The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 2008

[Chapter 2008 Qiyou Fanwai (84)]

When Qiyou returned home, he called Han Jingjing over and asked her to try to set the wedding date in the first half of next year.

Han Jingjing looked confused: “Father, Mrs. Chen means that she will not marry until Mu Qing turns seventeen. She means that the wedding date will be set in May of the following year.” Mrs. Shu wanted to wait until her daughter was seventeen. Birthday, get married again.

Qiyou said Yun Qing’s words briefly: “We are not unreasonable people. You told her that this is what the old man in the family meant. I hope you can understand.”

Knowing what Yun Qing meant, Han Jingjing nodded immediately and said, “Okay, I’ll go to Chen’s house in two days.” Po Ge’er performed well in Tongcheng, which greatly pleased Han Jingjing. So to the two elders, she should not be more grateful. She will try her best to fulfill this wish.

The next day, Han Jingjing posted a post, and then went to the Chen family to negotiate a wedding date with the Shu family.

Han Jingjing didn’t beat around the bush, she said directly: “The ancestors of the family are getting older, so I hope that the eldest son, Brother Po, can get married sooner, and I also ask my mother to be considerate.”

Mrs. Chen is not an unreasonable person. After negotiation between the two, the wedding date was set at the end of October next year.

After the discussion was over, Han Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief. She is also reluctant to set the wedding date in March next year, because Yun Yan is getting married at the end of this year. This newly married daughter turned her head and arranged her son’s marriage, and she had to be exhausted.

Mrs. Chen sent Han Jingjing away, and went to the upper court to tell the old lady Cui.

Cui shi frowned and said, “I didn’t say that the wedding date would be in the first half of the next year, so why did I go back on my word?” Because Han Jingjing was very strong in front of her, she became more and more disgusted with this marriage.

Mrs. Chen said with a sullen face: “The other three houses have great-grandchildren, and the only one left is King You. The two old sages want their descendants to marry earlier, and they can also hold the great-grandson.”

Cui Shi was speechless. After all, it was the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager. People are willing to discuss with you, that is to give you face. Otherwise, they would not dare to object to a single order.

“How are you preparing for Mu Qing’s dowry?” Because this marriage was not to her liking, she didn’t make any extra allowance except for the five thousand taels allocated by the palace.

Shu said, “This property shop is not easy to buy. My daughter-in-law is going to give her all the property under my name.”

When Cui Shi heard this, his face darkened: “You gave all the land to Mu Qing, what will Zhang’er do in the future?”

Shu shi lowered her head and said, “Mu Qing is going to marry into the You Wang Mansion, and she is also the eldest daughter-in-law. If the dowry is too small, her husband’s family and future sisters-in-law will look down on her.” Only one hundred and eight lifts. So now, the most dowry for married women in the capital is this number.

“How much dowry are you going to prepare for Mu Qing?” Hearing Shu said that he was going to give Chen Muqing a dowry of 108, Cui almost exploded: “Are you trying to evacuate the Chen family?”

The Chen family used to be the Hou residence, and the Chen family had never had a prodigal son. The family has also accumulated a lot of wealth. Later, when the dynasty was changed, the Chen family was not affected, and the family wealth was preserved. And Chen Ran is in a high position, and even if he is not corrupt, he has saved a lot of money. However, Chen Ran and Yu Xixian have always been frugal. Except for their eldest son, the rest of the family did not know that the family had huge wealth.

Chen Zhonghe was the eldest son. When the old grandpa Chen passed away, he should have told him about it. But Mrs. Chen knew that he was filial and filial, and told him that Mrs. Cui also knew. And Cui’s short-sighted and fond of his younger son, to know that these family wealth will definitely not be guaranteed. So he left a letter, and his confidant waited for his eldest grandson, Chen Huanzhang, to hand it over to him when he was twenty years old.

Shu said, “Daughter-in-law doesn’t dare, daughter-in-law is just going to give Mu Qing the dowry.” Gongzhong couldn’t make money, so she had to make up for it. Otherwise, let Chen Muqing marry with a meager dowry, and the door will be a dwarf.

In fact, there are 36 dowries for Prince You’s Mansion, and the Chen family only needs to prepare 72 for the dowry of 108.

After hearing this, Cui Shi became more and more disgusted with Shu Shi: “You gave all the dowry to Mu Qing, what about Zhang’er?

“Zhang’er is a man, so he can rely on himself to accumulate his family’s wealth in the future.” And girl, if her husband’s family is not good, then the dowry is the last resort.

Cui was so angry that a mouthful of blood came out. However, Cui’s dowry can be freely controlled by her, and she can’t scold if she wants to.

“Muqing is married to the palace. In special circumstances, I will ask the public to pay another 3,000 taels. In addition, I will subsidize another 2,000 taels of silver.” If most of Chen Muqing’s dowry was subsidized by the Shu family, the news spread to the Chen family. All face must be lost.

Mrs. Chen’s face did not show a hint of joy, but said lightly, “Thank you, mother.”

If she is the second daughter-in-law or the third daughter-in-law now, she must be moved with such a large sum of money. So seeing Mrs. Chen’s indifferent face, Mrs. Cui felt very uncomfortable: “Go down!”

When Mrs. Chen got up, Mrs. Cui said again: “This money can be saved a little bit, don’t let it run out of money later.”

“Yes.”

