MTL - Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World-Chapter 11 dowry

  Wan is sleeping.

   She was so overthinking last night that she couldn't sleep at all. She walked with Li Baolu on her back for nearly three hours early in the morning.

   Regardless of whether the other party responded or not, she opened her mouth and took the most difficult step, and the rest was left to fate.

   So Wan fell asleep in the guest room as soon as he relaxed.

   Originally, Li Baolu was going to sleep, but before she fell asleep, she heard footsteps, and as soon as she came out, she met Gu Jingyun, who had a serious face and pretended to be an adult.

   The other party's expression of "I'm the master, so I'll entertain you" made Li Baolu unable to open her mouth and go back to sleep.

   And she also wanted to know the situation of the Qin family through Gu Jingyun, after all, this was the shelter her grandmother found for her after all her thoughts.

  Unfortunately, before she asked, the other party despised her in every way, so Li Baolu resolutely forgot the business.

   She felt that it was not her fault. After all, she was only three years old, and children are forgetful.

   As for her memory of her past life, she selectively forgot.

  Although she was slightly inferior in the confrontation with Gu Jingyun, she was still polite when dealing with He Zipei, so she asked the three of them to sit down in the outer room, and ran back to the inner room to wake up her grandmother.

  He Zipei couldn't help laughing when she saw that she asked them to sit down and wait for a while.

   Qin Xinfang's eyes also flashed a smile, and he turned his head to glance at his nephew. Like their family Jingyun, he always liked to pretend to be an adult.

   But Gu Jingyun was too serious when he was pretending to be an adult, losing the innocence of a child, but Li Baolu was stupid and cute, not only He Zipei, but also Qin Xinfang was a little more pleased with her.

   "Grandmother," Li Baolu pushed Wan Shi and whispered twice in her ear.

  Wan opened her eyes with difficulty, only to feel aches and dizziness all over her body, but she kept her face calm and asked Baolu with a smile, "What's wrong with Baolu?"

   "Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin are here."

  Wan suddenly woke up. She didn't expect Qin Xinfang to come back so early. Shouldn't ordinary people wait for the sun to set before going home?

  Wan tidyed up her appearance and was about to pull Baolu out. Suddenly she felt something was wrong, she stopped and asked, "What do you call their uncle and aunt?"

   Qin Xinfang and her husband are friends for a long time. Even if Baolu is not allowed to call him Shibo, should Baolu be called his grandfather?

   "Aunt Qin asked me to call me that," Baolu said, "Aunt Qin said she wanted to call with brother Jingyun."

  Wan's eyes suddenly brightened astonishingly, grabbing Li Baolu's hand slightly, and said excitedly, "They agreed!"

  Wan took Baolu out happily, and the two sides met again.

Qin Xinfang really wanted to call Mrs. Wan his wife's wife, but after looking at the two Xiaodouding in the room, he changed his words and said, "Mrs. Li's plan has already been told to me by my wife, and the two children are of the same age, so I have no objection. My sister-in-law also agreed. It’s just that getting married is a big deal. Even if Baolu is a child bride, my Qin family will not feel wronged, so my wife might as well take her back first. It's time to bring her back."

Wan looked at Bao Lu with pity, shook her head and said, "I understand Mr.'s kindness, but the time is urgent. Just in case, it's better to set it in the near future. If the date can be set for tomorrow, it will be even better. "

   Qin Xinfang was displeased in her heart, but she still said with a smile on her face: "Madam, don't worry, even if you take Baolu back, my wife and I will set a time to visit soon."

   thought Wan was afraid that they would go back on their word.

Wan Shi was a little stunned, and then she reacted bitterly: "Mr. misunderstood, it's not that I was in a hurry to push my granddaughter out..." She hesitated for a while, but still said: "I'm not afraid of the joke of Mr. Don't worry about Baolu staying at home..."

   Qin Xinfang frowned, even He Zipei frowned.

   They have only this nephew in their family, and it is possible that this generation is the only seedling with the blood of the Qin family, so they dote on him in every possible way.

   It was already a little wrong to let him marry a child bride. If the engagement was made so hastily, I would be very sorry for him.

   Wan Shi obviously thought of this too, she wiped her tears, got up and went back to the inner room, holding out a small bag.

"I understand what Mr. and Mrs. mean, and they don't want to be wronged by the two children. I don't object to the engagement ceremony, but it can't be in the Li family." Mrs Wan rubbed the burden on her hands and said, "I thought about it before I came here. Well, if the husband and wife don't agree with this marriage, that's all, if they agree, then the marriage will be settled by the way, and I have prepared the dowry for Baolu."

   After saying that, he opened the small bag, which contained a pair of bracelets, a few pieces of silver and four books.

   Qin Xinfang and He Zipei sat up straight when they saw the book underneath, and their faces became serious.

Wan touched the four books with a sense of disappointment and said, "This is a medical book written by the ancestors of my Li family in all dynasties. My father-in-law was able to sit in the position of the upper court judge at a young age. These four books have made great contributions, and now let them be given to the treasure. Let Lu marry you."

