Chapter 494: Dowry and Good People
Lu Yunshen jumped over the wall with An Yixin in his arms and came to Anyuan, and Lamei and Narcissus led the little maids to come forward and salute. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info red beans and mung beans went back directly to the General's Mansion after getting off the boat, and lunch had already been prepared at this time. Shen Sheng also arrived after a while, An Yixin saluted Shen Sheng, thanking him for taking care of his mother and younger brother these days, and then a group of people ate in the kitchen.
After lunch, Shen Sheng accompanied Shen Yu and Lu Yunshen into the palace court. Zhao Ziyan was bored and went to Zhoujiawan to visit the 5,000 Lu Jiajun stationed there. An Yixin returned to the main courtyard and was about to quietly count the red envelopes given by the eldest lady, and the two housekeepers asked to see them with the account book.
The first sentence they said startled An Yixin, although she and Lu Yunshen did not hold a wedding, Zhao Ziyan followed 10,000 taels of gold.
The two housekeepers smiled and stretched out their hands to the side and pointed, "Prince Zhao said that getting married is the first happy event in life, and he hoped that the eldest princess would be happy, so he didn't use a silver ticket, but really exchanged 10,000 taels of gold, and put it in the treasury of Anyuan." ”
Hearing that there were 10,000 taels of gold in the yard next door, An Yixin pulled out his legs and walked out, and the two grandmothers followed with a smile and holding the account book.
Walking out of the door, An Yixin turned his head to look at the wall between the main courtyard and An Yuan, it should be opened. She said to herself.
There are many huts in the third courtyard of Anyuan, and the main house is a two-story small building, with solid doors and windows made of blue bricks, which was originally built for the warehouse. Mama opened the door and saw a golden brick mountain.
An Yixin was still sensible, and he was still thinking in his heart that 10,000 taels would not pile up a gold brick mountain, but his body was very straight, and he pounced on it with his arms outstretched.
"This floor is all the dowry gifts prepared by the general for the eldest princess, and the congratulatory gifts for Prince Zhao and the civil and military officials are all upstairs......" Mama said with a smile.
An Yixin lay on the Golden Brick Mountain, swallowing saliva and turning her head with difficulty, "This is the dowry gift given to me by the general, and Zhao Ziyan's congratulatory gift is upstairs?" ”
Mama nodded, "This is 30,000 taels of gold, and the general saw that Prince Zhao did not use silver tickets, but exchanged them for gold, so he also exchanged them for gold......" Speaking of this, the two grandmothers couldn't help laughing, probably thinking that these two masters were really rich and nonsense.
"There are also congratulatory gifts for civil and military officials?" An Yixin thought about the second half of Mama's sentence just now, and asked again. After the death of two emperors in a row, the general's return to Beijing was already in a state funeral, and the hundred officials actually sent congratulatory gifts?
Seeing that she was surprised, the two grandmothers laughed even more, "This is the marriage between the general and the eldest princess, not to mention in Wusheng Villa, even if they hide in the sky, they can't touch a drop of joyful wine, and the congratulatory gift is also to be sent to the mansion." ”
Hearing them say it so bluntly, An Yixin also laughed. She was pulled by the gold, struggled twice before getting up from the gold brick mountain, looked at the second room on the two sides, and saw that there were large boxes and small cabinets and stacks of brocade boxes, which were piled up, and couldn't help but ask: "These dowries are all prepared by the general?" ”
"The eldest lady has prepared some, and the general has added a lot." The two grandmothers said, and handed an account book to An Yixin, "This one records the things in the warehouse, and the other two books record the Grange shop and the steward's population, if the eldest princess wants to see it, we will bring it in a while." ”
An Yixin waved his hand, "Don't look at that first." She spoke, and walked upstairs, "Let's go and see Zhao Ziyan's little gold mountain first." ”
Next to Zhao Ziyan's Xiaojin Mountain, there is a congratulatory gift from Shen Sheng, but it should be for the big apprentice, mainly with swords and weapons. Shen Yu's congratulatory gifts are mainly calligraphy and paintings. The two grandmothers saw that An Yixin just glanced at it and didn't care, so they reminded her with a smile, "The eldest princess looks at these calligraphy and paintings, it is said that if you sell them, you can sell several small gold mountains." ”
An Yixin smiled. Although Shen Yu is young, the prime minister naturally has a large number of people to please him. His reputation as a young genius is well-known, and these people naturally prefer books, calligraphy and paintings as gifts. Although Shen Yu had learned to paint, he was forced by Shen Sheng. He only loves to read books and does not love calligraphy and painting, and the books are estimated to have been left by himself, and the calligraphy and paintings are given to him as a congratulatory gift.
