Lin Weixi refused to answer to no avail, and returned to his room with a thick stack of gift slips.
The gift book is divided into two parts, one is the dowry from King Yan, and the other is the dowry prepared by Princess Shoukang. Perhaps it should be three copies, and the other is the reward for Lin Yong's canonization by the imperial court. Lin Yong passed away and the property was inherited by the only daughter Lin Weixi. These were originally hers. Neither King Yan nor the eldest princess Shoukang planned to let her use them.
The three gift booklets are stacked together, and the thickness is considerable. Lin Weixi picked up a copy and flipped through it.
What she drew was the dowry prepared by Princess Shoukang. Shoukang listed in the booklet very detailed, box and cage furniture, four seasons brocade, gold and silver utensils, from color to material to pattern are clearly recorded, and even the weight of the gold utensils are marked next to them. Obviously, Princess Shoukang was afraid that Lin Weixi would be cheated of her dowry in the future.
Lin Weixi followed the ranks, looking carefully and slowly. She saw a lot of familiar things on the list, including her mother Wei's dowry and hers from the past.
Also, the eldest princess Shoukang went for the dowry from the very beginning when she was preparing. Later, she was forced to come back from the British government. What's the use. These furniture and boxes were originally built to make red makeup for their daughter and granddaughter. These two people passed away one after another. The festive things that used to be piled up in the warehouse look sad. Princess Shoukang is old and she has nothing else. Younger generation, who else can I save it for? It's just a cheap clan mansion a hundred years later.
It was also destined in the dark, and Lin Weixi appeared soon after. As soon as Shoukang saw Lin Weixi, he felt a sense, that's right, that's it. Shoukang found his spiritual support at once, and he soon loved Lin Weixi as his own granddaughter.
Now Lin Weixi is going to get married, marry King Yan as the concubine, and go by the way to be Gao Ran's mother-in-law. The eldest princess Shoukang woke up several times in her sleep. In this case, there is nothing to say, Princess Shoukang is happy, she has to let Lin Weixi marry beautifully, and the marriage capital will be beyond the reach of the people in the capital within ten years.
The eldest princess Shoukang was worried that Lin Weixi was taboo, after all, there was a dowry from her predecessors. The female official beside Shoukang specially told Lin Weixi that all the gold and silver jewelry of Wei's and Gao Xi were melted and made new. The boxes, cages and boxes were all first-class good wood, and the wood was used for many years. The red paint must be repainted. The remaining china, incense burners, vases, etc., if you don't like it, you can replace it with new ones.
Of course, Lin Weixi felt that it didn't matter. The dowry was not a coffin. It was originally passed down from generation to generation, so there was nothing taboo. What's more, Lin Weixi didn't say a word, she was very willing to see her mother's relics again.
Princess Shoukang felt relieved when she saw that Lin Weixi had no grudges. Lin Weixi is now sitting in the floating boudoir, putting down the dowry list prepared by Shoukang and picking up another one.
This is Lin Yong's award, Lin Weixi has watched it countless times, and has long remembered it in his heart. In fact, not much of Lin Yong’s things can be realized. The imperial court only gave a few ingots of cash, with the words of the Supervision and Manufacturing Division branded on it. I dare not take it out to melt it. As for the imperial decree and the golden book and iron coupons, this is of no use other than for display.
In the final analysis, the real important thing in the legacy of the Zhongyonghou Mansion is the title deed. It is said that the splitting of the soil, the land and the farm, this is the foundation of a family. Of course, Lin Weixi didn't have a family, and King Yan didn't know what to do. She exchanged part of her land around the capital, and the rest was converted into fertile land and rich land. Only less than half of the land remained in her hometown, Shunde.
Lin Weixi silently praised King Yan for doing a good job. He can attack and retreat and defend. He usually uses the fertile fields around the capital to make money. In case of an accident, he can return to his ancestral home Shunde.
When Lin Weixi thought of King Yan, he instantly thought of the stupid thing he did the other day. She put down the list, her cheeks getting a little hot again.
