Chapter 286: Bride Gift and Dowry
Shen Luoyun was filled with surprise when he heard this, and he quickly stood up and knelt down to salute.
"Luo Yun thanks Sister Su..."
Su Hanchu stood up and walked quickly down to help her up.
"What are you doing? You're calling me sister..."
Shen Luoyun's eyes were red.
"Sister, this is the first time in my life that someone has thought so much about me. Auntie is a weak person and has always taught me to be tolerant. It was you who taught me how to support myself and how to deal with people. Sister, I was almost sent to..."
Su Hanchu naturally knew what she meant by what she said later. In fact, Shen Luoyun was a good girl, but she was persecuted by the feudal ideas of that era, which forced her to obey her family and almost went astray. However, since she followed him, she studied hard and had a good memory. She soon became independent. In addition, she had already seen the tricks of the harem, so this girl also did very well in the business world.
"Luo Yun, the past is over. Isn't everything fine now? Come, let's sit down and talk."
Shen Luoyun sat down with Su Hanchu, his eyes full of gratitude. He felt very lucky to have met Su Hanchu in this life.
"Sister, thank you. I will definitely manage your business in the future to repay your kindness to me. Lord Lu said that after we get married, I can still continue to work for you."
Su Hanchu spoke with a smile.
"You and Hanzhi are like my own sisters to me. Lu Zhan is also a friend of ours. I have prepared the betrothal gifts for you to marry Lu Zhan. In addition, I will personally prepare a dowry for you in the amount of the betrothal gifts..."
Shen Luoyun was frightened and stood up hurriedly.
"Sister, how can I do this? The Shen family will also prepare my dowry. Although my dowry as a concubine's daughter shouldn't be much, but sister, you have been very good to me. How can I still ask you to prepare my dowry for me?"
Su Hanchu smiled and extended his hand to her.
"You already call me sister, so why are you being so polite to me? As an elder sister, isn't it natural for me to prepare a dowry for my younger sister?"
Shen Luoyun placed her hand in Su Hanchu's, slowly sat down on a chair beside her, and spoke with tears in her eyes.
"Sister, how can Luo Yun express his gratitude to you?"
Su Hanchu patted the back of her hand.
"I don't need you to express any gratitude. Just protect me from now on. In the future, you will be the head of a county, and I will still be a commoner."
Shen Luoyun hurriedly spoke after hearing this.
"Sister, who cares about the county lord or princess? I, Shen Luoyun, am yours, and I will listen to you all my life."
The two chatted for a long time before Shen Luoyun was reluctant to say goodbye to Su Hanchu.
As a result, as soon as he walked out of the gate of Jun Mansion.
I saw Lu Zhan waiting not far away, looking at me with a smile on his face.
"Falling Cloud."
Shen Luoyun had no choice but to walk forward with Qingmei in surprise. After all, they were outside and they still saluted politely.
"Lord Lu."
Lu Zhan spoke again to remind him.
"Didn't we agree on this? Just call me A-Zhan."
Then he reached out to her.
"I've been assigned a house now. Uncle Liu arranged for someone to clean it out for me. Would you like to go and take a look?"
The house will be where you live after you get married. It would be good if you could go and see it in advance. Shen Luoyun gently put her hand in Lu Zhan's and let him help her get into the carriage.
"good."
Lu Zhan raised a smile and followed her into the carriage.
He took out a bag of pastries, opened it, took out a piece of pastry and handed it to Shen Luoyun.
"This is the peach blossom cake that Junfu made recently. I think it tastes pretty good, so I asked the kitchen for one. You can try it. If you like it, we will let the maid learn how to make it."
Shen Luoyun leisurely reached out and took it.
"Peach Blossom Cake, it seems this was probably Sister Su's idea. I drank pear blossom tea in the inner courtyard today. Sister Su really has a special liking for all kinds of flower tea cakes."
After saying that, he took a bite of the peach blossom cake, and his mouth was filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms.
"Well, you are indeed worthy of being Sister Su. Even the best pastry shop in the northwest can't make such a fragrant and delicious peach blossom cake."
On the Jun family's side.
Ping'er came forward and added more flower tea to Su Hanchu's cup.
"Madam, please have some more tea. We have been talking for so long. I will have someone bring in some more cakes."
Su Hanchu reached out and took the tea.
"It's a rare opportunity to have some free time, so it's nice to chat about family matters."
Ping'er looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Su Hanchu gestured for her to sit down.
"Why don't you sit down and have some tea with us? There's no outsider here, and the relationship between us is no less than that between Hanzhi and Luoyun."
When there was no one around, Ping'er was not restrained and sat down naturally, pouring herself a cup of tea.
"Madam, we have already paid their betrothal gifts, and now we have to prepare a dowry. This will cost the mansion a lot of money."
Su Hanchu smiled and reached out to tap Ping'er's head.
"You girl, you're usually so smart, why are you so confused now? Is it even a problem if it can be solved with money? Are we short of money?"
Ping'er thought about the marriages between the two villages, the betrothal gifts and dowries, and the money that would be spent would flow away like water, and she still felt sad.
"But ma'am, you are being too generous. It hurts me to see it."
Su Hanchu spoke with a smile.
"You don't understand this, do you? Li Xiao has a promising future. His reward hasn't come down yet, and he's getting married in the northwest. If we don't come forward to arrange it for him, who will? Although his mother has earned some income from growing mushrooms in the past two years, it's really too difficult to organize a wedding for a great general.
As for Hanzhi, she's earned so much money for us. The entire livelihood is now under her name. What's wrong with me buying her a dowry? Isn't that what I should do? As for Lu Zhan, he's ours.
And Luo Yun, although this girl almost went astray because she was a concubine's daughter, she is also a truly good girl. She is very straightforward in her work. With gradual cultivation, she will definitely be able to do many great things for me in the future. Don't be stingy with the money, I will not give you less of your share with Liu Shan. When are you planning to get married?"
The topic suddenly turned to herself, and Ping'er spoke quickly.
"Madam, Ping'er will not marry. Ping'er will follow you for the rest of her life."
Su Hanchu smiled and spoke after hearing this.
"Then we'll get married. You can still live in the mansion and continue working. There's nothing different now. Of course, I have to wait for Liu Shan to come and ask for the marriage personally. You follow me all the way, so he has to value you enough before I will agree to the marriage."
Ping'er's whole face turned red.
"lady…………"
When Su Hanchu saw this, he stopped teasing her.
"Okay, since you're shy, I won't say anything. There will be plenty of time and opportunities later. Now you have to do something."
