Now that the wedding date has been set, the whole family has to start preparing the dowry for Lishu, and the public middle school is still 5,000 taels, but Mrs. Liu will make up 1,000 taels, Mrs. Liu will make up 1,000 taels, and Xiao Fu will privately make up 5,000 taels.

There are also wedding beds that were made by skilled craftsmen when Lishu was very young, and every time she went, she was like a little hamster, saving dowry for her daughter.

Xiao Fu opened a warehouse in front, Li Shu saw her dowry for the first time, she didn't even see the dowry list in her previous life, but Aunt Ding told her that Xiao Fu's dowry was all married to her, she thought that Aunt Ding was high-spirited.

"These beds are all with you to marry, see it clearly, don't even recognize your dowry." Xiao Fu quipped.

Lishu took a look, and the six beds placed in it were the black lacquer Wanzi continuous head three Luohan bed, the black lacquer mica stone shelf bed, the yellow pear and begonia flower enclosure step bed, the pile of lacquer luodian painted gold bed, the ebony gilt treasure elephant twig bed, and the red sandalwood four-pillar lantern brocade carved dragon pattern shelf bed.

Each bed is a testament to the craftsmanship and effort.

The little Fu was not satisfied: "I heard that Lizhen has red sandalwood in the whole house, and my mother is useless, so I can only find a piece of red sandalwood." ”

Lishu shook her head: "Mother, you have done your best for your daughter." "My mother didn't know that in her previous life, she married two beds, and this was all because she married the Zheng family, this is not a matter of money, it is because of not having to worry about it.

If a bed is a shelf bed or a stepping bed, it starts at sixty taels, but it takes a lot of effort to find a good craftsman to build and find good materials, and probably only the mother is willing to work so hard for her.

Xiao Fu said: "In short, a thicker dowry is definitely better than a less." Come, take a look at the house here, if you don't like it, we'll change it. ”

Lishu took a cursory look, there are gold-inlaid jade jujube wood dressing boxes, Huanghuali with three horizontal cabinets, four pairs of camphor wood boxes (containing leather, cotton, clips, single, yarn and other seasonal clothes), several pairs of Nanmu boxes, a large dressing mirror and so on.

When I arrived at another warehouse, I saw two ruyi, agarwood inlaid jade Ruyi one handle, Xiuyu Ruyi one handle, and then there was a pot of green jade and bamboo bonsai, a pot of silver gilded hexagonal potted stone plum blossom bonsai, a pot of Qishou Changchun white stone bonsai, all kinds of objects are dazzling, dizzying.

She couldn't even look at it in the end, because she even prepared the bucket of her descendants.

"Mother, is there so much dowry?" Lishu, like other sisters, only two taels of silver a month on weekdays, what to buy, you have to save, day and night, she is a little rich.

Xiao Fu smiled: "Yes, you are not a lot, but it is just the right time." Compared with Lizhen, it's far behind, speaking of which, I heard that Lizhen's bed was married to seventeen, of course, her mother is not necessarily a good thing. ”

Lishu knew that the eldest aunt Xu's dowry was a lot, but she didn't expect the eldest aunt to be ready to accompany Lizhen, especially since the Xu family did not have a son of her own, and she would have to rely on her concubine to support the portal in the future.

Even if the Fu family wanted to give all the dowry to Lijia at the beginning, it was because the Fu family had already been cultivated, and the family tree did not have her name, so she no longer needed the children of the Liu family to support her. And Aunt Su's private room, Xiao Fu's family divided all her three children equally in advance, and Liwan had nothing to say.

And the dowry gift sent by the Zeng family was worthless and all of it was given to Liwan to accompany her back, which can be regarded as worthy of her.

"Mother,

What about Lirou? Lishu suddenly remembered that in her previous life, Lizhen knew that her marriage was not harmonious,

also sarcastically said that Lirou is an old lady, and there are mountains of gold and silver there.

Xiao Fu said with a smile: "She, but five thousand taels in the public school, and the old lady estimated that one thousand taels is too much." As for the dowry sent by the Wu family. I gave her a lot of money. ”

Lishu said: "I see that the old lady takes good care of her, and she is more favored than me in the old lady." ”

"What about being pampered? Your grandmother has so many children and grandchildren, it is not good to give more to anyone and less to whom. It's already good to be able to take care of her on weekdays. She could see that Lirou was very good at pleasing people, and even when she was with Lishu at her grandmother's place, she secretly wanted to surpass her daughter.

