Chapter 187: The Dowry of the Same Day
Shi Yu looked at the two of them and laughed, and immediately said, "Forget it!" What kind of mouth is your pistachio, it's clearly the mouthpiece of the housekeeper's mother-in-law, don't talk about it, the young lady is gone. The three of them saw that Nangong Nianxi had already walked out of the hall, so they stopped teasing each other, chased a few steps and followed Nangong Nianxi to the gate.
When Nangong Nianxi arrived at the door, Ming Hao had already arrived at the door on a red horse, and the convoy pulling the dowry behind him could not be seen at a glance, the eyes were full of red, the wrapped carriage, and even the horses in each carriage had big red flowers hanging around their necks.
Nangong Wen welcomed Ming Haoduan into the Prime Minister's Mansion and came to the living room, Nangong Nianxi felt that Ming Haoduan looked at her with a meaningful look when he passed in front of him, and he didn't retract his gaze until he walked over.
Nangong Nianxi thought secretly: "What does he mean by this?" Do you want to show off with me? The eyes are wrong, they seem to be doting eyes, no, no, they are wrong, today he came to marry the second sister. Don't add to your worries. ”
After everyone sat down, Ming Haoduan presented the gift list of the dowry, Nangong Wen looked at it first according to the rules, and after reading it, he looked at Ming Haoduan suspiciously and asked, "Duan Wangye!" Is there a mistake with this gift list? ”
When Xu Yuru heard this, she immediately got up and took the gift list from Nangong Wen's hand and asked, "Master!" How could something so big go wrong? Are you reading it wrong! ”
"Woman's view! I don't have a flower in my eyes, how can I see it wrong? Nangong Wen said.
"Isn't that wrong? What's wrong? Xu Yuru wondered while watching.
"Is it too much? Didn't you find out that this dowry was according to the standard of marrying a concubine? ”
"Oh! It's really, Lord Duan! Could it be that you are mistaken, our family Qingrou is a side concubine? ”
"That's right, what this king wants to marry is your palm pearl, although it is a side concubine, but in the heart of this king, she is my concubine!" After speaking, he looked affectionately in the direction of Nangong Qingrou.
Coincidentally, Nangong Nianxi happened to be in the same direction as Nangong Qingrou, and when she saw Nangong Qingrou hearing that she was being hired with Concubine Zheng's dowry, she was sitting there proudly.
But Nangong Nianxi felt that today's Ming Haoduan, how strange was his eyes when he looked at him, just like the affectionate style now, how did he feel that his eyes stayed on his body.
After Xu Yuru heard this, she couldn't stop laughing, what kind of virtue did this daughter have, she could marry to Duanwangfu, and she smiled in her heart when she looked at the dowry list. didn't pay attention to who Ming Haoduan's eyes were looking at.
At this time, I saw another report from outside, and the team of the Nine Princes who gave the dowry was about to arrive at the door.
Nangong Wen listened, settled Ming Haoduan, and came to the door again with his family. At this time, I saw that Ming Haoxuan was still dressed in red, riding on a horse, sassy and heroic, looking particularly powerful.
The carriage and horses in the back are the same as Ming Haoduan's horse team, the horses wear large red flowers around their necks, and the guards accompanying the carriage are all energetic and happy. Ming Haoxuan came to the door, turned over and dismounted, and was welcomed into the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Because they were all a family after the wedding, after everyone sat down politely, Ming Haoxuan handed the dowry list to Nangong Wen to look at, Nangong Wen knew that he still didn't wake up from the surprise in the end, and kept nodding, and after reading it, he handed the gift list to Nangong Nianxi and asked her to put it away.
In order to show her gift list, Nangong Qingrou asked, "Eldest sister! The prince spoils the eldest sister is well known, I don't know how much this dowry is? ”
"Second sister, what do you mean? Although my sister knows that Duan Wang Ye is also spoiling you, my sister will congratulate you first, and even the dowry gift is given according to the standard of the concubine. ”
Nangong Qingrou heard that this compliment came from Nangong Nianxi's mouth, and her heart was even more excited, no matter whether her blessing was sincere or false, she didn't care, so she said: "Thank you eldest sister for your blessing, but this sister is really curious, what is the dowry of this concubine, can't you let my sister see and understand?" ”
Nangong Nianxi watched her speak in public, and said in her heart: "Under the eyes of everyone, I can't play any tricks if I think of her." ”
So he turned back to Yun Yue and signaled, and Yun Yue unwillingly handed the gift slip just now to Nangong Qingrou's hand.
Nangong Qingrou took the gift list, and was still sneering in her heart, these nine princes do not have any official positions, this dowry pit must be very shabby, and they don't need to look at it with their eyes, Xu Yuru also took a closer look.
The faces of the mother and daughter changed from contempt to shock, this dowry is simply unique, it is said to be according to the etiquette of the concubine, but in addition to this normal gift cake, this rare treasure, the shop money village and the rare white tiger skin, the snow lotus in the Western Regions, the snow fox skin in Kunlun Mountain, and the night pearl with goose eggs in the South China Sea...... There are countless of them, and they are all rare treasures.
Nangong Qingrou was holding the dowry gift list in her hand, her mood became more and more irritable, she was sarcastic and sarcastic after reading it first, but this fact was cruel, there was no joke about the Taoist family, and she was still unconvinced, if it weren't for the public, she really wanted to tear up the disgusting gift list with her own hands, but she still held the gift list tightly, as if she was pinching Nangong Nianxi's neck tightly.
Nangong Nianxi looked at it and said, "Second sister! It's just a gift list, I know that you feel sorry for your sister, although the ninth prince's family is thin, but as long as he treats his sister sincerely, my sister doesn't care about this dowry. Yunyue still doesn't put this gift list away, don't let the second sister fight for her sister. ”
After hearing this, Yunyue stepped forward and took back the gift list, for fear that she would be torn apart by her anger if she was too late in the next second.
