Chapter 140 Where is the Dowry 1
After Yuzhu talked about the movements of Wan Yueju, Aunt An smiled first. She brought a pot of extremely pruned orchids to Shen Qingxi and asked, "What do you think of this pot of flowers?"
Shen Qingxi looked carefully and was very satisfied, "My aunt has good skills."
Aunt An smiled and said, "I have nothing to do in these years, and I like to prune some flower branches. The prime minister likes orchids, so I naturally have to go to their preferences." After a slight salute, Aunt An said, "Does my eldest lady like orchids?"
Shen Qingxi nodded and shook her head again. Chu Qi is also a person who loves orchids. In her previous life, she worked hard to raise orchids for Chu Qi, but in her heart, her favorite was camellia. She now raised orchids because Chen Huai sent orchids. If Chen Huai didn't send them, she wouldn't think about growing orchids.
Aunt An put the orchid aside and whispered, "Miss Second Miss is so angry this time, I must be competing with the eldest lady."
Shen Qingxi smiled faintly, "If I don't fight with her, why would she fight with me?"
Aunt An seemed to understand, Shen Qingxi looked at the Xifu Begonia outside and suddenly said, "Talk about it, there will be a lively incident again soon?"
Aunt An thought for a while and said in her heart, "Miss, Princess Yongle's birthday is coming."
Princess Yongle is the only sister of the emperor today. She is now twenty-eight years old, but she still never got married. Not only did she not get married, she also devoted herself to Buddha. She now lives in the eldest princess's mansion in the north of the city. She practices in peace on weekdays, but every autumn, the emperor will definitely hold a birthday banquet for her.
Fearing that Shen Qingxi did not understand who the eldest princess Yongle was, Aunt An said, "This eldest princess is the sister of the emperor's mother and the princess whom the late emperor loved the most. The prince was also engaged back then and decided to be the princess of Huai and Anhou's family. But the prince died on the battlefield that year, and the eldest princess never got married. For so many years, whether it was the emperor's advice or the court officials' advice, the eldest princess has been unchanged. The emperor favored her and kept stowing her."
As he said that, Aunt An said again, "The old lady will definitely take you to the eldest princess' birthday party. You must prepare a gift first..."
Shen Qingxi listened and suddenly asked, "Does Aunt An know who my mother's dowry was in the past few years?"
Aunt An's expression changed slightly, "Mrs. Xian's dowry is held by the wife. The wife does not have much dowry. In addition to her own business, the Prime Minister's dowry can support the family by relying on Mrs. Xian's dowry."
Jingniang frowned fiercely when she was listening, "Mrs. I didn't say that the prime minister had sent the eldest lady away. She dared to hand over her wife's dowry to Mrs. Hu! When Mrs. Hu came out of a small family, she saw her rich dowry, wouldn't she move them all into her private warehouse? Miss, actually, I wanted to say it as soon as I came back."
Shen Qingxi raised his hand to stop Jingniang's words and said indifferently, "My mother's dowry is of course my mother's dowry. If my mother goes there, she can only be mine. Don't worry, Jingniang will naturally get the dowry back."
After pondering for a moment, Shen Qingxi knocked on the edge of the table, "But this matter must be discussed for a long time..."
