The days that followed were considered peaceful. Mrs. Xu had been ill for several days, and she took medicine and decoction every day, but finally she got better.
I just didn't expect that His Majesty and the Empress in the palace would be so anxious that they decided to get married before the year before. They had already guessed that the prince's marriage would be before the year before, but they didn't expect that Xie Suyu's marriage was also scheduled for the year before. forward.
The queen was busy organizing two weddings in a row, so she invited a famous lady in the capital to help.
It's just that when the betrothal gifts of these three families fell, the distance between them became apparent.
It’s not that the queen is partial. When purchasing the betrothal gift, the queen also asked the emperor. However, the methods of the crown prince and concubine that the prince was about to marry were not very clean, and the emperor did not like them, so she asked the palace to prepare according to the rules. I ordered a portion, but there was nothing left to add to the side.
On the other hand, it is Wang Xianyu. Although she was able to marry the seventh prince and become the concubine because she accidentally ruined her reputation, in the final analysis, she is also a well-behaved girl. The status of the elders in the family is different, and the seventh prince also He was the only son of the queen, so the queen prepared more for the betrothal gift, which was enough to give Wang Xianyu enough dignity.
It seemed like a joke. Yan Junuo was also Xu Qingmo's cousin, but on the day when the prince appointed him, she didn't care at all and slept in the dark in her room.
On the contrary, on the day when Xie Suyu was hired, Wang Xianyu invited Xu Qingmo to come to her door. Xu Qingmo read clearly the betrothal gift list that Xie Suyu sent to her door.
Xu Qingmo was quite surprised: "Such a beautiful betrothal gift list will add a lot to your family's dowry!"
"My father and mother did not expect that His Highness and the Empress would value me so much. My mother said that there are many things in it that were the dowry that the Empress brought with her when she entered the palace." Wang Xian Yu blushed slightly, still somewhat shy.
Xu Qingmo kept shaking his head with emotion: "If it were me, I would definitely run away overnight with these betrothal gifts and dowry. With these things, I will be rich and noble in my life, why should I marry someone else and be a wife?"
"My daughter's family has so much wealth. In this world, if there are interested people everywhere watching you, life will not be easy." Wang Xianyu said with a smile, "You still have to find a lovable husband!"
Xu Qingmo was noncommittal: "Your wedding is so early. Can you make those wedding clothes?"
"These are all regulations!" Wang Xianyu said softly, "The palace will make preparations. Our wedding day is not different from the prince's by a few days, so we can't go past them!"
Xu Qingmo pouted, his face full of disdain, but he didn't say anything.
Wang Xianyu saw Xu Qingmo's expression and walked to her: "Mo Mo, you have helped me so much this time. If there is anything you want, as long as I can afford it, I will try my best to give it to you." I’ll give you everything I can!”
Xu Qingmo paused: "Huh? Is there something that you have that I don't have? You are from an aristocratic family, and our family is considered a new rich, but my maternal grandfather's family is also an aristocratic family, but there is nothing that I want! You Yes, I have them too!”
"Then, is there anything I can do for you?" Wang Xianyu looked at Xu Qingmo with sincerity in her eyes.
Xu Qingmo thought for a while: "I don't have anything I need you to do for me right now. Why don't you promise me something? Something that doesn't exceed your bottom line. It's something you can do for me. One day, I meet, I’ll tell you.”
Wang Xianyu quickly agreed: "Okay, I promise you!"
In fact, Xu Qingmo originally just came to listen, but he didn't expect that many years later, this matter would actually be used.
Wang Xianyu is full of joy. Being able to marry Xie Suyu is the greatest gift that God can give to her!
Xu Qingmo held his cheek and looked at Wang Xianyu, who was dazzled by joy and chattering endlessly. He couldn't help but sigh: "A woman trapped in a beautiful fantasy is really cute!"
Hua Ying glanced at Xu Qingmo, then gently poked her shoulder with her hand: "If you don't know how to say nice things, girl, stop talking!"
Xu Qingmo felt a little bored after staying in this room for a long time. After saying a few words to Wang Xianyu, she got up and went out for a walk. However, she did not expect that the person who came to offer the job had not left yet.
So when she met Meng Hetong in the yard, she was still a little surprised.
The moment Meng Hetong saw Xu Qingmo, he felt a little unbelievable: "Why are you here?"
"Wang Xianyu asked me to come, saying that you are going to hire me today, so let me take a look!" Xu Qingmo didn't shy away from anything, and said openly.
"What do you think after reading it?" Meng Hetong looked at Xu Qingmo and asked softly.
"It's all real money. If I were to run away overnight with these betrothal gifts, it would be enough for me to live for several lifetimes. Why should I marry a stinky man like you and have children?" Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows slightly.
Meng Hetong almost choked to death on his own saliva, and it took him a long time to recover: "You little girl, how come your thoughts are so different from those of normal people? You have to have a long-term perspective in life, how can you be limited to these betrothal gifts in front of you? Woolen cloth?"
"They are all real gold and silver. Those East beads are as big as fists. If I hadn't seen these things since I was a child, I would be so greedy that I would be drooling right now. I can take any East beads and exchange them for money. You can let an ordinary family live a lifetime!" Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows, "Wouldn't it be better to be more comfortable on your own? Do you have to give birth to children in a narrow escape for others?"
Meng Hetong couldn't think of anything to refute for a moment. After holding it back for a long time, he finally just said: "You just have a lot of fallacies!"
"This is the truth!" Xu Qingmo snorted, "This woman, if she had money, why would she have to live with a man? Anyway, if it were me, I might just take these betrothal gifts and run away overnight."
Meng Hetong was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Then your future husband will hire you, but he must prepare something for you that cannot be taken away overnight, at least it cannot be gold, silver, or jewelry!"
Xu Qingmo held up his chin with a look of indifference on his face: "I'm not greedy for other people's gold, silver and jewelry. I have those myself. If my father and mother don't kick me out, I would rather stay at home as an old girl for the rest of my life and eat the food at home." , how good it is to use the ones at home!”
Meng Hetong was speechless, just standing aside silently, looking at Xu Qingmo quietly.
