(The fourth update is delivered! Thank you for your rewards, monthly tickets and subscription support from brothers such as Taxue Rufen for your help, thank you everyone!)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Cui and Zhang family had already chosen a welcome date for the marriage of their children last time, and the time was set on the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month. Wang wanted to marry Shisan Niang early, but he also sold it at a good price. One thousand taels of gold, and the 10% stake in Xiangfangfang that he received from the Zhang family last time, Wang thought that Zhang Sanlang's son-in-law was also very good.

As for Zhang Sanlang's status, that's better. Cui Shisanniang is not her biological child anyway. Zhang Sanlang is competing with the Cui family, so that she can directly deduct Zheng's dowry, and at that time, she can order Cui Shisanniang the farm shop to make a dowry, and she can save a lot of dowry.

Therefore, when Wang heard that Zhang Sanlang offered a plow to the court, Zhang Tieqin was named a founding man, and Zhang Sanlang was also appointed as a Yunqiwei, she was very unhappy.

She was not happy at all. When Choi Shanfu returned home, she rushed over in anger.

"The Zhang family is now awarded a title and honor, and the Thirteenth Lady is also rampant with me. She came here today and told me that she would take away Zheng's dowry."

"Is that true?" Cui Shanfu was a little abnormal today and did not immediately agree with his wife Wang.

"She is really delusional. Even if Zhang San gets honor, he is only a little Yunqiwei. In another twenty years, he may not be able to ascend to the male title of Fengxian County. She wants to be a baroness, but it is still too early. The little hoof is becoming more and more distorted."

"The Zhang family did get up very quickly, but so, there are those Shandong upstarts behind his family."

Cui Shanfu took Wang's hand and smiled, "We can't have a too much relationship with Thirteen Niang. After all, she is our daughter. Zheng's dowry can be given some for her to dowry."

"What?" Wang's phoenix eyebrows stood upside down.

"What are you anxious about? The Zhang family is so smooth now. We have done too much, which not only makes Thirteen Niang unhappy, but also offends the Zhang family, but also offends Qin Qiong and other upstarts. Why bother? What's more, I agreed with the Zhang family that Thirteen Niang would get married and take a farm and a shop to get a dowry. We'll get a dowry in a farm and a cloth shop."

But Wang was reluctant to let it go.

"What are you doing for so much? You really think that your family is worth a mountain of gold and silver. The last time you bought the yellow bun recipe for that yellow bun, you spent 100 taels of gold, and this time you invested in the soap shop, and another 3,000 guan. The family's money was not blown by the strong wind, so you added a grain store to a cloth shop. The restaurant didn't give it to. Now the business of Fumanlou is in good condition."

"It's too little, I have to give one to Tianzhuang."

"Is it easy to buy a place? Is it better to give it to 100 acres?"

Choi Shanfu wants to say something else.

But Wang had already shook his sleeves, "There is no more, otherwise, you can use a knife to cut my body. Don't just care about Thirteen Niang. Thirteen Niang is your daughter. Are the three sons and five daughters I gave birth to with you no longer considered your children?"

"That's it." Choi Shanfu said vaguely, but he pressed not to mention it.

Two days later, Zheng Shanguo visited.

Wang pulled Cui Shanfu and said, "It must be the little hoof that invited me. I tell you, no matter what the surname Zheng said, don't pay attention to him anyway."

Cui Shanfu smiled bitterly, "He is Thirteen Niang's uncle. If he comes forward, we still have to give some face."

Compared to Cui Shanfu, who is now just a little Kuzhen, Zheng Shanguo is the left concubine of the crown prince, and now he has just been prosecuted to the Dali Temple Minister and serves as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

What does Dali Temple Minister do? He is in charge of justice.

The Cui family was a little unreasonable about Zheng’s dowry. Now Zheng Shan is in private. He is the brother of Zheng and the uncle of Thirteen Niang. Yu Gong, he is an important minister of the court and a minister of Dali Temple.

If he really annoyed him, Choi Shanfu would definitely suffer.

"I've seen it a long time ago. You just want to give all your property to Thirteen Niang as a dowry. I'm not alive anymore. In your eyes, we mothers are not as good as one Thirteen Niang."

Although the Wang family is also from a famous family, it is no different from a rural village woman when she is scattered. Although this method is vulgar, it is practical.

Sure enough, as soon as this move was used, Cui Shanfu had to give up the battle and beg for mercy.

In the living room of the Cui family, Zheng Shanguo was talking to Thirteen Niang.

"Don't worry, my uncle will definitely make the decision for you."

"Thank you uncle."

"What do you thank me for? This is what I should do. I didn't take good care of you before and owe you. Saburo came to me two days ago, and he said it well, we are not short of this dowry money, but that is left to you by your mother, and it belongs to you, and no one can take it away."

Although the Cui and Zheng families were married for several generations and had a close relationship, Zheng Shanguo was willing to turn against each other for his niece. He was a minister of Dali and the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and was also the left son of the crown prince. Do you still have to be afraid that the Qin prince’s treasury would not be able to do it?

This time he came to be polite first and then soldier. If the one named Cui is really shameless, then the one named Cui is only found by him.

Anyway, her sister has been dead for many years, and now Thirteen Niang is going to get married and leave the Cui family, so he doesn't have so much to worry about. Although his mother is a woman from the Cui family, she has left the Cui family for many years and is old this year.

