Chapter 82 Let My Mother Come Up To Chat With You
As Jin Jiuyin guessed, Jiang Shi suddenly felt smoke from the dowry when she heard that she wanted Ying Jie'er's dowry, "How dare she? She really dares to speak loudly, and she dares to think about Ying Jie'er's dowry for anything."
The dowry of the legitimate lady in the mansion was 40,000 taels, which should have been 60,000 taels. The old lady's two daughters were 60,000 taels, of course the private subsidies did not count.
In the generation of Ying Jie'er, except for the large illegitimate houses, there are four legitimate daughters in two or three illegitimate houses, one person has 60,000 taels, and four people have 240,000 taels. Adding to six or seven illegitimate daughters, no matter how big the family business is, the Qingning Marquis's Mansion can't afford to marry.
So the old lady changed the dowry and money to 40,000 taels of legitimate daughter and 10,000 taels of concubine daughter.
Jiang was naturally unhappy. He lost 20,000 taels for no reason. Who doesn’t feel sorry for him? But there is no way to feel sorry for him. This decision is not only the old lady’s meaning, but also the Marquis of her husband.
Thinking about it, when the old lady is hers after a hundred years, she can accept it instantly. Although the Duke gave the dowry, isn’t it all her money?
Just reduce it. The third wife has two sisters who are born in the law, so I saved 40,000 taels at once.
In addition to the 40,000 taels sold in the mansion, Jiang's family added an additional 20,000 taels of silver to their daughter. In addition, there was also a shop shop, a house with jewelry, silk and satin, which was worth 100,000 taels in total.
How could Jiang be willing to give such a generous dowry? It is also someone that she dislikes. You should know that she has saved up Ying Jie'er's dowry for more than ten years, and some of the wood inside can't be bought with money. Why is it cheaper to be a bitch?
He also blamed the Marquis and gave the dowry to that little girl. What should I do if Sister Ying? Sister Ying is fifteen. Even if it is difficult to mention marriage for a while, it will only take place within one or two years. Where can she buy the same dowry?
"Mr. Marquis, it's not that I can't bear to leave me, it's really---------" Jiang said, his voice choked, "If it's just the one from Gongzhong, I don't have anything to say, but you know, how much effort has I spent on Sister Ying's dowry? Since she's so big, I'll save her dowry-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lin Chongting also felt that when he returned from Mobei, his eldest daughter was several months old and pink and duo. It was the time when people liked it, which immediately warmed his heart.
He was very strict with his eldest son, but he really loved his eldest daughter, otherwise he would not have tried his best to break the engagement. He couldn't bear to give her her dowry to others. After thinking about it, he said, "Forty thousand taels of silver is also a lot, and only the foundation left by his father is rich. For example, the legitimate daughter's dowry was only 20,000 taels, and the concubine was only 5,000."
"The things you prepared are still kept for Sister Ying, and you can only send the one in the official school to her. But the dowry should be bought well, so don't let the outside world laugh."
Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Marquis for understanding me." She pressed the corner of her eyes with a veil, "I gave birth to three brothers and sisters. Ying Jie'er is the most sensible, and I care about her the least. Whenever I think of it, I feel guilty and want to compensate her for one or two on the dowry."
Lin Chongting's expression became softer when he heard this, "It's really hard for you."
To manage the huge marquis' mansion, we must also raise the six children of the legitimate and illegitimate children in this house. Not to mention the three children born in the vain, the eldest son is diligent and motivated, the eldest daughter is sensible and talented, and the second daughter is lively and silly. Lin Chongting was still very satisfied.
"With this sentence of the marquis, I will die without regrets." Jiang said emotionally, with a bright light flashing in his eyes.
Lin Chongting's heart moved in this attitude of admiration and trust, covered her hand and said softly: "Don't worry, Sister Ying is my eldest daughter, can I still treat her badly? I have already thought about her future."
"Hmm?" Jiang looked up, Yingying's eyes shining.
