Time Traveling: The Little Hou Ye is the Head of the House

Seeing Mrs. Li's face, Mrs. Li was also a little worried: "Does it matter? Are you okay?" He hurried forward.Although he was angry in his heart, after all, he had been a husband and wife for most of his life, how could he still be angry with her.

Mrs. Li grabbed Mrs. Li's hand: "I know you are angry with me. You should be angry with Brother Kai and I should be angry, but Yuan Cheng is innocent. He is a big man and he knelt down to apologize to Brother Luo." , What do you think he was wrong about?"

Old Master Li was surprised and looked at Li Luo.Is this really kneeling down and apologizing?

Mrs. Li Yang couldn't understand Mrs. Li's behavior, so she said that she knelt down to apologize, didn't she want to indirectly say that Li Luomu was disrespectful?So she said: "Luo Geer, what's going on?"

Li Luo said obediently: "I don't know about returning to my mother. Uncle Yuan suddenly knelt down for me. He said that Young Master Yuan kidnapped me. It was too vicious. Young Master Yuan was wrong about this matter, but Young Master Yuan has already He is the only one who can apologize to me as a father. How dare I make Uncle Yuan kneel down to me? Even though I am a holy marquis, accepting Uncle Yuan’s kneeling is also a courtesy. But after all, Uncle Yuan is the old lady’s relative. Son, I also have to show face to the old lady, so I asked him to get up immediately."

The old lady's own son, everyone heard it strangely, and it succeeded in making old master Li angry again.

Li Luo went on to say: "Then the old lady mentioned that we would reconcile if we had lunch together. I thought that my grandfather, uncle and others were also worried about my safety, so I mentioned calling everyone to have a meal together."

"Brother Luo still has a heart." Li Hui's daughter-in-law said, "I know we are all worried, so let us rest assured."

"It's my fault that I dare to worry my aunt." Li Luo hurriedly said again.

"Look at what you said, our brother Luo is sensible, no wonder the Holy Majesty and King Qi both like it." Li Hui's daughter-in-law has already seen the situation in front of her clearly. Li Luo is now the future Princess Qi, regardless of whether he is Longyang or not. Yes, a marriage bestowed by the Holy One is a good marriage, and she must hug Li Luo's thigh.

Moreover, Li Man's injury was caused by the imperial physician he had hired, and to be a man is to be aware of current affairs.

"Speaking of this matter, I also have something to announce today." Li Luo looked at Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li, "How is the old lady? For example, please ask the doctor to take a look, and then we can talk after lunch? "

"No need." Mrs. Li waved her hand, "Let's eat, the doctor said, as long as I don't get angry with me, I'll be fine." This was intentional, as if accusing everyone of being unfilial.

However, no one answered her.She glared at Li Hao's wife, who quickly supported her and said, "It's the children who are not filial and always make the old lady angry."

Only now did Mrs. Li have a step, and a group of people went to the restaurant to eat together.

Li Hui and his wife, Li Man, the big house of the Li family.

Li Yang, Li Luo, Li Hong, Li Lin, the second room of the Li family.

Li Hao's daughter-in-law, Li Yun, Li Run, and Li You are the third house of the Li family.

Although Li Chi and Li Zhou haven't released their rankings yet, the Guozijian still has to attend classes, and Li Chao attends classes in the Li family's school.So, besides Mrs. Li and Li Hui, these are the only people who are at home.

Because of Yuan Cheng's presence, the meal was very quiet.During this period, Li Hui's daughter-in-law chatted with Li Yang blatantly: "Second brother and sister, brother Hong and Ming Jie'er are getting married in December, have you prepared the dowry?"

There are still three months to go, and although Li Yang is prepared for Li Hong's dowry, she is still not sure.Li Hong is the eldest son of the Hou family. If the scale of the previous sons is used, the dowry gift of 3 taels of silver is indispensable, but the embarrassing thing is that Li Hong is not the eldest son, but the eldest son with defective feet. Naturally, Li Yang does not want to I have wronged my son, but if I give a dowry of [-] yuan, I will lose my mouth.

"My sister-in-law has experience before, how much dowry do you think is appropriate?" Li Yang asked.

"Previously Wen Geer's betrothal gift was given by the public. At that time, my mother prepared a betrothal gift of 600 taels of silver."Although the public had prepared six thousand six, Li Wen's daughter-in-law's family was not as good as Ming Jie'er.Moreover, Li Hui's fourth-rank official's salary of 50 taels of silver per month and 600 taels of silver a year was also handed over to the public.The court of the fourth-rank official returned 700 mu of fertile land to Li Hui. Although the title deed of the 700 mu of fertile land was in Li Hui's hands, the rented income was given to Gongzhong.The location of the good land issued by the imperial court is not very good, and it is not in the capital, so the rent for 700 mu is about 300 taels of silver a year.

In this way, Li Hui handed over 1000 taels of silver to Gongzhong every year.

Let’s look at Li Hui’s family again. Li Wen is an official in another place, and his official business doesn’t pay any money. The clothes and accessories of the women’s family in Li’s family add up to 200 taels of silver a year. Some, about 150 taels of silver throughout the year, and about 700 taels a year for the second room.Then Li Hui posted 300 taels of silver to Gongzhong every year.

