Chapter 385 Green Mountain

What's wrong with him? Mrs. Gan smiled and said, one-third of the ancestral property was sold and used to buy sacrificial fields. During the two days of the lawsuit, the father's income dropped sharply, and another part of the property was sold. When the time came to divide the family property, Uncle Zhongqin

The ancestral property of the house is only one-third of its original value. I am afraid that he will wake up in the middle of the night and start laughing secretly.

The eleventh mother is ashamed.

Mrs. Gan Tai said again: The lawsuit was able to be settled like this. In the final analysis, Lanting played a lot of role in it.

Eleven Niang was puzzled.

Lanting was smart, cheerful, respected by her husband, liked by her mother-in-law, and gave birth to a son as her first child. She was firmly established in the Liang family. Mrs. Gan put the peeled lotus seed rice in a small gold plate and handed it to Eleven Niang.

, sweet and refreshing. Try it

Eleven Niang ate one with a toothpick: it was very sweet.

Mrs. Gan continued the topic she just talked about: With all the commotion in the Gan family, only two people will have a hard time. One is Cao E, who may not even be able to pay for the dowry. The other is Uncle Ye, who will inevitably be looked at by others.

They were immoral and incompetent people. After all, they and Lan Ting were from the same mother and father. Only then did Lan Ting come forward and beg her father-in-law to come forward and send a message to Dali Temple to settle the case as soon as possible.

Eleven Niang only cares about Cao E: Then Cao E’s dowry

The uncle said in front of Lanting that he would marry a girl just as other people marry their daughters. Mrs. Gan peeled off a few more lotus seeds and rice and put them in a small gold plate. One hundred and twenty-four people carried the dowry, making sure it was filled to the brim.

Yes, we will never allow the Jiang family to talk sideways.

Eleven Niang thought of the two mothers of the Jiang family: Are they still here to serve?

Mrs. Gan Tai laughed while she was still talking. She had always thought that Cao E had a gentle temperament and would be frustrated if something like this happened to her. Unexpectedly, although she was too square in her words and actions, she was also open-minded.

His strong character made the two mothers dare not look down upon him, and they gave him some respect. As he said that, he sighed softly, saying that his in-laws meant to look down upon him, and there was no one left to support him. If he did not respect himself anymore,

I'm afraid that when the time comes, I will end up as a human being. It's better to simply be strict and upright and fight for respect, rather than lowering my status and still being looked down upon by others.

Eleven Niang remained silent.

Having no extravagant hopes for the future before you enter the door is like a flower that has withered before it blooms.

There was a little sadness in the room.

Mrs. Gan Tai changed the subject with a busy smile and asked Sister Hui about leaving the cabinet: I heard that the first one was carried to East Street, and the last one has not yet left.

I heard about it too. When Eleven Niang thought about the noisy gongs and drums in the Lin family at that time, she had a smile on her face. I didn't go. Sister Zhen went to get married. I specially followed Mother Song to serve her. Take a look.

What will it be like when Sister Hui gets married? When we, Sister Zhen, get married, we should be almost the same.

After hearing this, Mrs. Gan nodded repeatedly: They were both young ladies from the Gongqing family, and they were all married to Cangzhou. Although Sister Zhen’s dowry did not necessarily have to go beyond Sister Hui’s, it could not be worse than hers. Asked her again, still

Will Aunt Wen help you prepare?

Hmm. Eleven Niang said with a smile, she was very attentive. I looked at the prepared things, each one was more exquisite and more novel than the last one. I am afraid that the ten thousand taels of silver given by the Marquis have already been spent.

It's 70 or 88. The dowry is only half purchased. She said, and took a sip of sour plum soup. I am planning to go to Aunt Wen to settle the accounts in a few days and see if I can let the Marquis privately use some money to subsidize the allowance.

Mrs. Gan laughed when she heard this: It's good for you, it doesn't hurt to use other people's money.

Eleven Niang said with a smile: If money is earned, it is spent on others. There is a saying that if the descendants are angry, what is the use of leaving money? If the descendants are not angry, leaving money is useless. Leaving a large amount of money will harm people.

It's better to break up early and go on your own. It's better than those who go out to play with bare hands.

After hearing this, Mrs. Gan couldn't help but taste it carefully.

Yes. She mused, look at the Gan family, which was also one of the founding fathers back then. Among the families, they have always been blessed by the Holy Family and have not suffered any setbacks. But look at it now, even the Weiyuan Hou Mansion cannot compare.

.

The Weiyuan Marquis Mansion was once deprived of titles like the Yongping Marquis Mansion. The Xu family managed to produce a queen and a general, but the Lin family relied on several generations of management to turn a down-to-earth family into a Yan family.

One of the wealthy households in Beijing.

After saying that, he remembered that he also owned part of the Gan family's shop, so he stopped the topic and asked with a smile about Eleven Niang's birthday: "You can't have a banquet on your birthday today, wouldn't it be a bit deserted?"

It was not deserted when we arrived. Eleven Niang said with a smile, Brother Yu asked someone to bring back a folding fan with his own handwriting, Brother Zhun made a flute for me, and Brother Jie gave me a can of his favorite food.

I gave me some crystal candy, and Sister Zhen helped me make two pairs of shoes. We all gathered around and happily ate a bowl of longevity noodles. It was very lively.

Mrs. Gan couldn't help but look envious.

