To get rich quickly, you need to be simple and rough

Chapter 338: Love in the Red Mansion is as Deep as the Sea 19

Jia She rubbed his nose and said, "Who the hell scolded me?"

This made Yingchun chuckle: "Father's family is very happy. Big sister has been chosen as the ninth prince's concubine. Second Aunt is now busy all day and night to collect big sister's dowry.

It’s impossible for them to scold you, but it’s very likely that they will covet the money in your pocket.”

Jia She looked at his clever daughter and nodded in satisfaction: "You naughty thing, the standard for a legitimate daughter in the palace is 10,000 taels, but your grandfather gave a part of it to your aunt Min when she got married.

It was probably around 100,000 taels. The old lady even took out more than 100,000 taels from her own private savings, and the rest of the house, shop and farm were all provided by your grandfather.

In addition, the betrothal gift sent by the Lin family was already very high, and the mansion didn't keep a penny. Your aunt Min took it all away, and there was also a lot of dowry from relatives and friends.

At that time, our family was in good times, which is why your Aunt Min was able to have such a happy life. Who wouldn’t envy your Aunt Min at that time?

Your second aunt has been fighting with your aunt Min all her life, and now she wants to win over the other aunt in terms of dowry.

But it's just wishful thinking to dream of getting married. How can your second uncle compare with your grandfather?

Your grandfather can easily give out that much to marry off his daughter, but your second uncle can't even afford to support his own guests. You'll see if I get annoying from time to time."

When Jia She discovered that his daughter was not stupid, he also intended to cultivate her. This was because the value of cultivating his daughter could be arranged into marriage, and he could marry his daughter with his head held high and marry a wife with his head held low.

It is normal for him to have thoughts on this, and Mrs. Xing also has made a contribution. Although Mrs. Xing is petty, she has mastered the skills of pleasing Jia She over the years.

Mrs. Xing usually doesn't allow Yingchun to do needlework, and she always says that supporting those needlework people is just a waste of money?

It would take a lifetime for you, a child, to wear out your eyes. Only occasionally when she is free will Mrs. Xing find a special embroiderer to guide Yingchun in doing some handicrafts.

When embroidering a purse, a headband, or shoes, the materials used are all the best and the colors are also first-rate. Jia She has no bad habit of treating silk and satin cheaply.

The master's quality of life was top-notch, so he naturally accepted the things his daughter presented him with a gift of good taste and good materials, but he only said, "I have enough energy to wear them, so don't waste your energy and don't strain your eyes at such a young age!"

Then she went out proudly to show off to a group of second-generation rich people. With the accumulation of these little bits of favor, Jia Yingchun's current status is definitely incomparable to the past.

If someone like Sun Shaozu came to ask for Yingchun's hand in marriage, Jia She would spit in his face!

You don't care about whether you are a good match or not? You are not worthy of that and you will blurt it out!

They were all daughters, legitimate or illegitimate, and whether they were favored or not meant that the difference in treatment was huge. If Yingchun were to get married now, her dowry alone would be no less than Jia Yuanchun's.

Jia She has been competitive all his life. If he loses to his old rival, Lady Wang, in this matter, he will be humiliated to death!

Everyone's chances are three-tenths given by heaven, and the remaining seven-tenths are created by oneself. With Mrs. Xing's protection, Jia Yingchun was completely able to stand up.

With Jia She's favor, Jia Yingchun's life in the mansion was also the best.

Now that Jia She is in charge of the family finances, the annual allotment of cloth and jewelry that the people in the mansion are entitled to is all top-notch when it comes to Jia Yingchun.

Even Mrs. Xing followed suit. Now she had money in her hands, a daughter to her name, and a respectable family.

If you have everything, it is impossible for you to reach into the coffin to grab some money before you die. Now Mrs. Xing has the demeanor of a lady when she goes out to visit guests, walks around the mansion, speaks and does things.

Because of her behavior, Jia She was willing to give her respect. She would go to the main house on the first and fifteenth days of each month, and the servants did not dare to neglect her.

Reputation is earned by oneself. It is only after so many years of marriage to the Jia family that Mrs. Xing can finally live like a human being.

She now feels that Yingchun is her lucky star, born with good fortune. Everything has gone smoothly for her since she met Yingchun, and all her worries are gone.

Jia She and Yingchun were indeed very good at predicting things. Sure enough, the next day when the family went to pay their respects, they were kept by Grandmother Jia:

"The marriage of the eldest daughter Yuan is a major event for the entire family. This girl has worked hard in the palace to secure a good future.

As an uncle, you can't be stingy. If she gets better, the whole family will benefit from it!"

Jia She's eyes flickered. It was the same trick again. The Gongzhong that was fooled in the past lost two or three hundred thousand silver coins, and now it was the same trick again. Yuanchun was proud of herself because she had a biological mother, father and brothers.

It's none of his business as the uncle from the next room! But the old lady stared at him awkwardly as if she was about to bite off a piece of meat. Jia She sighed helplessly and dismissed the trouble:

"In addition to the 10,000 taels from the public treasury, I, as the eldest uncle, also gave 10,000 taels for the child's dowry. I also gave her the two shops in Houhai."

Grandmother Jia was a little dissatisfied but didn't know where to start. Ten thousand taels of real gold and silver was a lot no matter how it was placed. Although the shop in Houhai was not big, it was also a serious business.

But this was just a drop in the bucket for her eldest son, and she knew that, so she didn't know how to refute him: "That's great, but the big event of this clan must also be made known to the East Palace."

Grandmother Jia was determined to get the most out of Jia Jing, so she sent someone to invite him to her house to talk.

Jia Jing also paid 10,000 taels for two two-story houses in Taohua Lane.

Grandmother Jia nodded in satisfaction and took out two farms from her own dowry, making Yuanchun's dowry more decent.

In addition, a batch of high-quality materials in the jewelry and fabric warehouse were taken out, and the jewelry that Mrs. Wang had saved for Yuanchun since she was a child was now taken out and refashioned.

In addition to the dowry sent by various mansions and the rewards sent by the royal family, the Ministry of Rites sends a betrothal gift for marrying a principal wife, and the inner court sends a reward for taking a concubine. The difference between marrying and giving is so huge.

The rewards sent by the inner court were all fixed, but they were just placed on top of the dowry to make it look more decent.

Although taking a concubine was not as solemn as taking a principal wife, it was also lively. Everyone in the Jia family saw Jia Yuanchun off, and watching her get on the colorful sedan chair, Mrs. Wang's heart was gripped with pain.

Marrying a daughter into the royal family is almost the same as being dead. You will never see her again. The gears of fate in this life are turning quietly, which may not be a bad thing for Jia Yuanchun.

She was no longer in the miserable state described in the original novel, and now had the official title of concubine, which was enough for her to gain a firm foothold in the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

This was all instigated by Lin Ruhai, the butterfly. If he hadn't died, Jia Yuanchun would have been useful. People, don't be afraid of you because you are useful.

It is a blessing to be able to be sold at a good price. Those that have no use value are put aside.

In this life, the Ninth Prince no longer had the regret of being plotted against, and all that was left for Chunchun was the honor of taking advantage of something that was left. Moreover, seeing Jia Yuanchun's substantial dowry, he couldn't help but look up to the Jia family.
