Chapter one hundred and forty-eight gifts

  Although Zhang Yue was angry on the surface, he was still a little happy in his heart.

I have not been able to get married in my two lifetimes, but you got married first, and it turned out to be such a good marriage. Zhang Yue was a little jealous when he heard this.

 But when he heard that Huang Haoyi had suffered a loss due to raising an outside wife, Zhang Yue suddenly felt balanced in his heart.

 Look at it, don’t listen to the old man’s words.

I told you that the jade lotus is actually the "green lotus", because such a woman has delayed your good marriage.

 Huang Haoyi was "angrily scolded" by Zhang Yue and felt ashamed and embarrassed.

 Zhang Yue felt relieved when he saw this. He had wanted to scold you for a long time, but he was afraid that you would have a grudge in your heart. Now he has found this reason to scold you. Now that he has said it, you have to shed tears of gratitude to me.

After being angrily scolded by Zhang Yue, Huang Haoyi lowered his head, raised his head and asked with a blank expression: "Sanlang, what did you mean by the sentence "The Dong Chuang Incident happened" just now?

 Zhang Yue couldn't help but be startled, "Damn it, when the incident came to light, is this the focus of attention? Didn't you listen to a word I scolded you? What does it mean to worry about the incident coming to light? It's simply hopeless."

"You don't care whether it happened in the east or west? It's your own fault. I'm tired and I need to rest!"

After speaking, Zhang Yue waved his sleeves and walked into the studio.

 After Zhang Yue returned to his apartment, he saw Huang Haoyi following him in. Then he sat beside his bed and sighed.

 Sentence by sentence, "What can I do?"

 ‘What can I do?’

"Sanlang, for the sake of my sister-in-law, please help me no matter what. This is what she arranged."

 Zhang Yue listened and kept silent.

Liu Zuo asked from the side: "You said your sister-in-law arranged your marriage?"

 Huang Haoyi’s sister-in-law is Huang Haoqian’s wife and Zhang Dun’s nominal sister, but this is none of his business.

Huang Haoyi said: "Yes, if it weren't for the face of my brother and sister-in-law, how could we have arranged such a good marriage? Then Liu Jiancheng and his wife just took a fancy to me at a glance and promised me a dowry of five thousand guan. This time, the affair of the foreign wife is also

You told me to be alone and let me handle it myself, but I didn’t tell my brother and sister-in-law.”

 Zhang Yue heard this and realized that Huang Haoyi actually had a dowry of five thousand guan.

Liu Zuo looked at Qitu with an envious look and said, "There are really five thousand strings!"

Historically, Qin Hui and his wife were captured, and the Jin people wanted to separate them. As a result, Qin Hui's wife shouted, I brought you a dowry of 200,000 yuan, are you going to abandon me now?

After hearing this, the wife of the Jin prisoner quickly persuaded her husband to let the two of them go together.

 Qin Hui’s wife is the granddaughter of Wang Gui, the “Mr. Three Emperors”. Faced with the power of the Yue family and the generous dowry, Qin Hui obeyed his wife’s words, so in the end the couple knelt in front of Yue Fei’s tomb.

With a wife who can bring a dowry of five thousand guan, no wonder Huang Haoyi is "tempted". Liu Zuo and Xiang Qi also kindly help him as advisers.

"Sanlang, these twenty dollars are really life-saving money. As long as the marriage can come true, I will pay you back tenfold in the future."

 Zhang Yue said resolutely: "Isn't it ten times? I won't borrow a hundred times."

Huang Haoyi patted his chest and said, "Sanlang, you can't trust me."

 “I really can’t believe it!”

 Huang Haoyi's smile froze on his face instantly.

“Sanlang, you and I are classmates and fellow villagers. Your sister is still my sister-in-law... You must help me with this favor.”

Zhang Yue remained silent. Liu Zuo on the side was a little moved after hearing this and said, "Silang asked Sanlang what he would do with twenty guan. If he uses the money to appease him or add it to the betrothal gift, twenty guan will be a drop in the bucket."

Huang Haoyi said: "I'm not worried about the betrothal gift. My family has already made arrangements for me. It's just that Liu Jiancheng personally asked me to sever my relationship with my wife... Although I couldn't bear to be separated from Yulian, I had to agree.

Already..."

Hearing this, Zhang Yue sneered: "You must have been sad for several days!"

Huang Haoyi sighed and said: "Then what can be done? Even if the court officials take concubines, they will give them away when their kindness fades, let alone the outer concubine. I was already very affectionate towards Yu Lian before.

It’s just that fate has its way with people.”

Zhang Yue's expression changed and he thought for a while that at that time, concubines and maids could indeed send them back and forth, even to his friends, so he had nothing to blame Huang Haoyi.

"But Yulian has been looking for death and survival for a long time. He also wants to make this matter known to the whole city, saying that I have always been in trouble and finally abandoned it, and will report to the teacher of Taixueli that I have no home. This matter is something I owe Yulian.

First, I would like to take twenty guans first... to settle Yulian down, or find a good home for her."

Zhang Yue sneered and thought to himself, from what he knew, a woman as greedy as Yulian, if she knew that Huang Haoyi had such a good marriage, she would definitely not give up and want to throw away just twenty coins? It's like a dream.

 Zhang Yueding would not help with this. Liu Zuo said at the side: "Silang, I happen to have some money on hand. I will pay these twenty coins for you."

Huang Haoyi said with a face of surprise: "Really? Thank you so much to the head of the house. I will definitely pay back ten times the amount when the time comes."

Liu Zuo smiled and said: "What are you doing with all this money? The important thing is that Shiro has gotten into such a good marriage, and I and I will also benefit from it!"

