The Reborn Wife is Farming - Chapter 1413 Extra Story Fan Zijin (30)
And Fan Zijin was tailor-made for the Xia family’s standards.
First of all, Fan Zijin was tall and straight, handsome and clear, which was what the Xia family immediately fell in love with.
Secondly, the other party’s young Jinshi, a nineteen-year-old Jinshi is a young talent no matter where he is placed, and it goes without saying that he is knowledgeable. In the past, their Xia family didn’t even dare to think about it, even if they wanted to catch their son-in-law, they would only dare to catch Ju Ren.
Third, they checked what Fan Zijin had done over the years, and there was nothing wrong with his character.
In the end, Fan Zijin said that he was not an official, but as we all know, Fan Zijin is very talented in business and has many properties under his name. Since he is not an official, he is more likely to be a Confucian businessman.
As we all know, merchants are weaker than officials, even for famous Confucian merchants.
So as long as the Xia family does not fall, Fan Zijin will treat the Xiao Xia family better, even if it is to not offend the Xia family.
The Xia family’s request for this is very simple, as long as the daughter lives more comfortably.
But Xiao Xia’s character is weak, her comfort is nothing more than not being tortured. Because of his father, Fan Zijin vowed to respect his wife in the future and not let his children suffer the pain he once suffered. It’s easy for him.
Fan Zijin secretly took a look at Xiao Xia’s family, seeing her gentle features and graceful eyes, he liked her even more in his heart, and when he came back, he went to his mother and asked her to propose marriage.
The Xia family was stunned, staring at her son and said: “You want to marry a girl from the Xia family? Have you met her?”
Fan Zijin nodded, and said calmly, “Mother just asks someone to propose a marriage. Their family should be satisfied with me.”
They all expressed their favor, can you be dissatisfied?
But Xia Shi was not very satisfied, she hesitated and said: “But this girl’s temperament is too gentle, I’m afraid she can’t bear the responsibility of the clan’s wife.”
“Are you afraid that she won’t be able to fight Liu’s and the others?” Fan Zijin sneered, “They have their father backing them up, so even I would stay away? So she doesn’t have to fight them, she just needs to take good care of me and be gentle. Just right.”
Seeing her son’s insistence, the Xia family obviously would not change her mind, so she could only worry about obedience and go to Xia’s family to propose marriage.
The Xia family didn’t agree, because although the adults were satisfied, they still had to ask Xiao Xia to take a look at Fan Zijin, so that she would be satisfied as well.
Fan Zijin had no objection, dressed handsomely and followed his mother to Xia’s house to meet people. When he was standing in the main room and answering Xia’s father, he could sense that there was someone hiding behind the screen.
Xiao Xia is already seventeen, not too young. Other girls start getting engaged at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and start getting married when they are fifteen. At her age, they are mothers of one or two children. Very anxious.
She herself was a little anxious, but she knew that her parents didn’t engage her because they cared about her, and they couldn’t find a suitable one.
She thought that at her age she could no longer find many outstanding people, but she never expected that Fan Zijin was such a handsome and talented person.
Xiao Xia’s small face flew up to Xiayun, completely red.
Xia’s mother on the side couldn’t help but pursed her lips and smiled, and became more and more satisfied with Fan Zijin.
So the marriage of the two families was settled.
Because Fan Zijin and Xiao Xia were both older, it took only four months from engagement to marriage, which was extremely fast.
But the wedding was grand.
Needless to say, Xiao Xia, her parents have saved her dowry since she was born, and her two elder brothers have also contributed a lot, so the dowry is so rich that it can be called a red dowry.
On the Fan family’s side, even though Fan Siwen was dissatisfied with this son, he still gave him the dignity that should be given to his son-in-law, so the dowry he prepared for Fan Zijin was 30% higher than that of Fan Zixiao’s marriage back then.
Although the proportion is still more than half less than that of other families, it is still quite a lot. In addition, the Xiaoxia family only has such a son, and she has the entire Xia family’s property as a dowry, so she only needs to take out a little to make up for the shortfall. superior.
The most important thing is that Fan Zijin himself has outstanding abilities. He has been in business for six years, and he always has some private collections. What’s more, all the trophies Qi Haoran won in the war are in his hands. Things, his betrothal gift is one of the best in the capital city where rich and powerful go everywhere.
There are some treasures that cannot be bought by money, and outsiders can guess where they came from at a glance, “This Fan Siwen is stingy to his son, but his two nephews are very generous to this cousin. There are many who can buy it.” The family heirloom treasure, even said to take it out and took it out.”
“This general is really rich. It is said that when Brother Qi Xiuyuan attacked Jingzhao Mansion, the dignitaries of the Kingdom of Jin were too late to retreat and left behind many treasures, and those were things that the imperial court could not take with them when they fled south. It belongs to the family…”
“Pfft, does the aristocratic family dare to ask for it back now? Whoever snatches it will count. Do you think the military general is willing to ask for these things? Isn’t it because all the gold and silver in the warehouse have been transferred, and only these things are left that cannot be eaten, gnawed or sold?” thing……”
“Yeah, the world is in chaos now, everyone is busy hoarding food and gold and silver, who has the leisure to buy these antique utensils and calligraphy and paintings?”
One of the onlookers couldn’t see it, and said, “Aren’t we discussing Mr. Fan’s betrothal gift?”
“I counted just now. His betrothal gift was 120 units, and it seems that the Fan family gave out only 36 units. It seems that the rumors are true, and this Master Fan’s heart is really out of bounds. “
The Xia family didn’t keep too much of these dowry gifts, and most of them were stuffed into the dowry gifts for the daughter to carry back. Of course, the dowry gifts turned around and entered the Fan’s house, and became the daughter’s private property, and would be directly passed on to her children in the future. .
In the future, no matter whether the Fan family is divided or the property is divided, this part will belong to Xiaoxia’s private property, which is one of the reasons why the bride price is very important when marrying a daughter.
Those who love their daughters will generally ask for more dowry, and then transfer most of the dowry to their daughters. In this way, together with the original dowry, the daughter’s private property will be very rich, which also shows that the husband’s family values her.
The Xia family was like this. They received a dowry gift of 120 units, and immediately felt a headache. They quickly enlarged the box and repacked the dowry as much as possible. Bring it into your in-law’s house, and then let the Fan family see it and stamp it in the yamen.
This is a private dowry, there is no way, the dowry is too much to fit in.
The amount of dowry is related to status.
It’s not that Fan Zijin can’t give more betrothal gifts, but in his capacity, he can only give a maximum of 120 sets, otherwise it’s over the limit. After a while, who knew Fan Zixiao would be so disgusting?
Fan Zijin judged the belly of a villain with the heart of a villain, and he really guessed right.
Looking at the three carts of gifts that Qi Xiuyuan brought from the north, and seeing the things that Fan Zijin kept bringing back from outside, Fan Zixiao really wanted to grab his handle and let the imperial censor join him, but it’s a pity that those things looked There are quite a lot, but really only installed 120 units, which just reached the upper limit.
Fan Zixiao looked at Fan Zijin with red makeup and rich private property, his eyes were red with jealousy.
