The marriage between the Meng family and the Jiang family continues to proceed step by step.

During this period, another major event happened in the capital. Su Xin was killed in the suburbs of Beijing and cut into several pieces. The method was extremely cruel. Some said it was done by the Meng family, and some said it was done by the Huang family, but no evidence could be provided.

.The Jingzhao Mansion and the Criminal Department were dispatched at the same time, but no clues were found.

Commander Su ran to the emperor and cried, saying that it was the Meng family and the Huang family who did it. While the emperor comforted him, he told him not to talk nonsense and to provide evidence for everything...

Of course Jiang Yixi knew that Meng Laogong and Meng Cimo ordered people to do that thing.

One morning a few days later, Jiang Yixi finished copying "The Female Ring" and did embroidery work. She had already quietly started to prepare the wedding dress. The outer dress was made by the sewing room in the house, and she made the inner dress.

Suddenly, I heard Shui Qing arguing with a girl, followed by Shui Ling's loud voice, "No matter how foul-mouthed you are, believe it or not, I'll beat you up."

Shuixiang went out and persuaded the girl to leave.

Shuixiang came in and said to Jiang Yixi, "Bi'er is unreasonable. She said that the third girl heard that Jiujiu is very talkative and wanted to borrow her for two days. Shuiqing didn't agree, so she started scolding people. Shuiling went out to beat her, but was

I held on."

Jiang Yiyan is the uncle's legitimate daughter. She is very arrogant in the house, and her girl also feels that she is higher than other girls.

Jiang Yixi fully believed that Huahua was just an inconspicuous civet cat. If it was a Persian cat that was rare to people, Jiang Yiyan would definitely want to "borrow" it, and it would be the kind of person who only borrows but never returns.

She said, "Don't lend her even a needle of anything in our yard."

Jiang Yiyan was unhappy and ran to the old lady to complain, but was scolded by the old lady.

"You are fifteen years old at the end of the new year, and you are still so playful. Because a bird is at odds with your sister, you are not afraid of spreading the word and affecting your marriage plan."

Jiang Yiyan pulled on the veil and said, "She is the elder sister. How can she blame me if she doesn't protect her first?"

The old lady snorted coldly, "No matter what Xi Yatou does, she has attracted the favor of the Meng family, and the Meng family took the initiative to propose marriage. What about you?"

The old lady glared at Jiang Yiyan angrily. The orphaned daughter of the second wife was about to become the wife of Duke Chengguo, and she almost became the crown prince of Yongwang. But this uncle's legitimate daughter, even though they were talking about several relatives, she was not mentioned.

become.

Both mother and daughter have eyes on the top of their foreheads, and they are looking for a wealthy family. It can be said that the girl is not good in any way, regardless of appearance, talent, or reputation...

Jiang Yiyan was poked in a painful spot and stamped his feet, daring not to speak any more.

In the evening at the end of winter, there was heavy wind and snow.

Jiang Xun returned home. He came to Zhuoyuan first. He was still a little lame when walking, but he was in good condition and had a cheerful smile.

The two siblings exchanged a few words outside the courtyard gate. Jiang Xun handed the roast chicken he bought to his sister before going to Ruyi Tang.

At the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, Jiang Yixi lifted the ban, and the marriage between the Meng family and the Jiang family also completed the application period. Mr. Meng specially asked the abbot of the Baoguo Temple to count the auspicious days and decided to get married on June 28 next year.

Wu Xiangbo's Mansion was finally confirmed to be the in-laws of Chengguo Duke's Mansion.

Although she could not become an in-law with Prince Yong's Mansion, she "lost" that in-law, and the old lady realized that only what is truly held in her hands is the most precious and real. If you fail to catch it for one day, there is a possibility of losing it. Meng

For the Jiang family, the government has reached a high level, so they must be content.

The list of betrothal gifts from the Meng family was also handed over to Mrs. Jiang, which totaled twenty-five thousand taels of silver. This kind of betrothal gift was considered high in the entire capital.

A large betrothal gift means that the daughter of the Jiang family is expensive.

Mrs. Jiang felt that Beier was honorable, so she told the people who came to congratulate her over and over again.

The in-laws had given so many betrothal gifts, so of course her own family could not afford too little. The old lady struggled all day and night and decided to spend 10,000 taels of silver on the dowry, and the betrothal money from the Meng family would also be included in the dowry.

Of the ten thousand taels of silver, the Jiang family received eight thousand and fifty taels of silver, plus the dowry left by the Hu family. The Hu family's dowry included 150 acres of land and a village, as well as a few less valuable ornaments and jewelry.

The old lady priced it at one thousand five hundred taels of silver.

As soon as her words came out of her mouth, Mrs. Jiang started crying, and Uncle Jiang didn't want to.

Mrs. Jiang cried, "Mother-in-law, my Hui girl is still the eldest daughter of the uncle's house. My uncle's biological daughter married the uncle's legitimate son, and the father-in-law only gave me four thousand taels of silver. The rule for other girls is that the third daughter of the uncle's house

Two thousand, and one thousand and fifty taels for the concubine. It’s a pity that the girl is marrying the heir of the Duke’s family. It’s already a big deal to add a thousand taels. How can we give so much? We are from the uncle’s house. It sounds nice, but we have more money and less money.

difficult……"

The old lady said angrily, "I don't know. Xi Ya is going to be the princess of the country in the future. Only by giving her a more dowry can she remember the goodness of her mother's family and try her best to support her brothers and sisters. Then how can Pingjin's Mansion compare with Cheng Guo's Mansion? Their original

The betrothal gift is only 10,000 taels, while the Meng family has 25,000 taels. Your family only prepares four or five thousand taels of silver, can you afford it?"

Then he looked at his eldest son, who looked unhappy, and asked, "What about you? You don't have small eyes like your wife, do you?"

Uncle Jiang hesitated and said, "Mother is right, we should buy Xi Ya a generous dowry. However, it is really difficult for the family to come up with so much money at once."

The old lady had no choice but to say, "The public will pay 6,000 taels, and I will pay 2,500 taels for the private house."

Uncle Jiang really wanted to say, wouldn’t it be easier if you, the old man, took out all the five thousand taels of silver that the Chengguo government gave to Jiang Chen? But he was too embarrassed to say this.

Mrs. Jiang is still unwilling. If the old lady’s private house is kept, her son will get more share, and the more will be given to the girl. The family will still suffer the loss.

She did not dare to say she disagreed, feeling aggrieved and distressed, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

The old lady was so angry that she scolded her, "Put away your petty thoughts. My second son paid for the five thousand taels of private money with his life. Even if I gave them all to Xi Yatou and Jiang Xun, it wouldn't be the same."

Come here to mourn."

Uncle Jiang did not dare to say anything anymore, frowned and scolded the eldest lady. In his opinion, the old lady's private house would definitely favor the third bedroom, and he would rather the old lady spend more time in the private house. As a rule, the property of the public is divided among the elders.

Most of...

The content of this high-level meeting was relayed to Jiang Yixi.

Jiang Yixi snorted coldly. Logically speaking, Hu's dowry should be divided equally between her and Jiang Xun, and even leave some more for Jiang Xun. They gave it to her in order to save money, and she accepted it as a matter of course in her previous life.

It wasn’t that she loved money so much before, but she just didn’t think about it. All she thought about was Meng Laosan...

Poor Xiao Jiang Xun. No one in this family cared about him in his previous life, and he died inexplicably in the end.

After Mrs. Jiang San knew that she had given Jiang Yixi such a large dowry, she felt a little distressed. She felt that it was too much higher than the prescribed amount, which would affect her son's future division of family property.
