Chapter 264: The Dowry

"Luan girl, Luan girl......"

Lord Wu's loud voice sounded, Li Luan'er stroked his forehead, shook his head helplessly, and got up to greet him: "Old man Wu, your voice is quiet, be careful to scare my sister-in-law." ”

"Haha." Lord Wu laughed twice: "Okay, okay, old man, I forgot that Wan Yatou has a doll in her belly." ”

When he said this, Lord Wu's voice was obviously lowered.

Li Luan'er smiled: "Old man Wu, what do you call me?" ”

"What can happen?" Lord Wu waved his hand: "I'm here to add makeup to you, I said you guys should hurry up and bring it in." ”

After a while, a few of the housekeepers came in with a large suitcase, put it in the courtyard and withdrew.

Li Luan'er twisted her eyebrows: "What kind of makeup do you add?" My dowry is already quite a lot, how can you still ......"

"My old wife took a few granddaughters out as a guest, but I happened to meet your mother-in-law, talking about Chengyue's marriage, your mother-in-law looked down on you in her words, and said that she didn't ask you how much dowry you had, just asked you to enter the door to be able to settle down, this doesn't mean that your family is poor, I'm afraid that there is not much dowry, the old woman came back to talk to me, I was angry and couldn't sleep for a few days, no, I rummaged through the warehouse, and found some things to send to you."

Lord Wu patted the box: "Open it and take a look, if you don't like the old man, I'll give you something else." ”

Li Luan'er was very helpless, stepped forward and opened the box to look at it twice, and glared: "You really look like a nouveau riche." ”

Lord Wu stroked his beard and laughed again: "The nouveau riche is good, the one I picked for you can bluff people, no matter if you don't look like an upstart, it's true that you won't let your mother-in-law underestimate it." ”

Li Luan'er wanted to roll her eyes: "Old man Wu, my dowry is already quite a lot, most of which are prepared by my wife and me, think about it yourself, which one you or your wife has more money." ”

Lord Wu was speechless immediately, and only after a while did he say: "Mrs. Jin is more nouveau riche than me. ”

"You give me these things, where do you tell me to put them, Mrs. inquired, when Chengyue's mother married into the Yan family, the dowry was eighty-six lifts, and I had a little too much dowry, so I squeezed it for eighty-six lifts to fit it, and then asked me to put it in one hundred lifts." Li Luan'er explained to Lord Wu in a slow voice.

Lord Wu pursed his lips and said angrily: "What's wrong with a hundred lifts, tell me to get one hundred and twenty lifts, so that your mother-in-law dares to look down on you, you have to press her, be angry with her, and see what else she has to say." ”

When she said this, Li Luan'er was even more speechless.

But what made her speechless was still to come.

"Luan girl, Luan girl......"

There was another burst of high voices, General Gao entered the door with his front foot, and a family member also came in with a big box on his back foot: "Luan girl, the old man is here with you to add makeup." ”

Li Luan'er stroked her forehead: "Come in quickly, don't scream, this voice scares my sister-in-law, how can I live." ”

General Gao hurriedly covered his mouth: "It's bad, the old man forgot." ”

The family put the box away, and General Gao anxiously dragged Li Luan'er over to open it: "Look, old man, I found these things no worse than the one surnamed Wu." ”

"What did you say?" Lord Wu's eyebrows were upside down, and he stared at a pair of big eyes: "Old man Gao, you came to dismantle my platform?" ”

"Huh." General Gao saw Lord Wu at this time, and immediately gave his hand: "I didn't see you, it's rude, it's rude." ”

Lord Wu followed over and took a look, and saw that the box was full of gold and silver jewelry, as well as a bonsai of red coral, a box of amber cat's eyes of various colors, round beads, and a set of glass tea sets. ”

"What's there to be reluctant to." General Gao glared: "Old man Yan is so authentic, obviously he is a relative of his family, begging us to marry Luan, but he can't control his daughter-in-law, so that his daughter-in-law dares to look down on Luan girl so much, the old man I will be angry, what's the matter, if it weren't for the fact that Old Man Yan and I still have the same temper, I would have snatched Luan Yatou to my house to be my grandson's daughter-in-law, and it was his turn...... Anyway, there are not many old men next to me, these things outside the body are the most, I will send some to add makeup to the girl, and bring it over to suppress the Lin family, she is proud all day long, and it is not pleasing to anyone. ”

Lord Wu gave a thumbs up: "Old man Gao, you really think the same as me, you are worth making a friend." ”

Li Luan'er covered her mouth and chuckled, she already had some resentment in her heart about her future mother-in-law, the Lin family, this Lin family was really a bit excessive, and she was casually assigned outside, so that even people like Lord Wu and General Gao who were not very directors knew about it, and they were so upset for her, it seemed that if she didn't do something to suppress the Lin family, she would not be able to stop after marrying into the Yan family.

