Chapter 560 The Day Before the Wedding
"This is the farm, shop, and house that my father, the king, and my mother, the queen, gave to Sister Yu. Luming Mountain has also been transferred to Sister Yu's name."
Jiang Yunwan took it and looked through it carefully. The ten shops not only had a good location, but also had considerable monthly revenue. The farm was located in Lin County and had a good harvest every year, not to mention several properties. There was also a thick stack of high-value silver bills under the box.
My parents-in-law really treat Yu Jie'er as their own granddaughter.
"Tomorrow I will register all of these in the dowry list. Now that the dowry is almost ready, I will show it to Mother and Father tomorrow night for their review and have it stamped with the royal seal. We will make three copies, one for us to keep, one for Sister Yu, and one for the Mu family."
Song Mingen: "No hurry, wait a moment."
"What are you waiting for? There's a lot to do next."
"Someone will send a dowry."
Jiang Yunwan understood instantly, "You don't want Sister Yu to be recognized by Du Henian and Su Beiqing, do you still want their dowry?"
"It's not me who wants it, but they want to give Sister Yu a dowry." Song Mingen said solemnly, "...They are Sister Yu's biological parents, so of course they should give her a dowry. How can they not give her a dowry if they haven't raised her? They don't love Sister Yu at all. I will definitely teach Du Henian a lesson! They and his wife will never be able to see Sister Yu at the beginning or end of the month. Old Madam Du has only one condition to see Sister Yu: move to the palace."
"Hey, don't worry, don't get excited. The Du family will definitely give a dowry. If it hasn't been sent yet, it must be because it's not ready yet."
The Du family had already prepared the dowry.
Song Yu and her four sisters will get married on the eighth day of next month. The Du family is waiting for Song Yu to return home at the end of this month so that she can see with her own eyes the dowry they have prepared for her.
When Song Yu returned home at the end of the month, Du Ye took her directly to Zhuohuayuan.
When Song Yu saw the 108 dowries in the yard, her first reaction was that she was showing off her wealth just by getting married!
The dowry prepared by the Du family plus the 188 dowries prepared by my parents, plus four more sets, makes a total of 300 sets, and the total amount is as high as one million taels of silver notes!
This is too rich and too ostentatious.
Seeing her astonishment, Du Ye smiled and said, "These were all prepared by me, your parents, and your three brothers. Each one is a masterpiece. Do you like it?"
"Grandma, I like it very much. My parents and grandma also prepared a lot. It's too much when added together. Bringing such a large dowry to get married is too ostentatious and shows off our wealth."
"Getting married is a big deal. As your elders, we naturally want you to marry with splendor. Don't be afraid of showing off your wealth. You are blessed enough to handle it. Just do more good deeds in the future."
Song Yu was no longer afraid of being envied after hearing this. "Yes, Grandma, I will do more good deeds in the future to accumulate more blessings for myself."
Du Yeshi remembered Du Henian's instructions, "Will you marry from the Du Mansion on the wedding day?"
"Three days before the wedding, my father will come personally to take you to stay at the palace..."
Du Ye was heartbroken because her own granddaughter would not marry out of the Du family, and their family was the only one with such a granddaughter in the capital.
"Okay, grandma will have someone carry the dowry to the palace later."
"Have them send it by truck, covered with tarpaulin."
Mrs. Du Ye was relieved that her precious granddaughter was well educated and knew to keep a low profile and not show off her wealth.
Song Mingen looked at the 108 dowries sent by the Du family. Every item was a good item and he was very satisfied.
Du Henian was not so foolish as not to give a dowry.
"Aqiu!" Du Henian sneezed loudly, "Xiao Hongye must be talking about me, and he's not saying anything nice!"
"Alright, alright, don't be upset. It's great that Sister Yu is marrying out of Prince Rong's mansion. On that day, Sister Yu's wedding will be a grand affair, and everyone will be envious. The Mu family won't let Sister Yu get upset, they will only flatter her."
Du Henian pouted and asked, "Which family will Sister Yu go back to?"
