The Splendid Fate of the Reborn First Daughter

Chapter 151 The Dowry Matter

The days passed by seemingly peacefully.

Finally, Zhao Guangchuan also became a relative.He is the eldest son of Dingbei Prince's Mansion, so he is naturally a guest like a cloud.Xia Yuwei commanded the family stewards to ensure that the marriage affairs should be full of flowers.

Zhao Guangchuan is proud of the spring breeze, so there is no need to elaborate.Hongyu took some time and quietly came to the front hall. Sure enough, Zhao Yanzhong and Zhao Yanli followed Zhao Zhongliang.

Looking at Hongyu from a distance, Zhao Yanzhong became more and more handsome, with delicate features, somewhat like Zimo, and also somewhat like Zhao Zhongliang.

Hongyu looked at him, her eyes flushed.Zhao Yanzhong suddenly felt something in his heart, and turned his head to look over.Hongyu hurriedly hid.Zhao Yanzhong suddenly froze for some reason.

Zhao Yanli asked, "Brother, what are you looking at?"

Zhao Yanzhong came back to his senses and said, "I seem to see a friend, I'll go over and say hello."

Zhao Yanli nodded: "Brother, then you go over and have a look, I'm here."

Zhao Yanzhong stood up and walked towards Hongyu.Hongyu watched him approach from afar, blushing and heart beating for a while, and a little nervous, who knew that Zhao Yanzhong had just walked halfway, when suddenly a son of Xungui's family stepped forward and grabbed him: "Brother Yanzhong, long time no see. "

Zhao Yanzhong stopped, exchanged some pleasantries with him, and when he turned his head to look again, Hongyu had disappeared.

Zhao Yan felt melancholy in his heart, and unconsciously walked towards the garden.

He walked and looked all the way, avoiding the crowd, and came to the small gazebo by the lotus lake.He was just about to lift his foot to go in, but he saw that someone had already taken a step forward and was sitting inside. When he looked carefully, it turned out to be Hongyu.

Zhao Yan was overjoyed, and his steps became much lighter.

When Hongyu heard footsteps, she turned around, and when she saw Zhao Yanzhong, she had mixed feelings for a moment, and the two of them faced each other like this, one sitting and the other standing, both of them were silent.

"You..." Zhao Yanzhong said.

Hongyu lowered her head, Zhao Yanzhong suddenly shut up again.

Hongyu looked up at him, "Master Biao, why are you here?"

Zhao Yanzhong didn't speak either.The two were silent again.

Hongyu thought for a while and said, "I'm going back, the princess is afraid that she will ask me to do something."

Zhao Yan's heart sank slightly, but his face didn't show it, he just continued to remain silent.

Seeing that he was still speechless, Hongyu stood up and said, "Master Biao, I'm leaving now." After speaking, she left the gazebo and went to Xia Yuwei's yard.

Looking at her back, Zhao Yanzhong slowly revealed a disappointed look on his face.

"Brother..." Zhao Yanli appeared out of nowhere, "Father saw that you have been away for a long time, so he asked me to come out to find you. Hey, who is that?" Zhao Yanli followed Zhao Yanzhong's gaze and saw Hongyu leaving back view.

Zhao Yanzhong didn't speak, Zhao Yanli smiled and said, "Brother, could it be that little girl?"

Zhao Yanzhong said with a wry smile: "It's her. But she won't even look at me, I'm like a fool, thinking about her for so many years."

Zhao Yanli said, "Did you tell her?"

Zhao Yanzhong shook his head, Zhao Yanli said: "You didn't say anything, how do you know she won't marry you?"

Zhao Yanzhong said: "As soon as I arrived, she left, and I didn't even have a chance to speak."

Zhao Yanli said: "Brother, you are too stupid, how can you miss such an opportunity casually. Just wait, I will ask her for you."

Just as Zhao Yanzhong was about to stop him, Zhao Yanli had already hurried away.