This is the same as Aunt Ding, it seems to be light and light, but in fact, it is secretly like a poisonous snake.

Why did Aunt Su send a cloth with acne scabies back then, but Aunt Ding found out that there was a problem, Xiao Fu didn't know that there was no cat in it.

But obviously Aunt Ding is not Aunt Su, she is very patient, very tolerant, and can't catch any handles.

She hibernated again and waited for an opportunity, but unfortunately she would not have this opportunity, and never would have this opportunity.

It's as if she's been smothering her for entering the house early, so that she misses the identity of the main room, and it seems that without herself, she can dominate in the second room, which is really whimsical.

If she didn't have herself, the second room would be very lively, and she Ding Xufang wouldn't be ranked at all.

Lishu's dowry is a total of one hundred and twenty lifts, which is not overly extravagant, but it is also a very large dowry. No one felt that it was inappropriate, and Mrs. Xu also sneered: "Marrying the Zheng family, but being so poor, if it were me, I would be able to carry one hundred and eighty lifts." ”

laughed a few times, she felt that it was not interesting, because if she could give a dowry, her daughter would not be able to marry the Zheng family.

Mrs. Liu also felt that this dowry was very considerable, after all, those princes who married princesses, even princesses with extremely outstanding family backgrounds, were only one hundred and twenty.

"That's good, the Zheng family is extremely solemn, and in the way of marrying a clan woman, we can't lose our reputation."

Xiao Fu said with a smile: "The daughter-in-law also said the same, because the Zheng family gave more dowry, the original preparation was eighty-eight lifts, and in the end the second girl was sixty-four." This is because the dowry is not good for the sisters to quarrel at that time, but our master said that the Zheng family is now the official of the military department, and people did not dislike him when they married us back then, and there was a makeup sent by my mother's family, so let me make up more. ”

"Hey, what's this, isn't the big girl also one hundred and twenty when she gets married? We don't have any girls in our family, who are coming out of the house. At the beginning, I inquired about the eldest grandmother of the Zeng family, and it was not more than sixty-four to lift the door. Mrs. Liu didn't care.

Xiao Fu crossed the bright road, and his heart was settled.

Mrs. Liu likes Xiao Fu's point, she may not be really fair, but she has to make an appearance. The Xu family is getting more and more stupid, with Lizhen's temperament, can she feed back to the family? I'm afraid it's hard.

Now Mrs. Xu not only has her dowry plus all the money she has fished from the Liu family over the years, but she has made her hands and feet very clean.

After Aunt Ding knew everything, she said to Lirou again: "You are a concubine, but you are out of a concubine, which family is doing such an eccentric thing, in the end, she is not."

Daintily. What else did you say that Grandma Zeng is sixty-four, so your second sister is also sixty-four to marry. I'm afraid that when the time comes, she will also take the opportunity to withhold your dowry. ()”

≈ldo;? ()_[()]?『 [ ] ♂ to see the latest chapter ♂ in its entirety."

Lirou knew that her aunt didn't have much savings, and she also took out a lot of the things for the marriage when her uncle was uncomfortable.

It's not like Aunt Su because of her meritorious work in giving birth to a child, and Aunt Su's younger brother sent a lot of money, and she helped the Fu housekeeper to make money. And the aunt is upright, and if she doesn't do anything from it, she won't make any extra money.

Therefore, her dowry is definitely not as much as that of the third sister, the third sister has Xiao Fu's fundraising, and Xiao Fu's housekeeper naturally has to supplement her daughter for so many years. But the public is a fixed 5,000 taels, and the amount in private does not depend on the degree of favor of each other.

Aunt Ding touched her daughter's hair: "Fortunately, they will not be greedy for the dowry gift given by the Wu family, and if there is more, your grandmother will definitely add some to you." Over the years, your grandmother has given you a lot of good things in private. ”

There are two boxes in Lirou's room, which have been given to her by her grandmother since Lishu was released with the old lady.

