Because the third princess did not come, this Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou Huaiyu's birthday became incidental.

However, even if the third princess did not come, the Yan family still put up the shelf of the ancestors in front of the Zhou family, but when it was Zhou Huaiyu's turn to kowtow to the Yan family, she just saluted lightly, and even said the blessing words dryly. Not only that, but she also opened her mouth to ask what gift her ancestor had prepared for her, and asked Yan to take off a blood jade bracelet from the corner of her mouth on the spot and put it on Zhou Huaiyu fiercely, and Zhou Huaiyu retreated with satisfaction.

This is the first time in many years that Zhou Huaiyu has participated in this kind of family banquet where the entire Zhou family is present, and after today, I don't know if the Yan family has achieved her expected goal, anyway, the Zhou family has seen it up and down, the once transparent big girl has now become the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion who even the old lady has to "pet and follow"!

The ceremony has also passed, the Mid-Autumn Festival has also passed, the "idle things" that should be busy are over, and the next thing is the long-awaited "business".

Early in the morning of the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Su called Zhou Huaiyu to her Chunhui Courtyard.

"Yu'er, you have now done the courtesy, you have become a big girl, you are about to get married and have children, your mother is happy in her heart!" Su Shi said this without going against his heart at all, and his whole body was full of joy, and Zhou Huaiyu could see it at a glance.

Of course, she also understood why Su was so happy.

"It is not easy for us women to be born, and getting married is the most important thing in this life, because when we go to our mother-in-law's house, we can't be as casual as in our mother's house. However, these are not the saddest, the saddest thing is that if you marry highly, your in-laws will inevitably look down on you by three points, and then just the gossip of your subordinates and the face of your in-laws can make you wash your face with tears all day long, do you understand?"

Su Shi was smiling at first, but in the end, she seemed to think of herself, and there were some tears in her eyes, which made Zhou Huaiyu quite speechless.

She didn't have time to "have a deep mother-daughter relationship" with Su Shi here, so she interrupted her lyricism that she planned to continue with a long speech: "Mother, did you think of the suffering you suffered in our Wu'an Hou Mansion?"

Su Shi was already a little convulsive, but when he heard Zhou Huaiyu's words, he choked in his throat and almost choked in his throat, and finally coughed a few times, picked up a handkerchief and wiped away the tears that were shocked out of his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he was no longer affectionate, only angry.

"Don't talk nonsense, you dead girl!" If the old immortal knows, maybe he will think of some way to summon her! Even though the Su family has now become the head of the Zhou family, but she is suppressed by the Yan family's word "filial piety", she still has to obey the orders of the Yan family, so that she does not dare to go east to west, and let the dog dare not hunt the chicken. Zhou Huaiyu is just a species of the Zhou family in the end, and there is no blood on her body, even if she treats her so heartily, she still has no affection for herself.

was stirred up by Zhou Huaiyu, and Su Shi didn't bother to talk to her "step by step", she looked at her coldly and said directly: "In a word, it is not easy for a woman to marry a woman in her husband's family, so in order to make her daughter live better in her husband's house, the mother's family will always prepare a good dowry, so that the daughter will proudly raise her head and chest, and the dowry that your mother has placed for you has already been placed in the treasury, just waiting for your grandmother's ones." Your grandmother has been preparing for almost a year, and she has been able to prepare for it a long time ago, but she has never mentioned it, so she didn't plan to prepare it for you at all?

"Oh, Mother is ready here, so take Yu'er to take a look?"

"That, the dowry can only be seen when you get married and brought to your husband's house, it's unlucky now!" Su Shi was in a hurry, and hurriedly made up a reason.

Zhou Huaiyu let out a long "oh", but he no longer insisted on watching. She expected that the Su family was not prepared at all, and even the dowry left to her by her own mother must be missing most of it, and the reason why she said this was because she heard her speak ill of her grandmother, and she had the intention to make her anxious.

"Then I'll go to my grandmother's house tomorrow and ask about it, and I'll write back to my mother when I get back." ”

The Su family had been waiting for many tomorrows, and they didn't want to wait anymore, so Zhou Huaiyu, who was urging right now, immediately returned to the Song family, and personally ordered people to prepare a carriage and wait at the door. Zhou Huaiyu wanted to go to her grandfather's house, because yesterday was her birthday, and her grandfather must have been looking forward to her if they didn't see her.

Sure enough, after coming to the Song family, Zhou Huaiyu was first pulled by the Wang family and the Lin family to ask her how she was doing on her birthday yesterday, whether she was bullied, etc., she directly took out the blood jade bracelet on her wrist to show them, and everyone was relieved with a smile.

"Grandmother, what I asked you to help prepare is already ready?"

As soon as Wang heard this, he knew that the long-term preparations were finally about to begin, and he nodded excitedly: "It's been ready for a long time, just waiting for you to get it." ”

"Well, then I'll take it back today, if in a few days, whether someone from Zhou Lai comes to find it or the Su clan sends someone to invite you over, you must follow what I taught you before!"

-

Almost as soon as Zhou Huaiyu returned home, the Su family immediately sent someone to call her. Zhou Huaiyu deliberately grinded, and then took the handkerchief with chili water that Xiao Tao prepared for her to go to Su Shi to "cry".

"Mother, why did you lie to me and make me so embarrassed in my grandfather's house!"

As soon as Zhou Huaiyu saw Su Shi, she preemptively cried and blocked the words that Su Shi wanted to ask, and just looking at Zhou Huaiyu like this, Su Shi's heart sank, it seemed that things were not as smooth as she imagined. "Yu'er, don't cry, tell your mother, what's going on?"

"Today I went to my grandmother to see the dowry she prepared for me, but what did my grandmother prepare, a few broken calligraphy and paintings, a few sets of old style jewelry sent me, and said that what she prepared for her mother back then was obviously these, and she also took out the dowry list prepared for her mother back then, which is not the same as what you showed me!"

Su Shi began to grit his teeth as soon as he heard this.

When a woman marries a woman, the dowry list is in duplicate or even more copies, but the official seal can only be two copies, one of these two copies is kept in the woman's mother's house, and one is carried to the husband's house with the woman's dowry. Although the seal is an auspicious style, this seal prevents that if the man and woman have emotional problems and want to reconcile in the future, it is convenient for the woman to liquidate her own things, and of course it is based on this list.

The Song family's dowry list stamped with the official seal in Su's hand, as early as the day she became Mrs. Wu'anhou, when the list was handed over to her, there was no scum left by her, so for so many years, those things of the Song family have of course been tossed by her, and they can't make up one or two.
