What the Ning family gave is not much different from the Yan'an Hou Mansion, she is old, those money and wealth are not brought to life and death, what is the use of keeping them, it is also fate to have a granddaughter who likes it, and the Ning family is willing to add makeup to Ming Qiao.

Yan Zhen in the palace also sent a lot of things, including jewelry, calligraphy and painting, and pulled several carts, probably taking advantage of Yan Mingqiao's makeup, and counted all the things in the palace treasury.

Naturally, the things in the palace can't be new, but compared to the ones outside, they are much more exquisite. Even if it is ordinary, it has the words made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs on it, and it is also extremely valuable.

Yan Mingqiao didn't think that there were so many, and wanted not to send some back to her aunt, but the Ning and Shen families didn't let it.

Shen sighed in his heart, "Your aunt has no children, and when you get married in the future, you will often visit the palace, don't let her down." ”

Yan Mingqiao nodded, don't rush these things, Aunt Guangchong was so good to her before, she should also be filial to her aunt.

Yan Mingqiao looked at the calligraphy and paintings, there are famous calligraphy and paintings, books and books, and a lot of recipes for self-cultivation, her aunt is really good to her, and she wants to see her aunt every month after she gets married.

And what Shen gave is a dowry, not a makeup, and parents want their children to live well. She is Ming Qiao's mother, her son has the property of the Hou Mansion, and she wants to keep part of her dowry for the elderly, and plans to divide the rest to her two daughters.

The pension is also just in case, but Mingxuan is filial piety, and the eldest daughter-in-law is not bad, it is estimated that it will not be his turn to take the silver to support the elderly. If they don't need it, the remaining small part will be given to the two sons.

It is not easy to raise one's own children to adulthood, and their grandchildren should be worried about their parents.

This is different from splitting the family, for the Shen family, the palms and backs of the hands are all meat, and it is estimated that the two sons will be divided equally.

It is not safe for a daughter to marry into someone else's family, so she gives more.

Shen is forty-one years old this year, and he has been married for more than 20 years, and the things he appreciates in the palace, the money he slowly manages with his dowry is not small, and there are many jewelry, medicinal materials, and unpolished gems and jade...... There are also house shops.

Such a dowry made Yan Mingqiao's property increase several times at once.

There are more than when Yan Mingyu got married, and the first few sisters who came out of the house can't be compared.

At the end of the month, Yan Mingyu also came back, and the dowry was one percent more, so much dowry, even if it was spent every day, it would be easy to spend it.

Yan Mingqiao actually felt that the silver she earned was enough, as long as she didn't do messy things, it was enough to spend a lifetime, and she gave her so much, where could she use it up.

And the sister-in-law and the sister-in-law also gave the Zhuangzi shop, these days, the Zhuangzi title deed alone is eighteen, the shop has thirteen land deeds, the house has four, and the other things are packed in mahogany boxes, and the lid is tied with a red rope, which is sturdy.

There are mahogany boxes piled up inside and outside the Buck Anxuan, which are counted by Lin Xiang, and they are carried into the warehouse to save the rain after remembering them. There are maids coming in and out of the yard, and there is a bit of eagerness in the laughter.

Under the scorching sun in May, Yan Mingqiao really felt that she was about to get married, and it was less than three months.

The weather is very hot in May, and it is even more after the Dragon Boat Festival, but fortunately, there is no shortage of ice in Yan'an Hou's Mansion, and it is still cool in the house.

But Ning felt uncomfortable using ice, so Yan Mingqiao followed Ning to a small county town to escape the summer, and stayed for more than a month before coming back.

When I came back, it was already mid-July.

At this time, Sheng Jing is still cooler in the morning and evening, but the day is still very hot, Yan Mingqiao goes out for a walk with Gu Yan at night, and sometimes goes out with Gu Mian.

Although Gu Mian is married later than her, she will get married at the beginning of spring next year, and the day of marriage is not much later.

She has grown a lot taller than last year, and now she is about the same height as Yan Mingqiao, and now that the two of them are together, they will probably never play with the house again.

That's what I liked when I was a kid, and it's not always appropriate to play when I'm a teenager.

He would only take the maid out for a walk, looking after the weeping willows and sparkling water beside the moat.

In fact, knowing that Ming Qiao was going to marry, Gu Mian was still very happy in her heart. It's just that the thought that she may be married in a few months and leave the Gu family fades that joy.

It seems that when I grow up, I understand a lot, and I know that getting married is not just about going to other people's houses for dinner, especially for women, and marrying also means separation.

Gu Mian said: "Fortunately, let's be our sister-in-law, but if you get married, what will I call you in the future?" ”

Calling sister-in-law or buckwheat?

Yan Mingqiao really didn't think about it, should she call her name like this, or call her sister-in-law......

