Chapter 8: The number of dowries
Another example is "a number of fabrics for clothing in four seasons". In fact, it was a thin cloth or ge cloth, not to mention a first-class fashionable brocade, and not even a single ordinary satin.
That's it, it's packed in several large boxes and divided into four dowries to pack ...
As for the "quantity of silver at the bottom of the box", Qiao Xuan finally found a miserable silver tael.
Of course, as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and the daughter of a county magistrate is much better than a peasant girl.
In the eyes of the true county magistrate's daughter, these things were equivalent to intimidation and humiliation, but to Qiao Xuan, he felt he had obtained them.
Just talking about 10 taels of silver it was a huge sum of money for a farmer!
Madam Qiao's humiliation might have been a fatal blow to the original owner, but to him, it was nothing.
Compared to poor and poor, the starting point was not bad, if he wanted money, he would get it himself.
In the future, the slap on the face will be returned, and it will be fun!
After tidying up, Qiao Xuan generously took out all the cloths and distributed them to his mother-in-law and sister-in-law Xu, and dedicated them to sewing clothes for everyone in the family.
These fabrics were nothing in his eyes, but these fabrics were very good in the farmhouse.
Madam Fang and Madam Xu were both shocked and in disbelief.
Madam Fang was still a little hesitant, and she hesitated to want one, for fear that others would say that she coveted her daughter-in-law's dowry.
You must know that when the daughter-in-law's dowry was brought to the door yesterday, she heard a lot of sour words, especially the two younger brothers and sisters in the second and third rooms.
Only then did Madame Fang accept it with a laugh, and she could not help but say: "This mahar is the most important thing in the female family, you, take good care of your own belongings, you are, don't waste it. The days are coming, it's still growing!"
Qiao Xuan's heart warmed, he was completely touched, he nodded and smiled, "Mother's advice, I've written it down!"
He took out two pairs of extremely bright silk flowers and gave them to his brother-in-law Shao Taotao and his three-year-old nephew Shao Qing.
From his point of view, the workmanship of this silk flower looks a bit rough, but it costs twenty-five cents a pair Who in the country would want to buy it easily?
Madam Xu was very happy and grateful to Shao Qing; shao Taotao also liked her very much, blushed in embarrassment and thanked her, she happily stuck it on her head, and won a lot of compliments and compliments from some women.
Qiao Xuan hid a hint of guilt from him sending silk cloths and flowers, but he was extremely hardworking in terms of being kind and praise.
In fact, when he sent something, he had a slight temptation on his mind, to test the temperament of his mother-in-law, brother-in-law, and aunt. If he's greedy, then he's got a good idea .
But I don't want to, not like that.
Even if the eldest sister-in-law, Lady Xu, was a little heavy-hearted, it was human nature.
Qiao Xuan was truly relieved.
But he had no idea that Xu Shi was feeling a little uneasy at the moment.
As soon as the fifth brother entered the door, he was clearly compared to him in every aspect, and he felt annoyed and pouted in his heart. Seeing her flattering and flattering her mother-in-law, Lady Xu scolded countless times in her heart, "Shameless!"
Who would have thought that the fifth brother and sister would be so generous and give him so much cloth, two of which were still very thick, he said, and can be made into cotton clothes by sewing cotton in winter. He also gave Shao Qing such a beautiful silk flower.
He felt that he was very inappropriate!
