A girl who is a criminal in the medical profession has a good fortune, and aristocratic families are

Wu opened the box.

A stack of banknotes were neatly stacked inside, all in denominations of one thousand taels, a total of thirty.

Wu raised her eyes in surprise: "Is this?"

She knew that Mrs. Tang was not the kind of person who would accept bribes. Of course, Mr. Tang would not take away the opportunity for bribes. At most, he would only get some rewards from nobles.

"The eldest prince's men sent it to me."

"What does this mean? How could the eldest prince give us money for no reason?" Wu was a little confused.

"The person who came here said that Jun Qian earned the money and was going to give it to Ling'er as a dowry. I heard that Jun Qian took advantage of the epidemic and there was no cure to kill the Liu family."

Wu was very happy when she heard this, "A few of us totaled up the money we had on the way here. Although we have earned a lot in the past two years, Ling'er also spent a lot, so we didn't save much. Cao Cao I took out all the money earned from the restaurant, as well as the money from the drinking shop that Fu'er was in charge of, and put them all together in one place. I only managed to collect 20,000 taels of silver. I was worried about what to do with it. As for the dowry, it solves the urgent need."

Mr. Tang's temperament has always been casual.

They ate delicacies from the mountains and seas, as well as porridge and side dishes. In his eyes, there was not much difference between silk and satin and coarse linen. They were all clothes on the left and right.

So I was a little surprised to hear that twenty thousand taels of silver was not enough, "I only spent two hundred taels to marry you back then? Why does it cost so much to get married now? Twenty thousand taels of silver is not enough?"

Wu said angrily: "How can our meeting be compared with what we are doing now?"

"You married a country woman back then, and a few hundred taels of silver were more than enough. But now Ling'er is marrying a noble marquis, how can we compare them together?"

Mr. Tang knew he had made a mistake and said hurriedly: "Isn't this just a sigh of relief? It's just that no one in our family, including Ruidu and other officials, knows about it, so there is no need to pretend to be fat."

Once upon a time, he attended a wedding banquet of other petty officials. Those officials praised the bride on the spot for her large dowry and the excellent antique calligraphy and paintings, but secretly they sneered at them, saying that they spent their money to buy these things that they didn't know were true or false. It's so ridiculous.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Tang warned: "In my opinion, it's enough to buy land and a shop as a dowry for Ling'er. We don't understand antiques and the like, so don't buy them randomly and suffer a loss. The land and shop are quite standard and it's not easy to make mistakes. "

Mrs. Wu waved her hand towards him, "Don't worry, I know what's going on. I also have a few wives I know well. I'll go ask for advice tomorrow."

She looked at her old man seriously and said, "Ling'er is the treasure of our family. We must be careful with this dowry. Mrs. Mo and Mrs. Xu are both good people. No matter what we buy, they will not find fault. But when our granddaughter marries, it represents The face of our family is also related to her face among these ladies in the future, so she must not be careless."

Being used to seeing people in Ruidu being flattered and put down, Mr. Tang's face became a little more solemn, "Well, I will also ask the adults around me for advice tomorrow."

The couple were making calculations here, and Mr. Cao was also whispering to Tang Yuanzhi in the room.

"I came to Ruidu this time and took out all the money in the shop and gave it to my mother."

Tang Yuanzhi nodded, "That's natural. Ling'er is marrying into the Marquis of Zhenxi Mansion. Our ancestors gave birth to a Marquis, so we can't be careless about the dowry."

After saying that, he asked Mrs. Cao: "Have you taken it all? Don't do any tricks for me. You even kept the money behind your back."

According to his understanding of the Cao family, this woman could do such a thing.

Ms. Cao immediately slapped the pillow on his head, "Hey Tang Yuanzhi, do you miss me so much?"

"Hey, I didn't just say it casually. If you didn't do it, just say it properly. Why are you angry?"

"Hmph! Let me tell you, don't look down on others! In the past few years, I have finally figured it out. Our family's wealth depends entirely on Ling'er. How could I let her down on something like this?"

Mrs. Cao's heart became more and more passionate when she thought that her eldest niece was about to marry into the Zhenxi Marquis Mansion, and that she could bring the Tang family into the upper class circle of Ruidu.

She turned over and pressed down on Tang Yuanzhi, lowered her head and asked him, "You said-"

Tang Yuanzhi immediately blushed with embarrassment, "What a decent mother-in-law you are. Even if we haven't seen each other for several months, you can't be like this..."

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Cao hit his chest, "What are you thinking about? I want to ask you, if Ling'er marries well, will our Fuer's husband also be better? Don't you usually How do you say that if one person achieves enlightenment, he or she will be like a chicken or a dog?"

"One person attains the Tao of chickens and dogs and ascends to heaven."

Tang Yuanzhi blurted out, and then said "Bah bah", "You are a chicken and a dog. Our Fu'er is an official lady, so how can you be a chicken and a dog?"

He said with a smile and said: "But you are right. If Ling'er marries well, Fu'er will be just as good in the future. You have to help your mother handle Ling'er's dowry and provide a good marriage for us Tang family girls." head!"

What he didn't say was that as long as the eldest prince takes the throne in the future, the Tang family will be considered to have followed the dragon, and the daughter's husband will be able to choose.

Now that Tang Yuanzhi thought about how the Marquis of Zhenxi would call him uncle, he suddenly felt energetic and full of energy.

"Place it, place it!"

He reached out and grabbed Cao's arm, turned over and lowered the curtain.

"Oh, you damn ghost——"

......

Early the next morning, Xu Xiangxiang came to Tang's house to pick up Yunling and go shopping.

Thinking that the girl's family was very lively and could help as a consultant, she also brought Shen Qingdai and Tang Zifu with her.

They first went to the most famous embroidery workshop in Ruidu, Caixian Pavilion.

A shop that has been able to stand in Ruidu for a hundred years must have its own unique skills. Caixian Pavilion is most famous for its wedding dress materials.

It is said that the owner of Caixian Pavilion started his business by weaving and dyeing cloth in the early years. Once he accidentally discovered a special plant. Mixing it with red dye can make the cloth more vivid. Phoenix is ​​embroidered on this cloth. At this time, the phoenix will become more lifelike, as if it is about to soar out of the fire.

Especially when the princess of Ruyang did not ask for a wedding dress from the palace, but chose to wear a wedding dress made of Phoenix Brocade to get married. This Phoenix Brocade became the most wanted wedding dress material for brides in Ruidu.

"Invite some distinguished guests."

The shopkeeper was a smart person. He noticed the Zhenxihou Mansion logo on the carriage when several people got out of the car, and immediately came to greet them.

Xu Xiangxiang led people into the shop, and after sitting down, he said, "A phoenix brocade."

"Madam, you have good taste, but a young lady in your family is getting married? If so, our store will also give you a wedding hijab made of the same material." The shopkeeper said with a smile on his face.

Xu Xiangxiang nodded with satisfaction, "The child is getting married."

She had worn Phoenix brocade when she got married, so she knew how good this brocade was. Over the years, this shop has become better and better at doing business.

"Then should I take the clothes away now or send them to my house?" the shopkeeper asked.
