The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman

Chapter 128: Those Broken Things of the Four Great Families

If this happened in modern times, it wouldn't be a big problem.Isn't it just that the younger sister gets married before the older sister? This happens a lot in modern times!

But this is in ancient times, dear!

In ancient times, since childhood, we paid attention to an orderly seniority and a distinction between seniority and youth.

Generally speaking, the brothers and sisters above the head are not engaged, and the younger brothers and sisters below cannot be engaged, and even if they are engaged, when they are waiting to get married, they must come in order.Of course, there are exceptions under normal circumstances, that is, dragon and phoenix twins, especially the older ones who are boys. Generally, men in ancient times married later than women. If there are dragon and phoenix twins, in order not to delay the girls In the apricot period, I can only marry the girl first!

But obviously this case of Wang's family is not a special case, so it's annoyed to mess up the Jia's family!

The one who is even more superb is Jia Zheng.

Because the second daughter of the Wang family got married before the eldest daughter, the Jia family was not happy about it.But Jia Daishan is the true face of the Xue family, and he dare not offend him, and he is counting on the Xue family to reveal some gossip to him!Because of Jia Daishan's pressure, Mrs. Shi, Jia She, Zhang, and Jia Zheng all went!

It’s not that Jia Zheng doesn’t have his own little thoughts. If he’s really an upright gentleman, he wouldn’t squeeze his brother into a side room of Jia’s house in the original book, and live in Rongxitang openly. He will not make his brother's only son run errands for him, nor will he pretend that he is the head of the Rongguo Mansion, and he will not try his best to make his birth date unspeakable. Daughter, sent to the palace as a female historian.

This Jia Zheng also has his own little thoughts. He also went to see the second girl of the Wang family when the dowry was displayed, and he probably knew it in his heart.

It is because I know too much in my heart, so I will give you a moment under the root of the wedding.

Because the younger sister got married first, the older sister naturally couldn't stay at home for too long.Otherwise, the face of the two families will not be good.Therefore, the Wang and Jia families discussed the wedding on a closer wedding day!

You must know that the Xue family spent a lot of money in order to marry a girl from the Wang family. Not only did they help the Wang family pay off their losses, they gave a heavy gift when Wang Ziteng got married, and they also gave the Wang family 10 taels of silver in private. The dowry of the second girl of the Wang family said It was cleaned by the Wang family, but some of the valuable antique calligraphy and paintings inside were all given by the Xue family. Even the wood used for the dowry of the second girl of the Wang family was secretly sent to the Wang family by the Xue family early on. It is not ordinary wood, it is a century old above the mahogany.The Wang family doesn't have any.

When it comes to Miss Wang's house, it is naturally ordinary mahogany furniture, which is nothing, and it is also the best.Even if the daughter of Jia's family gets married, that's probably the case.After all, not everyone belongs to the princess or the princess, or the daughter of Lord Yansheng. What is carried out is all rosewood and huanghuali furniture.

Unexpectedly, this matter was revealed by Jia Zheng when the Wang family sent the dowry to the Jia family the day before the wedding, of course.Jia Zheng didn't know the origin of the wood for the second girl's dowry, he only knew that it was better than the older girl's, and the things in the dowry were more valuable than the older girl's.

As a result, this made the model Taoist who knew what he knew in his heart go crazy again!

You must know that since ancient times, since childhood, there was a difference between the elder and the younger, so the dowry of the eldest daughter and the second daughter are different, and the eldest daughter of the concubine is also a concubine.The dowry is also more than that of the concubine's daughter.

As a result, the Wang family came to make such a fuss. Didn't it mean that the Xue family has more status than the Jia family, which made the Wang family marry their daughter in such a hurry...

this.Where does this put Jia's family, and where does he put Jia Zheng's face.

Everyone knows that a scholar needs face the most. Even if Jia Zheng is a fake scholar, he still needs face as a scholar.Immediately, the face is pulled down!If Jia Daishan hadn't glared at him angrily, I'm afraid there would have been a riot on the spot!

This royal family is also a shrewd generation.There was no way to see the mood of Jia Zheng, a little white, it was just displayed on his face.

To say that the Wang family is also very depressed.

A normal marriage in this era is what both parties want, uh... at least it's what both parents want.Generally speaking, no matter how much dowry the man gives to the woman, the woman will add [-]% to the dowry of the girl and bring it back to the man. Twenty percent, almost double the return.

But not everyone is Yan Shenggong, and not everyone is the Lin family.Although the Lin family got a big advantage in the end, Jiang's previous dowry was not disrespectful. It was completely in accordance with the specifications of the Duke's marriage to a daughter, and even took into account the different status of Duke Yansheng. I also deliberately gave a few more priceless things in it.

Although Mrs. Shi was partial to Jia Zheng, she still didn't dare to make it too obvious when Jia Daishan was still there, so the dowry to the Wang family could only be given as the second son of the Rongguo Mansion.

Since you have done so, the Wang family will pay back the gift, and the dowry given to the eldest daughter of the Wang family will naturally be returned in accordance with the unspoken rules. The family packed almost all the big things, and the Wang family only gave out a wedding dress, just some fabrics. How much are these things worth? The Wang family still feels depressed!

