Jiayou fun things

Chapter 4

Bai Qiong and Bai Lu hurriedly said their goodbyes.

The father and daughter got on a beautifully decorated four-wheeled carriage in front of the Tianenhou Mansion.

Surrounded by a few horsemen, the carriage walked several dozen feet along Tianen Street in front of Tianenhou's mansion. Bai Qiong suddenly jumped up from his seat and kicked hard on the wall of the carriage.

"Rampant, presumptuous, pickled puppy, how dare he, how dare he?"

"One promise, one gold? One promise, one gold?"

"Puppy, you are not afraid of dying!"

Bai Qiong roared angrily, his face twisted, his eyes almost jumped out of his sockets: "Okay, okay, okay, shit, don't eat or drink fine for toasting, it's great!"

Bai Luan sat quietly by the side, twisting a silk handkerchief in her hands, and sighed softly with blurred eyes: "Father, really speaking, his talent and knowledge are also excellent."

With a faint sigh, Bai Lu murmured, "If it weren't for the fact that the grandfather of the Lu family died in battle, and the uncle of the Lu family was unreliable, his family situation was declining faster, and it would be... hey!"

With a gloomy face, Bai Qiong sat back in his seat.

He looked at his precious daughter and sneered sneeringly: "Talent, knowledge, are these things useful? Are they useful? Today's Da Yin is about family background and background."

"If his grandfather is still there, or if his father takes the post of his grandfather Yulin Nakaro. Gee!"

"However, right now, he can't count on the Duke of Lai's mansion."

"When his grandfather was alive, he had a relationship with Duke Lai's mansion. But when Marquis Tianen rose, his house was separated from Duke Lai's mansion with Marquis Tianen. "

"On the Marquis of Tianen's side, do you expect the Hu family, who can't wait to move all his belongings back to his mother's house, to use the resources of the Marquis' mansion on one of his collaterals?"

"Without the backing of the family, even if you are only eight buckets tall and learn to be rich, what if you worked hard to get a scholar in the imperial examinations, and were admitted to a scholar or a talented person? It's far better than a filial piety from an aristocratic family.

"Then Lu Ru's child, you are not a good match for you."

Bai Qiong restrained his anger, looked at his beautiful and spirited daughter, and smiled triumphantly: "In these years, the old man and your uncles have racked their brains to gain strength, support, and fame for you, what are you asking for? "

"In the future, even if you can't be a princess, why do you have to be the heir of a thousand-year-old family?"

Bai Lu twisted her handkerchief, her pretty face suddenly flushed.

Bai Qiong looked at his precious daughter with a smile: "For example, the Zhu Shizi who has a good relationship with you is very good."

Bai Qiong smiled happily.

The daughter who has been raised hard and is the only daughter of the three generations of the Bai family, naturally she has to sell it for a good price!
Bai Lu's face became even more rosy, and she shyly sneered at her father.

She stomped her feet hard, and then hesitantly asked Bai Qiong: "But, father, since he doesn't let go and has Mrs. Enhou's support that day, this marriage certificate is in his hands, after all, it is huge, huge, Hidden danger."

Speaking of the word 'hidden danger', Bai Lu's little face turned pale, Yin Fang bit her lip tightly, and she grabbed the handkerchief with both hands, almost tearing the handkerchief into two pieces.

"Our family is now well-known and well-known in the court. Not to mention my grandfather, father, and uncles, but to say that my daughter's current reputation will not be tarnished in the slightest!"

Bai Lu looked at Bai Qiong worriedly.

Lu Rui was holding the marriage certificate, and Bai Lu was suspected of 'selling goods'. If this matter spread out, it would be a huge stain.Those wealthy families, who would tolerate a stigmatized woman entering the door?
Bai Qiong flicked the hem of his robe, raised Erlang's legs, and put on a stance of 'strategizing' and 'having a plan'.

"Don't worry, good girl, your marriage is the future of the Bai family, the future of your grandfather, your father and me, and your uncles."

"You marry a good man, which is a solid first step that my Bai family has taken from a scholarly and noble family to an aristocratic and wealthy family!"

"Then, since the Lu family's children are not literate, it's no wonder that we don't pay attention to the friendship between the two families over the years."

Bai Qiong pouted his lips and gave a sneer, contemptuous smile, like a commander in command of a thousand troops, and waved his hand gently: "Little Huangkou child, ashes disappear in the blink of an eye, but that's all."

After a slight pause, Bai Qiong narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "It's tonight, just watch."

The carriage went away quickly, and finally, there was a sigh from Bai Qiong in the carriage.

"It's just that tonight's arrangement, after all, is inferior, it is inevitable that there will be some risks, leaving some hands behind."

"I hate that kid. Your father and I took my favor and asked Lu Jun to suppress and make things difficult for Lu Jun in the clan school, and ruin his reputation in the Lu clan, just to ask for a reasonable excuse for our family to break off the marriage."

"After all, he was born in the Jingyang Lu clan! There is no legitimate excuse, even if it is a descendant of the clan, it is not easy to bully."

"I never imagined that this ignorant puppy, how could he say things like 'a promise of gold'?"

Tianenhou Mansion, the reception hall.

Mrs. Hu looked at Lu Ru very earnestly, her just gloomy zombie face was now full of bright smiles, and she became more and more beautiful, as cute as a young girl.

Lu Yan sat upright on the seat of Bai Qiong just now, holding a new cup of tea, and looked at Madam Hu seriously.

"A gentleman promises a lot of money, this is absolutely true."

"His family wants to repent of their marriage. I can understand their thoughts. My family, Lu Lu, has declined. Now I'm just a broken boy. I'm not worthy of their girl. It's a fact."