"Luan girl, quickly put away the things, get a few more dowries, when we shine on our makeup, we will also shake the eyes of these people in the capital, so that those who are shallow-eyed will also know that we don't have much else, so we will have more money." Lord Wu patted Li Luan'er on the shoulder: "Girl, you are the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Yan family, this dowry is more, no matter how much your mother-in-law raises, anyway, we have the confidence of being rich." ”

Li Luan'er smiled: "Yes, what you always said is that in this case, I will pack up more dowry." ”

"That's right." General Gao also smiled: "If it's not enough, if you say something, I'll bring you two more boxes, I still have some porcelain at home, my kid said it was a good thing, I really can't see where it's good, if you like it, I'll find it for you." ”

The frightened Li Luan'er hurriedly waved her hand: "This can't be done, Uncle Gao likes porcelain the most, can you ask me to make an enmity with my uncle." ”

General Gao glared: "He dares." ”

"It's enough, Mrs. and I have prepared a lot of dowries, my sister-in-law has added some, and the Gu family next door also sent something to add makeup some time ago, and the Pei family also sent a lot, and there is also Father-in-law Yu...... With the two of you, I don't even know how much to load. Li Luan'er waved her hand: "Okay, let's have tea, my brother has made a lot of refreshments, and you two have never tasted it." ”

"Then I'm going to try it." General Gao and Lord Wu were not polite at all, and directly followed Li Luan'er into the flower hall for hospitality, Li Luan'er asked Ruizhu to make tea, and she personally selected some novel and delicious refreshments and brought them up: "You two taste it, I eat it very well." ”

Before the refreshments were served, the two were snatched up, General Gao and Lord Wu took a bite at a time, and the small refreshments were eaten after a while: "It's delicious, it tastes really good, Luan girl, is there anything else." ”

Li Luan'er brought a lot more: "You two eat slowly, there are some refreshments in this one, and you are full." ”

The two grabbed quickly, ate three plates of refreshments, and poured two pots of tea before waving their hands and saying goodbye: "Cheng, the things are here, you clean up slowly, we won't stay longer, let's go first." ”

Li Luan'er sent the two out of the door with a smile, thanked them again, and waited for General Gao and Lord Wu to get on their horses and leave, and then she turned cold.

I went back to the backyard, but I saw Mrs. Gu coming out with her waist on her back: "Sister, what's going on, this ...... How could General Gao and Lord Wu send such things, good guys, they actually startled me. ”

"Nothing." Li Luan'er hurriedly helped Mrs. Gu: "Sister-in-law, take a good rest, it was sent to me to add makeup, and I will ask someone to clean it up in a while, and then add another sum to the dowry list." ”

Mrs. Gu nodded, and at the same time was a little worried: "How do you clean up those things?" I'm afraid that eighty-six dowry, I'm afraid it won't be able to fit. ”

"It's fine." Li Luan'er waved her hand generously: "If you can't carry eighty-six lifts, you can pack a few more, and let's get more than a hundred lifts." ”

Although Mrs. Gu was a little confused, she also knew that Li Luan'er had always had the most ideas, so she didn't say anything.

Li Luan'er on the front foot sent Mrs. Gu back, and ran to Mrs. Jin on the back foot, only saying that she asked Mrs. Jin to help her pack up the dowry of one hundred and eight lifts, and she had some things to go out for, or come back at night.

Mrs. Jin didn't ask much, but only told Li Luan'er to be careful and brought someone to pack her things.

Li Luan'er went back to the house and changed into a neat coarse cloth thick clothes, took some silver and went out, and when she got out of the capital, she let go of her legs, and the whole person shot out like an arrow from the string, so fast that people could hardly see the shadow, even the sparse pedestrians on the road saw it, and only when a gust of wind blew over.

Li Luan'er went all the way north, trying her best to cross the Shanhai Pass as fast as possible, and at this time, she felt happy, and there was indescribable happiness in her heart, the speed became faster and faster, and her spiritual power seemed to be slightly loosened, as if it was growing faster than when she was cultivating.

Don't say how Li Luan'er is, just say that Mrs. Gu is still a little uneasy, and she rested for a while to look for Li Luan'er, but she heard Ma Xiaoya say that she went to Mrs. Jin's room, and Mrs. Gu found Mrs. Jin again, but she still didn't find anyone, but Mrs. Jin grabbed her and asked her to revise the dowry list, and Mrs. Jin took the idle people in the mansion to sort out the dowry again.

Mrs. Yuan Jin thought that she didn't know how much to prepare for the dowry, so she prepared more when she asked someone to prepare the mahogany box, and prepared a total of more than 120 identical mahogany carved boxes, she planned to ask Li Luan'er to marry decently.

Later, Li Luan'er inquired about the Lin family's total of eighty-six dowries, she wanted to give her mother-in-law decency, so she also asked Mrs. Jin to prepare according to this number, Mrs. Jin felt wronged Li Luan'er in her heart, but who asked Lin to marry when her family was already a little ruined, and she did her best to prepare so many dowries with her, and later when Zhou Zhang and the others married into the Yan family, they did not exceed Lin's dowry, and Mrs. Jin was not happy that Li Luaner had a dispute with her mother-in-law, so she prepared according to this number.

Now that Li Luan'er wants to add more dowry, Mrs. Jin is naturally willing to turn out the remaining mahogany boxes, repack all the dowries that were originally full and overflowing, and add the makeup sent by Lord Wu and General Gao.

After packing up the dowry, Mrs. Jin couldn't wait for Li Luan'er, and she couldn't see her until dinner, so Mrs. Jin wanted to ask someone to go out to look for her, but she heard a few screams, and then, the courtyard door opened, and Li Luan'er walked in with a white tiger.

With a bang, Li Luan'er threw the white tiger on the ground: "Madam, find a fine iron cage and put it up, which is also a dowry." ”R1152
