The Red Chamber: My Stunning Confidante with a Variety of Styles
Chapter 224 Fiancee
Zhongjinghou Mansion.
Shi Ding sighed sadly: "This good thing, why is it gone!"
Before the matchmaker told about Shi Xiangyun's marriage, he and his wife deliberately facilitated it. After all, the Wei family is also a royal and noble family, and they thought that Shi Xiangyun would not suffer hardship when he married.The Wei family was also very concerned about this matter, and immediately sent someone to deliver an engagement gift.
But who knows that Jia Jue actually opposed the marriage. After discussing with Jia's mother, he decided to follow Jia Jue's suggestion and cancel the marriage.
The attitude of the Wei family is good, as long as he returns the gift he gave back.
But here lies the problem, the gifts from the Wei family were originally placed in the Shi family.But when he wanted to return it, he was shocked to find that those gifts had disappeared.
When the Wei family sent someone to ask for it, he couldn't give anything back to the Wei family.
The Wei family proposed to pay the equivalent amount of silver.
This made Shi Ding heave a sigh of relief, but when he asked about the value, the other party directly said a number that stunned Shi Ding.
One hundred thousand!
For the poorer historians, this is tantamount to astronomical figures.
Of course Shi Ding refused to accept the debt, and when he came and went, the two parties had a conflict. Just now, the manager who came to ask for the account threatened to use Shi Xiangyun to pay off the debt.
"This Wei family is clearly blackmailing us on purpose!" His wife, Shen Shi, also said angrily.
Shi Ding's face was full of despondency: "Even knowing this, what can we do? Everything is gone, no matter what he says, there is no proof. The hateful thing is that even the gift list has disappeared together! Really! Hateful and annoying."
Shen pondered for a while, then suddenly said: "If you want me to say, this matter should be handed over to Jia Jue."
Shi Ding shook his head quickly: "How can I leave the things I'm waiting for to others."
"How can he be someone else? Didn't this matter happen because of him? If he didn't want to, how could we withdraw the marriage? If we don't withdraw the marriage, where did this thing come from?" Shen said.
Shi Ding shook his head: "This remark is inappropriate. Judging from this matter alone, Brother Jue is right. This Wei family is definitely not a good one. If Xiangyun marries in the past, he may suffer some kind of hardship."
"But I'm the one who's suffering right now, 10 taels of silver! How can I raise it?" Shen complained, "Then if Jia Jue wants to marry Miss Yun, he should take it on."
"Auntie!" At this moment, a voice sounded from the door.
Shi Ding and the two looked at the prestige, but saw Shi Xiangyun standing at the door with a face full of shame, and standing beside him was Jia Jue.
"Brother Jue...you, why are you here, come in quickly." Shi Ding welcomed Jia Jue in with a face full of embarrassment.
"Sister Yun is going back home. I saw it was getting late, so I sent her back." Jia Jue replied.
"Oh, hehe, there is Brother Lao Jue." Shi Ding smiled dryly.
Shi Xiangyun walked into the room and told Shi Ding and his wife what happened just now.
Shi Ding was furious when he heard the words: "These bastards are really lawless!"
But after being angry, he was a little sad. His majestic Marquis was being humiliated to this point, which really made him extremely uncomfortable.
"Uncle, you need to be careful, I'm afraid they will come again." Jia Jue said.
Shi Ding said angrily: "If they dare to come, I will fight with them!"
Jia Jue shook his head: "Uncle, calm down, it's not worth waiting for such a night."
Shi Ding sighed, and said to Jia Jue, "Brother Jue, this time is thanks to you, if it wasn't for you, Xiangyun would have..."
He also knew that if Shi Xiangyun was taken away by them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Shi Xiangyun also looked at Jia Jue with grateful eyes when he heard the words, Jia Jue was indeed protecting her.
Jia Jue asked Shi Ding, "Why is Uncle so anxious to take Sister Yun home?"
"This..." Shi Ding hesitated when he heard the words.
But Shen said: "Wei's gift was lost, and the mansion has no money to pay for it, so I called her back to make some female celebrities."
The conditions of the historians are not good, and they often rely on the needlework of the female relatives to supplement the family income. This is why Shi Xiangyun cannot afford to hire a host in Jia's mansion.
Jia Jue glanced at her: "Aunt just said 10 taels of silver?"
Shen Shi was about to speak, but Shi Ding coughed, as if to remind her not to talk too much.
Shen glared at him: "There is nothing to say, this matter must be known to Brother Jue."
Immediately, he told all the ins and outs of the matter.
Shi Xiangyun's face turned pale when he heard that, how could they get 10 taels of silver, let alone 10 taels, even 1 taels would be extremely difficult.
Jia Jue pondered for a while, and said to Shi Ding: "Uncle, Auntie is right, this matter is indeed caused by me, and I shall bear it."
Shi Ding quickly shook his head: "Brother Jue, that's just her angry words, you don't have to take it seriously."
However, Shen gave him a sideways look: "I don't know how brother Jue will bear it? 10 taels is not a small sum."
Although Jia Jue became the family, it was the property of the entire Jia family, not his own.
She really didn't think Jia Jue could come up with the money. The so-called burden was nothing more than going to Wei's house to argue.
But just when she thought so, she saw Jia Jue took out a bulging purse from her arms and handed it to Shi Ding.
"Brother Jue, what is this?" Shi Ding took it, and opened the purse to look, only to find that it was full of large banknotes.
"This is 10 taels of silver." Jia Jue said lightly.
Several people in the field were shocked, Shi Ding said quickly: "Brother Jue, I can't accept this money!"
With that said, he was about to return the purse to Jia Jue.
But at this moment, Shen Shi stretched out her hand and snatched the purse from him.
She looked at the bank note, and said to Jia Jue with a smile on her face, "I can accept it! I can accept it! With this money, even if Mrs. Wei comes to the door again, we have nothing to fear! Brother Jue is really capable, this silver said Just take it!"
Seeing the money, she forgot what she thought about Jia Jue just now.
Jia Jue shook her head at her: "Auntie, don't make a mistake, this money is not for the Wei family, but for uncle and aunt to live. I will deal with the Wei family's affairs separately."
When everyone heard this, Qi Qi was stunned again. They didn't expect that Jia Jue would give them 10 taels of silver.
In fact, Jia Jue would give them this money. On the one hand, he wanted to improve Shi Xiangyun's situation, and on the other hand, he wanted to repay Jia Mu. The Shi family is Jia Mu's natal family. up.
In the end, it was because this matter really happened because of him, and the Wei family's tactics against the historian should be aimed at him.
Of course, the historians would not have thought of so much.
"Third brother, no, we can't take this money." Shi Xiangyun shook his head hastily.
Shen Shi glanced at Jia Jue, then at Shi Xiangyun beside him, and suddenly laughed:
"I understand! This silver is your betrothal gift. Well, we have agreed on this matter! This marriage is settled! Yun girl is your fiancee."
Yeah!
Shi Xiangyun let out a coquettish cry when he heard the words, and ran away quickly with a blushing face.
Jia Jue looked at Shen shi in a daze, is this a deal?
I didn't say anything, okay?
Is it so sloppy?
Shi Ding sighed sadly: "This good thing, why is it gone!"
