Just like that, Princess Zhao took away Su Fu's Gengtie, and the news spread to Furong Garden. Su Fu didn't know the twists and turns, but she was overjoyed and extremely happy.
After she married Zhao Mingyan, she would become Princess Zhao in the future, and her husband would be the powerful Prince Zhao in the future. As for the Crown Prince and Su Ran, she must make them look good!
She thought about humiliating Su Ran, so she asked Bai He, the maid next to her: "Where is Su Ran being held now? Take me to see her!"
Bai He said helplessly: "I don't know where he is being held. Girl, Madam's people are still guarding the door and we are not allowed to leave the yard."
A girl in our clan would have two maids if she was a legitimate daughter, but only one if she was a concubine. Su Fu's original maids were Bai Wei and Bai Qiang. Bai Wei betrayed her and stepped on her to get the upper hand, but Bai Qiang did not. Because she got caught up in something, she couldn't be saved and was beaten to death.
Su Fu asked Yang to deal with Bai Wei. She also didn't want to see Bai Qiang, so as not to think about the bad things in her previous life, so she asked Yang to find a shopkeeper and marry her off long ago. Now she is surrounded by Bai He and Bai Zhi. , two newly brought up maids.
After hearing this, Su Fu remembered that she was still in confinement, and she suddenly became angry: "When will my grandparents release me? I'm getting married, they won't still lock me up!"
The two maids lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything. Su Fu looked at these two people and was even more furious.
When the news of Su Fu's engagement with Prince Zhao reached Wan Yuan, Su Wan was talking to Xiao Sang and Xiao Wei. After a period of recuperation, Xiao Wei was able to get out of bed, so she asked the maid to support her today. Come here and thank your master for saving your life.
Xiao Sang gloated: "Girl, do you think it's irritating or not? I heard that the gifts for proposing marriage are only six gifts. The palace of Prince Zhao is really shabby. I don't know how many people in the mansion are saying privately, Prince Zhao’s Mansion doesn’t want to see us four girls.”
"And taking the Geng Tie away on the day of the marriage proposal is really disrespectful."
When a man proposes marriage to a woman, there are six or twelve rites. For ordinary people, six rites are enough, but often in order to show respect and love for the woman, twelve rites are prepared.
The six gifts include a pair of cakes, incense and candles, tea, gold, a gift box (melons and fruits), and a set of new clothes for the bride (or cloth). (This is compiled by the author himself and cannot be scrutinized)
In a high-end mansion, the daughter of the Marquis of Jinning received only six gifts when she proposed marriage, and they were ordinary things. The most important gift was just a hundred taels of silver, and a piece of clothing. You can buy ready-made clothes in the store for only twenty taels.
If this spreads out, people will laugh to death.
Su Fu's wedding gift was not even comparable to that of Su Ruo and Su Rong, who were married to Su Ruo. Especially the Pingbai Hou Mansion, where Su Ruo married, valued Su Ruo very much and put a lot of effort into the gifts.
"Originally, the people in the mansion didn't go out of their way to take a look. They only saw the red burdens carrying gifts. They thought it was Prince Zhao's mansion after all, and the etiquette must not be too bad. But after they left, they found out that it was so elegant. Can’t reach the countertop.”
"Mrs. Crown Prince was so angry that she almost fainted." Xiao Sang sighed, "I don't know if the fourth girl will vomit blood when she finds out."
Xiao Fei sneered: "You deserve it! If they hadn't robbed the girl of her marriage, where would we be today?"
Xiao Sang and Xiao Pei have different tempers. Xiao Sang is gentler, while Xiao Pei is more upright and very stubborn.
Su Wan was worried when he heard this, and covered his heart with his hand: "If Mr. Li comes to propose marriage, and he can't get on the stage like this, won't I be laughed to death?!"
Xiao Sang and Xiao Bei turned to look at her, and then fell silent.
The silence was a bit solemn.
Su Wan groaned, then stood up: "No, no, this is definitely not possible!"
This is a matter of face. Su Wan doesn't care if she marries a poor family member and is laughed at by outsiders. After all, she is rich and she knows how she will live her life in the future. However, if the other person is too poor and makes her lose face in the marriage, she will be a little bit embarrassed. Can't stand it anymore.
Like Su Fu now, from the master to the slaves, there are countless people in this house who are laughing at her.
So what if you want to marry into Prince Zhao's palace? This marriage proposal is not as good as that of a concubine from a humble family. Now you don't even care about the marriage proposal. How can you care about a big gift in the future? ! Will this husband's husband still be interested in her in the future? !
Su Wan took two steps in the room irritably, thought for a while, then asked someone to prepare pen and ink, and wrote a letter. After the ink dried, Xiao Sang asked Xiao Sang to take out a thousand taels of silver note. , fold it together and place it in the envelope.
Xiao Sang and Xiao Fei were stunned and trembling.
Su Wan told Xiao Sang: "Go to Yuhuayuan and ask your father to give this letter to Mr. Li. Let him, let him take care of it!"
Xiao Sang swallowed: "Girl, isn't this, isn't this bad?!"
There are girls who privately give money to the man so that he can prepare a better wedding gift. This, this is too...
Xiao Sang's face was extremely troubled.
Su Wan said: "What's wrong? It would be better if we don't lose face when the time comes?!"
Xiao Sang choked and stopped talking at that time. If Mr. Li comes to propose marriage at that time, it will be like what happened today at Prince Zhao's Mansion, and the girl will really be embarrassed.
"Well, then..." Xiao Sang took the envelope and went out in confusion. When she was at the door, she forgot to lift her feet, tripped on the threshold and almost fell. Fortunately, she had the good sense to quickly hold the door frame. Only then did he stand firm.
Seeing this, Su Wan reached out and pressed his eyebrows: "Be careful, don't fall again!"
"Oh, girl, I got it!"
Xiao Sang stumbled all the way to Yuhuayuan and met Su Xun. He nervously said Su Wan's words and then handed over the envelope with a look on his face as if he was about to faint.
Su Xun took the envelope and opened it, almost choking on his own saliva.
"This, this is written by your girl?!"
Xiao Sang said with a dull face: "Of course it's true. I saw what the girl wrote."
Su Xun's face was dull for a while, and then he refolded the letter paper and banknotes and put them back into the envelope: "Okay, I'll have someone send them over."
"Ah? Third Master, are you really sending it over?!" Xiao Sang was shocked.
"Um."
...
"Young Master Li is well, and I have no choice but to disturb you. Today, when my fourth sister proposes marriage, the husband's family is very shabby. Everyone in the house laughs at me. I think that your family is not rich, so I sent you a thousand taels of silver in the hope that you will be happy and deal with it. Don't Embarrass me."
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
"What you say is really reasonable and well-founded. The cause and effect are simple and clear. This last sentence is especially crucial. Don't embarrass me! Hahaha!"
"Don't embarrass me, hahaha!"
"This sixth girl is quite a wonderful person!"
"Shut up!" Mr. Li was furious and snatched the letter back from the other party's hand, "Jiubian, do you want to go to Beiyuan for business? If you want to go, I will help you!"
