Seeing so many girls coming out of the court, Wen Jiao herself has not been married for ten years, and her life can be said to be very happy. Now that the one who is about to get married is replaced by a girl raised by herself, her mood is no longer the same.

This time, Wen Jiao really understood why Lin Hai didn't like Lu Rong after Dai Yu's heart promised Lu Rong.

At that time, she subconsciously thought that Daiyu was just a child, and it was fine to fall in love, and it would take ten or eight years before she got married.

But Lin Hai is a native of the ancient times, and the 12-year-old girl is only three years away from Jiji, so how can he not be worried that his daughter will not be by his side in two years?

After suffering for a whole day, when there was no one around in the middle of the night, Wen Jiao and Lin Hai talked about what they were thinking about today, and the husband and wife once scolded Lu Rong and Liu Xianglian, two little bastards.

Wen Jiao has always admired Lu Rong and Liu Xianglian, but this time it's a big deal that he can't see his own girl. When he thinks about this, no matter how good a guy is, in Wen Jiao's heart, he will become a bastard, a bastard, a bastard.

Time flies, Wen Jiaosi thought that she would not be able to see Daiyu every day in a few years, and Daiyu has always been affectionate, and she has been writing letters to the sisters and friends who have been with her since she was a child, so she wrote to the Zhang family. I want to take Zhang Wanbei here to stay for a few days, and before returning to Beijing next year, I will ask their little sisters to get together again.

The Zhang family met Wen Jiao in Yangzhou.At that time, Zhang Zhizhe was the co-prefect of Yangzhou. Later, something happened to the Pan and Zhang families.

Although he was demoted, he changed from the magistrate of the government to the magistrate of the state, the second in command became the top in command, and he was even more capable of doing things.

In the past few years, Zhang Zhizhe has been very diligent in political affairs, and he already has quite a lot of political achievements. As soon as Su Wenzhe was promoted, the prefect of Yinwei was vacant, so Lin Hai recommended him to the Holy Majesty. Now Zhang Zhizhe has taken up the post in Yinwei, and finally it is a shame. .

Zhang Zhizhe's wife, Mrs. Feng, is the younger sister of General Feng in the uncle's residence in Qingyuan, Beijing. There are two girls and one boy in his family. His daughters, Zhang Wanyan and Zhang Wanbei, were very close to Daiyu when they were in Yangzhou. Zhang Wanyan entered the palace and became a female official. Yu and Zhang Wanbei have not lost contact, and even Wen Jiao and Mrs. Feng have sent a letter or two in a few months.

If it hadn't been for knowing that the Chinese New Year was approaching and the wives were busy, Wen Jiao would have directly invited Mrs. Feng over to catch up on the past, but unfortunately the day was not right, so he had to.

This time when I return to Beijing, I don't know if I won't see each other for five or ten years.

Zhang Wanbei was a five-year-old girl back then, with a round face and childish language, she pulled Daiyu's skirt and said her sister was pretty.

I haven't seen her in the past few years. She is also 12 years old, and she will be thirteen after the new year.

In Wen Jiao's letter to Yinwei, she said that both children would come to play for a few days, but she heard that Zhang Yonglun had been studying hard all these years, so she thought that only Wanbei would come.

But it wasn't just Zhang Wanbei who took over Lin An, Zhang Yonglun also came.Along with their brother and sister, there was also a generous gift from the Zhang family and a letter from Mrs. Feng.

The letter said that Yong Lun will be sixteen next year, but he has not yet entered school.If it is convenient for Wen Jiao to return to Beijing, please bring Yong Lun along with him. As long as he is selected as a scholar for his knowledge, there is a [-]% to [-]% chance that he will be able to go to the Imperial Academy.

Lin Hai took the time to test Zhang Yonglun, and came back and said: "The Zhang family is humble, Yonglun is a talented kid, and after one more subject, he will definitely win the exam."

Wen Jiao asked with a smile, "Ruhai has cherished talent again?"

Lin Hai thought for a while, then shook his head and sighed: "Forget it, the Zhang family and Feng family are not ordinary people, so it's not difficult. Besides, we should keep a low profile now, help those who can, and those who don't, just do our best."

