Chapter 143: The Choice of the Underworld
At the end of the month, Lu Mingzhe, the son of the Lu family, personally brought dozens of cars of dowry gifts to the Shen family.
The new aunt personally hired him, and he heard about it.
However, in addition to the new aunt, the Quanfu people invited were all famous ladies from Yunzhou City, and even Mrs. Zhizhou also came.
Now that everyone is stammering with the future head of the Lu family, who doesn't seize this opportunity?
The people along the street looked at the dozens of cars full of things, each of which was decorated with Shu embroidery silk, which was simply extravagant to the extreme.
The Shen family greeted them very grandly, and cleaned up the main hall, the two side halls, and even the flower hall in the backyard.
When the Shen family was unlucky before, no one was willing to come to the door, for fear of being involved with the Shen family.
Now there is such a happy event, and they have come up one by one.
Originally, it was over-hired, just invite a few tables.
There are too many people who don't want to pretend to come to help, especially the ladies of various families, who are thinking about Fa'er.
This one said that he wanted to help with the arrangement, and the other said that he was good at needlework, and they all said that they would help.
Lu Ying had no choice but to pack up a few more empty rooms in the back garden and feast these guests.
It's not the right day yet, and if it does, there may be a lot of people coming.
The Shen family is not as good as the Lu family, the door is slight, and the yard is not very big.
Lu Ying was busy and scolded his nephew one hundred and eighty times.
But seeing her nephew so excited, she suddenly stopped panicking.
After all, Zhe'er's posture was there, which was to announce to everyone that he was serious about the eldest girl of the Shen family, not casually perfunctory, and not on a whim.
Soon, the dowry was unloaded from the carriage from the Lu family, and Old Madam Shen and Shen Xiaowen looked at the dowry in front of them for a while.
First of all, Quanfu children each held two oily and slippery live geese in their hands.
Then there is a full brocade box, in which are placed Changsheng grass, Jiahe, longevity threads, glue, lacquer, five-color silk, acacia bells, and nine inks.
Wrapped in colorful satin money, Lude, vanilla, phoenix emperor.
Relic beasts, mandarin ducks, longevity, fish, deer, black, nine women, and yang sui made of gold.
Then there were trays of silver ingots placed under the eaves, each of which weighed two or two.
Then there are two big boxes of southern pearls, rubies, sapphires, and turquoise.
It hurts people's eyes.
Shen Xiaowen looked at the new uncle Lu Mingzhe, who was walking towards him, wearing a golden brocade robe and a black jade crown.
He hurriedly greeted him, but his steps were unsteady, and his steps staggered slightly.
In terms of family background, he is far inferior to the young man in front of him, and his official position is even worse than 108,000 miles.
Shen Xiaowen saw Lu Mingzhe coming and was busy bowing and saluting, claiming to be a subordinate official.
I didn't want to bend down yet, and my arm was grabbed by Lu Ying on the side.
Lu Ying felt embarrassed for a while.
"Master, you are the big man today, don't do the same thing in the court!"
Shen Xiaowen stood up straight in a daze, but saw that Lu Mingzhe, who was handsome and extravagant in front of him, had already bowed down to him.
"Zhe'er meets Uncle Shen!"
Lu Mingzhe is only hired now and has not officially ceased to be honored, and this title cannot be changed.
But that etiquette is already the courtesy of the son-in-law to the elders.
"Okay, okay, this, this...... Don't be polite......"
Shen Xiaowen looked at the imperial court officials in front of him who were several grades older than himself, and saluted him so respectfully.
He was at a loss for what to do, but Lu Ying on the side helped to solve the difficulty, ordered someone to accept the dowry, and asked Lu Mingzhe to talk.
Suddenly, the front and back yards of the Shen family were noisy, and the atmosphere was lively, and everyone was smiling.
The entire Shen Mansion was wrapped in a cloud of joy, and so was the Lanyue Pavilion.
Yun Xiang and other little girls are also happy for their eldest lady.
"Where is the dowry gift that my uncle came in person?"
"This hasn't passed the door yet, so I spoil our eldest lady, and in the future, I will hold our eldest lady in the palm of my hand."
Another little girl who had just come back from listening to the news from outside gestured and smiled, "You really didn't see the wild goose, and you don't know where the eldest son got it, it's oily and slippery!" ”
"Hahaha...... You've just seen this! ”
The little girl outside was in a good mood, and the atmosphere was more lively.
After all, they are all people who are going to follow the eldest lady to Lufu at the beginning of next month, and they are all a little excited.
In the middle, Shen Yuzhu wore a pink dress, and the cuffs were finely embroidered with silver threads with the pattern of the moon flowers, which added a few more dignified patterns in the festivities.
She combed a simple half-flipped bun and put a hairpin inlaid with rubies, which set off a dignified and delicate face, adding a bit of bright color.
At this time, there was no trace of excitement on her face, everyone only saw the wealth of the Lu family, but could not see the blood of the Lu family.
Besides, she doesn't really want to be a young lady in the Lu family for the rest of her life, she will leave after all, sooner or later.
Mother Zhang looked at Shen Yuzhu's calm face, and hurriedly whispered, "I'll go and let those little girls be quiet, I don't have to disturb the master." ”
Shen Yuzhu raised her eyes and looked at Zhang's mother with a smile and said, "Don't worry about them, today is a good day, just make trouble!" ”
Zhang's mother nodded, and the words that were hidden in her heart before still couldn't hold back and say them.
"Master, you ...... Do you really want to marry into the Lu family? ”
A touch of bitterness oozed from the corner of Shen Yuzhu's lips, and she lowered her head to look at her face
