When Xiao Sun heard Gu Mingli's words, he immediately burst into tears and laughed.

She grabbed Gu Mingli's hand, and her tone was even more gentle and moving: "The concubine knows that Master Dao will definitely have a way." ”

Gu Mingli's smile deepened, he surrounded Xiao Sun and said in her ear: "Rou'er take a closer look at the dowry list and see what is left." ”

Xiao Sun's single name is a soft word, and what Gu Mingli likes is her delicate and soft temperament. Hearing Gu Mingli call her by her name at this time, Xiao Sun's face turned red, and he flipped through the dowry list according to Gu Mingli's meaning, and the more he flipped it, the more frightened he became.

She only now learned that Lu Daohe's dowry list had been artificially divided into two volumes, sharing more than a dozen pages. The last time Gu Mingli showed her the front part, most of them were some furniture and jewelry, as well as some silver coins at the bottom of He's pressure box, as well as a few Zhuangzi and shops.

Halfway through, Gu Mingli reached out and pulled the list over, and said softly: "You think about it carefully, what is missing, write it down first." ”

Xiao Sun only glanced at the things written on the back of a few pieces of paper, and found that they were all real estate such as Zhuangzi shops, and there were antiques, calligraphy and paintings and other things in the back. It's worth a lot more than what she has in her hand.

At that time, the edges of the He family's dowry list were tightly stitched with needles and threads, and Gu Mingli artificially dismantled them once. Probably didn't expect to use this dowry list in the future, so he sewed it up along the original needle hole. He didn't want to show the entire dowry list to Xiao Sun's family, but time was in a hurry, and he thought that he would show the list to the old lady tomorrow at the latest, and he would have to sum it with Xiao Sun's family, so he didn't have so many scruples.

Gu Mingli was still guarding himself back then. Thinking of this, Xiao Sun's heart was a little sad. It's just that she pressed this emotion very well, and according to what Gu Mingli said with a smile on her face, she wrote the things that had been missing over the years on the paper on the side.

Sure enough, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury. From luxury to frugality, the things that have been purchased for Gu Cunzhang and Gu Qingyan over the years, and the furnishings in Gu Cunzhang and Gu Qingyan's house. Most of Xiao Sun's own flowers were used by this dowry. What Gu Mingli handed over to her, she had used nearly half of it over the years.

When Xiao Sun thought about it, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened. It's just that she still has selfish intentions, and at this time she still wants to leave something for herself.

After writing the ones that had been spent, Xiao Sun handed over the list he had written to Gu Mingli with some uneasiness, and hung his head and waited for Gu Mingli to look at it.

Gu Mingli read it carefully against the booklet, and his gaze at Xiao Sun's was a little complicated: "Why did the Zhuangzi and the shop in Yizhou be sold?" ”

"Master forgot, I mentioned to the master once a few years ago, the Zhuangzi and shops in Yizhou lose money every year, and I also subsidize a lot of silver money to fill the shortfall. There's really no way around it. Xiao Sun looked at Gu Mingli and almost burst into tears, "It's also strange that I thought about it for a while, it's my sister's Zhuangzi, and I can't sell it anyway." ”

Gu Mingli seemed to remember that Xiao Sun's family had indeed mentioned such a thing to him, and besides, he had also sold a lot of the Zhuangzi and shops in He's dowry in private, so he no longer pursued this matter, and only lowered his head and continued to watch.

Xiao Sun secretly exhaled, and she looked at Gu Mingli, who was buried in his head and did not speak. An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The husband and wife worked together for a long time, and Gu Mingli sent Xiao Sun away, saying that he had something to do outside, and he would not return to the inner courtyard today.

After Xiao Sun's left, Gu Mingli brought some documents out of the inner courtyard, which naturally included He's dowry list and Xiao Sun's list.

That night, Gu Mingli was not as he said. After the first change was knocked, Gu Mingli hurriedly entered the inner courtyard, but went straight to Old Madam Gu's Tansong Courtyard, and sat for half an hour before leaving the inner courtyard.

When he went out, the second door had already been locked, and the mother-in-law who guarded the second door at night was the mother of a small maid named Huang Lian who was following Gu Cunke's side, and she had already been Gu Cunke's eyes and ears. She felt that this thing was a little strange, and when she changed shifts with others, she sent her own kid to Gu Cunke to deliver a message.

On the second day, there was nothing to do during the day, and when she went to ask for peace in the evening, Mrs. Gu left Gu Qingwan alone. Because Gu Cunke had reminded him in advance, coupled with the expressions of Old Madam Gu and Gu Mingli yesterday, Gu Qingwan already had a bottom in her heart, but when she got the dowry list, Gu Qingwan was still a little stunned.

The dowry slip in her hand was yellowed on paper, and it seemed to be some years old. Gu Qingwan flipped through it roughly, although there were many dowries listed in the list, but it was not to the point where Gu Qingwan was surprised.

For the average daughter of a family, the dowry is also reasonable. The eldest girl Gu Qingshu doesn't compare, at least compared with the second girl Gu Qingya, she only has a lot more in her hand.

