good wife

Chapter 212
When Gu Shi heard it, she was right!After all, with my own brother and nephew, how can I really make my sister-in-law feel wronged?
Seeing that Gu's expression relaxed, Jingyi said again: "Mother, don't think too much, the princess's car must be driving slowly, and when I get married, I'm afraid they may not be able to reach northern Xinjiang If mother is not at ease, send someone to send a letter to the past, or it will be over."

Mrs. Gu nodded, "When I turn around, I will write a letter to your aunt. Speaking of which, since your aunt married your uncle, she has rarely lived a stable life. In the past few years in the capital, she reluctantly said In the past! Now that your cousin has become the eldest wife of the British government, and there are only three marriages left, your aunt is much more at ease."

Jingyi clenched empty fists with both hands and lightly thumped Gu's shoulder, "Mother, why don't you see grandfather and father?"

"They are in the study outside. They got the letter earlier than us. Your grandfather is also very happy these past two days. These days, King Ping comes to the mansion from time to time to coax your grandfather. It's like something." ?”

Jingyi smiled and said, "Would someone like him make the elderly happy?"

Mrs. Gu patted her hand and motioned her to sit beside her, "Yiyi, I think this Prince Ping is not bad! He should be a responsible man! Your father thinks highly of him!"

Jingyi smiled and said: "Father has a high opinion of all those who have fought in war."

This sentence amused Mrs. Gu, and she nodded her head and said, "That's right! Your father's favorite thing to do in this life is to go to the battlefield to fight!"

The two were enjoying themselves when they saw Su Ming striding in and saluted, "Greetings to mother!"

Gu smiled and asked, "What's the matter? But it came out?"

Su Ming smiled and said: "Yes! I heard that it was carried out from the palace. It seems that this betrothal gift should be prepared by Concubine Shu."

"Oh?" Gu said a little puzzled, "Shouldn't these things be handled by the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

Su Mingdao: "Mother is right. However, I heard that when King Ming got married, it was also arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the queen put a lot of money in it. I think it was to make King Ming different from others. some."

Mrs. Gu nodded, "You mean, Concubine Shu also added money to it?"

"It should be. The son is just hearsay, and there are countless things. The prince's big wedding is custom-made in the palace. If it exceeds, it is naturally the concubine Shu who paid the money. If not, it is just according to the order. The customization is gone."

Mrs. Gu nodded, and said: "Speaking of which, it's normal for Concubine Shu to add money. After all, she only has Prince Ping as her adopted son. In the future, she still has to count on him."

Jingyi was silent.Concubine Shu?This guy looks pretty good!At least when I met her in Qinzheng Hall that day, she kept talking to Yuanxi.Just looking at her appearance, she is indeed in poor health. No wonder the emperor ordered her to rest alone, and no one else was allowed to disturb her.

It's just that she has fallen out of favor, but she can still get such care from the emperor. Is it just because she looks too much like the deceased Concubine Li?Jingyi slightly shook her head, the most ruthless emperor's family!If the emperor really had such an infatuation, he would not have married so many concubines back then, and only made that concubine Li sad.On the other hand, if it wasn't for the emperor's guilt towards Concubine Li, so that he only favored Concubine Li, Concubine Li might not be so young and die young.

Here Jingyi was in a trance, and heard someone report that the Ministry of Internal Affairs had sent someone to carry the betrothal gift to the gate of the mansion.

Everyone greeted them personally, and they had already entered the middle gate over there.The old man and Su Wei also arrived together.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs handed over the gift list, sat down for a while, drank a cup of tea, and ordered someone to carry the return gift that Mrs. Gu had prepared earlier in the morning, and then left.

After Su Wei read the gift list, he sighed: "Unexpectedly, King Ping is such a big hand!"

Haitang counted the boxes and said with a smile, "Oh my God! Miss, there are more than 20 boxes!"

Nanny Liu smiled and said, "Look, there is a pair of such beautiful sika deer and a pair of live geese!"

Gu Shi was already smiling from ear to ear. "Good! Good! It seems that King Ping still cares about our Yiyi."

Jingyi blushed at what Gu said.Just as he was about to speak, he heard the report from the porter that King Ping had sent someone.

Everyone was a little puzzled, didn't the talent from the Ministry of Internal Affairs leave just now?Why did you send someone here again?
Just thinking about it, on the first day of the junior high school, I brought people and carried the box to the flower hall.

After Chu and his party passed the ceremony, they said loudly: "These little things are given by my master to enjoy with the princess. The master has confessed that these things are not counted as dowry gifts, and secondly, there is no need to return gifts. Thirdly, the princess will dispose of them herself."

After finishing speaking, he handed over the gift list and ordered people to open all the boxes and cages.

The two maidservants brought a small box to Su Jingyi and opened it. The opening stunned everyone present!
I saw that there was a whole set of Fengguanxiapei inside!The two maidservants first took out the phoenix crown worn by the bride, and saw that round and plump large pearls were used on the front edge, while there were one-foot-long golden tassels hanging down on both sides. The entire phoenix crown was Made of gold and silver, apart from the pearls on the forefront, there are no less than a dozen rubies inlaid on the phoenix crown!But Haitang elaborated, and exclaimed: "Miss! There are actually eighteen rubies inlaid on it, nine on each side, which means taking ninety-nine into one!"

Jingyi still looked at the phoenix crown and did not move. Another maid took out the collar that the bride must wear when she gets married, the Tianguan lock, which is also made of red gold!
Gu Shi on the side sighed: "Prince Ping, you are too thoughtful, right?"

After the two maidservants took out the phoenix crown and the Tianguan lock, another two maidservants came up, and one of them held up the bright red wedding dress, which was decorated with countless pearls and gemstones!The peony picture embroidered above, the stamens are all embroidered with gold thread!The whole set of wedding dress looks extremely luxurious, with extravagance, luxury and magnificence!The other maid held up a pair of red embroidered shoes with butterflies and peonies embroidered on them.Pearls and precious stones were also dotted on the upper of the shoe.The cost of this pair of shoes alone should be really high, Jing Yi secretly estimated in her heart, at least more than 500 taels of silver.

Jingyi glanced at the full set of wedding dresses held by the four maidservants one by one, and looked at the first day of the junior high school.

On the first day of the lunar new year, he said with a smile: "The master also confessed that you can reward others with other things, but this wedding dress is what he got after a lot of hard work. I only hope that you must wear it when you get married!" After finishing speaking, he smiled. Looking at a young servant next to him, he took a small box from his hand and held it in front of Jingyi with his own hands.
