Dou Ming is no longer the child who felt a little timid when he met the second wife.

Dou Shiying spent a lot of effort to hire her to teach her how to become a famous lady who meets the expectations of the public.

She knelt in front of the second wife and cried heartbrokenly: "The son will not tell his father's fault. Even if my mother is wrong, I, as a daughter, cannot watch her humiliated. My father has always pityed my sister for being disappointed since childhood, and my sister grew up with Aunt Cui since childhood. I don't ask my sister to say good things to her mother, but at least I should advise my father to speak good things. I have a hot temper and speak no serious. This is mine. But whenever my father meets her sister, he will have a fight with her mother. Doesn't my sister have any responsibility? When my sister comes to Kyoto, since she doesn't go to pay homage to her grandmother," she said, looking at the second wife with tears in her eyes, "Oncestor, you always told me to abide by the rules since I was a child. Do you say that this is in accordance with the rules?"

Dou Zhao listened next to him, feeling complicated.

Wang Yingxue is her stepmother, and Wang Xu is her grandmother. Logically, she should kowtow and pay tribute.

The second wife was determined to slap Wang Xu in the face, so naturally she would not ask her to greet Wang Xu and Wang Yingxue. If she hadn't been confident, Dou Zhao would not have followed the second wife to Huaishu Hutong. But when she saw Dou Ming knowing how to use Aunt Cui to anger the second wife and knowing whether to conform to the rules to divert the second wife's eyes, she felt a little relieved.

At least, Dou Ming knew how to use his brain. He was no longer the willful child who would only yell or hide in Wang Xu's arms when he was hit. This would be much easier for her future path.

The second wife was indeed weak and did not scold Dou Ming, but it was not easy to defend her from her status.

Seeing the opportunity, Madam Liu smiled and walked forward a few steps to Dou Ming. While bent down to take her, she said, "Miss Fifth is wrong. You are still learning to walk on the Madam's kang. The palms are flesh, but the back of the hand is not fleshy? Madam loves the fourth lady and loves the fifth lady too. It is what Madam said, "Miss Fifth does not tell her father's fault. Some things are not easy for Madam to tell you younger generations. Otherwise, your sister didn't go to greet your grandmother, why did your grandmother have no complaints?" She said, "Miss Fifth is old now, so you should think more about it when encountering problems."

The country is easy to change, but nature is difficult to change. At Dou Ming's age, although he understands one's own principles, it is difficult to let them control their emotions. She came in anger, but when Dou Zhao turned around and left without saying a word, she couldn't help but secretly shouted "Oh no." After thinking hard, she thought of a way to escape.

When Madam Liu came to Shuan, she hesitated for a moment and stood up sobbing.

The second wife wanted to cause trouble for the Dou family with Dou Shiying, and she was suddenly a little disappointed and lost her control.

She waved and said to Dou Ming: "I will tell your father about your mother. You should go back first! Learn the rules with the nanny well and don't let your parents worry about you anymore."

It makes Dou Ming seem to be stubborn.

Dou Ming couldn't help biting his lip, but thought that for the first time in so many years, she had escaped from Dou Zhao unstoppable, but she couldn't help but look at Dou Zhao with a provocative look, and then she followed Madam Liu to retreat.

Dou Zhao didn't care about Dou Ming's attitude towards him. Dou Ming could not instruct the Dou family's manager and guards, like a cat with claws cut. No matter how fierce he was, he had no lethality.

She saw the second wife's tiredness, said a few words, "Please advise my father not to make trouble again", and then stepped down.

Two days later, the Taima told Dou Shishu about this.

Dou Shishu immediately came to Dou Shiying to speak.

Dou Shiying was still angry and poured out his words in his heart as if he was pouring beans on his trusted cousin, saying: "... Although Wang Yingxue was confused, the eldest aunt of the Wei family was even more hateful. She actually induced Wang Yingxue to humiliate Shou Gu! What exactly did their family want to do? If they were not satisfied with this marriage, they had made it clear at the beginning. The He family is a good family. Now, Shou Gu has been waiting for the Wei family for three years. As the wedding date is about to be approached, the Wei family has such a bad idea, so that Shou Gu is not the left or right, and let the Wei family control it for nothing."

Dou Shishu looked solemn when he heard this: "Is Wang's words trustworthy?"

The suspicion revealed in his words made Dou Shiying's face turn red.

He couldn't help but lower his head and murmured: "I have carefully examined the people around Wang..., she did not lie. Moreover, there was no other person who came to visit his home these days except Wei. Wang was detained at home for many days. It was impossible for her to suddenly think of this matter. It was because Wei promised to help Mingjie'er tell her that the family was a good marriage and to join Li Toutiao. She couldn't refuse Wei, so she agreed...

Since Dou Shishu entered the cabinet, he has been busy with official duties and socializing a lot. He even handed over his children's affairs to his fifth wife, let alone the marriage of his cousin's second daughter.

"What's wrong with Sister Ming'er's marriage?" he said, "Isn't it going well?"

Dou Shiying whispered: "It's not that it's not that it's not that it's not that good or bad. The family that Wei mentioned is the nephew of Shi Ruilan, the Marquis of Changxing..."