Lin Weixi thought with hindsight that the betrothal gift was also delivered, and her marriage with King Yan was already done. In a few months, she will become the wife of the person who has always existed in the legend, and she grew up listening to the reputation of the other party
Lin Weixi was stunned for a while, feeling like stepping on a cloud, without the slightest sense of reality. She is going to be a wife again, this time is very different, what should she do if she is still unqualified? What's even worse is that she was the one who went to King Yan's study and brought it up.
She probably had water in her brain at the time, and she boiled it when she had a fever. What the hell did she do!
Lin Weixi was looking at the dowry list in the room, and the eldest princess Shoukang was also talking about it.
"Miss Lin looked very carefully. After watching it for a while, she became stunned."
After hearing this, Princess Shoukang smiled: "Maybe she was thinking about her father's land deed in a daze. In fact, just relying on the things left by Zhongyong Hou, Xi'er has enough food and clothing in her life, I just add to her. everyday utensils."
The female official smiled and said yes, but she thought of the darkness and conflict of the world. If Hou Zhongyong is still alive, of course, there is no problem. Even if the Lin family has an uncle and elder brother, it would be better, but Lin Weixi is the only girl left in the Lin family. If King Yan had not taken over Lin Weixi, these land deeds may not have been in Lin Weixi's hands, even if they were obtained. , it may not be a good thing for her.
But the female officer immediately thought of Lin Weixi's face, and her heart was relieved. Lin Weixi grew up like that, even if he didn't have a million family wealth, it was actually quite dangerous to live in the people. All beauty without self-protection power is a disaster, but now that King Yan is escorted, Lin Weixi will become Princess Yan in the future, which shows that Lin Weixi's beauty, life experience and inheritance are destined by God, she should have this fate .
The eldest princess Shoukang was still eager to choose a date. The female official was relieved to see Shoukang in high spirits. She smiled and said, "Princess is really in high spirits. I'm afraid that the princess herself fell down, and she didn't care so much."
As soon as the female official said it, she knew that she had said something wrong, and as expected, Princess Shoukang's expression darkened and she asked, "Is the concubine still living in the Wei Mansion?"
"Princess… "
"It's nothing." Shoukang sneered, "I'm not a bride, it's been so many years, who cares about him? I'm afraid he saw what I prepared for Sister Xi, and he was so impressed that he returned to the defense. The government is arrogant to Sun, protest with me."
The female official saw that Shoukang did not have any grief and sadness, so she felt relieved, and said: "After all, the concubine is connected with the Wei brothers. I heard that the Wei family had added children and grandchildren two days ago. It is normal for the concubine to go back to tease the grandnephew. There are still several young ladies who are going to get married in two years, and the wife of the former Wei family specially brought a few young ladies over to greet the princess, I am afraid that was the idea at that time."
"Heh." Shoukang thought it was funny, and she really laughed, "He complained that I had ruined his career, and he didn't return to the princess' mansion for many years. Our husband and wife are like strangers. It's my fault that Princess Shang hurt him to be unable to participate in politics. , I can understand his resentment, but since he doesn't want to admit my wife, then don't stare at the property of the Princess Mansion. While going home and complaining, he is still staring at my fief, and wants me to keep all my private property after my death. To the Wei family, it's ridiculous. How dare they?"
When it comes to Shoukang's housework, the female official didn't talk to her, she just said, "Princess, don't be angry, you still have Miss Xi."
When Shoukang heard Lin Weixi's name, he immediately turned his anger into joy: "Isn't it true, I still have sister Xi. Even the Ministry of Internal Affairs can't control who I love to give my things to. The more the Wei family behaves like this, the more I want it. Subsidize the private house to Sister Xi."
The days of preparing for marriage passed day by day, and the palace of Princess Shoukang was beating gongs and drums, making a lot of noise. The capital was severely bombed by King Yan's concubine, and now they are numb, and they all calmly watched the palace of King Yan and Princess Shoukang decorated with lights, ready to welcome the newcomer.