Although the dowry gift of 600 taels for the son of a fourth-rank official to marry a daughter-in-law is still considered on the table, but the 600 taels is also a superficial account, but none of them are actually given out.For example, some useless calligraphy and paintings are calculated according to the market price...

"Brother Wen and Brother Hong are different after all." Mrs. Li didn't like Li Hui's daughter-in-law's way of acting, and she spoke with open and secret sarcasm, "Although Brother Wen is the eldest son of the eldest son, but the eldest son is the eldest son of the eldest son. He was born of a concubine, Brother Hong is the eldest son of the Hou family."

Li Hui had a smile on his face, as if what Mrs. Li said was not about him.

After all, Mrs. Li is also a concubine. Maybe Mrs. Li told Mrs. Li on purpose.However, as a bastard, Mrs. Li's property was still rich at that time.

2000 taels of silver, 100 acres of fertile land, two shops, and a house with three entrances and three exits.Mrs. Zhong Guogong was really kind.This does not include the dowry gift from his official business when he got married.

"Since that's the case, elder brother will follow the style of the eldest son of the Hou family." Li Luo said.

"Ah?" Everyone looked at Li Luo.

Old Madam Li smiled and said: "Our Brother Luo is still young and hasn't married yet, so I don't know how much money is needed to get married. If Brother Hong behaves like the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, you and Sister Lin will naturally have a lot to do in the future." gone."

"According to the eldest son of the Hou family, we don't have so much silver in the Hou family." Li Yang said.

"How much dowry do you need for the eldest son of the Hou family?" Li Luo asked.

"Back then, we prepared a dowry gift of 2 taels of silver for the eldest son of the Qingbo mansion when he married his daughter-in-law. Although Brother Hong is not the eldest son, the Hou's mansion is bigger than the earl's mansion after all. For the eldest son, 2 taels should not be less." Mrs. Li road.She's telling the truth.

But Li Yangshi was not willing to spend so much, because she still had to consider Li Lin.

Seeing Li Yang's silence, Mrs. Li was very happy. The Hou Mansion only had money when Li Xu was a Marquis. Li Xu was only a Marquis for six years and died for four years. How much money did she have in the Hou Mansion? Don't know, but not much.Besides, when Li Hong married a daughter-in-law, the Li family's father-in-law was not going to marry her.

"Mother, how much money does our Duke Hou have?" Li Luo asked.In front of everyone, I don't know why he asked such a question.

"When your father was made a Marquis, the Holy One rewarded him with a thousand acres of meritorious land and 5000 taels of silver." The 5000 taels of silver were given when they moved into the Hou's mansion. Li Xu discussed it with the Holy Majesty, lest Mrs. Li make up his mind. "There are also some jewels and a sword." In fact, there are not many rewards.

"Your father is a first-rank general, and His Majesty rewarded 1200 mu of fertile land with a salary of one thousand taels of silver a year." Li Yang said again, "The thousand mu of meritorious land is managed by myself, and the income and expenditure have been balanced in the past two years. .1200 mu of fertile land was rented out at a price of 5000 taels a year. All the money in the business can only be combined to make up [-] taels.” What Li Yang said was true, she was a frugal person, and Li Xu’s salary for the previous two years Enough for the Hou family's expenses.Therefore, she kept all the silver rewarded by the sage and the rented out fertile land.

Her family was poor, and when she got married, the only good-looking thing was a Zhuangzi, which was bought by her mother gritted her teeth.As for the others, they were secretly given to her by Li Xu before the marriage.

Thinking of this, Li Yang's heart was sweet and a little sad.The man she thought she could rely on for the rest of her life is dead

Of course, besides 5000 taels, Li Yang also has a private house, but it is only more than [-] taels, and he has kept it for so many years.She was okay back then, but not so good at running the shop.

"Mother gave me a thousand acres of meritorious land." Li Luo said, he was worried about running out of land for a thousand acres of meritorious land. "I will fill in 5000 taels for my mother here, and the elder brother's dowry is enough to make up 2 taels worth of property."

The 2 taels mentioned in the dowry gift is not 2 taels of silver, but the sum of all the items in the dowry gift, which is worth 2 taels.

"Brother Luo?" Li Yang was taken aback.

Not to mention Li Yangshi, even the others were shocked. The younger brother prepared a dowry gift of 5000 taels of silver for the eldest brother, which is really a big deal.What's more, this brother is only five years old.

"Our brother Luo is still a God of Wealth." Mrs. Li's words were sour, "The price is 5000 taels, but there is no reason for the elder brother to let the younger brother take the money when he gets married."

"It doesn't matter, fight the tiger brother, father and son soldiers. The second room is only our two brothers, so naturally we have to help." Li Luo said this intentionally for everyone to hear.

Mrs. Li was unhappy in her heart, but it was not appropriate to put it on the surface and say: "Sister Lin, she is 16 years old, is the second daughter-in-law too picky, and she will be a big girl if she goes down."

Li Lin's face turned pale.If you don't get married by the age of 16, you will be gossiped.What Mrs. Li said that seemed to be concerned was actually intentional, and everyone knew it very well.
