Originally, she thought that with her own abilities and the fact that she had plenty of money, wouldn't it be easy to achieve her goal?
So when everyone urged her, she didn't care.
But when I got there, I realized that there was a lot to do! Although Mrs. Wen gave a lot of dowry, they were all beautiful and expensive, and could be displayed to save face.
As for the delicate things in life after becoming a wife, they should be taken care of by her mother, but she has no mother...
My aunt put a lot of thought into it and helped a lot.
But because she had not been well off for many years, the things she bought were not bad, but they were definitely not fancy...
Master Qing and Yan Zhu had to take care of the shop, so Wen Yu had to take care of everything by herself.
Feeling anxious, he went around asking Qi Wu what he was doing, whether he was as busy as himself. As a result, he found that he was not at home all day as usual. He finally had some free time, but was dragged by his grandfather who had just returned home, either going out or entertaining guests, and he didn't worry about getting married at all.
Wen Yu couldn't help but secretly compete...
Fortunately, Mrs. Qi was very attentive and decorated the new house according to her own taste. Then, she would walk around inside and outside all day, and if she was not satisfied with something, she would go to the private library! She would take it out and put it on display, and then she would be dissatisfied again, and then she would go to the private library to change it.
It’s a lot of trouble.
Then, the maids reported to Xu Minghui one by one. Xu thought about how when she married into the mansion, the house was neatly decorated but had no personal touch. There were also limited valuable items...
Originally, she had been feeling unwell recently and had a rift with her husband. After this stimulation, she lay down on the bed and cried.
Tan was very distressed when she heard the news and immediately invited a doctor she knew well. The doctor said that the pregnancy was not looking good and the pregnant woman was not in a good mood either.
I was prescribed a few medicines, but they didn't help and I started to bleed.
Xu Minghui was so scared that she didn't dare to get out of bed.
Tan looked at the mess of household affairs and quickly said to her daughter-in-law Liu, "Xiaowu is getting married soon, and Minghui happens to be sick. Look at this mess, you should help to deal with it!"
Liu nodded in agreement and took it calmly.
Mrs. Qi knew that Xu was ill, so she quickly invited an old doctor who was close to the Cui family. However, Xu Minghui was still hypocritical, and even when the doctor came, she still refused to see him.
Qi Xiao was so angry that he thought she didn't know the difference between important and trivial matters. He yelled at her a few times before she behaved herself.
This imperial physician was very skilled. After taking the medicine, he gradually got better.
But the imperial physician advised: "Relax and rest in bed. Wait until the condition stabilizes before getting out of bed."
Xu didn't dare to make any more trouble and just lay there quietly for two days...
An experienced woman beside her was watching the household affairs proceeding in an orderly manner and was wondering: Why did the Third Lady take over everything about the Fifth Master's marriage? Not only was there a lot of money involved in holding a wedding banquet, but it also involved many aspects!
Why do I feel like the situation is a little...
…
Yan Zhu has a "long-time attendant" who calls out "Hey!" and is a beggar who has been following her closely lately.
Don't mention it, this "hello" is really useful! Yan Zhu doesn't need to tell her anything. With just a glance or even a thought, the other party will understand and make proper arrangements.
Yan Zhu was very satisfied with him and said to Wen Yu: "He is very capable. You don't need to pay him. Just feed him!"
When Wen Yu saw the cleaned "Hey!" for the first time, she felt that it looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it. Before she could figure it out, she was distracted by miscellaneous things.
Li Jiang was careful and told him to pay attention. Although the information sent back was messy, it didn't seem to be bad: he kept silent and never crossed the line. The key was to be obedient. Yan Zhu was disorganized in doing things. He would run around when Yan Zhu pointed east and west. He didn't care whether he repeated himself or not, and he didn't correct him when he was wrong.
Still sitting there helping Yan Zhu divide the lines...
Wen Yu instructed Sun Ying, Jin Huan and others: Be more careful.
She was packing up her things, giving away the fancy, inexpensive jewelry that she no longer wore to the girls in the store.
She also divided the jewelry left by her mother among her cousins and Yan Zhu.
As she was packing up, she suddenly found the hairpin that the peerless beauty had dropped and which she had picked up in Tianlong Temple.
Holding it in his hand, he thought of the beauty... He sighed for a while, and stopped thinking about it, and casually put it in the jewelry box for Yan Zhu.
