Chapter 512 Borrowing Silver? Give money?
Shen Youfu and Shen Zhang have planned to borrow money from Shen Zi'an, and the marriage between Shen Ziju and Shen Zhu was imminent, so they did not delay. After the discussion, they went to Hou's house the next day.
This time, the husband and wife also learned to be smart. They didn't directly ask Shen Zi'an for money. They first complained in front of the Mu family. Although it was not a glorious thing to say that their family lacked money, it was because the two children married at the same time, and they married the daughter of Shang Shu and married the noble con The two families want to make the marriage more grand, so they don't have enough money, which is not a shame.
And after Shen Zhang's clever words, Shen Ziju is so incorruptible that he doesn't have money at home, otherwise he won't even have enough money to get married.
"Meng Shangshu's daughter is gentle and pure. She is not a person who likes publicity. Meng Shangshu is also a person who advocates diligence and thrift. They must not care about this. Don't worry about the two in-laws."
Mu Yongnian said, thinking that it was obviously a poor cry. I guess he came to borrow money, but he still complained here first, but he didn't know what to say. Since you want face and don't want to say it directly, we won't take the initiative to send the money out. What's more, I really don't want to lend this money.
Although Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi did not say too much to the Mu family that they had been bullied by the people in the old house, there were others, the old couple of the Lan family, Liu Jin, Liu Yin, and even Xiao Rixing and Yueyue. They all knew how oppressed the people in the fourth room were. In the face of Su Zhi Without telling the truth, I said it all. Therefore, the Mu family knew that Su Zhi had also suffered a lot of grievances when she married into the Shen family, and they were also very dissatisfied with the Shen family, especially the old couple of the Shen family and Shen Zhu.
Mrs. Mu and her husband are in the same mind. She said with a smile, "Ziju is a Hanlin. It's a good thing to marry Shangshu's daughter, but if it's too flamboyant, it makes people think more about where his money came from. So it's better to be more frugal. I think Ziju must think so.
Mrs. Mu thought of what she heard about her daughter and son-in-law being popular with the Shen family, and her heart hardened no matter how gentle she was. She thought that my daughter was driven out of the house as a broom star as soon as she got married. You still wanted us to help your children get married, when we didn't know what ?!
As soon as Shen Youfu and Shen Zhang heard this, shouldn't the marquis and his wife be very shrewd? Hearing that they are so poor, it is reasonable to help each other. If they pay for money, they don't have to go to Shen Zi'an's place to see the cold face. However, it is obvious that the marquis and his wife did not leave as they want, and they also said that they should hold the wedding more quietly. How can that be done? The marriage of the son and daughter is so close. At that time, people will discuss that the daughter's marriage is much more lively than the son's. Even if they know that Shen Ziju Look!
What's more, this time they came to ask for money not only to make the wedding more lively, but also for Shen Zhu's dowry.
Shen Youfu took a look at Shen Zhang's family. He is not a person who is too good at talking. Although his son is very good, he has a lot of face. Even in the face of those senior officials, he feels confident, but it does not mean that he can talk to these people. He knew that he was just an old villager in the countryside, and he didn't know which sentence could offend people. These people were not those in the countryside. If he offended, it would affect his son's future. Especially the marquis in front of him. Even if he is his own in-laws, he is cautious. So before he came, he agreed with Shen Zhangshi and asked Shen Zhangshi to talk more.
Shen Zhang's mouth is very talkative. After receiving Shen Youfu's eyes, she immediately said something about Shen Ziju. From when he was a child to the time he became an official, it was all about how sensible and talented Shen Ziju was. They didn't do anything for him as parents. Now I want him to marry his daughter-in-law home in a beautiful way.
Shen Zhang realized that the marquis and his wife were not satisfied with them, which must be because they knew that the fourth room was not popular with them. On the one hand, she expressed Shen Youfu and her own embarrassment, and on the other hand, she focused on how good Shen Ziju and the Shen Zi'an brothers were. Thinking that their son is so elegant and polite, and has a good relationship with the fourth room, the marquis will not be angry with their husband and wife.
