The strong brother was overjoyed when he heard that the Gao family agreed to the marriage. He had prepared for the worst, but he didn't expect it to happen.
Ning Yuanhang looked at him silly with joy, and said with a smile: "Big Brother, look at how many people in the capital who are as old as you are worthy of wealth? You can't count them with a single slap. The Gao family knows, How can you refuse to marry?"
Although he would rather be the prince of the back office, but the money at his disposal is pitiful. Unlike the strong brother, he holds such a large amount of property after getting married.
Think about it, he is a little envious.
Ning Yuanhang said thiefly: "Brother, when you get married, you can give your brother some money at that time!"
Brother Zhuang refused without hesitation: "No. You can't borrow money at will, unless you use it for serious things." Then again, if you want to use it for serious things, Uncle Qian and your aunt will definitely give it, you don't need to find him. borrow.
Ning Yuanhang sighed and said, "Well, they all say that the brothers who beat tigers will fight the father and son soldiers. Brother, you can't rely on it! Fortunately, I treat you heartily."
Brother Zhuang looked at him and said with a smile: "Don't be mean, go and practice!" This time, he must be admitted to the Qianwei Camp, and he will also make a fortune for the third girl of the Gao family.
"Okay, go to practice." In fact, he is also joking, how can he really borrow money from Brother Zhuang. At most, just a few meals for Brother Zhuang.
In March, Brother Zhuang passed the examination of Qianweiying. After two days of rest, he packed up the packages and went to Qianwei Camp.
By April, the strong brother will be filial piety.
Two days after he was out of filial piety, Zeng Chenfu invited the official media to go to the Gao family to propose marriage. Because the two families had already made an agreement secretly, the Gao family readily agreed to the marriage.
The two exchanged Geng Tie, Zeng Chenfu began to prepare the bride price.
Ning Hai gave Zeng Chenfu ten thousand taels of silver and said, "You can use the money to buy things first, and then tell me if you don't have it."
Zeng Chenfu said, "Father, the bride price of the strong brother should be paid by the uncle?" When the son marries, he who does not pay when he is an old man pays. In the future, Fang Hui's property won't get much for the strong brother. Therefore, he has to pay for the cost of getting married. If not, it would be cheaper for Tang's children with her.
This wedding depends on the specifications to be done. If it is done in a big way, the cost is not low. Like the elder son of the British government, he only offered thirty thousand taels of silver. The strong brother can't compare with the British princely son, but the bride price plus the marriage fee must exceed ten thousand taels.
Ning Hai nodded and said, "I have already written to him, and I believe I will send the money soon." The families are separated, and the strong brother can't even let him, the old man, pay the money when he gets married. As for the Zhuang brother's money, I keep it for the young couple.
Zeng Chenfu nodded, and then took out a list and said, "Father, this is the gift list, you see what else needs to be added." She drafted this gift list after careful consideration.
Ning Hai didn't even look at the list, so he said, "You have always done things properly, and I have nothing to worry about."
A few days later, Fang Hui received a letter from Ning Hai. After reading the letter, Fang Hui looked sad. The son is about to be married. He doesn't even know whether the second master of the Gao family is round or flat, let alone what the character of the Gao girl is.
Tang Shi looked bad at him, and asked, "My husband, what's the matter? But what's the matter in the army?"
Fang Hui shook his head and said, "There is nothing wrong in the army." In September last year, the Grand Princess led her troops and severely injured the Donghu people. There will be no major wars in the border city in the next 20 years.
Tang Shi saw that he didn't say anything, so he changed the subject: "Husband, Mrs. Lin heard that the eldest master was admitted to the Qianwei Camp, and she wanted to be the eldest daughter betrothed to the eldest master." Admission to the Qianwei Camp indicated the future of the child. Not bad.
After the news spread, some wives and wives who had girls of school age at home were moved. This Mrs. Lin’s husband is a thousand households in the army, and this Lin thousand households has been raised from the bottom, and has no foundation.
If Zeng Chenfu knew the roots of the Lin family, he would know what Tang's idea was. Asking Zhuang brother to marry a girl from the Lin family didn't help him at all in his career.
Fang Hui shook his head and said, "No, Dad has already shown his favor to A Zhuang. I have exchanged the Geng posts, and there is only a betrothal gift left."
Tang's heart jumped, and then smiled and said: "This is a good thing, but I don't know who is the girl?" She had thought of putting someone next to Zhuang'er, but she was afraid of making Ning Hai suspicious and finally dispelled this idea. As for buying people around Zhuang'er, she didn't even think of it.
The small servants around Zhuang'er are all children and grandchildren of Anyang Hou's family generals. And the maid waiting by her side was also carefully selected by Zeng Chenfu. These people can't be bought with money.
Fang Hui said: "It's the third girl from the Yongyi Bofu. Dad said that girl is smart and capable, and the housekeeper is also a good hand. The strong brother has also seen him and is very satisfied with the Gao girl. So he decides this matter. Coming down."
Tang's heart almost jumped to her throat, but she soon calmed down: "I remember Princess Rui, she seems to be a girl from Yongyi Bofu?"
Fang Hui didn't think much, nodded and said, "Well, Princess Rui is the only daughter of Yongyi Bo's house. Both of Yongyi Bo's sons hold important positions in the army. Most of the Gao family's heirs serve in the army. It will be very helpful to Zhuang's future future." At this point, Fang Hui's heart relaxed instantly. His father estimated that it was also based on this consideration that he would help the strong brother decide on the girl of the Gao family.
