Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 62 Dowry
Of course, these are jokes, no one takes it seriously.

No wonder she always felt that the second wife cared too much for Wei Mingrou. When Xi'er said this, Concubine Ming was not surprised.

This can also explain the fact that she fell off the cliff before, and the second wife tried her best to encourage Su Shi to let Wei Mingrou marry instead. She really loves Wei Mingrou, but the pain returns to the pain. A grievance, forcing her to compromise is too much.

Moreover, although there is no evidence for the falling off the cliff, it is basically certain that Wei Mingrou was the cause. The second wife loves her so much, there is no guarantee that she is not an accomplice.

Ming concubine was distracted, while Xi'er was complaining, and said distressedly, "Young lady and the fourth prince have been engaged for more than ten years, Madam prepared two rooms for the girl as a dowry, and they are all the best things, all given to the fourth prince concubine, now When it's the girl's turn to get married, she has nothing left."

If there is a daughter in the family, they have been adding things since they were young. Ming concubine fell into the water when she was a child, and her head is not bright. Although there is an imperial decree to marry her, Su knows that she is destined not to be favored, so she prepares more for her as a dowry to ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life. .

Wei Mingrou and Ming concubine are biological sisters, if there are concubines, Wei Mingrou naturally cannot have less, as many concubines as there are, there will be as many Wei Mingrou.

After Ming concubine's accident, everyone in the Hou family concluded that she and Xi'er were in danger, and there was no possibility of them surviving. The Su family only had two daughters, and there was little hope of finding the lost young master. The one who married Ming Concubine was given all the dowry to Wei Mingrou.

She was married with red makeup, and she got married in a splendid manner. I don't know how many people have envied her. At that time, Xi'er and Ming concubine were suffering under the cliff. Thinking of it, Xi'er felt that God was too unfair to her girl.

The more she knew, the more Ming concubine felt that Wei Mingrou was not simple.

After walking a lot during the day, coupled with the destruction of medicinal materials, Ming concubine was in a bad mood, so she only read a few pages of medical books at night before going to bed to rest.

The next day, the sun was shining, the sky was blue and cloudless.

In the garden, there are clusters of flowers, and the begonias are beautiful and elegant, demure like a lady, charming and moving, with a faint fragrance.

A few butterflies shuttled among them, the colors were colorful, the patterns on the wings were staggered, noble and dignified, and the various colors were dazzling.

Xi'er took the round fan to flutter the butterflies, and Ming Concubine stood quietly at the side. Although she is only 15 years old now, as old as Jin, she is not that young after all. Let her jump up and down happily. If you can't do it, just take a look at what a little friend like Pu Die does.

Xi'er caught a butterfly, turned around and saw Ming concubine touching the petals of the peony, with a puzzled expression on her face, she let the butterfly go, and said, "Girl, are you unhappy?"

"I'm not unhappy," Ming concubine smiled peacefully.

She also said no, she used to like fluttering butterflies the most, but now she seemed to be sinking, and the butterflies flew past her, and she didn't even bother to raise her hand, so Xi'er said, "Miss Wu and the others are going out shopping today. We should go together, even if we don’t buy anything, it’s good to relax..."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a bang.

Xi'er looked over there, and saw Wei Mingyi scolded, "You don't have eyes!"

The servant girl knelt down with a plop, and said, "The servant girl was distracted for a moment and didn't see Miss Wu, so please calm down."

Wei Ming kicked the broken peony away with his foot, and cursed, "What a bad luck! Go get twenty big boards!"

The servant girl's face turned pale, and she repeatedly admitted her mistake.

Ming concubine frowned, walked over and said, "Didn't my fifth sister go to the street to buy jade bracelets? Why did you come back so early? The servant girl accidentally made a mistake, and it's too serious to blame the twenties."

Twenty big boards, it's a little harder to start, and the maid has no money to buy good medicine, so she needs to be raised in bed for ten days and a half months to get well.

Wei Mingyi got angry and spoke aggressively, "Big sister is really kind-hearted, she begged for a servant girl!"

Ming concubine helped the servant girl up, and said, "Fifth sister came over in a rage, and the servant girl didn't have time to dodge, I could see it, if because of ruining this pot of peony flowers, the maid will be punished with a staff of [-], fifth sister and five boards You can't run away anyway."

Wei Mingyi wanted to bite someone angrily.

Xie Wanhua saw her face full of anger, and then saw Ming Concubine's face was calm, took a step forward, and said, "Okay, okay, Fifth Younger Sister is in a bad mood, so don't say a few words."

Ming concubine looked at the servant girl and said, "It's all right, let's go down."

The servant girl's eyes were red, and she squatted on the ground to clean up the broken flower pots and the distressed peonies.

Wei Mingyi stamped his feet and walked away.

Ming Concubine asked, "Is this because you haven't picked a jade bracelet you're satisfied with?"

Wei Mingqi sighed and said, "It's much more serious than not finding a satisfactory jade bracelet."

Wei Mingyi's white jade bracelet is now in the old lady's place. She is depressed. The fourth wife loves her and gives her 500 taels, asking her to go to the street to pick one she likes. A crystal clear, warm and elegant mutton fat jade bracelet is even better than the one at the old lady's, but it is expensive at 600 taels.

Wei Ming didn't bring enough money, so he borrowed 100 taels from Xie Wanhua and bought that mutton fat jade bracelet, she couldn't put it down.

When going to another street in a carriage, she did not forget to appreciate it in the carriage, but bumped into the carriage of Cheng Guogong's mansion. She was holding a jade bracelet in her hand at the time. The jade bracelet flew forward, rolled down from the carriage, and shattered into several petals.

It hurts to think about it, the jade bracelet is broken, at least it can be polished into small jade beads and inlaid on jewelry, but the driver was a step too slow, a little beggar came over, picked up the broken jade bracelet and ran away.

The mutton fat jade bracelet is gone, and there is a foreign debt of 100 taels. Can Wei Mingyi not be angry?

In a fit of anger, she quarreled with the girl from Cheng Guogong's mansion, and asked her to pay for it, but she was scolded, and she was ashamed to ask her to pay 600 taels for a jade bracelet worth dozens of taels of silver. Is there any law?

Although Dingbeihou's mansion is deeply favored by the emperor, it can't rashly make a grudge with a girl from Yiguo's mansion. No one wants to be hit by a carriage. If he couldn't catch the jade bracelet and broke it, Wei Mingyi himself should bear half of the responsibility. Both Wei Mingqi and Xie Wanhua advised her to forget it.

If something happened, anyone who was still in the mood to hang out would go back home.

Ming concubine listened to what happened, and thought of Wei Mingyi's eyes just now, a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "So, you hated me again?"

Xie Wanhua looked at Ming concubine sympathetically, not just hating, but adding hatred to hate, Bai Yubracelet's anger had not dissipated, the maid hit Wei Mingyi's muzzle, she used the maid to vent her anger, and the eldest cousin even helped the maid, wanting to beat her She's the boss, I'm afraid he wants to bite her to death right now.

Standing aside, Wei Mingqi thought to herself that the second aunt should be the happiest, but she couldn't understand why the second aunt would target the elder sister and frame her. As far as she knew, they had no enmity.

"By the way, has Second Aunt come back from the palace?"

"not yet."

As soon as Ming concubine finished speaking, a maid in a light pink dress came over quickly and said, "Miss, the second wife is back, I want you to go to Changhui Courtyard."
