Seeing off a group of officials, the guests of the Lin family had a three-day banquet. Lin Huaide wore a royal blue official robe, a black gauze-winged hat, and a black jade belt around his waist. Flattery, a smug look on his bronzed face.

The old lady sat in the lobby with her family, looked outside, and asked worriedly: "Hui De doesn't even have an official office, so this official is fake?" She hasn't seen an official working at home yet!

Zhou also turned her attention to her sons worriedly, and now her sons are her backbone.Lin Zihao hurriedly said: "Father is dealing with a special matter. He receives people who inquire about farming at home, and his salary will still be paid. After three years, father will have to go to Beijing to take up a job." The old lady immediately said: " It’s better to be an official at home, and we don’t have to run around here and there.” Everyone in the hall grinned: Old lady, that’s not what they said.

Mrs. Liu led Lin Yun to sit there obediently, not daring to turn his butt around to show off.Hearing this, she rolled her eyes and said, "Mother-in-law, the second uncle will go to work in Beijing, can we also go?" She was like a mirror in her heart, Lin Huaide's family hated to know her, and they would definitely not let her family Unlike the old lady, as long as she agrees, it will definitely work.The second uncle's family is rich now, so they have to just hold on to it.

The old lady glanced at her: "No, your two families have already separated, what's the matter with you?" The four of Mrs. Zhou's mothers didn't speak, only Lin Yu couldn't hold her breath when she was young. glance.Mrs. Liu shook the pink handkerchief and said, "Grandmother, I can say anything, but two children can't do it! Ziwen has to have a good future, and Yun'er has to find a good husband's family!"

Lin Ziwen blushed so much that he lowered his head and pretended that he was not there. His mother was really thick-skinned.Lin Yun, on the other hand, was complacent, because her elder brother was in the care of her second uncle's family, so she didn't need to spend any money on the family, so she also followed Lin Yu's example and hired a little girl to wait on her. At this time, from the little girl behind her, After taking a bowl of tea, she drank it happily. Her mother had a way. She took a look and grabbed grandma. When she followed her into Beijing, she must find a husband who was older than the second uncle. their home.

Lin Zimo didn't want to vomit. This auntie is really calculating and knows how to use people's hearts. Sure enough, when it comes to grandsons and granddaughters, the old lady didn't speak for a long time. She glanced at Zhou's ugly face and didn't dare to agree: " It's still early, so let's talk about it then, and your family is just impatient." Seeing the old lady let go, she immediately laughed, and the □□ on her face "rusted" down, as long as the old lady's attitude is not tough, she will At that time, there will be a way to follow, and the child is her greatest weapon.

Zhou's mother was disgusted, but she couldn't say anything else, so she turned her head away from that face.Mrs. Liu said happily: "There is another happy event. The Lord Wang of the county sent a matchmaker to propose marriage to Ziwen yesterday. He said that as long as the marriage is completed, he will give his daughter 500 taels of silver as a dowry!"

The old lady frowned, and her eldest grandson's marriage was careless: "Which Mr. Wang? What do you do?" Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "Although it is a business, there are several shops. I heard that it brings in a lot of money every year!" The old lady He raised his eyes to look at his grandson: "Ziwen, what do you mean?" Lin Ziwen's face turned red and purple, and he said, "Mother ----- mother and grandma just watch."

Lin Zimo slapped his forehead, this honest boy, this is a major event for your marriage!Not even an opinion on this?According to the uncle's eyes, there will be no problem with the lobby sister-in-law, right?Another big aunt-like character, it's really lively.

The old lady instructed: "Don't look at whether you have money, you must look after the girl, inquire carefully about the family background, and don't make a hasty decision." Marry a rich daughter-in-law, what else?If you have a lot of money in your family, don't think about it.The married daughter-in-law doesn't care what kind of person she is, as long as she gets the money she brought, are you afraid that she won't be obedient?

Not long after Lin Huaiyi's family went back, they came back to report the good news. Lin Ziwen's wedding date was set on November [-]th of the lunar calendar.Pick the day of rest and mu.Lin Huaiyi's family rushed over and looked at Mrs. Liu, who was sitting in the hall, wearing a big red shirt and a big red flower on her head, spit flying, and Lin Huaide's family was speechless.

Lin Yun also put on the posture of the eldest lady, and ordered the maids in the family to turn around.Just as she was feeling overwhelmed, she heard Liu say again: "Everything else is ready, even if the house is rented, you need to prepare some dowry gifts." Lin Zimo almost fell down.Is this ready? "My family is the eldest brother's house of a sixth-rank official. If I live in a rented house, my second uncle will lose face. Don't you think so, mother-in-law?"

This is a trick to ask for money!The old lady didn't speak, and looked up at her second son. She also knew that the eldest son's family troubled the second son's family so many times. , but the old lady couldn't open her mouth, and asked the second son to help the eldest son's family.

Seeing that the old lady was in trouble, Lin Huaide secretly glanced at his wife and children.Faced with such shameless demands, Zhou has no choice but to really disobey her mother-in-law and husband, right?Pretending to bow his head, came out of sight and out of mind.

The brothers of the Lin family didn't have a problem with the honest cousin, but they were upset when they saw the aunt's face.If she asked for funding in an upright manner, it would not be so annoying, and the Lin family would be more comfortable with it.

