"Hey, second brother, second sister-in-law, our family is not as poor as it used to be, look at what we are wearing..."
While showing off, Shen Xiuyun pulled her skirt to show Shen Dejian and Mu Shi.
At this time, she was wearing a brand-new satin beige, with gaudy colors and poor texture, and even the workmanship was so rough that I couldn't bear to look directly at it.
However, Shen Xiuyun didn't realize it, and still showed it to Shen Dejian and his wife proudly, "Look at this hairpin on my head, I bought it in a silver building, or it's gold, and my pair Big silver bracelets, each weighing two or two, will be left to my daughter-in-law in the future."
While talking, Shen Xiuyun looked at Ju'er eagerly.
Ju'er was sitting beside her parents, looking at the clown-like elder aunt, she didn't know what to say to her.
As for the low-grade satin bezel she was wearing, plus her two big and thick jewelry, the sum of them is not worth as much as the pair of small diamond earrings on her ears, okay? I really don't know what she has to show off? Seeing how superficial she is, Ju'er is also drunk!
Look at the big aunt's side again, the big uncle and Wang Baogen are sitting in the same brand-new clothes, the two men are also wearing robes cut from inferior silk and satin, imitating the appearance of the rich in the city, with their backs straight Yes, it looks like a zombie, with a somewhat proud look on its face, it looks very interesting.
Seeing their family, Ju'er's first thought was to laugh, but she couldn't laugh out of politeness, so she had to hold back.
Shen Dejian and Mu's family wanted to laugh when they saw the behavior of Shen Xiuyun's family, but like Ju'er, they didn't have the nerve to laugh at them, so they endured it and continued talking to them.
"Well, it's pretty good. It seems that your business in Qingzhou is doing well." Mu Shi politely perfunctory.
When it came to the business in Qingzhou, Shen Xiuyun felt as if she had been beaten into a chicken blood, and she became excited, and said with joy, "The business in Qingzhou is not doing well. Basically, the door is open every day from morning to night. It’s closing time, there’s a lot of buying, and there’s a lot of wholesale sales for young and old. Our family now earns several taels of silver every day. If someone’s daughter marries into my house in the future, she’s guaranteed to be popular and spicy. No hunger or cold, really, our family is rich now, it’s not the same as before... "
Shen Xiuyun is a daughter-in-law who never leaves her words, she is as smart as Mu's, and she immediately thinks what Shen Xiuyun is thinking.
However, Shen Xiuyun's thinking was in vain, even if she took advantage of the golden mountains and silver mountains, she would never marry her daughter to a coward like Wang Baogen.
It's not that she wants to marry a woman to the rich and noble, but because she doesn't like Shen Xiuyun and his wife at all. People like them can't raise any good children. Ju'er is her heart. Darling, she couldn't bear to marry her daughter to that kind of family.
Under Shen Xiuyun's repeated reminders, Shen Dejian was also vaguely aware of what the couple wanted to do, and couldn't help but be surprised by the cheekiness of the couple.
Just like Wang Baogen, who is not worthy to carry Ju'er's shoes, what are they thinking? How dare they want to marry Ju'er
Both Shen Dejian and Mu's face darkened, and their tone became cold. I hope that Shen Xiuyun and his wife can see their attitude, retreat in spite of difficulties, and stop dreaming about Spring and Autumn.
Burning Goose, letting Wang Baogen marry Ju'er is a wish that their family has been thinking about for more than a year, and it is also their hope for prosperity and wealth in the future. How could they give up because of the indifferent attitude of the second brother and sister-in-law
Sure enough, after chatting for a few words, Shen Xiuyun opened her mouth with a big face: "Hehe, second brother, second sister-in-law, you see, our family is living well now, and the only one we have is Baogen Single root seedling, in the future, we will leave him with the money we both earn, so it won’t be a disadvantage if any girl marries into our family. However, we Baogen have a high vision, and he doesn’t like ordinary girls. If you look left and right, you'll see our family, Ju'er. I'm Ju'er's real aunt, and I don't have a daughter. If we kiss each other more closely, isn't it better than letting the child marry into someone who doesn't know anything about it? Besides..."