   "My wife has a son and grandson, why should I give it to a three-year-old?" She is still a girl destined to marry.

   Not to mention the family skills of the Li family, but also a scholarly family like the Qin family. Some books and some things are only for boys to read, and girls are not allowed to touch.

   Because no matter how well a girl learns, she will be someone else's family after she gets married.

   And the Wan family was willing to abandon her descendants and choose Li Baolu. Qin Xinfang admired her decision, but she was also curious at the same time.

Wan Shi did not have such complicated considerations, she said: "Li Hong has no talent for studying medicine. Brother Jun was brought by his grandfather when he was three years old to recognize herbal medicine, and he has no talent. This medical book is left to them. , and it may not be able to keep it, it is better to give it to Baolu."

  Wan's solemnly said to Qin Xinfang: "So I have one more thing to ask sir."

   "Ma'am but it doesn't matter."

"If Baolu grows up in the future and my Li family is still there, let her transcribe a set and send it to the Li family. It's up to them to pass it on or sell it." Wan sighed: "The efforts of the ancestors of the Li family can't just be placed on Li Hong and his descendants."

   This set of medical books was brought to Qiongzhou Mansion by her and her husband with great pains and hardships, and almost all the money they brought along the way bribed the yamen.

   For the Wan family, it is no longer important whether the children of the Li family inherit this medical book. What is important is to pass on this medical book, no matter who it is.

   After Li Hong abandoned Baolu, Wan no longer trusted him, and naturally did not dare to hand over this set of medical books to him.

   Qin Xinfang is her husband's long-term friend. The two have been in close contact with each other in recent years. When she brought the medical book, she made up her mind to keep the book for the other party, no matter whether he agreed to the marriage or not.

Qin Xinfang was surprised by Wan's openness. He immediately understood that Wan's insistence on quickly betrothing the two children was not because they were afraid that their side would change their minds, but that her son was so unbearable that she could not take Baolu back, As for even such a family heirloom, he did not dare to leave him.

No matter how precious bracelets are, they are dead things. Qin Xinfang and He Zipei don't care, but books are endless treasures, especially family heirloom books like this family's own arrangement and writing, which contain rare medical knowledge in the world. It is the crystallization of the wisdom of several generations of the Li family.

   Li Baolu's dowry is indeed "rich".

   Qin Xinfang is not a stubborn person. After realizing the real reason for Wan's anxiety, he promised to get married tomorrow, and Li Baolu doesn't have to go back to Li's house.

   This is the advantage of a child bride. The etiquette can be the simplest, and the rules can be changed at will.

  Although the engagement ceremony was simpler, Qin Xinfang still solemnly took out a piece of paper to write Li Baolu's dowry list and signed it.

   He assured Wan Shi: "This list is in triplicate, I will take one, Jingyun will take one, Baolu will take one, and when she grows up, I will give her this set of books in person."

  Wan saluted Mr. Qin in a proper manner, Qin Xinfang hurriedly avoided, and said, "Since our two families are going to be engaged, then I am the younger generation of my wife. Wouldn't my wife's salute to me break me?"

   "This is what the husband and wife deserve," Wan said with red eyes: "These medical books are the efforts of my ancestors of the Li family. Not to mention it's just a blessing, you can also bear it."

  The three adults happily settled the marriage of the two children, and the two children who were watching were already bewildered.

   Gu Jingyun realized that he was going to have a daughter-in-law!

  Gu Jingyun turned his head to look at Li Baolu, saw her sluggish expression, and immediately pouted in disgust, but thinking that her parents were dead, he was not very stupid, so he reluctantly agreed.

  Li Baolu was staring at the silver ingot in her bag in a daze.

   It was the first time she knew that her grandmother had so much money in it. Since her grandmother had money, why did she send her out as a child bride?

   They can pay their own tax, the big deal is to live on their own without the second uncle.

  Li Baolu became hot inside.

   She was willing to obey her grandmother and be a child bride, but that was when they had no other choice.

  Second Uncle couldn't tolerate her for that little tax, so he might as well listen to his grandmother instead of being sent away by him or abandoned by him.

   But grandma is rich!

   They have money to pay the tax by themselves, so why do they still need to be child brides?

   Don't think that she wants to fool her when she is young. Although she has never seen the silver a few times, she still knows the four pieces of silver in the bag, each of which has twelve taels!

  Forty taels is enough for her to grow up with her grandmother!

  Li Baolu looked at her grandmother eagerly, not knowing what was going on in her head, she sent her out to be a child bride on the premise of having so much money, and even gave her all the money as a dowry!

Li Baolu was so sad that she couldn't help herself, so she pursed her lips and didn't speak. In Gu Jingyun's eyes, she felt that she was also shocked that the two were going to be a husband and wife. In Qin Xinfang and He Zipei's view, the child looked up and widened his eyes. Stupid and stupid, at first glance, they didn't understand what they said.
