights have been turned off to rest."

Their servants all admired their son, thinking that the son would be nervous and couldn't fall asleep, but he thought too much, and the son turned off the lights and rested when the time came.

Zhou Shuren stood at the door, pondered for a moment and said, "Open the door carefully."

The servant opened the door after hearing this. Zhou Shuren carried the lantern in without anyone following him. The old woman who was watching the night in her son's bedroom was busy opening the door.

Because the lanterns were bright in the room, Zhou Shuren cautiously walked to the window, afraid that his son would not be standing by the bedside.

Changzhong has always slept well at home, or deep sleep. I really didn't know his father came to see him.
