Chapter 23, Half of the Dowry

"This...it's better not to use it!" Mrs. Yu had no choice but to come out and speak, pressing the handkerchief to her lips, with a trace of sadness on her face, "Now I'm just waiting for time...there's no need...

Please call the doctor again."

"In this case, our eldest princess's good intentions are in vain..." Aunt Qin waved her hand, and the doctor stepped back, pointing to the maids around him, "Please accept these sacrifices first, our eldest lady."

The eldest princess sent her slave over this time, and she has one more thing to ask Mrs. Yu."

Mrs. Yu had no choice but to answer these words.

Gritting his teeth, he waved his hand and called some maids over, and the mother-in-law accepted the gift.

Mrs. Ning was so angry that she was trembling. Her daughter's sedan chair had not even left the house yet, but a gift was delivered to her. What kind of intentions did An and the eldest princess have?

No wonder people say that the eldest princess is ignorant of affairs. The eldest princess who has been a princess for so many years must be stupid. Otherwise, how could she have a bad relationship with her only son and live in two places with him?

Now, it seems that he is not an easy person to get along with.

"What other instructions do you have for Princess An and the eldest daughter?" Mrs. Yu, who had to deal with a lot of things, had calmed down after a while, and asked gently after having someone take over the ritual.

"I would like to ask why someone in the Marquis Zhengyuan's Mansion wanted to murder us three girls?" Aunt Qin's face suddenly darkened, and she looked up at Mrs. Yu, "We three girls are kind enough to come to the wedding banquet of Lanxuan County Lord.

I don’t know if I saw something shameful, and someone actually wanted to assassinate our three girls.”

With one sentence, everyone in the hall was stunned.

Basically, people here don't know about Yu Xijiao. Even if some people have heard about it, they think it's an exaggeration. How could someone assassinate the third girl of Xuanping Marquis in Zhengyuan Mansion.

There must be another reason.

Now after listening to Aunt Qin's question and looking at Aunt Qin's provocative attitude just now, it suddenly dawned on her that An and the eldest princess were clearly here to ask questions.

Otherwise, why would he choose the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion to be so ugly? Let’s just forget about some things and make them look so ugly. It turned out that he came with anger.

"This...where do you start talking about this?" Mrs. Yu really didn't know. When Aunt Qin said this, her face turned pale and she subconsciously looked at Ning.

Ning didn't know, she only found out about it. Qian didn't say anything when she left, she just said she had something to do.

"This... when did this happen?" Seeing Aunt Qin's face, she had to work up her energy and step forward to explain, "It's impossible for this kind of thing to happen. Is there any misunderstanding here?"

"I misunderstood that our eldest princess didn't know. I only knew that the third girl came here to congratulate her, but was assassinated. At this time, she was lying in the eldest princess's house without knowing whether she was alive or dead. I want to ask your house, what happened?

Is it possible that there is something shameful going on in your house?"

Aunt Qin asked coldly.

These words are very rude, but if the eldest princess Anhe is asking the question, it will make people think it is reasonable. Although Zhengyuanhou Mansion still has a title, Zhengyuanhou has been dead for more than three years, and now the house of his in-law An Guogong is full.

If we were to say that we were confident in the execution, only the second wife Ning's natal family would be left.

Everyone understands that the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion has fallen into decline, and the second house cannot sustain the prestige of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.

The once-famous Zhengyuanhou has long since disappeared. Now Zhengyuanhou’s wife and Lanxuan County Lord were both buried in the fire. The only one left is the Zhengyuanhou Crown Prince. He is not only young but also weak. I heard that he was visiting Jiangnan.

The famous doctor is not in Beijing, so thinking about it makes me feel inexplicably lonely.

I once again realized that the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion was really in decline, no wonder now that they are determined to live in the Xinkangbo Mansion, and they are making trouble about the legacy of Lanxuan County Lord, so that Xinkangbo Prince can't even think about evading it.

"Where do you start talking about this? This... Such a big thing happened in our house today. The whole house is in chaos. I really don't know... how such a thing could happen." Ning's reaction was also quick.

He wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief and started crying, feeling very aggrieved.

"Zhengyuanhou's Mansion should indeed give us an explanation for this matter. We three girls first came to Beijing, we didn't know many people, and we didn't offend anyone. Suddenly, we almost died in Zhengyuanhou's Mansion." Aunt Qin didn't.

He was moved and said, "If there is any misunderstanding or something, why don't you assassinate other people, but just us three girls?"

"This matter... let us investigate later." Faced with the domineering An and the eldest princess, Ning had to swallow her anger.

"Of course it's possible. We have to organize the funeral for Mrs. Zhengyuanhou after all!" Aunt Qin nodded, silently twitching her lips, with a bit of ridicule, "I heard that the younger sister of the Marquis of Zhengyuan got married on behalf of her sister.

, but what is missing is that Mrs. Zhengyuan Hou and the county prince both have official status. Even if the marriage is more like a common people, how can the rules be messed up!"

After Aunt Qin finished speaking, she led the people away.

There was no sound in the living room. The ladies present were all stunned. Look at me, look at you, and their expressions suddenly changed.

There is indeed talk among the people about younger sisters marrying on behalf of older sisters, or younger sisters marrying younger sisters. There is also talk about doing weddings first and postponing funerals. This is also to take care of the living.

If there is a funeral that interferes with a happy event, but the happy event has to be done, then you can only feel a little aggrieved to the deceased.