At that time, my grandmother made it clear to her: "My granddaughters must be treated equally, and I will add 1,000 taels to each person when they get married, and I can't give you more." ”

"Yes, there's a box full of fine jewelry, and another box of beads." Lirou heard that when the old lady got married, her brother was the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and he deliberately bought a lot of beads.

Aunt Ding smiled: "That's good, that's good, since the old lady gave it to you quietly, you have to take it." After all, the current Wu family is much better than Yu Maozhong's dog thing, yes, you don't know yet, I heard from my wife that Yu Maozhong took the test for others, and he was found again, and this time he was really going to be exiled. ”

Lirou had also heard the rumors, and she was curious: "Is there really anyone who can copy someone else's handwriting?" ”

"The world is so big, there are no surprises. Your father gave him a lecture at that time, and made people look at him and ordered him to quit gambling. He is also a talent, he took the test in Shuntianfu and passed three levels in a row, just because your father sent someone to watch him in the gambling house, he is not good at gambling anymore. I never thought that he would take the test for others again, and it is said that his imitation handwriting would not even suspect that it was written by someone else. Aunt Ding thought to herself that it was good that her daughter did not marry such a person, Yu Maozhong was indeed very smart and good at disguise, and she was crying at that time as if she wanted to change it, and even she almost believed it.

But in the end, he is too young, and it is easy to be caught by others when doing things.

If you guessed correctly, it should be the official who the master personally asked him to report.

The lord has always been jealous and hateful.

Only here is Xiao Fu's exception, he is obviously so affectionate and righteous but can forget the original match in a year, just after Fu came back, the old man snubbed Xiao Fu, she was very pleased, the old man is still the old man! Therefore, she would rather not be favored and not compete for favor, but she is also willing to be happy.

But five years later, Xiao Fu's resurrection, she harmed the eldest young master and the master and did not pursue it, she blindly competed for favor and won people, and the master did not pursue it.

That was the first time she felt her faith collapse and felt that it was time for her to make a move.

I didn't expect Xiao Fu to be easy to mess with, if it weren't for the difference between wives and concubines, she was a wife, she was a concubine, and she would have already had a way.

Qingfeng Mingyue has already married, and the people who are changing now are all sent by the Xiao Fu family, so she is not reckless.

What's more, she hasn't had a master here for too long, and if she doesn't have grace, her subordinates will too

() Bullying you. It would be good if someone really disrespected her, but Xiao Fu's work is not leaky, and she has never been less here.

……

Because next year is the year of the big competition, there are many examinees in Beijing, and there are also a lot of examinees in Huguang. A few years ago, because of the affairs of Xian Yuanfu, even the Huguang Hall was much deserted, and now Liu Chengxu is among the high-ranking officials and civil officials in Beijing.

Many people came to visit, and Liu Chengxu also received them one by one, but he really couldn't receive them, so he asked the housekeeper or the two sons to receive them together, and he definitely couldn't wait for them.

In addition, Liu Chengxu also invited them to live and study at home, and these three are all outstanding among scholars.

Xiao Fu specially instructed Lishu and Lirou: "This guest room is now occupied by the people of Shangjing, you should avoid it." If you are hit, others should say that there are no rules in our family. ”

"Yes."

Lishu still pays attention to this, especially as she gets older, she wears a hat whenever she goes out, and she can't be seen easily.

Lirou also immediately agreed.

The three of them were talking about the wine in a few days, but someone outside came over and said, "Second wife, are the people around Prince Cheng coming?" ”

Xiao Fu pretended to be puzzled: "What is Prince Cheng going to do?" ”

She knew that her daughter had saved Prince Cheng's son, but the two had nothing to do with each other. But Prince Cheng's Mansion will always want to reciprocate.

Lirou was moved in her heart, she had a good relationship with Prince Cheng, and it was very likely that she came to visit her, after all, every time she was in that nunnery, Princess Cheng gave her a lot of pastries and was very kind to her.

Unexpectedly, Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng came to send makeup, Lirou thought she had heard it wrong, but she saw the steward of the palace and said: "Our princess and Miss Liu San were very close to each other before, and specially sent a few boxes of things to add makeup." ”

Xiao Fu hurriedly excused himself: "It's so valuable, how can we accept it." ”

Lirou glanced at Lishu, it was actually for Lishu.

