On the other side, in a side courtyard in the Rongguo Mansion's large house, a group of girls and ladies were gathering and chatting here, and the atmosphere was harmonious and very happy.
This courtyard is where Yingchun moved back to the big house. It has only two entrances, but it is much more spacious and comfortable than the room behind Rongqingtang where I lived in the past.
Sanchun, Xue Baochai and even Lin Daiyu are here, and the one who talks the most is Yingchun’s wedding.
"Second sister, I heard that your marriage was handled by Brother Cong's third brother?"
Tanchun asked curiously: "Is this not in accordance with the rules?"
She now lives alone in the old lady's back room with Rongqingtang, and follows Mrs. Wang every day, so she naturally hears strange words.
We are not allowed to say no to the Spring Festival, and there is no intention to answer.
However, Xue Baochai glanced at Tanchun with deep meaning, covered her mouth and smiled, "Brother Cong is also a kind of good intention. I heard from my brother that Liu Xianglian is not many people, she is very chivalrous and a good person!"
"But I heard from the second wife that Liu Xianglian's family is in trouble and she has not accepted the favor of the Duke Liu family. I'm afraid there is no future, right?"
Tanchun had a different opinion and said, "If this happens, you can't help Brother Lian and Brother Cong's third brother!"
In ancient times, when getting married, the most important thing was to complement each other's resources, not the feelings of children, etc., especially the wealthy families were very realistic.
"Rong Mansion is now very popular, do you still need help from others?"
Xue Baochai shook her head and chuckled, and said leisurely: "On the contrary, Liu Xianglian, I heard from my brother that the third brother Cong intends to give him a good future!"
"How can I have that great confidence in my third brother Cong?"
Tanchun didn't believe it and said curiously: "Brother Lian is almost the same as taking action!"
hehe……
Xue Baochai smiled but didn't say anything. Since Tanchun didn't know, there was no need to reveal Jia Cong's ability, so as not to make any mistakes in the end, it was difficult to explain.
"Second sister, I heard that your marriage with Mr. Liu will have to go through all the procedures in about a year. How much dowry has the mansion prepared for you?"
Lin Daiyu was not interested in participating in the conversation between Tanchun and Xue Baochai. What she is most interested in now is Yingchun’s marriage preparation.
She didn't know what happened to the Sanchun sisters. The old lady said she valued it, but in fact it was just that, but she was more of a funny character.
Lin Daiyu's father is still there, and she is also a dignified minister of the Ministry of Rites. Naturally, she does not have the bad experiences in the original work. Her life in Rongfu is quite comfortable, and she will at least leave the Sanchun sisters far behind.
In addition, she is very smart and has long seen through some of the situations in the mansion.
In the past, I was really worried about the marriage between the Sanchun sisters, especially the dull sister Yingchun.
Yingchun can be said that grandma does not love her uncles, and she is not decent in the old lady's way, and she does not pay attention to her.
Otherwise, Yingchun is now sixteen, and she has never held a wedding ceremony, and there is no news outside. How can she marry someone in this situation?
When I returned to Lin's mansion this year, I even talked to my father. My father was helpless about it and could only shake his head and sigh that the girl in the mansion was not lucky.
Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, Yingchun, who was most worried about her, actually got married.
Lin Daiyu was very curious, so she naturally went to the mansion to inquire about the situation immediately, and then she found out that it was the kid Jia Cong who was doing it.
Although this kid's behavior was unruly as Tanchun said, he didn't look at the situation in the mansion. It would be difficult if he didn't get married.
Before Yingchun could speak, Xiao Xichun, who had always had close relationship with her, quickly shouted: "My second sister-in-law has already said that according to the rules of the mansion, Yingchun's sister will get married. The mansion will give 10,000 taels of dowry, and the dowry will be handled!"
After hearing this, Lin Daiyu's expression was not only not happy, but also a little worried. She felt a little dissatisfied with the master and the old lady, and even the old lady.
You should know that women's dowry, wealthy families start preparing for their dowry after they are born.
Even if Yingchun is just a concubine's daughter, she should have prepared when she is seven or eight years old or about ten years old, otherwise it would be embarrassing to handle the temporary arrangements in a hurry and would be embarrassing.
When making beds and furniture, you need good wood, otherwise you will not be able to show off as a girl from Yingchun Rongguo Mansion.
"Oh, what are you talking about? It's so lively?"
Wang Xifeng's voice came from the door, and suddenly calmed the girls in the room.
Following his elder sister who was so beautiful that she was wearing a pink and jade, Wang Xifeng entered the door with a smile and said with a funny look: "Don't stop, I'm not a beast!"
"We are talking about Sister Yingchun's marriage!"
Xichun was quick-talking and said with a smile: "Sister Tanchun said that Cong Ge'er's behavior was inappropriate. Sister Lin was asking about Sister Yingchun's preparation for the dowry!"
This young woman is famous among the Sanchun sisters who are not ashamed of giving people face.
Of course, the situation is much better now. Since Qin Keqing was named the lord of "Yong'an", she has taken her aunt back and lived a very comfortable life.
With the county lord, his reputation outside is no less than that of the old lady, the duke's wife. After all, is it related to the royal family?
