Chapter 41 Let anyone rub
The head of the Ma family is the old lady, that is, the original owner's grandmother.
"It's rare that I'm so happy to be back so neatly today." Old lady Ma sat on the upper hand and said, "This year is a new year. Everyone, Rufeng said OK, when will the day come out?"
"Mom, over there..." He glanced at the old lady Luo and whispered: "Matchmaker Tian said that the Wang family wanted the bride price."
"Of course, the bride price should be given. If the child of the family is not raised by drinking, just agree." The old lady said, "Our family is not short of money."
These words made Ma Ruyue stunned for a moment. If she was not short of money, then Mao would sell the original owner.
"Mom, the Wang family wants much." Luo didn't dare to say anything this time. Matchmaker Tian came to his house on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. At that time, the old lady was not at home, so she didn't dare to tell her to the old lady. Otherwise, she wouldn't have thought about the year: "It's twenty taels."
What?
As soon as he said this, Ma Rufeng's face turned pale.
"The Wang family really dares to speak." The old lady's face turned red: "Who doesn't know that there is a bride price of six taels of silver is the best. She just needs twenty taels of taels of mouth. Her daughter is so expensive and so unique."
Ma Ruyue felt funny in her heart. Why didn’t you say it when you want the Jiang family’s twenty taels of silver?
"They said..." Luo swallowed his saliva, forget it, Cheng and Bucheng are just the same words, and the old ladies are the ones who decide: "They say that the daughter of our Ma family needs twenty taels to get married, and her Wang family is not worse than that of the Ma family, so..."
It turns out that the problem lies with the original owner.
"Can this be the same?" Old Mrs. Ma screamed, suddenly remembering that Ma Ruyue was beside her, suppressing her anger and changing her tone: "The Jiang family is a big family, and the 20 taels of bride price was agreed by Mrs. Jiang personally, and I didn't even mention it. Forget it, I won't say much. Tell the Wang family that the six taels are capped, and I will take a day to go out. If not, let's talk about the daughters of other families."
"Milk, don't our family have money?" Ma Rufeng couldn't help but say, "You have twenty taels."
"I have it, I'll give you the twenty taels? What should I do when Ruhai and the others get married?" Old Mrs. Ma frowned and said, "Don't say anything, six taels per person, this money cannot be used on you alone. This is the rule of my Ma family."
Ma Ruyue laughed, and after selling her daughter, she did not make wedding dresses for her son. She looked at Tan, and Tan looked surprised.
Obviously, she was swollen by the old lady's words, and she didn't expect that the situation would change its mind. She agreed to give her three sons. As a result, the twenty taels of silver were going to marry six granddaughters back. The big house, the second house and the third house have sons, but the fourth house only has two daughters, and there is no son yet.
What made Ma Ruyue sigh was that the old lady didn't tell herself at this time, but Tan didn't even dare to say anything.
"That's right, Rufeng, Ruhai and your Rufu brother are all going to get married. You, the eldest brother, have to feel sorry for your brothers. It's not easy to make money. It's good that our family can save two taels of silver a year. Our family is not a big family like the Jiang family." The person sitting next to Tan seemed to be the surname Lan, and he was the wife of the third family: "Second sister-in-law, do you think this is the case?"
The smart Lan family wants to make Tan family stand out.
Tan just nodded, looking at Old Lady Ma but didn't say anything.
"Okay, don't talk about this matter, each person is six taels. Rufeng is the boss who starts this, and the following are also done according to this rule." Old Mrs. Ma said, "As for the daughter getting married..." He glanced at Ma Ruyue: "We still have to depend on the situation of the bride price. Anyway, we can't ask for a price everywhere. Don't let the daughter marry into someone else's house and have to make money and pay back the debt."
He is quite good at planning for others.
"That's right, grandma feels most sorry for us grandchildren." Ma Ruqin said while carrying vegetables to the old lady: "Grandma, come and eat your favorite piece of bacon."
"Look at this girl Ruqin, she is a mother, her mouth is so sweet and she can coax it." Old Mrs. Ma enjoyed the meat and chewed it for a long time: "I'm old and I can't even chew the bacon."
"Grandma, if you can't chew, you will tore the bacon skin away." Ma Ruhua smiled and said, "Sister is really right. There are elbows there. Why don't you hold such a soft thing to the milk?" Then she sent a large chopstick into the old lady's bowl.
"Ruhua's eyes work very well." Old Mrs. Ma smiled and said, "I don't need to tear my skin this flesh."
Ma Ruyue was very accurate. The stewed meat in this bowl was basically lost by Ma Ruhua, and the rest was some meat residue.
If she hadn't been working in the kitchen, she would have been so greedy that she would have been so greedy that she would have been drooling.
"Ruyue, come, mom, scoop some soup for you." Seeing this, Tan took a spoon and scooped some soup for his daughter into a bowl.
"I said Ru Yue." Old Mrs. Ma put down her chopsticks: "Look at you, you're married, your temper has not changed. How old are you, and you still want your mother to scoop soup for you. This is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the day for the family to reunite, you can't speak in a silence. Tell me about you, and it's like we owe you something. Do you think of us as a family?"
What's going on?
Ma Ruyue was stunned for a moment and looked up at her.
Persimmons are just picking soft persimmons, can she still cause trouble if she doesn’t speak?
"Look at what you look like?" Old Mrs. Ma sighed: "Since you have been a child, you can do things, you just lose in this mouth. Now that you have married into the Jiang family, that's a big clan. If you still don't speak like this, won't others treat you as a mute?"
She was quite considerate of her in her words.
"Ruyue, you have to learn more from your elder sister and Ruhua. It looks so sweet to see how sweet your mouth is." Old Mrs. Ma said sadly: "Your temper has imitated your mother, and you have no bias at all."
Honestly, be honest, and don’t speak up when you are bullied. Isn’t this a good wife in your mind?
Is it so good to pick bones in the eggs?
Ma Ruyue couldn't help but sympathize with Tan, tell me what did you live like this?
My daughter couldn't protect her son's marriage, and she couldn't speak at all.
What surprised Ma Ruyue was that only Ma Rufeng opened his mouth from the man next table, and the other men treated it as decorations.
If it weren't for the call of someone to be the second uncle, Ma Ruyue wouldn't even recognize the original owner's father.
The thin middle-aged man ate with chopsticks and treated everything he said to him as if he couldn't understand.
Ma Ruyue saw it very clearly. Even so, he seemed a little tired and had a sick look on his face. It seemed that he would definitely obey Mrs. Ma.
Yes, people in this era emphasize filial piety, and the old lady is in charge, so he naturally can't say a word.
Ma Ruyue was still a little surprised when the Ma family was in this situation. They said that they followed their father at home, followed their husbands when they got married, and followed their sons when they died. Shouldn’t the boss of the Ma family be the ones who were the ones in the family? Or should the old lady keep the power and not let go?
