Chapter Ninety-One: No Shortage of Dowry
Zhang's maid came back after a quarter of an hour, holding a piece of rice paper and respectfully handing it to Zhang, who took it and nodded before handing the rice paper back to Cuiyun.
Cuiyun walked over with small steps, bowed his head and offered the rice paper with both hands. Without waiting for Mrs. Liu to reach out to pick it up, Liu had already taken it and looked at it herself.
After glancing at it, she sneered and handed it to Mrs. Liu slowly.
Mrs. Liu took it indifferently, and with just one glance, she handed the list back to Cuiyun, and Shen Yinqiu also saw it, that is, a set of furniture, a set of wooden tables and furniture, most of them are daily necessities, a simple dozen, and I haven't seen anything like pearl gold and naked.
Cuiyun's head couldn't be lowered, because Mrs. Liu's aura of not being angry and arrogant at this time was not something that her little maid could bear.
"This is my dowry? Dare to ask Mrs. Shen, my marriage is the same as that of ordinary people? ”
Zhang knew that this old guy was angry, and she also stood up with a look, she knew that this dowry was really a bit picked, but how could you pay for it if you didn't pick it? Yes, she said apologetically: "The old lady is angry, this is the standard of our Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
"The implication is that I, the old woman, should not care too much?"
How can the Zhang family, she wishes that Liu Fu would interfere more, it is better to return these and contract all the dowries of Shen Yinqiu!
"Where is the old lady, you are the second girl's own grandmother, she grew up beside you since she was a child, and she can manage it."
Cuiyun had already returned to Zhang's side with the list, and Shen Yinqiu was rough and thoughtful, those things ...... One or two boxes can be filled, and when Shen Jinqiu got married, there was a long queue behind the sedan chair, all of which were pickers with dowries.
She thought, according to this list, she can only follow four or five porters pitifully behind the sedan chair, oops, that scene is really concise, while the people on the side of the road laugh at her, the prime minister's mansion is not much better.
This Zhang's ...... Well, very courageous, she admires it a little.
Mrs. Liu didn't even bother to look at Zhang's, and said directly: "You said that this list has not been prepared, and I don't need to draw it up." ”
Zhang's moment flashed with joy, Shen Yinqiu looked at it, shook Mrs. Liu's arm and said, "I want it, grandmother." ”
Liu Shi was anxious, and said in a cold tone: "No, those things, keep them for your master mother as a treasure." ”
Shen Yinqiu saw that her grandmother and the Liu family were not on her side, so she had to bite her grandmother's ear: "Grandmother, I want those dowries, I would rather give them to the beggars outside than to save the Prime Minister's Mansion, you see that the Zhang family is sure that you love me today, and you will not wronged me, and you want to push the dowry on you and my mother, don't make her beautiful!" ”
Mrs. Liu suddenly realized, and then she looked at Liu, although she was old, her eyes were still very sharp, and she touched Shen Yinqiu's head and hummed.
Shen Yinqiu cracked the corners of her mouth and smiled, and the Liu family on the side watched her and Mrs. Liu bite their ears, and wanted to know what to say.
Zhang said: "Let the old lady laugh, in this case, you ...... the dowry of the second girl."
She was responsible before she could say the word, and was interrupted by Mrs. Liu: "How can I be a serious child of the Prime Minister's Mansion, although the dowry is shabby, it can't help but make people laugh, the dowry given by the old man is in the name of the grandfather, and it has nothing to do with the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
Implication, so you should still be out.
Zhang's has been laying the groundwork for so long, and when he heard this, it was like swallowing a fly, and what he said before he co-authored it was all in vain?
As soon as Liu heard this, he glanced at the happy Shen Yinqiu, and knew what her mother and daughter meant, and said at the moment: "This dowry is so shabby that you can't afford not to take it, if you are not afraid of losing the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion, just do it." ”
Shen Yinqiu's face was innocent, "First of all, I am not afraid of losing face, and my mother doesn't need to talk about me, after all, if someone asks me about my dowry, I will explain it to me." ”
Zhang didn't know how to answer in the face of these three people. After a long pause, she forced a smile and said, "That's an incomplete list, so naturally it can't be counted." ”
"Beds, tables, utensils, cages, and bedding should be all available. The material should be medium or above, and pearl jewelry should have everything that should be there. Liu looked at Zhang with a light smile, and Mrs. Liu also looked at her.
What else can the Zhang family do when they are looking at it by this brush? I can only nod my head in response, and the ones mentioned by Liu Shi are indeed basic. I can make do with a thousand taels to buy it, and the things almost look a little more.
"The old lady is right, these are all things that should be wanted." She didn't feel distressed about spending this thousand taels, anyway, she had 200,000 taels.
Shen Yinqiu just didn't want her to have a good time, and when she got the answer, she wanted to take her grandmother to the yard to whisper.
When the three of them turned around and left the hall, Zhang's stiff face immediately turned cold, and Cuiyun beside her helped her and shouted softly, "Madam, are you okay?" ”
Zhang said expressionlessly: "Slut." ”
Cuiyun: "......"
"You go and arrange the dowry of that hoof." Zhang said with disdain on his face.
"Yes, ma'am." Cuiyun knew that she had arranged the second lady's dowry, and her wife was going to personally purchase the eldest lady's return gift.
