Chapter 19 The East Market Buys Pearls, and the West Market Buys Brocades

Fu Mingzhu's wedding date is set for the end of August.

There should be three books and six ceremonies for a major marriage event, and it usually takes two years to get down seriously. Fu Mingzhu only had two months from marriage to marriage, which is also strange.

No one cares about that. Needless to say, Mrs. Pei couldn't wait for Fu Mingzhu to die early and be overborn. Hua Yulou is the son of the Hua family's house, and it is a stain on the entire clan, it would be good to marry a daughter-in-law, who would care about his decency.

Fu Mingzhu is fortunate to have picked up a life, and he will not complain about the inconsiderate wedding. However, preparing the dowry is a troublesome thing, the Pei family does not come to block her, it is to burn high incense, and there is no one around who can help, so all the decorations and phoenix crowns need to be prepared by herself.

She looked at her empty bedroom and sighed lowly.

Xu was in order to vent her anger, and before she came back, Mrs. Pei ordered someone to empty everything in her room, and even looted the dozens of taels of silver saved in the box. Cuiguo'er is gone, and it is said that there will be no more maids to serve her.

She sat still for a moment, then quickly stood up and sneered.

Think she'll be out of trouble if she doesn't prepare a dowry?

Scold.

She slowly removed the silver bracelet from her left wrist. A layer of silver was torn open, revealing a few sheets of paper that had been thickly stuffed inside.

It was six silver tickets, each of which was a large amount of five hundred taels.

This was when she escaped from Xuancheng two years ago, her mother put it on her.

Her mother, Wang, knew that her sister was an unfuel-efficient lamp, and before she died, she was worried that Pei Fu would treat her harshly, so she ordered her to keep half of the three thousand taels of silver tickets and hide them in the silver bracelet, and give the other half to her aunt. But Fu Mingzhu didn't listen to Wang's words.

She thought that even if someone like her aunt gave the silver, she was afraid that she would not be able to get a good deal, so she simply refused to give it.

Carrying three thousand taels of silver on his wrist, Fu Mingzhu claimed in front of his aunt that the Wang family had not left half of the copper plate. The eunuchs all have family backgrounds, especially when there is only one person left in the family who escaped, it is impossible for them to be without anything with them. Fu Mingzhu said no, and her aunt was so angry that she cleaned her up and down and threw her into the firewood room, but she didn't find anything valuable-the silver bracelet was called a "maid's bracelet", which was not worth a few dollars. Pei Fu is not enough to take a fancy to a silver bracelet.

Fu Mingzhu was beaten in the firewood room, and it froze for several days in the winter, but he was not dead. The subordinates carried her and threw her in front of her aunt, who saw that she was looking good and was good, but smiled: "She is handsome, she is good at giving birth and raising, and she may not be able to make a big difference in the future." ”

That's it.

Now it's finally time to use it.

With a huge amount of money in her pocket, she went to a bluestone slab in the backyard and dug out a small box of gold and silver buried in it. This includes the small sack that was brought back from the Puji Temple.

Wearing the only remaining clothes, Fu Mingzhu hurriedly walked out of the mansion. She first found a casino and threw away the dozen pieces of gold and silver - the serious pawnshop was afraid that the Pei family would find out, and the casino was a good place. It's all overturned, and there are four hundred taels of silver tickets on his body.

Immediately turned the corner and went to the east of the city, hired a carriage, selected a few horses of red, Xiangfei, turmeric, coupling and other festive colors of fabric, two pairs of filigree gold bracelets, six plum beads and beads gold hairpins, Huadian, Bianfang, bead hairpins, earrings, etc. It's not that she doesn't know how to appreciate jadeite and jade, but in her life-and-death life, gold is far more valuable than jade.

Finally, when it was dark, I took a carriage to the tailoring shop in Nanfang, and in addition to customizing the phoenix crown and xiaxia curtain, I also made five sets of new clothes from the inside to the outside in different seasons.

And that's just what you're wearing. She calculated that the next day she would come out again to buy furnishings for the house, and on the third day she would come back to buy bed nets and bedding and so on...... There's a lot of stuff.

Saying-

The official eunuchs are very particular about marrying, and the bride must do the red wedding dress herself, and the shoes and socks offered to her in-laws and husbands must be done by herself. In the rest of the dowry boxes, the big and small objects are all prepared by the mother-in-law and sister-in-law in the same detail, not only to have a face for money, but also to have a good meaning. Such a large package of purchases as Fu Mingzhu is really unruly.

She pulled a cart of gold and silver jewelry and cloth into Pei's mansion. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the house, seven or eight strong nursing homes suddenly came up and held her down. The one at the head shouted: "The eldest lady has ordered, as soon as Miss Cousin comes back, she will send the lobby, heirloom!" ”