Zhao Yanli went all the way to the inner courtyard, but the gatekeeper's wife refused to let him in.The mother-in-law said: "The princess has ordered that no one can let outsiders into the inner courtyard without authorization. There are so many people today, if something goes wrong, I can't afford it."

Zhao Yanli took out two taels of silver and handed it over, "Since that's the case, I won't go in, please send a message, just say that I'm begging to see Miss Hongyu."

The mother-in-law took the silver and said with a smile, "It's okay to pass on the word."

Not long after, Hongyu came out: "I don't know who is looking for me?"

Zhao Yanli hurried forward: "Miss Hongyu, it's me."

Seeing that it was him, Hongyu was very surprised: "Master Second Biao, what's the matter with you?"

Zhao Yanli said: "Someone asked me to ask, are you willing to marry and be a concubine?"

Hongyu blushed immediately, "Where did you say that?"

Zhao Yanli said: "My elder brother, I want to marry you as a concubine, but I'm afraid you will feel wronged..." He looked at Hongyu's face and said, "My elder brother has liked you for many years, but he never dared to tell you He said, a girl like you must be liked by many people, and he thinks she is not good enough for you." Hongyu smiled slightly unconsciously.

As soon as Zhao Yanli saw it, he felt relaxed.He said: "My elder brother is always stuffy when he has something to say. Every time you look serious, he doesn't dare to approach you. But he really likes you. Every time he comes to Dingbei Palace, he always Going to sit by the lotus lake for a while, he said, that's where you first met."

Hongyu blushed, she lowered her head, and said, "My marriage is decided by the princess..."

Zhao Yanli said: "Okay then, I'll tell my brother to ask him to find Wangfei to ask for someone."

Hongyu blushed even more, hesitated for a moment, took out a handkerchief, and handed it over, Zhao Yanli took it, and saw it was a plain handkerchief without any marks, just as he was about to ask, Hongyu turned and went back.

Zhao Yanli hurried back to the lotus lake, where Zhao Yanzhong was waiting for him.

Zhao Yanli said, "Brother, how can you thank me?"

Zhao Yanzhong beamed with joy, "Is she willing?"

Zhao Yanli smiled and said: "She asked you to go to the princess to propose marriage."

Zhao Yanzhong smiled immediately: "Okay, I'll go and tell Dad right away."

Zhao Yanli took out the handkerchief: "Here, she gave it to you."

Zhao Yanzhong took it over, saw that it was an unmarked plain handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Mother said, all the maids who serve the concubine have no marks on their handkerchiefs, saying that they are afraid that others will take it away and give birth. right and wrong."

Zhao Yanli said: "I said, give me such a handkerchief, I still have doubts in my heart."

The two returned to the front hall talking and laughing. Seeing how happy they were, Zhao Zhongliang asked, "You two boys, where did you go? It took you so long to come back."

Zhao Yanzhong said: "I will report this matter to you when I get home."

That's all for Zhao Zhongliang.

After Zhao Guangchuan toasted a round of wine, Zhao Guangping said quietly: "Brother, you can go to the new house to have a look, there are me and third uncle here, it's all right."

Zhao Guangchuan quietly left the banquet and went to the new house.

The female relatives here are also discussing, and someone said: "I heard that the bride was accompanied by 32 liters of dowry alone, and there were four accompanying houses, and six maids for dowry."

After hearing this, Concubine Yao secretly hated her.Unconsciously, I drank an extra glass.

When the princess saw her, she couldn't help contemptuous of Concubine Yao, and deliberately talked about the dowry with others.

The princess said: "You are young, how do you know about the dowry, no matter how much it is carried, what is in it is what matters."

Everyone listened and looked over.The concubine smiled and said: "It's the same 32 pieces, but there is a difference whether it is stuffed inside or a few pieces on the surface. It is also different whether the dowry is jadeite, green jade, or ordinary jade pieces. Even if it is jadeite , There is also a difference in fineness, if you look carefully, you will know whether this woman is favored at home or not, and whether the family is rich or not."

After everyone listened, there was another discussion.
