Chapter 2239

Zhuang Ge'er was overjoyed to hear that the Gao family agreed to the marriage. He was ready for the worst, but unexpectedly he was.

Ning Yuanhang looked at him and said with a smile, "brother, how many people in Beijing are as rich as you? You can't count it all. The Gao family knows, how can they refuse to marry? "

Although he is the son of the imperial family, he has little money at his disposal. It's not like Zhuang Ge'er, who holds such a large amount of property after marriage.

Think about it, he is a little envious.

Ning Yuanhang said: "brother, when you get married, I'll give you some money."

Zhuang Ge'er refused without hesitation: "no way. You can't borrow money unless it's for business In other words, if you need money for serious business, your uncle and aunt will certainly give it to you. You don't need to borrow it from him.

Ning Yuanhang sighed and said: "well, it's said that fighting tiger brothers and fighting father son soldiers, you can't rely on big brother! I owe you my heart and soul

Brother Zhuang looked at him and said with a smile, "don't be so talkative. Go to practice martial arts." This time, I must be admitted to Qianwei camp, and earn face for myself and the three girls of Gao family.

"Well, go and practice." In fact, he is also joking, which will really find Zhuang Ge'er to borrow money. At most, it's just a few meals for Zhuang Ge'er.

In March, Zhuang Ge'er passed the examination of Qianwei camp. After two days' rest, he packed up and went to Qianwei camp.

In April, brother Zhuang will be filial.

After two days of filial piety, Zeng Chenfu invited the official media to the Gao family. Because the two families had made a deal secretly, the GAOs were very happy to be married.

Two exchange Geng tie, Zeng Chenfu began to prepare betrothal gifts.

Ninghai gave Zeng Chenfu ten thousand taels of silver, said: "this money you take to buy things, less and then tell me."

Zeng Chenfu said: "Dad, the bride price of Zhuang Ge'er should be given by elder brother-in-law, right?" When a son gets married, who will pay if he doesn't pay. Anyway, after Fang Hui's hands of the industry, Zhuang Ge'er will not get much. So, he has to pay for the marriage. If not, it would be cheaper for Tang to have children with her.

The wedding also depends on the specifications. If it is a big one, the cost is not low. For example, the prince of the British government gave 30000 taels of silver to him. Brother Zhuang can't compare with the British aristocratic son. The betrothal gift plus the cost of marriage must be more than ten thousand taels of silver.

Ninghai nodded and said, "I have written to him. I believe I will send money soon." After all the families are separated, Zhuang Ge'er can't pay him back when he gets married. As for Zhuang Ge'er's money, I'll keep it for the couple.

Zeng Chenfu nodded, then took out a list and said, "Dad, this bride price list, you see what else you need to buy." This bride price list was drawn up after careful consideration.

Ninghai did not look at the list, said: "you have always been appropriate, I have nothing to worry about."

A few days later, Fang Hui received a letter from Ninghai. After reading the letter, Fang Hui looked a little gloomy. His son is going to be engaged. 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 looks like.

Seeing that he didn't look well, Tang Shi asked, "husband, what's the matter? But what's the matter in the army? "

Fang Hui shook his head and said, "nothing happens in the army." In September of last year, the eldest princess led the army to deal a heavy blow to the Donghu people. In the next 20 years, there will be no big war in the border town.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Tang changed the topic: "husband, Mrs. Lin heard that the eldest young master had been admitted to Qianwei camp, and said that she wanted to betroth her eldest daughter to the eldest young master." Being admitted to Qianwei camp shows that the child has a good future in the future.

When the news got out, some wives who had girls of the right age in their families were excited. Mrs. Lin's husband is a thousand households in the army. This Lin thousand households are from the bottom, and have no foundation.

If Zeng Chenfu knew the roots of the Lin family, she would know what Tang's idea was. Let Zhuang Ge'er marry a girl from the Lin family, it's not helpful to his official career.

Fang Hui shook his head and said, "no, dad has already treated Zhuang well. After the exchange of Geng tie, the bride price is left. "

Tang's heart jumped, and then said with a smile: "this is a good thing, but I don't know who is the girl?" She had thought of placing people around Zhuang Ge'er, but she was afraid of provoking Ninghai's suspicion and finally gave up the idea. As for buying the people around Zhuang Ge'er, she didn't even think about it.

Zhuang Ge'er's followers are all the children and grandchildren of the general of the Marquis's house in Anyang. And the servant girl that the side attends, also is Zeng Chen Fu carefully selects. These people can not be bought with silver.

Fang Hui said, "it's the three girls of Yongyi Bofu. Dad said that the girl was intelligent and capable, and the director of the family was also a good hand. Zhuang Ge'er has seen it, and he is very satisfied with the Gao girls. So he made up his mind and decided it. "

Tang's heart almost jumped to her throat, but she soon calmed down: "I remember Princess Rui, as if she were a girl from Yongyi mansion?"

Fang Hui didn't think much and nodded: "well, Princess Rui is the only daughter of yongyibo's house. The two sons of yongyibo held important positions in the army. Most of the heirs of the Gao family are in the army, which is very helpful to Zhuang Ge'er's future. " At this point, Fang Hui's heart was relaxed in an instant. His father estimated that it was also based on this consideration that he would help Zhuang Ge'er decide the girl of the Gao family.

