Chapter 244: Wealthy as a Country
Shen Heshan originally wanted to say more, but looking at Jing Muling's expression, he did not dare to speak and could only wait for Xi Po to continue reading.
After receiving Jing Muling's order, Xipo said loudly: "One hundred and eighty-eight loads of silver, totaling tens of millions of taels, should be converted into silver notes and betrothal gifts of gold and silver to express gratitude for the kindness of raising her!"
The sum of gold and silver is enough to make everyone jealous.
Wouldn’t Taishi Shen’s mansion be as rich as the country in the future? !
Shen Heshan and Yu Qinglian looked at each other, with shock and pride in their eyes.
The betrothal gift cannot be taken away with the mother's family. In other words, all of it belongs to the Taishi Mansion.
Shen Heshan coughed twice, pretending to be flustered and said: "This, this is gold, how can we use silver? Your Highness, King Yu, does not need so much kindness in raising me."
Jing Muling had no expression on his face and turned in the direction of Shen Heshan. He didn't even move his eyes, but he felt quite oppressive.
Shen Heshan didn't dare to be clever anymore, so he kept his mouth shut and stopped talking.
Only then did Xi Po continue.
"There are eight loads of wedding cakes. I hope my relatives and friends can congratulate me together. May the two newlyweds have a prosperous and worry-free future."
"Eight types of seafood, nozzle, two loads each of abalone, oysters, scallops, mushrooms, dried shrimps, squid, sea cucumbers, shark's fins, etc. May the newlyweds have continuous wealth."
"Eighty-eight pairs of pigs, fish, and chickens. May the two newlyweds fly together and live a prosperous and happy life."
"There are also eight kinds of fish, each weighing eighty-eight loads. May the newlyweds have plenty every year."
"Ten pairs of jade, may the newlyweds be a happy couple."
"Eighty-eight jars of fine wine, may the love of the newlyweds be like fine wine, mellow and rich."
"Each of the four capitals has eighty-eight loads of fruits. May the newlyweds give birth to a precious son soon, and may their descendants be prosperous and prosperous."
"Eighty-eight loads each of rock sugar, orange sugar, melon sugar and golden rice. May the newlyweds be as sweet as honey and grow old together."
"Eighty-eight loads of sesame and tea leaves each. May the newlyweds forge a happy marriage, keep their word and never regret it."
Xipo took a breath and prepared to continue.
The old lady couldn't bear it any longer and interrupted: "Your Highness, King Yu, the betrothal gift you gave is too generous. Ordinary people, for good luck, would carry two loads, in pairs."
"Even the royal family only has ten loads at most. You can easily get eighty-eight loads. If word spreads out, others will say that you and the Taishi Mansion are extravagant. The main reason is that so many things cannot be stored and all will be wasted."
"Your Majesty hates extravagance and waste the most. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to bring this up in front of His Majesty!"
Gold and silver are all converted into silver notes, and even a thick pile does not take up space in the brocade box.
But starting with the eight moves of seafood, all the people started with eighty-eight loads, and the eight moves of seafood alone filled up the courtyard of the Taishi Mansion.
The old lady felt strange just now, so she specially ordered Aunt Yuan to go out and take a look at the situation.
It turned out that I had brought all these things, but because the Grand Master’s Mansion couldn’t accommodate them, they were all piled outside. Starting along the Grand Master’s Mansion, they almost circled the entire city!
Such a big battle, not to mention making people jealous, would definitely be detrimental to the Taishi Mansion!
Facing the old lady, Jing Muling did not give orders in an angry manner, but remained kind-hearted, saying: "Old lady, please be patient and listen. Don't interrupt, as it will disturb the auspicious time."
The old lady frowned and wanted to speak, but she saw Shen Heshan winking at her quietly.
No matter how much she said, she could only suppress it temporarily.
Xi Po took a sip of tea and continued to speak loudly: "Eight copies of the sticker box, eighty-eight pairs of dragon and phoenix wedding candles, eighty-eight pairs of green dyed incense, and eighty-eight copies of firecrackers. May the newlyweds have good fortune from all directions."
"Eighty-eight pounds of glutinous rice and sixty-six pounds of sugar. May the newlyweds be perfect and twice as sweet."
