Professor Li’s Married Life Chapter 59:

Babies with insufficient subscription ratio need to wait for two more days. I am really sorry that the second wife barely passed out from crying while hugging Miss Six. All the people who served Miss Six were punished that day. over and over.

But there is no way to recover.

The six girls were fished out of the lake by a man in a bright day, and their bodies were completely soaked. They were embraced by the man, skin to skin, and her reputation as a boudoir was long gone.

For the sake of the mansion's reputation, Miss Six had no choice but to marry that man.

The old lady had a dark face and scolded the first lady and the second lady.

Although she doesn't necessarily like to love Liu Yatou very much, she is also her granddaughter, a girl who was raised and raised in the mansion. What a shame!

If you are angry, you are angry, but things cannot be changed. The sixth girl is useless, and the old lady understands it very well.

There are still several unmarried girls in the mansion, and the sixth girl must not be burdened.

The old lady opened her mouth and made a final decision. There was no chance of turning back on this matter.

The second wife cried and cried and quarreled, but she still couldn't change anything, she could only accept her fate, and finally tried her best to comfort her daughter.

Just talking and talking, I feel sad again.

"Daughter, my poor daughter!"

The second lady looked at her daughter who had lost weight after lying on the bed for a few days, her eyes turned red, and she rushed over to hug her daughter.

Miss Six had been making a fuss for several days, and the whole yard was not peaceful. She was not a good-natured person, she was arrogant, how could she accept this.

That day, she was punished to contemplate the old lady's words in the room because she wanted her to figure it out and accept her fate.

I just didn't expect that the six girls not only didn't understand, but also didn't stop.

She felt extremely resentful, hated the old lady for being cruel and ruthless, blamed the second lady for her incompetence, and the one she hated the most was naturally fifth girl.

"Mother, I won't marry! I won't marry even if I die!" The sixth girl cried loudly in the arms of the second wife. He ran down, with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes, scurrying around the room, throwing everything he saw.

The second lady was angry and impatient, afraid of alarming the old lady Gu, she hurried over and pulled the sixth girl back, sat down on the edge of the bed, and said in a low voice: "My son! Mother's darling, you This is to make mother worry to death!"

It was still cold in April, Miss Liu went to the ground without her shoes on, the maids and mothers in the house were sent out early in the morning, and the second wife pulled the quilt over her by herself. It was originally to have a good talk with her daughter, but now she is so distressed that she scolds her.

Miss Six is ​​still crying, her voice has become hoarse after a few days of trouble.

After a while, she raised her head again and said sharply:

"Telling my daughter to marry such a shabby household is better than being hanged with a piece of white silk! If my mother really loves me, I shouldn't accept the old lady's words!"

"You, you... how did I give birth to you, such an evil!" The second lady was distressed and sad, and she couldn't bear to scold, and finally she just hugged someone and cried: "My miserable daughter!"

"It's all that **** Gu Qingwan! She hurt me, she pushed me into the water, you let her marry! Let her go! A lowly concubine is the most suitable match for a poor and shabby household! Let her marry!" /

Girl Aunt Six was crying hysterically, screaming hysterically.

How could the second wife not hate that pair of charming mother and daughter! It's just that those two are the flesh on the second master's heart, they are so tightly guarded that even she can't move them.

The fifth girl was also present at the incident of the sunset, so she might be the black hand behind that little bastard's hooves! But the second master only scolded Miss Six for not being dignified and causing trouble, and then lightly asked Miss Fifth to think about it in the room and let it go.

The second lady hated her so much that she almost killed the mother and daughter with her own hands.

Thinking about this, the mother and daughter couldn't help crying.

The matter cannot be delayed, and the rumors can be silenced by doing it as soon as possible. The old lady had a headache, so she waved a second-class nanny in the room to go to Li's house to "negotiate marriage".

The second wife knew that her daughter had no other way out. In the entire Hou Mansion, her daughter might be the only one who is so poorly married.

Under the pressure of Yi Baozi, the second lady cheered up. Everyone else was watching the joke openly and secretly, and she had to hold on no matter what. The second lady herself only had one son and one daughter, and now that her daughter has suffered such a big loss, the rest of her life will be ruined, so she wants to go all out to buy a dowry for her daughter, just to make up for it.

There are rules and regulations in the mansion, the dowry is two thousand taels of silver for a prostitute daughter, and one thousand taels for a concubine daughter. Of course, this is all on the surface. ability.

Miss Six is ​​the daughter of the second wife, who gave out two thousand taels from her husband. Mrs. Gu is somewhat sympathetic. Among the girls in the mansion, Miss Six is ​​the only one who is married so lowly. She is afraid that she will never see her again, so she subsidizes it privately. One thousand taels of silver, a set of golden noodles for butterflies and flowers, a box of Dongzhu, and a Zhuangzi and 200 acres of land.

Second Madam couldn't help but turn red when she saw this. Old Madam Gu is usually a person who doesn't care about her granddaughter. The three girls who were married before didn't see any subsidy from the old lady. Now she gave it to Miss Six. It's just poor.

Since it is a certainty and the marriage cannot be changed, the Second Madam will have to send someone to inquire about the Li family from beginning to end.

Really, the more you listen, the more heartbroken you become. It's just such a poor and poor family, what crimes did her daughter do in her previous life?

"I don't even have a tidy house! How can my son live!"

Several confidants and nuns consoled and said a lot of words, but they couldn't make the second lady look better.

The second wife can buy a house for her daughter to marry her, but there is also a big family over there, so it's impossible for her to follow her daughter in a mighty way?

