In front of everyone, the lid of the box was opened with a swish. My god, the golden light was so bright that it almost blinded everyone.

But that was not all. After a while, Eunuch Huang arrived. After reading the emperor's congratulatory words, he brought up two boxes. At that moment, the preparations for the king's service were almost the same.

People couldn't help but exclaim, "This is against the will of heaven!"

"It is said that Prince Yan prepared the 100-ton betrothal gift twice before this, plus these three boxes...Oh my God, this Jiang Ying is definitely the richest lady in the capital!"

"I remember that the last princess of the previous dynasty had a dowry of 500,000 taels of silver, and the red makeup was ten miles long, which made people jealous. Now, Prince Yan's betrothal gift alone is so much. If we add these three boxes of dowry from the Duke's Mansion, by the time of the wedding, I'm afraid it will be no less than 500,000, right?"

"Of course it's a lot! Haven't you seen how much Mr. Jiang loves her like his own eyeballs? Mr. Jiang is a famous extravagant person!"

"Tsk tsk, comparing yourself to others is frustrating. They are all noble ladies. Not only was she born with a silver spoon in her mouth, she is also marrying with a golden envelope!"

Jiang Ying looked at the three boxes, but he couldn't calm down a bit.

She originally said that she planned to earn money with her medical skills to give to her son as a dowry, but now it seems that it is not necessary?

Suddenly, someone else asked, "Where is Prince Yan? Almost everyone has arrived. Doesn't he plan to come?"

Following this sound, Jiang Ying subconsciously looked at several intersections near the gate of the mansion.

But unfortunately, there was no one there.

Could it be that I finally got angry and left?

Jiang Ying thought so. At this time, the sound of silk and bamboo in the mansion was pleasant to the ears. Her grandmother did not stay in the front yard, but went to the back yard together, and the homecoming feast began.

Jiang Shang glanced at Jiang Ying who was walking towards him, and stood on his high seat with some excitement, "Today's government office is holding a banquet, and I am grateful that you can take time out of your busy schedule to come. I am a rough man, so I won't do anything fancy. Please ask the elders of the Jiang clan to give my daughter a name, and Mr. Qi to add a hairpin for my daughter!"

The clan elder is still the same clan elder, Great Ancestor Jiang Pinhuai.

He had already been to Xinghua Village once before. Although he had some setbacks due to the trouble made by Grandma Jiang, fortunately, everything was investigated clearly. There was no doubt about Jiang Ying's identity as the daughter of the Jiang family. When her name was written into the family tree today, her identity would be confirmed.

Jiang Pinhuai and Zongrenling were next to each other in position, and although they were of different ages, they could talk alike.

Of course, it was the clan leader who gave the Jiang family extra face.

Otherwise, although this clan leader has a good temper, he is not a talkative person.

When his name was called, Jiang Pinhuai stood up with his cane and nodded apologetically, "Zongrenling, I'm sorry to accompany you for a while."

Yan Yi waved his hands in a good-tempered manner, "Go ahead, go ahead. This is your job today. Help the Jiang family find the pearl that was accidentally lost. We can talk about it after you finish your job."

Mrs. Qi was already prepared. Her legs were strong and she had already reached the wooden platform before Jiang Pinhuai.

The table is both a stage and a stage for every family, and it can also be used to hold coming-of-age ceremonies and capping ceremonies for their sons and daughters. The Jiang residence began preparations many days ago, so today the entire residence is filled with the fragrance of flowers and is magnificent.

"Go, Yingying." Lian and Qi Lao looked at each other with a smile and gently pushed Jiang Ying's shoulder.

Originally, there were two steps, namely offering incense and adding a name. Lian felt sorry for Jiang Ying because she had never held a grand coming-of-age ceremony, which was a great regret for the two girls, so she decided to hold one after recognizing her ancestors.

The ceremony was simplified, and they invited Mrs. Qi to add the hairpin for her. Firstly, Mrs. Qi was of noble status, and secondly, she brought it up herself, which showed that she was very satisfied with the intention of her grandson's daughter-in-law.

In short, no matter whether the emperor, the clan leader, or Mr. Qi or the king, no one objected to Jiang Ying becoming the princess of a county.

Now it was Jiang Ying who refused openly and secretly.

Everyone: "..."

Not sour, not sour at all!

There is an incense table on the stage. The process of offering incense is equivalent to offering sacrifice to ancestors. The incense table faces the direction of the Jiang family ancestral hall. In ancient times, women were not allowed to enter the family ancestral hall, so this is equivalent to offering incense to the ancestors.

Jiang Ying held three incense sticks in his green fingers, knelt on the ground, kowtowed, stood up, and then inserted the burning incense sticks into the incense pot, and that was it.

There was a burst of applause from the audience.

The elder waited for a while, then stood up and walked to the ink table. A thick square family tree was opened on it. He picked up the jade pen, dipped it in ink, and asked Jiang Ying gently, "Who is the young man who is kneeling?"

Jiang Ying answered obediently, "My surname is Jiang, my name is Ying, I am from Xinghua Village, I was born in the year of Wuchen, and I am only sixteen years old. Not long ago, I was found to be born abnormal. After investigation, I was found to be the biological daughter of Jiang Shangluo of the Duke of Jiang's mansion."

"good."

Jiang Pinhuai did not rush to write, but slowly added, "This girl, Jiang Ying, was separated from her family because of the evil deeds of her family servants. Now she has recognized her ancestors and returned to the name of Jiang Shang. The family is reunited and happy!"

Jiang Shang strode onto the stage and stood beside Jiang Ying. "My daughter Jiang Ying is the daughter of a concubine whom I accidentally separated from. I now acknowledge my ancestors and join the Jiang clan. I hope that the ancestors will bless the descendants of the Jiang family, and that the clan will prosper and last for a hundred generations!"

"Li 늅!" Following this melodious tone, Jiang Pinhuai finally wrote the words.

The genealogy with Jiang Ying's name added was put into the genealogy box and kept by Zheng Zhong.

Afterwards, Jiang Shang and Jiang Pinhuai retreated to the side. Elder Qi stood up, and Jiang Ying knelt in front of her like a cherished young man.

Old Qi was ill and her hands were not very steady, but she still tried her best to steadily pin a gold and jade peony hairpin on Jiang Ying.

At the same time, she opened the small box on the chair and handed it to Jiang Ying, "Child, I originally wanted to use the hairpin in the box, but then I thought that today is your ancestral return ceremony, so I'd better use the one your grandmother prepared for you. This one, let me give you as a return gift."

She deliberately opened the box in advance, just to let everyone see what was inside.

I saw that the hairpin head was a small pomegranate and a red jade hairpin!

The red color is integrated without any traces of splicing, and it can be seen that it is carved from a whole piece of jade.

Jiang Ying felt that it was particularly dignified and noble, and that her clothes today matched her very well.

But when the people below saw him, they were all surprised and envious, "Wow, what does Mr. Qi mean by this? He has already decided on this grandson's daughter-in-law?"

"Look at you, you've already brought the family heirloom hairpin, I don't think you'd be willing to give it up!"

"Didn't this hairpin, which was passed down from old man Qi, go to the Qinwang Mansion with the first princess? Logically, it should be in the hands of Prince Yan as a dowry. How come it is back in old man Qi's hands?"

After hearing this, everyone in the stands looked at Jiang Ying with a deeper and more complicated gaze!