Tang Shi said with a worried look: "I heard that this noble lady has a bad temper. I don't know how this girl has a bad temper?" If she is a good one, she will definitely give birth to a lot of right and wrong. She didn't want anyone to disrupt her life at all, so she wanted her strong brother to marry a girl with a gentle family background and a gentle temperament.
The so-called good talk is actually weak temperament. In this way, she can also hold each other.
But I didn't want to, Ning Hai couldn't even rest assured that Ma Shi would let her interfere in the marriage of the strong brother.
Fang Hui said with a smile: "Don't worry about that, the girl in the father's picture must be outstanding in every aspect." This Gao family girl must be outstanding in every aspect, otherwise he won't be able to get his father's eyes. He knew that Ning Hai had a very high vision.
Although Brother Zhuang didn't want to marry a noble girl, but Geng Tie exchanged, this marriage cannot be changed.
Tang said very intimately: "It takes a lot of money to buy a dowry, husband, we can't let the elder son and the elder wife contribute and pay."
Fang Hui felt that Tang was very caring, and said with a smile: "I have asked Aqiang to send the silver ticket."
Tang Shi added: "Husband, you should send more to the past, and you can't let the elders and the others make up for it."
"Given 12,000 taels in the past, it should be enough to buy a dowry. As for the cost of getting married, you will have to give it extra at that time." The strong brother is his eldest son, and the wedding is naturally going to be lively and lively. .
Thinking of Brother Zhuang still living in Anyang Houfu, Fang Hui felt that he had to make arrangements. It doesn't matter if you live in Anyang Hou's Mansion, but now that the family is divided, the marriage can't be done in the Hou's Mansion.
Tang's face changed slightly. The bride price is only twelve thousand, plus the money for the wine service, doesn't it cost twenty thousand? Although the family base is relatively thick, this is too much.
But no matter how painful she was, she didn't dare to say anything against it. It's not that I'm afraid of Ning Hai, but that Fang Hui will think more about it. After all, Brother Zhuang is the eldest son, and because Ma's affairs made him feel guilty, Fang Hui gave so much money. Fang Hui must be unhappy to ask her to object.
Thinking of Ma's affairs, Tang's heart sank suddenly.
On the second day Fang Hui went to the army, and the Tang family sent everyone out, leaving Shi Cui alone.
Shi Cui asked, "Grandma, what's the matter?"
Tang's mouth pursed and asked, "Is it related to you that the grandmother passed away?" I was pregnant before, and I was busy raising a baby and didn't have the energy to think about it. But after giving birth, after thinking about this, Shi Cui always felt that Shi Cui was in a wrong state during that time.
Although she was a little skeptical, she did not ask. But Zhuang's brother's marriage gave her a sense of crisis. Not only Ning Hai, but even Zeng Chenfu didn't like her. The girl they chose is definitely not good. Therefore, this matter must be investigated clearly. Shi Cuizhen has been poisoned by Ma Clan, then this hidden danger must be cleared before the Gao family girl enters the door.
Shi Cui's legs softened and knelt on the ground.
What's still unclear now, Tang Shi angrily shouted: "You are so brave, you dare to do such a bad thing behind my back." Fortunately, my husband believes that he has not pursued it, otherwise it will be found out as Shi Cui's poisonous hand. No one believes she is innocent. At that time, not only will she die without a place to bury her, but also several children will have to be implicated.
Shi Cui didn't even dare to cry loudly: "Grandma, I, I just wanted to make her weaker, and then led the young master back to Tongcheng. In this way, the young master can't threaten you and the second young master in the future. Who can think of her? It was useless. I took a few pills and went."
Tang Clan couldn't help but slapped Shi Cui in anger: "You idiot, you dare to be adept at such a big thing." Ma Clan is gone, and now there is nothing that can hold the strong brother.
Shi Cui knelt on the ground begging for mercy.
She dared to do such a thing, how could she still tolerate Shi Cui. She comforted her face, but secretly moved her hands and feet. It didn't take long for Shi Cui to contract a strange disease and then died.
Because it was more than two years since Ma's death, no one suspected that Shi Cui's death was related to Tang's death.
The bride price sent by the Ning family to the Gao family was filled with the courtyard of the second-year lady in high school.
The second wife of high school looked at it and smiled from ear to ear. The more gifts the man gives, the more important it is to the girl. This time, the Ning family gave thirty-six dowry gifts, which greatly exceeded her expectations.
Mrs. Gao looked a little bit sour, but she didn't show it on her face: "Mrs. Shi Zi is really a big man!" On the day of her eldest son-in-law, she only paid a betrothal gift for twenty-four.
The second-year wife smiled and said, "Uncle Ning's family and Shi Zi have long been separated, and Madam Shi Zi is only buying these betrothal gifts on her behalf." It's not easy to let people think that these betrothal gifts were paid by Ning Zhan and Zeng Chenfu. Purchased.
The eldest lady was a little surprised: "Really?" He thought that the uncle of the Ning family favored the children from the side room and the concubine, and did not pay much attention to the eldest son!
The second-year wife smiled and said: "Naturally it is true. Even if the husband and wife are generous, this is not a small sum, how can it take such a big advantage."
This makes sense.
The eldest lady smiled and said, "It seems that we all blamed the Ning family by mistake."
In fact, the wife of the second year of high school did not know whether the bride price was paid by Fang Hui or Zhuang's brother himself: "It's the biological son, how can it be painful." Something happened.
