The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 2239
[Chapter 2239 Tie Kui Fanwai (163)]
Brother Zhuang was overjoyed when he heard that the Gao family had agreed to the marriage. He had prepared for the worst, but he didn’t expect it to happen.
Ning Yuanhang looked at him being a little silly with joy, and said with a smile: “Brother, look at how many people as old as you are in the capital with a fortune? You can’t count them all with one slap. The Gao family knows that, Why would you refuse a kiss?”
Although he is the prince who would rather be in the back palace, the money at his disposal is pitiful. Unlike Brother Zhuang, who holds such a large fortune after getting married.
Think about it, he is a little envious.
Ning Yuanhang said hilariously, “Brother, after you get married, give your brother some money to spend!”
Brother Zhuang refused without hesitation: “No. You can’t borrow money casually, unless you use it for serious business.” Having said that, if you want to use money for serious business, your uncle and aunt will definitely give it, you don’t need to look for him borrow.
Ning Yuanhang sighed and said, “Cough, it’s said that the brothers who fight tigers go to battle with their father and son. Big brother, you can’t be trusted! It’s because I’m so heartless towards you.”
Brother Zhuang looked at him and said with a smile, “Don’t be rude, let’s go practice!” This time, he must be admitted to the Qianwei Camp, and he will earn face for himself and the third girl of the Gao family.
“Okay, let’s go practice.” In fact, he was also joking, how could he really ask Brother Zhuang to borrow money. At most, I knocked Brother Zhuang for a few meals.
In March, Brother Zhuang passed the assessment of Qianweiying. After resting for two days, I packed up and went to Qianwei Camp.
By April, the strong brother will be removed from filial piety.
Two days after the filial piety, Zeng Chenfu invited the official media to go to the Gao family to propose marriage. Because the two families had already made an agreement in secret, the Gao family agreed to the marriage very readily.
After the two exchanged Geng Tie, Zeng Chenfu began to prepare for the dowry.
Ning Hai gave Zeng Chenfu 10,000 taels of silver and said, “You can use this money to buy things first, and then tell me if it’s less.”
Zeng Chenfu said, “Father, the eldest uncle should pay for the betrothal gift of Zhuang brother?” Anyway, in the future, the property in Fang Hui’s hands will not be available to Brother Zhuang. Therefore, he has to pay for the cost of marriage. Otherwise, it would also be cheaper for the children that Tang shi had with her.
This wedding also depends on what specifications are planned. If it is a big deal, the cost is not low. Like the eldest son of the British government, he was given 30,000 taels of silver just for the appointment. Brother Zhuang can’t be compared with the Prince of England, but the dowry plus the cost of marriage must exceed 10,000 taels of silver.
Ning Hai nodded and said, “I have already written to him, and I believe that the money will be sent soon.” The family was separated, and the old man couldn’t ask him to pay when he got married. As for Brother Zhuang’s money, keep it for the young couple.
Zeng Chenfu nodded, then took out a list and said, “Dad, this is the dowry list, let’s see what else needs to be added.” She drafted this dowry list after careful consideration.
Ning Hai didn’t even look at the list, he said, “You have always handled things properly, I have nothing to worry about.”
A few days later, Fang Hui received a letter from Ning Hai. After reading the letter, Fang Hui looked a little sad. His son is about to get engaged. He doesn’t even know whether the second master of the Gao family is round or flat, let alone what the character of the Gao family girl looks like.
Seeing that his expression was not very good, Mrs Tang asked, “Husband, what’s the matter? But what’s going on in the army?”
Fang Hui shook his head and said, “There is nothing wrong with the army.” In September last year, the eldest princess led the troops to severely injure the Donghu people. There will be no major wars in the border town in the next twenty years.
Seeing that he didn’t say anything, Mrs Tang changed the topic: “Husband, Mrs. Lin heard that the eldest young master was admitted to the Qianwei Camp, and she wanted to betroth the eldest daughter to the eldest young master.” Being admitted to the Qianwei Camp indicates that this child will have a future in the future. Not bad.
After the news spread, some wives and wives with school-age girls at home were moved. This Mrs. Lin’s husband is a thousand households in the army. This Lin Qianhu came from the bottom and has no foundation.
If Zeng Chenfu knew the roots of the Lin family, he would have known what the Tang family was up to. Asking Brother Zhuang to marry a girl from the Lin family would not help him in his career.
Fang Hui shook his head and said, “No need, Dad has already given Zhuang Xiang a good opinion of others. The Geng Tie has been exchanged, and the dowry is left.”
Mrs Tang’s heart skipped a beat, and then said with a smile, “It’s a good thing, but I don’t know who the girl is?” She had thought about putting someone next to Brother Zhuang, but she was afraid of causing Ning Hai to suspect and eventually dismissed the idea. As for bribing the people around Brother Zhuang, she didn’t even have the idea.
Brother Zhuang’s servants and entourages are all descendants of the generals of the Marquis of Anyang. And the maids serving by her side were also carefully selected by Zeng Chenfu. These people cannot be bought with money.
Fang Hui said, “It’s the third girl from Uncle Yong’s House. Dad said that girl is smart and capable, and she is also a good housekeeper. Brother Zhuang has also met and is very satisfied with the girl from the Gao family. So he made the decision and decided this matter. down.”
Tang Shi’s heart almost jumped to her throat, but she quickly calmed down: “I remember Princess Rui, she seems to be a girl from Yongyi Bo’s Mansion?”
Fang Hui didn’t think much, nodded and said, “Well, Princess Rui is the only daughter of Uncle Yongyi’s mansion. Uncle Yongyi’s two sons both hold important positions in the army. Most of the children of the Gao family serve in the army. It will be very helpful for Brother Zhuang’s future.” Having said this, Fang Hui’s heart relaxed instantly. His father estimated that it was also based on this consideration that he would help Brother Zhuang choose a girl from the Gao family.