"This is a good boy."
Mrs. Mu said that she had a good impression of Shen Ziju. From the words asked by Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi, Shen Ziju also got along well with them. Love Wu and Wu, Mrs. Mu doesn't hate Shen Ziju. In addition, because she also has a son of the same age, she also wants her son to have a lively wedding, which also understands the excitement that the Shen family wants to marry Shen Ziju.
Mu Yongnian also feels that Shen Ziju is a elegant young man, no worse than his own son. He is a talent lover. Although he does not like the Shen family, for Shen Ziju, who has a good relationship with his daughter and son-in-law, he wants to be promoted or promoted. The country needs talents. Especially now that Shen Zhu is going to marry Wang Feng, in order to prevent Shen Ziju from being won by the noble concubine's faction, he should give him some benefits.
"On the day of Ziju's marriage, we will congratulate him."
Mu Yongnian said, but he didn't mention anything like silver. He thought that Shen Zi'an was still at home, and the Shen family naturally asked him to borrow money. It's time to make your daughter angry. Mu Yongnian cherished Shen Ziju as a talent, but he would not let Shen Youfu and others go because of this.
Shen Youfu and Shen Zhangshi quickly thanked each other and thought to themselves that the more lively the son got married, the better. If the marquis goes, the prime minister will definitely go. Shang Shu's daughter will get married and go to a lot of senior officials. At that time, it must be very beautiful. If that's the case, it's even better to make the wedding more grand. It's thrifty. The whole capital knows that their in-laws are the noble concubine's mother's family and the loyal and righteous marquis's house. What's wrong with such a grand wedding banquet with silver money? So it must be grand, and it's better to attract the emperor!
The old couple of the Shen family began to imagine the grand scene of the guests gathering on that day. Shen Youfu thought that even the emperor had come, promoted his son again, and gave him countless rewards. Their family immediately did not have to worry about the money, and all the people envied them. Shen Zhangshi was thinking about what to do that day to be grand and unreasonable.
Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi came over at this time. They saluted the marquis and his wife. Mu Yongnian and his wife smiled and cared about Su Zhi again, and then let them talk to the old couple of the Shen family. Before leaving, Mrs. Mu gently pinched Su Zhi's hand and smiled at her. The meaning was very obvious Just don't be afraid, it's at home!
Before Mrs. Mu left, she was worried and left the close-fitting maid Pearl to let her pay attention to it. As long as the old couple of the Shen family behaved too much, she would tell her.
Pearl took the order, and then listened carefully.
Shen Youfu and Shen Zhang looked at their son and daughter-in-law in front of them. They all had the same idea, that is, how could these two people be so lucky to live so well after being separated by them?
Shen Youfu was angry and regretful. He thought that this son and daughter-in-law were all disobedient and unfilial to him, but God did not open his eyes and made them live a much better life than him. What I regret is that the daughter-in-law, who he thinks is unfilial, has actually become the daughter of the marquis. Now he can no longer be angry with her, which really makes him feel like a stone in his stomach, which is dull and dull!
Shen Zhang is jealous and worried. She has been afraid for so many years. She has suffered and done unconscionable things. Now she has raised her son and daughter. However, Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi, the holy beasts and so on all took the initiative to come to them, and Su Zhi became the daughter of the marquis. God is so kind to them. What they are worried about is that they still suspect that she has harmed Shen Zi'an's mother. What should they do if they pay her? If Shen Youfu's stomach looks like a stone, she is like a fire, which makes her irritable and painful.
Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi don't look like villagers now. One is handsome and cold, and the other is beautiful and noble. Although both of them wear more comfortable cotton-padded clothes at home, they are more noble than those who wear silk and satin. In addition, the maids serving behind them are more noble than Shen Youfu. Those ladies and gentlemen look much more expensive.
"Dad, what are you doing here?"
After Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi saluted, he helped Su Zhi sit down, and then opened his mouth coldly. He hasn't forgotten his mother's business yet. Because every time his father and daughter-mother come to them, there will be no good thing, so he is also psychologically prepared this time. Before the daughter-in-law came, she said that this time they might have borrowed money from Shen Ziju and Shen Zhu's lack of money in their marriage. He also felt that it was possible.
