Everyone was amazed, thinking that Princess Yu was not just adding makeup to her sister, but clearly preparing a dowry! With more than a hundred wooden boxes carried out, even the dignified Prince Li's Mansion would be frightened by the momentum.
Xiang Rong sighed and said, "I was originally worried that my fourth sister would be looked down upon by the servants of Prince Li's Mansion after she married. After all, we don't have our mother's family to support us. Now, I can rest assured. The things and money given by my second sister are enough to buy two cities, not to mention Prince Li's Mansion. Who dares to look down on our sister?"
Feng Yuheng told Fendai: "I will give you everything I can, but you still have to live your life on your own. These can support you, but they cannot support the true feelings between people. Servants can be won over by gold and silver, but if the person you spend your life with only cares about your money one day, then don't hesitate, leave him."
Her words reminded Fen Dai and Xiang Rong of the Feng Mansion. Feng Jinyuan helped Shen Shi to ascend to the throne. Shen Shi was delighted to think that Feng Jinyuan had her in his heart. She was also grateful for her staying in Fengtong County for so many years to take care of the old lady and spending all her family wealth to pave the way for Feng Jinyuan's imperial examination. Who would have thought that Feng Jinyuan didn't have that heart. Taking care of the old lady for so many years? He was not grateful. Spending all his family wealth? He also thought Shen Shi was too cheap. But he really valued the wealth of the Shen family, so he gave her the position of mistress.
So, Shen was actually a pitiful person. She and Feng Jinyuan were from the same hometown and had known each other since childhood, many years earlier than Yao. She was indeed virtuous before marriage, and she took care of the old lady for so many years without any status. The old lady may have promised that she would be Jinyuan's wife in the future. Who would have thought that Feng Jinyuan would forget his childhood sweetheart Shen after becoming the top scholar, and instead married the daughter of the Yao family, a wealthy family in Kyoto, and took advantage of the Yao family's power to become an official. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to Shen.
Fen Dai understood what Feng Yuheng meant. She nodded heavily and promised, "Don't worry, Second Sister. I married him because he treats me sincerely. If one day this sincerity is gone, I will never give in or compromise myself."
The maid Dongying was also listening, thinking about conveying this to the Fifth Prince, so that the Fifth Prince would understand that his daughter also has a backer, and don't think that they married him because he is a prince. Her daughter married for love, not power. If love is not there, the daughter has a more powerful second sister waiting behind!
Fen Dai looked at the wooden boxes in the yard, a total of 128 of them, promising her an enviable wedding. Her nose was sour, and she held Feng Yuheng's hand and said, "Second sister, I did that thing at the beginning, and then I kept making things difficult for you and third sister. I didn't expect you to forgive me and treat me so well. I thought my life was a tragedy, with no relatives or friends, barely surviving, but not feeling the joy of living. Unexpectedly, overnight, I had everything again. How can you ask me to repay this love?"
Feng Yuheng smiled bitterly, "How can a sister ask a younger sister to repay her kindness? I have no intention of making things difficult for anyone. Whether it's you or Feng Chenyu, we were relatives before we became enemies. I always hope that the family will be harmonious and the father will be kind and the son will be filial. Unfortunately, this is too difficult for the Feng family. Fortunately, it's all in the past. Don't think too much. Just treat it as a new beginning. Be good in the future. Once you enter the door of Prince Li's Mansion, forget everything about the Feng family in the past. Remember, from now on, you are the daughter-in-law of the Xuan family and a member of the royal family. Your name will be separated from the Feng family and included in the royal genealogy. You don't need to regret that you are a legitimate daughter in this life, because you will be the prince's wife like me. We sisters are finally equal."
Fendai's tears flowed loudly. Equality finally came. She had waited for so many years for this equality! She had wanted so much to make her status noble. Now, she finally had everything she wanted!
Feng Yuheng wiped her tears, and was filled with emotion. In fact, thinking back, Feng Fendai, who tried every means to get close to Xuan Tianming, was just a ten-year-old girl. Why did she bother with a ten-year-old child? It was that the children of this era were too precocious. If it were in the future, if a ten-year-old sister said that she liked her brother-in-law, her relatives would only think it was a cute joke. She was also influenced by the environment of the Feng family. Now she has jumped out of that vicious circle and is looking to the future. The sky will clear after the rain.
The sisters were crying and laughing at the same time, when they saw another servant running over with a look of surprise outside the door, and said loudly to Fendai: "Miss! Someone has come to give you a gift again, this time it's from the Prince Yu's Mansion, and it's His Highness the Ninth Prince who has brought you something!"
Fen Dai was surprised and turned to look at Feng Yu Heng, and saw Feng Yu Heng smiling and nodding: "He is your brother-in-law, and from tomorrow on he will still be your uncle-in-law, so this gift should be given to him."
