After the meal, those relatives who were out of reach had to say goodbye anyway, leaving only a lot of gifts.
Ning Yujin asked some accountants that Murong Xuan left behind for her, and asked them to register and sort out the list of gifts and hand over a general list to her.
It was obvious that when she said this, the eldest lady's expression changed and she fell even further.
Ning Zhongqin and Ning Yuanzhou were going to deliver the sedan together tomorrow, so they stayed to rest in the mansion. Ning Zhongjian had someone take them to the side room.
The rest of the people also dispersed, leaving only Ning Zhongjian, the eldest lady and Ning Yujin in the room.
Ning Yujin stopped looking at Ning Yuning when she left. The eyes that fell on her were full of hatred and resentment. Anyway, she didn't owe her anything.
She was the one who directed the private correspondence, but she also ended it. Yu Zhenji never came to Quan Ningbo's house after that visit. This was her last act of mercy.
When she moves to Prince Ding's Mansion tomorrow, everything in this mansion will return to dust and dust to dust.
After everyone left, Ning Zhongjian sent all the maids out, and then took Ning Yujin and talked to her about her childhood, as if he wanted to have a father-daughter relationship.
But she had stayed in this house for almost fourteen years, and Ning Zhongjian could count only a handful of scenes. Ning Yujin couldn't help but remind him many times that those who played on his lap were sick.
It has always been Ning Yuyan and Ning Yuning's prerogative to hug someone and refuse to let go, and she has never done it once.
He thought it was impossible for her to remember those things from her childhood, but it happened that she, Ning Yujin, had a good memory and had been aware of the world since she was born. She remembered how she got through these years better than anyone else.
But she was still grateful to Ning Zhongjian. At least when she was ten years old, he didn't really let her starve to death, and he also gave her the fragrant moon, Xiangqiao, and the shelter of Quan Ningbo Mansion.
So she didn't interrupt him, but listened carefully, as if those things really happened between the two of them.
After talking for a while, Ning Zhongjian stretched out his hand to touch her and nodded, sighing: "Third girl, when you go there in the future, you have to take good care of yourself and take good care of yourself. Don't let us worry about it anymore."
Ning Yujin lowered her head and said with emotion: "My daughter will obey her father's orders."
Such a harmonious scene of fatherly kindness and filial piety, such a beautiful moment of deep family affection, no matter how much pretense there is, Ning Yujin is still happy in her heart.
But this happiness barely lasted for less than a second before it was interrupted by the eldest lady.
She almost couldn't wait to speak and said: "Third girl, then you go over tomorrow and order the royal palace's betrothal gift and other accompanying gifts..."
Ning Yujin turned her head to look at the eldest lady, her mouth curved and her eyes smiled: "Of course those things are left in the house."
There was a hint of joy on the eldest lady's face, and she couldn't wait to confirm: "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Ning Yujin nodded and said it very seriously.
The eldest lady immediately neither sat nor stood, she was so happy that she had obviously lost her composure.
However, Ning Yujin poured cold water on her very rudely at this time: "Those things should be placed in the palace first, and then they will be moved back to the palace on the day of marriage."
"What?" The eldest lady fell down on her chair and looked at Ning Yujin in disbelief.
Ning Yujin looked at Ning Zhongjian and asked him: "Father, what do you think?"
Ning Zhongjian is not ignorant. Even though he doesn't take care of things on weekdays, he is still not confused about this important matter: "Those things will naturally be brought back to Prince Ding's Mansion with you."
The Shili Hongzhuang sent by King Ding is said to be a betrothal gift, but it is full of face for the entire Ningbo Mansion. The real thing is indeed for Ning Yujin.
When their family first married Ning Yuyan, the accompanying dowry cost almost half of the family's net worth. How could they still have the ability to repay Ning Yujin a ten-mile dowry?
Of course, I could only exchange the betrothal gift box and take it back with Ning Yujin.
After all this going back and forth, the things actually returned to Prince Ding's Mansion, but it was just a matter of face for both families.
However, in this way, what was originally the property of Prince Ding became Ning Yujin's dowry. Ning Zhongjian was very satisfied with this.
At least, Prince Ding has shown his sincerity. If any concubine with a strong financial background enters the palace in the future, even though the third girl is a concubine, no one can shake her status in Prince Ding's palace.
When the eldest lady heard what Ning Zhongjian said, her face suddenly became longer than that of a donkey: "With so many things delivered today, is it possible that we can't even keep dozens of loads? Then, haven't we raised our daughter, Third Girl, in vain?"
"What are you talking about!" Ning Zhongjian didn't want to scold her for being short-sighted. He just looked at her with a look of irony, then looked at Ning Yujin and said, "Your mother is like this, don't mind."
"What's wrong with me? I'm telling the truth." There are so many things, if you really want to deduct some of them, who will find anything?
Moreover, these will be Ning Yujin’s dowry from now on. Doesn’t it depend on her whether to give them away or not?
Huh, there are so many high-sounding reasons. If you are not happy, you are not happy.
Seeing that the eldest lady was still talking, Ning Zhongjian couldn't help but glared at her: "What do you know? Isn't it obvious what Mr. Murong meant by leaving behind people from Prince Ding's palace when he left?"
"Then...even if you don't move the betrothal gift sent by Prince Ding, you can always keep some of the things given by your relatives and friends, right? Then what does she mean by asking people from Prince Ding's mansion to register?"
The eldest lady rubbed her cheek and felt that pretending to smile for Ning Yujin today was in vain.
This girl is just a white-eyed wolf, and she has never thought about the kindness that Quan Ningbo Mansion treats her.
Ning Yujin raised her eyebrows and looked at the eldest lady with a speechless expression.
Is it possible that due to the recent lack of stimulation from Aunt Zhao, the eldest lady's vision has become smaller and smaller?
Of course, those things need to be registered and kept in a register. In the future, if someone has something to do or needs something, those things given to them will serve as a standard.
Furthermore, how could the eldest lady have the nerve to accept gifts from relatives and friends?
Ning Zhongjian's good mood was immediately wiped out by the eldest lady's anger. He was so angry that he took deep breaths, fearing that he could not help but get angry.
Even Ning Yujin couldn't help but shake her head.
No wonder Aunt Zhao has been on an equal footing with the eldest lady for so many years. With her gentle temperament, affectionate eyes, and charming posture, she has defeated the eldest lady by a lot.
If she still has this temper, I'm afraid that Aunt Zhao will appear in this house soon.
When the eldest lady saw that Ning Zhongjian had stopped speaking, she thought that what she said was on point, so she couldn't help but feel happy and prepared to speak again.
But at this moment, Ning Zhongjian snorted, looked at the eldest lady coldly and said, "You are not allowed to touch any of those things. And from now on, the house must follow Yan'er's example and prepare some for the three girls.
A share of the dowry!”
"Wha...what?" The eldest lady was stunned and stunned on the spot.
Why is it that not only can I not keep a single thing privately, but I have to prepare another one? And the standards are still the same as when Ning Yuyan got married?!
Ning Zhongjian couldn't help but sneered: "Do you think His Highness Prince Ding is so easy to fool? Your attitude towards the third girl will determine his attitude towards the entire Ningbo Mansion in the future! I still want your son's career, and I still want it.
From now on, Quan Ning Bo Mansion will have a peaceful life, and it’s up to you to take care of it!"
