Chapter 1596 General Tiger Girl 80


Chapter 1596 The Tiger Girl 80

Now Mrs. Zhou has lost all her prestige and is sending everything here as a betrothal gift. Although she didn't complain a word for her son's sake, she still took the initiative to propose three sets of headscarfs as a bride price.

But when I go to take office this time, it is inevitable that there will be times when I show up in public. I don’t have a decent appearance, and I will be laughed at to some extent. The seventh-grade Anren uniform has not yet been completed, and only the previous ninth-grade Ruren uniform is available. Even if the clothes are ready, is it possible to wear the seventh-grade command uniform every time for big or small things?

In order to marry a daughter-in-law, the whole family was hollowed out. This was not just a matter of humiliating the Zhou family.

So Mr. Zhou accepted it generously and bowed and thanked him.

General Zhao also stayed with Mr. Zhou to eat, and Mr. Zhou also drank a few glasses of wine with General Zhao. They both ate and chatted happily. After drinking too much, he talked about everything, even Mr. Zhou started to name his grandson.

In the end, General Zhao asked someone to take him away in the mansion's car. He had to be supported by a servant when he walked. The drunk Master Zhou went back.

When they arrived at the Zhou Mansion, Mrs. Zhou went up to her. When she saw Mr. Zhou, whose ears were turning red and smelled of alcohol, she couldn't help frowning: "How much did you drink?"

The young man asked someone to stuff Mr. Zhou into the Zhou family, and handed the jewelry box to Mrs. Zhou: "This is a wedding gift from my wife, the general, to Mr. Zhou for his promotion. I have delivered it, so I asked Mrs. Zhou to take care of it." No, no." After that, he left.

There was no way to send him away like this. Mrs. Zhou forced Mr. Zhou to lie down. If there wasn't a woman supporting him on the other side, Mr. Zhou would definitely be lying on the ground.

After waiting for Mr. Zhou to go to bed, he saw the jewelry box on the table. The boy who came said that it was a gift from the general's wife to congratulate Mr. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou was shocked when she opened the box. The main bead of each piece is set with a southern bead as big as a longan, which is round and round. A pearl of this color and size would cost at least three thousand taels of silver. In addition, it was a reward from the palace, and the workmanship is unmatched outside. Even if an official gets one, he or she will keep it as a family heirloom. Even if you have money, you can't buy it.

She had three sets of haircuts, each of which cost only eight or nine hundred taels of silver. When she wrote the gift list, she counted two thousand and fifty taels of silver. This set was far more than her three sets.

The women of the Bian Dynasty loved pearls so much that they would not lose face even in the capital, let alone the county town, wearing this kind of hair and face.

Sure enough, suffering is a blessing. I originally handed over the three sets of jewelry, but I didn't feel anything when I handed them over. After I handed them over, I looked at the empty jewelry box and felt a little disappointed.

It only took half a day for these three sets of trades to be handed over, and the money was immediately returned and a huge profit was made. There is nothing wrong with getting married to Zhenguo General's Mansion!

Mrs. Zhou almost burst into tears with joy. She immediately asked someone to put it on her and looked in the mirror for a long time. It's already midnight. If I don't sleep, I'll wait until dawn before taking it off. I put it in the box and looked at it several times before asking someone to put it away. I almost fell asleep holding the jewelry box.

After the application period and the etiquette letter, three letters and six etiquettes have been passed, and the remaining one letter and one etiquette have to wait for the wedding day.

For the safety of his future son-in-law, General Zhao was powerful enough to mobilize a dozen guards to take turns standing guard in the Zhou Mansion.

If you are new here and don't know the situation here, you will take a quick look and see that there are several people dressed as sergeants standing guard at the door of the small house. You will think that this family has violated some royal laws and something big has happened.

This move is undoubtedly a declaration that if something happens to Zhou Zexian, the Zhenguo General Mansion will never let it go!

Not only that, they also dispatched some women and servants to take care of Zhou's house. For Zhou Zexian, who was recovering from his injuries, he invited a doctor from Jishi Hall to come to the house every three days to check and treat Zhou Zexian. Erlang of the Zhou family goes to the Zhenguo General's Mansion early every morning to practice martial arts with the prince.

After all, the second son of the Zhou family was still young, so he thought it would be better to follow the prince first. After he has grown up and learned some skills, he would then follow the third son. Moreover, Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou can rest assured that the second son of the Zhou family is in Beijing. After all, there are fierce Huns and Tatars at the border. No one can guarantee when fighting will break out again.

When Mr. Zhou saw this, he couldn't even arrange it so well. When the final departure time came on the tenth day of February, he safely took Mrs. Zhou to her appointment.

There is a remote courtyard in the Zhenguo General's Mansion, which contains the Zhao family's ancestral hall and a small room. On weekdays, some sacrificial sundries are piled up. At this time, the place has been tidied up, and Zhao Yingxue is locked inside. There was the sound of unlocking again outside, and an old woman came in with a food box hanging on her arm. As soon as she entered the house, the door at the back was closed by the guards outside.

The sunlight that originally penetrated through the crack in the door disappeared again, leaving only a cold air in the room.

The old woman walked to the table and without even looking at Zhao Yingxue who was sitting on the edge of the bed, she took out the food from the food box and placed it on the table.

The old woman would go out after serving the food and come in half an hour later to clean up. Regardless of whether she had used them or not, they were all taken away together.

When she was first locked in, she overturned all the food on the table to the ground. As a result, the old woman came in with a broom and swept up all the mess on the floor. Then she didn't bring any food that night, and it wasn't until the next morning.

After being hungry all day, she learned a lesson not to get angry with her stomach. The feeling of hunger is really uncomfortable!

Zhao Yingxue took off the bracelet from her wrist and put it into the old woman's hand before she left.

Originally this bracelet was a pair, but two days ago I got the news that Zhao Yinghong was marrying Zhou Zexian on her behalf, so I took it off her wrist and gave it to the old woman.

"When will my father let me out?" My younger sister married for my elder sister. Although Zhao Yingxue breathed a sigh of relief, she was still under house arrest.

There are many men in the world who are weak-minded. If she doesn't go out, the third prince may forget about her. When the concubine is chosen, she has no choice but to be a concubine. In the prince's palace, even if she is a noble concubine, she is still a concubine, far inferior to the side concubine, just like the side concubine is far inferior to the main concubine.

Being locked up in a small room next to the ancestral hall, Aunt Xu couldn't see her, so she had no choice but to bribe the old lady and find out the news.

The old woman quickly stuffed the bracelet into her collar, looked out the door, and lowered her voice: "Aunt Xu has already thought of a solution. I think it won't be long. Please rest assured and stay here for a few more days, Miss Second."

Zhao Yingxue couldn't hold back her excitement and thanked her softly: "Thank you."

The old woman didn't respond. She walked to the door with her head lowered and patted the door: "Okay!" The guard outside the door opened the door, and it was only big enough for one person to pass through. When the person walked out, he quickly closed it again and locked it.

Zhao Yingxue walked to the table and sat down. Although she was under house arrest, the food was still the same as before, with four dishes and one soup, including meat and vegetables. I picked up chopsticks to eat. Because I was in a good mood, I used them a lot more.

Aunt Xu was trying her best, but she still couldn't see General Zhao.

General Zhao was flipping through military books in his study, and news came from Jingxi Courtyard that Aunt Xu was ill and asked him to come over and take a look.

After a few days of calm, he came up with another trick. General Zhao frowned so hard that he could kill a fly: "If you are sick, go to the doctor. What's the use of me going?"
