Splendid Book

Chapter 106 is finally here
After Jiji, the days suddenly became tense, and when the royal dowry gift came, the whole Shen residence was shocked.Not to mention Shen's residence, even the people around were surprised when they saw the hustle and bustle of that day and the things being carried in like flowing water.

Even if the emperor's son married a wife, he had to follow the custom.It's just that compared to the bride price given to the two girls in front of the Shen family when they got married, this meeting really made everyone see it again.Silks and satins from the south of the Yangtze River, leather from outside the Great Wall, and all kinds of brocades and satins. There are more than a dozen large boxes for these silk fabrics alone. Moreover, these silk fabrics are all tributes. It came in handy.

As for white tea from Yunnan, brick tea from Tibet, abalone and sea cucumber from Fujian, and ginseng and antler from Changbai Mountain, these things are packed in boxes.

Not to mention other people, even Chunliu and Luwu, who have always felt well-informed, couldn't help but go to the yard where the dowry was held when they heard this.Almost all the maids in the mansion tried their best to pass by there, but Nie Qingsang saw that it was too unruly, so he asked them to disperse and was not allowed to go to that courtyard again.

Some of these betrothal gifts were naturally meant to be taken away by Shen Changle. As soon as these things were delivered, Nie Qingsang sent someone to carry these boxes to Shen Changle's yard.

When the box was opened in front of Shen Changle's eyes, she felt that the whole body was shone with golden light, and on the top layer of red cloth, there were many golden pigs, and they were all in pairs.When she thought that only the upper floor was covered, she discovered that there was another floor below. In the end, she discovered that there were five golden pigs in all.

And in the other box are the dragon and phoenix bracelets, each pair is inlaid with different gems, including rubies, topaz, sapphires, tourmalines, emeralds, and even beeswax.

As for a whole box of high-quality South Sea pearls, when it appeared in front of her, even Shen Changle felt his heartbeat suddenly stop at this moment, the snow-white pearls, each one was round and smooth, about the same size.

Chunliu and Luwu had been thinking about sneaking over to take a look at it before, but now that the thing was in front of them, they were all dumbfounded, unable to speak for a long while.

It was Shen Changle who came back to his senses first, smiled and kicked the mahogany box by his feet, even this box was made of high-quality wood, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and take inventory of things, and put them away."

The four big maids did it themselves, and even the second-class maids didn't have a chance to intervene.After they put away all their things in fear and registered them in the register, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Changle looked at their appearance, and said with a joke: "Where did you get until now, did you scare you like this?"

Although Shen Changle also lived a wealthy life on weekdays, but the food and clothing are all used by the family, and the things in the storeroom are more silk and satin, unlike today, a whole box of gold is in front of you, and you are stunned. I can't even move my eyes.

Everyone said that it is good to be a princess, but the maids in the past only thought that it was because the future son-in-law was so handsome, so it was better to be a princess.This meeting saw the wealth and honor inside, but everyone was really dumbfounded.

Shen Changle's dowry was naturally arranged in full swing, 160 eight lifts, which is the highest among the dowry specifications.Fortunately, Shen Changle is the future Concubine Zhao, so such a specification is not beyond the limit.

The most important thing is the farm shop and so on, and she keeps the house deed and land deed close to her.And before she got married, Shen Lingcheng also called the three siblings together to discuss Zhang Rong's dowry.After Zhang Rong's death, the Jining Hou Mansion naturally did not ask for her dowry, but let Shen Lingcheng take charge of it. In the future, when the three children got married and established businesses, they divided it among them.

When Shen Ruhui got married, the dowry for Nie's family was given to the public account of Duke Wei's mansion, so naturally Zhang Rong's dowry was not involved.

But Shen Changle is going to get married now, but it's different.So Shen Lingcheng called the three of them over to share the dowry.Zhang Rong's dowry was very rich. The dowry given to her by the Duke of Wei was about [-] taels, and the dowry given to her by the Marquis of Jining was also worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, but these were the total value.If it is specific to dowry, it is divided into land property, real estate, and shop.

There are five shops under Zhang Rong's name, including a silk shop, a shop specializing in pens, inks, paper and inkstones, and a shop that sells imported products, and the profits are very rich.So over the years, her dowry not only did not decrease, but increased instead.As for the land, there are even more. There are more than 1000 mu of paddy fields alone, and there are stretches of dry fields, as well as two villages, one of which is connected to a small forest.

There are also dividends from several transactions, and the cash earned over the years was used by Shen Lingcheng to invest in the shop.With such a huge profit, the dowry left by Zhang Rong is very huge.

Shen Lingcheng didn't consider his daughter-in-law an outsider, so he called her along.That is, I want to divide things up in front of all of them, so as not to cause any trouble for money in the future.

After listening to Shen Lingcheng, the three brothers and sisters did not speak.

"Ruhui, you are the eldest brother, and you will also be in charge of this family in the future. Tell me, how to divide it," Shen Lingcheng turned to look at the eldest son.

Shen Ruhui was not surprised at all, but he is a scholar and not very proficient in general affairs.He is not that keen on money, so after listening to it, he immediately said: "Father, you also said that the son will inherit the Duke of Wei's mansion in the future, so how can the son claim the mother's inheritance. So let the second brother And Changle and the two should be separated."

