Chapter 45 Gift List (2/2)



As the two were talking, they heard Yanyu come to report that Concubine Yun was coming.

Concubine Yun's belly was bigger than before, and her face was rosy, looking well-nourished. When she saw Su Chenyu, she smiled and said, "The princess is finally back. You have to stay in the general's mansion for the time being. If you don't come back, I will have to send someone to deliver the list of dowry to the general's mansion."

After Concubine Yun sat down, she asked the maid to show Su Chenyu the dowry list. Su Chenyu did not respond: "Mammy, I don't understand these things either. Just take a look."

Seeing that Su Chenyu didn't look at her, Concubine Yun's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, but she still smiled: "The princess is still thoughtful."

Nanny Xu glanced over and spoke in a bad tone: "Yun Fei, this is a princess of a country getting married after all, how can her dowry be similar to that of ordinary noble ladies? Also, Chen Fei is the princess' mother. Now that Chen Fei is gone, her things should naturally be taken away by the princess."

After hearing what Nanny Xu said so clearly, Concubine Yun looked at Su Chenyu. Su Chenyu just held the teacup and drank tea, as if this matter had nothing to do with her.

"Mammy, when the two princesses get married, we cannot favor one over the other. The dowry lists are the same, and Princess Rui'an has already seen it. Moreover, Princess Rui'an also put the betrothal gifts from the Lian family directly in the public treasury."

The list of betrothal gifts naturally had to be presented to Emperor Jing of Wei for his review, but he ignored all of that and gave it all to Concubine Shu and Concubine Yun.

When Concubine Yun saw the dowry sent by Baili Mansion, her eyes turned red, and she wished that all of it would fall into her own private storehouse. She was just waiting for Su Chenyu to hand over the betrothal gifts, but she didn't expect that Su Chenyu had no intention of doing so and actually wanted more dowry.

"It seems that Concubine Yun likes Princess Rui'an more, so Concubine Yun doesn't need to worry about our princess' wedding." Aunt Xu said with a fake smile, "Concubine Yun is pregnant with the heir, so she should rest more."

Seeing that an old maid dared to argue with her, Concubine Yun was unhappy: "Your master didn't say anything, but you dare to make your master's decision?"

"I have handed over all matters concerning the marriage to Madam Xu. Madam Xu's opinion is what I want." Su Chenyu's words were a slap in Concubine Yun's face.

Concubine Yun tried hard to suppress her anger: "Princess, the matter of dowry is not as simple as you think..."

Before Concubine Yun could finish her words, Concubine Shu interrupted her: "The matter of the dowry is indeed not simple. Since Concubine Yun has already taken care of it for Princess Rui'an, I will be responsible for Princess Fengyi's dowry."

Seeing Concubine Shu, Su Chenyu perked up a little: "Didn't Si Yi come with Concubine Shu?"

Concubine Shu sat down on the chair and said, "Last time, she got the kite made by Yanyu and she wanted to fly it. Today the weather is good, so she asked someone to take her there. I will bring her here."

Seeing Su Chenyu joking with Concubine Shu, Concubine Yun looked a little unhappy: "When did Princess Fengyi and Concubine Shu become so close? You actually kept it a secret from me?"

"What is there to hide?" Concubine Shu took the gift list from her personal maid and handed it to Madam Xu. "Madam, this is the dowry gift list I prepared for the princess. Please take a look at it first. I don't have much experience in this area. If there is anything I haven't thought of, Madam, please point it out."

Shufei is indeed a better concubine than Yunfei. Who would let a girl take a look at her dowry list?

Madam Xu took the dowry list prepared by Concubine Shu. Not to mention anything else, just seeing Concubine Chen's things written on the list made Madam Xu feel relieved.

After reading the entire gift list, there was nothing wrong with it. Madam Xu replied, "Just follow this gift list."

Seeing that Nanny Xu was not wrong, Concubine Yun instigated: "Princess, you should take another look at this gift list yourself. If there is anything inappropriate, it will be too late to change it by then."

“No need.” Su Chenyu raised her eyelids and glanced at Concubine Yun, with a hint of warning, “Let Madam Xu do it, and I will be relieved!”

Concubine Yun immediately snatched the gift list from Madam Xu's hands and said, "I would like to see what level of gift list can satisfy Madam Xu?"
