Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 67, Dowry List

One against two?
Yes or no.

Song Han wanted to beat two of them, Qi Yue only wanted to beat He Ning, He Ning was outnumbered, and he was beaten the worst.

When he sat down panting heavily, Qi Yue felt sad: "What kind of luck is this for me? If I don't have a marriage and still deduct the monthly money, can I still win this autumn?"

He Ning grinned with bruises on his face: "Wake up, you haven't been deducted monthly money yet, but I was beaten hard."

"If you go back with such a face, your parents and seniors will come to my house, and the incident will happen, and my monthly payment will be gone. Alas, what kind of luck is this? I will have my monthly payment deducted even if I have no marriage." Qi Yue walked away dejectedly. .

Song Han leaned on the wall and stood up: "I'm leaving too. Sister Xiu is engaged, and I'm not married anymore. Oh, what kind of luck is this?"

He Ning glared: "You are an uncle, why do you still want to marry us?"

"During the Chinese New Year, I begged my mother to help me order Miss Xiu first. My mother went to the Yuan family to pay New Year's greetings. When she came back, she told me that she had made an agreement with the old man of the Yuan family. Under the old man's family, I became his nephew, this is not a serious seniority, you can not keep it, let me wait for the end of the autumn. As a result, my marriage is gone, how can there be any reason for this?"

Song Han shook his head and sighed, walked forward, took a step out, turned around and gritted his fists: "Brother Ning! Why do you dare to think about sister Xiu when you order my green bamboo?"

"Do you dare to say that you will get married in the future, but you can forget sister Xiu in your heart?" He Ning retorted.

Song Han's fist stopped, and he retracted it disheveledly. When he lifted it up again, he offered his whole arm: "Forget it, we didn't even think about it. Come on Brother Ning, let me help you, and go to the drugstore at the street corner to ask for some." Apply medicinal wine, maybe the swelling and bruises will fade before going home. Brother Yue has a higher ranking than you in school, and after Qiu Wei, he can’t find a good girl? The green bamboo didn’t say in advance that it was his, so it’s definitely wrong for him to beat someone. If you can get well quickly, brother Yue won't be deducted monthly money, he is just as pitiful as me."

The scars of bruises, after applying the medicinal wine, the bruises dispersed, He Ning appeared in front of his parents, his forehead was red and swollen and shiny, as if it was about to fester at any time, and the blue and ferocious at the corners of his mouth looked like painted ghost patterns, lifelike.

Therefore, Qi Yue was deducted the monthly money and was beaten again.

Yanyan was both angry and funny, and asked the little girl to pass a message to Yuan Xiu and Lvzhu. When Yuan Xiu received the message, she was sitting by candlelight looking at her dowry list.

Under the advice of Bachelor Wang Zhuyu, the old master Yuan didn't persuade Yuanxiu to think about it afterwards, but today the betrothal gift was finally counted and placed in the newly vacated warehouse, and the betrothal gift list was given to Yuanxiu.

Fearing that Yuanxiu would lose his temper, or be in a bad mood, or be shy, Zhen Shi packed up the dowry.When the gift list was delivered, Mrs. Zhen smiled and said: "The old lady said that the dowry will be used as the dowry for Sister Xiu. Look carefully, the family will prepare the dowry for you. If there is anything missing, tell Second Aunt."

With this sentence in place, Yuan Xiu looked at the gift list openly.After receiving Yanyan's message, she smiled and continued to swipe through the gift list with admiring eyes.

Won Soo, who still had doubts about the marriage in her heart, was shocked when she saw the dowry list for the first time.

Sure enough, she is a girl from a small family, and Xinji is a small place.

In the past, the girls also said that Xinji is a small place, we are girls from a small family, but they were full of pride when they said it, what happened to the girls from a small family?We read, we are literate, and we love this small place called Xinji.