It was not dark, Shen Yinqiu took her grandmother to the backyard for a walk, Mrs. Liu took her hand and kept telling something, Liu sighed after hearing more: "Mother, I have already told this girl what you said, you can save your worries." ”
"Why are you allowed to say that you are not allowed to say it? If it weren't for you! Having said this, Mrs. Liu was silent again, the fact that the Liu family wanted to marry Shen Linru was not good-looking, and after so many years, this matter is still a topic of conversation in his mouth.
It is only now that Liu knows that listening to her mother's words will not be bad, but she is stubborn, and even if she is wrong, she will not allow herself to regret it.
It's useless to regret it! If you know that you are wrong, you can stand up and open a fork in the road.
Shen Yinqiu looked at the silence of these two people and wittily changed the topic. Mrs. Liu and the Liu family followed Shen Yinqiu's topic and resumed their previous harmony.
At night, Shen Yinqiu pillowed her hands behind her head, crossed Erlang's legs, her posture was inelegant but comfortable, she looked at the top of the bed in a daze, tomorrow is the return day of Shen Jinqiu, which has nothing to do with her. At best, let her dig out how Shen Jinqiu's life has been in the past three days.
She was more worried about the man in black who kidnapped her last night, she couldn't figure out who she had provoked, that person failed last night and lay in the alley without knowing whether he was dead or alive, no one would come tonight, right? No, Yan Daxia should have sent someone to protect her!
But that Yan Daxia is really mysterious, who is he? After contact, it doesn't look like it's a human being.
Could it be that she accidentally saved him from somewhere? Kindness to him? Shen Yinqiu snorted, it's not a story in the book!
Hey, it's so painful to know nothing.
"A thousand lights." Shen Yinqiu called out weakly.
Qianguang on the side listened to her tone, quickly put down the work in his hand and wiped his hands clean, came to the side of the bed and leaned over to probe Shen Yinqiu's forehead, and said after a few breaths: "Miss, where is it uncomfortable?" I don't have a fever. ”
Shen Yinqiu slapped her hand away and pouted: "I don't have a fever, I'm just so bored, you can tell me a story." ”
Chikko: "...... Miss, it's time to rest. ”
Shen Yinqiu saw that she was leaving, and said slowly: "Come back!" ”
Qianguang turned back and stood by the bed, "Miss? ”
"Sit down and talk to me."
Qianguang thought about it, and when she heard her aunt say that a woman who is about to get married will be a little anxious, she has to accompany her well! So she sat down very obediently, "Miss, you say." ”
Shen Yinqiu turned over and lay on the bed, "No, you say." ”
Qianguang was silent, and then said for a moment: "Miss, you better hurry up and sleep, tomorrow the eldest lady can't rest when she returns to the door, and she will be even more busy tomorrow night, if you don't sleep now, you won't have to sleep tomorrow, Miss, are you nervous?" Don't be nervous, Qianyun and I will always be with you. ”
Shen Yinqiu wanted to say that she was not nervous, although she was married. But hearing Chiguang say this, her heart warmed.
Looking around the room, Qianyun sat at the table, embroidering by candlelight, and the always silent Qianyu was sorting out her heavy medical books.
They were all people who accompanied her to get married, Shen Yinqiu waved his hand and said, "You go and tidy up your things, I'll think about it for a while." ”
Qianguang sighed, returned to Fang Cai's position and continued to clean up, and when she looked back, her master was already lying on the bed, leisurely flipping through the notebook.
She smiled, too, her master's heart was wide, nervous or something, rare.
Shen Yinqiu didn't forget to remind: "Remember to hide my treasured book, don't let people find it, if you do...... Let's just say it's a gift for someone else. ”
Qianyun raised his head and was speechless: "Master, who sent someone to send this." If someone knows about it, you can't throw it out. ”
"Don't mind, just give it to Miss Liu Ziqi."
Qianguang silently lit candles for Miss Liu's mansion.
This night, in order to prevent an accident like last night, she let Qianguang Qianyun Qianyu sleep on the small couch next to her bed tonight.
As a result, the night was peaceful.
Shen Yinqiu touched the signal flare she hid, and thought that maybe Yan Daxia helped her deal with the hidden dangers, so let's find a signal flare on a dark and windy night another day to thank him in person.
On the day Shen Jinqiu returned to the door, it was very lively. The whole family went to pick her up at the door, and Shen Yinqiu watched her take Lu Hujun's arm and enter the door with a happy face.
And his brother-in-law's expression was a little softer than before, Shen Yinqiu stood behind Zhang's side, thinking about the aura emanating from Shen Jinqiu's body, which was different from the previous feeling, is this a newlywed young woman? The eyes are gentle like water, flying all over the pink cheeks, and they are enchanting.
Shen Linru saw that they were so affectionate, and her face was also full of smiles, and she hurriedly welcomed her son-in-law into the door.
Shen Yinqiu deliberately walked to the end, and layers of figures blocked Shen Jinqiu's figure, but her cheap brother-in-law was tall and particularly conspicuous in the crowd.
She muttered a few words, looking left and right for her aunt's figure, but she didn't find it, it seemed that she was not there, and she felt bored for a while.
Why don't she slip away too?
