The maid beside Rong Xue hurriedly comforted Rong Xue and said, "Aren't the county lord and grandfather for the good of the girl?" Give more dowry, and the girl's face will be better. In the future, you can be respected in your in-laws' house. Besides, we're going to be so far away. ”

Snowfall nodded. Thinking about her brother and sister-in-law, who she hadn't seen for three years, she missed her very much, and said, "I thought that when I got married, my brother and sister-in-law would definitely come back to give me the marriage." However, at the critical time when the northwest was under construction, the emperor did not let it go. Also, my sister-in-law also gave birth to a little nephew at this time. The weather is freezing and the distance is far away, so it is not suitable for traveling with children. I have no choice but to give up. I missed it this time, and I don't know when I will see you again? ”

The maid was about to persuade when a big maid came in and said, "Girl, the old lady is here." ”

Ling Xue didn't care about being sad, hurriedly changed his clothes, and rushed to the front hall, just as Bai's sedan chair fell at the second gate. With a smile on her face, she helped Bai Shi to get off the sedan chair and said, "The old lady is cold weather, why do you still come to my side, if there is anything, just send someone to call me over." What if Madame freezes? ”

Bai Shi smiled and held the hand of the snow, and said as he walked into the house, "What is this cold?" I was born and raised in the capital, so I'm used to the cold. It's not cold in winter, and I still feel uncomfortable. But your clothes are a little thin, these little hands are a little cold, and you don't wear a big wool cloak? The people around you don't know anything, why didn't they add clothes to you? ”

Rong Xue smiled and said, "I was just sitting in the house, and the fire wall was burning very warm. They didn't feel cold, so they didn't wear the squirrel cape they had prepared. ”

While speaking, he had already arrived at the main room where Langxue lived, and Rongxue invited Bai to sit on the chair of the Taishi in the middle. On Huang Huali's Taishi chair was a warm gray squirrel chair, fluffy.

Lang Xue personally took the tea that had just arrived from the maid and gave it to the Bai family. Bai was in the midst of filial piety, and was originally wearing a silver-white silk silver rat cloak, but now he entered the house and took off the cloak. The moon white brocade water grass dark pattern of the South Sea brocade jacket exposed inside. Underneath is a cyan satin leather skirt. This one is plain white. It sets off Bai's very elegantly.

Although the Bai family is now an old lady. It's all the child's grandmother. However, the maintenance is very good, and the age is not very large, but he is in his forties. But. There are very few wrinkles on the face. It's just that there are some tiny crow's feet around the eyes, and it still looks like an image of a beautiful young woman.

The Bai family is still so particular, even in filial piety. You can only wear silver, white, and cyan colors, and you can only wear pearls and silverware, but you are still very elegant, and you are worthy of being a trend-setting figure for a lady in the capital.

Rong Xue smiled and said, "The old lady is still so young and beautiful, and she makes us more and more unbearable." ”

Bai Shi looked at Lang Xue's apricot face and peach cheeks, wearing a rose red bikina, and a red flowered skirt, he only felt that it was bright and compelling, to be honest, it was really a little more beautiful than his daughter Chen Wenhui. It's just that he doesn't have Chen Wenhui's confident temperament. However, she has a different style, a gentle and lovely image.

Bai said with a smile: "I'm a grandmother-level person, and where else is there any beauty." But you're getting more and more beautiful. You're about to have a happy event, and you need to take care of it. Are you using the skin care products I gave last time? It is the top product in our workshop, and the materials are exquisite, including pearls, snow lotus, and many precious herbs for beauty and beauty. There are very few productions. It's very easy to use, you must stick to it, you can't be lazy. ”

Rong Xue smiled and said, "It's very easy to use, I think after using it, this skin is getting more and more delicate." I use it every day now. Thank you, old lady. ”

Bai Shi looked at Lang Xue with a smile and said, "And the recipe for that medicinal bath, have you used it?" ”

Lang Xue said, "Yes." That is, it can be used in our house. When my sister-in-law left, she gave me the keys to the storeroom and told me that all those things could be used. Ordinary eunuchs, who can use this medicinal bath recipe? However, after I used it, I did feel much better. Even now in winter, my hands and feet won't be cold. ”

Bai said: "Since it is good to use, we must insist on using it." The body is the most important thing. Those herbs, no matter how precious they are, are not as important as the body. Silver, things, nothing. If you're short of anything here, just ask me, I'm not short there. This medicated bath must be used consistently. When you were a child, you suffered, lost maintenance, and damaged your body, but now you have to take care of it well, but you can't be careless. ”

Lang Xue was very moved, and hurriedly said: "Yes, if I am short of anything, I must tell the old lady." ”

