Chapter 33 Salted Fish Eating Melon 5
Aunt Ye didn’t like hearing what Mother Ye said, and immediately her face fell and said: “Sister-in-law, you are jealous that the Wang family wants to marry my daughter Right? After all, he originally wanted to marry your daughter, but it’s a pity that the horoscopes are not compatible, so your happiness was in vain. Now that I heard that he wanted to marry my daughter, are you willing? You must be unhappy, so that’s why you say this.”
Second Uncle Ye and Second Aunt Ye are not like their original parents, who think that their family conditions are pretty good and they don’t need to use their daughter’s marriage to gain benefits, but they just want a second wife. Climbing the big tree of the Wang family will bring benefits to himself, so he doesn't care what happens to the Wang family or the prince himself.
After listening to Aunt Ye’s words, Mother Ye couldn’t help but be speechless, thinking that this was really a kind intention. Let them go, they will cry when the time comes - even if her daughter’s dream is It's fake, but just because of the character of the men in the Wang family, marrying them would be a disaster.
Seeing that Ye’s mother stopped persuading, Second Aunt Ye didn’t think that Ye’s mother was too lazy to persuade. Instead, she felt that Ye’s mother had seen through her thoughts and was ashamed. She couldn’t help but feel proud at the moment and consciously suppressed the big room. One end.
Not only Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye are proud of this marriage, but they are also the protagonist. Cousin Ye is also satisfied with this marriage.
Probably because she has been brainwashed by her parents since she was a child, Cousin Ye has always had issues with Dafang.
She was also unhappy when she saw that the Wang family was planning to propose marriage to Linlang. She thought that her cousin had already taken advantage of her because she was the eldest, so how could she be so lucky to find such a powerful person in marriage matters? God's family.
Although some people in Beijing don’t like the fact that the Wang family has many concubines and they feel that there are many conflicts and difficult life after marrying them, but in cousin Ye’s opinion, the Wang family is as rich as the country. , how others would envy her for having endless money to spend, so she felt uncomfortable seeing the Wang family wanting to marry Linlang.
Later, she found out that her cousin’s marriage was canceled due to her disagreement with the prince. She was as happy as her parents.
Unexpectedly, what made her even happier was yet to come - the Wang family actually invited her to a banquet, and then the prince fell in love with her!
Although there are many princes in the Wang family, the daughters of each family in the capital also have as much gold. No matter how many people there are, they are still in demand. Not just anyone can marry if they want, so she is naturally overjoyed to be favored by the prince.
Although I knew in my heart that Mr. Wang might have liked Ye Linlang’s appearance, but because he was not compatible with Ye Linlang, he chose himself over the next best option. Although cousin Ye thought of this, she felt a little confused in her heart. She felt a little uncomfortable, but as long as she thought about how prosperous she would be if she married the prince and how much money she would have to spend in the future, she couldn't help but be satisfied.
As for Prince Wang, it is possible that he likes Ye Linlang, but because of the incompatibility, he could not marry her, so he replaced her, which makes people uncomfortable... As long as she does better than Ye Linlang in the future, I will be embarrassed. Accept it, it's better than letting Ye Linlang marry her, she's getting better and better.
Soon the Wang family proposed marriage to the girl in the second bedroom, and the two families made an appointment.
Seeing that the marriage was scheduled, cousin Ye felt a big stone fall in her heart. Thinking that this matter was considered stable, when the sisters in the family came to congratulate her, she couldn't help but feel a little dizzy in front of Linlang, following the people present. Relatives and friends said: "It's really thirty years from Hedong to thirty years from Hexi. I still remember that my family used to hire a female gentleman to teach us girls poetry, calligraphy and etiquette. When the female gentleman saw my cousin, she praised her for being smart. I said, oh, you are Ye Linlang's cousin, so you are much worse than your sister. I was so angry when I heard that. What do you think now? You are really looking down on others!" br>
In Cousin Ye's opinion, the reason why Ye Linlang is better than her is not because she is from the eldest family. The female gentleman knows that the Ye family will be the eldest family in the future and they will not get anything, so she looks down on her. Yourself? It's not that Ye Linlang is better than herself.
After listening to these relatives and friends, some of them didn’t understand that cousin Ye was Luoye Linlang’s face, but they still thought the story was fresh and they said in agreement that cousin Ye was doing really well now; those smart people Knowing that cousin Ye was referring to Sang scolding Huai, she wanted to vent her anger that others only looked up to Ye Linlang and looked down upon her. At that moment, someone looked at Linlang to see what her expression was.
What expression can Linlang have? There is no need to show any expression, won’t it be slapped in the face in a year? Everyone looked at Ye Linlang's unconscious look and couldn't help but wonder, after hearing cousin Ye's words, did Ye Linlang really not care, or was he feeling uncomfortable and pretending not to care?
No matter what others thought, cousin Ye saw Linlang's indifferent look and felt that Linlang was just pretending, so she felt very uncomfortable.
Not to mention how proud Cousin Ye was after her promotion to Prince Wang, the second cousin and Cousin Ye were very proud of themselves, but they said that not long after, the Wang family sent the betrothal gift.
The betrothal gift was 40,000 taels like other young masters.
Forty thousand taels, but it made the second room laugh from ear to ear.
Although the first and second bedrooms of the Ye family seem to have not been divided, the family property was already divided when Mr. Ye passed away. Now only the old lady is still there, so they are not living alone. In the future, when they grow old After the wife died, it was only the old lady's private house that was divided, and there was nothing else to divide.
In other words, Ye Erfang was actually independent at this time.
Now that we are independent, apart from food and accommodation in the public school, we are responsible for all other expenses.
Because most of the family property is in the hands of the eldest family, the second family doesn’t have much property, and the money earned by this method is not very much. That’s why I saw the betrothal gift of 40,000 taels, so I was so happy, thinking about my family now It's quite generous.
Yes, many families took the 40,000 taels of betrothal gift from the Wang family and did not return it. Instead, they kept it for themselves and only brought a little dowry for their daughters.
The reason for this is not because everyone thinks that the Wang family is too wealthy and thinks that 40,000 taels is just a drop in the bucket to the Wang family. If someone gives it to them and then returns it to them, isn't that a waste? After all, this money is of great use to my own family, but it is nothing to the Wang family. If my daughter gets married, she can make money in the Wang family, and there is no need to worry about running out of money when she goes to the Wang family.
This has become a trend, so the second wife is happy to see the 40,000 taels, because they only plan to give their daughter a dowry of 10,000 taels, and keep the rest for themselves.
Don’t think that a dowry of 10,000 taels is too small. Before the Wang family was developed, the people in Beijing who could give a dowry of 10,000 taels were those who were rich and powerful. Who would an ordinary family give their daughter such a dowry? , after all, most of the money must be left to his son. Who would give so much money to outsiders?
The remaining 30,000 taels will be of great help to the second house. They will soon be able to live a good life with this money. Thinking of this, the second house can’t help but feel happy. Fortunately, Ye Linlang, the eldest son, was not compatible with the prince, otherwise this good thing would not have happened to his family.