Su Beiqing lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, "Sister Yu is now a royal daughter. When she returns home, she will first go to Prince Rong's Mansion. She will naturally not forget our mother and will definitely bring Prince Mu to the Du Mansion."
"Xiao Hongye must keep Sister Yu for a day. Even if he wants to come back to see his mother, it will be the next day. Eh, why are you so unhappy?"
Several years passed and he still couldn't figure it out.
Su Beiqing was helpless. "Let's do it the next day. I'm afraid Sister Yu won't come. Do you want Sister Yu to come or not?"
"return."
"That's it, what's the problem?"
"Grandma and Grandpa." Two boys, one big and one small, entered the room. "What's wrong?"
Su Beiqing's face instantly showed kindness, "Your grandfather misses your aunt again."
The two children looked at each other. It had not been long since their aunt returned, and their grandfather started thinking about it.
It seems that they guessed correctly that grandfather likes girls the best.
Half an incense stick later, Du Henian's loud laughter was heard in the room.
Du Henian was so coaxed by his two grandsons that he temporarily forgot about Song Yu.
The two brothers returned to Gong Lingyu's room.
"Mother, please give birth to a younger sister. Grandfather likes girls. When you have a younger sister, your aunt will come back and Grandfather won't be so unhappy."
Gong Lingyu stroked her belly and said with a smile: "Mom is already pregnant. We won't know whether it's a boy or a girl until the baby is born."
Dabao: "It's my sister, it must be my sister."
Erbao: "I will definitely give birth to a sister."
A few months later, the fourth child was also a son.
Du Zhixu and Du Zhixu each had three sons, but no daughter.
Du Henian felt even more miserable. His daughter was taken away by someone. Doesn’t he deserve to have a granddaughter?
Fortunately, he had a great-granddaughter, who was the eldest daughter born to the eldest grandson, and looked 40% to 50% like Song Yu. However, he didn't have many years to live at that time, so that's another story.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day before the wedding, and among the three families, the Mu family was the busiest.
Marrying a wife and a daughter on the same day is also unique in the capital.
"A Fei, does my wedding dress look good on me?"
Xiao Fei looked at Mu Jingxing with envy, his eyes shining, "Beautiful, beautiful, just like a fairy who has been banished to the earth, even I am bewildered. Why am I a man and not a woman?"
"Don't be poor."
"What I said is the truth. The prince is beautiful. I don't know what words to use to describe him, but he is so handsome that you never get tired of looking at him. The princess will be fascinated by him when she sees him."
Mu Jingxing remembered that Song Yu said he looked good even when he didn't breathe, so it must be true.
"Go take a nap first, and get up at 2:30 AM tomorrow to pick up the bride."
Xiao Fei couldn't help but purse his lips and smile secretly. Is the prince so impatient that he wants to bring the princess back to get married and then go straight into the bridal chamber?
"The princess had just gotten up and was getting ready at that hour, so we couldn't go pick up the bride before daybreak."
"My sister is also up at that time. Tomorrow I will go to pick up the bride and cannot send her off to get married. I want to spend more time with her before the wedding."
At two quarters past three in the morning, Mu Jingxing opened his eyes on time, lit all the candlesticks in the room, looked at his face carefully in the mirror, and repeatedly confirmed that there were no flaws before letting anyone in to wash and change clothes.
Song Yu got up at 4:45 in the morning to get dressed.
Song Yu went to bed early and had a good sleep last night, and was in a good mood. Thinking that she could kiss the handsome face she had admired for a long time openly today, she looked full of energy, her skin was white and glowing, and her makeup was particularly smooth and not cakey.
She was dressed and dressed in less than an hour.
Song Yu followed Jiang Yunwan's instructions and sat there obediently waiting for Mu Jingxing to pick her up.
When it was daybreak, Du Ye led Su Beiqing into the room and talked to her.
After an unknown amount of time, the little princess ran in, her face excited and breathless, "Sister, my brother-in-law is here, at the gate."