The discussion about Lin Weixi, the newly appointed Princess Yan, has never cooled down, but Lin Weixi herself has no idea about the excitement outside. She stays in the former courtyard of the Princess Mansion every day, and she is ready to stay at ease. marry. One day she also heard a movement, it seemed that the wife of the Wei family was coming. Lin Weixi knew the virtues of the Wei family. She originally planned to go out to see the Wei family, so as not to embarrass her grandmother, but she was stopped by the princess' mansion after only two steps. The female official beside Shoukang said with a smile, Lin Weixi is Princess Yan, so she doesn't need to disturb the cleanliness for outsiders, just prepare her dowry with peace of mind.
Since the eldest princess Shoukang didn't need her, Lin Weixi didn't have the kindness of her grandmother, and stayed in the room with peace of mind. The Wei family was very hostile to Lin Weixi who had seized their property, but they couldn't even see Lin Weixi's face. As for those sour words prepared in advance, naturally, they can only swallow them back into their stomachs and continue to sour their teeth.
Lin Weixi's world was quiet and peaceful, and Gao Ran couldn't sit still when he saw Princess Shoukang's astonishing battle that almost brought the whole princess' mansion over. She picked a day that wasn't too hot, ordered someone to set up a car, and returned to the British government with the imperial guard of honor.
The British lady-in-law was lying on her side on the Huanghuali Arhat bed, with the red pillow behind her back. The little maid held the beauty hammer and gently massaged the British lady's legs and feet. Gao Ran moved an embroidered pier and sat in front of Luohan's bed, frowning irritably, and talked to the British lady.
"You went out today and reported to your elders?"
A woman who leaves the cabinet must obtain the consent of her husband's family even if she returns to her mother's house. The British lady-in-law has nothing to do. She is worried that Gao Ran will be too diligent in returning to her mother's house and will be told by her husband's family.
Gao Ran said, "Don't worry, grandmother, my father is busy all day, and doesn't care much about the affairs of the house. The prince also takes special care of me. If I want to go out, I can set up my own car, and no one will gossip."
Only then did the British lady-in-law remember that Gao Ran had no mother-in-law or great mother-in-law on her head, and her actions were much more free than ordinary daughter-in-laws. The British lady-in-law sighed: "You will be the master of the family when you marry, and you don't have to be angry with your mother-in-law. Just because of this, I don't know how many women in the world envy you."
Gao Ran was also very satisfied with the early death of Gu Chengyao's mother. Isn't there a sentence before crossing, there is a car and a house, both parents are dead, although Gu Chengyao only lost his mother, but King Yan is not at home all the year round, and this sentence is no different. It's a pity that Gao Ran's unbridled married life will be discounted now.
The British lady-in-law obviously also thought of the Princess Yan who was about to enter the door. Obviously everything was going well, but suddenly there was an extra mother-in-law out of thin air. Of course, Gao Ran and the British government were not happy. However, when King Yan nodded, who would dare to talk too much
The British lady-in-law can only comfort: "It's okay, your new mother-in-law is not much different in age than you. She has been raised in the aunt's house in the countryside before, so she must be an ignorant straw bag. You let her first, and wait until everyone sees the two of you clearly. After the level of people is good and bad, the future will be better."
The idea of the British lady-in-law coincided with that of Gao Ran. Gao Ran also thought so. She let Lin Weixi go first, and after King Yan and the others could see Lin Weixi's true face clearly, Gao Ran would come out to turn the tide and clean up the mess. , isn't it just right? Maybe a push or two if necessary.
The British lady-in-law looked at Gao Ran's eyes and knew that she understood. Since Gao Ran knew what she knew, the British lady-in-law didn't go any further. Among her so many granddaughters, Gao Xi looked impersonal, but she was actually very benevolent and righteous. Only the three granddaughters had a soft smile and a soft voice, but they did not discriminate. Facts have proved that Gao Ran's character can become a big thing. Not only is he married with a good reputation, but he also wins the attention of his husband's family. I am afraid that he will be able to help his parents' family in the future.
The British lady-in-law was very satisfied in her heart. She even felt that forbearance and wickedness was not a big deal, and it was an advantage when used well. She took it for granted that although Gao Ran was vicious to others, the British government was her family's family, and she was definitely not on the list of "others".