"We've known each other for so many years, so naturally we still call our names, and we are more comfortable, is it possible that I won't call Mianmian and call my sister in the future?"

Gu Mian thought for a while and Ming Qiao called her sister, "Then forget it, you will still call me Mian Mian in the future, and I will also call you Ming Qiao." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, Yan Mingqiao sighed after laughing, "I didn't expect it to be so soon, it seems that it was snowing at the beginning of the year yesterday, and now it is almost autumn, and I am about to get married." ”

What happened before, in my mind, moved into the main courtyard to go to the school, grew up next to my mother, and then lived in my own yard. The closest sister is the second sister, the best friend is Gu Mian, the favorite person is the mother, and the future husband is Gu Yan.

There are grandmothers, aunts, and brothers...... Lacking nothing, she felt that this life was very smooth.

She was content.

Chapter 140: On the eve of marriage

But even so, in the past few days, Yan Mingqiao is still nervous.

Watching the sun set, I panicked, I couldn't sleep well, I woke up early every day, and I didn't know what I was worried about.

The wedding dress has been embroidered, it is embroidered by the embroiderer in the house, and she has moved a few stitches, the color of bright red, and the flowers on it are full of flowers. Spread out the wedding dress, and there is a phoenix with wings spread behind it.

The red and green silk threads on the top are overlapped, and there are several pieces inside and out, including the belly pocket.

The hijab is embroidered by Yan Mingqiao himself, the center of the red silk cloth is a blooming flower pattern, the square silk cloth, the four corners are also flower patterns, and the four threads of various colors are embroidered into complex patterns, which are extremely beautiful on the red silk cloth.

And the four corners are red tassels strung with pearls, so that even if there is wind on the day of marriage, the hijab will not be easily blown away by the wind when you are outside.

The phoenix crown was called by the Shen family, and it was done for more than half a year, as long as you pull up your hair and comb it into a bun, you can just put the phoenix crown on.

The phoenix crown alone looks like a phoenix spreading its wings, and in the middle is a large pearl, shiny and shiny, with some normal-sized pearls on both sides, and the dotted emerald and gilt make these into a crown, and there are many gems embedded on it, which looks very eye-catching.

You don't even need to wear a hairpin, and you have long pearl tassels hanging down from your sideburns. Yan Mingqiao thinks that wearing this is gorgeous enough, and there is definitely no need to wear a hairpin.

The number of pearls on this phoenix crown is too many to count, and there are red, red, green and green gemstones, which are extremely gorgeous.

Yan Mingqiao really likes it, and she has also tried the wedding dress and phoenix crown, and it looks extremely good, and when she looks at it in the mirror after wearing it, the whole person seems to have an extra layer of pink light.

The fairies in the sky may have wombed their clothes with clouds, and this may be what they look like.

However, although this dress looks good to wear, but this wedding dress is connected with a phoenix crown, which is too heavy, and the silk is light and fluttering, but the embroidery thread is added with various gems and pearls, as well as the big phoenix crown, which adds up to twenty or thirty pounds.

Just wearing this clothes, let alone walking, just sit well, and you are tired after a long time.

Shen also said that let her get used to it in advance, saving her from getting tired and flustered when the wedding dress was too thick and heavy on the day of marriage.

But Yan Mingqiao thinks that if she gets used to it in advance, it's good if she can get used to it, but if she doesn't get used to it, wouldn't she have to wear it for a day on the day she got married, and she still has to wear it now, and she still wears it for nothing.

It's better to wear it directly when the time comes, the second sister and they are all here, what can't she do.

Even if it sinks, gritted its teeth and survived.

However, like Xu Jingshu and Yan Mingyu got married, they were all in the summer, and the wedding clothes were thin, while Zhang Xinyuan got married in the winter moon, and it was warm to wear a little thicker, but she would not be as tired as Yan Mingqiao.

At the end of July, Shen also asked Yan Mingyu to come over and talk to her daughter about what she should say, she was too old to be a mother, she was afraid that Mingqiao would be embarrassed, and she was afraid that her daughter would not understand it.

Yan Mingyu is not embarrassed, and she has lived two lives, and she knows a lot.

The sisters talked in the house for half an hour, during which they let the maids go out, and no one even guarded the door of the house, and from a distance, there was no movement, and they could not hear what was being said inside.

It wasn't until Yan Mingqiao called someone to come in that the maid went into the house to serve tea and pour water.

Qingyu inadvertently glanced at Yan Mingqiao, only to see that her face was a little red, the second girl looked as usual, and as soon as the sisters looked at each other, the fifth girl couldn't help laughing, still the kind of shy and embarrassed smile.

It's embarrassing for them.

After pouring the tea, a few maids retreated.

Yan Mingqiao took a sip of warm tea and pressed it, thinking about what the second sister told her just now, she felt embarrassed.

