The couple knelt down in front of Wan Niang and kowtowed.
"Okay, okay, you are all good children."
Wan Niang smiled happily and went to support them on both sides.
Yan Funing took the teacup from Nanny Li's tray and presented it to her mother-in-law: "Mother, please have some tea."
"Drink, drink, drink."
Wan Niang was very happy. She took the teacup and drank it all in one breath.
He put down the teacup and took out a thick red envelope and gave it to Yan Funing.
"I've been looking forward to this day for a long time. Fu Ning, from now on you and Ci Yi must get along well as always."
Yan Funing responded: "Yes, mother."
Wan Niang took out another red envelope and said, "Ci Yi, this is for you."
As he spoke, he fumbled and placed the red seal in Yan Funing's hand.
Fu Ciyi curled his lips: "Thank you, mother."
"Everyone must be hungry, let's have breakfast."
Wan Niang stood up and let the newlyweds support her on both sides as she walked.
On the way, she wanted to urge them to consummate their marriage as soon as possible, but she didn't say it.
After breakfast, Yan Funing went to the storehouse to count her dowry.
It took the entire morning just to count them.
I sorted the dowry into categories and stored them away properly, and I was busy with this until the afternoon.
Then he sorted out the gifts that the guests had sent to the Fu family yesterday. Fortunately, the number of guests who came to the Fu family for the wedding was not as many as that of the Yan family, and the gifts were not too many, so they were sorted out in an hour.
After the amount of the gift money is checked, it is locked in a small room where money is stored.
Finally it's empty.
His eyes shifted to the gifts given by Pang Anmeng, Shi Yangyang and Long Chi'an.
Pang Anmeng and Shi Yangyang were both given a set of headgear as gifts.
Caiyu came over carrying a large wooden box. "Miss, this is a gift from the Prince of the Southwest. He brought it yesterday morning when he came to the Yan family for a wedding banquet. I was so busy at the time that I put the gift together with the dowry and forgot to tell you."
"Jin Lingcen's?"
"Well, Miss, open it and take a look."
Yan Funing took the large wooden box and opened it. Inside was a set of tea sets, a teapot, and twelve small teacups.
It is carved from green jade and is very expensive.
Caiyu was amazed at this. "Such a valuable gift, yet it's placed in a wooden box. If I had known how valuable it was, I would have kept it safe all the way here."
"The wooden box is also precious. Look, there are grooves on the bottom. They are specially made for tea sets."
Yan Funing picked up a teacup and showed Caiyu the bottom.
Caiyu nodded: "The Prince of Southwest is truly generous."
"When he gets married in the future, I have to give him a good gift."
Yan Funing gently put the teacup back to its original place and shifted her gaze to the gift from Long Chi'an.
"Miss, do you want to open it?"
"Open it, and you can play chess when you have time."
Caiyu quickly untied the silk ribbon on the gift box and opened the small lock on top, revealing two chess baskets inside.
"Miss, is it Go?"
Yan Funing said "hmm" and took out the two chess baskets one after another.
When she opened the lid, she found that the white pieces inside were actually made of white jade and were warm to the touch. She quickly opened another chess basket.
The black spots are also made of jade.
Caiyu didn't know much about jade, but she thought the Go pieces in front of her were round and beautiful, and even the color was better than ordinary Go pieces. She couldn't help but ask, "Miss, this piece is very valuable, right?"
"It's very valuable, made of white jade and black jade."
Yan Funing frowned, regretting that she had not asked carefully that day, and also regretting that she had accepted it so easily.
He hurriedly put the chess basket back into the gift box and hurried to find Fu Ciyi.
In the study in the front yard, Fu Ciyi was processing official documents sent by the Hanlin Academy.
Hearing footsteps, he looked up at her.
"how?"
Yan Funing showed him the chess pieces in the gift box. "Long Chi'an gave them to me. He said they were chess pieces, but I didn't know they were so valuable beforehand. I only realized it after seeing them."
Fu Ciyi lowered his eyes and continued writing: "What do you think?"
"I was thinking of finding an excuse to return it and give it a gift. What do you think?"
She came sincerely to seek his advice.
Fu Ciyi said calmly, "Since he gave it to you, just keep it."
"Ah?" Yan Funing was surprised. "Oh."
After packing the gift box, he left his study.
It's really strange.
In the past, whenever Long Chi'an gave him something, he would always go crazy.
Not today.
In fact, it is not easy to return the gifts she has received. When Long Chi'an gets married in the future, she will give him some more gifts based on the same standards.
That's all there is to it.
Just as I was thinking about it, I met Fu Nanyao on the way.
"Sister-in-law, I can walk much more smoothly now. Do you think when I can run and jump again?"
"Practice walking more, there's no rush to run or jump."
"I'll listen to you, sister-in-law." Fu Nanyao said with a smile, "Ever since I was able to walk again, I've wanted to go shopping. Sister-in-law, will you accompany me?"
"I'm busy these two days. I'll go with you in a few days."
Fu Nanyao nodded: "Sister-in-law and brother are newly married, so they are naturally busy. It's okay for me to wait for a few days."
The aunt and sister-in-law talked for a while, and then Yan Funing returned to her bridal chamber.
He stared at the gifts piled on the table, his chin in his hand, in a daze.
Jin Lingcen and she had become good friends. They understood each other's difficulties and were close friends. She felt no burden using the gifts he gave her.
But Long Chi'an's relationship with her is awkward.
The Go board he gave...
It’s better to store it.
Just then, Fu Ciyi walked in.
In his hand he held a square wooden board, a chessboard to be exact.
"Why put it aside? We have good chess pieces, so let's play chess."
As he said this, he placed the chessboard on the table.
Yan Funing touched the chessboard and asked in surprise: "Is this a chessboard inlaid with gold thread?"
"Good eyesight."
"What good eyesight? The lines dividing the chessboard are so golden, who can't see it?"
