Chapter 1092 Changping County Lord 40
Miss Wang immediately moved out of her seat and saluted: "A civilian girl doesn't know how to thank the county master for his kindness!"
"What a great kindness, it seems like I saved your life." Xining smiled: "Hurry up and help me up."
Miss Wang shed tears again this time because she was moved.
Xining turned to Hua'er and said, "Ask Mr. Wang after we go. Miss Wang is good at painting. We should hire a painter to teach her. He plans to pay for it or get some from Miss Wang's biological mother's dowry." , I will pay for it. Anyway, the county government is not short of this money. If the palace is in trouble, just let me know."
Miss Wang's eyes lit up again. This time she not only supported her, but also planned to get back her biological mother's dowry.
She immediately said: "My uncle's family should still have the dowry list from when my mother got married."
Xining asked: "How does your uncle treat you?"
Miss Wang thought for a while and replied: "My uncle is five hundred miles away. During the Chinese New Year, he sends people to bring something. Everyone in the family has a share. If uncle hadn't been here, maybe I would have gone with the wet nurses and maids around me. Generally speaking, I don’t know where I’m going. Although my uncle lives far away and lives in a small family, he should be willing to help me as long as he explains the reason. Moreover, my grandma is still at home. I immediately wrote a letter and sent it to my grandma. Ask your uncle to come over and take charge of the affairs for the women of the country, and also ask the county chief to take charge of the affairs for the women of the people.”
According to the customs and codes at this time, a woman's dowry belongs to the woman and is used as a personal gift. A man who uses a woman's dowry will be looked down upon.
There will be a dowry list, and when the three letters and six rituals are passed, the list will be signed by both parties.
If there is a divorce in the future, the woman will get back the dowry according to the property on the list. If the dowry is used by the man, he must make up for it, otherwise he will be despised and worthless, using his own wife's dowry.
If a woman dies, her children usually inherit the money.
As the only daughter, it makes sense to get back her mother's dowry.
Xining thought for a while: "It is enough for my mother's family to come forward. Mr. Wang's ancestors were also officials and well-educated people. Besides, there are still county magistrates here, so it's not my turn. I won't join in the fun. As for the letter, today's house There is also a caravan here that is going out, just ask them to take it with them.”
He is also well-educated... Many people secretly rolled their eyes. Even if Mr. Wang is well-educated and sensible, his house-filling job is not a good one. He took away the dowry from his first wife and treated his eldest daughter harshly.
I didn't hear it. If it hadn't been for an uncle who cared about her, I don't know where this poor lady would have been.
"Thank you, County Master!" Miss Wang saluted again.
"Oh, why are you saluting again? Get up quickly!" Xining said instead: "After getting your mother's dowry back, you have to start learning how to take care of it."
"Daughters of the people, please remember." Miss Wang's gratitude is beyond words. She has been suffering for so long, but she didn't expect to meet a noble person. Not daring to cry, I lowered my head and secretly wiped away my tears with my sleeves covered while eating tea.
And Xining shook his fan, feeling happy in his heart. Now some people in the palace are not having a good time. They probably have trouble sleeping at night and are worried about money.
If a person is greedy and takes something that is not his own and then digs it out from his palm, it will be as painful as ripping out the flesh of his heart.
As the main god, we should support justice and maintain the right path in the world. This is what we should do. It’s just a little effort, but it’s quite enjoyable!
Mo Ming: "Yes, yes, you are the compassionate Guanyin."
Xi Ning: "Guanyin is not popular yet. If the main god wants to be reckoned with, she is also a fairy who saves people from water and fire. It is Taiyi who saves Ku Tianzun!"
Mo Ming...: "I lost to you, so narcissistic."
Miss Wang's painting was hung up, and Miss Wang saluted again, thanking the county master for his appreciation. In fact, Miss Wang knows that her painting can only be considered average. Although it is acceptable compared to other ladies, it is simply incomparable to others. For example, at the last lotus root banquet, Huang Bing’s disciple Zhong Shuo, the paintings and inscriptions...
You must know that the celebrity Zhang Liao came once and left in despair. Whenever someone asked, Zhang Liao always said that differences do not work together, as if they were incompatible with each other. Some people secretly said that they were frustrated by the county leader.
Such a famous person as Zhang Liao was not even in the eyes of the county magistrate, but she, an ordinary boudoir lady who was not favored by her stepmother, was supported by the county magistrate. It was like reinventing herself.
You know, she has vaguely learned that her mother-in-law plans to marry her off, and the family she is betrothed to is naturally not a good family, and she is just greedy for a few dollars. And by marrying her off, her mother's dowry might never come back. Speaking of which, her younger siblings also called the eldest lady mother, so they fooled her into dividing the dowry.
This is why she quickly drew a picture and came here today.
After finishing her lunch and packing a few exquisite snacks, Miss Wang left the house.
When I left the house, I saw a car parked nearby.
Hua'er supported Miss Wang and looked at the car: "Miss Wang, where is your maid Qiuyue?"
Miss Wang's voice was very soft: "No, I didn't bring it out. She has too much work to do!"
No matter how busy I am, I still wanted to take this car to the county lord's mansion, so my wife was willing to give it to her. They only gave me a small car, saying it was enough for one person.
The Zhao family's daughter-in-law glanced at the Wu family's daughter-in-law. The Wu family's daughter-in-law immediately understood and said loudly: "How can we sit in such a small car? Is it possible that we should follow the car like mules, knowing that the county master is leaving? , there will be servants in the car. I have never seen your Wang family being so negligent.”
His voice was loud enough, which made many people take a second look at the eldest lady of the Wang family wearing a hat and the small shabby car parked next to the door.
"This is going to the county lord's mansion, and you are actually taking this kind of car. How poor is the Wang family?" Some people couldn't help but comment.
"Then it depends on who is sitting. That is the eldest lady of the Wang family. Her mother died when she was a child, and her father married her."
"Oh, no wonder!"
The Zhao family's daughter-in-law deliberately rolled her eyes at the Wu family's daughter-in-law: "You are the one who talks too much. We are under the orders of the county master to serve the eldest lady of the Wang family, and we are not here to enjoy the blessings. Let's tell Butler Xiao to call a car from the mansion."< br>
The Wu family's daughter-in-law then entered the door, and soon came out, and a large car came out from the side door.
Comparing the two cars, the difference between a luxury car and a second-hand shabby car is almost as big as day one.
The Zhao family's daughter-in-law then said: "Miss Hua'er, please help Miss Wang get into the car. The old slave and the others will take the small car."
Miss Wang wanted to say no, but she couldn't. Hua'er helped her into the car, and Hua'er sat with her.
The Zhao family's daughter-in-law was riding in a small car with the Wu family's daughter-in-law and Xiang Hong. After the arrangements were made, we went to the palace.
What happened when we arrived at the palace was another story.
