Female supremacy: leading the whole family to change their family

Chapter 146 Wang Qilang's Dowry

These fathers and sons knew that even though Gu Yao said this, they couldn't listen.

After all, Gu Yao has invested so much effort in the academy, how could she not be willing to get a good ranking.

After Gu Yao left, these fathers and sons urged these students even more, hoping that they could work harder.

Although the students felt devastated and haggard, they still hoped that they could pass the examination.

If they pass the examination, they can also leave a good impression in front of the prefect. If they fail, they can still find a job in Shicheng.

The yamen runners will also be recruited. If you want to work in Shicheng, as long as you work hard, you can still find a job.

Gu Yao has tried her best to provide a job for people in Shicheng, but there are only so many jobs, and one person has one position. If they want a good job with good treatment, they can only work hard.

The academy is preparing for next year's imperial examination, and the Gu family is also preparing Gu Ping's betrothal gifts.

Although she has already found three husbands, the most important thing is to marry the eldest husband first.

The Gu family’s betrothal gifts have already been discovered at Wang Yang’s house, and the Gu family has prepared a lot of betrothal gifts.

After all, this is probably the betrothal gift for the parents' granddaughter, so it must not be less, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

Doctor Wang looked at the betrothal gifts and smiled happily: "My dear wife, Master Gu is very good to our family, which shows that he values ​​Xiao Qi very much. With these betrothal gifts, he will definitely be respected by the Gu family. Fortunately, we have prepared a lot of dowry, otherwise, wouldn't it be a joke?"

Doctor Wang also knew that Gu Ping had already chosen two other husbands.

They were waiting to enter the house after Wang Qilang, so they had to prepare a larger dowry. Otherwise, how would he survive if he was outdone by the two husbands below him?

When Wang Qilang received the dowry list from Doctor Wang, he was very surprised: "Dad, this dowry is already enough. Our family is not very wealthy to begin with. If it were too much, how would we live? Besides, we have nieces and nephews who need to live."

His sisters now have children, so his father has four or five grandchildren in total. They will also start their own families in the future, and he doesn't want to search the entire house.

Doctor Wang handed him the dowry list and said, "Don't worry, our family can still make ends meet. Although your father is an honest official, at least our family has land. You know that the betrothal gift given to us by the Gu family is very precious. If your dowry is not more, how can you gain a foothold in the Gu family?"

Doctor Wang didn't want his son to live a hard life. Although he had two daughters, he only had this one son.

Therefore, he also hoped to leave all the good things to his son. He also planned to let him take all the betrothal gifts sent by the Gu family to save face for him, and they would also be his dowry in the future.

Wang Qillang was still a little hesitant. He didn't want to be a selfish person.

Although she is married, she is still a member of the royal family and hopes that her family will be well.

"Okay, just accept it. This is what your family did for you. And you are marrying far away, so you must live a good life in Shicheng. If you have any problems, write to your family more often. Although I can't bear it, at least the Gu family will treat you well for your mother's sake."

He felt sad when he thought about his son being far away from him. His eyes turned red as he spoke, and he cried while hugging Wang Qilang.

Wang Qillang also felt sad. He had spent more than ten years at home, and when he thought about getting married next year, he didn't want to get married.

But he also knew that if he didn't get married it would not be good for his family or for him.

What's more, his mother is a fifth-rank official, and there are many people watching her, so he can't bring trouble to his family.

"Dad, I will live a good life. With mom around, the Gu family will treat me well. Even my future wife will treat me well. She has given me a lot of things in the past two years, and you have seen them."

So he will be a good husband. In fact, Wang Qillang is also looking forward to his married life.

But he felt a little inferior when he saw the betrothal gifts sent by the Gu family. Although his mother was genuine, to be honest, her family didn't have much property.

At most, he had some land, and his family didn't know much about business. Except for his sisters who sometimes did some business, the money they earned had to be used by the family.

He wondered if it was because the Gu family was better off than theirs that his father tried every means to prepare a dowry for him.

The more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt, and he cried with his father for a while.

All the married men in the Wang family knew that Wang Qillang was about to get married.

Sometimes she would go home to accompany Wang Qillang, allowing Wang Qillang to have a good time before he got married.

He especially wanted to spend more time with his family. Although time was getting longer and longer, at least he was still a member of the Wang family as he had not yet married.

The Gu family was also preparing for Gu Ping's marriage, and the house was also being renovated, especially Gu Ping's yard.

She would have her own family in the future, so Gu Yao arranged for someone to open up a connection to the side of the house to make her yard look bigger and able to accommodate several people.

However, Gu Yao thought that Gu Ping would have many husbands in the future, and sometimes even a maid, so she bought a three-story courtyard next to the yard.

There is a door in the middle, and if there is no room to live there, the yard next to it can be renovated.

It’s actually a matter of national policy, which makes them spend a little more money even on decorating their houses.

No wonder housing prices were high in their dynasty, after all, there was a large population.

Even a poor family has three husbands, and some smaller houses simply cannot accommodate them all.

Gu Yao came to Lin Wulang's side and sighed: "Fortunately, our yard is big, otherwise we really can't live here. But now it's good, now we have two houses connected together, and when these daughters get married in the future, they will have enough space to live here."

Lin Wulang laughed and said, "Although we have a large population, the land will be empty after the men get married."

As Lin Wulang spoke, he sighed inwardly: "When I think of our son getting married, I feel bad about it, but men do have to get married when they grow up."

Gu Yao sighed: "Fortunately, they are still young and it is not time for them to get married. However, after Ah Ping gets married, we will have to start looking for someone else."

Gu Yao was thinking about Gu An's marriage. She was only one or two years younger than Gongping.

After Gu Ping gets married, it will be her turn. She will definitely find him a good family by then.

If a man finds the wrong woman, his life will be ruined. However, if her son is bullied, she will definitely take him back. After all, their family can afford it.

She also didn't know what to do, after all, it was really hard to find a marriage during the Chinese New Year.

They don't have many relatives, and although they have good friends, they don't want to criticize people just because of their friends.
