Xiaolan quickly put down the teapot in her hand and followed Xiaoyu.
"Mother is fine."
In the main house, Su Yuxin was listening to her mother's careful teachings at this time. The mother and daughter were very close to each other, as if they were talking about something private.
Su Qiao's lips curled up slightly.
This is still a daydream of being a queen.
Even her position as the Fourth Prince’s wife is in jeopardy.
When Mrs. Su saw her appear at the door, a trace of disgust flashed across her eyes, but she put on a gentle and kind smile: "Xiao Qiao is here, come and sit down, we were just talking about you."
"Speaking of me?"
Su Qiao walked over with a smile and sat down beside the couch.
"Is mother going to give me my mother's dowry?"
"The Emperor issued an edict yesterday and sent Eunuch Liu to deliver the order personally. Mother should have checked it by now, right?"
Mrs. Su didn't expect that she would talk about this right away. She was very angry, but she didn't show it on her face. "Ahem, Xiao Qiao, you are still young..."
Su Qiao knew she was still trying to delay, so she interrupted her bluntly, "Mother, the emperor said yesterday that I am not young anymore and it is time for me to get married. I should take care of my mother's dowry myself and should not cause any more trouble for you."
"His Royal Highness also said that if I couldn't take care of it myself, he would send someone to help me and take inventory at the same time."
It seems that her mother's dowry was really large. Even when the emperor stepped in, she still dared to procrastinate.
After hearing this, Su Yuxin couldn't help but interrupted angrily: "Mom, just give it back to her. It's as if we value her dowry."
Madam Su gave her a warning look: "Shut up."
Su Yuxin had learned a lot during this period of time. Knowing something was wrong, she quickly shut up.
"Xiao Qiao..."
Mrs. Su had just started to speak when she was interrupted by Su Qiao again.
"Mother, I know you don't think highly of my mother's dowry. The Xiangfu is a wealthy family, and my sister's dowry when she gets married must be much larger than mine."
"Of course, I earned it myself..." Su Yuxin was very proud. Just as she was about to say how much money she had earned outside, Madam Su pinched her in time.
Su Qiao glanced at the two of them and didn't care.
Mrs. Su thought about it, then quickly got up and went back to the house to get out a wooden box.
"Xiao Qiao, this is the dowry list. Everything is in the storeroom. Go check it with Nanny Wang and Nanny Lin. I have already told them. They are waiting for you outside the door."
Su Qiao took the box, opened it, picked up the long dowry list and took a look at it.
There are no changes or signs of tearing, so it should be fine.
He handed the box along with the dowry list to Xiaolan and said, "Go to the yard and bring the two aunts along with the two nurses."
The two aunts Su Qiao mentioned were the two embroiderers that Xi Hanzhou had sent to her before.
These two are not only clever and deft, but also great at embroidery. They also managed the Clothing Bureau when they were in the palace. They are very good in all aspects.
"yes."
Xiaolan took the box and left the main house, then quickly went back to call her two aunts.
*
Has the dowry issue been resolved? Su Qiao was no longer afraid that they would get angry and embarrassed.
She stood up and bowed to Madam Su leisurely: "Mother, sister, I would like to congratulate you first."
The two were stunned.
"Congratulations?"
Su Qiao blinked: "Don't mother and sister know yet?"
"The Emperor has granted marriage to the Fourth Prince and my sister today. The imperial edict should arrive at the mansion soon. I came here specifically to inform mother to set up the table and prepare to receive the imperial edict."
