When Yueyao returned to Lanxi Courtyard, she asked Mother Deng to take the four jewelry boxes she had gotten, looked at the four boxes and said, "Mom, open them." ”

The flower buds were guarded at the door, not letting people into the house.

On the top were silver tickets and land deeds, and Yue Yao put them down after taking a look. But when Mother Deng opened the four jewelry boxes, Yueyao was stunned. Although Yueyao knew that the old lady had a lot of good things, and the things she gave her would not be bad, she didn't expect to give her so many good things.

The first jewelry box contains all kinds of hairpins, including red gold hairpins inlaid with mutton fat jade peaches, red gold tired silk long hairpins, wind hairpins with red gold pendant red coral tassels, and red gold dotted emerald inlaid lotus hairpins; There are also hairpins inlaid with pearls, white jade, precious stones, coral, etc......

The second box contains earrings, bracelets, step rocks, beads and other jewelry, all of which are made of first-class materials, each of which is worth hundreds of gold......

The third box is divided into two compartments, and the upper compartment contains a set of gemstone dotted emerald heads. Each gemstone on it is the size of a thumb fingernail. In addition, the emerald feathers that are delicately pasted are also shining with dazzling brilliance. In the grid below are all kinds of hairpins, some of which are inlaid with precious stones, some with diamonds, and a lot of emerald pearl hairpins.

Yue Yao had seen Mo wear this set of gemstones in her previous life. It is said that this set of head noodles came from the craftsmanship of the master of the Ministry of Internal Affairs back then, and it was the queen mother's reward! One! Root! Read! The novel xstxt was given to the great-grandmother and then passed down from generation to generation.

The last box is also divided into two grids, and the upper grid is not a complete set of jewelry, but a few pieces of jade pendants, hairpins, and hairpins.

Yue Yao took out a piece of Liuyun Baifu jade pendant from it, this jade pendant was fine, crystal shining, green silk was suspended, and it was glowing with a dignified lake green. This is glutinous imperial green, which is the best among imperial greens. Such a jade pendant is also priceless, and such a good thing is hard to find, and money can't buy it.

In the grid below, there are jade bracelets, jade hairpins, jade earrings, and jade rings. The crescent moon took out a pair of bracelets, which are also the best jade species, old glass bracelets.

Mother Deng was also dazzled. Deng's mother is also a person who has seen the world, and the first two jewelry boxes are worth tens of thousands of gold together; The last two pieces of jewelry together are not easy to calculate the silver coin. Mother Deng was happy in her heart, this time the old lady split her own girl, and she definitely got a big benefit. Not to mention anything else, this kind of glutinous imperial green doesn't even have his own wife. Mother Deng finally let out a frequent sigh: "The old lady really loves the girl." ”

Yue Yao looked at these jewelry and felt a little guilty, no matter what happened to the eldest uncle and Mo's, but her grandmother really loved her. Otherwise, he would not have returned his mother's dowry to her, and gave her such valuable jewelry.

There were tears in Yueyao's eyes: "Grandmother, I'm sorry. She didn't want to refuse her grandmother, but she knew that compromise would end up being worse than death, and she couldn't do it. Even if she gave these jewelry, she couldn't give it to the grandmother who promised her.

Yueyao wiped her tears and re-combed her makeup, and then said to Mother Deng, who was combing her hair: "Jewelry doesn't need to be put in the warehouse, and don't register it for the time being." ”

Mother Deng nodded. Yueyao waited for Deng's mother to coil her hair, put the box in the cabinet and locked it herself. The key is on her, and if she is passive, she will soon find out.

Deng's mother also thinks that this is the best, but Deng's mother now thinks that the safest thing is Qianzhuang. After hesitating, he said, "Girl, if not, let's deposit these into the bank, so that it is more appropriate." "Not only the jewelry given by the old lady, but also the jewelry left by the lady, add up to a very large amount. In this courtyard, as long as Mother Deng thinks about Mo's constant eye, she always feels unsteady.

Yue Yao nodded and said, "Give away these jewelry when you have the chance." "There is a chance that you want to store these jewelry in the bank, and it is difficult to put it here without leaking it. It's not terrible to leak out, but what I'm afraid of is that Mohs will break the jar. Yue Yao knew in her heart that this probability was very small, but now she had formed an inertial thinking, as long as it was Mo's, she would think of the worst outcome.