She didn't seem surprised to see Lishu? Why wasn't she surprised, was there something in it that she didn't know?

Lishu only listened to the palace steward: "It's nothing, you know, why should you be polite." Back then, our prince and Lord Liu also worked together, and gifts between relatives were not a precious thing. ”

In this way, Xiao Fu accepted it.

Xiao Fu didn't look at it at the moment, and only after Lirou left, the mother and daughter opened the box.

"Mother, if it's too valuable, let's go back." Lishu said.

Xiao Fu nodded, the mother and daughter were really afraid that they would be too precious, so they were fortunate to open a few boxes, two boxes of high-quality colored satin, another box of books, and then a piano.

The guqin is not a big deal, the guqin that Lishu is using now is the former dynasty guqin given by Mrs. Liu, which is already very famous, and this one is even more jaw-dropping.

"It's the Nine Heavens Ring." Lishu looked at Xiao Fu and said.

Xiao Fu didn't understand: "How can a piano be called Huanpei?" It's weird. ”

Lishu smiled: "Mother, you don't know, this Nine Heavens is a fairyland in myths and legends, above the Nine Heavens, it has the meaning of supremacy. Jiuxiao Huanpei four characters for the small seal, engraved on the top of the guqin dragon pond, the inscription on the belly of the piano has a line that reads 'Kaiyuan three years chop', this is made by Lei Wei, and Lei Wei is the most famous luthier in the world when Xuanzong. ”

Xiao Fu saw that the material of this piano surface was paulownia wood,

The bottom of the piano is azusa,

Antler gray tire, kudzu cloth as the bottom, the material is excellent, mussel emblem, mahogany, white jade foot, the guard is red sandalwood, it is extremely precious at a glance.

She saw that her daughter was also very happy, and couldn't help but say, "Why don't you stay?" ”

"No, those colored satin and books are left, and the guqin will be sent back, which is too precious." Lishu refused without hesitation.

The guqin was not sent back in the end, because Prince and Princess Cheng came to the house in person the next day to talk to Xiao Fu, and it seemed that she had expected that the Liu family wanted to go back.

Liu Chengxu let Xiao Fu accept it.

Prince Cheng was originally not good at words, but when she saw Xiao Fu accept it, she was also relieved.

When I went back, I saw that Xiao Yun had just come back from the palace, looking energetic, this was her son, and he was not like her at all. Even if he likes someone in his heart, he will let it go, because the big things are the most important thing in his heart.

"Mother, my son greets you."

"Well, I've already done what you told me."

"Really? That's good. Yes, when I entered the palace today, the emperor proposed marriage for me. ”

"Do you agree?"

"Mother, if you can't marry the person you love the most, then what does it matter who you marry? As long as the status is high enough, it will help his son. ”

Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng were silent.

This Chinese New Year's Eve is the last Chinese New Year's Eve that Lishu will spend at home, so she is very reluctant and hopes that her marriage will go well, as the mother said, as long as she is good, then the mother is comforted.

Hearing that Yu Maozhong had been exiled for the exam, she was relieved.

She originally thought that Mao Zhong would be in a high position in the future, and there would be more criminals, maybe it would be possible to be hanged, but she thought that those who were killed by Yu Maozhong were so innocent?

Of course, it is no wonder that Liu Chengxu did not suspect that Yu Maozhong had a problem copying her letter in his previous life, because Yu Maozhong imitated other people's handwriting, and he could hardly even distinguish himself. But with just one letter, Dad didn't go to him at all?

I have to say, this is also quite disappointing.

But she also knows that there is a truth, men seem to like the children of the women they love more, and Liu Chengxu has many children, her mother died early in her previous life, and she is in the back house, and she often can't see her father.

Just like in the previous life, why the new King Wusun drove her and her son away, it was because she was very favored at the beginning, although her son was born by herself, a Han girl, but she was also given three armies by King Wusun.

You have to fight for it yourself at any time, and her mother's status is what she won by herself, and she will do the same in the future.

This New Year, everyone is filled with joy, and Ke Lishu knows that according to the trajectory of the previous life, the Great Qi army was defeated, just to stabilize people's hearts, so the news has not been released until now.