She was panicked, and there was no reason to use her daughter's dowry to support the family.

Two and one thought again, if they were subsidized like this from the beginning, they were so talkative, they would feed their appetite carefully, and raise a nest of wolves, tigers and leopards. If that's the case, that's what hurt his daughter.

So, she only sent people to Li's house to "raise points", one of which was to buy a house that could be lived in.

Second Madam knew it well, she kept these things in her heart, and she was going to tell her daughter carefully.

Although the second master was disappointed that he wasted a daughter, he showed less pity and no sadness on his face. One thousand taels of silver bills, nothing besides, and Youyou unconsciously and shamelessly talking about adding makeup to the girl.

The second lady was so angry that her heart ached and she broke her nails!

She didn't care about face, so she made a fuss again, and just took out a shop from the second master and let it go.

When the second wife got married, the family lived well, and the dowry was generous. Among other things, there were eight prosperous shops and thousands of acres of land.

In the past, I planned to marry my daughter to the second shop and leave the others to my sons. After all, my daughter is married to someone else's family, and I have to rely on my son for the support, but now I have changed my mind.

She found out the land deeds for four shops in the east of the city, a three-entry house in Xiaoyan'er Hutong, a Zhuangzi, and 200 mu of paddy fields, and put them in a mahogany box separately. The land deed silver note given by the old lady and the house deed silver money from the second master were put in, and another two thousand taels of silver note was taken from her private house and put in it.

In this way, there are a total of four thousand taels of silver bills, five shops, four hundred acres of paddy fields, and two Zhuangzi households.

After ordering, lock it up and put it away. This is what is at the bottom of the box.

The two thousand taels from the business trip are used for dowry, which can be as large as a wedding bed for a wardrobe or a large cabinet, as small as dishes, teacups and so on.

Fortunately, the bed for marriage at the daughter's house was prepared from the age of eight or nine, so there was no need to hurry.

Following that, there were also people negotiating with the Li family, and the three letters and six ceremonies followed the procedure.

Which girl from the princely family of the government said that the marriage should not last for three to five years. From meeting to setting a date, she took her time one by one, so Yang seemed precious.

Only the relative of Miss Gu Liu, because she made the Gu family disgraceful, she was ashamed to prepare slowly, and the whole process was in a hurry.

…

The Li family sold half of their property, and moved a sum of money they had saved for many years before buying the next house, and hired someone to renovate and decorate it.

The original Li residence remains unchanged, with side doors opened on both sides, so you can take two steps from one side and enter from the other.

From the outer wall built on the side of Li's house to the other side of the back, the outer walls of the courtyards of the two houses were built together to form one house. pattern.

After everything was done and the paint was finished, Gu's mansion sent a group of servants to measure the room.

The sixth girl was almost confessed by her head, and the second wife tried her best to arrange the dowry for her daughter. In addition to the money and other belongings at the bottom of the box, there were also people who were going to take with her when she got married.

Originally, if there is no accident, the daughter of a family like the Gu family should marry a duke and earl's family who are well-matched, so the maids to be brought to accompany the house are very particular, and there are many ways.

Nowadays, the two beautiful maids she raised are no longer needed.

Those who must be brought along include the girl's nanny, two big maids who are close to her, and two sewing girls, two stove ladies, and two rough envoys.

Count it up, that's nine, because odd numbers are unlucky, so I added another errand girl to make up ten people.

This is still the result of accommodating the Li family's poor and small family, who have been reduced and reduced again and again, and those accompanying housewives are no longer needed.

The days passed quickly, like a white horse passing by, and it will soon be September.

Miss Gu Liu is not very old, not yet fifteen years old. Her birthday is at the end of the year, the twelfth lunar month. Because she is in a hurry to get married, she can only choose a date to move forward. A wedding ceremony was held.

The Li family bought a house, and the family resources have been exhausted long ago. There is not much left, so they can't swell their faces to pretend to be fat. The dowry was handled by the Bai family himself. In a low tone, he just reluctantly gave the dowry according to the specifications of ordinary people.

There is a load of gift cakes, the three animals are two chickens and ducks, two half pigs each, two tails of fish, and two packs of seafood, including abalone, yuan shell, sea cucumber, and dried shrimp.

Four-color pastries, two drawers of fruit, two drawers of wedding candy, and two catties of tea and sesame.

Two pairs of post boxes, which are full of lotus seeds, lilies, green wisps, red beans, peanuts, melon seeds, red dates, longan, dried walnut kernels.

A bucket of two meters, six catties of thread and noodles, and six jars of wine.

A pair of dragon and phoenix candles, a pair of incense sticks, a pair of ancestral paper, and a pair of dragon and phoenix firecrackers.

The last is a pair of live geese.

The bride price was set by Mrs. Li, but it was for her grandson's sake, and she was not as short-sighted as Bai's, so she gritted her teeth and put a lot of her own things in.

The old lady took a gold step shaker she got when she got married and melted it into a style that is popular in Beijing recently. She also ordered a pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets, a pair of silver bracelets, a silver comb, and a For the jade earrings, the last is a small box of pressed silver, ten taels to an ingot, and the snow-white ones are one hundred taels.

For ordinary people, this dowry gift is quite impressive.

Although Gu Qingci did not realize that she had become someone else's daughter-in-law, but with Mammy Zhang around her, she always taught and advised her softly, so she listened to it to some extent.

After getting angry on the day of offering tea, he obediently remained quiet for two days.

He took a breath, and then took some time to go to Mrs. Sun to make a confession.