What will be comfortable, don't put up with it if it's uncomfortable, that's the husband, the intimate person, there is nothing to be embarrassed to say. And this kind of thing between husband and wife can also make the relationship deeper.

Yan Mingyu felt nothing to be embarrassed about, and talked to her sister for the sake of the future.

Yan Mingqiao patted her face, she really didn't know before, but as soon as the second sister said that she understood, she didn't understand everything, she just didn't seem to understand, maybe she really understood it until she got married.

Yan Mingyu also brought some small notebooks, and when she looked at them, she might be able to understand better, and the rest of the things were nothing. The night before her sister's wedding, she came over to accompany her and slept with her for one night, which also saved her nervousness about getting married.

Yan Mingyu remembered that when she got married, she was happy, thinking about living in a big mansion in Beihou Mansion, and a bunch of people were serving, and she didn't have too much reluctance.

My sister has been at home for a long time, and it is estimated that she will be very reluctant.

It was Xiyi who pressed the bed for Yan Mingqiao, and it was his nephew who pressed the bed on Gu Yan's side, who was a few years older than Xiyi, and he would be sent over the day before he got married.

Several brothers and sisters have been married, Yan Mingqiao also gave Yan Mingxuan a little lady who pressed the bed, she is also familiar with this, but what she doesn't know is that three days before the Yue Dynasty got married, the newcomers could not meet.

Yan Mingqiao didn't know what it was, but she couldn't tell her mother why she asked, she only said that she had always said this, and it wasn't just three days, but three days, and then it was day and night, where do you care about these three days.

Yan Mingqiao felt reasonable, it was only three days, and they would get along day and night in the future.

However, Gu Yan originally planned to come over to take a look in the next few days, saving Ming Qiao from feeling uncomfortable, he followed and talked, even if it was next to him, he could share a thing or two.

Who knew that he couldn't meet three days before he got married, the first day of August, the second day of the first month, and the last day of July, so Gu Yan came to see Yan Mingqiao on the penultimate day of July.

He went directly to Yan'anhou's mansion, and the two talked for a while in the small pavilion in the garden.

He brought a lot of things, dried fruits wrapped in handkerchiefs, medicinal tea brewed, and Lu Ban locks that passed the time when he was idle, all of which were prepared for Yan Mingqiao and used on the day he got married.

"Dried fruits can be eaten hungry, they are all sweet and sour, and you won't get tired of eating them."

"Medicinal tea is a relief from the heat, although the weather is cool these days, but after staying in the sedan chair for so long, you still cover your head and drink this in advance, saving you from being stuffy and uncomfortable." Gu Yan took a deep breath, "If you are not interesting in the sedan chair, you can play with these Luban locks, you don't have to sit upright, no one will say yours." If the hijab is too hot, take it off, so that you can't heat it up. ”

Gu Yan didn't take a sedan chair when he went out, he either took a carriage or rode a horse by himself, he still remembered how hot it was in the sedan chair when he went to press the bed.

Yan Mingqiao looked at these things and was moved in her heart, "Why do you still bring these, the maid can prepare them." ”

Gu Yan said: "The preparation is not the same, this Luban lock is fun, you can use it to relieve boredom." ”

There are only a few days left, and Gu Yan feels that the days are passing slowly.

The new house on the Gu family's side has been cleaned up, and Gu Yan's original yard is still lived, and the Chen family said that it won't be long before Mianmian gets married, so there is no new yard, only a renovate and arrangement.

The bed and all kinds of furniture are newly replaced, even the cage of the silver floc has been replaced, and the Taifu Mansion has no family background, but in the future, the family will be divided, and the child will share a little more property if he supports the elderly.

Gu Yan's sister-in-law Yun Shi looked at this battle, and she was really uncomfortable, but the daughters of the family were all pampered, as long as her mother-in-law was not too partial, she could get by here.

Marriage is a happy event, everyone is looking forward to going smoothly, and so is the Yun family.

The Chen family and the Yun family would also tell Gu Yan what to do and what to do.

Gu Yan has only seen each other once, that is, with Yan Mingqiao, so he learned many things from his eldest brother's father, and there will be things that he doesn't do well.

They are about to get married, and there is still a long way to go, and Gu Yan hopes to go on forever.

"Ming Qiao, after I got married, including now and before, if there is anything that is not good enough, you must be outspoken, and I will change it." Gu Yan took a deep breath, "If you have any grievances, just tell me, I won't let you be wronged." ”

"I will treat you as you go from beginning to end." When Gu Yan said this, he kept looking at Yan Mingqiao's eyes, he thought about it, and added two more sentences, "You can do whatever you want, just as comfortable as being by your mother's side." You keep these words in your heart, and a gentleman will do what he says. ”

Yan Mingqiao looked at the Lu Ban lock and nodded his head, "Okay, I'll tell you anything, and so are you, if I don't do anything well, I have to tell me." ”