With a worried look on his face, Mrs Tang said, “I heard that this noble girl has a bad temper. I don’t know how this girl is tempered?” She didn’t want someone to disrupt her life at all, so she wanted Brother Zhuang to marry a girl of average family background who was gentle and talkative.
The so-called good talk is actually a weak temper. In this way, she can also hold each other.
But he didn’t want to, Ning Hai didn’t even worry about Ma Shi, how could she let her interfere in Brother Zhuang’s marriage.
Fang Hui said with a smile, “Don’t worry about this, the girl in my father’s image must be outstanding in every way.” This girl from the Gao family must be outstanding in every way, otherwise she wouldn’t be in his father’s eyes. He knew that Ning Hai had high eyesight.
Although I don’t want Brother Zhuang to marry a noble girl, but Geng Tie has been exchanged, this marriage can’t be changed anymore.
Mrs Tang said very thoughtfully: “It will cost a lot to buy the dowry, husband, we can’t let the prince and the prince’s wife contribute and pay.”
Fang Hui felt that Mr. Tang was very caring, and said with a smile, “I have already asked Ah Qiang to send a silver note.”
Mr. Tang added: “Husband, send more to the past, you can’t let the prince and the others make up for it.”
“Given 12,000 taels of silver, it should be enough to buy the dowry. As for the cost of getting married, I will pay extra at that time.” Brother Zhuang is his eldest son, and the wedding will naturally be lively and lively. .
Thinking that Brother Zhuang is still living in the Marquis of Anyang, Fang Hui felt that he had to make arrangements. It doesn’t matter if you live in the Hou Mansion of Anyang, but now that the family is separated, the marriage cannot be done in the Hou Mansion.
Tang Shi’s face changed slightly. The dowry is only 12,000 taels, plus the money for the wine is 20,000. Although the family is relatively thick, this is also too much.
But no matter how painful she was, she didn’t dare to say anything against it. Not because he was afraid of Ning Hai, but because he was worried about Fang Hui thinking too much. After all, Brother Zhuang is the eldest son, and because of Ma’s affairs, he feels guilty, so Fang Hui will give so much money. If she objected, Fang Hui would definitely not be happy.
Thinking of Ma’s matter, Tang’s heart sank suddenly.
The next day Fang Hui went to the army, and the Tang family sent everyone out, leaving Shi Cui alone.
Shi Cui asked, “Grandma, what’s the matter?”
Mrs Tang pursed her lips and asked, “Does it have anything to do with you when the eldest grandmother passed away?” She was pregnant before, and she was too busy to think about it when she was busy raising a baby. But after giving birth, when I think about it again, I always feel that Shi Cui was in a wrong state during that time.
Although she had some doubts, she kept it in her heart and didn’t ask. But Brother Zhuang’s marriage gave her a sense of crisis. Not only Ning Hai, but even Zeng Chenfu didn’t like her. The girl they chose was definitely not good. Therefore, this matter must be investigated clearly. Shi Cuizhen had poisoned Ma, so this hidden danger had to be eliminated before the Gao girl entered the door.
Shi Cui’s legs softened and she knelt on the ground.
What is still unclear now, Mrs Tang shouted angrily: “You are so bold, you dare to do such evil things behind my back.” Fortunately, her husband believed that he hadn’t pursued it, otherwise it would be found out that it was Shi Cui’s murderous hand. , no one believes she is innocent. At that time, not only will she die without a place to be buried, but several children will be implicated.
Shi Cui didn’t even dare to cry loudly: “Grandma, I, I just want her to become weak, and then lead the eldest young master back to Tongcheng. In this way, the eldest young master can’t threaten you and the second young master in the future. Who can think of her It’s useless, just take a few pills and go.”
Mr. Tang couldn’t help but slap Shi Cui angrily: “You fool, you dare to make an opinion on such a big thing.” Mr. Ma is gone, and now there is nothing that can restrain Brother Zhuang.
Shi Cui knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
She dared to do such a thing, how could she still tolerate Shi Cui. He comforted her on the face, but moved his hands and feet secretly. Not long after, Shi Cui contracted a strange disease and died.
Because it has been more than two years since Ma’s death, no one suspected that Shi Cui’s death had something to do with Tang’s.
The dowry gifts that the Ning family sent to the Gao family filled the yard of the second lady of the high school.
The second lady of the high school looked at it and smiled. The more betrothal gifts the man gives, the more attention he pays to the girl. This time, the Ning family gave Thirty-Six a betrothal gift, which greatly exceeded her expectations.
The eldest lady of the Gao family looked a little pantothenic, but her face did not show: “Mrs. Shizi is really generous!” Her eldest son-in-law only gave Twenty-Four a betrothal gift that day.
The second lady of the high school said with a smile, “The uncle of the Ning family and the prince have long since separated, and the prince’s wife just bought these dowry gifts on his behalf.” She has received it, but it can’t be thought that these dowry gifts were paid by Ning Zhan and Zeng Chenfu. arranged.
The eldest lady was a little surprised: “Really?” He thought that the uncle of the Ning family favored the children from the side room and the concubines, and didn’t pay attention to the eldest son!
Mrs. Gao Er smiled and said, “Of course it’s true. Even if the husband and wife are generous, this is not a small amount, how can they take such a big advantage.”
That’s right, it makes sense.
The eldest lady smiled and said, “It seems that we all blame the uncle of the Ning family.”
In fact, the second wife of the senior high school did not know whether Fang Hui or Brother Zhuang paid the dowry money: “It’s his own son, how can it not hurt.” She didn’t want to talk about the fact that Brother Zhuang got half of the family business, so as not to draw pictures trouble.