"I don't live up to my expectations, and I was repented of my marriage. I admit it."

"The dragon matches the dragon, the phoenix matches the phoenix, and the mice in the gutter can only burrow in the ground. I understand this truth!"

"But repenting of marriage is repenting. If you want to talk nonsense with red mouth and white teeth, and empty gloves and white wolf, this is not right."

"I'm sorry for the friendship between the two old masters back then, and I'm sorry for the status of the old master Bai. Do you think this is the truth? Not to mention, our family name is Lu, the Lu from Jingyang Lu!"

Mrs. Hu nodded again and again, and clapped with a smile like a flower: "Isn't that the truth? I was fooled by that Bai Qiong just now. It's just two hundred, eh!"

Mrs. Hu coughed a few times and said hastily: "Brother Che is very reasonable, this is very reasonable, let's make sense, this is right. Let his Bai family be able to speak lotus flowers and have no money. , this marriage certificate will definitely not be returned to them."

Mrs. Hu solemnly promised Lu Yan: "Don't be afraid of his Bai family, with the Houfu to support you, no one can deceive my good son of the Lu family in this capital city!"

Lu Yan gave Mrs. Hu a deep look, put down the teacup in her hand, and stood up.

"A gentleman promises a thousand pieces of gold, this is what the ancient sages clearly marked the price."

Lu Ru bullied Mrs. Hu for not reading or learning. This 'clearly marked' or something was just fooling her.

However, Mrs. Hu loves hearing this!
"Now, Mr. Bai is a bachelor of Wenhua Pavilion, deputy head of the Imperial College, and a doctor of the third-rank court. He has three jobs, one job and one gentleman, so I won't give this marriage certificate without three thousand gold. "

"This is Mr. Bai's side. This marriage book was drafted by the two old men. When my ancestor was alive, his real military position was Yulin Zhonglang, who was awarded the commander of Huiyun and the assistant of scattered cavalry. The same position is a gentleman. , this is another three thousand gold."

"Three three get six, this marriage certificate, without six thousand gold, they will never get it back!"

Mrs. Hu laughed out loud: "This is very appropriate and reasonable, and no one can be picky. Whoever dares to be picky, I will slap him with my aunt!"

Six thousand gold.

Dayin gold is expensive, one tael of gold can be exchanged for 20 taels of silver, and one tael of silver can be exchanged for money. According to the quality of copper coins, the money of a coin is roughly between [-] and [-].

Today, Dayin is rich in products. A pound of good white rice is only three or five cents. The purchasing power of consistent money is extremely considerable.

Six thousand gold is a huge sum of money.

Just now, Lu Lu just casually reported this price to Baiqiong's father and daughter, and "Mrs. Hu upholds justice", forcibly forced the father and daughter to flee in embarrassment!
Lu Tong flicked his sleeves, although his clothes were rather shabby, but with his handsome appearance and burly body, this action had an indescribable dashing style, and the maids in the reception hall were bursting with excitement. Eyes light up.

"Then, Auntie, it's up to you to decide this matter."

Lu Yan bowed to Madam Hu with a harmless smile on his face.

"The marriage certificate is in the hands of the little nephew. If the Bai family comes to the door again to make noise, you can reply to them with 'pay with one hand and deliver with one hand'."

"My little nephew is young, so it's not a good thing to keep some gold and silver in your hands."

"Men become bad when they have money, not to mention that my little nephew doesn't have any parents and elders to watch. If I go to places like the brothel, the casino, the flower boat, wouldn't it really be bad?"

"So, if the six thousand gold is really in hand, the little nephew will be bold, and Aunt Lao will help you to take care of it!"

After Mrs. Hu heard Lu Yan's words, her face was flushed for a while, her eyes were glowing with water, and she looked at Lu Yan with incomparable enthusiasm. She only felt that this nephew was actually more pleasing and cute than her own son!
She hurriedly said, "Isn't that the truth? Men can't have too much money!"

"Don't worry, Auntie is in charge of you, and no one can bully you! If the gold is in hand, Auntie will help you save it, and it will definitely help you keep it properly, and it must be foolproof!"

Madam Hu was so excited that her whole body was trembling slightly.

Six thousand gold!

For this money, Mrs. Hu has nothing she can't do or dare not do!
She swallowed hard, and beckoned to the confidant maid beside her, "You can't see something, didn't you see that Brother Chen's clothes are thin? Go, go to the warehouse and pick up ten, no, twenty. Send the money to Brother Qi."

"Further, take another piece, no, two pieces of fine satin, and make two new clothes for Brother Che!"

"Go, go!"

"Call the housekeeper, this year's New Year's gifts for Brother Qi will be doubled on the share of ordinary clansmen!"

"Hey, hey, on the back street of Hou's Mansion, send a few more servants to watch day and night, and put a few more watch dogs!"

"You can't let the thief enter Brother Che's yard!"

Lu Rui put his hands in his sleeves and walked out Shi Shiran.

He walked all the way, and he could still hear Mrs. Hu in the reception hall behind, muttering 'six thousand gold', 'six thousand gold' and so on.

The Marquis of Tianen Mansion where Lu Ru entered through the back door.

At this moment, he walked out of Tianenhou Mansion through the front door.

Walking down the steps in front of the Tianenhou Mansion, standing on the square in front of the door that was swept clean, looking up at the sky covered with red clouds, Lu Ru murmured to himself.

"Bribery? I don't care."

"If you speak to me upright, I will naturally be at peace and be kind to others."

"However, you slandered and suppressed me for four years. I have a small mind, and you must pay the price!"

"You are cunning, the Hu clan is savage, frightening, and swallowing up wolves. Let me watch a good show."