There was no way, Lin Huaide bit the bullet and said: "What kind of house does the eldest brother and sister-in-law plan to buy? How much is it?" Lin Zimo knew it was broken when he heard his father's question.Sure enough, the uncle said happily: "Second uncle is still generous. I calculated it, and it will cost about 500 taels of silver." The uncle almost slipped under the table when he heard the words: "You woman is so bold, open your mouth for 500 taels, second brother Did the silver come from the strong wind?" Then he turned to Lin Huaide: "Don't listen to her, as long as you have the silver to buy a house."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the uncle's words were still human, Lin Zimo secretly calculated that it would cost about two hundred taels to buy a two-entry house in the county town, and with 100 taels of silver for the wedding, it would definitely be enough.Mrs. Liu is right in saying that if Lin Huaiyi's family's wedding is too cold, even his family's reputation will suffer. These days, when you become an official, you are most afraid of having a bad reputation. This is what the aunt's confidence is based on!

Without waiting for Mrs. Liu to speak again, Lin Zimo ordered: "Uncle Fu, go to the county seat to buy a two-entry house and give it to uncle, and then get 100 taels of cash." Cheap, all spent on the wedding.Lin Fu agreed, and paid 100 taels of silver in the account room, and handed it over to Lin Huaiyi. Lin Huaiyi was a little ashamed: "Second brother, this is your family's help to the elder brother's family, and I owe it to you."

Before she could finish speaking, Mrs. Liu grabbed the silver and laughed at "haha".Lin Zimo said unhurriedly: "This money is for the betrothal gift of the hall brother, the hall brother should be more careful, and don't spend it elsewhere." The faces of Liu Shi and Lin Yun immediately turned ugly, the two women had already made up their minds , when the money is in hand, the first one will buy some clothes and jewelry for the two of them. Now that Lin Zimo said so, Lin Ziwen must be concerned about the whereabouts of the money. In addition, the money for buying a house cannot be passed on. There is almost no money that can be spent on the two of them. up.

In the early morning of November [-]th, the Lin family got up. For convenience, even the Huang family lived in the house in the county seat the first day.

When I got there, around the fourth watch, Lin Ziwen was already dressed up.The bright red robe, the red flowers on the wings of the hat, and the red flowers tied on the chest, just like a big red envelope.

Lin Zimo smiled and helped with the work, and then went to pick up the bride together.The bride's family didn't see anything, but they were very smart and had a lot of dowry, a total of 24 sets, which was top-notch in the county.Everything went smoothly, and when the work was over, the family went back to the house in the county, waiting for tomorrow's recognition ceremony, and went home for three days to pay respects to the ancestral hall and ancestral tomb, and it was completely over.

As a result, when we went to Lin Huaiyi's house the next day, the atmosphere in the hall was very bad.Lin Huaiyi gave up his seat with an embarrassing smile, Liu's face drooped and said nothing, Lin Ziwen's face was also very gloomy, but the bride's face showed nothing, and she enthusiastically greeted everyone to sit down and sent the little girl to serve tea.

Huang's face was unhappy, and he asked: "What's the matter? It's early in the morning, and the big day has not passed, so don't be awkward." There was silence in the room for a while, and after a while, the bride Wang came forward and said : "It's all my fault, which made my mother-in-law angry." Liu jumped up "proudly": "It's your fault. Seeing how young you are, I asked you to give the dowry to me for safekeeping. If you don't give it, you have Are you so disobedient to your mother-in-law? "

Falling leaves could be heard in the hall for a while. I didn't expect Mrs. Liu to be so impatient. On the second day of their wedding, she asked for a dowry from her new daughter-in-law. It doesn't make sense.

Lin Zimo secretly took a look at the new wife-in-law, and saw that she was fair-skinned, with a square face, two slender eyebrows, a pair of slender eyes, thin lips, and a shrewd face.The uncle met her opponent this time, but she just doesn't know the nature of this sister-in-law?

Huang was trembling with anger. On the second day of the wedding, he snatched his daughter-in-law's dowry. It was rumored that someone would poke her back: "Master, I ask you. You have been at my house for more than twenty years. I ask you, but I Was it your dowry?" Mrs. Liu squeaked: "Isn't it this time and that time?" The old lady said angrily: "Your second brother's family has already funded the house and the dowry, so why are you short of money to make you like this?" Regardless of reputation?"

Liu whispered: "If you don't wear it out, others won't know about it." Lin Yun sat there, playing with the new pink silk shirt, and said in support: "That's right, she just doesn't want to give it, otherwise who would know?" Everyone was so angry that they couldn't laugh or cry, this pure deception!The old lady patted Wang's hand: "My good boy, the Lin family is sorry for you. Don't be afraid, no one can take away your dowry." You shouldn't say anything wrong with the old man." Her words made her eyes red with anger, and she couldn't say anything.

Lala Tata, I didn't finish my kiss until three shots in the sun.Both the old lady and Zhou's red envelopes were very large. The old lady gave a set of red gold jewelry prepared by the Lin family, and the Zhou family gave a full set of sterling silver jewelry. Lin Huaide directly gave 20 taels of silver.Lin Huaiyi and his wife were even more ugly. As a mother-in-law, Mrs. Liu gave her a gold hairpin, but the style was old, and it looked like a second-hand item from a search. Lin Huaiyi would die of silver, but it was only five taels.In this regard, Mrs. Liu still plausibly said: "Our family is no worse than your second uncle's family, and life is tighter." But looking at the golden hairpins shining on her and Lin Yun's heads, these words are too irritating.

On the third day, I went back to Linjia Village early, opened the ancestral hall, recorded the family tree, went to the grave, burned the paper, and announced that the ancestors had entered a bride, and the ceremony was considered complete.At this point, the Wang family officially became a member of the Lin family.
