Chapter 550
The other party came to hire him, but only Mrs. Beigong second came forward. This matter was too bad, and Mrs. Beigong didn't want to care. In the end, she asked Si Haochen and Mingruo to meet the Zou family with Mrs. Beigong second came.
Although there is no talk in three or four rooms, it is still OK to watch the fun. Hulala and a group of people went to the front yard living room, which looked quite like a famous family.
When he walked into the living room, he saw a woman wearing an indigo curved hem, a high bun on her head, a slightly prominent forehead and a high cheekbones, and a big-headed young man in a brocade robe.
Mingruo thought that Mr. Zou looked so creative. If he was an alien, he would look seven or eight out of his face.
The two of them also followed a short, fat woman with a big red flower on her head and a professional smile on her face. She should be a matchmaker invited by the Zou family.
"Mrs. In-law, I brought the official media to hire Shishi today." Mrs. Zou knew that she could marry the lady from the Beigong family, and she was very polite.
I should have proposed marriage first and then changed the Geng Tie before I gave the betrothal gift, but now that things have come to this, many processes can only be done together.
"Yes." Mrs. Beigong second responded with biting her back teeth.
The matchmaker raised his handkerchief and said with a smile: "The young master of the Zou family hired him to Miss Beigong..." The matchmaker's voice was melodious and gentle. Mingruo felt that this was the rhythm of the show, "Term two thousand silver coins, one hundred kilograms of cakes, ten kilograms of seafood, two pairs of chickens, two pairs of ducks, ten kilograms of pork, two tails of carp, four-color sugar, four-color fruit, tea, sesame, and 8 kilograms of glutinous rice...
Four pairs of dragon and phoenix candles, four hanging firecrackers, four pairs of red gold bracelets…”
Every time the matchmaker said, a servant would carry the things up. After a while, the living room was filled with baskets with the word "happiness", baskets, and chicken and duck cages. It looked a bit like a farmer's market.
Ming Ruo was full of curiosity. Is the betrothal gifts in ancient times so down-to-earth? Before, Si Haochen had dozens of boxes of pearls, agate, gold, stones and jade as betrothal gifts. Ming Ruo thought that the betrothal gifts in ancient times were so arrogant.
Don’t say that even the second wife of Beigong was a little confused. What kind of things are all here? The betrothal fee is only 2,000 silver coins? Moreover, families like them have no betrothal gifts to use chickens, ducks and pigs. They have hunted rare birds such as pheasants, geese, and deer. The matchmaker read a bunch of 77881, and the betrothal fee is no more than 3,000 silver coins.
The matchmaker put the gift list together and respectfully handed it to Mrs. Beigong Second.
Mrs. Beigong Er felt the pain in her forehead twitching and she winked at Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao took the gift list and nodded to the matchmaker.
After receiving the betrothal gift, Zou Shiming respectfully presented the "Constitution". Although he still didn't understand why he got along with Miss Beigong, he was still very satisfied with this marriage. Before, his mother asked him to marry his cousin to climb the Chunyu family and help him with the family. The Beigong family is no worse than the Chunyu family. Miss Beigong is even more beautiful. Compared with her cousin, she is like a fairy who came to earth from all over the world.
Xiao Tao took the "designation" from Zou Shiming. Zou Shiming looked up at Xiao Tao. This maid was beautiful and charming. It would be great if she could come with Miss Beigong's dowry.
The matchmaker saw that the Beigong family had received the "design" and then there was nothing left. She had to remind her, "Madam Beigong, please give me a 'reply'."
Mrs. Beigong's second wife has been in a state of silence since yesterday, and she never thought she would prepare for a 'reply'. She had to look at the 'Bigong Master': "'Langyue', please help Shishi write a 'reply'."
Si Haochen asked someone to take a pen and paper, wrote a "reply" and gave it to Mrs. Beigong Second Lady.
Mrs. Beigong Er pinched one end of the "reply" and the matchmaker pinched the other end. After waiting for a long time, she still couldn't let go.
The matchmaker secretly tried hard, pulled the 'reply' hand, and handed it to Mrs. Zou with a smile: "The writing has been completed, let's choose a 'good day' to get married."
The matchmaker pondered at the Geng Tie of the two: "Next month's eighth day and next May's second day, these two are excellent days."
Mrs. Beigong's second wife thought that her daughter would get married soon and let her master come back soon. But now, it's really time to set the eighth day of next month. It's only about twenty days, and the master doesn't have time to come back."
Mingruo received Si Haochen's eyes and whispered to Mrs. Beigong's second wife: "Second aunt, choose the eighth day of next month."
Mrs. Beigong Er didn't want her daughter to get married so soon. Although the dowry had been prepared long ago, the other things were not complete. Shishi was already wronged enough and she must have married in a grand manner.
Mrs. Beigong's second wife looked at Mingruo with a very bad look: "I'm too hurrying on the eighth day of next month."
Mingruo was not annoyed and lowered his voice and said, "If Shishi is pregnant, it will be time for her to give birth in May next year..."
The second wife of Beigong immediately exploded. She really didn't expect this. Shishi became a relative and raised her baby in the mansion. No one could say anything. If she had not passed the door, she would have a big belly, and the Beigong family would definitely not be able to withstand such things.
"Then let's go on the eighth day of next month." Mrs. Beigong had completely given up struggling.
"Okay." The matchmaker had already received the benefits of Mrs. Zou and had to promote this marriage early, so she said these two days.
The two families agreed on some things, and the Zou family went back with satisfaction.
Mrs. Beigong Er looked at the chicken, duck, pork, and glutinous rice in the living room and felt a headache, so she asked Xiao Tao to help her back and take a break.
This is the first time that Mr. Zhu has taken care of such a trivial betrothal gift, and I don’t know how to handle it: “Second Mrs., are these things moving to Fuxiyuan, right?”
"Delivery all the food in the kitchen, and the others will be moved to Fuxiyuan." Mrs. Beigong was so angry that she said, "I will give some of the cakes in each room, so let the rest be distributed to the servants."
"Yes." Butler Zhu received the instructions and quickly called the servant to move things.
During this movement, the originally quiet chickens and ducks suddenly shouted "ohohoh" and the whole living room was more like a big market in the countryside.
"Xiao Tao, help me back quickly." Mrs. Beigong's second wife was so aggravated that her head hurt even more.
The third and fourth wife saw that the second wife of Beigong had gone away, and they covered their mouths and laughed secretly. The second wife wanted to marry the legitimate daughter into the high school, but she didn't expect to get such a relative in-laws in the end. The betrothal money was only given two thousand silver coins. Even if they hired the concubine of the Beigong family, they would have got three thousand silver coins.
Ming Ruo and Si Haochen saw that the main owner had left and they had completed the task, so they also walked towards Qingqiuyuan.
"Why did you ask me to instigate the second wife to choose the 'eighth day of next month'?" Mingruo asked, pulling Si Haochen's sleeve.
"When did you ask your husband to urge her?" Si Haochen looked like a scoundrel who was "lost after using it."
