Chapter 6: Marriage as a Covenant (3)

The birthday banquet is over, and the guests have resigned. The two marriage contracts have made Duanmu Mansion a new topic after tea and dinner, especially the prince of Nanxiang Yu wants to marry a concubine as his wife, and there are many versions of the twists and turns, some people say that in fact, the prince of the Yu family was rejected by the concubine of the Duanmu family and married the concubine angrily, and some people say that the concubine of the Duanmu family has learned the witchcraft of confusing men since childhood, in short, no one wants to know who is Duanmu Qingrang, just looking for a suitable reason for a wealthy concubine to marry a concubine.

Duanmu Qingrang had heard a little about this, but he didn't know how to refute it, who would believe that this was all an accident caused by a fool to keep his promise. Compared with the gossip of outsiders, what she has more headache is the subtle changes in Duanmu Mansion. At least for a few days, I asked him to go to the eldest lady to ask for peace, but the lady said that she was unwell and did not show up.

But within ten days, the palace came to a queen mother's decree, Duanmu Lady Yun sent someone to ask Qing Rang to go over for the first time since the birthday banquet, on the way to meet Hua Shu, she saw that Qing Rang's eyes were slightly sympathetic, and the companion Yu Shan seemed to inadvertently pointed to the bird on the tree and said: "Don't think that flying high is a phoenix, born lowly in this life is a lowly life!" ”

Hua Shu glared at Yushan, feeling that she had gone too far, and when she saw it again, she didn't seem to understand, and walked away. Without the embarrassed look she had foreseen, the shallow sympathy in her heart disappeared. Yu Shan was still muttering on the side, "I'm not wrong, if Gongzi Yu is really willing to marry her, why did he leave and go home overnight on the night of the birthday banquet, it's not that he doesn't want to see her more!" ”

Qing Rang knelt on the ground, Yun Shi never called her to get up, for fear that she would be distracted by seeing her think of something, and knowing that the personal maid next to her reminded her, Yun asked Qing Rang to get up and sit down.

"I just remembered your mother, although you are only three points similar to her, but this temperament is very similar." The Yun family rarely mentions Qingrang's biological mother, and has never been harsh or close to Qing, and the same is true for her biological mother, Qingrang listens and never answers at will.

"Soon after you were born, the lord proposed to pass you to my house, and the title was with me, and the support was still by your mother, and at that time your mother also knelt as you did just now, not afraid or arrogant, and told me and the lord that what kind of life you were born to take is what kind of road you take. At that time, the old man had to follow her, but if she lived to this day, would she regret such a decision? ”

"My mother has taught me since I was a child that I need to know my identity and size, not to be delusional, and not to mourn myself."

Although the Yun family didn't want to admit it, as the old man said, the daughter taught by Qinglian was more like a lady, and now it is a blessing for the Duanmu family to let Qing let him enter the Nanxiang Yu family. She asked people to take the decree and hand it over to Qing Rang, "The people in the palace said that Gonggong Gao went back to talk to the Queen Mother about that night, and the Queen Mother was happy to marry the two families, but because of your background, it is not appropriate to be the main room, so I personally ordered you to be the side room and be a quiet aunt." ”

Yellow cloth and black letters, the words are clearly written, and there is no accident in Qingrang, but I think this is reasonable.

"The Queen Mother is thoughtful, and Qing Rang also feels that it is already a great blessing to be able to marry into the Yu family, and she has never expected to be in the main room."

"Although there are no three media and six hires, I will definitely prepare a rich dowry for you, and you will not be despised if you go to the Yu family. You have to remember that although she was born as a concubine, the daughter of the Duanmu family was originally much more noble than those small families outside. ”

A small servant outside the door came to report that the Nanxiang Yu family had sent someone to send a dowry, and then whispered a reminder that the carriage surrounded half of the courtyard wall. Duanmu's house was built by the water, and after two renovations, it was unusually long, and if it was as long as half of the courtyard wall, it could at least line up a long street.

Qing Rang followed the Yun family to the front hall quickly, and the Yun family frowned all the way, worried that the Yu family had not yet received the palace decree, and she didn't know whether to accept such a heavy dowry, after all, taking concubines in the customs of Amaterasu Province, and it was common to be exempt from the dowry. What's more, if these dowries are accepted, what about the dowry.

When the Yun clan Qing rang to the front hall, Master Duanmu was already sitting in the hall, and Qing asked the Fu Yun clan to sit on one side, standing behind his wife. The escort to the bridal ceremony was Feng Sign, the head of the Yu family, who was over thirty years old and gentle and polite. After meeting Master Duanmu, he handed over the list of dowries, densely packed and thick, and muttered in his heart, this Nanxiang Yu family is really well-off, but they don't know how to live, but they just take concubines.

"My lord asked me to tell Master Duanmu that my young master is stubborn, and it is a blessing for the Yu family that the Duanmu family is willing to marry their daughter, but the Queen Mother Yi will accept her as a concubine, and our lord has a lot of uneasiness in his heart, so he offers a dowry to show his sincerity."

Yun opened his mouth first, "We thank Master Yu for his kindness, but this dowry is also ......."

"Go back and give back to your lord for me, we accepted the dowry, my daughter has been pampered by me since she was a child, if the number of courtesies is incomplete, you will be tired and burdened." Master Duanmu didn't feel that this dowry was a little heavier, Feng Qian nodded frequently to indicate that he would return the original words, and then sent a red post, "My lord asked someone to count the day, and the eighth day of the first month of next month is an auspicious day, I don't know what Master Duanmu thinks?" ”

Master Duanmu frowned, there was only twenty days to spare, and it was really a little tight.

"Now that the days are settled, let's go on the eighth day of the next month." Yun opened his mouth, and he wanted to start preparing for Hua Shu's wedding in the future, but it was also a good thing that Qingrang could be done as soon as possible.

Feng Qian took a wooden box from the villain behind him, "This thing was specially prepared by the young marshal of my family for Miss Duanmuer." ”

The maid at the bottom took it and handed it to Qing Rang, and Qing Rang spoke, "Thank you for me." ”

Feng Qian dared to glance at Qingrang at this time, feeling gentle and polite, but the young marshal was slightly insufficient. He didn't think that he had seen countless people in his life, and he didn't even see the waves that this slightly inadequate woman would set off in the future when he first met.
