Chapter 181: With him, you won't be wronged
Ruoping couldn't help but be a little puzzled, the king of Beining and Song Baiwu personally came to the door to propose, shouldn't the young lady be very happy? Why didn't you see much joy on her face?
After hesitating for a moment, Ruoping asked tentatively: "Miss, is the prince here to propose marriage today?" ”
"yes." Mo Li nodded.
"Then why is the young lady upset? Don't you want to marry your master? Ruoping asked worriedly.
Mo Li raised his eyes to look at Ruoping, who was frowning, thought for a while and said, "I didn't want to marry him, but I didn't discuss it with me, so I came out like this, it's true." ”
Ruoping finally breathed a sigh of relief, it wasn't that she didn't want to marry, she turned around and poured a glass of water and handed it to Mo Li's hand, teasing: "Miss won't be stupid, right?" ”
"You're stupid, your whole family is stupid." Mo Li threw a roll of his eyes.
"Okay, good, good, I'm stupid, I'm stupid, right?" Ruoping covered his mouth and snickered, "The master's action this time is really fast, it is estimated that it will not be long before the young lady will be the princess." ”
"But why do I always feel unsteady in my heart, now that everyone has come to the door to propose, I don't know what to do." Mo Limo rubbed the teacup in her hand, she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was going on.
Ruoping pursed his lips and smiled: "What should I do, the top priority now is to prepare the dowry, and then wait for the sedan chair to come to the door with peace of mind." ”
Mo Li pursed her lips noncommittally, according to the six ceremonies that Mo Jinhua said just now, only two have been carried out now, and then there will be a small decision, a dowry, and a fixed date, and it is still far from the day of marriage.
"Ruoping is right." A voice sounded outside the door, and then the Duan clan came in with the maid Danyu, and said with a smile, "Xi'er doesn't have to worry about anything now, just prepare the dowry." ”
"Sister-in-law." Mo Li got up to greet him.
Duan took her hand, sat down at the table, and stroked the broken hair on her forehead: "Xi'er, when my mother was here, I told me that I must marry you off in a beautiful way." Now that you have found a good relative, I think my father and mother can feel at ease under Jiuquan. ”
"In addition to gold and silver, the dowry of my mother's parents back then also included ten shops and two Zhuangzi, which were all given to you, and the family gave you five shops and two Zhuangzi to marry. You've read all those account books, and you can say which one you want. ”
"Why do I want so many things? Where is this marrying, it's like splitting the family. Mo Li interrupted Duan's words.
"Xi'er, the dowry can't be too thin, especially if you still have to marry the prince of Beining, the general of Yipin, this dowry must be rich." Duan smiled, "" Besides, it's not that our Mo family can't afford this. ”
Mo Li shook his head: "He Murong Chu is married to me, so he doesn't care how much the dowry is." ”
"General Murong won't care, but what about your in-laws? You have also seen Princess Bac Ninh, after all, she is the nominal mother of General Murong and the head of the palace, not to mention that there are other aunts in the palace besides her. Duan said earnestly.
"If you can't hold up this scene, General Murong's face won't look good. Listen to your sister-in-law's words, the dowry is decided, and this is what your brother meant. ”
Duan's mention of Princess Beining made Mo Li's expression stagnate slightly, indeed as she said, no matter how Murong Chu didn't treat the Lu family, she was also his nominal mother and his future mother-in-law.
Also, the Lu family is Gao Zhilan's aunt, and there is such a relationship, don't expect the Lu family to maintain her, if she doesn't make a mistake, she may have to pick a bone in the egg.
Seeing that she was no longer talking, Duan patted the back of her hand and said, "Marriage is a great joy, don't think about it so much." Everyone can see that General Murong really cares for you, and with him, he will definitely not let you be wronged. ”
"There were few people around you before, and now Ruoping is only alone by your side, I wanted to pick a few more maids to come over, but I was afraid that it would not be to your liking. After her mother left, Danyu also fell ill, and now that she is well, let her follow you. ”
"Miss." Danyu behind the Duan clan stepped forward and knelt in front of Mo Li, with a hint of hope in his eyes.
At the age of fifteen or sixteen, Danyu followed Yu's side when she was a child, and Yu died suddenly, and she was sick for a while due to excessive grief. Now that she can be sent to serve the young lady, she can't ask for it.
"Get up, follow me in the future, but don't kneel at every turn." Mo Li raised his hand and smiled at Danyu.
Danyu got up and blessed again: "Thank you, Miss, Danyu will definitely serve Miss with all her heart and soul in the future." ”
After arranging the affairs of Danyu, Duan said again: "Since we have already completed the Geng post, it is time to make a small decision and a dowry." In the past few days, I have to make a set of clothes, hats, shoes and socks, and make them a return gift after the dowry. ”
"Sister-in-law, won't you let me do it myself?" When Mo Li heard that she was going to do needlework, she suddenly felt that her head was big.
"If Xi'er wants to do it herself, of course it's best."
"No, no, I don't want to." Mo Li hurriedly waved her hand, "Mama Li's needlework is the best, so let her do it for you." ”
Duan laughed: "Look at what scares you, isn't it just doing some needlework, I remember that Xi'er's embroidery was still good before, but now I don't see you getting this." ”
Mo Li refilled some tea for the Duan family to hide her embarrassment: "Sister-in-law, I really don't have much interest in these things now. Besides, there's a lot more to do. ”
"Then let Danyu help Mama Li do it together, her needlework is also good." Duan said, "You don't need to go out to buy the material, I have a good Yunjin there, and I will send it to you later." ”
"In addition, I will think about it carefully when I go back, pull out the list, and many things must be prepared."
Mo Li leaned back in the chair and sighed long: "Why is it so troublesome, I knew it was like this, and I didn't want to marry." ”
"Xi'er Jing said stupid things, how can she be troublesome to marry such a person once in her life." Duan said angrily.
"Since the prince came to propose marriage today, the young lady has started to be stupid." Ruoping teased on the side, but was glared at fiercely by Mo Li, covering his mouth and not making a sound.
Duan also smiled and said, "Then I won't be stupid with you here, there are still a lot of things to do." ”
After sending the Duan family away, Mo Li was once again crooked on the soft couch.
After a while, the materials sent by Duan's maid and some fine silk threads.
Mo Li didn't bother to take a closer look, and directly asked Danyu to send it to Mama Li.
According to the normal procedure, after the Geng post is closed, it will take a few days to make a small decision, who knows that only two days later, the Bac Ninh Royal Mansion sent a wild goose and a small Dingli and a letter of appointment.
Mo Li was in Mu Qingyun's medical hall, and the subordinates of Mo Mansion came over to tell her the news, and she was immediately shocked.
