These two rosewood black lacquered gold wooden boxes are generally the size.

And the one below, like the box containing the title deed and the silver ticket, also has a small copper lock hanging from it.

Lu Qingrong was really curious, she was already very surprised when she opened the box just now, what could it be inside?

The more Yin Pingru didn't let her see it, the more she wanted to know, and finally opened it driven by curiosity to find out.

As soon as he opened it, Lu Qingrong reacted instantly.

These...... She really didn't need it for a while.

There are two hardcover books lying quietly in the wooden box, and there is no title on the big red cover.

Lu Qingrong subconsciously looked left and right, making sure that there was no one else in the inner room, so he carefully opened one of the books.

After only turning the page, she secretly said in her heart, as she guessed, this is an indispensable item in the dowry, and the dowry painting at the bottom of the legendary press box is made.

Unlike the natives of ancient times, Lu Qingrong didn't feel embarrassed, but sat down and flipped through a few pages with relish.

The painting in the painting is not very new to Lu Qingrong, but this delicate touch and ancient charm is something she has never seen in her previous life.

Although each page is a variety of versions of "two goblins fighting", there are also different scenes and different forms, and in the background, whether it is the natural scenery of landscapes, flowers and birds, or the carved beams and paintings of the mansion in the courtyard, there is no sense of shoddyness, and even some noisy momentum.

If this album were placed in modern times, it would definitely be able to compete with the antique treasures in the museum.

Lu Qingrong thought to himself.

I don't know if my mother carefully selected it for her.

I remembered that when my mother saw her about to open this wooden box, the look on her face was so unnatural, I am afraid it was just a formality.

After all, in the past few days, as long as Yin Pingru talks to her, she always doesn't forget to tell her over and over again, when she arrives at the Hou Mansion in the future, it is important to learn the rules first, and it is best to respect the prince like a guest, and don't be alone in the past few years......

When he was discussing marriage with the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion, he said that he would not have a round house now, and Yin Pingru also tactfully told Lu Qingrong.

In two days, it will be March 16, and the remaining days are gradually becoming fewer and fewer, and Lu Qingrong's originally calm heart began to feel a little apprehensive.

Two days later, her life will enter a new phase that is completely different from the previous ones, a longer and stranger stage.

What awaits her, Lu Qingrong can't predict.

People always have more or less fear of the unknown, and she is no exception.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingrong suddenly lost interest in the album in his hand.

She put the two dowry paintings back in the wooden box, hung the copper lock, and planned to find a proper place to put them away.

In the end, Lu Qingrong set her eyes on the small camphor wood box that she had used since she was a child, and she was used to putting things she thought were important there.

As he was packing his things today, the box was now on the round table in the middle of the inner room.

Lu Qingrong went over to open the box, took out all the things inside, and put the two wooden boxes containing the silver tickets of the title deed and the dowry paintings in the innermost, only then did he feel more steady.

After that, Lu Qingrong put back the things she had just taken out one by one, most of which were gifts from everyone in her family on her birthday in previous years.

A bright red in it caught her attention.

It was a jade pendant that slipped out of the silk handkerchief that encased it, a well-proportioned bright red color, with strange patterns on it.

Lu Qingrong picked it up and looked at it under the lamp for a moment, remembering that this was the agate jade pendant that Mrs. Jiang of the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion gave her at her first birthday banquet.

At this moment, I unconsciously took it in my hand and checked it, only to suddenly find that this jade seemed to be heavier than I imagined, I am afraid that it was not agate, but jadeite with a higher density.

I thought I was too young at that time, and I felt heavy no matter what I was holding in my hand, and I couldn't tell the weight, so I mistook it for agate.

Now it seems that if the texture is so transparent and the color is so uniform, I am afraid that it will be even more valuable.

Lu Qingrong was about to carefully wrap it up again, but he felt that the lines on the jade pendant looked a little familiar.

I must have seen a similar pattern somewhere......

At this time, I couldn't think of a reason, so I just wrapped it up and put it back in the box.

This box will not be sent to the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion with the dowry tomorrow, but will be brought with it on the day of the wedding.

The second day is the day of makeup delivery.

According to the rules of the Great Qi Dynasty, the dowry must be sent to the man's house by the relatives of the woman's mother's family.

This time, Lu Qingrong's second uncle Lu Yizhong and eldest brother Lu Chengjie went together.

Early in the morning, Lu Yizhong and Lu Chengjie led the makeup delivery team and left the Lu Mansion in a mighty way.

Lu Qingrong's makeup is full of 64 lifts, each of which is full of weight, including furniture, antique calligraphy and paintings, decorative jewelry, silk cloth, clothes for the four seasons, and even medicinal herbs, tea, etc.

The first lift has already left Jinglin Hutong, and the last one has not yet left the gate of Lufu.

The people who deliver makeup in the Lu family are very low-key, and the sound of gongs and drums along the way is not too public, but after all, the sixty-four makeup gifts are placed there, and they can't attract attention if they want to.