"The small and medium-sized items of employment are as follows: eight pairs of white jade combs, eight pairs of brass rulers, eight pairs of wishful scales, eight pairs of gold and silver scissors, eight sapphire abacus, and twenty bronze mirrors in total."
"The big items in the offer are as follows: eight horses, eight pairs of gold and silver tea cans, eight pairs of gold and silver basins, a thousand pieces of silk and satin, eighty-eight pieces of jade, and eight sets of auspicious enamel plates with dragons and phoenixes."
"A total of eighty-eight loads of gold, silver and jade ornaments."
"Finally, there are still some land deeds for the farm and house, so it is inconvenient to announce them." Xipo finished speaking in one breath, put the gift list together, and smiled at Shen Zhuoxi: "I have been Xipo for many years, so I have seen a lot of the world."
"To put it bluntly, before the late emperor's favorite concubine entered the palace, she wanted the same congratulatory gifts as the common people, so she got them from slaves. There were not so many at that time."
"Second Miss is so lucky to have such a willing husband from His Highness King Yu. When she enters Prince Yu's palace, she will be pampered like a fairy in the sky and enjoy happiness."
Shen Zhuoxi didn't expect that Jing Muling would make such a big fuss.
Her face had long been as red as the morning glow in the sky, and she said, "Thank you so much, mama, for your kind words, Hua Zhi, and the reward."
The bounty was so heavy that Xi Po smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes and said, "Thank you, Miss Second, my slave."
"That's not right." Yu Qinglian always felt that something was missing. After thinking about it carefully, she finally remembered what it was and said to Xi Po, "Did you drop something? Since it is a betrothal gift, how can there be no coconut in it?"
"Yeah, I find it strange too." Mrs. Zhang said at the right time: "Coconuts symbolize parents, jade represents children, and the betrothal gift is also given to the girl's natal family. It can't be just jade without coconuts, right?"
Po Xi took the gift list and smiled: "This servant is only responsible for saying happy things, not preparing anything. There are really no coconuts on this gift list."
After she finished speaking, her eyes turned to Jing Muling.
Jing Muling didn't say anything, Zhengyang took out a purse and threw it over, waved his hand and said to Xipo: "You have nothing to do here, go down."
After receiving the wedding money from both families, Xi Po bowed happily and left.
Old Taijun and Shen Heshan also felt strange, but they did not dare to speak, waiting for Jing Muling to take the initiative to explain.
Jing Muling seemed to be aware of everyone's gazes, and said slowly: "Father is kind and son is filial. I think Taishi Shen's father did not do well. Since Coconut is a parent, I have sent someone to send him to Princess Xiaoqing's mausoleum." .”
"Since Princess Xiaoqing has passed away, it is natural that there will be no one on the wedding list. Do you understand the old lady and the grand master?"
The old lady's expression froze, and she almost fainted while covering her heart.
His Highness King Yu’s behavior is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Grand Master and the Grand Master’s Mansion!
Shen Heshan was not much better. He felt depressed and helpless: "May I ask, Your Highness, I am a humble minister...how can I not be a good father?"
"Aren't you feeling guilty when you ask this?" Jing Muling sneered: "I am blind in my eyes but not blind in my heart. When I first met the second young lady, she was as dark and thin as a wild monkey in the mountains."
"You know, I know that she is Miss Shen Er who is locked up in the backyard and is not allowed to go out. Those who don't know think she is a disaster victim who fled into the city. What kind of life did she spend in the Grand Master's Mansion? I don't need to explain it, right?"
Shen Heshan froze and stumbled: "Well, that's because the second young lady was stupid at first and couldn't eat normally like a normal person. That's why she looked weaker than ordinary people."
Jing Muling snorted coldly: "Do you really think that I am stupid? I have asked the people who are serving her, and the food she eats is not even as good as a servant. Is this because she cannot eat normally?"
It was not too hot in the morning, and there was an ice basin in the house, but Shen Heshan felt as if he was in a flaming mountain.
Sweat dripped down his neck, and he didn't know how to defend himself.
Didn’t no one care about it before?
Today, His Highness King Yu is here to hire someone, or is he looking for trouble!
Shen Heshan groaned secretly in his heart and lowered his head a little.
