Jinyi Music

"Then you have inquired about who the little lady's sister married?"

Hong Dagui replied,
"It is said that she married an official..."

Thinking about it, he wouldn't be a high-ranking official, if not...would still let my sister-in-law show her face outside?

"Official?"

The matchmaker groaned when she heard the words, patted her thigh and said,
"Auntie Hong, you are big-hearted, why don't you ask clearly? Today I went to Mao'er Alley, and when I came out, I kept my mind open and asked the people next to me about the courtyard. Who lives in it, who do you think lives in it?"

The Hong family asked in unison,
"who is it?"

The matchmaker slapped her thigh,
"That's the mansion of Mou Biao, a thousand household of Jin Yiwei, and the one in the courtyard is Mou Biao's first wife, Jia Shi!"

"Jinyiwei!"

The Hong family was taken aback,
"Jinyiwei?"

"Isn't it? It's Jin Yiwei, who is Mou Biao... that's the youngest son of Jin Yiwei's commanding envoy family, and now a big celebrity in front of the emperor, your family is really daring, such a relative dares to climb up, and even let me come to the door... ...It's because that lady has a good temper, she didn't mess with the stick and drove me out!"

Speaking of this place, the matchmaker patted her chest in fear, with a look of luck on her face, and turned her head to see that the Hong family members looked at her dully, the matchmaker slapped her thigh,
"Ouch! Aunt Hong... I've been a matchmaker for so many years, and I'm used to being able to match a couple. But this marriage, I advise you to think about it. This... the saying goes Qi Dafei, this natal family is very powerful, and your husband's family is a dwarf. In the future, your family will be overwhelmed by your daughter-in-law, so you can't blame me as a matchmaker..."

This matchmaker is also a real person, she is sincerely thinking about them, the Hong family thought about it, and immediately hesitated, the father of the Hong family sighed, and asked his wife to give the matchmaker a red award,
"His aunt, let us think about this matter again!"

"Okay, it's good to think about it!"

The matchmaker nodded repeatedly.

After the matchmaker left, the three members of the Hong family looked at each other and I looked at you in the shop. After a while, Mrs. Hong said,
"That... Your son... Mother thinks that the matchmaker is right. Officials of such a big family probably look down on us, a small family. Even if you insist on marrying us, in the future... I will be afraid You are the one who suffers!"

Hong Dagui sat there, bowed his head for a while and didn't answer, Old Man Hong also said,

"Son, our family background is too low. Marrying her is Gao Pan. Your mother is right. In the future, whenever a young couple has a quarrel, as soon as she greets her family, we...we have no place to reason!"

It's fine if it's an official next to him, it's Jin Yiwei!
Jin Yiwei is famous outside, are they reasonable people?
Hong Dagui was still silent, no one knows a son like a mother, Aunt Hong persuaded after seeing this,
"Your dear, there are many young ladies in this good family. Although our family is not rich and powerful, we still have food and clothing. We will do business honestly and not climb those high branches. This marriage will be fine. Your aunt in front I mentioned that there was a young lady in the village over there who was very good-natured, skillful, diligent, and good-natured..."

Before Mrs. Hong could finish her words, Hong Dagui jumped up and ran out of the shop in a blink of an eye. After Mrs. Hong chased her out a few steps, her son disappeared into the crowd. Mrs. Hong came out and sighed,

"Stop chasing...let him think for himself!"

Hong Dagui ran to the front of Jia's noodle shop in a hurry, and saw Wulian who was packing up the dishes inside, but stood still in front of the door. When Wulian looked up and saw him, she laughed.

"Why are you here? The shop isn't busy?"

Seeing him standing there motionless, he wiped the water off his hands and came over to ask,
"What's wrong?"

I looked at his expression, thought for a while and asked,
"You...someone went to Mao'er Alley to propose a marriage, and Fourth Sister didn't nod?"

Hong Dagui nodded,
"You...what kind of official is your brother-in-law's family?"

Wulian replied,

"I live in Mao'er Hutong, most of them are from Fusi Yamen in Beizhen. My fourth sister married Jin Yiwei..."

"You...how come you never mentioned to me..."

Wulian smiled and said,

"What's there to mention? My fourth sister is my fourth sister, and I am me. Although my brother-in-law is a big official, we don't have much contact with each other on weekdays..."

After hearing this, Hong Dagui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Wu Lian laughed and said,

"What's wrong, my brother-in-law doesn't eat people, what are you afraid of?"

Hong Dagui raised his hand and scratched his head,
"That...the matchmaker said that Qi Dafei was the one who cheated on you, and I'm afraid I'll be bullied by you in the future..."

Wu Lian was even more funny when she heard that,

"What are you talking about, Gao Pan? I sell noodles and you sell rice. They are all doing small business to make ends meet. Who is higher than whom? Besides..."

She gave Hong Dagui a sideways glance, her eyes flickered,

"You are taller than me, your arms are thicker than mine, and your voice is louder than me. How can I bully you? Why do I think you will bully me more?"