Bai nodded with satisfaction and said, "Seeing that the day of your trip to Southern Xinjiang is approaching, after the New Year, you will start to set off." This time, there are our guards, Wen Hui's palace guards, as well as the army of the imperial court, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites. So, you can bring a few more things, it's safe. Have you prepared all your dowry? You don't have any elders here, so who will help you prepare? ”

Rong Xue smiled and said, "The old lady is very grateful for letting Mama Hong come over to help me every day." Mama Hong is very thoughtful. My stuff is basically ready, and it's all in the box. In the past, my sister-in-law and brother gave me a lot of property, including shops, properties, houses, and fields. In the past few years, I have run a shop, specializing in selling some specialties from southern Xinjiang, and I have made some money. ”

"I sold all of them. and he received a total of 800,000 taels of silver. I left 100,000 taels of silver as the bottom money of the pressure box and brought it to southern Xinjiang, and I didn't use the silver, it was directly the silver ticket of the Dachu Bank. The Manchu Communist Party is a small clip. For the remaining 700,000 taels of silver, I have asked my brother's uncle, the elder who often goes to southern Xinjiang to do business, to buy me a lot of shops and fields in southern Xinjiang, especially around the city of Guangzhou. The deeds of these things are in my hand, and a small clip can fit them. ”

"The rest are some of the things I am used to with me, the clothes, jewelry, utensils and so on that my brother and sister-in-law have bought for me in the past few years. There are also little gifts from the handkerchiefs. Keep it in your mind. That alone contained twenty large boxes. ”

"There are also some things that my brother and sister-in-law sent me from the northwest, medicinal herbs, woolen materials, precious stones, ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, books, and a lot of precious furs, and there are also thirty boxes."

"There is also a dowry given by the Ministry of Rites of the Imperial Court, everything, satin, cloth, jewelry, porcelain, ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, books, etc. Although the value and quality are not as good as what my sister-in-law and brother gave. However, there were also twenty large boxes. ”

"There are also ten large boxes of precious objects, clothing, etc., given by you, Mrs. Mingzhu, and Mrs. Zhongyi Gonghan, who are close to you, Old Madam."

Bai Shi smiled and said, "This thing is not much, but it is not too little. How can there be a dowry of more than 100 lifts. The key is that the silver tickets that take up the least amount of space in your dowry, real estate, are the most valuable. Why do you have a dowry of one million taels of silver? But it was more than the dowry of Princess Lichuan back then. ”

Lang Xue smiled and said, "To say, although I, the county lord, am sealed by the imperial court. However, it is just a face-saving product, and there is no real power. The dowry given is also average. It's still more from my sister-in-law and brother. How else could there be so much dowry? ”

Bai smiled and said, "Your sister-in-law gets along." Once these are ready, is there anything else? ”

Lang Xue said: "In addition to these, my sister-in-law also prepared some manpower for me, I think it is more important than things." Among them, there are 500 guards, all of whom are top-level and well-trained, and they have fought on the battlefield in the South Seas. Twenty or thirty maids. There are eight big girls, all of whom I am used to, and I have been helping me manage various things for many years. It's also capable. There are a total of ten companion rooms, of which eight are equipped with technology. Some are good at managing business, some are good at socializing, some are good at farming, and some are good at managing household chores. Some are good at medicine, and some are good at cooking. ”

"I also gave me ten widows who I trained in Nanyang, all of whom can sing and dance, and my sister-in-law is too thoughtful."

Bai Shi nodded and said, "This is what I want." You're not going anywhere. We can't reach it, and we have such a stepmother, and that's the queen. After you go, you have to socialize more with those noblewomen and noblewomen, and you have to have a good relationship with those powerful people, so that you can help Mu Li Gongzi more. Your life can be better. ”

Rong Xue nodded and said, "Before, before my sister-in-law left the capital, even the little things I would reward the servants in the future were ready. It's all some well-made little silver nude, little gold naked, silver beans, gold beans, little red gold rings, little silver rings and the like. ”

Bai Shi smiled and said, "It is appropriate to prepare more. ”

Lang Xue said: "That's it, I'm still afraid of some negligence, so please ask the old lady to bother to show me again." ”

Bai Shi said happily: "I came here for this today. ”

Lang Xue was busy with Xie, called the maid over, brought a thick booklet over, and asked Bai to read it.

Bai Shi was originally a capable person, and these things were just a piece of cake for her. Even so, it took two or three hours to read it all.

After reading it, Bai put forward some suggestions, and he had to prepare some more things for snow. Lang Xue hurriedly made a list, and Bai Shi thought for a while and had nothing to add before saying, "Then so be it." Go back, you let Mingzhu take a look. She's getting more and more capable now. Also, did Wen Hui tell you? When you get to the place and stabilize, you have to secretly contact the people of Yizhou Island. It is the closest to Yizhou Island. If there is anything, talk to Wen Jun and Wan Shiyi, maybe it can help you. ”

Thank you for the snow. (To be continued......)
