"Why don't you dare to accept it?" Dongfang Jing pulled the corners of her lips, "I asked you for this specially! According to my father's stingy temperament, at most two boxes of cloth can be brought here, so it won't be such a big deal!"
"I know how my sister helped me. I am grateful, but..." Rong Yingying frowned, "But this is the dowry of your second mother, Tao Peiyao. Tao Peiyao's father, Tao Tianming, is the richest man in the capital. How dare I Take it?! If Tao Tianming wants to touch me, I'm afraid I'll die in minutes!"
"Don't be afraid." Dongfang Jing smiled, squeezed her hands, and said warmly, "Since I help you in front of my father, I will never let you suffer. Since I have already given this betrothal gift, If Tao Shi snatched it from her hands, there is absolutely no reason for her to take it back!"
"Sister Wanyun, I know you have a good heart. You are afraid that I will be bullied after I marry into the prime minister's mansion, and you want to help me gain prestige first, but you are only a girl after all. If you offend Tao Tianming because of me, I will be ashamed for the rest of my life if I caused death." Rong Yingying looked worried, as if Tao Tianming would lead someone to take Dongfang Jing's life soon.
Dongfang Jing stroked her long hair and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, he can't touch me, and he can't touch you either."
"Huh?" Rong Yingying frowned, feeling heavy.
Dongfang Jing glanced at the box of betrothal gifts, carefully opened the box, and then took out the purple jade hairpin from her sleeve and put it inside.
"Sister Wanyun, you are..." Rong Yingying hesitated to speak. She was young and inexperienced, so naturally she couldn't recognize the purple jade hairpin.
Dongfang Jing said, "I think this purple jade hairpin looks good, so I'll give it to you too. But you have to remember, this purple jade hairpin must be placed in this box of betrothal gifts!"
"Huh?" Rong Yingying became more and more puzzled.
"Don't ask why." Dongfang Jing smiled, "You will get married the day after tomorrow, so you will know the reason."
Rong Yingying nodded thoughtfully.
Dongfang Jing asked again, "I have something to remind you."
"Sister Wanyun, please tell me." Rong Yingying said respectfully.
Dongfang Jing said, "You were raised in a deep boudoir, and you don't know the ways of the world outside, and you certainly don't know my father. My father is a very stingy person, and he made a generous move this time because he knows that the Fuguo government doesn't care about it." Xiaoqian, your dowry will definitely exceed this box of betrothal gifts... "
"Yeah! Yingying understands!" Dongfang Jing finished speaking halfway, and Rong Yingying nodded again and again, "When grandma saw this box of betrothal gifts, she was very satisfied, and she didn't even think about earning more money from the prime minister. On the day I get married, this box of betrothal gifts will definitely be placed in the dowry and brought back to the prime minister's residence together! Sister Wan Yun, don't worry."
"This is the best." Dongfang Jing nodded with satisfaction.
Rong Yingying was still a little uneasy, "I was thinking, when these things are brought back to the prime minister's mansion, I will find a chance to tell your father and ask him to return this box of betrothal gifts to Tao Peiyao, so that the Tao family will not trouble us!"
"No need." Dongfang Jing smiled, her tone paused, and there was something in her words, "At that time... there is no need to return it."
"Huh? Why?! Even if Tao Peiyao doesn't care about the money, she also cares about the tone?" Rong Yingying looked at Dongfang Jing in confusion.
Dongfang Jing narrowed her eyes slyly, "Because by then... no one will vent her anger."