Mother Deng nodded, but she also knew in her heart that it was impossible to give away so many jewelry; So the right thing to do now is to take good care of these jewelry.

Yue Yao thought for a while and said, "If someone comes to inquire about what jewelry I have, don't worry too much, tell the first two boxes of jewelry, and then reveal a little bit of news about the head of this set of gemstones." "If you can, Yueyao doesn't want to spread it, but this set of gems is too famous, and the great grandmother has worn it, and the grandmother has worn it, and this thing will definitely not be hidden from the Mo family. Since you can't hide it, it's better to spread it.

This is actually a kind of cognition of Yueyao, she feels that it doesn't matter if the things in the first three boxes are passed out, but the last box of jade should still be hidden. And she has already thought about it, she is not afraid of anything when she wears these jade ornaments in the future, her mother used to love jade ornaments, and it is normal to collect all kinds of superb jade ornaments.

Yueying gently squeezed the old lady's shoulder. The old lady squinted and didn't move, and Yueying thought that the old lady was asleep, so she stood up and loosened her somewhat sour legs and feet. After a while, I saw the old lady breathing evenly, ready to go out.

The old lady opened her eyes and looked at Yueying, she didn't like Yueying very much before, she felt that Yueying was narrow-sighted, short-sighted, and not particularly assertive. But now, compared with Yueyao, who is hidden so much that she can't see through it, Yueying can see through it at a glance although she is a little cautious. Fortunately, I chose Yueying that day, and I didn't choose Yueyao's girl, otherwise I don't know what to do.

Thinking of this, the old lady smiled bitterly, even if she knew that Yueyao had other thoughts, what could she do, for the sake of her son who died early, she would have to protect that girl. The only thing I am glad about now is that although Yueyao's temperament has changed a little, her nature is still good.

Seeing the old lady staring at her, Yueying was a little scared, thinking that her careful thoughts had been discovered by the old lady, and muttered, "Grandmother." ”

The old lady came back to her senses: "You go and open the drawer in the second compartment." "Yueying has been by her side for so long, and she is still doing her best. At this point, she should also give Yueying a little extra things, but these things can't be in front of everyone, otherwise it will cause a lot of conflicts. As the head of the family, she must have a bowl of water on the noodles.

Yueying opened the drawer and saw that there was a very ugly black box inside. Thinking of Yueyao going out empty-handed just now, Yueying's heart fluttered and beat hard.

The old lady looked at Yueying's look of joy that couldn't hide her joy, and couldn't help sighing, she still couldn't change the taste of a little family on her body after being by her side for so long. Thinking about the calmness when Yueyao got her mother's dowry, the two couldn't compare at all: "You open it, this is something that grandmother gave you extra." ”

Yueying opened the small black box and looked at the box where there was a silver ticket of two thousand taels, a title deed of three hundred acres of paddy fields, and a bracelet with a white luster, the white luster was so soft that people were reluctant to turn their eyes; Next to the mutton fat jade bracelet is a silk red gold bracelet.

The old lady said softly: "This mutton fat jade bracelet was handed down by your great-grandmother, and it is a rare treasure, and I also wore it when I was young; In addition, the skein red gold bracelet is a thing of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and is also rare. In addition, the silver ticket and the paddy field are the dowry that your grandmother gave you in private. ”

Yueying was very moved: "Thank you grandmother for your love. "This sheep fat jade bracelet is better than all the jewelry in the four boxes she got, and this skein red gold bracelet is also a rare good thing. But after being happy, Yueying couldn't help but think that the two extra boxes of jewelry from Yue Yao and Yue Bing must be rare treasures.

These days, Yueying really takes good care of the old lady, and the old lady looks at Emperor Yan, so she naturally can't bear to teach one or two more. Among the four granddaughters, Yueyao is smart and has the means and doesn't need her teaching; Lunar ice has Mohs; Aunt Su is not a simple one; Only Yueying will have variables in the future: "Big girl, you remember these things, you keep them all and don't tell anyone, not even your aunt." When you get married in the future, these things should be the things at the bottom of your box. Yueying, when you get married in the future, you must be optimistic about your dowry. Don't make up the dowry in order to please your mother-in-law and husband, you have to remember that the dowry is a woman's last dependence. Remember? "The old lady didn't have time to inspect Yao Xiuran, and she didn't know Yao Xiuran's true character. She said this just as a precautionary measure. If it's good, everyone will be happy, and if it's unreliable, then you can still live on dowry in the future.