Shen Youfu wanted to get angry when he saw Shen Zi'an's cold appearance, but he put up with it. Now this son is the marquis's son-in-law, and he can't scold him as loudly as before. And it was not easy for Shen Zhang to talk about borrowing money. He was the only one who opened his mouth, so he suppressed his anger and said the words of borrowing money directly.
"Zi'an, if you're afraid that your father won't pay it back, I'll give you an IOU and give you a fingerprint. Do you think it's okay? Don't say you don't borrow, let's not talk about your current identity, you are also the godfather and adoptive mother of the eldest prince, the daughter and son-in-law of the marquis, and you are also called brothers and brothers with the prime minister. Let's say that your vermicelli business can now be said to be a daily gold Borrow a little money to marry your brother. You can do it as a brother!"
Shen Zi'an took a look at Su Zhi, and his eyes were saying that your daughter-in-law, you guessed so accurately. It was really for the silver!
Su Zhi squeezed her lips and smiled. She knew the couple too well. Although she wanted to lose face, she was also a person who took advantage of herself. Even if she was more knowledgeable and ambitious than ordinary farmers, she wanted to let her son be a senior official and her daughter to marry a big family, but she was still greedy for money in her bones. Not only can she guess that Shen Youfu will come to borrow money, but she also knows that the money will not be returned!
But don't you borrow this money? Yes, I won't borrow it, but I can still get the money.
Since the money may not be returned after borrowing, why should you lend it out? Just give it directly, but it depends on how to give it and who it is given to.
"Dad, it's a great joy to get married. We are naturally happy to be brothers and sisters-in-law, and we will naturally contribute. So Dad, you don't have to borrow money. It's not good to say it, as if we won't pay some money for our brothers. Well, all the money spent on the day of Ziju's marriage is all up to us, and if there is not enough manpower, it will be transferred from Houfu. At that time, we will give a generous gift to our brother and sister-in-law. Dad, what do you think of our brother and sister-in-law? It's okay, right?"
Su Zhi smiled and said, for Shen Ziju, Su Zhi is still insatiable. She only feels that this is a talented young man with full ambitions. If she is a clean official, it will be a blessing for the people. Therefore, although he once did not help Shen Zifu and Shen Zigui, he was still polite, so they were willing to do their best as brothers and sisters-in-law.
"This..."
Shen Youfu didn't know what to say after listening to Su Zhi's words. Naturally, he knew that Su Zhi's words were very humane. The money spent on the day of marriage was a large amount of money, carriages, horses and sticks, tables and chairs, food crews, and many other things, which were all blocked by silver. It's really good to be able to pay this money as a brother and sister-in-law. But this is not the purpose of his coming. He came here for money.
In addition to raising flowers for Shen Zi, the silver to go is also for Shen Zhu. No matter how much money Shen Zi'an spends, a penny will not fall into their hands. How can they give Shen Zhu?
"You'd better lend us the silver, so as not to bother you at that time."
Shen Youfu said that he didn't know whether to be angry or happy. He was glad that Shen Zi'an and others were willing to give money, but he was not happy that the money did not take the initiative to give it to them.
Su Zhi said, "It's not troublesome. We are just such a brother. He is married. Our brother and sister-in-law will give us some money. Are you afraid of trouble? Dad, you can go back. Don't worry, it will be very lively on the day of marriage.
"His father, let's do it. It's hard for them to have such a good relationship with their brothers."
Shen Zhangshi stopped Shen Youfu from saying anything more. She thought that the old man was really stupid. Shen Zi'an and others paid out the money. Can't they save the money they were going to spend on it? Just give this money to your daughter then. It's just that she was also a little depressed. She thought that if she knew that they would not pay back the money in the four rooms, so she simply paid for it directly and put one in Ziju? What a pity. I was going to play another play when they asked them for money in the future, so that Ziju and others almost impressed them. Now it doesn't seem to work. RS