Even Lu Qianyu joined in the fun, and waited in the gate of the Lu Mansion until he was carried out of the door from behind, and then went back to the Wisteria Pavilion.

"Fourth sister, it's a pity that you didn't go to see the makeup just now!" As soon as she returned to the Wisteria Pavilion, Lu Qianyu began to sigh.

"What's the ...... Go and see the makeup delivery yourself! Lu Qingrong couldn't help but laugh.

"That's right." Lu Qianyu also reacted, "You definitely can't imagine how spectacular those sixty-four makeup dowds look!" It's a lot more than the dowry of the eldest sister we saw together! I remember, the eldest sister seemed to only have thirty-two lifts at that time, right? ”

Seeing that Lu Qingrong frowned slightly when he heard this, and looked back at her with some embarrassment, Lu Qianyu continued: "You don't have to be embarrassed, marrying the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion is not ordinary, and it is natural to have more makeup." What's more, the dowry gift sent by the Hou Mansion was more than ten times that of the original Di Mansion! ”

Lu Qianyu said it rightly.

"How do you know so clearly?" Lu Qingrong really hadn't paid attention to these things.

"The third sister said it." Lu Qianyu was afraid that she wouldn't believe it, "She also listened to the second aunt, you can't believe the second aunt's ability to settle accounts, as soon as something passes in front of her eyes, she can tell the price the same!" ”

Lu Qingrong couldn't frown anymore this time, and couldn't help laughing: "You actually even arranged the second aunt!" ”

"Why! I'm talking about the facts! Lu Qianyu pursed her mouth, "You dare to say that the second aunt doesn't have that ability?" ”

Lu Qingrong naturally had no way to refute it, in the entire Lu Mansion, when it came to settling accounts, if the Geng family recognized the second, no one would dare to admit the first.

"Alas, when I get married in the future, I don't know if I can have this kind of scene." Lu Qianyu's expression couldn't tell whether it was longing or loss.

"It's all for others to see." Lu Qingrong remembered the box full of silver tickets and title deeds that her mother gave her yesterday, "Father and mother will definitely be ready, where to worry about yourself!" Besides, money is always something outside the body, and there is always a time when the wealth is gone. To live a good life in the future, the main thing is to look at the people. ”

Lu Qianyu felt that there was some truth in what she said, but she didn't want to think about it.

I gave makeup today, and I will send my relatives tomorrow.

The parting was imminent, and when she thought that she would be left alone in the Wisteria Pavilion in the future, Lu Qianyu was inevitably a little sad.

"In addition to Green Bamboo, who else are you taking with you?" Lu Qianyu remembered that when her eldest sister got married, she brought several maids.

"The Grange and the rough maids and mothers-in-law are not counted, and there are four maids in the Wisteria Pavilion to follow, and there is also Mother Ye's family."

The mother Ye in Lu Qingrong's mouth is Tinglan, the maid of her mother's dowry.

When he was in Henan, Yin Pingru was the master and married a steward surnamed Ye in the family, and now he is also a person with both children.

At that time, her mother decided to let Mother Ye go to the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion with her, and Lu Qingrong sincerely excused herself.

She knew that the relationship between her mother and Mother Ye was extraordinary, and Mother Ye was the only one by her mother's side, from the Yin family to the He family to the Lu family, and she had always been by her side.

But Yin Pingru was very insistent this time, saying that the Hou Mansion was not an ordinary family, and there was no one who was at ease to follow, so she was really unsteady.

Lu Qingrong had no choice but to accept his mother's kindness.

"Mother Ye actually left with you!" Lu Qianyu pretended to be angry and said: "Let's just say that I definitely can't compare to you, Mother Ye is the only one!" "Wisteria Pavilion has never been in charge of her mother, and in the past, there was a big and small matter, and Mother Ye took care of it, so Lu Qianyu was also very close to her.

Lu Qingrong knew that Lu Qianyu was not really angry, and he didn't answer her words.

Lu Qianyu really started to talk about something else, and all morning, the two sisters in the Wisteria Pavilion chatted very lively.

At this time, the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion was even more lively.

The Lu family's makeup delivery team left the Lu Mansion at the beginning of the morning, and it took an hour to arrive at Rong'en Street.

The people in the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion who had been waiting for a long time couldn't help but be a little stunned when they saw the full sixty-four dowry.

Isn't Lu Fu a scholarly family, how can he be so wealthy?

Isn't that Miss Lu Si an oil bottle, how can there be so many dowries?

Especially this time, the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion is in a hurry to get married, and it is for Chongxi.

But whenever you encounter a family affair like Chongxi, most of the woman's makeup will be very small, why did Lu Fu do the opposite?

Most of the doubts in the minds of the people fall into this category.

Among them, the most puzzling is Mrs. Wu of the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion.

Looking at the various makeup gifts that were placed in the courtyard and praised by everyone, Mrs. Wu was very puzzled.

She had to work hard to find a suitable lady like Lu Qingrong to come back, could it be that she was negligent in something? RS
