Chapter 945
The matchmaker and Mrs. Pei were warmly welcomed into the house by the aunt, and Tao Zi and Shui Ling hurriedly served tea.
Mrs. Pei sat down and winked at the matchmaker. The matchmaker understood and spoke enthusiastically.
"Princess Yi, Mrs. Ling, and the old slave came to propose marriage on behalf of the Pei family today. It is a great joy for the Pei and Ling families to form a good relationship between Qin and Jin!"
"If Mrs. Ling has no objections, I will exchange Miss Ling's birthday and horoscope, and I will give it to the master to combine, and we can pick a date as soon as possible to get engaged!"
The eldest aunt only wanted Ling Wan to escape from the clutches of Prince Wei's palace. She had already prepared Ling Wan's birthday and birth date. After hearing this, she happily took out Ling Wan's birthday and birth date and handed it to the matchmaker.
Mrs. Pei smiled slightly and said to her eldest aunt: "My master said that we should get engaged first and then hold the wedding when the wedding room is ready! Mrs. Ling, how much is the appropriate amount of the bride price?"
The eldest aunt was stunned for a moment and then looked at Ling Yu.
Ling Yu didn't understand this either, so she looked at Granny Li.
Aunt Li smiled and said: "Mrs. Pei, the bridegroom decided on it himself! Our family decides on the dowry according to the rules! Mrs. Pei, if you ask your in-laws, then we won't be able to say this!"
The matchmaker smiled and said: "Mrs. Pei also has good intentions, but she is worried that the price of the gift will be set too high, which will put Mrs. Ling under pressure!"
Ling Yu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Was Mrs. Pei worried that her eldest aunt would not have money to marry Ling Wan?
She smiled slightly and said: "Ling Yu thanked Mrs. Pei for her kindness, so just give it according to the rules! Don't worry about Wan'er's dowry. I am her sister, and she also has grandparents. I will not wrong her!"
The matchmaker said: "Then give me a gift of 20,000 yuan!"
Aunt Li's face changed. Ling Yu's heart skipped a beat when she saw it. Does Aunt Li mean to give up?
Aunt Li said unceremoniously: "Mrs. Pei, when the son of a minister in the imperial capital gets married, the most unlucky family has a minimum betrothal gift of 50,000 yuan. It shouldn't be that difficult for the Pei family, right?"
Mrs. Pei pretended to be surprised and said: "That's right! Aunty, if you know so much about the marriage market in the imperial capital, you should know that the minimum cost for a direct son to get married is 50,000! But 20,000 for a concubine is already the highest!"
"We gave it according to the highest standards, what? Isn't it too little for you, mama?"
"Concubine?" Ling Yu couldn't help it anymore and asked sharply: "Matchmaker, which son of the Pei family are you proposing to marry today?"
The matchmaker smiled and said, "Didn't you agree? Today's marriage proposal is naturally for Pei Hao, the concubine of the Pei family, and Miss Ling!"
Which onion is Pei Hao?
Ling Yu doesn't know where she made a mistake? Did Xiao Lintian send the message wrong?
"Wait a minute!"
Ling Yu said to Shui Ling with a gloomy face: "Go and call Prince Yi!"
Shui Ling was also shocked by this accident. She was the one responsible for delivering the message yesterday. Did she hear it wrong?
She was so frightened that she turned around and ran out quickly.
The eldest aunt was also stunned.
Ling Wan, who was hiding in the back room, burst into tears instantly.
She felt like everything was unreal!
How could Pei Yu marry the daughter of a criminal like himself?
It turned out to be a mistake!
"You guys should go out first! I'll talk to Princess Yi later!"
Mrs. Pei sent the matchmaker and servants out, she said with a faint smile.
"Princess Yi, I discussed it with my husband and my wife yesterday. Ling Wan can marry into the Pei family, but the marriage partner is not Yu'er, but Pei Hao!"
"I have watched Pei Hao grow up too. He is a talented person and has a good personality. Ling Wan will not be humiliated by marrying him!"