Wen Jiao nodded.A few years ago, she still wanted to train Lin You to start a business and make money. Now that Lin Hai has been granted the title of Duke, the emperor has given him a lot of land, and the family can earn another ten thousand or twenty thousand a year.

His family is already an extremely powerful minister, and he is not short of money, so it is really not worthwhile to show off in order to earn more money.

Lin Hai has already told Lin You that when he returns to Beijing next year, he will be appointed Minister of the Household Department, so he will let Lin You go to the Household Department to be a small official.

The two children of Zhang's family are very popular, Wen Jiao asked the mother who followed Mrs. Feng, and the mother asked her to help find out the meaning of the marriage, very sincerely, Wen Jiao I really worried for a while.

While thinking about whose children in each family can match the two of him, Wen Jiao couldn't help thinking about his own children's marriage, so he would inevitably sigh with Lin Hai a few times.

But when it was only December, Wen Jiao felt that most of the anger in his heart had subsided when he received the betrothal gift list from Lu Rong and Liu Xianglian.

There was no other reason, the person who came to present the dowry in person was none other than Liu Xianglian who had just been promoted to be the commander of the fourth rank.

Moreover, Lu Rong's betrothal gift list and Liu Xianglian's betrothal gift list are more sincere than the other.

When the eunuch announced the decree on the first day of November and the first autumn, he also mentioned the rewards from the sage to Lin Hai-a thousand liang of gold, a hundred pieces of silk and satin, a number of various utensils, and a number of fields and villages.

Lin Hai and Lu Rong are both dukes, their titles are different, but the apparent rewards are not much different.Except for one more garden next to the Duke Linhai's mansion, the land and Zhuangzi are almost the same. The rest of the gold and silver, etc., Lu Rong got more gold ten thousand taels - Dayan never allowed the soldiers to burn, kill and loot. According to the distribution of merit, most of the merit will be obtained. If there is any private possession, it will be dealt with by military law.

The Lu family is not like the Lin family, but they are the heroes who founded the country, and they have several life savings. Except for the farm, the other things that the emperor rewarded are icing on the cake.

It has been less than a year since Lu Rong was promoted to the second and first ranks. To be honest, he probably hasn't even gotten used to receiving his salary yet.

According to Wenjiao's understanding of the Lu family, Lu Rong is now fully wealthy, and it is only these things that the emperor rewarded, plus [-] to [-] gold and silver.

But Lu Rong's betrothal gift list in Wen Jiao's hand was clearly written.

The betrothal gift and supplementary gift are several fixed gifts, worth about 2 taels of silver, and there is a male and a female pair of wild geese with smooth coats and very energetic.

In the betrothal gift that Liu Xianglian brought to Yinglian, there was also a pair of wild geese that were similar, and these four geese didn't have a single wound on their bodies.

Wen Jiao asked Liu Xianglian, and he knew that the goose lived in a specially-built warm car along the way, carefully watched by people, and was followed by a hunter who was good at raising geese, so he was in a good mood. Although he couldn't fly along the way, he could Because of not lacking in food and drink, I gained a lot of weight.

Generally, if the two families in a marriage are far apart, or the man does not know martial arts, it is not required that the man must send live geese.

Wild geese are alert by nature, and they are also migratory birds. They fly north in spring and fly south in autumn. To catch wild geese alive, you must have the right time, and those who are not wise and brave can't do it.Moreover, wild geese are living creatures, so it is difficult to deliver all the wild geese with their tails on the road.

Therefore, most people in the world use golden geese, silver geese or copper geese and wooden geese instead of live geese. When Lin Hai Wenjiao got married, what Lin Hai sent to the Su family was a pair of golden geese.

However, Lu Rong and Liu Xianglian both sent live geese. From Bohai to Ganzhou, the distance was more than a few thousand miles. The dowry sending team walked for two full months. In the cold winter months, the four geese were not damaged at all. You can see the sincerity.

So Wenjiao praised Liu Xianglian face to face, but he was embarrassed: "The younger generation only borrowed the light of the general to come here and deliver the live geese in person. I really can't afford such a compliment from my wife." .”

