Chapter 68: The bride price arrives
In the room, Meng Qianzi listened to the conversation between the two, and had already put away the crystal gold ice, but Meng Qianzi's eyes flashed slightly, if you ask Xuanyuan Ning, I don't know how much she knows about this crystal gold ice?
Meng Qianzi just thought so in the end, after all, if this crystal gold ice was real, then if it was passed out, she would be in big trouble.
It's not that she doesn't believe Xuanyuan Ning, there is no impermeable wall in this world, and there are many people who know it, and it is always unsafe.
Early the next morning, after Meng Qianzi finished running and stretching her body, she was about to have breakfast with Xuanyuan Ning and Qing'er, when the old housekeeper came over to invite someone, saying that the bride price would arrive soon.
The food in the aster has been greatly improved since Meng Qianzi gave Aunt Zhao a sneer in front of Prime Minister Meng, plus now that Xuanyuan Ning lives in the astral garden, it may be that Aunt Zhao knows Xuanyuan Ning's origin, or it may be that Prime Minister Meng Cheng has beaten Aunt Zhao earlier, so the current meal can be described as very rich.
Meng Qianzi smiled at the old housekeeper and said, "I know, the old housekeeper will go to work first, and I'll go over after breakfast." ”
The old housekeeper was ordered to retreat, he really had a lot of things to do, and he had to clear out a lot of warehouses to store the bride price of the two young ladies.
The two young ladies in the family got married together, and the old housekeeper was also happy in his heart, although the eldest lady was going to marry the prince before, but now it has become the second lady to marry the prince, but during this time, the prince and King Ning, in the heart of this old man, he felt that King Ning was better than the prince and more suitable for the best eldest lady in his family. Xuanyuan Ning said to Meng Qianzi while eating: "Sister, I don't know what kind of dowry the prince sent you? Hurry up and finish breakfast, let's go and have a look." ”
Qing'er sighed and said worriedly: "Alas, I don't know if the bride price given by the prince and aunt is better than the bride price given by the prince, otherwise, I will be laughed at by the second lady again." ”
Meng Qianzi smiled and didn't speak, but what is the use of giving a bride price, no matter how good it is? At that time, it will not be a dream family, except for a better reputation, it has no real benefits for us, and it has to make the prince and queen jealous.
The three of them quickly finished breakfast, and went all the way to the front hall, in the hall, the bride price of the prince and King Ning was being carried into the courtyard one by one, the main gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was wide open, and the bride price of the prince and King Ning was divided into two rows, and the left and right sides were separated.
Because Prime Minister Meng knew that today was the day to give the bride price, he didn't go to the palace to go to the morning court, so he waited in the hall early in the morning.
Next to Prime Minister Meng stood Meng Qianbai and Aunt Zhao, the two were laughing and watching the prince's bride price being carried in box by box, and I don't know what the two said, Meng Qianbai was shy with a pink face, full of shame and pride as his bride price was brought in.
As soon as Meng Qianzi arrived in the courtyard, she saw such a scene, the corners of her mouth were mockingly hooked, her eyes swept at will to the bride price on both sides, and her eyebrows were slightly raised.
"Miss, you are here, here is the bride price of His Royal Highness King Ning. When the old housekeeper saw Meng Qianzi come out, he immediately stepped forward.
Meng Qianzi smiled and nodded, went to the chair next to her and sat down, waiting to watch the play.
Xuanyuan Ning looked at it, and also ran to sit next to Meng Qianzi: "Sister, there are so many boxes of dowry, and they haven't been sent yet, so how many do you have?"
Qing'er poured a cup of tea for each of them: "The prince marries our young lady, and the bride price will definitely not be missing!"
Meng Qianzi hadn't spoken yet, but Meng Qianbai next to her listened to the conversation between the two.
Meng Qianbai walked up to the three of them and looked at Meng Qianzi with contempt: "Hmph! What's wrong with the prince's bride price? In Qingchuan Kingdom, the bride price is very particular, and the royal family is even more so, not to mention that King Ning has not been out of the prince's mansion for so many years, I don't know how poor the prince's mansion has become, how much bride price can be taken out, even if King Ning can get the bride price, he can't be more than the prince's bride price." ”
Meng Qianzi continued to drink the tea in her hand without taking a sip, her eyes looked at the bride price that was pouring in, and she didn't bother to pay attention to her.
Xuanyuan Ning saw that Meng Qianzi ignored her, and also learned from Meng Qianzi's appearance, only picked up the teacup and drank the tea in one sip, and didn't give her a look.
Qing'er wanted to refute, but what Meng Qianbai said was true, and Qing'er couldn't find the words to refute for a while, so she could only pout and look in other directions.
Meng Qianbai saw that she had said so many words, but no one paid attention to her, so she gritted her teeth angrily: "Meng Qianzi, didn't you hear me talking to you?"
Meng Qianzi glanced up at her lazily, pulled the corners of her mouth, and said with a smile: "It turns out that my sister is talking to me? My sister is watching her bride price come, so she is dizzy with joy, and she has forgotten her upbringing? Talking to her sister, she doesn't even need to be called? Or does my sister think that my sister will be the princess in the future, and she can't look down on these fathers and sisters of our dream family?"
Meng Qianbai listened to Meng Qianzi's words, her face turned pale in an instant, and she quickly turned her head to look at Prime Minister Meng and Aunt Zhao, and when she saw Prime Minister Meng and Aunt Zhao looking here, she panicked even more, and hurriedly shouted: "Meng Qianzi, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Then he turned his head to Prime Minister Meng and said, "Daddy, no matter what position Qianbai is in the future, Qianbai will always honor his father." ”
Meng Qianbai secretly hated in her heart, damn Meng Qianzi! dare to say this to her in front of her father!
In fact, Meng Qianzi said what Meng Qianbai said in her heart, but even if she thought so in her heart, she couldn't let her father and mother know, because she knew that after entering the Prince's Mansion, she still needed to rely on the Prime Minister's Mansion, so that she could stand firm in the Prince's Mansion.
I have to say, this dream Qianbai is not really that stupid!
The corners of Meng Qianzi's mouth hooked: "It seems that I misunderstood my sister, it turns out that my sister is not because she wants to be the princess and looks down on the sisters and sisters of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but my sister has never regarded the sisters of the Prime Minister's Mansion as sisters!"
Meng Qianbai took a step forward angrily, glared at Meng Qianzi fiercely, and gritted his teeth and said, "Meng Qianzi, I told you not to talk nonsense!"
Meng Qianzi looked at Meng Qianbai, who was standing only one step away in front of her, and said with a smile: "Could it be that my sister is wrong? Sister is standing so close, is it because her wrist doesn't hurt?"
Meng Qianbai remembered that last night, Meng Qianzi almost crushed his wrist bone with only one hand, and immediately took two big steps back in fright, holding the other wrist that was still faintly painful, and stared at Meng Qianzi with fear on his face.
