No one in the Shenzhai compound is shallow-minded.

The second and third girls in the Hou Mansion were usually neither nice nor bad to Lin Si. They just lived a simple life without provoking anyone. Logically speaking, there was no grudge.

If things weren't so strange that day, Lin Chunhuan wouldn't have thought that these two people were responsible.

The second girl and the third girl are twins, born to Aunt Qian.

Unlike Aunt Gu, who was born in Jiaofangsi, Aunt Qian was a concubine specially brought back from her hometown by the Marquis of Yuanning, and her status was higher than that of Aunt Gu.

Even Madam, although she doesn't like it in her heart, she doesn't dare to take it too seriously.

As for Aunt Qian, she seems to be a person who neither fights nor grabs. She stays out of the public eye all day long in her yard, living a life without fighting against the world. She is kind to others and can talk to everyone.

But for such a person, she was the one responsible for Aunt Gu's death.

"Lu Fu, since my two sisters like me, don't stop me. I will get married soon, and I won't have a chance to get close to my two sisters in the future."

"There is no need to care about everything like this."

The hand holding the tea cup was slightly trembling, Lin Chunhuan lowered his eyes, hiding his uneasy mood.

She originally thought that she didn't care that much about Aunt Gu's death, but in fact she didn't...

The longer she stayed in the Hou Mansion, the more she could see all the arrangements Aunt Gu made for her before she died. Otherwise, she would not have been able to grow up with just a green lady.

Aunt Gu was a person who didn't go out much on weekdays, but she went out on an unforgettable day. She was so unlucky that she happened to meet the gangster who robbed the execution ground.

When he died, not even a whole body was left behind.

This incident seemed like an accident. Lu Fu secretly checked and found out that Aunt Gu went out that day at the request of Lin Yimiao, but that gang of thugs.

But it has nothing to do with Yixueyuan.

Aunt Qian was so capable that she came to the eldest lady to complain openly and secretly. First, she said that after Aunt Gu came in, she could not even see the Marquis and lived a miserable life, which made the eldest lady feel empathetic.

He also informed the eldest lady that there was a lot of chaos outside and I don’t know what happened. Unfortunately, Aunt Gu didn’t go out. If she went out, something would happen...

These are Lin Yimiao's original words.

When Aunt Qian said these words, she was beside the eldest lady. At that time, she only thought that Aunt Gu was a disaster and had robbed her father.

Aunt Qian expressed the hope that Aunt Gu would be gone, and she thought so too!

Before she came back from rebirth, she spent decades in the East Palace and slowly realized what was wrong with her words. At that time, even her mother, the serious eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, didn't know that there was chaos outside.

How could a concubine with no door or two doors be so well-informed?

So after getting her wish and marrying into the prince's palace, as soon as she arrived at Tingshui Pavilion, she told her all her conjectures.

Coupled with the fact that the second and third girls were weird about the prince, I couldn’t blame Lin Chunhuan for pinning the evidence on Aunt Qian, mother and daughter when there was no clear evidence!

But...what happened in the past is in the past.

Now that the man has passed away, it is almost impossible to expect the Marquis of Yuan Ning to bring up the past again.

Lin Chunhuan took a deep breath. Even if it wasn't for Aunt Gu, the Hou Mansion was her and Lin Yimiao's natal family after all. The honor and disgrace of the Hou Mansion was directly related to the future of the two of them to a certain extent.

Based on this alone, she couldn't let this place suffer any more troubles.

I don't know if it was because of a guilty conscience, but after that day, the prince never appeared in front of Lin Chunhuan again. Although Lu Fu was dissatisfied with having a master, she still allowed the two girls to do whatever they wanted without saying a word.

Until the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion came to report.

Donggong is here to hire someone!

"Lv Fu, go to Aunt Qian's place and tell me that Dong Gong is here to hire me. I can't handle the situation by myself, so please ask my two sisters to help me support the situation."

Lufu couldn't figure it out.

He responded in a muffled voice.

When she came back, Lin Chunhuan had finished dressing herself and went directly to the front yard.

The person who came from the East Palace was the chamberlain beside the prince. It was the same person Lin Chunhuan wanted to beat and kill her when she first went to the East Palace. He was someone close to the prince.

The other one is Achai.

Seeing her coming, Achai didn't even look at Marquis Yuan Ning and stepped forward directly, "I've seen the concubine. The prince is preparing the last steps of the betrothal gift. She will arrive later."

"Should we sing the ceremony first, or wait until the prince arrives before starting?"

"Let's start first. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know when he will arrive. It's the same with us singing the ceremony while waiting!" Marquis Yuan Ning said cheerfully.

Although I haven't seen everything yet, what I can see in front of me is enough to show that the prince attaches great importance to the Hou Mansion.

As he spoke, Marquis Yuan Ning couldn't help but straighten his back.

However, Ah Chai ignored him at all. He only waited until Lin Chunhuan nodded gently before softly responding, "Then I will listen to the Marquis. Happy Eunuch, let's sing the ceremony first!"

Marquis Yuan Ning's expression did not change, but he glanced at Lin Chunhuan calmly.

Achai's move was obviously a warning to Marquis Yuan Ning.

What the prince values ​​​​is not the Hou Mansion, but Miss Lin Si of the Hou Mansion!

"Twelve oaks of pearls from the East Sea."

"Dozens of cloud brocades."

"Four pairs of jade bracelets."

"..."

To sing the betrothal gift, you need to open the door and invite everyone to watch the ceremony. Carrying the things in the East Palace in such a grand manner has already attracted a crowd of people to watch. As the eunuch sings the ceremony, every sentence can cause a burst of exclamation. .

In those nanmu boxes, every piece is a priceless treasure!

Even Marquis Yuan Ning couldn't help but widen his eyes. The second and third girls from the Marquis's residence came later, but they only heard half of the story. They looked at each other and stood on the side, even breathing slowed down involuntarily. some.

When the happy father-in-law closed the betrothal gift list, the whole front yard was so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop.

"Reply to Concubine Lin. Your Highness the Crown Prince has told me that these betrothal gifts will be put into your private treasury and put into the dowry. You will bring them back to the East Palace when the time comes."

"Please ask Concubine Lin to send someone to show you the way."

It sounds like it's just sent back and forth, but the meaning is completely different!

According to the laws of our dynasty, a woman's dowry is all private property. Even if the holder dies without leaving a will, it will be fully inherited by her children.

Either it can be brought back by the mother's family, and the husband's family cannot touch it at all.

This law is equally applicable even to the royal family.

But any family that wants to save face will never give a woman a dowry!

Lin Chunhuan pursed her lips and smiled, and returned the greeting lightly, "Thank you so much, Eunuch Xi, Lu Fu, for leading the way for Eunuch Xi."

"Eh!"

Lu Fu deserved to be lighthearted. When she passed by the second and third girls, she was so proud that her chin was raised to the sky.

Achai came forward again and pointed to the old nanny beside him, "Concubine Lin, this is Aunt Hong. Concubine Qin specially asked for it from the concubine. Aunt Qian will tell you before entering the East Palace. Follow the rules.”