Before she could "talk" any further, Mrs. Mu interrupted her with a cold face, and said, "Xiuyun, Ju'er is still young, I want to keep her for a few more years, besides, she is not suitable for Baogen, you should find her." Propose marriage to a girl who is suitable for Baogen."
"Why isn't it suitable? They are about the same age, and they are aunts and uncles. What a match, let me tell you, they are a match made in heaven?" Shen Xiuyun retorted.
Wang Wanfu also said: "Sister-in-law wants to stay with Ju'er for a few more years, it's okay, anyway, they are not old now, let them get married first, and they will get married in a few years later, don't be afraid of being late for a good meal!"
Ju'er blushed with anger when she heard this, she, who was delicate and weak and never did evil to others, stomped her feet uncharacteristically, and said angrily: "I am not a good match for him, stop dreaming! After finishing speaking, he turned around and ran back to his room, closing the door behind him.
Shen Ruolan lived in the innermost room, and she was sitting on the kang in the inner room to play with the children, when she saw her sister running back to the house in a panic, her face was flushed, she hugged and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Who is angry with our second lady? Why are you so angry?"
Ju'er said angrily: "It's not my aunt and uncle who told my parents just now that they want me to marry Wang Baogen of their family, I'm so mad!"
Ju'er was still young and couldn't hold her breath. Thinking of what happened just now, she was so angry that she shed tears.
Shen Ruolan smiled and said: "Look at you, you are a child after all, even this little thing can make you cry, our parents don't really want to marry you to that wretch, why are you angry? Two days ago, the county magistrate came to propose marriage for his son, why don't you get so angry?"
What Shen Ruolan was talking about happened a few days ago. About seven or eight days ago, the magistrate of Nong'an County brought his wife to greet Concubine Zhan. During the greeting, he accidentally saw Ju'er, who was born beautiful and behaved Dignified, very satisfied in their hearts, the couple discussed it and entrusted Shen Debao to be a matchmaker to hire Ju'er for their son.
Their son is eighteen years old this year. He is handsome and gentle. He is a young and promising boy. Last year, he passed the examination of scholar. The county magistrate has always been proud of it. A career.
Because they value this son, his marriage has not been settled. Both the magistrate and his wife think that their son is too good, and no one's daughter is worthy of him. They pick and choose, but Ju'er is the first one they fall in love with. What about the girl with eyes!
It's a pity that although they fell in love with Ju'er, Shen Dejian and Mu's family didn't want to get engaged to Ju'er so early. They said that a daughter-in-law in heaven is not as good as a girl in hell. Ju'er suffered a lot when she was young, and they were reluctant to let her marry so early. I also want to stay a few more years so that she can enjoy a few more years of happiness at home.
Therefore, he politely rejected the magistrate's kindness and sent them away politely.
When Shen Xiuyun and his wife found out about the magistrate's proposal, they were afraid that Ju'er would be snatched away by others, so they rushed back from Qingzhou in a hurry and dressed up before coming to propose.
It's just that they didn't expect Liuhua to be interested and Liushui to be ruthless. Even though they liked Ju'er very much, Ju'er didn't like Wang Baogen at all.
"Sister, this is different, that Wang Baogen is too aggressive!" Thinking of Wang Baogen's behavior just now, Ju'er couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Shen Ruolan said with a smile: "It's his business that he hates people, why are you angry? Parents won't really marry you to him. Is it worth it to be angry with yourself for such a person?"
Ju'er also knew it wasn't worth it, but she just couldn't help getting angry, maybe because she was still too young and couldn't handle her emotions well. "Fangzheng, I just annoy them and don't want to see them."
she said angrily.