Yueying's tears poured out: "Grandmother, don't worry, I keep it all in my heart." "Dowry is the foundation of a woman's life, and she will never take it out to supplement her in-law's family. If he wants to use it, he can only use it for his son.

The old lady said so many words today, her body couldn't support it, and she was very tired and said, "I'm tired, you can also go and rest!" After saying that, he closed his eyes and rested.

The moon ring does not have the lost mood of the moon. In her mind, it was a complete windfall. As soon as she returned to the house, when Aunt Su was left alone, Yuehuan couldn't wait to open the box.

Yuehuan looked at the two boxes full of jewelry, and her eyes lit up. It's all real, it's all good before! Yuehuan held the three thousand taels of silver tickets in her hand again, let out a sigh of relief, pulled Aunt Su's arm and said, "Auntie, we are finally no longer poor, and we are also rich." ”

Aunt Su looked at the jewelry in the box, but sighed slightly. The jewelry of the box is not gold or silver, but it must not carry gems the size of a grain of rice. The two boxes of jewelry are not the same as the jewelry of the emerald process. She has been in Lianfu for so many years, and she knows very well that the old lady has a lot of good things, but her daughter doesn't have any of those good things. Aunt Su regrets it a little now, she knew that the old lady would split her body, so she should have let her daughter get closer to the old lady, so that her daughter would not have to suffer such a big loss. cough, Aunt Su couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart when she thought about the superb jewelry that the old lady had worn before. The old lady is too partial, not to say much, but not even one.

Yuehuan took a crimson jadeite gold-inlaid bracelet and put it on his hand: "Auntie, is it good-looking?" "She thought it was very good-looking, really, very beautiful. This is to be taken to modern times, and there are millions of dollars that cannot be bought.

Aunt Su didn't want to ruin her daughter's interest, so she smiled and said, "It's good-looking." ”

Yue Bing got so many good things at once, and she was also happy, and the smile on her face didn't need to be hidden. When I opened it in the house, my eyes were glazed. Laughing like a flower at the moment, Yue Bing couldn't help but take one and put it on and change it to another, and she was happy to change it back and forth.

Mo Shi was not very happy to see the jewelry in the four boxes, except for a set of jade head and a few scattered jewelry, the rest was only average.

Mo Shi thought of the things in Yue Yao's hand: "Go and inquire, what did the third girl get?" "If the old lady really has a bowl of water, she should open the box for everyone to see. The old lady must not want people to know about this, and wants to hide something. From this, it is certain that the things of the four girls are different, and the things of the three girls are definitely the best.

Yue Bing's words swept away the joy just now, put down the round pearl necklace in his hand and said, "Mother, do you mean that the third sister will have more things than me, better than me?" "If that's the case, then Grandmother is really eccentric.

Mo shook his head: "It shouldn't be more than you, but she should get better things than you." Mo couldn't be 100% sure, because she didn't know how many things the old lady still had left in her hand, and whether those things were all superb.

Mo Shi heard Mrs. Liu say that Yueyao came out of the old lady's house, her hands were empty, and she shook her head and said, "The old lady won't let people say that she is unfair." She kept saying that she wanted a bowl of water. Even if the old lady wants to make up for it, it is in private, and she will never let people say that she is unfair, so she never doubted that the old lady would give Yueyao something again.

After Yuehuan was excited, she said to Aunt Su: "Auntie, now that we have these things, our lives will be better in the future." Yuehuan thought that with so much money, they would not be so tight on hand, and their future life would be better.

Aunt Su touched Yuehuan's head: "These are your dowries, and Aunt Tinglun won't use them." You're also older, and you put all these things away. ”

Yuehuan smiled and shook her head: "Auntie, didn't you say that Gongzhong would buy me a dowry in the future, and besides, the dowry will be a few years later, why are you in such a hurry." After speaking, she chose a pair of red jade bead earrings and put them on Aunt Su, and Yuehuan exclaimed: "Aunt is so beautiful to wear." ”

Aunt Su said with a smile: "Hurry up and put it away, and keep it for yourself." How can she use her daughter's dowry, these are the foundation for her daughter to go to her husband's house in the future.

Yuehuan thought for a while and put away the jewelry, glanced at the silver ticket in his hand again, and finally handed the silver ticket to Aunt Su: "Auntie, you take these two silver tickets first." We have a lot of places to use money, if you can't use it, use it. If you don't move when I get married, you will return it to me, do you think it will be okay? Although Yuehuan also wanted to hold the silver ticket in her hand, she couldn't be so selfish, they were so short of money that she and Tingzheng were both malnourished. Although it has improved a lot now, it is also possible to be prepared if you have money in hand.