Hong Dagui's mind was shaken by her staring eyes, and he immediately felt that the worry in front of him was completely unfounded, and he seemed to be very small-minded, and his face blushed, his waist straightened, and he replied loudly,

"Wulian, don't worry... I... I will treat you well in the future, and I will not bully you!"

Wu Lian covered her mouth and smiled. Hong Dagui stayed at Wu Lian's place for a long time, dragged her to talk for a long time, and only then did she know that their family had six daughters and one son. The brother-in-law who worked as a thousand households made a gap in the history of the old father-in-law, but none of the brothers-in-law in the family was touched, but she and Liulian used the shop bought by her brother-in-law to do business.

"I'm not afraid to let you know that my fourth sister is very much loved by her brother-in-law, and even her father-in-law loves my fourth sister very much. The fields, shops, and manors in her hands can support me and my sixth sister." Miss Cheng Qianjin, but my fourth sister doesn't want to do this, she just said that being a woman requires ambition, and only gave us a shop, so we can eat with our own hands, so...you can rest assured, my fourth sister It's not the person who bullies others, and I will definitely not use the power of my husband's family to suppress you in the future!"

Hong Dagui was immediately relieved after hearing this, and happily went back to talk to his parents. Father Hong and Mrs. Hong looked at each other, but there was a wry smile on their faces.

"My son, you are also young. At this time, your affection is strong. Naturally, what you say is nice. It can be done later..."

Mrs. Hong also said,
"Yes! Guier, this young couple always has bumps in their lives. At this time, it is easy to talk about the deep affection. In the future... this person's heart is changeable!"

At that time, she will be a tyrant in our family. If we don't obey, she will sue her mother's family. Isn't it as easy for their family to pinch our house as pinching an ant to death!

Hong Dagui replied when he heard the words,

"Who knows what will happen in the future, if everyone thinks about what will happen in the future, then the days ahead will be over!"

Paused and dropped the next sentence,
"My son is marrying Wulian...it's decided!"

In this way, Hong Dagui and his family had been arguing for several days, and the two elders of the Hong family had only such a son, and they really couldn't hold him back, so they had to ask the matchmaker to go to Mao'er Alley again.
"This marriage is right, we don't ask for a lot of gifts when we marry our daughter, as long as we are good to Wulian..."

The matchmaker nodded repeatedly and laughed,
"My wife's sister is one of the best in a hundred. Even if Hong Dagui has a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to treat her badly!"

Si Lian laughed when she heard that,

"The most important thing between a husband and wife is to love each other. If you say something about being courageous or not, that's your identity..."

Presumably the matchmaker found out who his husband's family was, so his tone changed!
Then he said,

"It's only our family, and you all know that there is still a younger sister who is not married. If the fifth younger sister marries the Hong family, it will be difficult for our younger sister to support the shop alone, so you go back and discuss with the Hong family. In the future, the fifth younger sister Still in the shop, together with the sixth younger sister, the income in the shop was shared equally between the two of them. Even if the fifth younger sister is married, from then on, some of her monthly income can also be handed over to her husband's family, which is counted as going to the second elder. filial piety..."

The matchmaker wrote it down carefully, and when he came out of Damaoer Hutong, he went straight to the Hong family. When the Hong family heard the conditions, Father Hong thought for a while and nodded,

"That's right, their family... my father has a stepmother, and he has no daughter in his heart. If she leaves the shop and only her sister is left, it will be difficult to support..."

They are all business people, so they naturally know these difficulties!

Right now,
"We agreed on this matter, but...the income in the shop was earned by the daughter-in-law herself. We two old ones can walk and move and the shop earns money. How can we ask for the money from the daughter-in-law? She just takes it herself!"

When the matchmaker went over and said, Si Lian said in her heart,

"The Hong family is kind!"

So he nodded and agreed to the marriage. When Mou Biao came back at night and heard about it, he laughed and said,

"When the father-in-law left, he entrusted his two younger sisters to us. The marriage has been settled, and we still have to buy the dowry..."

After thinking about it,

"How about...give Wulian a shop or a few acres of fertile land?"

Silian Road,
"You don't need to touch it, in my hand..."

She had just finished speaking when she remembered that she had already sold all the shop and fields in her hand, and now she is so poor that all she has left is money!

Mou Biao laughed,

"It's okay, just buy her some gold and silver jewelry, clothes, shoes and socks, and leave the rest to me!"

He has always been vigorous and resolute in his work, and when the Hong family's dowry came, he had already found a shop for Wulian.
"In the outer city...although it's not big, but the business is very good on the main street..."

But he didn't mention how he bought it. He had many means, and Si Lian didn't ask in detail, so he kept the land deed and called Wu Lian to Mao'er Alley before he gave birth.
"I'm going to give birth in ten days or so. I'm afraid I'll be troubled and I won't be able to take care of you for a while, so I prepared a dowry for you earlier..."

After finishing speaking, he asked someone to take out the clothes, jewelry and the land deed, and gave her another 1000 taels of silver notes.
"This is for you to press the bottom of the box... You must not let it go, if you encounter difficulties in the future, you can take it out..."