The Liu family still invited the drama wine, and Lishu also met Miss Wen, Wen Hanlin's daughter. Miss Wen's name is very good, her single name is revealed, and she is also very happy to see Lishu.

"The last time I saw you at Princess Longchang, you played the piano very well, but unfortunately I still wanted to come forward to talk to you, but you talked to the county lord of Jinxian, and I couldn't disturb it."

Lishu saw that she had a delicate face, and heard that Wen Hanlin only had her daughter, so she was very precious.

In fact, the Liu family and the Wen family have no contacts, Liu Chengxu and Wen Hanlin are not from the same department.

So this Miss Wen came with her aunt. Uncle and Wen Hanlin are peers, as for what Wen Lu is doing, there is no need to guess, probably just to see her sweetheart.

And what came at him, those are all disguises.

She is too stupid, Zeng Yunfang has already married the lord of Shao'an, and she is still here.

"Miss Wen, the first time you come to our house, don't run around. We talk more together, and as it is cold today, I am less and less mobile. Lishu meant.

Of course, Wen Lu didn't come here to really get acquainted with Lishu, she had read the poems written by Lishu, not at the peak, not even as good as hers, but she was very smart.

The deep meaning of these words is that you don't meet Zeng Yunfang at my house.

But Wen Lu didn't think so, she brought a lot of servants over, but it was just the pain of lovesickness, and the two were separated by others at the most difficult time, how cruel.

She didn't even say goodbye to Zeng Yunfang.

She wanted to see her.

Lishu saw Wen Lu lower her head, she went to watch the play by herself, and she had already reminded her that if she had to put a moth to the fire, no one could stop her.

Wen Lu felt that what she was doing was very hidden, the people she brought were all confidants, and they met at the Liu family, the Liu family is a Jinyi Wei family, and the door valve is Sensen.

How could the county lord of Shao'an find out?

Halfway through the play, Wen Lu really disappeared, and Li Zhenzheng gossiped with the girls of the Lu Guogong Mansion: "This Wen girl, the daughter of a poor Hanlin, came to our Liu family with her aunt, and said that she admired the reputation of the third sister, I think she wants to climb our family." ”

"People nowadays, I don't like to act like this."

……

When Wen Lu came back, she said that she was lost, and her eyes were slightly red, as if she had cried.

My aunt glanced at Wen Lu, and couldn't help but feel that she was unlucky, and when the New Year was over, where would anyone cry at someone's house.

No one would think that Wen Lu was still disconnected from Zeng Yunfang, after all, he robbed his husband with the county lord, he didn't want to live, right?

……

Lantern Festival, this year, because Lishu is about to leave the pavilion, she can't go out, so it's inevitable that she will feel bored.

"Girl, it's nice for us to watch the lights in the house."

"But there must be a lot of excitement outside today, and there must be a lot of people, and if you rub shoulders, something will definitely happen." Lishu sighed.

Siyu and Tingxue took out the flower cards again, and the three of them played cards for a while, and when they were about to fall asleep, they heard Xiao Fu come over in a hurry.

"Miss Wen who came to our house that day, you said that she was so miserable, she was almost abducted by a kidnapper, guess what, I happened to meet Aunt Zheng and they were wandering on the street, so I saved people, but unfortunately the kidnappers ran fast. It's good that you didn't go out, otherwise, it would be really terrible. Xiao Fu looked at his daughter worriedly.

Lishu suddenly asked, "Do you think it is possible that it is the county lord of Shao'an?" ”

Xiao Fu's spirit: "This is unlikely, the county lord has entered the palace with the prince and princess." Besides, she doesn't like Zeng Yunfang. ”

I don't like it, but it's her stuff.

Wen Lu thought that no one knew about meeting at the Liu family, but she forgot that the Song family was the in-law of the lord of Shao'an.

People can't wait to make meritorious contributions.

Xiao Fu said: "The emperor is sluggish, Prince Cheng is Concubine Wang after all."

of species,

The emperor didn't like it very much. Only Prince Yun,

I used to have a good relationship with the emperor, she couldn't move you, but she could move Miss Wen. ”

"She may not be able to move me, it's just that I preemptively attacked, but whenever something happens to me, others will definitely think that she is the victim." Lishu shook her head.