Not to mention anything else, just saying that Jia Zheng's complexion was wrong, some smart people guessed that the two families were not happy with each other.Jia Daishan was so angry that he was half dead, and Jia Zheng was scolded severely at night, so that the whole family was not safe the night before the big wedding.After the Wang family went back, the whole family was also unhappy.

The next day, everyone was still sleepy. They forced a smile on their faces and finished the day's ceremony indiscriminately. Everyone just felt that they lost their airs. Why is this marriage so frustrating?Jia Zheng's marriage was full of twists and turns, although they finally got married, everyone was still worried, thinking about how the family would make trouble in the future.

It turned out that things were beyond everyone's expectations. The Jia family hadn't had much fuss yet, but the Wang and Jia families did it first!

Uh... You said that these two families are already married?Why are you making a fuss again!

The reason lies in Jia Min's marriage.

As mentioned earlier, Jia Daishan used his trump card against the Lin family for Ye Changmeng, but it was obvious that when Lin Chang's parents were both present, it was not Lin Chang's uncle who could do it alone, so he replied to Jia Daishan that he would write a letter Send it back to Suzhou to seek advice from the patriarch and Lin Chang's parents.

Jia Daishan also felt that this was more appropriate.So I agree!But in private, they think that the Lin family agrees to this matter 100%!Therefore, he devoted all his energy to Jia Zheng's marriage. This Jia Daishan is really capable, so when Wang Jia's family made a small settlement, the Lin family in Suzhou wrote a letter saying that they agreed to the marriage. .

It stands to reason that since the patriarch of Suzhou and Lin Chang's parents agreed!After Jia Zheng's marriage has been settled, Jia Min's marriage can also be settled and engaged!Moreover, according to Jia Daishan's temperament, he hoped that the marriage between the Lin family and the Jia family would be brought to light as soon as possible!

However, although Lin Chang has some cousins ​​and sisters-in-law of the same family in the capital, they are not of high status. After all, Jia's family is still the face of the Duke's Mansion!Therefore, this matter was sought by the Jiang family, as the female elder with the highest seniority of the Lin family in the capital.Jiang did not refuse.Jia Daishan saw that Lin Chang was about to let the Jiang family come forward, and he felt that it would be more face-saving, so he didn't have any objections.

But at that time, Lin Hai's family was busy preparing a grand crown ceremony for Lin Hai.In addition, Jia Zheng was engaged to Jia's family, and he couldn't give others the impression that the children of Jia's family couldn't wait to get married, so the two families discussed and waited for Lin Hai's crowning ceremony to be completed before Jiang went to Jia's house to make a decision. .

But this is all based on the fact that Jia Daishan didn't know about the marriage between the Wang family and the Xue family, and was waiting for the second girl of the Wang family to have something happen.He couldn't wait to marry the second girl first, the Jia family had no way out, so they could only put Jia Min's affairs aside, and wanted to settle Jia Zheng's marriage!

Therefore, the marriage between the Wang and Jia families was completed at a rocket-like speed that made everyone's jaw drop.

Wait until the Jia family's affairs are finished.The Lin family's affairs were similar, so Jiang found a good day to talk to Jia's family, and went to Jia's family to make a decision with the betrothal gift that Lin Hai had interrupted!

At this time, the eldest daughter of the Wang family has become the second grandmother of the Jia family.For the big event that the little sister has decided, as her natal family, the Wang family must come to congratulate her.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong!

Lin Chang's father is indeed only a low-rank official, but he can't stand the fact that the Lin family is a scholarly family that has lasted from the Tang Dynasty to the present. In addition, Lin Chang's family is only a single seedling of him, so Lin Chang's father took it out of the warehouse. Many treasures handed down from the ancestors were given to Lin Chang as dowry gifts.

If it is according to what Jiang has packed up before.That must be shabby in the eyes of the upstarts of the Jia family and Wang family!But after being interrupted by Lin Hai, Jiang replaced some priceless calligraphy and paintings with vulgar ones.Added a lot of dazzling jewelry.Those jewels were all made by the Jiang family from his own home, and they were all laid out not long ago, so the color and style are all new, and the gems on them, under the sunshine, can dazzle people's eyes .

Especially the pair of Jun porcelain beauty vases from Yuzhou. This pair of beauty vases is the best among Jun porcelains. The colors are gorgeous and colorful, like fireworks, changing endlessly. They are very characteristic of Jun porcelain. Mrs. Shi's mouth is almost drooling. (Jiang looked down on Mrs. Shi very much)!You must know that almost all of these things are used for offerings. In ordinary homes, even top-grade ones are not available, let alone this is the top-grade Jun porcelain beauty bottle.

Mrs. Shi was still a little worried before. Jia Daishan lied to her about Lin Chang's rich family, but now she saw such a big deal, and the dowry was completely in accordance with the specifications for the marriage of the first daughter of the Duke's Mansion.In addition, seeing the envious and jealous eyes in other people's eyes, I couldn't help but feel less conflicted about this marriage in my heart, and the words I said were also very pleasant.

But Mrs. Shi is not estranged anymore, but someone is estranged in her heart!
