The conversation turned to the dowry on May 24, when Ximen Qing came. On the twenty-sixth day, twelve bald monks came to pray and pray. This is all the old aunt and grandmother said to receive the old gift, not a single thing can be left behind. The day before Meng Sanjie got married, Zhang Si shouted to call out the neighbors to embarrass Meng Sanjie.
At this time, Sister-in-law Xue, leading the small secretary of ximen Qing's family and twenty officers and soldiers borrowed from the county armed forces department, went to Meng Sanjie's house to move Meng Sanjie's bed tent and the bag containing the dowry. Stopped by Zhang Si, he told Sister-in-law Xue not to carry it first, he had something to say.
Calling the neighbors to come in together and sit down in front of Meng Sanjie, Zhang Sixian said: "The neighbors and grandmothers are here, I should not have said anything about Zhang Long, but Meng Sanjie's man, Yang Zongxi, and his brother Yang Zongbao, are my nephews." Unfortunately, the eldest nephew Yang Zongxi died young, leaving a family property. If there are old people in their house, I don't have to worry about it. But now Third Sister Meng wants to get married. What about my little nephew Yang Zongbao? The responsibility for this upbringing is all on me. He was born to your husband's mother. Doesn't this property have his share? Today the neighbors are here, you open your dowry bag, let everyone see, is it all taken away from the family property? Let's take a look. ”
When Sister Meng San listened to Zhang Si say this, the family boat turned over in front of the property, and the tears of grievance fell down and said: "Listen to the neighbors, what my uncle said is not right. I didn't mean to kill my man. (Pan Jinlian, who are you talking about?) It's not easy for me to be a widow, lick my face today and marry someone else. Did my husband have any money when he was alive? Everybody knows. Even if I saved a few pieces of silver, I used it on this house, and I couldn't move the house, so I left it to my uncle. I didn't take a single piece of home furnishings, that is, there were three or four hundred silver arrears outside, and I gave the IOU to my uncle. Even with the entanglement of marriage, I also borrowed, what money is there to take away? ”
Zhang Si said, "You said you didn't have silver two, so you didn't have silver two?" You open this dowry bag and let us check it. If there is a you just take away, I don't want yours. Third Sister Meng said, "Do you even have to look at my shoes?" Everyone was talking about it, and the old aunt and grandmother of the Yang family came out from behind with crutches.
The crowd suddenly fell silent and asked the old aunt and grandmother how they were. The old aunt and grandmother returned a blessing. He sat down with everyone and said, "Neighbors, I am Yang Zongxi's aunt and blood relative, I should have the qualifications to speak, right?" It was my nephew who died, my nephew who was alive, and it hurt to bite any of the ten fingers. Nowadays, don't say that Meng Sanjie's man has no money, he just has more than 100,000 taels of silver. It has nothing to do with you, and you are just watching. This dream third sister is a woman's family, and there is no income, you stop her from marrying, how can she live? The neighbors listened and said, "Grandma, what you said is right." ”
The old aunt and grandmother continued, "Do you still want to leave behind the things that the third sister's mother's family has married?" The third sister did not give me any benefits behind my back, you said, I protect her, but also to be fair. To tell you the truth, I will not hide from you that my niece and daughter-in-law have feelings and righteousness in their daily lives. I am very filial to me, and I am very reluctant to marry my wife. Good people are also easy-going, otherwise the old woman, I will not come out to help her. ”
Zhang Si looked at the old aunt and grandmother and said, "You are really a good and fair host, and people say that it is not profitable to get up early." Phoenix can not rest in the place where there is no treasure" Just this sentence, let Yang Lao's grandmother suddenly burst into flames, her face rose red, pointing at Zhang Si and scolding: "Zhang Laosi, you are less nonsense here, although I am not the Yang family's boss, your mouthy and tongue-heavy thing is which onion and which garlic of the Yang family?" ”
Zhang Si replied, "Although I am not from the Yang family, my two nephews were born to my sister. You old immortal thing, the woman will elbow out, favoring Third Sister Meng. Set fire to me, and put water on Sister Meng Shan's head. ”
The old aunt said, "You shameless old dog, she is a young woman, you leave her at home, what do you really want to do?" Did he take advantage of the silence in the middle of the night to have a bad heart for her? Covet his family wealth and take it for yourself?
Zhang Si retorted, "Blood spewing people, I am not coveting the beauty of the third sister, let alone their family wealth, but I am afraid that my nephew Yang Zongbao will not be able to live a long time when he grows up." Unlike you old coffin, there is no tomorrow today!
The old aunt scolded, "Zhang Si, you faceless old slave, Old Wang Eight, open your broken mouth." Bullshit! Be careful that tomorrow dies and no one carries the coffin. ”
Zhang Si scolded back, "You old immortal thing, earn this ill-gotten wealth." No wonder there are no children and no daughters. ”
At this time, the old aunt and grandmother were soared by Zhang Siqi's blood pressure, and scolded: "Zhang Si, you are an old thief, pigs and dogs are not as good as things, I have no children and no daughters, and it is much better than your mother going to the temple to sleep with Taoist monks and monks." At that time, you were still a doll who ate. The two quarreled about to move, thanks to the neighbors pulling and persuading: "His fourth uncle, you let the old aunt and grandmother!" ”
Sister-in-law Xue saw the two quarreling together, led Ximen Qingjia's Xiao Si Companion and more than twenty officers and soldiers, taking advantage of the chaos to carry Meng Sanjie's bed tent and dowry bag, carry it, and move away like a gust of wind. Zhang Si was entangled with his grandmother and watched as things were removed, so angry that he could not speak for half a day. The neighbors saw that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and reassured the old aunt and Zhang Si to go home separately.
On the second day of the first month of June, Ximen Qing sent someone to carry a large flower palanquin to marry Third Sister Meng. The younger uncle Yang Zongbao, with his hair tied in a bun and wearing a light gauze coat, rode on a high-headed horse and happily sent his sister-in-law to marry. Ximen Qing gave Yang Zongbao a brocade horse and a jade belt as a thank you.
Meng Sanjie's two handmaidens, Xianglan and Xiao Luan, both came over and made the bed and folded the quilt, and the little servant Qin Tong was only 15 years old, and was also brought over to serve the two of them. On the third day, the yang family's old aunt and grandmother brought Two sisters-in-law of Meng Sanjie, Meng Dajie and Meng Erjie, to celebrate Ximen Qing. Ximen Qing honored Aunt Yang with seventy taels of silver and two good horses of cloth, and the two families became relatives. Ximen Qing packed up thirteen houses in the West Wing and gave them to Meng Sanjie to live in. Meng Sanjie ranked third in the family, the number of yulou, so that the servants up and down the family called her third aunt. Just married, Ximen Qing lived in Meng Sanjie's room for three consecutive days.