Lin Chongting said, "The eldest prince has been married for many years but only one daughter, and the eldest prince's concubine is weak." He stopped and did not continue to say it, but Jiang heard the meaning of his words, "The Marquis said? No, no, how can Ying Jie'er be a concubine?" The concubine is also a concubine!
Lin Chongting said, "What's wrong with the concubine? I'll also be given a royal jade certificate. As long as Sister Ying can give birth to her eldest son, she is the eldest prince's cousin, who can go over her?"
"If the eldest prince has great luck in the future, our grandson will be—" he lowered his voice, "The eldest son, or even the prince!" His voice was even lower in the last two words. If Jiang hadn't gotten close to him, he wouldn't have heard it.
Whether it is the eldest son or the prince, it is all extremely tempting words. Jiang was moved by the heart, but he was more worried, "What if the eldest prince's concubine gave birth to a legitimate son? What if someone else was ahead of Ying Jie'er? Even if the eldest prince's concubine couldn't give birth, what if she wanted to take Ying Jie'er's child?"
As mothers, especially those in the backyard, think too much about them.
Lin Chongting smiled slightly, "There is no need to worry about these things. If the eldest prince sincerely asks to marry our sister Ying, he will naturally show his sincerity. With the palace queen and the Qingning Marquis' Mansion, nothing you worry about will happen."
Although the eldest prince is his nephew, if you want him to support him with all his strength, you have to show some sincerity, right?
"Xie Ying's fate is good, maybe she may not be the concubine-------" Lin Chongting said meaningfully.
Jiang was stunned at first, then shocked, and finally looked excited. It was entirely possible, why did she forget that weak person? Maybe she would go there at any time. Then her daughter married her - although she was Xuxian, she was also a legitimate princess!
As her daughter grew older, Jiang often regretted that she had not been born a few years earlier and did not catch a good opportunity. Now that this opportunity is coming, can she not be excited?
"Don't worry, Master, I will prepare a decent dowry for Sister Yin." He quickly blocked the dead girl's mouth, so that her sister Ying could pull her feet out of the quagmire and embarked on the Qingyun Road.
"I'll be at ease when you do things." Lin Chongting looked at Jiang's family with a smile.
Jin Jiuyin was so tough that she said no, but she didn't want it. It was useless to let you cry and beg for kneeling. In the end, the housekeeper held the contract and sent the person back.
The slaves who returned to Hengwuyuan were very at ease and worked very hard. They didn't even dare to speak loudly in their daily lives. If Jin Jiuyin took a few more glances at them, they would be trembling all over.
Lian Xiang Miaorong's four second-class maids were even more careful. They used to think about going into the house to serve them, but now they are eager to stay away. Unless they are summoned, they dare not even take a step into the main room.
It is true that they have children at home, but this one is an unreasonable person, and he is the one who can't even take the marquis. What else can they do besides being obedient?
Jin Jiuyin, no matter what these servants think, she is busy printing books and selling money. She found a bookstore to cooperate with. This bookstore is not the largest in Beijing, nor the most financial resources, but the reputation and integrity are the best. The head's surname is Du, and the bookstore is passed down from ancestors and is said to have been passed down for six generations.
This is simply a good business that comes to the door. When Du Dong's family was overjoyed, they didn't dare to underestimate Jin Jiuyin at all. This young man looked not old, but he could print the answer sheet of Tanhua, the No. 1 winner of the past year. Could it be that his background is ordinary? I'm afraid that there are only a few young masters from the family who are favored by the royal family.
Du Dongjia did not suspect that the manuscript was fake. After all, he printed books and sold books, so he still had eyesight. So he respected Jin Jiuyin, who was concealing her clothes, and the two quickly discussed the distribution of interests.
In order to make more money, Jin Jiuyin also actively came up with several ideas, such as printing hardcover and paperbacks, which can be sold to wealthy scholars, and paperbacks can be bought for scholars with poor financial conditions. They can print collections, and can also print collections. If the poor family cannot afford the collection, they can buy collections with friends and classmates, and then copy them through each other.
