Chapter 307: Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Prosperity (2)
Although this Jiji ceremony was more lively than the girls of ordinary officials' families, it was far from the original plan.Of course, no one cares about these things now. If it is possible not to hold it, Han Qian would rather stay with her mother all day long and serve the decoction.

After the Jiji ceremony is held, it means that the girl has grown up and can talk about marriage.

Han Qian knew that this early ceremony was to prepare for her entry into the palace, so she stayed with her father and mother as much as possible during this period.He didn't care about what he was about to enter the palace at all.

Of course, the matter of entering the palace does not require her to do anything.

Wealthy families have always prepared a dowry for their daughter from the moment she was born, adding a little every year, accumulating things year after year, and tidying up again when she gets married, adding some new tricks temporarily The stuff is almost there.

In the folk, there is such a proverb: endless preparations for the New Year, endless dowry daughters.In other words, there is never enough preparation for the New Year, and there is never enough preparation for the daughter's dowry. As long as she does not get married for a day, parents will always worry about the dowry.

The same is true of Han Qian's dowry. The eldest princess has prepared it carefully for 14 years, and her dowry completely filled a warehouse in the Princess Mansion.There are six high-quality carved beds made of several kinds of precious woods such as sandalwood, nanmu and rosewood.As for the couches, tables, chairs, curtains, and various furnishings, there are more than six sets of almost everything.

The three of Gu Shi, Feng Shi, and Wei Tiantian would feel dizzy after counting those things on the dowry list every day.

Fortunately, Han Qian entered the palace, and everything in the palace was ready-made, and there was no need to place many utensils, they just moved from one warehouse to another.

Today, the Eldest Princess' condition has stabilized. Although people can't get out of bed, they can already sit up and chat with others.

After serving her with the decoction, Han Qian chatted with her for a while, seeing that she was not in good spirits, he and Wei Tiantian helped her to lie down and rest.

"Sleeping, let's go out and talk." Wei Tiantian pointed to the outside and whispered.

Han Qian nodded, put down the tent with Wei Tiantian, and walked lightly to the outside room.

Pingguoer and Lanxiang each came in with a little maid holding a washbasin to serve the two masters after washing their hands and then serving fruit plates, snacks, and fragrant tea.

Han Qian took an orange and peeled it open one by one, and gave half of the orange petals to Wei Tiantian.

Wei Tiantian broke off a petal, put it in his mouth, and said with a light smile, "This orange is not as sweet as last year's."

Han Qian shook her head and sighed, "It's probably because of too much rain this year. Not only are oranges not sweet, but even grapes and apples are not sweet. Watermelon is also full of moisture."

"Oh, it's really amazing. Now the most delicate person in our family knows this too?" Wei Tiantian joked with a smile, "Is there any credit for this?"

Han Qian smiled wryly, and immediately remembered another matter, so he put the orange back in his hand and asked seriously, "Sister, did mother punish you when you came back from Tao Town that day?"

"You think I'm stupid?" Wei Tiantian smiled and shook his head.

"Are there any? You know I'm so worried!" Han Qian sighed.

"No." Wei Tiantian said, leaning into Han Qian's ear, and whispered, "I came back in the middle of the night, and I didn't go to the eldest princess to plead guilty after returning home, so I went directly to the Little Buddha Hall to kneel Got it. Not only did the eldest princess not scold me when she found out, she even sighed and said: I don’t blame you, I know you won’t be able to stand that girl’s hard work.”

Hearing this, Han Qian couldn't help laughing: "Why do we two want to go together? When I came back, my eldest brother asked me what to do, and I also said to go to the Buddhist hall to kneel and wait for my mother."

Wei Tiantian also laughed along with a 'puchi'.

The aunt and sister-in-law laughed for a while, Han Qianfang sighed leisurely, and said: "I never imagined that the family would be like this. At that time on the boat, my elder brother asked me if I regret it later, and I said no regrets , if I do it again, I will still choose to go to the disaster area... However, if I choose now, I'm afraid I won't be so willful."

Wei Tiantian patted Han Qian's hand, and said helplessly, "Don't be like this, no one is a god, and you can't predict the future. Fortunately, the eldest princess is holding on, otherwise, I might be the big sinner in this family."

"No, no, I don't blame you for this." Han Qian hurriedly held Wei Tiantian's hand, and sighed: "It's my fault, no wonder you are my sister. My sister is the person who understands my thoughts best in this world. In my heart, you are not only my sister-in-law, but also my own sister."

Wei Tiantian's heart was soured by these words, and he hurriedly smiled and said: "Look at the two of us, it's just a few homely gossips, and it makes you so sad! What are you trying to do!"

Han Qian also smiled shyly and bowed his head to eat the oranges.

Mrs. Gu brought people in, and seeing the two sisters-in-law sitting outside, she asked, "Is the Eldest Princess asleep?"

Both Wei Tiantian and Han Qian stood up, Wei Tiantian gave up his seat to Mrs. Gu, and asked with a smile, "I just fell asleep, what's the matter, sister-in-law?"

"I just sorted out my younger sister's dowry list, and the third grandma will help me to see if there is anything wrong. It will be an auspicious day in two days, so I can ask someone to prepare a car and send some things in advance Arrange it in the palace." Gu Shi said, and handed Wei Tiantian a big red account book in her hand.

Wei Tiantian took it over with a smile and looked at it for a while, then asked with a smile: "I don't know if the warehouse in the palace is big enough?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Gu laughed, and blinked at Han Qian with a pair of apricot eyes: "I have to ask my sister about this, but I have never even stepped into the door of the palace, and I don't know where the door of the inner storehouse faces."

"I don't know about that either." Han Qian smiled helplessly and shook his head, then suddenly changed the topic, "By the way, don't send all these things into the palace."

"Why? Do you think there is too much dowry?" Gu asked curiously.

"Haha... I don't mind too many." Han Qian shook his head with a smile, blinked at Mrs. Gu, and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid that I will be sent to the palace. I won't do anything if I want to. It’s convenient. It’s better to leave it at home and hand it over to my sisters-in-law. If I want to use silver or something in the future, it’s convenient to hold it.”

"Tsk tsk!" Mrs. Gu turned her head to look at Wei Tiantian, and said with a smile, "This man hasn't married yet, so he left a way out for himself. If His Majesty knows, I don't know how sad I am."

"That's what you said. But Qianqian's thinking is indeed right." Wei Tiantian sighed softly, and said to Gu Shi with a smile, "Why don't you think we paid more attention at that time? I brought everything here, and now it’s not so easy to get some private money.”