A betrothal gift list made Yuanxiu deeply realize that Xinji is really a small place, and even thought in a trance, is this a real betrothal gift list?
She didn't arrange a betrothal gift, and the housekeeper could just sit in the room, and she didn't feel any shock to the real thing. The shock started completely from the gift list.

And there are two people in this room who have seen the real thing and are full of admiration in front of the thick gift list. Mrs. Xu, who was holding the banana fan, forgot to shake the fan, stopped breathing, and stared fiercely at Yuanxiu on the gift list. Sliding fingers, this posture will kill people, so after a while, Mrs. Xu took a long and sharp breath, held her breath again and stared at Li Dan.

The little autumn grass girl next to her has a pious and pious face. It seems that what she is looking at is not the gift list, but the statues worshiped by thousands of families during the Chinese New Year.

Another maid of Yuanxiu, Meihua, was about to get married, and she was not here tonight. During Chinese New Year, Mrs. Xu told the old lady that the girl needed another girl. After Yuanxiu got engaged, the nanny mentioned it again. Ren Yazi asked Yuan Lian to meet Ren Yazi in Sanbao County, and said that the Yuan family wanted to buy someone.

One master and two servants, their eyes were focused on the big red dowry list, one who could read and two who could not read, both of them were paying attention.

What can the illiterate see?

Xu and Qiucao looked at it, recalling the big boxes and small boxes they saw when they took the time to help put the goods into storage, recalling them over and over again in their minds.

What are there?

1 taels of silver and 1000 taels of gold.

Used: [-] boxes of rouge: peony rouge, rose rouge, jasmine rouge. Half of the rouges are named Yuanxiu. She has never seen it. She has never known that it is a foreign rouge since she was a child. Either it is a metaphor based on the color after arriving in China.

Just like a box of rouge is called amber, but it is not extracted from amber.

One hundred boxes of various face powders, one hundred boxes of various incense sticks, and one hundred bottles of various essences Won Soo never knew that there were so many extravagant details in life. I thought I had a better life than everyone else.

Look further down: large handkerchiefs, small handkerchiefs, cloud silk handkerchiefs, green silk handkerchiefs, and jade brocade handkerchiefs. Tolai Xinji is a big market sandwiched between the north and the south. Yuanxiu can recognize half of the silk names, and the other half into Shang This is the first time she heard of the tribute.

In the words "embroidered plum blossom handkerchief, embroidered bamboo handkerchief, embroidered flying bird handkerchief, embroidered double flying bird handkerchief, embroidered bird handkerchief, embroidered cloud and wild goose handkerchief", Yuanxiu felt dizzy for a while.

At this time, she also has to admit that the Duke Huguo's government has solemnly proposed marriage, except that the whole family of King Wei came to show their dignity, and Xueshi Wang is an old friend of his grandfather's dream to show his heart. She is also impeccable in other aspects.

Some people may say that a hundred boxes of rouge is worth writing about, and a handkerchief embroidered with plum blossoms and clouds and geese is also worth writing about?
That is not a hand towel, it is also a hand towel with at least one hundred of each, and embroidered plum blossoms can have thousands of styles, a piece of old branch plus three plums is one kind, embroidered plum blossoms are one kind, half-bloomed plum blossoms are one kind, and half-blossomed plum blossoms are one kind. Whether the plum blossoms are three or five rolled petals, or five or eight spread petals, it is another kind.

There is not only one pattern for embroidered plum blossoms.

The same is true for embroidered Yunyan, Yunyan willow, Yunyan yellow flowers, Yunyan orchid grass, Yunyan lake stones, Qingyunyan, blue Yunyan, colorful Yunyan Some people may say that Yunyan has only one color.Are you sure?
Later generations used Yunyan as supplements for official uniforms. How many colors were used to count?Does it match the real Yunyan?

Patterns belong to art, and art can be imagined.

There are so many handkerchiefs with various patterns, and on the dowry list, there is only one sentence: embroidered plum flower handkerchiefs and Yunyan handkerchiefs among the [-] handkerchiefs of various colors.