She has never had children in her life and loves children the most.

Brother Jie also knows how to give you something.

Hmm. It was given to him by the Madam before, but he didn’t want to eat it either.

Come and bring him someday and let me have a look. Mrs. Gan smiled and said, I heard he is very beautiful.

All the children are beautiful

The two children chatted with each other for a long time. It was not until the little maid came to ask where the kang table for lunch was that they stopped talking and went to have lunch.

Just as I put down my chopsticks, Mrs. Gan came to visit.

She only stayed with him to drink tea and chat.

Seeing that she seemed to have something to say, Eleven Niang made an excuse and went to the clean room.

It's just that Mrs. Gan lives in a small place and the house is quiet, so she can still hear clearly what she shouldn't have heard.

The past few days were chaotic. Mrs. Gan spoke with some respect and did not bother to say hello to you. It is a bit unseemly to fish for three days and dry the nets for two days. Now that the status has been determined, the original rules must also be followed.

Just stand up. My uncle's wish is to let me bring the children to you every day to check your morning and dusk hours, as a way to fulfill my filial piety.

Mrs. Gan was very surprised when she heard this. She hesitated for a moment and then said: No need. I am a widow, so it is better to live in peace.

You can't say that. Mrs. Gan's attitude is very insistent. No matter what, you will always be our mother.

Mrs. Gan was even more afraid to talk to her.

Mrs. Gan was anxious and simply said: We parents should also set a good example for our children.

Mrs. Gan was stunned, thought about it, and said: Then come and say hello on the first and fifteenth day of every month. Wait until the three-year filial piety period is over.

Mrs. Gan breathed a sigh of relief, said a few words to Mrs. Gan, said hello to Eleven Niang, stood up and left.

Mrs. Gan couldn't help but laugh at herself: I finally have some effect

However, Eleven Niang felt sad and could only comfort her: No matter what the reason is, if you can respect you as an elder, you don’t have to worry too much about them. If you like them to say hello, just say you are not well.

Feeling better

Mrs. Gan laughed loudly after hearing this: Is this a trick your mother-in-law usually uses?

Eleven Niang was naturally not easy to discuss, so she just pursed her lips and smiled.

Mrs. Gan Tai thought of Eleven Niang's sudden visit and said: "Looking at your leisurely look, I just talked to you when I entered the door. You didn't even say hello, you just hurried to me."

As a rule of thumb, you should send your mother to make an appointment before visiting the house, so as not to make it inconvenient for the other party to receive you or go out.

I wanted to avoid people. Eleven Niang was very calm. Mrs. Jianninghou suddenly sent someone to visit me in the morning. I didn’t want to see her, so I came to your place.

Mrs. Gan was startled when she heard this, and then she became a little worried.

This is not a solution, she said, since Mrs. Marquis Jianning wants to see you, if it doesn’t happen this time, there will definitely be a next time. Moreover, she and you are both Marquises and are relatives of the emperor, although you two did not have big families in the past.

But now Aunt Yang is involved. Her coming to visit you can be said to be a normal courtesy visit between the Duke and his wife, or it can be said that she is going for the Yang family. You don't even listen to what she said.

Avoiding everything is a bit petty. If rumors spread that you are fighting with a concubine, and people misunderstand that you are not as tolerant and generous as a housewife, it will be more than worth the gain. I think you are still

Let's meet her. At least listen to what she has to say before making any plans.

I know what my sister said. Eleven Niang meant a lot, and it’s not like I haven’t thought about it. I’m just showing my attitude to everyone. As she spoke, her expression became a little serious, and the Yang family took it seriously.

Although Princess Fucheng said this, what people in the Yang family think and how others view it are still open to question. But if I were to meet Marquis Jianning without knowing anything,

Madam, if someone said that I want to live with the Yang family as relatives, then what will happen to me and what will happen to our Luo family? At the end of the sentence, there was a serious tone in his tone.

Mrs. Gan couldn't help but dim her eyes when she heard what she said made sense: What if she offended the Yang family?

There are some things that I will never agree to. Eleven Niang’s eyes are firm.

Also, if you treat a concubine's family as a relative, you are giving up your rights as the main wife.

Mrs. Gan sighed deeply and stopped persuading her. She ordered the little maid to bring an incense handkerchief and put it next to Eleven Niang's pillow: "It's fragrant. You can take a nap. It won't be too late to think about those troublesome things later."

Eleven Niang was originally planning to go back in the evening, so she was not polite and took a nap on the kang. In the afternoon, she talked to Mrs. Gan about the Xipu: Although Buzi didn't make much money, he made a lot of money. Yanjing didn't

The young official knew that we could embroider the clothes in the palace and went to Xipu to make clothes.

That’s great, Mrs. Gan said with a smile, one more business means more income.

I think so too. Eleven Niang said with a smile, so I let Master Jian make his own decision. If the price is right, then there is no problem.

The two chatted all over the place, and Eleven Niang went back after dinner.

Fortunately, Mr. Zhi only suffered a broken collarbone.

Because it requires hospitalization, updates will be a little late these days.

I saw everyone’s caring messages, and I would like to thank you all.

Regarding the update problem, I will try my best to overcome it. If I really can't insist on it, it won't be too late to ask for leave from everyone. As for the extra update owed, it may take some time to pay it back. Please forgive me.
