Chapter 119 Dowry
"Oh, go get it from Liu'er. If you don't understand something, go ask Liu'er." She let her brother do whatever he wanted.
With her current status in the imperial city, as long as he doesn't kill or burn anything, it's all a small matter.
"Okay, thank you, big sister." Xia Zixuan was busy outside.
As the Chinese New Year drew near, Wen Li finally came to see Xia Yutong. "Oh, you finally showed up! I thought you were planning to show up only for the wedding," Xia Yutong teased as she looked at the person who had appeared before her.
"Xiaotong, look at me." Wen Li turned around in front of Xia Yutong, "I've lost weight."
He has been kept busy like a dog these days.
Matters such as deciding on a residence, decorating it, selecting personnel, etc., although these may seem like trivial matters, they can all cost lives.
He did everything himself just to give her the safest home.
Xia Yutong looked at him with pity and said, "You've indeed lost weight, but you're more charming than before." I haven't seen you for a long time and I miss you very much.
Who says women have no desires?
She has it too.
With such a good man in front of me, I would be at a loss if I didn’t take him.
Without waiting for Wen Li to take the initiative, Xia Yutong transformed into a hungry wolf and directly...
It was a rare occasion for her to take the initiative, and Wen Li was enjoying it so much.
This night is a sleepless night.
During the New Year, after the Emperor of Dayan put down his pen, all civil and military officials were given a holiday.
Wen Li rarely had a few days of free time, so he stayed in the Xia Mansion and didn't go anywhere.
Because of the store opening, Xia Zixuan and Jiang Ce rarely come back.
I've been staying in the shop all the time, and business is really good.
Liu'er was even more creative. She asked the waiter to give Juxianju discount cards to those who came to Yuyan or to buy health-care wine.
But this hot pot restaurant can be opened among the wealthy ladies.
Because of the good taste and reasonable price, and in the middle of winter, when a few close friends get together, the business is getting more and more popular.
Fortunately, they borrowed money to buy this big restaurant, otherwise there would be no place for customers to sit when business is good.
The money flowed into their pockets like water, making them very happy.
I slept in the store all day and didn't know when I went home.
Not to mention that now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, the store’s business is even better.
In the Xia Mansion, Wen Li was quietly accompanying his lover.
"Xiaotong, your mahjong is indeed simpler than Majiang, and more interesting." Wen Li played mahjong with Xia Yu every day, and his life was so carefree.
"Of course, don't you see who I am?" Xia Yutong was so proud.
She also asked Liu'er to hire craftsmen to carve a lot of them, to be used as gifts during the New Year.
This thing is simple and easy to imitate, so I don't plan to make it a business.
After it was made, she immediately had it delivered to the eldest princess.
But she was so happy that she waited at home every day and refused to go anywhere.
If it weren't for the New Year, she wouldn't have planned to leave the house. Wouldn't it be great to just stay at home and play with her staff.
"Have you made much?" He thought he could use it as a gift.
"Yes, do you want it?" Xia Yutong asked somewhat confusedly.
Wen Li nodded and said, "Yeah, it's the New Year." No need to say anything else.
"Oh." Xia Yutong was not stupid. "You can ask Dayi and the others to go find Liu'er. They are all with her."
She planned to make more to give as gifts to Yuyan.
Don't underestimate the noble ladies in Yuyan. She is the overlord of the imperial city. As long as she gets their love, Yuyan will live forever.
These are all resources in her hands.
Isn't this the reason why Wen Li wants this mahjong?
"That's great." Wen Li looked doting.
What Xia Yutong didn't know was that Wen Li not only took away all the mahjong in Liu'er's hands, but also took away her craftsmen.
Liu Er was so angry that she came directly to ask her own lady for help.
Xia Yutong was also angry.
In the end, Xia Yutong was so angry that she demanded everything from Wen Li, and she was not allowed to go to bed with him if he didn't give it to her.
Wen Li had no choice but to compromise.
With the arrival of the New Year, the Great Yan Dynasty ushered in a new year.
The twenty-fourth year of Dayan.
Since Xia Yutong has not yet married, she does not need to attend the palace banquet.
The New Year in the imperial city is much more lively than in other places. There is no curfew in the imperial city within the fifteen days of the New Year.
Everyone works all night long.
Wen Li also took Xia Yutong to play around the entire imperial city.
With him leading the way, eating, drinking and having fun are a breeze.
Even Xia Zixuan, who didn't get along with Wen Li, had a lot of fun playing with Jiang Ce and the others.
"Xiaotong, I love you." Standing at the highest point of the imperial city, Wen Li pulled Xia Yutong over and kissed her directly.
Looking at the fireworks below the city, Xia Yutong was distracted for a moment. She didn't expect that she was being bullied.
The two of them were immersed in a deep kiss, as if they were alone.
…
The days of leisure only last so long. After the great dynasty, everything returns to normal.
The marriage between Wen Li and the second prince became the most important matter in the court.
The second prince's wedding was much more grand than the eldest prince's.
But these are not what Wen Li wants. As the eldest prince, he has to follow all the necessary etiquette and rules. More depends on the woman's side.
Wen Li has been sending things to the Xia Mansion every day these days, and he does it very secretly.
Uncle Feng even rushed back to the imperial city from other places.
With Uncle Feng setting up the formation in the imperial city, Wen Li finally felt a little relieved.
"Sister, I'm afraid these things are not enough." Xia Zixuan looked at the dowry prepared by his parents and said with a worried look on his face.
Just as they were setting off, Xia's father also prepared the dowry at home, and the An family escorted the dowry to the imperial city.
Finally arrived after the Chinese New Year.
Looking at the dowry that took up several rooms, Xia Yutong's lips twitched violently.
"If this is not enough, then what is enough?" She was speechless.
Of course, she also felt the love of family.
"You don't need to take many of the things here with you. Just leave them here. Don't worry about the dowry. Wen Li sent a lot of things. Besides, will your eldest sister let herself suffer?"
Of course, it would be better if she wasn't allowed to show off her wedding dress.
My hands hurt now.
"No, my parents won't agree." These things are a gift from my parents, I can't refuse them.
"But if you give me everything, what will happen to my family?" Xia Yutong's heart leaned towards her parents' home. "I'm at home, don't worry." She knew her elder sister cared about her family, but her family couldn't let her suffer any injustice.
"Okay, take all these banknotes back. Big sister has her own money, and besides, it's just a way to show off." Xia Yutong understood what her family members were thinking.
She was afraid that if her dowry was too little, she would be looked down upon.
"Xia Xue." He called out to the outside, "Go and get the box from my room." That was the thing that really stood out.
Soon, Xia Xue brought the things over.
"Open it and take a look." Xia Yutong looked at Xiaoxuan and asked him to open it.
Xia Zixuan didn't understand, but he opened the box obediently.
When he saw what was inside, he was completely dumbfounded.
"Sister, these things, these things..." He was so shocked that he couldn't finish his words.
