Little lucky girl from the peasant family: Queen Splendid

Chapter 405
Soon, the news flew out from Ding's house, and flew into the courtyards of various wealthy families in Kyoto, and the back houses of various cultural relics officials.Almost a lot of people are thinking about getting married at the same time. Those who have daughters at home think about which daughter is suitable, and those who don’t have daughters at home, they rush to their nieces or nieces, or simply adopt a adopted daughter...

So, within two days, the threshold of the Earl's Mansion was almost broken, and countless matchmakers rushed over with missions.

They are also the messengers of the old moon, the old Cupid with flapping wings, but they are also divided into three, six, and nine classes.The official media wearing red bijia looked at the crowd of folk colleagues, and it seemed a little arrogant.

It's a pity that after entering the Earl's Mansion, they all came out with their heads bowed.There is no other reason, the two old nuns specially rewarded by the empress said that the earl has long been engaged, and will be hired in the next few days.

Who the hell, who acted so quickly, leaving all the colleagues behind?
Whether it is the official media or ordinary matchmakers, they are not convinced, and when they pester the old mother and want to ask what happened.The veteran sent by the Chu family from the south put down the broom in their hands and invited them all outside the door.The blood accumulated from fighting on the sofa on the battlefield frightened the eloquent matchmakers into winter quails, shrinking their necks and making no sound...

But even so, everyone kept their eyes on the door of Ding's house, guessing who would be the first to grab the big cake of Ding's house.

And the Ding family didn't disappoint everyone, but within two or three days they opened the courtyard, brought out 32 liters of dowry gifts, loaded them into a carriage, and headed all the way to Kyoto.

Finally, the carriage arrived in front of the gate of the capital, and the dowry was unloaded, and there were two young men in green clothes and hats who were neatly tidied up. They walked briskly into the city gate all the way, walked around to the south of the city, and entered behind the Dong family mansion. of a house.

Everyone suddenly realized that it was the Dong family!

Previously, Mr. Dong Ge tried his best to persuade the emperor to choose a concubine, but unfortunately the emperor only fell in love with the empress for one day, which made the old man very angry for a while.Now it's good, the daughter of the Dong family can't be stuffed into the harem, instead, she's stuffed into the Ding family's compound and becomes the empress's in-laws.This is simply a big reversal, and it also made everyone secretly scold the old fox.

But no matter what, the dowry has also gone to the fifth room of the Dong family, and the marriage of the two families is already a nail in the coffin, and it is definitely done.Taking a ten thousand step back, even if Ding's second son suddenly had an accident and went to see Lord Yan, then Dong Wan is also a widow of Ding's family!

There are more than a hundred people, of all kinds.The family is big and there are all kinds of people. Each house of the Dong family has envy, jealousy, and worries about the fifth house marrying the eldest daughter to the newly released earl. The not-so-big house was packed to the brim.

The Dong family held a banquet, the men were in the front yard, and the women sat in the main room in the back yard and ate a few absent-minded mouthfuls, and they couldn't bear to clamor to see the dowry gift from the Ding family.

Mrs. Xu has a strong temper. Originally, she thought that the dowry would not be too generous because she was from a peasant family in the Ding family. She thought that she would add more dowry to her daughter later to support her face, and her daughter would be better off at her in-law's house.Unexpectedly, a group of women wanted to open the box to have a look.In desperation, she had no choice but to let Zhang Luo, the eldest maid beside her, bring in all the dowry boxes.

Ding Lao Er originally ran a woodware shop, and because the sister didn't inspire some new blueprints, Ding's woodware is now a sought-after commodity in Kyoto.The boxes used for the wedding this time were made by the masters in the shop working overtime. Although each box is about the same size as an ordinary box, the wood is excellent, the carvings are plain and elegant, and the four corners are wrapped with brass. It's a flower pattern, 32 carrying dowry gifts, one pair of one color, and there are sixteen kinds, even if you don't look at what is inside, just looking at this box will make the female relatives nod again and again.

Suddenly, Mrs. Xu had great confidence in the Ding family's dowry, and nodded to the maids to open the boxes one by one.The first pair of boxes contained the betrothal money, one was filled with silver and the other was filled with gold, 660 taels of silver and 66 taels of gold, both of which were the numbers of Da Shun!
The dazzling white and golden color hides the contempt on the faces of many female relatives.Previously, I thought that the Ding family was from a farming family, and a dowry of 200 taels would be good, but I didn’t expect that it would be more than 1000 taels, which is not much worse than the dowry of other wealthy families.

Someone squeezed their throats and laughed sourly, "Oh, the Earl's Mansion is not willing to do so. But our Dong family is not selling a girl, just give money?"

Someone smoothed things over, "Hurry up and look at other things!"

The big maid hurriedly opened the second pair of boxes, which contained betrothal cakes.A total of one hundred catties, divided into eight styles, horseshoe cake, honey cake, meat muffins, plum blossom cake...

Almost all soft dim sum are included, and the sign of Ding Kee Dim Sum Shop is very conspicuous.Everyone couldn't find any faults, so they quickly turned to the next pair of boxes, which turned out to be full of various dried goods, such as abalone, Chinese yuan scallops, mushrooms, dried shrimps, squid, sea cucumbers, and even shark fins and fish maws, which almost burst out of the box.