Hearing this, Xiang Qi laughed and said, "Of course."

Zhang Yue was not interested in this matter. He first carved the two chapters of Sima Twelve and then talked about it.

As for Huang Haoyi and Liu Zuo on the side, Xiang Qi was having a lively chat, talking about what the Yue family would be like in the future.

 Liu Jiancheng's family tradition is so strict, his home is so luxurious, and his servants are so polite.

He also mentioned how well-connected Liu Jiancheng was in the imperial court, how favorably he favored him, and how much effort his brother and sister-in-law had put in to help him arrange this marriage.

Speaking of the five thousand dowry, there is a manor of more than ten acres in the suburbs of Bianjing. As long as he becomes the son-in-law, the manor and the deeds of dozens of housekeepers and servants will be handed over to him.

Liu Zuo and Xiang Qi were envious and secretly jealous after hearing this.

 Zhang Yue shook his head and continued with the matter at hand.

 The next day, Zhang Yue also carved the seal whenever he had free time.

On weekdays, when Zhang Yue is studying and has free time, he can engrave chapters. It can be regarded as a first-class leisure, and he can change his thoughts after studying.

Three days later, he took the two seals to Shuzhuzhai, handed them to the owner of the shop, and settled the money with one hand. Zhang Yue then consigned the seals here and sold one, so Zhang Yue got a total of

Eight pieces of money.

 Zhang Yue has calculated that he now has more than 20 guan of money. With the money his brother sent from home, he already has a net worth of 30 guan. This is one step closer to buying a house in Bianjing.

If you buy a house, you will take your brother, sister-in-law, Zhangqiu, from your hometown to live there.

  Or open a shop of your own, so that you can have a source of livelihood in the future.

 Zhang Yueru thought.

With so much money in his pocket, Zhang Yue went to the market to buy about ten pieces of Shoushan stones of excellent quality.

 In the past, Zhang Yue was worried that there would be problems with the market and it would be difficult to sell, so he did not dare to buy too much. Now that he has the confidence, he dares to engrave more.

Zhang Yueru was thinking about walking back to the apartment, but he saw Huang Haoyi waiting at the door of the apartment with an anxious look on his face.

 The more I read Zhang, I felt the urge to take a detour.

“Sanlang, are you the only one who can help me with this task now?”

 “What are you busy with?” Zhang Yue asked angrily.

Huang Haoyi said: "Sanlang, let me speak frankly. Yulian said that although she has twenty guans to settle down, how can she settle down in Bianjing, and she is so wandering. She said that as long as she is given another thirty guans..."

 “It’s up to you to decide on this matter.”

Zhang Yue rolled his sleeves and was about to leave, but Huang Haoyi said again: "Thirty guan of money is less important. I still have some borrowed here and there, but she said that she was lonely and helpless and wanted to find a good man to settle down. She said that she would think about it.

Go, I would like to commit myself to you, Saburo can only entrust you with this matter."

Hearing this, Zhang Yue was dumbfounded and pointed at himself, asking Huang Haoyi: "Do you want me to take over?"

  When the second brother ran away from marriage, some of his neighbors planned to let him take over his marriage.

Now that Huang Haoyi has found himself again, is he so 'helping others' in the eyes of others?

Huang Haoyi asked curiously: "What does Sanlang mean by taking over?"

Zhang Yue shook his head and said: "Sanlang, Silang, there's no need to talk anymore. This way, you don't have to ask me about the gifts from the outside. If you say one more thing, we will cut off our robes! For such a good thing, you'd better hire someone else!"

"

 As he spoke, Zhang Yue pulled up his sleeves and left, ignoring Huang Haoyi as he returned to his apartment.

Huang Haoyi chased Zhaishe and said: "Sanlang, think about how beautiful Yulian is? Are you not tempted by such a delicate beauty? And there are fifty strings. Yulian has promised to commit herself to you in the future. These fifty strings

She is willing to give you any money."

 Zhang Yue couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this. He had become a pretty boy.

Suddenly he remembered the teasing tactics used by Huang Haoyi and Yulian that day when he was drinking with her, and the way the passing men looked at her when they were in the inn that day.

Zhang Yue is also funny, he is actually thinking about this.

Liu Zuo also joked: "Sanlang, just agree to Silang. Not only did you get a beauty and a money envoy, but you also helped Silang a lot."

 After talking about Liu Zuo, Xiang Qidu burst into laughter.

Huang Haoyi also said anxiously: "Sanlang, tell me today whether you want to help or not."

Zhang Yue said to Huang Haoyi: "Silang, if I help you, what will happen if I marry a wife in the future? I will also bear the reputation of being a wife. I know that you marry a woman from an official family, and you have very strict requirements for this. In the future, I

I may not be able to reach such a high level. But even if I marry a girl from an ordinary family in the future, how can it be fair to her? What does she think of me in her heart? I am afraid that such a grudge will not be resolved in a lifetime. I will help

You have harmed you, is this possible?"

"Silang, let me advise you. This woman Yulian is ten times smarter and more powerful than you. There is nothing you can do against her. Rather than being led by her, it is better to go back and report to your brother and sister-in-law, and confess the matter to your family.

Let them advocate for you. You can't delay this matter. I think Liu Jiancheng is also a government official after all. How can it be so easy to deal with? He deliberately didn't tell your brother and sister-in-law, just to use this to test you."

"And now that you are like this, you plan to give me some extra money to settle Yulian for you. If this comes to Liu Jiancheng's ears, I am afraid that not only Yulian will look down on you, but even this marriage will not be guaranteed!"

 After Zhang Yue's words, Huang Haoyi's expression changed.