Of course, these calligraphy and paintings can't be sold, go back and find someone to appreciate and appreciate, write an approximate price in the account book, and keep it as a gift in the future.
Well, having said that, Shen Yu has been in the Lu Mansion for too long, and he has no psychological obstacles at all when he gets money and gifts at a young age. An Yixin thought with a smile in her heart. But of course she didn't care that Shen Yu had become a corrupt official, and glanced at the calligraphy and paintings with a smile, "Are there any painted flowers and animals, or cat play pictures or anything like that?" She remembered that Yuedi was good at drawing, so she could pick two and give them to her.
One of the two grandmothers looked at the account book, and the other looked at the painting scroll, and An Yixin read it with them. The two grandmothers didn't know how to draw, so An Yixin directly picked two that she thought were beautiful and asked the grandmother to write off the account, and was going to give them to Yuedi tomorrow. As for Wen Zheng, making her two boxes of candy for one will make her happier than giving her anything.
It just so happened that next to Shen Yu's congratulatory gift was Prince Jiang's congratulatory gift, which was full of dazzling shelves, from jewelry to new and ingenious gadgets overseas. An Yixin knew at a glance that it was all prepared by the moon flute.
Next to it are the congratulatory gifts of civil and military officials, which are really varied, and there are everything.
Why can't they really send gold bricks! An Yixin said with emotion in her heart.
"The congratulatory gifts over there in the military city are still on the way. When you get there, you won't be able to put it down. The two grandmothers followed behind An Yixin, and when they saw that she was only looking east and west, they reminded, "Eldest princess, look at it, where do you have to build another warehouse." ”
Hearing that there were still gifts on the way, An Yixin's heart was overjoyed, and after thinking about it, he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the main courtyard. "The general's personal guards have all moved to the front yard, and the third entrance of the main courtyard has just been converted into a warehouse."
The two grandmothers' eyes widened in surprise, and then they both laughed.
An Yixin was puzzled, "Isn't this a bad idea?" ”
The two grandmothers shook their heads with a smile, and one of the older ones said: "The eldest princess has just gotten married, and now the main courtyard is empty, but in a few years, there will be a group of children, and the main courtyard will not be enough to live." ”
An Yixin really didn't expect this, so she opened her mouth stupidly and responded, "It's the same!" ”
The three of them were talking in the warehouse, and they heard Hongdou shouting loudly outside the building: "Eldest princess, Mrs. Xiao Wang sent someone over to say that Princess Jiayi is here, and she and Mrs. Wang are about to accompany her." ”
An Yixin's smile on her face couldn't be contained for a while, she was stunned, turned her head to look at her grandmother, and asked with a smile, "What is she doing here?" ”
The two grandmothers were not confused by her smile, and knew that she was inquiring seriously, so they explained in a whisper: "It should be for Miss Yunrong's business." The former prince died violently, she was sent to the nunnery, and Princess Jiayi came to the eldest lady several times. The eldest lady never spoke, only said that she would wait for the eldest princess to come back to get an idea. ”
The eldest lady must have asked my mother, and then deliberately left a good person to do it for me. It's just that this Princess Jiayi is too anxious, I just arrived in the morning, and she came over in the afternoon. An Yixin thought in her heart, looked at the account book in her mother's hand, and asked, "The general got married, did Princess Jiayi send a congratulatory gift?" (To be continued.) )