Dou Shishu frowned slightly and said, "The generals and ministers are not born. As long as the child has the ability, he can earn a family business that he has indulged in. If the child is not good at conduct, he will spend all his money and silver. It is better for a family like us to find a son-in-law who studies. This is the reason why I opposed Shou Gu marrying to the Marquis of Jining at the Marquis of Jining." After he said that, he thought for a while and said, "I think this is better. I will tell Fu Zhi, let him help him care and find a scholar with good character and innocent family style for Mingjie."

Fuzhi is the name of his in-law Cai Bi.

Cai Bi is versatile, has long sleeves and is good at sleeves, and has a lot of confidants all over the world. With him coming to help as a matchmaker, he will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Dou Shiying hurriedly thanked Dou Shishu. Although his anger was half gone, he was not ready to let the Wei family go. He hadn't married yet. The Wei family dared to have such an idea. If he married, he wouldn't have been eaten by the Wei family?

For the first time he knew how to think about his offspring.

Wei Tingyu knew his sister's plan when Zhang Mingyuan hurriedly asked Song Mo to help with the aftermath. He complained to Wei Tingzhen well, and said to his mother Tian: "I don't want to quit the bride! The fourth lady of the Dou family is very good. She is beautiful and has a marriage that she has settled since childhood. There is no reason to quit her bride casually."

Tian was already uneasy about this matter. She was relieved before her marriage was completed. Seeing that her son was unwilling to withdraw from the marriage, she didn't want to force her. She asked Wei Tingzhen to persuade him: "Let's just forget about this matter! Your brother doesn't want to withdraw from the marriage."

Wei Tingzhen was angry that he did not fight, but was scolded by Zhang Yuanming: "The fifth master of the Dou family is now a prime minister, and there are several Jinshi Juren, and they will only become more and more prominent in the future. Even if the dowry is less, what's the point? Relying on this big tree, are you still afraid that the Jining Marquis Mansion will not have a good life? Don't live a short-sighted life just by staring at your toes!"

The excuse of "incompatible" is useless, and it has become alert to the fifth wife of the Dou family. It is impossible to start quitting the bride from this aspect. Moreover, her mother and younger brother are not grateful, so Wei Tingzhen also felt a little embarrassed.

"But there is too little dowry." She muttered a few unwillingly.

"Why are you confused about this matter?" Zhang Yuanming said, "The Changxing Hou family is considered a big family business, right? But look at their ladies who are in the family, and the one who pays 3,000 taels of silver in one case, not a penny. This has to be included in the expenses of dowry and wedding banquets. You can see that the Jiangnan Jujia Hu married his daughter before the New Year, and the only dowry was 50,000 taels. The amount of dowry is not about the level of the family, but about the love of the parents for their children."

Wei Tingzhen said nothing awkwardly.

Wei Tingyu was wondering whether to come to the door to apologize to Dou Shiying, but when he thought of what his sister did, he was a little timid. After a while, he waited for news that Dou Zhao had entered Beijing.

He could no longer sit still, so he brought the best tea and wine and visited him.

Dou Shiying was angry and didn't see Wei Tingyu at all.

Wei Tingyu left Jing'an Temple Hutong in embarrassment.

Tian advised him: "At that time, we will prepare a lot of betrothal gifts and give Shou Gu a decent one."

Prepare the betrothal gifts heavily and get the money!

Wei Tingyu thought of the 20,000 taels of silver that Gu Yu had never settled for him, and went out again.

But Gu Yu's servant said, "Our son and the prince of Yan'an go to Kaifeng. The prince of Jining will come to find the prince in a few days!"

Wei Tingyu went there two more times, but he didn't see anyone standing there.

He had no choice but to go to the Duke of England's mansion to ask Song Mo: "..., please ask the prince to hand me a message to Mr. Gu."

Song Mo was silent for a while and said, "So, the wedding date is set?"

Wei Tingyu said embarrassedly: "It's been these days."

Song Mo said "Oh" and said, "Don't worry, I will tell Gu Yu about this." His tone was obviously a bit subsided compared to usual.

Wei Tingyu wondered.

Kyoto has been spreading a long time ago. The British Duke wanted to renew his ties, but his family had a little wealth, which made Song Mo reluctant to marry his daughter: he wanted to win the favor of the dragon and the phoenix, but the British Duke looked down on him. So much so that the British Duke could not find a suitable marriage throughout the city of Kyoto.

Song Mo was having a smooth life, so he should have a very comfortable life, so why did he look listless?

However, he still had a lot of thoughts and was not in the mood to care about these words. Wei Tingyu and Song Mo chatted for a few words, then stood up and said goodbye.

Gu Yu did go to Kaifeng Prefecture.

Song Mo ordered his accountant Huo Li: "You prepare 20,000 taels of silver, I will use it in two days."

Huo Li was afraid that Song Mo's income would not be enough to deal with Yi Zhitang's expenses. Unexpectedly, Song Mo had many ways. Yi Zhitang was not only more abundant than before, but also had a lot of savings. He also knew that Song Mo's expenses were shameful, so he said respectfully: "Is it a quasi-money or a silver note?"

"Prepare the silver notes!" Song Mo said dejectedly, "You can just hand it over to Chen He at that time."

Huo Li retreated in response.

Song Mo looked at the big trumpet flowers, his heart was in a mess.

Ji Yong from Yuqiao Hutong was also confused.

Since he parted with Dou Zhao in disagreement, he has been tossing and turning and still has not been able to sleep well.

Could it be that just watching Dou Zhao marry Wei Tingyu, who looks vulgar and has no choice but to learn character?
