When Lin Zhao was rampant on the grasslands of the Western Regions, Rongguofu fell into a speechless embarrassment.

Baoyu is fifteen years old, and even if Mrs. Wang "said it to the lady in the palace" all day long, she is in a hurry to say goodbye to Baoyu.

But suddenly, the standby candidate Baochai was engaged to Lin Zhao!

Completely ignoring the huge differences in each other's identities.

And Daiyu, who Baoyu never forgot, didn't look down on Baoyu at all, and was engaged to Prince Heng.

At this time, although Mrs. Wang felt uncomfortable, in the end it was just a joke that the Xue family was shallow-eyed, and she couldn't look down on her like a treasure like jade. As for Daiyu, her thin and weak body does not meet Mrs. Wang's criteria for choosing a wife at all, and if she is willing to marry any prince, then go!

But in the past few days, news has come again.

Xue Pan is engaged!

The woman is Li Kun's cousin Coco Li.

It turned out that on Baoyu's birthday that day, Xue Pan went to Yihong Courtyard to celebrate him, but met Miss Coco Li in the garden.

Coco Li is dressed in a family of poetry, but she is not a sister of the Jia family, and her appearance is detached and indifferent, Xue Pan fell in love at first sight, but she treated each other politely, just glanced at it, then bowed her head, and only waited for Coco Li to go away before continuing to walk.

It just so happened that this matter was seen by Baochai, who came to Tanchun to play.

So Baochai informed Aunt Xue, and Aunt Xue immediately looked for Li Kun......

However, this Coco Li has an easy-going temperament, and he also has a good impression of Xue Pan.

So the two were soon engaged.

It is said that the two of them are engaged, and Mrs. Wang doesn't feel anxious, but after Jia's mother heard about it, she said to her: "Baoyu is sixteen years old this year, and your lord is out of office again, so it is inconvenient to return to Beijing, you have to inquire carefully, who has a good girl in the family, you might as well inquire, it's time to get ready." ”

Mrs. Wang hurriedly agreed, and the Buddhist beads in her hand turned quickly. Sister Feng saw it from the side, smiled mockingly at the corner of her mouth, hurriedly lowered her head, and stood behind Jia Lian in a proper manner.

Now that Sister Feng is out of confinement, she doesn't care about her family, but in order to accumulate virtue for her children and to let Sister Qiao have a good future in the future, Sister Feng has all her energy on Yingchun and Xing Yanyan's family affairs.

After all, it is the daughter of Rongguo Mansion, and the dowry for the Spring Festival is basically complete, Sister Feng only needs to check the list to see if the things are delivered on time and in good condition.

Xing Xiuyan's dowry really gave Sister Feng a headache for a while. One thousand taels of silver is not much, and it is really difficult to buy a decent dowry that meets the conditions of the Li family and Xing Xiuyan's identity. She thought about it for a few days, and then ordered Xing'er to ask Grandma Liu to help inquire about the dowry lists of the other two daughters-in-law of the Li family, compare them one by one, and come up with a way to do it.

In addition to buying a set of three-entry courtyards on the crowded street, he also created a set of furniture of medium to high quality, and in addition, a few boxes of silk and satin were evenly distributed everywhere, and Ping'er, Qingwen, Musk Yue, Servant Shu, and Painting were all good girls, and the little girls under them were piping, embroidered, or traced, and they changed a lot of delicate clothes. Sister Feng added those high-standard clothes to Yingchun, and the rest was given to Xing Xiuyan. It was the medicinal materials sent by Baoqin, Daiyu, Baochai, and Miaoyu, and there were not many of them, but they were enough for a box.

Therefore, when Xing Xiuyan saw her dowry list, she was completely stunned. She knew that Sister Feng had asked for a thousand taels of silver for her as a dowry, but what was on this list was more than one thousand taels?

Sister Feng said earnestly: "Most of them are from Sister Lin, the two Bao girls, Baoyu, the sisters in the garden, and Miaoyu gave it to you, and they will give it again when they add makeup." You don't have to be polite, just accept their wishes. As long as you have a heart, there will always be a time to repay them in the future. ”

And said, "Our wife, you don't have to count on it." You're a girl who has gone out again, and it's not easy to make decisions about your mother's affairs, so you still have to be hard. Live your life well, I will send someone to see you in the future, if you have grievances, just send someone to tell me, but you have to work hard to stand up yourself, don't rely too much on us. ”

Xing Xiuyan hurriedly agreed with tears in her eyes.

