Chapter 15 The Grass Dowry is Humble 2
Fengzao Palace
The palace beauty lazily crooked on the couch, and said weakly: "Are you saying that Zhu'er's fiancΓ© came to the capital from Gusu to ask for marriage?" β
The third lady of Dingguo Gong Li immediately nodded and said: "Poor child, I rushed all the way from Gusu to the capital, and I brought a teenage boy with me.
I was sick when I first arrived in the house, but now I am getting better. Therefore, I wondered if I should take advantage of his illness to let Mingzhu'er marry. Otherwise, if anyone knows, they will say that they are bullying people in the Guogong Mansion and do not recognize this poor son-in-law. β
The palace beauty sneered, she had seen a lot of faces and experienced a lot of things, but she couldn't see the real thoughts of her brother and daughter-in-law in front of her. Sure enough, it came out of a small household, and I really don't pay attention to doing things at all.
Mingzhu'er's girl is only a little older, twelve years old. If you get married so early, you have to be poked in the back. However, in the end, it was the man's daughter.
That person swore not to let himself enter the palace at that time, and he wanted to save the stupid queen Xu Ying.
His daughter is really uncomfortable just under her nose.
However, they can't be killed or tortured.
Therefore, for so many years, how this brother and daughter-in-law tossed Mingzhu'er, the palace beauty Xu Hui didn't care.
"Marry Mingzhu'er, is this what the family means?"
The Li family just planned to throw away the burden of Xu Mingzhu, with her, it would be really difficult for the daughters to kiss in the future.
It's just that when she destroyed her half a year ago, she was so inexperienced, so that now everyone in the capital still remembers that incident.
And because of this, her mother's side was about to scold her to death, but her husband's side did not express her position. Zhongfeng still managed it for her, but in private, she began to touch other princesses to make a second room for her husband.
If I don't do anything now, I don't know what will happen in the future. She had to make a desperate bet.
"Of course, otherwise, where would I dare to call the shots."
Li said a little weakly, but Xu Hui thought about other things, so she didn't notice that her expression was wrong.
"After all, it's only twelve years old, and if it is known by other prefectures in the capital, it won't sound good." Xu Hui said very slowly, and looked at Li with deep meaning, "Do you understand what I mean?" β
Li's mind spun quickly, and he instantly understood, "Catch up with Ming'er, I will send someone to set up a carriage and go to the Plum Blossom Nunnery again, and put her former maids and grandmothers there." β
"Don't treat Mingzhu too badly, she is also the young lady of the Dingguo Mansion."
Li nodded and said, "Don't worry." β
"I'll reward you with something here, you give it to her, and I can count it as adding makeup to her." Rewarding something can be regarded as a generous marriage. Even if that person is reasonable, Xu Hui is confident that he can talk about him.
Li returned to the mansion, opened the boxes, and was almost angry, "It's ...... to reward such a precious thing to that stupid girl."
Before she finished scolding, she reacted immediately. That little girl followed Gusu in the past, maybe she won't be able to come back for the rest of her life. I can't see Concubine Hui. When the time comes, who will know what the mother will give her?
Who is the accountant? Who can make it difficult for a little girl with no background to be the Duchess of Dingguo in the future?
The more Li thought about it, the more he reasoned, so he simply put this pile of things in his cabinet, and then instructed Mama to go to the warehouse to find some unused fabrics and ornaments, and send them to Yicuixuan at night.
The night is long and there are many dreams, so I will prepare everything tonight, and I will send out the door tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
When there was a knock on the courtyard door, Xiao Qingzhu had already fallen asleep. Sleepy-eyed, he yawned, opened the door, and watched as several people came outside carrying boxes and boxes of things into the courtyard.
He didn't even have a chance to stop them, and the men left, leaving only three tattered boxes in the courtyard.
He blinked his eyes for a long time before he realized that someone had sent something to this courtyard.
"Childe, childe, it's not good, it's not good, someone sent something."
Gu Qiu said with a smile: "If you don't go out to have a look, it's rare for someone to come to your small courtyard where birds don't." β
Zhao Hongfei said: "If you don't go, you know what it's given, and if you don't look at it, you know that it's definitely not a good thing, it's not worth it." β
When he said this, Gu Qiu became even more curious, so he had to pull him over to take a look.
From the afternoon to know how to treat Xu Ying's master and servant in the Dingguo Mansion, Zhao Hongfei had already expected it. It will be easy for him to marry this time, but the dowry will be very small.
However, he never imagined that he could be shabby like this.
Ordinary people have to carry twenty or thirty dowries and send them all the way to the man's house. The people in this house give dowries at night.
Dingguo Mansion, she really can't live anymore.
The next day, someone came to Lixiang Courtyard again and called Zhao Hongfei over. I don't know what he said, for a whole day, Qingzhu didn't see his son-in-law.
It wasn't until the evening that the drunken son was helped back to Lixiangyuan.
After those people left, Gongzi immediately came to his senses and said with a gloomy face: "I will return to Gusu tomorrow." β
Qingzhu nodded stunned, "Mmmm, okay." β
Qingzhu originally thought that there were four people along the way, Gongzi and him, as well as a man in red and a little girl with pigtails. Unexpectedly, before leaving, two unconscious people were stuffed into the carriage.
What's going on?
It was the two of them?
"Childe, Childe, it's Sister Hongdou, and there is ......"
Zhao Hongfei nodded, "I know, catch your car." β
"Oh," Qingzhu nodded hurriedly, then lowered the curtain and went outside to catch the car.
As soon as he left, Xu Ying immediately woke up and changed the position of the red bean to lean on, so that it could be more comfortable.
Zhao Hongfei said: "This time, it went very well. β
"Li's there, thank you. Otherwise, I don't think she's in such a hurry to send me out. β
Zhao Hongfei said: "I really think about it, follow me to Gusu?" You get off the bus now, it's still too late, and I'll arrange your place. β
Xu Ying said with a smile: "Gusu is a good place, I have wanted to see it for a long time, and this time I can finally pass." By the way, what to do with those dowries? β
"Stay in the yard and let out the news, there will be people interested."
Xu Ying smiled evilly: "The Li family estimates that there will be trouble." β
Zhao Hongfei held a book in his hand and looked at it secretly......
Gu Qiu, who was riding a horse next to him, and the little girl with pigtails, had a bright smile, and Qingzhu's heart was also beautiful.
A group of six people rushed to Gusu ......