In addition, Jia Zhen was a little more careful in his body, so he ate and drank, and used medicine to get romantic with his concubine, which suddenly broke his body. The condition was much heavier than before, according to the imperial physician.
I haven't had enough time to rest for three to five years, so I don't want to get up.
Without Jia Zhen, the tragedy, the atmosphere in Ning Mansion has improved a lot.
At least, in front of the nanny and palace servants sent by the clan mansion, the maids and servants of Ning Mansion did not dare to explode the stings at all.
Those who dared to rely on their seniority were sent to Jia Cong to dig coal in the coal mine in Yunzhong.
Qin Keqing is also a powerful person, with skillful and well-managed skills, and the order of Ning Mansion is well organized, which is much better than that of Rong Mansion.
Xichun followed her and lived a very comfortable life. Not only could she learn a lot of skills in housekeepers and managers, and her temperament gradually changed from cold to lively.
After all, a girl who is less than ten years old has not yet reached the point of being completely desperate about the world, so she naturally will not have the idea of becoming a monk and hiding purity.
Wang Xifeng's expression stagnated, glanced at Tanchun indifferently, and said with a giggle: "Don't worry about Yingchun's dowry. Not to mention that Lian Er was prepared, even Cong's third brother would have expressed it!"
Speaking of this, she smiled and said, "Even Mr. Liu, Lian Er and Cong, brothers, are planning to send them to the Five City Military and Ma Si. I believe that it will be successful in a few years. Yingchun may be sealed at that time.
Where is the imperial edict!"
"My second sister-in-law was joking, everything was arranged by the mansion!"
Yingchun's cheeks rose two flushed, and she said embarrassedly: "In addition, thank you for the second brother Lian and the third brother Cong for your concern!"
Wang Xifeng likes to hear these words, which means Yingchun is not an ungrateful person.
"By the way, Cousin Lin is at the age of visiting others. Is there any arrangements for Uncle Lin?"
After talking about Yingchun, Wang Xifeng pointed her target at Lin Daiyu and joked: "A woman changes a lot in a blink of an eye. I miss you so big when you came..."
As he said that, he gestured to a thin and small look, which immediately attracted a lot of laughter.
Lin Daiyu's face suddenly turned red and she said anxiously: "What are the second sister-in-law saying? I'm not in a hurry!"
As he said that, he picked up his elder sister and teased with a smile: "When will I get married? Will my aunt give you makeup?"
The eldest sister blinked and said with a heavy emphasis: "Okay!"
Suddenly, the laughter in the room became even louder...
After a while, Xichun still said, "The old lady is not happy to go out. The second wife doesn't have much time to go out to socialize, and the eldest wife doesn't have any good wife. How can I get to know the handkerchief and let the wife see her.
?”
As soon as these words came out, the sound in the room suddenly became quiet, it was really straight.
Xichun ignored so much and smiled, "So Brother Cong found Rong Ge'er and Rong Ge's daughter-in-law, and Master Lin Gu also came forward, so that Sister Yingchun and Sister Daiyu could learn to manage the house with Brother Rong's daughter-in-law.
Director, take them out for socializing!”
As soon as this said, Tanchun suddenly felt jealous, but there was nothing to say.
Xue Baochai suddenly interrupted and smiled: "My brother also asked Brother Rong and Brother Rong's daughter-in-law to let me be a female official with Brother Rong's daughter-in-law for a while!"
Despite this, compared with Yingchun and Xichun, as well as Duke and Marquis like Daiyu, they are far behind in their identities, but they can be considered as having left the business gate.
Because Xue Pan was "dead", the qualifications of the imperial merchants on him also disappeared, and Xue Baochai even lost her qualifications to enter the palace.
Fortunately, there is also the path of Brother Rong’s daughter-in-law, otherwise even with Xue Baochai’s determination, she might not be able to withstand such a blow. The best choice is to complete the ‘golden marriage’ with Phoenix Egg.
But the last choice was helplessness when there was no choice. Xue Baochai and Xue Pan were not happy, and Aunt Xue was quite enthusiastic.
Although the second wife had a palace concubine, no one knew how Yuanchun's palace concubine lived in the palace. The second wife had no powerful role in establishing a family, so Phoenix Egg could not count on it at all.
Excluding the influence of the palace concubine, the actual gap between the second and the big house will only grow bigger and bigger, especially when Jia Cong's plan slowly takes shape.
If you really want to marry, Jia Cong is much more reliable than Phoenix Egg.
"Okay, okay, I didn't expect that you girls will have a way out without saying a word. This is great!"
Wang Xifeng was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted and cheered: "No need to say more about Yingchun, Xichun and Daiyu, and Baochai can learn from Brother Rong's daughter-in-law, and go out to socialize. Tanchun can learn from the second wife, which is really good!
”
Of course, it is hard to say whether I think so.
Anyway, the girls are in a good mood, and everyone loves to listen to compliments. At least the girls in the house are not bad at the moment. This is very consistent with the booming momentum of the mansion at this time, regardless of whether it is for the future.
I was dissatisfied and was very happy at this time.
By the way, after teaching, Liu Xianglian gave a ancestral headdress to Yingchun as a token of love, but she was not as stupid as she was in the original work.
The engagement person is so considerate, and welcoming the Spring Festival is still very satisfied...
