Chapter 3: Gift Makeup

When Lu Lingyun heard this, her eyes lit up slightly.

She thought of how the young master in her previous life was willing to give up his family property and parents for her and boldly eloped.

That concubine is indeed not an ordinary person.

Just, it doesn't matter.

"She doesn't offend me, and I don't offend her." Lu Lingjun smiled faintly.

She didn't care at all about it as it was just to give Cheng Yunshuo an extra room of golden sparrows.

She is not a silly woman like Lu Hanyi who insists on competing with the concubine.

She got married to be the mistress of the house, not to compete for her favor.

As long as the canary put herself in the right position, got what she wanted and didn't cross the line, she would naturally not make things difficult for her.

"Okay," Wang Qiluo stared at her and was relieved. She looked at her maid, "Cui Xin, bring the things up."

"What?"

Lu Lingyun looked up and saw Cui Xin coming forward carrying a heavy makeup box.

Wang Qiluo smiled and opened her makeup box, revealing a complete set of headwear.

A jade top hairpin, a pair of red jade butterfly hairpins, a pair of auspicious cloud-inlaid pearl long hairpins, a gold bead gold center, a split center, a pair of Sichuan brocade gold thread gilt jade inlaid hairpins, a pair of jade earrings, a pair of jade bracelets, a pair of ruby ​​filigree rings, several pairs of small hairpins, pecking needles, and flower hairpins.

Then she opened the makeup box below, and in the secret compartment was a packet of gold leaves and a stack of banknotes.

A total of one thousand taels.

"This is the makeup my mother gave you."

When Lu Lingyun saw the full bag, her eyes turned red again.

In her previous life, she was at home preparing for her wedding and had no time to see Wang Qiluo, nor did she allow anyone to come. She only heard from Zhiran that she had brought something with her, and was seen by her stepmother Liu, who invited her into the side hall and helped her deliver the things over.

It was delivered, but there was only one thousand and two taels of silver.

She didn't know that there were so many things.

"Qiluo..."

"Don't be touched. When I came in just now, I ran into your stepmother. She saw me taking something and asked me to give it to you. If your maid hadn't come over, I wouldn't know whether I should give it to her or not! Don't tell them."

Lu Lingyun burst into laughter and said, "Thank you and Auntie."

"My mother has always treated you as her daughter, and we are sisters. Now that you have made up your mind, we will support you. If you are wronged in the Marquis' Mansion in the future, just come to us."

"Yeah." Lu Lingyun nodded.

She couldn't help but make up her mind that in this life, in addition to living a good life herself, she would also take good care of them.

Never let the tragedy of the previous life happen again.

After bidding farewell to Wang Qiluo, Lu Lingyun asked someone to put the things sent by the Wang family into the bottom of the box.

In the evening, Lu Lingjun asked Zhiran to pick out some cheap jewelry and gold and silver and brought them to Liu's yard.

The Liu family courtyard has been very busy recently.

Her family members and the families of some of Lu's disciples came in turn.

The Lu family married off two daughters in succession, and any one of them who was close to them would come over to give some gifts.

"Mother."

After reporting, Lu Lingjun stood in the room with Zhiran.

At this time, there was a middle-aged woman sitting in Liu's room. Lu Lingyun recognized her as Liu's sister-in-law.

"This must be Lingyun! I haven't seen you for such a long time. You have grown into a very graceful young lady. You look worthy of being the wife of a marquis!" Sister-in-law Liu smiled when she saw Lu Lingyun.

When Liu heard this, her smiling face became a little unhappy.

This marriage was originally to be given to his own daughter, who would become the lady of a noble marquisate in the future. But the girl insisted on marrying Li Er, saying that she had to look far ahead, that Li Er would surely become a high-ranking official in the future, and that she wanted to be a lady of honor.

At first, Liu thought she was crazy, but she could not stand her constant nagging day and night. She even said that if she was allowed to marry into the Marquis's family, she would die with Master Cheng and his concubine that night.

She thought about it for a long time, thinking that Master Cheng might not be a good match. Only after Lu Hanyi swore and cursed that Li Er would become very successful did she agree to the marriage exchange.

No way, this huge wealth must not fall into the hands of Lu Lingyun.

Hearing her sister-in-law's flattering words today, she couldn't help feeling depressed.

As for Lu Lingyun, how could she be worthy of marrying into the marquis's mansion and becoming a lady and suppressing her daughter?

She was unhappy, but the sister-in-law of the Liu family didn't care. If Lu Lingjun became the wife of the Marquis, she would be noble in the future. There would only be benefits to curry favor with her now.

"Aunt." Lu Lingyun said obediently.

"What a good child. I have always felt that Lingyun is extraordinary, smart and clever, and much more sensible than Hanyi. Pingniang, don't you agree?"

Liu rolled her eyes inwardly and changed the subject, "Lingyun, what are you doing here?"

Lu Lingjun looked back at Zhiran, and Zhiran handed him a small box.

"Today I received some makeup from Wang's younger sister, and I want to share half of it with her." Lu Lingyun opened the makeup box, which contained some pearls and jade jewelry, as well as some gold and silver ingots.

The gold and silver ingots looked full, and the things were big and eye-catching.

But in reality, it was only about a hundred taels of silver, and the jewelry was the kind that looked good but was not worth the money.

Looks good on the face.

"Wow, so many!" Sister-in-law Liu's eyes lit up when she saw the full jewelry box.

"My sister and I are getting married on the same date, so logically the elder sister should also buy some makeup. Now that I have it, I want to share half with Han Yi." Lu Lingyun smiled cleverly.

"You are such a sensible child!" Liu's sister-in-law praised Lu Lingyun endlessly, "They are sisters who are getting married at the same time, and logically, relatives and friends should give half of the makeup to each of them. It's really hard for her to have such a heart."

After she said this, Liu's face became even uglier.

What does this mean?

If Lu Lingyun can give half of the bonus to Lu Hanyi, then shouldn’t Lu Hanyi also give half to Lu Lingyun!

She was a smart person. The things Lu Lingyun brought were not cheap, but if you looked closely, they were all ordinary stuff, only a hundred or so taels in total. The things she bought at home would cost hundreds or even thousands of taels!

But Lu Lingyun took the initiative and brought the things to her door, how could she refuse!

"Yes, yes." Liu bit her teeth silently. She looked at Lu Lingyun and said, "Are these all given to you by the Wang family?"

"Of course." Lu Lingyun didn't even blush when she lied.

Anyway, it’s impossible for Liu to go to the Wang family to ask.

Just like in her previous life, she couldn't ask Wang Qiluo to verify what she had given.

She used a dirty trick, and now she will pay her back!

Liu couldn't ask a second question. The gift was a gift, no matter how ordinary it was, it was still a gift. What could she say? Call him stingy? Give him a rubbish?

I can't curse, I can only swallow it!

The sister-in-law of the Liu family beside him also helped, "Lingyun, your aunt also prepared some makeup for you and gave it to your mother. I will ask your mother to bring it to you later, right, Pingniang?"

"Yes, yes," Liu said with aggrieved heart, "your sister just happened to get a lot of makeup today, and I was going to send you some, and you came just in time."

Lu Lingyun followed suit and said, "Thank you, mother. Zhiran, seal the bottom of the box when you take it back. These are the treasures given to me by my dearest relatives. When the time comes, you must ask mother's nanny who sent them and register them one by one. Don't miss anything. These are the thoughts of my family."