Servants from Prince Yu's Mansion came in one after another to present gifts. The things they brought included jewelry, clothes, wine, food and snacks. The one who came to present gifts was Madam Zhou. She stepped forward and first bowed to Feng Yuheng according to the rules, and then bowed greatly to Fendai. Fendai was so scared that she hurried forward to support him. Madam Zhou was a first-rank imperial concubine, how could she dare to accept such a gift? But Madam Zhou said, "Even if it was not necessary in the past, it must be performed now! You are the legal wife of Prince Li, a legitimate daughter-in-law of the royal family, just like our Princess Yu. As a slave, Princess Li should accept this gift." After that, she finished the ceremony seriously, then stood up and said to Fendai, "His Royal Highness Prince Yu sent Princess Li a wedding gift, which includes jewelry carefully selected from the storehouse of Prince Yu's Mansion, and four-season dresses made by the tailors of the palace clothing workshop. These wine, food and snacks are from Xianya Tower. His Royal Highness Prince Yu said that they are sent to you all for a drink tonight."
There was a cheer in Fendai's small courtyard. Everyone was more interested in the wine and food in Xianya Tower. After Madam Zhou left, the servants quickly set up the table in the yard, and the masters sat down at the table and raised their glasses to drink.
At the same time, at Prince Li's mansion, the fifth prince Xuan Tianyan heard from the servants that Fendai had started drinking, and he stood up and wanted to rush out of the mansion. The servants were so scared that they quickly stopped him and kept persuading him: "Your Highness, you can't go! This wedding is very particular, and the newlyweds must not see each other on the first night!"
"Why are there so many rules? Didn't you hear that they were all drinking? I don't know how much that girl can drink? She gets drunk after just a few sips! If she gets really drunk, how will she get into the bridal sedan tomorrow?"
"Oh, Your Highness! Don't worry about it. Isn't it said that Princess Yu is here too? How could she get drunk with her here? Even if she is really drunk, there must be sobering medicine!"
After hearing this, Xuan Tianyan was relieved. Yes! There is a miracle doctor here! Then there is nothing to be afraid of.
However, the miracle doctor was useless. At the girlfriends' party before the wedding, Feng Fendai really drank too much. And not only did Feng Fendai drink too much, Feng Yuheng also drank too much...
As a result, the next day, the fifth prince came to pick up the bride in person, but he saw that the courtyard was quiet and there was no joyous atmosphere of sending off the bride. He felt a pang in his heart. Damn it, could that girl have changed her mind again?
In fact, the situation in the courtyard was like this: "Miss, wake up! The wedding sedan of Prince Li's Mansion has been carried to the door. It's the Fifth Prince who has come in person!"
The woman called Feng Fendai was still sleeping soundly.
"Miss! Get up! Open your eyes! Don't do this!"
The person called, Feng Yuheng, was still sleeping soundly.
"Xiangrong, wake up quickly. You drank so much wine just after you got better. If something happens to you, how will your mother live?"
The person called Feng Xiangrong was still sleeping soundly.
The three sisters of the Feng family slept soundly, completely forgetting that there was a big wedding today. However, Feng Zirui and Xiaobao were sober and had not drunk a drop of wine. Zirui dragged Xiaobao outside the door and looked at Xuan Tianyan, who was riding on a tall horse and wearing a red robe to pick up the bride, and said, "The sisters are all drunk and none of them woke up. How about we postpone the wedding to another day?"
Xuan Tianyan was furious, “No! I have waited so long for this day. Even if she is drunk and asleep, I will carry her back to the palace!” After saying that, he dismounted and rushed into the yard.
Soon, Xuan Tianyan really carried Feng Fendai out. The bride was wearing a bright red wedding gown and a wedding scarf on her head. Her arms were hanging around Xuan Tianyan's neck. It was hard to tell whether she was awake or asleep. As a result, the onlookers started to talk about it. Some people said, "How can the groom come to pick up the bride himself? Shouldn't the matchmaker come? The groom should just wait at home."
Others said: "The Fifth Prince has been married so many times, it's nothing new."
Someone immediately retorted, "Hey! This time it's different. This time we're marrying a principal wife, and the one we're marrying is the fourth young lady of the Feng family. I heard that Princess Yu and the fourth young lady have reconciled. They are sisters. With this reconciliation, the status and position of the fourth young lady of the Feng family will be very different from before."
Despite all the discussion, most people were attracted by the bright red wedding gown that the lady was wearing. They felt that the gown was glittering and dazzling, and under the sun, they could see a faint phoenix pattern. Most people didn't recognize it, but some people with eyes could see it and exclaimed, "Oh my God, isn't that the legendary lover's brocade?"
"Beloved Brocade? One of the five treasures, Beloved Brocade, which can only be obtained once every three years?"
"That should be it! Only the Good Man Brocade can emit such a lustre, and only the Good Man Brocade can present a faint phoenix pattern on the material without any painting."
"It's impossible for Fourth Miss Feng to have that thing. It's also hard for the Fifth Prince to get it. It is said that all the five-treasure fabrics of Dashun were given by the Emperor to Concubine Yun. Later, the Ninth Prince gave a lot to Princess Yu. This Liangren brocade of Fourth Miss Feng should have been given by Princess Yu."
"Princess Yu is really generous! I am lucky to be her sister. This Fourth Miss Feng didn't find her conscience until her wedding and reconciled with her sister. All the days before that were wasted."
Listening to people's discussions, Xuan Tianyan was in a good mood. Then he looked at the bride in his arms, whose face was filled with unstoppable happiness...