Making money is the main thing, but Jin Jiuyin doesn't mind doing some good things while making money. She respects knowledge and also respects scholars who are devoted to learning.
This made Du Dongjia even more agree with her, feeling that although this young man was young, he acted with a sense of grandeur and compassion.
The dowry list was delivered, Jin Jiuyin looked at it and calculated quickly in her heart that it was only half a cup of tea, and she finished reading it. She closed it and threw it on the table with a bang, "The eldest daughter of the Marquis's house only had a dowry of 40,000 taels after getting married, which is too shabby! What did the second aunt think? Are you not afraid of embarrassing the empress in the palace? Or is it that Cousin Ying is not her biological child?"
Xianglan was shocked. How did the fourth lady know that the dowry was 40,000 taels? Could it be that the news leaked? No, it was impossible! The value of this dowry was the only one who knew the value of the wife and the marquis.
Then there is only one possibility, the fourth lady calculated it himself. But how is this possible? It is easy to estimate the large items of Zhuangzi Shop and House, and the silk, satin, jewelry, and utensils and ornaments. How could she calculate it in such a short time? She didn't even take the abacus!
Even if she has a great mental calculation, what about the prices? Miss Four knows the prices of these things very well?
Pandan found it incredible.
"When I go back to the fourth lady, I don't know, I am just an errand runner."
"I don't know? Then let's talk to me if you know. Go back and change to someone who can make the decision." Jin Jiuyin raised her voice and said.
Looking at the maid's back in panic, Jin Jiuyin couldn't help but sneer and thought to herself: Jiang is smart, she can't avoid her affairs, so she let the marquis stand up and send a maid over if she can't escape, thinking that she would fool her.
Ha, how easy is it?
"She really took half a cup of tea to calculate it?" Jiang suddenly grabbed Xianglan's hand and looked cold.
Xianglan's hand was so painful that it hurt, but she did not dare to show a painful expression. She gritted her teeth and said, "Back to Madam, yes. I can guarantee that it will never last more than half a cup of tea."
Jiang let go of his hand and sat back slowly, thinking in his eyes, "It seems that the dead girl is a bit good at filming." Before his feelings, they were always pretending to be a pig and eating tigers, "I underestimated her."
But no matter how powerful it is, she is still a little girl. The back house of the Qingning Marquis Mansion is her own acre of three-point land. No matter how wild the cat comes in, it has to pull out its claws.
"Let's go, I want to see what she wants to do?" The 40,000 taels are not satisfied, and they have such a big appetite, so they are not afraid of dying.
When Jiang arrived at Hengwuyuan, Jin Jiuyin saluted very seriously, "Second Aunt." She was like a good baby.
Jiang was shocked. Although it was just a simple ritual, it was best to see a person's etiquette. She did not shake her shoulders or shake her shoulders, was neither fast nor slow, and had a calm and elegant posture. She could not tell that she had only been a few days after learning the rules. She seemed to have grown up carefully since she was educated.
"Get up quickly, the whole family doesn't have to be so heretic." Jiang looked at Jin Jiuyin affectionately.
Jin Jiuyin looked back at her and said, "Thank you, Second Aunt." She sat down happily.
Jiang talked to her about homework and asked her if she was used to living, eating, and learning rules. Jin Jiuyin answered softly and said in a low voice: "Actually, it's very tiring to learn rules, but my father said it was for my own good, so I gritted my teeth and persevered. Mama Rong praised me for learning good things." She looked very excited and cheerful.
Jiang praised him, but felt that he was very annoying in his heart.
The topic was full of talk, and finally it was about dowry, "Sister Yin, I heard from the maid that you are not very satisfied with the dowry?"
"I'm not very satisfied." Jin Jiuyin nodded frankly, "Second Aunt Ying is your biological daughter, so you sent her for 40,000 taels of silver? Or did you take half of the dowry because I married me?"
