Fourth, the sale of marriage rights
The father-in-law and son-in-law were sitting in the room, and there was a young man in green who was lying on his head from time to time outside the door.
Zhou Xuan shouted: "What are you looking at? Go and urge the bride to come back, and then he said that the new son-in-law was impatient to wait."
The young boy stuck out his tongue and disappeared.
Dr. Qin stood up and walked outside the door, muttering to someone a few words. After a while, a maid came over with a wooden plate in all directions, with ten small silver tiles shining on it.
"This is fifty taels of silver, please accept it with a smile, Mr. Zhou." Old Man Qin said earnestly.
Zhou Xuan had some understanding of the value of ancient silver. Generally speaking, one tael of silver is equal to one thousand coins, and one cent is equivalent to five cents of RMB, which means that one tael of silver is worth RMB 500, and fifty taels of silver is 25,000 yuan. He had just come over and was short of money. He was still very jealous when he saw this white silver.
"My father-in-law, you will never touch your ill-gotten fortune." Zhou Xuan had never been an official, but he watched this honest style on TV, and imitated it so righteous.
"Oh, why is this an ill-gotten fortune? It's all my years of official salary accumulation, and I'm innocent. I want to negotiate a deal with Master Zhou. As long as the master agrees, the money will be yours."
"Trade, what kind of transaction?"
Old Man Qin sat on the embroidery pedestal in front of the bed and lowered his voice, "I'm going to hide it from Mr. Zhou. I'm really fake to recruit a son-in-law this time, but the young master won't suffer any loss. You only need to be a fake son-in-law for half a month. In half a month, you will leave with the silver. How about it?"
Zhou Xuan asked: "So I can't have sex with Miss Qin Que?"
Old Man Qin said: "Of course."
"No, absolutely not!" Zhou Xuan said firmly: "How can I sell my first marriage rights for just fifty taels of silver? You must know that it is very discriminatory for those who are second marriage to find a partner. You are a blessing that will harm me for the rest of my life."
Dr. Qin couldn't understand what Zhou Xuan was saying, and when he heard that he disagreed, he increased his pension and said, "How about that one hundred taels of silver? I'm less than one hundred taels of official salary per year."
"It's not OK to have ten thousand taels. Can't wealth and honor be lustful? I don't understand why you want to have a fake marriage. Can you not deserve your daughter if you are like me? Oh—I understand, did your daughter have a lifelong enrollment with a scholar in the back garden. When she was pregnant, the scholar ran away again, so you asked me to cover your shame, right?"
Zhou Xuan said indignantly, making old man Qin tremble with anger, and his voice trembled: "You, you are slandering. How could my Qin family have such a ugly thing? You also saw it when you were in the church. My son Qin Que's waist is as simple as possible, and she is slender and slender. How could he be pregnant!"
Zhou Xuan thought about it and asked, "Why is that?"
Dr. Qin calmed down and said, "I'll just say that this year is the annual draft year of the Tang Palace once every three years. The draft envoy will come to Jiangzhou tomorrow——"
"Wait a minute, what is a draft?" Zhou Xuan knew about the NBA draft, but he didn't expect that Nan Tang would also have a draft.
"It's just the Tang Dynasty palace excerpt. Once every three years, the old palace maids are released in the middle of the palace, and the newly selected palace maids are on duty."
Zhou Xuan said: "This is a good thing. Once your daughter enters the palace, you might become a concubine. You are the father-in-law, haha."
Dr. Qin was so amused and said, "Young Master Zhou, don't know, that little Zhou Hou is jealous-"
"Okay, you slander the queen." Zhou Xuan shouted.
Dr. Qin was so scared that his face turned pale.
Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "It's okay, who will follow our father-in-law and son-in-law? If you don't tell me the words, my father-in-law will continue to say it."
Dr. Qin looked at the son-in-law with gratitude and said, "Anyway, Your Majesty has never made a concubine in so many years, and Your Majesty is in his sixties. Do you understand this? "
"I understand, I have no future in the palace and waste three years of youth. No wonder so many people get married today. It turns out that they are rushing to marry their daughter before the talent show arrives. But why does the father-in-law want to have a fake marriage? The son-in-law is also a handsome talent."
Dr. Qin seemed to have a good impression of Zhou Xuan, and said with all his heart: "The son-in-law doesn't know anything, Que'er--"
A stern female voice came from outside the door: "Let the old woman come and talk to him."
Zhou Xuan looked up and saw a fat woman in a high bun, wearing a long persimmon-tie dress with her collars, surrounded by several maids and maids, blocking the door with great momentum.
Dr. Qin quickly stood up, lowered his eyebrows and said angrily: "Madam, you are here."
It turned out to be the mother-in-law. I didn't see it when I was in the church just now. Seeing this attitude, my father-in-law was afraid, so Zhou Xuan also stood up and bowed and said, "Son-in-law, pay homage to my mother-in-law."
"I dare not take it." The mother-in-law walked in with arrogance. A pair of fish fucked their eyes and looked down on Zhou Xuan, but blamed Old Man Qin: "I asked you to find someone to mess with me, but you found such a person who can cause trouble, and nothing can be done."
When Zhou Xuan saw that his father-in-law was defeated, he spoke up righteously and said, "My mother-in-law is such a bad word. The wise man said that his father-in-law is like a new person. What he wants is a fate between people. The son-in-law and his father-in-law are like the same as before. The father-in-law cherishes his son-in-law's talent, so he betrothed to me. When the son-in-law was riding a horse, the neighbors praised his father-in-law for his vision and would choose a son-in-law."
Dr. Qin loves to hear these words, and his heart is warm. He feels that he and this virtuous son-in-law really hit it off at first sight. He said, "My wife, this young master Zhou is indeed very talented. But the poem I just said, "
The fat lady Qin snorted angrily: "What, you old guy really want to betroth your daughter to this person of unknown origin. How can you explain to me when my nephew comes!"
He turned his face to Zhou Xuan and said bluntly: "The old woman told you the truth, my family Queer and her cousin childhood have been together since childhood, and have planned to come to welcome the bride this year (that is, yesterday). Unexpectedly, the palace talent show came to Jiangzhou a month ahead of schedule, so I asked you to replace it. When the palace talent show envoy left Jiangzhou, the marriage will be terminated. I, Qin, have nothing to do with you."
Zhou Xuan thought to himself: "So that's the case. It seems that the atmosphere in the Southern Tang Dynasty is relatively open and I don't care about the second marriage. But I'm going to settle for Qin Que. I've already got married. I am already Zhou Xuan's wife. How could I be married by her bullshit cousin? I have no way!"