But this happy event will definitely not be done in a big way, it can be done hastily.

Ordinary people are like this, not to mention that both Mrs. Zhengyuan and Lord Lanxuan have titles. Even if they are orphans and widowed now, no one will support them. But if someone really uses this to impeach Zhengyuan

The Hou Mansion and the Xin Kang Bo Mansion must be related to each other.

Before, some people saw that the Zhengyuanhou Mansion was still carrying out the dowry, and felt it was inappropriate, but after thinking about it, they felt that no one would support Mrs. Zhengyuanhou anymore. Even if the Zhengyuanhou Mansion was in decline, Xin Kang

However, it was just the time when the Prince's House was gaining power, and Prince Xinkang was a handsome young man. Even for the sake of Prince Xinkang's face, no one would take it seriously with the House of Zhengyuan.

But now, isn’t there someone?

Princess An and the eldest princess have always been outspoken and merciless. If they really get into trouble, all the guests present will be scolded by her for being unruly. After all, something really happened to Mrs. Zhengyuan Hou and Mr. Lanxuan County. Immediately

A funeral is about to take place, and it doesn't make sense that they don't go back to prepare for the ceremony and are still attending the wedding banquet.

"Madam, let's go back and prepare first." Madam You stood up first.

Then more people stood up: "We will go back first. If Mrs. Zheng Yuanhou and the County Lord...really, I hope the Tai Madam and the Second Madam will come and say something."

"Go get ready first."

“Go back and prepare first.”…

More people came to their senses and said goodbye one by one. If they stayed, they would be implicated in their family. It was better to go back and wait for the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion to report the funeral.

In fact, there are not many people left now. A group of them left a long time ago. Those who stayed are all close to the second wife and Mrs. Yu. They are relatively close people. Now because of the words of An and the eldest princess,

They all left in an instant, and Mrs. Yu's angry hands and feet were cold.

Ning was so angry that her eyes were filled with smoke. No one came to attend her daughter's wedding, and she was even preparing to attend the funeral. This felt like a slap in the face to her, and her face was livid with anger.

"Let the dowry be here first, and let Xin Kangbo Mansion come and pick her up as soon as possible." Mrs. Yu looked at the empty hall, stretched out her hand and pressed her head, and ordered.

"Mother, this...this dowry belongs to Yan'er, how can I not carry it over now?" Ning stamped her feet. What woman wouldn't want to marry with a red dot of ten miles? Her daughter had been thinking about this day for so long, and how long she had endured it.

When she saw Anshi preparing a dowry for her daughter before, she took everything into consideration. Ningshi even secretly laughed at Anshi, saying that she was just making a wedding dress for her, and that it would not fall into the hands of her daughter in the end. Everything was lost.

It belongs to the daughter, including Dafang’s son-in-law who is praised by everyone.

But what does it matter now? The last hurdle is stuck at Shili Hongzhuang.

"We'll talk about the dowry later." Mrs. Yu waved her hand. She must have matured and knew the choice. At this time, she felt faintly bad in her heart. She said in a deep voice, "Carry the person over first. If it's too late, it will be too late."

Change.”

"Mother!" Ning still wanted to argue.

"Go, send someone to inform Prince Xin Kangbo and ask him to come and pick him up as soon as possible." Mrs. Yu's face darkened and she said, "If you don't want to have an accident in the end and Yan'er can't marry anyone, don't give out any more dowries.

Already."

Yu Lanxuan has a lot of dowry. Not only was it carefully prepared for her by the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion, but it was also sent by An Guo Gongfu. Now the dowry is actually only half of the dowry. If the whole dowry is really sent, no matter what, it will have to wait.

Two hours.

Mrs. Yu felt vaguely bad and felt that she could not wait any longer.

Even though Mrs. Ning disagreed, after hearing Mrs. Yu's words, she did not dare to delay any longer. She sent someone to notify Chu Zihan to pick up the bride, and went in to give instructions to her daughter.

"What, only half of the dowry was given?" Yu Lanyan lifted the red hijab on her head and stamped her feet angrily. She had been eyeing Yu Lanxuan's dowry for a long time. The more Anshi prepared, the happier she became. All of this

Everything was prepared for her in the end, but now I told her that I only gave half of it away, how could she be willing?

The light ones were sent first, although the value may be more than half, but there are also some large and good things that were left behind and haven't had time to be sent.

"Yan'er, my mother will give you the dowry later. You get married first and we can talk about the rest later." Ning herself was so angry that her liver ached. At this time, she had to persuade her daughter, "Everything in this house will happen in the future."

It's all ours, it's just a matter of waiting, it doesn't mean anything."

"Mom, don't we still have an eldest brother and sister? Will they take a fancy to my things?" Yu Lanyan was dissatisfied. In her opinion, everything about Yu Lanxuan was hers long ago.

"No, it's all yours!" Ning didn't care about anything else at this time, coaxing Yu Lanyan and said, "The sedan chair will come over in a while. Even if it's a little shabby, don't worry about it. Go and pay homage first."

Ning also vaguely felt that something was wrong. The only way to deal with this matter was to send Yu Lanyan to Xin Kangbo Mansion first.

There will be other things happening soon!

At this time, in the mansion of Princess An and the eldest daughter, Yu Xijiao also told Princess An and the eldest daughter about the past with Yu Lanxuan, a relationship that surprised even her...
