Chapter 544: Envy and Jealousy
The eldest aunt was not as noisy as Qian. She pulled Chen and asked quietly, "Are you hiring Xiao Fei as your principal wife?"
Chen said unhappily, "Of course she is the principal wife. My Xiao Fei will never be someone's concubine!"
The eldest aunt got a positive answer and became more and more dizzy.
Xiao Fei is going to be a princess. Xiao Fei is going to be a princess in the future!
If this is not a step to heaven, what is it?
The old lady stretched her neck and understood that the palace hired Gu Fei as the principal wife!
My God, the ancestral tomb of the Gu family is smoking!
How can this girl be so lucky?
Qian couldn't help but want to pick up the golden basin to see how heavy it was.
Just as she reached out to touch it, Aunt Qin, who was watching the things next to her, hurriedly said, "Her aunt, you can't touch these things."
She saw that there was still mud in the cracks of Qian's fingernails that had not been washed clean.
Qian took her hand back awkwardly, her eyes wandering over the golden things, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, so much gold, my God, sister-in-law, you can't spend it all in your ten lifetimes."
Although Aunt Qin was also shocked, she sneered at Qian for not having seen the world.
When she was at the salt transport envoy's house, she saw the eldest daughter of the family get married and the man offered a betrothal gift.
The man's family was a third-rank official, but the betrothal gift was not so arrogant.
After all, the royal family's style is different.
Chen glanced at Qian, "I can't spend these things, I will take them to the palace for Xiao Fei."
"What?" Qian cried out, "So much gold and silver, you won't keep any of it?"
Chen smiled, "What are you going to keep? Not only these, but also those shops and fields will be given to Xiao Fei as a dowry."
Qian was stunned. A little girl took away all the family business, wouldn't it be a waste of raising her?
Xing'er would wake up laughing in her dreams if she could have a betrothal gift of twenty taels of silver in the future. As for giving all the betrothal gift to her daughter as a dowry, is she crazy?
The old lady moved her mouth and wanted to speak. No matter how high Xiaofei married, she was still a woman who had left the house. The man in the family was the root of the family. He was the root of the family. Shouldn't he leave some family property for them?
Not to mention the gold and jewelry, the land and shops, gold and silver should be kept.
At this time, the eldest aunt saw the old lady's mouth move, and quickly poked the old lady with her elbow. The old lady's mouth twitched, and she thought about it and gave up.
No one listened to her words, and she was annoying.
Chen began to direct the servants to carry things to the inner courtyard one by one.
Qian looked at the gold and silver, and really wanted to grab something in her hand.
It would be good to give her one of the gold ingots.
And the silk, my god, if it is piled up so high, you will never be able to wear it all in your lifetime.
Baoer stared at the two loads of wedding cakes eagerly, and tried to reach out to take them. Qian saw it and slapped him hard, "Don't move, you can't touch this thing." After saying that, she smiled at Chen in a flattering way.
Baoer was now strictly disciplined by Gu Zhong and had become more disciplined, so he quickly retracted his hand.
Chen glanced over here and smiled, "Lanzhi, share this wedding cake with everyone."
This wedding cake was originally meant to be shared with everyone to bring joy.
Lanzhi walked over and distributed the wedding cakes with Aunt Qin.
Everyone who came had a share. After sharing one load, they brought the load to the door and shared some with those who were watching the fun.
Baoer couldn't wait to put the wedding cake in his mouth and took a bite, "It smells so good."
The wedding cakes in the palace were filled with milk, eggs and sugar. The taste was really incomparable to ordinary cakes.
Everyone watched the betrothal gifts being carried into the backyard one by one, and then they dispersed with a sense of unfulfilled desire.