But Gu Qingya is only a girl in the third room of the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, and besides, her dowry is not privately subsidized by the Xue family is not listed in the dowry list. The He family is the only daughter of the He family, and half of the He family's wealth is her dowry, Guan is not a shallow person, she said that even she was red to remind Gu Qingwan.

How can He's dowry be only so little?

Gu Qingwan originally thought that after so many years, it was impossible to keep He's dowry intact. If Gu Mingli and Xiao Sun's work is not too much, she will always be difficult to tear her face, and this year, a foreign daughter can only have confidence by relying on her mother's family. But Gu Mingli's hand completely made Gu Qingwan's heart cold.

The only thing she saved in the hands of the Gu family was the marriage event, but the Gu family had already sacrificed her to stabilize the relationship between the Huai Wangfu and the queen. She married into the royal family, even if the fifth prince is mentally incomplete, but the Gu family can't be neglected at all.

From the moment the holy decree came down, she didn't have to look at Gu Mingli and Xiao Sun's faces at all. As long as she marries in peace on the day of her wedding, even if she causes some trouble for the Gu family now, Old Madam Gu has to endure it.

Gu Qingwan's eyes sank, and when she looked up and saw Old Madam Gu looking at her fixedly, she smiled and said, "This is my mother's dowry back then?" My grandmother had seen this dowry list back then, so she had to help me grow my eyes. ”

Saying that, Gu Qingwan sent the booklet to Old Madam Gu, and she couldn't tell what kind of expression it was on her face.

Old Madam Gu's eyes darkened, and she closed the booklet with her hand: "When your father sent me the list yesterday, I read it. It was more than ten years ago, and now I am also an old fool, how can I remember it so clearly. After that, she looked at Gu Qingwan with deep meaning, "Since your father said yes, then it is." When I have opened up the treasury on the west side, I will ask your mother to send someone to bring the things over, and you will come and see if you are to go with you to the prince's palace in the future. ”

From the decree of marriage, Empress Chen quickly chose a suitable place, which was the former site of the original Qi Palace. The king of Qi died in the northwest when the emperor was still alive, and the princess of Qi died of illness soon after.

Although the current Qi Wangfu is a little old, it has been expanded around the original site and renovated again, which is not bad. On top of that, that place was only one street away from the Three Princes' Mansion.

Although the five princes have to be married in a single family, even if they have a princess, the three princes are not worried that the five princes are far away. Empress Chen's decision will naturally make the three princes grateful.

Gu Qingwan nodded: "I don't know when the second wife will send someone over, I want to learn embroidery with the embroidery girl, when it's not good, my grandmother can let someone pass on a word." After that, she glanced at the dowry in Old Madam Gu's hand again, and asked softly, "Grandmother, can I copy this dowry list?" ”

"What are you doing with this list?" Presumably realizing that her tone was too harsh, Old Madam Gu slowed down her voice and said, "This is what your mother brought from the He family, and we have to add our father-in-law's, as well as your second room, together can be regarded as your dowry." When all this is done, I will send someone to copy it for you. ”

Gu Qingwan tilted her head and glanced at Old Madam Gu: "So, no matter how much my mother stays to marry, won't there be less of that share in this duke and the one in our second room?" ”

"It's nature." Old Madam Gu nodded, and her voice softened a little more.

In fact, Gu Qingwan married into the royal family, because she was the princess, and compared with the dowries of the first few princesses, there were many more girls in the second room of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion than other girls. It's just these things, she naturally doesn't plan to tell Gu Qingwan.

Gu Qingwan thought for a while, her face flushed, and she seemed to be a little ashamed: "My granddaughter doesn't understand anything, and no one teaches me, but it makes my grandmother embarrassed." In that case, it's up to the grandmother to decide. ”

These words seem to be alluding to the fact that Xiao Sun's is not.

Previously, Gu Qingwan said to Old Madam Gu that Xiao Sun's was not, and Old Madam Gu wanted to reprimand her a few words. What "She is your mother-in-law, you are not allowed to say this again in the future, and when others hear it, they say that the girl of our Gu family is not educated" or something like that, but today, she is silent.

Gu Qingwan accepted it when she saw it, accompanied Mrs. Gu to say a few digressions, and then took Baotian and Jin Hai back to Yuanxiang Pavilion.

Yesterday, Mrs. Gu hinted many times, but she just hoped that she would take Baodian and Jin Hai with her when she walked around. Anyway, it's not a big deal, Gui Ye stayed in the Yuanxiang Pavilion to guard the house, which was exactly what she wanted.

Old Madam Gu's speed was also very sharp, and she asked Yupan to come to Yuanxiang Pavilion to spread the word every other day, and when Gu Qingwan arrived at Tansong Courtyard, Yuzhan was standing in the middle of the courtyard and commanding. Seeing that it was almost over, there was no one to move things to the Tansong Courtyard.

Although the courtyard was busy, Yuzhan saw Gu Qingwan at a glance, and hurriedly walked around: "Girl, let's talk to the old lady first, there is still about a quarter of an hour to clean up here." ”

Gu Qingwan nodded, and took Baotian and Jin Hai into the inner room. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
