Chapter 653 Dowry
Old Lady Zhong nodded repeatedly at this time.
He even looked at Huiyin with some approval and said, "Huiyin, you did a good job... It's all thanks to you... If we hadn't called off the marriage this time, our Zhong family would be in big trouble..."
Old Lady Zhong looked at the ladies at the side and said, "Humph... look at how short-sighted you all are. It's really a joke..."
After hearing what Old Lady Zhong said, they all looked unhappy.
But Mrs. Zhong didn't waste her words...
He took Zhong Nantian with him and said, "It's a blessing, not a disaster. If it's a disaster, we can't avoid it... Let 's go ..."
After hearing what Old Lady Zhong said, Zhong Nantian couldn't help but smile...
"Mother, you are right... Let's go... It's a blessing, not a curse..."
After saying that, the group walked out.
Looking at the people in the other rooms standing there motionless...
Zhong Nantian said, "What's wrong with you? Are you not going?"
"We are concubines after all... We won't show up for this kind of thing..."
At this time, Mrs. Zhong looked at their appearance and couldn't help but snorted coldly, then said, "Now you know it's a concubine? Let's go together!"
Old Lady Zhong said in an unquestionable voice.
After hearing what Old Lady Zhong said, the people in the rooms nearby were all unhappy...
But there was no other choice but to follow...
After catching up with Old Lady Zhong, I walked to the door.
There were indeed Zhai's army at the door, but among these people, there were not only Zhai's army.
There was a team in wedding attire at the door...
After seeing this scene, both Old Lady Zhong and Zhong Nantian were stunned.
Including others who followed...
An old man led the group and walked over.
Old Lady Zhong also recognized the old man at a glance, and said with a smile, "Butler Fan, what brings you here... and why are you dressed like this... what is this..."
"Congratulations... Congratulations..." Butler Fan from the Zhai family walked over with a smile on his face.
Old Madam Zhong was completely confused by the questions asked by Butler Fan.
"Congratulations? Where does the joy come from?"
The butler Fan of the Zhai family said, "The Fourteenth Master of our Zhai family has taken a fancy to the daughter of your Zhong family... He is here to propose marriage first..."
After Butler Fan finished speaking, Old Lady Zhong was stunned for a moment, then she said, "Engagement? And... the Fourteenth Master? Butler Fan, I'm afraid you are kidding me... The thirteen masters of the Zhai family have all started families and established careers... I've never heard that the old man of the Zhai family is giving birth to a son... Where did the Fourteenth Master come from?"
After hearing what Old Lady Zhong said, Zhang Rou, who was standing by, hurried over excitedly.
"Old lady, you may not know yet. Yesterday, the old man of the Zhai family held a banquet at the Zhai family and adopted a son. He is the only adopted son of the old man Zhai and is considered a member of the Zhai family... Moreover, the age of the adopted son is similar to that of our daughter..."
Zhang Rou said excitedly.
After listening to this, Mrs. Zhong's face suddenly became interesting.
"Oh? There is also this matter... Butler Fan, please come in... Welcome, welcome..." Old Lady Zhong warmly invited Butler Fan in...
Butler Fan said, "Originally, we wanted our master to come forward... but our master would feel neglected... so, let me, an old guy, come to propose marriage on his behalf... Wouldn't you mind?"
After hearing what Butler Fan said, Old Lady Zhong couldn't help but smiled and said, "No... No... Master Zhai is too polite..."
Speaking, he invited Butler Fan to go in...
…
At this time, Zhong Huiyin walked over with an indifferent look on her face.
There is no other reason, so this matter is naturally irrelevant.
Because, obviously, when they came to propose marriage, she was still engaged.
Although the engagement was cancelled, it was clear that the Zhai family didn’t know…
So, this time, Zhong Weiwei from the second house said to Huiyin, "Huiyin, did you see... the Zhai family came to propose marriage... it's obvious who they are targeting... it's clear at a glance... you have always claimed to be the legitimate daughter... so what? If I get married to the Zhai family, the first thing I will do is to abolish you, the legitimate daughter..."
Zhong Xinran said to Zhong Weiwei, "Hmph... Second sister, you are really too confident... Why do you think it must be you... In terms of appearance, I am also better than you... Moreover, in terms of family background, our grandfather's Liu family is more prominent than your Wang family... The person that the Zhai family wants to marry must be me..."
Finally, Zhong Rourou said, "Okay, two sisters... It seems that they are here to find me... After all, I am quite famous in Lingshan City... A poem I wrote before was also widely circulated in Lingshan City... It is obvious that the Fourteenth Master of the Zhai family heard about my talent and wanted to marry me..."
Looking at these three people, they are about to quarrel over something that they have not even glanced at.
Zhong Huiyin shook her head helplessly.
And ignore them.
"A ten thousand year old blood peony..."
"One million spiritual stones..."
"Ten nourishing elixirs..."
…
After entering the yard, I heard the Zhai family reading out the list of gifts for the engagement.
Mrs. Zhong's face was smiling so much that it almost turned into a flower...
After seeing this scene, Old Lady Zhong couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay... okay... okay... Butler Fan... aren't these too expensive..."
Butler Fan said, "Mrs. Zhong, you are too polite... This is nothing... This is just the engagement gift, and there will be betrothal gifts for the engagement and the wedding... Compared to those, these are nothing... My master asked me to tell you that although our Fourteenth Master is an adopted son, he is like our master's biological son and enjoys the same conditions as all the masters of the Zhai family... So, please don't worry..."
After listening to this, Old Lady Zhong smiled and said, "Okay... okay... okay... But, I don't know, Butler Fan, which girl in our Zhong family are you promising?"
When Mrs. Zhong asked this, Butler Fan suddenly looked embarrassed, and then he said to Mrs. Zhong, "Mrs. Zhong, do you have many girls waiting to be married?"
Old Lady Zhong waved her hand.
Zhong Weiwei, Zhong Xinran, and Zhong Rourou walked out...
Zhong Huiyin originally wanted to stay inside, but was pushed out by Zhong Nantian...
"Butler Fan, our sister Huiyin has an engagement, and it should not be the one chosen by the Fourteenth Master..." Zhong Weiwei said with disdain on her face when she saw Zhong Huiyin coming out.
Butler Fan said, "Of course... We in the Zhai family never do anything to take away someone 's good fortune... This girl should leave..."
Seeing Butler Fan say this, Zhong Weiwei and the others immediately showed a smug look on their faces...