Jiang's palms tightened. He was so damn that he slandered her half of the dowry when he opened his mouth.
"This is not OK. I was going to take a fire pit for my cousin Ying. It was said that it was Cousin Ying's dowry, and it would be impossible to get one or two silver dollars."
Jiang clasped his fists and showed a embarrassed expression, "Sister Yin, 40,000 taels of silver is a lot. You go out and inquire about it. How can those officials who marry their daughters give them 40,000 taels of dowry? 20,000 taels are the best, and it is only a few thousand taels."
"There are too many girls in our house. It is already the limit to be able to give you 40,000 taels. The income in the house has not been good in recent years. I can only maintain a balance. Sister Yin, you are a good child, and you should also be considerate and considerate about the difficulties at home."
"No, second aunt, are you talking about a small official with a sixth and seventh rank, marrying a daughter? We are in the Marquis' Mansion, and there is an empress in the palace. How can we compare with a small family?" Jin Jiuyin looked innocent, "Is our family so difficult? My father and I want 50,000 taels of silver, and he gave it to me that night."
Jiang's eyes turned dark, and "five----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jin Jiuyin nodded innocently, "Yes, it's 50,000 taels. My father was sympathetic and afraid that I would be bullied in the Virgin Hou Mansion, so he gave me 50,000 taels of silver."
Jiang's nails were about to be pinched into the flesh, 50,000 taels, but she really didn't know that there was still 50,000 taels, so the Marquis didn't tell her at all.
"Sister Yin, that's the Marquis' love for you. The Marquis' love for you, you have to understand the Marquis', right? You are a good child-------" Balabala put a lot of high hats on Jin Jiuyin.
Jin Jiuyin listened obediently and listened very seriously. At the end, she said to Jiang, "Second Aunt, I actually came from Mobei and brought this." She slowly picked up something from the table and took off the black cloth outside.
"This, this is------" Jiang was so shocked that he almost jumped out of his seat.
"Yes, it's my mother's tablet." Jin Jiuyin Zheng pointed his head and respectfully placed the ranking on the table, facing Jiang's house.
"I originally didn't want to take my mother's tablet. She was born in Mobei and grew up in Mobei and was innocent and free and ignorant of the world. The capital is very rules, and I really can't bear to bear this crime. I didn't want my mother to go in at the ancestral hall of the Qingning Marquis' Mansion. Anyway, she didn't know any of them, and she was lonely even after entering."
Her hands caressed the ranking, her eyes roaming and sad.
"But I was also afraid, afraid of being bullied when I entered the Marquis' Mansion. So I brought my mother's tablet. If anyone bullies me, I would tell my mother and let her come up to him in the middle of the night to talk to him."
"Second Aunt, do you want to chat with my mother?" Jin Jiuyin's expression was extremely sincere. "To be honest, you are my father's wife and have never met each other. Why don't you chat?" The naive suggestion.
Jiang Shi felt her heart suddenly hurt, and after a while she recovered, she squeezed out a reluctant smile, "No, no need."
"Then is my second aunt going to give me a dowry?" Jin Jiuyin's eyes lit up.
"No, no------" Jiang quickly denied it.
Jin Jiuyin's little face suddenly collapsed, "No!" She looked very disappointed, "This table is too simple, my mother must be unhappy on it, I think she should send it to the ancestral hall."
"Wait, Sister Yin, Second Auntie remembered that the mighty Hou Mansion is higher than our Hou Mansion, and your dowry should be thicker by two more points."
"Two minutes?" Jin Jiuyin held the tablet.
"No, it's three points! Look at my second aunt's memory." Jiang smiled on his face, but his eyes were very cold, and he wanted to tear Jin Jiuyin and eat it.
"Oh, so that's it! Thank you, Second Aunt." Jin Jiuyin cheered, looking very happy.
He glanced at Jiang's sideways and felt proud: Little, look at my killer weapon!