Wen Jiao smiled and said, "How many people are around Rong'er now? You are also a fourth-rank general. If you don't want to come, he can still send you to give a betrothal gift? I know you are all good boys, so why not praise me. "

After complimenting Liu Xianglian once, Wen Jiao asked again: "Are you in a hurry to go back when you come back now? If you are not in a hurry, the Chinese New Year is less than a month away. You might as well stay here and come back after the New Year." You have just won the battle, how can I make you travel to celebrate the New Year?"

Liu Xianglian was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "The war is over, there is no major event, the general ordered us to return to the camp before March next year."

Someone arranged for him to live with these soldiers, and arranged for someone to pack up the betrothal gift and send it to Daiyu Yinglian. There is nothing left on Rong'er."

"Being so sincere to Daiyu, I have nothing to say. Fortunately, our family prepares a lot of dowry for the girl. Otherwise, the dowry is not as good as the betrothal gift, then..."

Wen Jiao smiled, thinking that the dowry totaled 23, Daiyu's dowry was [-], and Jia Min's dowry was [-] to [-], adding up to [-]. When the two of them got married, Daiyu was richer than Rong'er too much.

With such beauty and respect, I'm afraid that the princess born in the Tian family is like this at most.

Lu Rong is a solid-eyed child, he really likes and loves Daiyu, and Daiyu is also fond of him.

Although the Bohai Sea is farther away, when you get there, everyone respects Daiyu, only people salute her, and there is no one who salutes her. You are free and the world is vast. Wouldn't it be much better than Beijing?

There must be gains and losses, and besides, children grow up day by day and always have their own lives.

Whether it is parents or children, it is impossible to accompany people for a lifetime.

They also feel more at ease with a reliable partner.

Wen Jiao gradually thought about it, and wanted to talk to Lin Hai, but Lin Hai snorted next to him, and only breathed out: "What do you mean? Throwing so much money at people, thinking that my Lin family is the one who waits to see money." Let alone 80 silver, even 800, we Yu'er can afford it!"

He was like this in the past, Wen Jiao would either ignore him, and he would agree with him during these days, but today is a day of great joy, Wen Jiao said with a smile: "There are no 80 children, only 800, take out all your wealth You are not happy. If you take less, you will be even more unhappy."

Lin Hai snorted again: "It's just that our family has money. If our family is not rich, how embarrassing will the woman's family be when he comes with a dowry of [-]? Is it a waste of money to give the girl a dowry, or is it better to return the dowry?"

Wen Jiao smiled and said: "Okay, you praised him a few times before, saying that he has clear eyes and a righteous heart. It's a happy thing, don't play childish temper today, just smile. Besides, Rong'er is so young at a young age. It wasn't someone who didn't know anything about being named a duke, he naturally gave it because he knew our family had it."

Unexpectedly, Lin Hai's eyes widened, and he asked, "Yue Niang, what is there in our family? Why did this kid Lu Rong bring you [-] silver and win you over? One mouthful and one Rong'er, you call our own son!" Not so affectionate!"

Hearing this, the smile on Wen Jiao's face faded, and imitating Lin Hai's tone, he sneered and said: "I am a girl, so naturally I can't compare with the scholarly family of the Duke of the country. .”

"Forget it, I didn't have that fate. Yuer Yinglian was engaged, and her son-in-law was sent with live geese, but I only had a pair of golden geese. The fate is not good, the family background is not good, but the girls in the family are all lucky."

"Knowing that my fate is bad, I don't expect anything else in my life. I only count on the filial piety of my daughter and son-in-law. At least don't call me helpless and caring."

After Wen Jiao said these words, without looking at Lin Hai, he got up and took the cloak from the shelf, and went out to the backyard.

Xiaomanguyu and other maids were waiting in the main room just now, they didn't know what happened inside, they only heard that the master and wife seemed to be arguing.

Seeing his wife lifted the curtain and left, the maids all looked at each other in blank dismay and hurried to follow.

God!Mrs. Master has been married for seven or eight years, and this is the first time seeing Mrs. and Mrs. angry!

Inside the room, Lin Hai was also stunned for a while, his expression changed from confusion to remorse, and finally he thumped the kang table hard, uttering an unpleasant swear word from his mouth.

The author has something to say:

coming!It's not too late today!