Xiao Fu said: "This royal person is not a good thing. ”

Lishu agrees with this sentence, Emperor Yongchu is selfish, appoints officials to attack each other, and the officials are corrupt, and he is reluctant to remove the rotten skin, so he has to get by, and he has to maintain his position.

It was Zheng Hao's people who saved Wen Lu, and her heart moved.

She slept soundly this night, no matter what, Wenlu was rescued in the end, and she was not taken captive anywhere. But she was desperate to see someone, wondering why he happened to save Wenlu? She hid this in her heart and didn't tell anyone.

Early the next morning, she had just finished freshening up, and she heard outside that Zheng Gongzi had come to deliver lanterns.

Lishu stood up suddenly.

Zheng Hao came over with a delicate lotus glass lamp, looked at her and smiled, and handed over the lantern.

Lishu took the lamp, and everyone retreated with interest, in the end, they were an unmarried couple.

"It's you, you didn't happen to be passing by, did you?" Lishu looked at Zheng Hao.

Zheng Hao nodded: "I'm afraid that she will be unfavorable to you, and let people find out who she usually uses, so I often send people to follow." I didn't think there was anything wrong yesterday, after all, I heard that you were at home, but I didn't expect it to be another girl this time, and it can be regarded as saving a life. ”

Lishu smiled, everything she did was not in vain, Zheng Hao was worth it. She originally thought that the person who was being stalking was Xiao Yun, because when he was in the nunnery, he hid a note in his snack that he would send someone to keep an eye on the county lord of Shao'an to reassure him.

But the fact is that his person did not appear, although Xiao Yun saved her in his previous life, but he was a character, unless it was someone he cared about very much, he would treat it like a mustard, how could he save a strange woman locked in a small black room for no reason? On the contrary, Zheng Hao was not afraid of offending Prince Yun because he was not his fiancée, but stepped forward to save people without hesitation, he was indeed very good.

Before this, Zheng Hao had never said that he would protect her.

"I thank you for her, but you scared the snake this time, I'm afraid they will deal with you." Lishu worried.

Zheng Hao smiled slyly, "Then what's there to be afraid of, the Wen family has already reported to the official today, and the people of the county lord of Shao'an have to go to the field to hide, and they won't be able to come back for a while." ”

Lishu's eyes lit up: "So I'm relieved." ”

"I want to ask you a question?" Zheng Hao said suddenly.

Lishu thought it was a complicated question: "How?" Can I help? ”

"How does your hair stay dark, long, and exceptionally shiny? There are no impurities at all. Zheng Hao asked curiously.

Lishu was stunned, but still gushed about her hair care experience: "First of all, I love to eat marine fish and shrimp, oysters, oysters, etc., and then when I wash my hair, I wash them twice, and then use jasmine oil to ......."

She talked a long way, and seeing that Zheng Hao really listened very seriously, Lishu suddenly liked him. No man has ever listened to himself so carefully and taken himself so seriously.

And he actually discovered his secret, in fact, the best thing she has in her body is hair.

Zheng Hao saw that after she finished speaking, he said a lot better, his mood improved, and he was relieved.

In the end, he got two bottles of jasmine head oil and put them in his room, and shook his head again, I have to study, if you don't pass the Jinshi exam, what kind of face do you have to marry Lishu?

In the past few days, I have been very tired from reading, and it was easy to participate in the poetry meeting yesterday, but I delayed my efforts because of saving people.

As soon as he turned a few pages, he saw his cousin Li Tang visiting, Zheng Hao hurriedly stuffed the book into the drawer under the desk.

Li Tang walked in quickly and said, "I'm reading again." The Lantern Festival has just passed, and you should be relaxed. ”

Zheng Hao said with a smile: "Where is it, every day poetry will feast and drink, I am sitting in the study for a while." ”

Li Tang said disdainfully: "Don't lie to me, I heard my aunt say that your account is blackened, you read it every day and night, and you are still pretending in front of me." ”

"Who, who said that?" Zheng Hao was annoyed and angry.

Li Tang was deeply affected by this cousin, and often had a light appearance, which made him mistakenly think that his cousin could learn well without studying, and he also went to play, but he didn't expect people to learn hard behind their backs.

It's a big fool.

……！