Shen Ruolan put Xibao in her arms and said, "Okay, hold Xibao for a while, I'll go out and drive away those toads who want to eat swan meat, so we can eat."
With that said, he opened the door and walked out.
When I went out, I happened to hear my aunt's voice: "Second brother, second sister-in-law, our family used to be poor, so we were not worthy of Ju'er, but now our family's life is better, and we earn several taels of silver a day. Now I'm planning to buy a house and a car in Qingzhou, Ju'er won't suffer when she gets married..."
Shen Ruolan interrupted them and said: "My Ju'er is going to marry, but he is full of knowledge, well-spoken, good-looking, promising young man with a bright future, which one do you think Wang Baogen of your family fits into?"
She spoke very sharply, she almost said directly that your Wang Baogen is unworthy!
After Shen Xiuyun and Wang Wanfu heard this, they immediately understood what Shen Ruolan meant. They really looked down on Baogen of their family and wanted to find a son from a noble family!
Shen Xiuyun said resolutely: "Although Baogen doesn't know how to study, he is smart enough to do business. If Ju'er follows him, he will definitely not suffer in the future."
Shen Ruolan said lightly: "Even if you don't follow Wang Baogen, Ju'er won't endure hardships. With my sister who is a princess, Ju'er will not only not suffer hardships, but also be able to live like a gold slave and silver maidservant." Living the life of a young lady, this is not something ordinary people can afford."
In other words, I can still give her what you can give her, but you can't give her what I can give her.
Although Shen Xiuyun and his wife have earned a lot this year, compared with Shen Ruolan, there is still a big gap. There is no comparison at all. What Shen Ruolan means is to embarrass them, don't let them know that they have a little money Who am I now.
Speaking of this, Shen Xiuyun and Wang Wanfu can't say anything anymore. In the past, when Shen Ruolan pouted their face, Shen Xiuyun couldn't help but argue a few words, but now she dare not .
It is all thanks to Shen Ruolan that their family can live such a good life now. If they make her unhappy, if the business is taken back, how can they make money? Besides, Shen Ruolan is the princess now, and they can't afford to offend her. If they offend her, not to mention the business they got, they will have to deal with it.
So, hearing that Shen Ruolan also refused, and looking at the attitudes of Shen Dejian and Mu Shi, Wang Wanfu and his wife felt that there was basically no way to go, so they gave up thinking about Ju'er, and left with Wang Baogen dejected.
Because Wang Baogen's family has earned a lot of money this year, his personality is also a little swollen. Seeing his second uncle, second aunt, Shen Ruolan and Ju'er all rejecting him with one voice, his self-esteem was hit hard, and he immediately Unbearable.
Because he was afraid of Shen Ruolan, he didn't dare to attack in person. As soon as he left Shen's house and went outside, he cursed indignantly: "Bah, everyone looks down on me and looks down on me, like how noble they are." Yes, who doesn’t know who? Didn’t they all climb out of this village, pretend to be a noble person when they marry into the palace, don’t they have any compulsion to think about their color (sai) back then? What big-tailed wolf?"
When Shen Xiuyun heard this, she was so frightened that she quickly covered his mouth, looked around vigilantly, and let go after seeing no one, and said in a low voice: "My ancestor, please keep your voice down. Our family is all pointing at others to get rich, if she hears that you pay attention to her behind her back and take back our family's business, wouldn't that kill us?"
Wang Wanfu also said: "That's right, you know something, you are so noisy, people will hear you, and our money will be cut off. When the time comes, you won't be able to find the tune when you cry. People won't let you cry." Why don't we go find another girl, our family has enough money now, are we afraid that we won't find a satisfactory wife? What are you shouting about?"
Wang Baogen had no choice but to suffocate his anger after calling his parents to mourn him. Although he didn't dare to say anything on the surface, he hated his second uncle in his heart.
Hmph, everyone looks down on him, as if they are so great, who doesn't know who? Who is more noble than whom