Aunt Su finally took the silver ticket of the moon ring, held the silver ticket in her hand and hugged the moon ring and said in a low voice: "Silly girl." For her daughter's move, Aunt Su felt very caring, no matter how hard and tired she was, but with such a pair of filial children, she also felt that it was worth it.

Mo's news is very well-informed, and from those rumors, he guessed which jewelry Yue Yao had obtained. After Mohs guessed this result, he was so angry that his face was distorted. Everything else is similar to her daughter, although she is not comfortable, but it is okay. The gem head, which can be used as a family heirloom, actually fell into Yueyao's hands: "The gem head is a family heirloom, and the old lady will give it to the third girl." What is this doing, old lady? "The master who made this set of gem heads back then was a top master of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there were very few works handed down by that master, and it was a great honor to get one. It will be a face to wear it in the future. Mo really didn't expect that the old lady didn't leave it to her, but left it to the three girls, didn't the old lady treat her as a daughter-in-law?

Yue Bing said strangely: "Mother, is the gem head face better than my jade head face?" "The set of jade in Yuebing was also handed down by Mrs. Tai back then, and it is priceless.

Mo shook his head: "The two sets of heads and faces are about the same, but the gem head and face were given to your great grandmother by the Queen Mother at that time, and they were used as family heirlooms." "Mo's is an exaggeration, where can a set of jewelry be regarded as a family heirloom, but after two generations, it is considered that it should be passed on to the daughter-in-law.

Yue Bing was very interested when she heard this: "I'll take a look one day." "She's comparing one to two pieces of jewelry, which is more valuable.

Yue Yao went to the upper room after lunch, Yue Yao felt very guilty in front of the old lady's complicated expression, and wanted to say something but couldn't say anything in the end.

Yueying looked at Yueyao's strange appearance and asked strangely, "Third sister, what's wrong with you?" Is there something uncomfortable? ”

Yue Yao shook her head: "No, it may be that the sun was too strong when I came over just now, and people were a little dizzy." Just take a break. After speaking, he looked at the old lady lying on the bed, and couldn't help but lower his head again.

The old lady looked at the guilt and grief in the eyes of the three girls, and her heart softened. said to Yueyao: "Three girls come here, big girl, go down first!" ”

Yueying thought about the old lady's extra subsidy, and couldn't help but wonder if her grandmother would also give the third sister extra subsidy. The third sister is already double as hers, and if it is a grandmother, it will be supplemented. Thinking of this, Yueying is going to bow her head, it shouldn't be.

Yueyao waited for Yueying to leave the old lady's side, threw herself on the side of the bed and cried: "Grandmother, I'm sorry, I'm sorry grandmother......"

Seeing Yueyao crying so heartily, Yueying stopped moving her steps again. She didn't really want to go out, but she finally walked out with a strange look at Shang Qiaoru.

The old lady said softly: "Three girls, don't cry, grandmother is fine." Yueyao cried so sadly and didn't let go, which made the old lady even more worried, what did the second daughter-in-law say to this child, so that the third girl was wary of Mo's to this extent.

Yue Yao cried fiercely, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "Grandmother, I also hope that Lianfu will always be prosperous. Grandmother, I promise you that if I really can't stay in Lianfu, I will leave in the most tactful way, and try not to damage the reputation of Lianfu. This is already the biggest concession that Yueyao can make.

The old lady opened her mouth, and finally replied, "Okay." ”

Yueying heard Yueyao's growing cry outside, and she was very puzzled, what did these three sisters do to cry so sadly, and asked her grandmother to forgive her.

Qiaoru waited for the people in the room to call her, and immediately led two little maids holding water inside. This water is for Yueyao to clean her face.

Yueyao accompanied the old lady to dinner and went back. Yueying Song Yueyao pretended not to care when she came out of the courtyard and asked, "Third sister, what caused the third sister to be so sad?" ”

Yue Yao glanced at Yue Ying: "I couldn't help crying when I thought of my grandmother's body. "I believe that my grandmother will not tell anyone about this.

Yueying didn't believe it, but she also knew that the third girl's mouth was like a clam shell, and it was more difficult to ask what to say from her mouth than to ascend to the sky.
