They can only make the dowry look better when they think about it, but the dowry is a matter of the Yanguo Mansion, if the dowry is not good, after all, the Gu family will be embarrassed, and people will think that they have climbed the Yanguo Mansion.

Gu Mingzhu smiled faintly: "It's okay, in two days, the second aunt sent a post to invite a few ladies to the mansion for a small gathering, and I will come to talk to her." ”

Gu Mingyu's dowry list has also been drawn up, all of which are taken out according to Gu Mingzhu's dowry reference when she married into the Xianwang Mansion, although it is not rich and powerful, but it is also quite sincere, not worse than the dowries of other princes and princesses.

It's just that Gu Mingzhu couldn't help frowning when she looked at the list, what she was worried about was that with the current situation of the General's Mansion, how could she get such a rich dowry.

In the previous life, when she married to the Xianwang Mansion, the West Mansion without this toss swallowed most of the wealth of the East Mansion, and only gave a small half to take with her, but it was also terrifying, but the General's Mansion in this life was already stretched, and it was only very difficult to take out so much for a while.

She frowned and thought about it, and said to Mao: "It's better to prepare according to this list, I'll help make up for how much is missing, I can't teach Mingyu to lose face." ”

The royal marriage is not an ordinary family affair, if there is less dowry, it will be difficult to raise your head in the palace and the clan for the rest of your life.

Mao sighed, and knew that only in this way could he take care of it, so he should go.

Although the Gu family has been in the hands of the Mao family for a period of time, it has gradually improved, but it still lacks a lot of rules, and the matter of the marriage soon spread, and the people talked about it, all of them knew that the county lord helped prepare a very rich dowry for the third lady, in comparison, the marriage of the fourth lady to the Yanguo Mansion and the dowry are simply not mentioned.

The news also reached Gu Mingli's ears, she didn't raise her hand holding the embroidery needle for a long time, her face was flushed, and the scar was even more frighteningly red, which was particularly obvious.

The half-embroidered magpie pillow towel in her hand was wrinkled, and she couldn't heal it for a long time.

It's just that her heart is more difficult to soothe, and she sat in the room in a daze for a long time, and didn't even call for dinner to be sent to the room, and the maid came in the next day to find that the half-embroidered pillow towel had been cut and thrown aside.

The maid was startled and asked, but Gu Mingli said that she didn't want to embroider the wrong thread.

Gu Mingzhu didn't know about these, and she put all her thoughts on the post that Cui Lin sent her.

In the past few days since she returned home, she has received a lot of posts, all of which are from the wives and ladies of various provinces who want to invite her to sit in the house under various names.

Ah Bi looked at the full number of cases and posts, and said with a smile: "Now your mansion is thinking of inviting the county lord to sit in the mansion, and the people who have come to ask An to give New Year's gifts in the past few days have almost broken the threshold in front of the mansion." ”

Gu Mingzhu smiled indifferently, since the queen of heaven deliberately let her show her face in front of the princesses and wives during the great court meeting, and the Gu family got married again, those shrewd ladies in Chang'an Guifu immediately got the wind and sent posts to the county lord's mansion, and a few of them even came to Gu Mingzhu with New Year's gifts in person, bent on befriending Gu Mingzhu and the Gu family, if it weren't for Gu Mingyu's marriage, it was already inconvenient to go out to meet guests, but I was afraid that I would be harassed well.

She shook her head: "It's all pushed, it's hard for me to get out of the palace once, I just want An Ansheng to live in the mansion for a few days and spend the New Year cleanly." ”

When Mama Han heard this, she couldn't be happier, and nodded again and again: "No, the county lord bothered in the palace in the past, and it is important to go back to the house to rest." ”

Xiao Kui chuckled, and came forward with a post: "County Lord, there is another post, which was sent by the little boy of the Cui family." ”

Gu Mingzhu hurriedly looked over, took the post and opened it without asking, and when he finished reading, he couldn't help but smile on his face, and he didn't speak for a long time.

It wasn't until she came back to her senses that she found that Ah Bi, Xiaokui and Han Mama were all looking at her curiously, and she didn't know what was wrong with her, so she realized that she was too concerned about Cui Lin's affairs, and she looked anxious, and even forgot to cover it up, and couldn't help but make a big red face.

She coughed lightly uncomfortably: "Let's go to the village tomorrow, Cui Jialangjun will have a banquet, and a few other ladies will also go together." ”

The last sentence seemed to explain to them that this was not her private meeting with Cui Lin.

Mama Han smiled and said, "I'm going to let people prepare tomorrow's carriage and supplies." ”

Abi also chuckled: "The maid is going to let people prepare the New Year's gift." "Naturally, a New Year's visit should bring a New Year's gift.

Only Xiaokui smiled from ear to ear: "Cui Jialangjun is really courteous, and he specially set up a banquet in Lizhuang in the New Year and invited the county lord to go." ”

In the past, the banquets held by each family in the New Year were close relatives and friends, and Cui Jialangjun invited the county lord, which clearly meant a different thing.

The crimson on Gu Mingzhu's fair face lingered for a long time, and he blinked and put away the post, but his words were reckless: "He invited Mrs. Sun, and last time I was very close to Mrs. Sun, so I thought that I would be invited too, and it would be more lively." ”

What she said was that she didn't even believe it, Mrs. Sun Cui Yu was Cui Lin's cousin, how could she bring someone else if she invited her own family, not to mention that Gu Mingzhu's identity was the county lord, how could she be a companion, she just wanted to hide her shyness.

Xiao Kui covered her mouth and smiled, and quietly retreated, leaving Gu Mingzhu to sit in the room with a red face, and it took a long time to return to normal.

In fact, she said the opposite, Cui Lin invited her, and then invited Cui Yu to go, just to ask Cui Yu to accompany her to sit in Lizhuang, not to be talked about, but also to know that she and Cui Yu deed, and wanted them to have more contacts.

Supporting his chin with his hand on the desk, Gu Mingzhu looked at the snow that had stopped outside the half-rolled curtain, and was a little distracted. Cui Lin invited her to leave the village, for what? You can't really celebrate the New Year.

She suddenly remembered the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the blazing court, Cui Lin's carved outline, and the eyes that reflected the firelight, looking at her gentle smile, the pampering in her eyes almost made her unable to breathe, until this moment she still had a heartbeat.

Suddenly, she was surprised to find that she didn't know when she would think of Cui Lin from time to time, and she would think of him as soon as she had anything, as if this would make her feel more at ease, and make her feel like there was an existence behind her that she could rely on, which she had never felt before.

But now she can really feel it, and she is not repulsed, and she has begun to slowly accept this wonderful feeling.