Nangong Qingrou hated this, and said in her heart: "Who is upset with you, this little slut is a dog with bad luck, why can she get twice as much as her dowry, the same treatment of the concubine, although the name is different, but it is also the same specification, is it because she is the only one in the heart of the prince?" ”
Thinking of this, he turned around and looked at Ming Haoduan, only to see that he was talking to his father, his eyes were looking at him intentionally or unintentionally, and Nangong Qingrou immediately replied with a faint smile. But the prince didn't react, and after thinking about it, what was going on, how could he be indifferent to his response when he looked at himself?
She moved her body for a moment, and then looked up to see if Duan Wangye's gaze moved with her body, and what made her feel cold was that the prince's gaze didn't move at all, and he was still looking at this side affectionately.
Nangong Qingrou turned around slowly in fright, and when she looked back, she saw Nangong Nianxi sitting next to her, and she was suddenly angry in her heart: "This little slut! is about to get married, and he is still so ostentatious, the man who seduces him in front of everyone, but there are many people who have to maintain their own image, and they are angry, but there is nothing they can do, so they have to stare at Nangong Nianxi with hatred.
And all this was seen by a attentive person sitting opposite, and she secretly congratulated herself that she could read words and feelings, and this was the perfect time for her to climb up.
The Prime Minister's Mansion was hired at the same time because of the two princes, and there were many personnel, and the Prime Minister's Mansion held a banquet to entertain the two princes.
The matter of sending the appointment was spread by the people outside: "The Prime Minister's Mansion is the appointment of the two princes at the same time today, I heard that the dowry of the nine princes is a rare treasure in the world, and even the treasure house in the palace has never had such a precious treasure." I also heard that in order to compare with the Nine Princes, Duan Wang Ye also deliberately chose to get married on the same day, and he was hired on the same day, and he arrived half an hour earlier than the Nine Princes, but he still lost his ......."
These words later reached Ming Haoduan's ears, and he was immediately angry, and he secretly sealed the mouths of many people.
After a lively day, the Prime Minister's Mansion finally quieted down, and sent off the two princes, Nangong Nianxi finally returned to his small courtyard, and fell on his bed as soon as he entered the door: "Oops! I'm tired and finally back. ”
Xiao Yu saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Miss! You have to change this habit, you will get married immediately, why are you still so arrogant, and you have to pay attention to your image. ”
"Little fish! Isn't it nobody? How tired you have to pretend to be at home, leave me alone, let me lie down comfortably. ”
Xiaoyu had no choice but to shake his head, looked at his young lady dotingly, and reclined on the bed without any image.
At this time, Shi Yu and Yun Yue walked in together, and said in unison: "Miss! ”
"I'll just lie down for a while, and I'll sit straight and straight all day when I'm tired." After speaking, he sat up and was a little angry. When I looked up, I saw that the two of them were standing next to the bed with something in their hands.
Nangong Nianxi's face flushed, knowing that he had misunderstood them, he scratched his head embarrassedly, and said, "What's the matter?" What are you doing standing, sit down and talk, I've been standing for a day, and there are not so many rules in my own house. ”
Xiao Yu's sharp eyes saw the red phoenix crown Xia curtain in Shi Yu's hand, this is the wedding dress prepared by the prince for her young lady, the prince is really careful, this makes him ready. Xiaoyu shook Nangong Nianxi and said, "Miss! Take a look, the prince has prepared the wedding dress, get up and try it on, and you can change it if it doesn't fit. ”
Shi Yu put the clothes on the table, Yun Yue came over and handed over the dowry list, and said, "Miss! Did you see the second lady's face so scary today! Forget it after seeing it, you have to show it in front of everyone, now it's okay It's embarrassing to be thrown home, everything has to be compared with the young lady, and you think that you are treated more by the prince? ”
"Yunyue! Don't chew the root of your tongue indiscriminately, she is her, I am me, Duan Wang Ye has already given her face, I heard that Liu Qianqian's dowry yesterday was prepared according to the standards of the side concubine, if she passed the door, she would have suffered, she Liu Qianqian was a person who could not tolerate a grain of sand in her eyes. ”
"Anyway, we won't see each other much in the future, she can't stand the anger in the palace at that end, we can't see it, just let her worry about herself!" Yunyue didn't like to see Nangong Qingrou very much, in her mind, the young lady of her family was the most considerate and kind young lady in the world.
Nangong Nianxi listened and said, "Okay! She doesn't bother me, just treat her as if she doesn't exist, don't want anything else, Yunyue put away the gift list, how to say that this is also the prince's intention. ”
Seeing that they were finished, Shi Yu said, "Miss! Try the wedding dress, the prince said that it doesn't fit and there is still time! ”
Nangong Nianxi was just about to speak, but Shi Yun's voice outside the door remembered: "Miss! The second lady, mother and daughter, were at the gate of the courtyard, saying that they were here to deliver the wedding dress, to see or not to see?
Nangong Nianxi frowned after hearing this, it's so late, it's really not too tired to come to give the wedding dress, they were angry like that during the day today, and they came back at night, there must be some ulterior purpose.
"Miss! I'll send them back, they must have some conspiracy, don't spoil the young lady's mood. After Shi Yu finished speaking, he waited for Nangong Nianxi's orders.
"Now that it's here! It's still a kind way to send things, how can there be a reason to drive people away, Shi Yu went to invite them in, Yunyue, you pack up your things, so as not to be seen by them and have any bad thoughts. ”
"Yes Miss!" After listening to the order, Yunyue quickly sorted out her things, and then stood quietly behind Nangong Nianxi.