Someone cheekily searched for chopsticks and inserted them into the bottom of the box, trying to make sure that the bottom was empty.You must know that some people will do this for the sake of looking good.Unfortunately, it was obvious that the Ding family was not that kind of people, the box was so crowded that even chopsticks couldn't fit in it.The female relative threw away the chopsticks with a embarrassed expression, and said with a smile, "Hey, I'm also afraid that the Ding family will fool us Wan'er."

Everyone curled their lips in disdain, but they never exposed her jealousy.

Soon, all the boxes were opened, four-color fruits, four-color sugar, tea leaves, sticker boxes, gold incense gun bracelets, bucket rice, wine, almost everything that one could expect, everything was complete.

Such a tidy and decent dowry was beyond the expectations of the Dong family.Those who have daughters at home can't help but start to complain that Mr. Dong Ge is eccentric. How can such a good marriage be cheaper for Wufang?

But Xu Shike was in full bloom, even though he tried his best to hold back, the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be hidden, and he invited everyone to sit down and drink again.They also arranged for the mothers-in-law and maidservants to return the presents, and finally waited for the youngsters from Ding's family to give the betrothal gifts to eat and drink enough, so they each opened a big red envelope, and Lin Liu, who led the team, even got a shining golden scorpion!

Dong Wan was in the boudoir, blushing with embarrassment, but her ears were pricked up, listening to the servant girl talking vividly about how rich the betrothal gift was, and how wonderful the faces of the female family members who had conflicts with their mothers were, she couldn't help but also laughed.For the days to come, I suddenly have so much anticipation...

On the [-]th day of the winter moon, one of the good days calculated by Qin Tianjian countless times, the Ding family in Rexiaoli took off the white lanterns in front of the door, replaced them with red happy characters, and welcomed back the new daughter-in-law of the second room. But it was the first Mrs. Xiao and Uncle, who was ordered by the third rank.

The Dong family gave away their daughter who had been pampered for 18 years, so Xu's eyes would be red and swollen from crying, and Dong Wan's younger brothers and sisters would hold her sister and refused to let go.It was a great event for the Dante's family to add people. Thirty miles away, all the young and old were smiling happily.

The emperor returned, the empress was pregnant with a dragon fetus, and the Ding family was awarded double titles. No matter how blind people are, they can see that the Ding family has never been the same since then, so all the wealthy and wealthy families who can have a little relationship rushed to join in the congratulations .Even if it was irrelevant, he came to the door with a generous gift and a smile.

It was always carried by everyone in bridal sedan chairs, and the Ding family was not so stupid as to drive people out. The wine and food were good, and the hospitality was very thoughtful.

Because Ding Wei's stomach is too big, both Gong Zhiming and Gu Momo stopped her from leaving the palace.In desperation, she could only pout and stay in the palace.Dabao, Tong Fu'er, and Yu'er were all sent back.Although An Ge'er didn't know what getting married was, he knew that there was excitement, so he followed suit.

Although he is young, he is a genuine dragon son, the future emperor, so when he arrives at Ding's house, he almost steals the role of Ding's second child.In the end, it was Fang Xin who directly carried him to the back house, so that Ding Laoer and his wife could visit the church and get married smoothly.

On the second day, as soon as the time passed, Ding Lao Er brought Mrs. Dong into the palace to pay his respects.Ding Wei entertained her brother and sister-in-law for tea and snacks. Seeing that the wrinkles on the brows of Ding's second child seemed to be three-pointed, Dong's face was also flushed, and the corners of his brows and eyes were full of spring.Needless to say, this night and morning together between husband and wife must be considered peaceful.

After the family chatted a few gossips, Ding Wei nodded at Yunying.Yunying quickly opened the box to find a three-piece small box, and gently placed it in front of Ding Wei.

Ding Wei opened the two red sandalwood boxes with her own hands, glanced at the things inside, and pushed them to Dong Shi, and said with a smile, "I have a big belly now, and the emperor won't let me out of the palace. I didn't go to have a drink with my brother and sister-in-law yesterday." I feel very regretful about the wedding. I happened to get two sets of good jewelry earlier, and today I gave them to my sister-in-law as a gift."

Dong Shi seemed a little unexpected, but she was shocked when she glanced at the box.

There were two sets of head jewelry neatly placed in the box, one set with rubies and the other with sapphires, which were very delicate.Thin rays of sunlight happen to shine through the gaps in the windows, shining on the gemstones, red as blood and blue as the sea, people can't help being fascinated by it, unable to extricate themselves.

However, there is no woman who does not love gemstones and jewelry.Mrs. Dong lost her mind for a while, but Ding's second son was sober, and refused on behalf of his wife, "Weier, these jewelry are too expensive, you can keep them for yourself. Your sister-in-law has a dowry, and our family has some foundations. I'll just buy it for your sister-in-law."

"How can that work?" Ding Wei stared and blamed, "I gave my sister-in-law's body jewelry, you can't use it if you stop it. Besides, I am alone in the harem now, and the emperor almost gave all the gems and pearls that were brought up. I made jewelry for me. But I don’t like to wear it, so I put it in the box to collect dust. My sister-in-law is newly married and young, so it is suitable for these two sets of jewelry. Let me be my sister-in-law to share my worries!"

Her words were euphemistic and sweet, but Dong Shi, who came back to his senses, still blushed and refused in fear, "No, nanny, I can't take it. It's too precious!"