Yan Zhu took it back and packed it up with great interest, while saying to the people around her: "Before, Ayu let me wear whatever jewelry I wanted! She is so good to me! This time, she gave me all the jewelry I like, and she remembers them all!"
"Hey, where did this come from?" Yan Zhu picked up the hairpin, "I've never seen her wear it before!? What is this... It's a bit weird..."
Yan Zhu didn't care. "This one isn't very pretty, but I like this one..."
The man looked at the hairpin in his hand, his eyes focused, his pupils reflecting the luster of that special material. The last bit of dullness in his eyes disappeared in an instant...
"Look! I like this pearl hairpin the most. It comes in three colors! It goes best with clothes!"
Jinhuan said, "This is beautiful! The girl gave it to me and my sister. It also has a pearl hairpin! I never thought that one day we would be able to wear pearls..."
Several people were talking and laughing.
The man held the hairpin in his hand, looked up at the sky outside the door, and stayed there quietly for a while. Then, he handed it to Yan Zhu: "This one is the best looking, keep it well, don't lose it..."
"Huh?! Why are you talking so much today?" Yan Zhu happily put it in a small box and put it into the box.
…
Two days before the wedding, Old Master Wen sent his third son, Wen Shuo, to Beijing.
Also coming with them were Guan and the two sisters Wen Jing and Wen Man.
That old man was also very powerful. He had already sent people to buy a yard in the capital, which was better than the one in the Wen family! Although Mrs. Wen took ruthless measures to control the turmoil, Wen Qian's reputation was not damaged too much. However, without Yuan Shi, the family's social life was still affected.
She had been cautious recently, so she was not in the mood to argue about Wen Shuo's arrival and the news of his property purchase. Instead, she was more gentle than before.
Wen Shuo went along with it, leaving Guan and his daughter to live in the Wen family, and he went to the newly bought yard.
Guan was a very capable person, and she was also very good at dealing with people. Everything she said and did was impeccable to Old Lady Wen.
The sisters Wen Jing and Wen Man were affectionate and kept chatting with the old lady. They looked very well-mannered.
Seeing them and thinking of Wen Huan, Old Lady Wen felt unhappy. She felt that, except for Wen Yu, none of her grandchildren were outstanding...
Guan brought the dowry that Old Master Wen gave to Wen Yu. Wen Yu opened the list and saw that there was silver, jewelry, high-quality medicinal materials, fresh cloth and some ornaments.
...Why is the old man so generous?!
She didn't know that the old man had been showing off his marriage to the Qi family, telling people that he had "someone above him" all the time! Don't say it, it works! After getting the benefits, he wanted to continue to maintain the relationship, so he was generous.
Guan also gave her own dowry, and even Wen Jing and Wen Man expressed their love.
Wen Yu couldn't help but sigh that Third Uncle was as good as Second Uncle.
But since Third Aunt had raised two girls so well, her character must be good. So, she wanted to get close to her.
Guan did not hide anything and told Wen Yu about her plan to go to the capital.
"Where we live, there are few good men. I have been looking for a marriage for Wen Jing for a long time, but I am not satisfied with her, so I want to try my luck in the capital. Ah Yu, Third Aunt wants to ask you for help in this matter. Please don't blame me for saying it so shamelessly."
"Aunt San is thinking about her daughter, how can I blame her!? I just don't know, what are your conditions?"
Guan stated the conditions: mainly the family background must be clean, the man must be ambitious, and preferably a scholar.
It can be heard that Guan is really thinking about her daughter...
Think about the Yuan family again, there is a world of difference between them!
Wen Yu nodded: "If you put it that way, I can help take a look!"
Guan was very happy.
He personally went through Wen Yu's dowry, which mainly included some private things.
There were some things that Wen Yu really didn't realize, and Guan taught her patiently.
This time, not only Wen Yu, but also Wen Jing, Wen Man, and Wen Su who came to listen to the lecture, benefited a lot.
Wen Jiao has recently hooked up with the princess, and without Wen Huan to bother her, Wen Yu will be the eldest in the family once she gets married, so she puts on airs. Wen Wan is even more snobbish. Even if the two come here, they don't care about these trivial matters! Mr. Zhang and his family finally arrived in the capital.
Wen Qian has been depressed lately, with his hair turning grey at an early age. When Master Zhang is settled in, he goes to find him and tells him about his hardships in tears...
Lord Zhang gave me a lot of comfort.
The relationship between the two people became closer.
