Chapter five hundred and fourth wit

The newlyweds, the husband-in-law's family gives private property to the groom's official, and the mother-in-law's family gives dowry, just wanting them to live a better life after marriage. So sometimes, the two families will discuss what the bride's family will buy and what the bride's official's family will buy.

These are usually agreed upon after being hired.

Mrs. He looked at the point where her daughter pointed and said, "No..."

When Li Dongzhi heard this, his eyes suddenly froze and he said sternly: "Then discuss with the matchmaker quickly. These three hundred books cannot be used as dowry!"

"Why?" Mrs. He and Mrs. Zhu said in unison. Mrs. He even looked up and wanted to scold her daughter, but her heart trembled when she was harshly looking at her. She didn't say anything to her lips.

"Although our family is not a scholar, it is not as good as not even affording books." Li Dongzhi said in a cold voice, "What's going on with three hundred dowryes? Do you tell others that our family's foundation is too weak, or is it that her Gao family is a great scholar in Shanxi who has passed on the etiquette of poetry, books and etiquette from generation to generation?"

Mrs. He and Mrs. Zhu didn't say anything for a long time. When they calmed down and savored Li Dongzhi's words, they had to admit that she made sense.

Mrs. Zhu looked at Mrs. He and saw that Mrs. He had not yet come to her senses, so she had to say, "Don't there still be a few calligraphy and paintings? When the princess got married, there were also calligraphy and paintings as dowry..."

Li Dongzhi's face was slightly dark, and he said, "The princess's calligraphy and paintings are different. The princess's dowry is all the ancient books, and most of them are the ones that the princess likes very much and often reads them, so he brought them here. The calligraphy and paintings are even more expensive. Even Li Jieyuan once praised them and even found his elder brother's friend to talk about his love. He wanted to copy them in our study room, but he dared not borrow them home, for fear of a mistake, so he could not afford to accompany him. Can Sister Gao's books and calligraphy and paintings be compared with the eldest sister-in-law's?"

"This..." Mrs. Zhu was embarrassed.

When the Li family was discussing the betrothal gift, the Li family said nothing. Now that they are about to take the dowry, they have done such a thing. How did she tell the matchmaker and how did she tell the people of the Gao family?

In Mrs. He's impression, books are good things. Some families have not collected 300 books in their lifetime, so when the Gao family proposed to marry 300 books, she was quite happy. But now after hearing what Li Dongzhi said, I think what Li Dongzhi said makes sense. She was not an independent person at first, and she was even more undecisive at this time. She was in a state of mind and couldn't speak for a long time.

Li Dongzhi knew her mother's personality and knew that if she had made a decision today, she would have to be like this.

"We might as well invite my dad to come over." She said calmly, "Dad is very knowledgeable. Even if he is unsure of his mind, isn't Mr. Liu still around him?"

That's right!

Mrs. He's eyes lit up.

I pushed this matter to Li Changqing, and no matter how I deal with it in the end, it had nothing to do with her.

"Then go and invite your father over." She urged repeatedly.

Li Dongzhi nodded to his eldest maid Xiaohe.

Xiaohe ran out in a flash.

Soon, Li Changqing came with Xiaohe, and Liu Li came with Li Changqing.

Li Dongzhi sighed in his heart.

Such a simple thing, when it comes to studying, his father is like a countryman entering the city, without any suggestion.

Fortunately, her father was also a smart man, so he invited Mr. Liu.

Mrs. He hurriedly told Li Changqing about the matter.

Li Changqing was also stunned.

He looked at Liu Li.

Liu Li was silent for a moment before he slowly said: "This was originally a custom in ancient times. At that time, the characters were engraved on bamboo slips, and it was hard to find a single piece. If a girl from a family got married, it would be a big deal..."

Li Changqing was so anxious that he smoked. He had no patience to listen to Liu Li's slow circles. He quickly interrupted Liu Li's words: "Don't talk about the past, just say now, what should we do about this?"

Liu Li is an aide, and his responsibility is to give Li Changqing advice, not to make decisions on behalf of Li Changqing. Although Li Changqing said this, he still said calmly: "Miss Winter Solstice is right! Although there are families like this, they are all poor families. The woman is a family of poetry, books and farming for a hundred years. In order to help her son-in-law study, she will accompany her books. If the husband's family is rich, it must be like the princess. Dowry is a work of handed down from generation to generation. It can be used as a heirloom for family treasures, which is a symbol of the woman's status, not to help her husband's family..."

Li Changqing's face turned blue.

Liu Li hurriedly said, "Everything depends on the person. We have not seen the book of Miss Gao's dowry. Maybe Mr. Fu Yu's collection over the years may not be necessary. When I see this, it is better to ask the Gao family's family for any misunderstandings, it will be bad!"

Before following Li Changqing, Gao Fuyu was just a poor scholar who was in poverty and had no choice but to eat. What kind of treasure can he have? Besides, the Gao family is not without a son. If it were a treasure, he would leave it to Gao Miaohua. How could he give Gao Miaorong?"

Li Changqing's face looked even more ugly.

And usually whoever comes up with the idea will solve it.

Li Changqing pulled Liu Li and said, "We don't understand this kind of thing either, so I ask Mr. Liu to go to the Gao family and discuss it with Mr. Fu Yu."

Isn’t this let him offend people?

Liu Li smiled bitterly.

Li Dongzhi suddenly said, "Mr. Liu, I think no matter what these three hundred books are, they are not suitable for writing in dowry lists. Just like my sister-in-law, she only registers the items she usually plays with, but is not in dowry lists. My sister-in-law also said that she will take these things away in a hundred years, so don't bother future generations... You can also say that. If Sister Gao likes those three hundred books, she often reads them and registers them in the dowry list. This way, calligraphy and painting are fragile things, and if there is some damage, it will be very troublesome. Why not re-wrote a dowry list."

After saying this, Liu Li looked at the Li family with admiration.

He smiled and praised, "We all know that adults are resourceful, but we didn't expect that the eldest lady is also a woman."

Li Dongzhi was embarrassed.

Li Changqing looked very clear, because Gao Miaorong's troubles dissipated a lot, and said humbly: "Where, where!" Suddenly, he thought of the change that Li Dongzhi had only gone to Xi'an, and couldn't help but say, "This is also what her sister-in-law taught."

Liu Li thought of Li Ji, who is now lively and cheerful, and was full of energy, and nodded and smiled: "The princess has a good personality, and this is also a blessing for the Li family."

"No!" Li Changqing did not hide his satisfaction with Jiang Xian at all and said with a smile, "I always think that our ancestral tomb was buried well. I had planned to hire a Feng Shui master to move my grandfather and grandmother and my parents' tombs. Later, I heard that the empress dowager was the leader and gave Zong Quan and the princess a marriage, but I was so scared that I was sweating in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the Feng Shui master I had asked before to take Qiao and I hung it, otherwise the tomb would be moved, and the fortune would be gone today. Sometimes I thought, don't say that, our family is really lucky, otherwise why didn't this Feng Shui master look for, and the Feng Shui master I found picked up Qiao again, but he couldn't move my ancestral tomb in a place, which shows that our family is really blessed by the Bodhisattva."