Tang said with a worried face: "I heard that this noble girl has a bad temper. I don't know how the girl's temper is?" If it's a tough one, it's bound to produce a lot of right and wrong. She didn't want anyone to disturb her life at all, so she wanted Zhuang Ge'er to marry a girl who had a common family background and was gentle and talkative.

The so-called good talk is actually a weak disposition. In this way, she can hold each other.

But don't want to, Ninghai even Ma is not at ease, how can let her interfere in Zhuang Ge'er's marriage.

Fang Hui said with a smile: "you don't have to worry about this. The girl in my father's picture must be excellent in all aspects." This Gao girl must be excellent in all aspects, otherwise she won't be in his father's eyes. He knows that Ninghai has a high vision.

Although Zhuang didn't want to marry a noble girl, the Geng tie was exchanged, and the marriage couldn't be changed any more.

Tang Shi is very close to say: "buy betrothal gifts can cost a lot, husband, we can't let the son and his wife contribute and pay."

Fang Hui felt that Tang was very intimate and said with a smile, "I've asked a Qiang to send a silver note."

Tang Shi added: "husband, you have to send some more in the past. You can't let the son of heaven supplement them."

"I sent 12000 taels of silver. It should be enough to buy betrothal gifts. As for the cost of getting married, I'll give you extra money then. " Zhuang Ge'er is his eldest son. Naturally, the wedding will be very lively.

Thinking that Zhuang Ge'er is still living in the Marquis's house in Anyang, Fang Hui thinks it is necessary for him to make arrangements. It doesn't matter to live in the Marquis's house in Anyang, but now that we have separated the family, we can't do the marriage in the Marquis's house.

Tang's face changed slightly. The bride price is 12000 Liang, and the money for wine is 20000 Liang. Although the family background is relatively thick, but this is too big.

But no matter how painful it was, she didn't dare to say anything against it. I'm not afraid of Ninghai, but of Fang Hui's thinking. After all, Zhuang Ge'er is the eldest son. In addition, because of Ma's guilt, Fang Hui gives him so much money. Fang Hui must be unhappy to ask her to object.

Think of Ma Shi's affair, Tang Shi's heart suddenly sinks.

The next day Fang Hui went to the army, and Tang sent all the people out, leaving Shicui alone.

Shicui asked, "grandma, what's the matter?"

Tang sipped his mouth and asked, "does it have anything to do with you that Granny died of illness?" Before I was pregnant, I was too busy with raising the baby to think about it. But after giving birth to the baby, when I think about it, I always feel that Shicui was not in the right state at that time.

Although some doubt, she did not ask. But Zhuang Ge'er's marriage gave her a sense of crisis. Not only Ninghai, but also Zeng Chenfu didn't like her. The girl they choose is definitely not a good one. So this matter must be found out. Shicui has really poisoned Ma, so the hidden danger must be removed before the Gao girl enters the door.

Shicui's legs softened and she knelt on the ground.

There was something else I didn't understand. Tang said angrily, "how dare you do such a bad thing behind my back?" Fortunately, her husband believed that she didn't pursue her. Otherwise, she was found to be Shicui's murderer. No one believed that she was innocent. At that time, not only did she die, but also several children had to be implicated.

Shicui didn't even dare to cry out: "grandma, I, I just want to make her weak, and then led the young master back to Tongcheng. In this way, the young master can't threaten you and the second young master. Who would have thought that she was so useless that she took a few doses of medicine and went

Tang couldn't help but slap Shicui angrily: "you fool, you dare to be good at advocating such a big thing." Mahalanobis is gone, and now there is nothing that can hold Zhuang Ge'er.

Shicui knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

How can she tolerate Shicui even if she dares to do such things. He appeased her on the face, but moved his hands and feet secretly. It wasn't long before Shicui got sick and died.

Because it was more than two years since Ma's death, no one doubted that Shicui's death had something to do with Tang.

The betrothal gifts sent by Ning's family to Gao's family are piled up in the yard of the second lady of Gao's family.

The second lady of senior high school looked at it and couldn't close her mouth. The more dowry the man gives, the more attention he attaches to the girl. This time, Ning's bride price was much higher than her expectation.

Gao's wife looked a little sour, but her face didn't show: "Lady Shizi is really a big hand!" On the same day, her eldest son-in-law gave only twenty-four bridal gifts.

The second lady of senior high school said with a smile: "the elder brother of the Ning family has long separated from my son. My son's wife just bought these betrothal gifts on his behalf." Love got, but can't let a person think these betrothal gifts are Ning Zhan and Zeng Chenfu pay to buy.

The first lady was surprised: "really?" He thought that the elder of Ning family was partial to the children of the side room and the common people, and didn't pay attention to the eldest son!

The second lady of senior high school said with a smile: "nature is true. Even if Shizi and his wife are generous, this is not a small number. How can they take such a big advantage? "

This is very reasonable.

The eldest lady said with a smile: "it seems that we all blame the elder Ning family wrongly."

In fact, the second lady of senior high school didn't know whether the bride price was paid by Fang Hui or Zhuang Ge'er: "in the end, it's my own son, which can not hurt." She didn't want to say that Zhuang Ge'er had half of the family property, so as not to cause trouble.
