Chapter 344: Dowry

When a woman marries into her husband's family, the thickness of the dowry is very important, which is directly related to whether she can straighten her waist and be a person in her husband's family in the future. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

For example, Mrs. Tai, who was the only concubine of the Yao family back then, brought nearly half of the Yao family's family assets as a dowry when she got married. Because of this, the late mother-in-law was very polite to her.

"When your aunt got married, I gave her one-third of my private house, and I kept two-thirds, which I intended for your father. ”

When Mrs. Tai mentioned her dead son Gu Zhan, she couldn't help but sigh lightly: "Your father went early, and this private house happened to be reserved for you as a dowry." ”

Gu Wanning was taken aback, and immediately said: "Grandmother has to leave some private room for self-defense, so she can give it to me." ”

Mrs. Tai smiled faintly: "At my age, I don't know how many years I can live." The Hou Mansion has such a big family business, and it will not be able to support an old woman of mine. It doesn't matter if you have a private room or not. It's you, who married into the prince's mansion in the future and became the princess, I don't know how many people and things you have to deal with. There is more silver around him, and he is more confident in speaking and doing things. ”

Gu Wanning still wanted to open her mouth, but Mrs. Tai had already continued: "Gongzhong's share, you are the same as Sister Hua'er. and all thirty thousand taels of silver. The emperor's reward, as well as the dowry sent by the prince's mansion today, will all be given to you as a dowry. ”

"Grandmother also has a dozen shops and three small farms of several hundred acres in her hands, and they have all been given to you. ”

When a woman marries, forty-eight dowries are already quite decent, and sixty-four dowries are already considered rich. One hundred and twenty-eight dowries, only the heavenly family marries daughters.

Mrs. Tai said this casually, how much more than one hundred and twenty-eight dowry?

Gu Wanning's heart was moved, and a little water flashed in his eyes: "Grandmother......"

In this world, the only one who treats her wholeheartedly and never asks for half a penny in return is her grandmother.

Mrs. Tai smiled and sighed lightly: "Sister Ning, that's all grandmother can do." After you get married, you will be the granddaughter of the princess, the granddaughter-in-law of the heavenly family. If something happens in the prince's mansion, grandmother can't help you. ”

……

The Gu family's political stance has always been very clear, with only four words: loyal to the monarch and patriotic!

The daughter of the Gu family became the princess of Qi, but the Gu family was never a henchman of the king of Qi.

Now that it is Gu Wanning's turn, Mrs. Tai also gave the same reminder.

It doesn't hurt to help each other in the future, but the Gu family will never get involved in the internal affairs of the prince's mansion, let alone get involved in the battle for the throne of the royal family.

Gu Wanning understood the meaning of Mrs. Tai's words, and solemnly responded: "Grandmother, don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, I will never implicate the Dingbei Hou Mansion." ”

I will make the Gu family proud of me, and I will never drag everyone in the Gu family down.

Mrs. Tai felt quite relieved to see that Gu Wanning was so well-versed in affairs.

She has been hurting her granddaughter since she was a child, and she has her own family-caring demeanor when she speaks and acts. Clear-headed and calm-headed, much better than her aunt.

Thinking of Princess Qi, Mrs. Tai sighed again.

Gu Wanning knew Mrs. Tai's thoughts best, and asked in a low voice, "Did grandmother remember your aunt?"

Mrs. Tai nodded: "Ah Yu is my first child, and I have always spoiled her very much. Of the four siblings, she was the only one who was a woman, and her brothers and brothers also let her. Somehow, her temper is neither like your grandfather, nor like mine. There is no bit of a vigorous and resolute lady, the ears are soft, and the temperament is also soft. ”

"When Queen Wang chose a concubine for King Qi, I was actually quite reluctant to let your aunt marry King Qi. But after she saw King Qi once, she fell in love, cried a few times in front of me, and insisted on marrying King Qi. I couldn't do anything with her, so I had to agree. Her portrait was also sent to the queen and queen. ”

In this respect, the two siblings are strikingly similar.

Gu Zhan is cold and resolute by nature, but emotionally he is a confused worm, he doesn't know people, and he sees the Shen family, whose heart is like a poisonous scorpion, as a unique beauty in the sky and on the earth.

Gu Yu usually has a soft temperament and doesn't have much assertiveness, but after one meeting, he fell in love with King Qi and insisted on marrying him...... As long as you look at the prince of Qi, you will know how handsome and extraordinary the King of Qi was back then.

Gu Yu was born in Dingbei Hou Mansion, is the eldest daughter of the Gu family, and was beautiful and outstanding when she was young, and she was a well-known beauty.

Queen Wang really picked Gu Yu and quickly issued a decree to marry.

Gu Yu also got her wish and became the princess of Qi.

King Qi treated her well, although she later accepted two side concubines, and there were no concubines around her. However, he always spends most of the month staying in Gu Yu's house.

Since the prince and his wife took office, Mrs. Tai and Gu Yu have maintained correspondence and are quite close.

It's just that the behavior of the prince of Qi is chilling, and Mrs. Tai once wrote a letter to ask Gu Yu. Gu Yu's reaction was vague, and he ......

"Children are debts of past lives. Mrs. Tai sighed softly: "Your father didn't let me worry, and so did your aunt." I just hope that you will get married in the future and live a good life. ”

Gu Wanning responded seriously: "Grandmother, no matter what happens in the future, I will face it with my grandson." My grandmother should also believe in me that I will be able to live my life well. So, Grandmother doesn't have to worry about me anymore. ”

Mrs. Tai nodded with satisfaction.

……

Gu Guanning's dowry was decided by Mrs. Tai.

Wu looked at the thick dowry list, and his eyes were so hot with envy that his eyes were about to come down.

However, with so many painful lessons from the past, Wu finally felt a lot more obedient, and he didn't dare to say a word. only muttered a few words to Gu Guanhua behind his back:

"You're a year older than Wanning. Now she got married early, and it was the emperor's marriage, and she had so much dowry. You, the eldest sister, seem to be no match for her. ”

Gu Guanhua was very sober: "My second sister and I shouldn't be on a par, what do you care about this." He blushed again and whispered: "The second sister is married well, which is also a good thing for me." Maybe I'll be able to marry better in the future. ”

Gu Guanning has become the princess, and she, the maiden sister, will also rise with the tide.

The one who came to propose marriage before was either a concubine, or if it was a concubine, the family rank was not high enough. Now those who come to the door to ask about relatives are much higher. There are even those who come to propose marriage for the eldest son of the family.

Wu Shi thought that this was indeed the case, and he also became happy: "You are right, I will not stare at the dowry of Guanning anymore." As soon as she gets married, I will start to take care of your family affairs. ”

Gu Guanhua pursed his lips and smiled faintly.

Wu Shi is talking happily now, and when it comes to the day when Gu Guanning adds makeup, he will have to be sour again.

Knowing the mother is more than a daughter.

After a few days, the day for Gu Guanning to add makeup arrived.