When Shen Rufan heard this, he immediately became unwilling. This elder brother is a high-spirited man, but he is not a villain either.

He immediately said: "Father, our Changle is going to marry into the royal family. It is said that money can turn ghosts, so I think it's better to let Changle take all these things, and let her stand up straight. No one can be bullied."

Although Shen Changle was touched, but the second elder brother was too crowed.She wasn't married yet, so he was thinking about how others bullied her.

So she also said immediately: "I don't want it either, my dowry is already generous enough, besides, I have given so many dowry gifts today. Brothers are men, especially the second brother, who spends money lavishly, daddy, You can give the second brother more money in the future."

"Little girl, I'm not that poor," Shen Ruan immediately pressed her on the head, and said bitterly.

Shen Lingcheng was not annoyed when he saw their brothers and sisters fighting while talking, but turned to look at Nie Qingsang, and asked, "Qingsang, tell me what to do?"

When Nie Qingsang heard that it was about the dowry of the deceased mother-in-law, she made up her mind not to speak.But who knows that the father-in-law chose her own name, and she immediately said: "My daughter-in-law thinks what the husband said is reasonable, so the daughter-in-law agrees with what the husband said."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Ruhui looked at her quite moved.Ever since they got married, Nie Qingsang's actions and actions have been extremely pleasing to Shen Ruhui. Besides, he is a slow person, and his relationship needs to be cultivated step by step, so the later the relationship between the two of them is, the more mellow it is. .

Shen Lingcheng knew that the brothers and sisters would definitely not be able to negotiate a result, so he expressed his thoughts.He said: "Since it belongs to your mother, everyone should have a share. Besides, this is what your grandfather and grandmother meant."

As soon as the three brothers and sisters heard it, they knew that Shen Lingcheng didn't come to discuss with them, but probably just to inform them.

"I thought about it for a while, and I plan to divide it like this. As for the two of you, each of you will get [-]% and Changle will get [-]%. As for things, there are shops and land, so I plan to leave jewelry and other things to Changle, and give her two more. A shop, a farm. As for the dividends from those transactions, I think it’s best to leave it to Ruan,” Shen Lingcheng said roughly.

When everyone heard his allocation, they naturally felt that it was reasonable.Only Shen Changle frowned, and said in a low voice: "I really don't want that much..."

As a result, before she could finish her sentence, Shen Rufan turned her head and glared at her, and lightly reprimanded: "I'll take it for you, why are there so many nonsense."

When he said this, Shen Changle immediately shut up in anger.

But Shen Ruhui also nodded and said, "You are a girl, you are not afraid of too much money."

Even the old-fashioned big brother has said such things, what else can Shen Changle say.

And Shen Lingcheng's distribution of the dowry was even more quickly covered up, anyway, before Shen Changle got married, everything had been properly distributed.

On the tenth day of the seventh lunar month, Shen Changle was dug out of the bed when it was still daylight.Fortunately, no one came yet, so Chunliu hurriedly asked the little maid to wait for her to wash, and after she washed, she brought in some snacks.Chunliu said mysteriously: "Auntie told the servant that there is no chance to eat today, so the servant must seize every opportunity to let the girl eat."

When she said big aunt, Shen Changle didn't realize who it was for a moment, but after eating a piece of mung bean cake, she came back to her senses, it's not about big sister.

When she ate a few pieces of cakes and filled her stomach, Mrs. Quan Fu, who was invited by Mrs. Shen herself, entered the yard.After Chunliu presented the two big red seals with both hands, Mrs. Quanfu entered the room.

As soon as she saw Shen Changle, Mrs. Quan Fu immediately laughed and praised: "It's not the first time for me to be Quan Fu, and I have seen brides many times, but I have never seen a girl who is more beautiful than yours. A good-looking child. One look is a blessing."

Nie Qingsang and Mrs. Zhao stood aside a long time ago, and they quickly replied with a smile, I accept your good words.

Shen Changle had also seen the appearance of Shen Hui and Shen Lan when they got married before. Anyway, they were all turned into dough-like people, so I don't know why so much gouache was applied.Just as she was thinking about it, Mrs. Quanfu beside her had already started to do it.

She had heard from Shen Hui that the twisting of noodles was extremely painful, but she didn't expect it to be this painful.Speaking of which, she was married in her previous life, but when she remarried in this life, she always felt that everything was fresh, and when she recalled the scene of her previous life, her memory seemed to be blurred.That dim memory also slowly faded from her mind, becoming an existence not worth mentioning.

When dressing up, Shen Changle tried her best to close her eyes, but when she opened them, she was still startled by the person in the mirror.

And her yard is even more coming and going, it feels like it's full of people, and it's all a bunch of nonsense to explain the little maid's quietness and orderliness on weekdays.Shen Changle is also like a wooden man, letting others lead him to do this and that.

I don't know how long it took, and suddenly I heard a servant girl yelling into the room, "The person who picks up the bride is here."

Shen Changle grabbed the Xipa in his hand, feeling like his heart was about to jump out.

he came.