Mrs. Cui had seen Mrs. Chen scolding like this before, but no matter how she scolded Mrs. Chen before, she was a dead face. The more he scolded, the more angry he became, so that he once fell ill with anger. After being warned by the doctor, Mrs. Cui took her life to stop scolding Mrs. Chen.

But when Chen Zhonghe came back in the evening, she scolded Chen Zhonghe again. Chen Zhonghe not only didn’t get angry, but comforted her for a long time before she was relieved.

Shu Shi was in the room to settle accounts, and when he heard Chen Zhonghe’s coming, his face did not fluctuate at all. Since she gave up on Chen Zhonghe, it didn’t matter whether Chen Zhonghe came to the main hospital or not.

Every time Chen Zhonghe looked at his indifferent wife, he always felt powerless. He didn’t know why the husband and wife came to this point.

Mrs. Chen asked, “Is this time, Master, for Mu Qing’s dowry? Master, Mu Qing is going to marry into the palace. If the dowry is too small, he will be looked down upon.”

Chen Zhonghe said, “Listen to my mother, are you going to give all the dowry to Mu Qing?” Gongzhong married a daughter according to the rules. His mother gave three thousand more, which was already breaking the rules.

“Yes. The eldest daughter-in-law of Prince Rui’s Mansion and Prince Xuan’s Mansion is a dowry of 108. My family, Mu Qing, can’t be behind them.

Hearing this, Chen Zhonghe couldn’t help but say, “If you hadn’t recklessly promised me this marriage behind your mother’s back, you wouldn’t have to be embarrassed for a dowry now.”

Mrs. Chen said indifferently: “I would rather give the dowry to Mu Qing than to use her dowry to supplement her husband’s family in the future.” You Wang’s mansion is rich and simple, and her daughter’s dowry can always be held in her hand. But if she were to marry into the Cui family or the Mo family, it might be impossible.

The reason why he thinks like this is because the Cui family has made a scandal of stealing his daughter-in-law’s dowry.

“How can you say such a thing. Husband and wife are one, and they should support each other in times of difficulty.”

Mrs. Chen sneered: “My pampered daughter should be married to her husband’s family to enjoy happiness, not to be a cow and a horse. You think Mo Yunfan is good, but I think he is a piece of shit.”

She knew that with Chen Zhonghe’s cautious temperament, she would not promise Mo Yunfan anything until she and Cui Shi had gotten through it. But even if he didn’t make a promise, I believe Mo Yunfan knew that he meant it. If it is strong and strong, the elder sister will definitely not turn her head and propose to the younger sister.

Before, Mrs. Chen thought that Mo Yunfan’s mother was above the sky, and the Mo family was too poor, so she did not agree with this marriage. But when the matter of Chen Mudan happened, she was glad that she immediately decided on Mu Qing’s marriage. As far as Mo Yunfan’s character is concerned, even if it is not a white-eyed wolf, it is not much better.

Chen Zhonghe was also angry: “How can you say such a thing? Yun Fan’s family is not good, but there is an old saying, don’t bully the poor. I believe that sooner or later, he will come out.”

Mrs. Chen sneered: “Look! Before he gets ahead, he will definitely let Mu Dan use the dowry to supplement him and the Mo family. Once he gets ahead, he won’t take Mu Dan seriously.”

Chen Zhonghe said angrily, “Why do you always think about people so badly?”

Husband and wife for so many years, how can Mrs. Chen not know that as long as Chen Zhonghe approves, he will maintain it to the end. Therefore, Mrs. Chen was too lazy to tell him any more.

Chen Zhonghe was a little helpless, he took out a bank note from his sleeve and gave it to her: “If you give all your dowry to Mu Qing, Zhang Er won’t mind, but the future daughter-in-law is likely to have an idea. So, keep half of it. Give it to Zhang’er!”

Seeing the huge three words ‘10,000 taels’ on the silver note, Mrs. Chen showed a rare smile on her face: “Okay.” With this money, plus the money given by the old lady, Mu Qing’s dowry has landed.

After so many years of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she is well aware of Cui’s weakness. In Cui’s heart, there is nothing more important than the Chen family’s reputation. She deliberately told Cui Shi that she would give all the dowry to Chen Muqing, just to force Cui Shi to take the money.

Since the couple fell out, Chen Zhonghe seldom saw Shu’s smile. Seeing her laugh now has mixed flavors.

When Yun Qing heard that Brother Po’er’s wedding was scheduled for October 26 next year, he muttered, “I don’t know if I was still there at that time.”

Oak Xi glared at him and said, “If you have something to say, don’t scare people with death.”

Yun Qing turned his head and ignored Yuxi. It looks like a child.

Cough, the older I get, the more I live.

Yuxi patiently said: “Our children are already very filial, you go to see other people’s homes, who can rely on you in everything like Qihao and the others. Old man, it’s enough to stop, make trouble too much and be careful of children. ignore you.”

Yun Qing snorted and said, “I am their father. If they dare not be filial to me, I will break their legs.”

Yuxi chuckled lightly: “And breaking their legs, when you were young, you would walk fast. Now you have old arms and old legs, and you have to be supported when you walk.”

Zaozao happened to hear this at the door, walked in and said with a smile, “Dad, whose leg are you trying to break. Tell me, I’ll break his leg for you.”

Yuxi laughed and scolded, “Your father was spoiled by you, and it’s getting harder and harder to serve him now.”