Even if I don’t interact with the Cui family in the future, it doesn’t matter.

Choi Shanfu smiled and Zheng Shanguo also got up.

Both of them were smiling, but Zheng Shanguo knew that the two cousins ​​had not returned to their youth decades ago. At that time, the two cousins ​​had a very good relationship, and they played and studied together, and hunted together, and their relationship was so good that they could not be better.

Later, Zheng Shanguo's mother married her daughter to Cui Shanfu, and the two cousins ​​even more kinship.

"Yingying, go back to your room, I'll have a good chat with your uncle."

Thirteen Niang nodded, bowed and said she back.

Zheng Shanguo and Choi Shanfu each sat down.

Zheng Shanguo chose a relatively relaxed position to sit down and slowly drank tea.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and Choi Sun-fu sat aside, not knowing what to say. The two cousins ​​who used to talk about were now sitting together, but they couldn't even find the opening remarks.

"Like Thirteen Niang's age, we lived an unrestrained life at that time." Zheng Shanguo said.

"I still remember one year when we went to Luoyang for hunting and encountered a robber who blocked the road. Do you remember?"

"Thirteen bandits."

"Well, thirteen bandits, and we were only two of us at that time, and two followers each brought. Six to thirteen, those bandits were very fierce. Do you still remember the robbery they shouted at that time?"

"Remember, the one-eyed bandit leader suddenly jumped out of the grass on the roadside and shouted, "I'm driving this road, and I'm planting this tree. If you want to pass by now, you can buy money for roads!"

"Hahaha!"

"Those guys shocked my horse at that time."

Speaking of those youthful past, Cui Shanfu also had nostalgia in his eyes. "At that time, I had already taken off my bow before that guy finished speaking. A group of bandit minions behind him had just run out, and I had already set off the bow and shot the only eye left of the one-eyed bandit's head blinded with one arrow."

"You were in good health at that time, and you didn't have the big belly you are now, especially the best archery skills." Zheng Shanguo said.

"Hey, I'm old in a blink of an eye. I'm panting when riding a horse now, and my bow is not as good as before."

"Well, decades have passed, and many things have changed. I still remember that when you first got married to your eighth sister, you looked like you were in love with each other. I also remember that when Thirteenth Lady was born, you spoiled her so much."

Choi Shanfu was a little embarrassed.

Zheng Shanguo's face became increasingly ugly and his expression was sharp.

"The eighth sister died early, that's because she has a poor life. I don't blame you, but Thirteen Niang's life is so bad. She beat Xiao Wu Niang, you re-string again. After re-stringing, she only cares about her new love but forgets her old love. Even Thirteen Niang has forgotten. After so many years, Thirteen Niang has been suffering like this. Now she is going to get married, but you are not level and choose a husband of a good match, but you are not the only one who chooses a good marriage. You are not only selling marriage, but also greedy for the dowry left by the eighth sister to Thirteen Niang. Cui Shanfu, are you embarrassed, are you still shameful?"

Speaking of excitement, Zheng Shanguo slapped several tables with one palm.

I slapped the table, and it was already very unceremonious.

Choi Shanfu's face was also very ugly.

"This is my housework." He replied with a dark face.

Zheng Shanguo angrily said, "This is not your housework. You are Sanniang's father. You do have the right to choose a son-in-law for her. However, you are not qualified to embezzle the eighth sister's dowry. If you dare to swallow it, I will never agree. I am not only Thirteenth sister's uncle, but I am also a Dali noble. In both public and private, you should not miss the eighth sister's dowry to Thirteenth sister. If you don't believe it, you can try it. I will personally put you in prison. At that time, the bunch of children you and Wang will dare to marry him!"

"you!"

"I can say it, but I can do it!" Since all my face was torn apart, Zheng Shanguo no longer showed mercy. For some people, if you show him mercy, he thought you were afraid of him.

Choi Shanfu's face changed, but he was still unable to say anything harsh in the end.

When it really came to that point, as long as Zheng Shanguo made up his mind, he could indeed make him miserable, and even ruin his Cui family.

"Okay, very good. Didn't Shisan Niang just want Zheng's dowry? Okay, I'll give it to it. When Zheng married into my Cui family, he brought all the dowry. A restaurant, a grain shop, a silk and satin farm, a 500-acre land farm, and gold, silver jewelry, silk, silk, and some servants. I'll give it to Shisan Niang, and she can take a lot of money to the Zhang family."

"You are finally satisfied now, aren't you?"

Zheng Shanguo almost cursed when he heard Cui Shanfu's words. The dowry brought by the eighth sister back then was indeed these, but over the years, these industries have already increased their profits and profits several times. Those industries were managed by the eighth sister, and they had nothing to do with the Cui family. They were just the contract letters that Cui Shanfu helped Thirteen Niang manage the industry.

Now Choi Shanfu is so shameless.

Zheng Shanguo tried his best to suppress his anger and he controlled himself.

That part of the Cui family was unreasonable, but it was difficult to argue for a while. Even if they sued, they might not be able to win.

Zheng Shanguo also wanted to leave a line for Thirteen Niang, and she turned against her completely. In the future, Thirteen Niang will have a family hard to come back, and her reputation for being disobedient and unfilial is also unpleasant.

"Remember to keep your word and say goodbye!" Zheng Shanguo stood up, shook his sleeves and left.

"No!" Cui Shanfu snorted coldly with gritted teeth.
