The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1108 The heart is big

"Did the girl fall asleep?" Yan's mother's voice sounded outside the house, Lian Xin glanced at her own girl, got approval, and then went out to answer.

As soon as he left the house, he saw Yan's mother carrying a wooden box behind her and waiting outside.

"Slave servant Lian Xin met Yan's mother!"

"Miss Lianxin, you don't need to be too polite!" Yan's mother smiled happily.

"This is a special product from the south of the Yangtze River sent by Mr. Gu to our house. This box belongs to the girl. Mr. Gu's entourage said that they are all small things to relieve the girl's boredom. I will ask someone to carry it in for the girl!"

He called his mother-in-law and carried the box into the house.After the people left, Lian Xin clicked her tongue.

"Girl, Master Gu sent quite a lot of things." Lian Xin walked around the box, curious about what was inside.

"Girl, the servants outside are saying that Master Gu is back." Qing Dai entered the room with a tray, and at this moment her face was filled with a cheerful smile.

As soon as she entered the house, she saw a large box on the ground.

Qing Dai asked curiously: "What is this?"

"Master Gu ordered someone to bring it here." The smile on Lian Xin's face gradually faded, this Qing Dai has been carrying a bird's nest for so long, she probably went to inquire about the news.

"Master Gu sent it? What are they?" Qing Dai put down the bird's nest and looked at Lian Xin with bright eyes.

Yao Mengxian hooked her lips into a smile, Qing Dai was not young anymore.Before she was at the mansion, she had to rely on Qing Dai to inquire about the news.

Now when the wedding date is fixed, she will leave the court, so it would be wrong to keep Qing Dai by her side.

There is also Lian Xin, this girl admits to death, saying that she has been with her for the rest of her life.For Lian Xin, she still has other plans.When she gets married in the future, it's better to choose a pleasing one for Lian Xin at her husband's house.

She has seen all these servants in the Duke's mansion, but none of them have taken a fancy to them.

But Qing Dai doesn't plan to stay anymore, Qing Dai's heart is getting bigger.

"Open it and have a look!" Yao Mengxian smiled at the two of them, she was also curious about what was inside.

"Ouch! Is this silk from the Jiangnan side? The color is brighter than ours! I heard that the silks and satins from the Jiangnan side are better than our capital's. I've never seen this style before."

Qing Dai touched a rouge-colored cloud, her eyes sparkled with admiration.This kind of material is hard to find in the capital, even in the Duke's mansion, she has never seen such a material.

No wonder it is said that being an official is good. Look, as long as you become an official, you can get all kinds of good things.It may be said that this material was honored by others to Mr. Gu, so why should Mr. Gu find it by himself?
Yao Mengxian leaned forward to take a look, there were several pieces of cloth in the box, she had never seen this material before.However, one can tell that it is a precious thing.

"Girl, here is the gift list!" Lian Xin had sharp eyes and saw the top gift list.

Yao Mengxian held it in her hand and looked at it, she was already familiar with these pieces of material.But what was contained in that box turned out to be a pair of pearl hair masks, another gold silk inlaid ruby ​​double luan tassel hairpin, and a pair of red coral bracelets.

Looking down, there are some gadgets, such as a pair of white jade chess pieces, nine chains, puppets and so on.

Yao Mengxian couldn't help but smile and frowned. Could it be that this person regards herself as a baby?
A warm feeling came to my heart, and my face was a little rosier than before.

"Girl! Mrs. Gu sent a lot of things." Lian Xin was a little surprised, but then a sad expression appeared on her face.

It is good for Master Gu to have his own girl in his heart, but these things are so expensive, if they just accept them like this, will the girl be looked down upon by Master Gu?
Although the girl is already Master Gu's fiancée, the two are not married yet after all, aren't they?
Even if the girl and Mr. Gu get married in the future, these can only be brought into Gu's residence as the girl's dowry, and they have taken advantage of it.

"Girl, how much money do you get for such a precious thing?" Qing Dai has already looked at the jewelry quickly, and she is a little astonished at Gu Chengyu's generosity.

Yao Mengxian put down the gift list, "Put everything away!"

"Girl, there are so many things." Lian Xin hesitated to speak, thinking that it would be bad to keep them like this?
"It's nothing, grandma and the others must have seen it. Since it was brought up, it means that we should accept it."

Yao Mengxian was actually surprised by Gu Chengyu's generosity. She heard from her grandmother that Gu Chengyu had sent a lot of good things to the mansion over the years.

She was still wondering before, how could the Gu family be so rich when they heard that they were from a farming family?Later, I heard my grandfather mutter something, saying that Gu Chengyu has a lot of business in his hands.

It's just that it's not easy to say this to Lian Xin and Qing Dai, because officials are not allowed to do business after all.If it is said, those censors are not vegetarians.

Yao Mengxian ordered Lianxin to put away her things, and then talked about Qingdai's marriage.

Now Qingdai's heart is getting bigger and bigger, she doesn't plan to stay by her side anymore.The last time she saw Qingdai always go to her elder brother's side, this made Yao Mengxian wary.

"Qingdai, I have mentioned your marriage with your old lady before, and they said it depends on your own wishes. A member of Wang Rui's family came to mention it to her kid before, what do you say?"

Yao Mengxian stared closely at Qing Dai's eyes, thinking that for so many years of affection, she has done her utmost to Qing Dai.

Based on Qingdai's performance in the mansion in the past two years, if she hadn't taken her affection into consideration, she would have thought of a way to drive him away.

"The girl is going to throw the slave in the mansion? The slave and the girl have agreed before that they will go out with you."

Qing Dai's face was full of shock, Yao Mengxian had mentioned this before, but she was unwilling, so she didn't mention it again, she thought the girl had acquiesced.

But now the girl is bringing up the old story again, so how can she not feel flustered?
Originally, Gu Chengyu was still a sixth-rank official. Although he was capable, how could he compare to the young master who was going to be a prince in the future?

So she often went to the young master's side, just to make the young master take a fancy to her and raise her to be his aunt.

Unexpectedly, the wife gave birth to a son later on. She felt that the matter of the eldest young master Chengjue was really hanging in the balance, so she was still waiting and watching.

Not long ago, it was reported that Mr. Gu had been promoted to the fourth-rank Dali Temple Shaoqing, which was amazing, and her mind became active again.

Mr. Gu has a face like a crown of jade, and the jade tree faces the wind. Who would not want to marry Mr. Gu?
Now that he has been promoted to the fourth rank, all the aristocratic families in the capital feel sorry for him, and they all regret that the Duke of Zhen's mansion took advantage of it for nothing.

Such a young man is a fourth-rank official. After a few years, he might really be able to be an extremely human minister.

Qing Dai thought for a while, but Mr. Gu has a better future.Coupled with the fact that there are few masters in the Gu family, life must be peaceful.

If, as a dowry girl, she followed the girl to marry Gu's mansion, and was raised to be an aunt, would she still worry about a good life in the future?
Qing Dai watched Lian Xin gather all the things together and put them back together, she couldn't help being envious in her heart.
