Mrs. Liu glared at her, snorted, and said sourly: "What's the matter? Do you think the houses and shops that your parents gave you are worthless and look down upon? Mother knows, compared with your daily money-making business , It’s not worth mentioning at all! Now that you are capable, your wings are hardened, and you can earn money yourself, you will look down on the dowry that your father and I bought... "
As she spoke, her heart felt sour, her eyes turned red, and Liu Shi turned around, facing away from everyone. Seeing that her mother made a serious kiss, Xiaocao immediately panicked and ran over in a hurry, apologizing, repenting, acting coquettishly and cute, finally coaxing him over. Liu Shi also couldn't help making excuses because her beloved little daughter was about to leave the family, and she felt sad.
I remembered when my little daughter was just born, a small and skinny one, making immature voices like a cat. When she was young, the youngest daughter was weak and sick, and almost couldn't make it through several times. The family put in so much effort to withstand the pressure of Mrs. Zhang and save the little girl's life. In a blink of an eye, that weak medicine jar grew into a slim and beautiful girl, cheerful, optimistic, and capable... But, this little girl who is held in the palm of her family will become someone else's daughter-in-law the day after tomorrow. How can she be a mother? Can you not get lost? Not upset
The youngest daughter has done so much for the family. Before she got married, as a mother, she wanted to do more for her and send more dowry. She didn't appreciate it, and always pushed out what the family prepared for her. What? Leave it to the elder brother and leave it to the younger brother. Such a sensible little daughter is about to get married, woo woo woo... It makes me sad just thinking about it. My dear girl, it's not that I lost my temper at you, I just couldn't control myself!
Mrs. Fang saw the couple worrying about the pile of dowry, and thought of an idea: "Anyway, we are hurting our daughter, not to save face. How about this? The dowry is still carried at one hundred and twenty-eight, and the dowry will be added today." Put them all in. The dowry that was vacated will be sent over secretly at night after the dowry is done showing up tomorrow. I also make two copies of the dowry list, one for the dowry tomorrow and the real one."
Mrs. Liu was very satisfied after hearing this, and nodded again and again: "Sister Xia, thank you for coming up with such a good idea. I'm going to reorganize the dowry now, Shitou, you follow, the dowry list needs to be transcribed by you, a future Jinshi Woolen cloth!"
have to! After nine days of exams, Xiao Shitou, who didn't even bother to take a sip of water after he came out, started helping his father and brother entertain guests.

This kind of dowry is definitely on the top of Daming's list. Yu's mansion is not too far from Xu Wang's mansion, the Yu family purposely made the dowry bearer take a long way, and walked around the west city. Even so, the dowry in the front was carried into Prince Xu's Mansion, but the dowry in the back has not been carried out of Yu's House yet. This dowry surpassed the grand occasion of Prince Jing marrying his daughter ten years ago, and set a new record for accompanying dowry.
In the next few decades, when they saw the wedding procession, people in Beijing couldn't help but think of the grand occasion of Princess Xu's dowry before she got married. The word "ten miles of red makeup" is no longer enough to describe it. Some people envy the wealth of the Yu family, and the willingness of the Yu family. Some people said that the Yu family slapped their faces swollen to pretend to be fat, in order to please Xu Wang, his big backer. How could they feel the Yu family's deep reluctance for their daughter and their deep love for her
The dowry was sent to Prince Xu's Mansion, and the entire backyard and front yard were packed to the brim. Those who came to see the make-up were all relatives and friends of Prince Jing's Mansion and Prince Xu, and their statuses were all high. Even if they claimed to have seen a big scene, they couldn't help being dumbfounded when they saw such a generous dowry.
Zhu Junyang's good friend bravely teased him: "You have found a treasure! You have to be nicer to your future wife, see how much her mother's family treats her daughter's treasure. If you treat the bride badly, her mother's family will I can't come here and fight you hard!"
"Stop talking sour words! How could he be willing to treat his daughter-in-law badly? You haven't seen him give Princess Jin'an to the baby. You can't wait to put it on your head and keep it in your mouth! You just see the richness of the dowry. Seeing that he gave away most of his net worth as a dowry gift. If possible, he would like to pack himself up and send it to Princess Jin'an!" The guy who spoke was Ma Ying-jeou, he had witnessed the nature of this guy's wife-slave of.
No matter how his friends hurt him, Zhu Junyang grinned foolishly with his mouth wide open. That blissful and silly look refreshed others' perception of him. It turns out that the "cold-faced prince" sometimes turns into soft fingers! Princess Jin'an's good tricks are able to subdue such a big evil star and big devil!
Zhu Junyang looked at the raising of the dowry, but thought in his heart that the little girl would truly belong to him tomorrow, and his heart was full. I haven't seen each other three days before the wedding, and I think her heart is constantly fermenting. Wait patiently for another day, and he will have her completely! His wife, his concubine, the person who has been hand in hand with him all his life...
The night before the wedding, Mrs. Liu slept in the same room with her daughter and talked a lot, some about recalling the past, some about teaching her daughter what to do as a man, wife and daughter-in-law, and even vaguely talking about the festivities in the bridal chamber on the wedding night. The ancients were more reserved, Liu just let her daughter cooperate with her husband, don't get used to him hurting herself, or something!
As a Yu Xiaocao who has lived in modern times for nearly thirty years and has read a lot of pornography and shameless cartoons, even though she was still an old maid on the day when the accident happened, she was very concerned about the things between men and women. Not so strange. If she is really an authentic ancient lady, according to Liu's implicit statement, she must be in a daze.
The mother and daughter fell asleep at some point, and Xiaocao was tossed up before dawn. In a daze, he was stuffed into the bathtub to wash off, and he rubbed fragrant body lotion all over his body. He was pushed to the dressing table again, and the invited lady Quanfu cleaned her face with cotton thread.
Mrs. Quanfu looked at Xiaocao's white and tender skin like a shelled egg, and praised repeatedly: "Look at this skin, it can be broken by blowing bombs, and you can't even find a single hair. This old man has combed and over-dressed so many ladies. It's the first time I've seen such a tender face!"
As he spoke, he only symbolically scraped Xiaocao's face a few times with cotton thread, then picked up duck egg powder, and poured a thick foundation on her, adding bright red mouth and thick black eyebrows, that It feels like the makeup of an island country geisha, which is really unflattering. Even the maids around Xiaocao couldn't stand it anymore—is this called makeup? It's obviously disfigured! The maids Wutong and Yingchun hesitated to speak.