When it was time to add makeup, the sisters sent a lot of rare antiques to Yingchun, and sent a lot of red gold to Xing Yuyan.

Seeing that Yingchun and Xing Xiuyan's dowry was so rich. Some people who came to congratulate the gift couldn't help nodding secretly, they had heard that there were many famines in Jiafu before, and they thought they were going to see a joke, but they didn't expect that although this Jiafu was unbearable, they didn't treat their daughter badly. The second girl's dowry is 40,000 or 50,000 taels, especially the whole box of Western gadgets, which is very difficult to find. It's the niece's family, and there are also five or six thousand taels of things, and it's rare that I'm willing to marry some things from Western sons, which shows the intentions.

But what they didn't know was that Jia Yu and the others were red when they looked at the box of Western things. After Jia Mu heard about it inside, she smiled and said to the people who came to watch the ceremony: "Their sisters have a good relationship. Brother Zhao is also a good wealth boy sealed by His Majesty, and Feng Yatou is a spicy person, she must have seen that the money in her hand was not enough, so she forced Yu'er to find Brother Zhao and give it to her. ”

Lin Zhao is the "good wealth boy" personally sealed by Emperor Xiaode, and everyone in the capital knows about it.

They all know that Lin Dutang not only manages the news of Jinyiwei to spy on the news and stabilize the capital, but also continuously sends gold, silver and jewelry to Emperor Xiaode's private treasury.

It's just that all this money is sent by Zhengda and Guangming, and there is no people's fat and people's ointment at all.

has such earning power, and his sister gives her cousin makeup, which is really casual and not worth mentioning.

Mrs. Xing was originally very dissatisfied because Sister Feng secretly took a lot of Western things to Yingchun and Xing Xiuyan, but she was shocked when she heard Mother Jia's words, and when she thought of Daiyu, her covetous and greedy heart was extinguished.

No matter how greedy she is, she doesn't dare to touch the Lin family's tiger whiskers.

The sons of the families in the capital don't dare, she is a big aunt, she is still a continuation, her family is from a small family, she has no power and power, and naturally she has no courage.

Mrs. Wang lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking. Mrs. Wang Ziteng said with a smile: "If it weren't for the old lady's sake, or how Feng Yatou forced it, Uncle Lin and Lord Langhuan would not give it." ”

Jia Mu smiled proudly: "Both of them are good children who are filial. He said to Mrs. Xing again: "Your lord is good this time, he is very thoughtful in his plan to welcome the girl, which shows that he has a heart." Lian Er's family is good, they are contributing money and effort, and they are really hard. ”

Mrs. Xing hurriedly stood up and said, "They can get such a sentence from the old lady, and it is not in vain that they have worked hard these days." ”

Mother Jia has a plan in her heart, and naturally knows that the price of Yingchun and Xing Xiuyan is far more than the silver given by her house, and it can't be that Sister Feng, Daiyu, Baoyu, Baochai and others are trying to paste it upside down.

She is also happy to see that their brothers and sisters have a good relationship, and they are married to a good family, and I heard that Sun Shaozong is also an official who is prosperous, and he can also help Baoyu in the future.

Xing Xiuyan is also a good girl, her son-in-law heard that he is a smart and motivated person, he has been selected for Xiucai, and he is planning to take the exam next year. Therefore, when Baoyu asks for something for herself, as long as it is not too out of line, she is willing to give it.

Everyone talked and laughed for a day. In the evening, before Sister Feng went back to drink saliva, she was called to Jia Yu with Jia Lian. Sister Feng smiled bitterly and gathered all her energy to face the battle.

East Courtyard.

Jia Yu and Mrs. Xing took their seats, their faces pale. Sister Feng and Jia Lian stood in the middle of the house, Jia Lian stood casually diagonally, her eyes aimed at the roof, but Sister Feng stood in a proper manner, with her head down.

Jia Yu couldn't hide his anger, he asked coldly, "Where did those Western things come from?"
