Gu Jingyun prepared the betrothal gift and dowry with all the cash the family could provide, and stuffed the land and shop acquired by the division into the betrothal gift and sent it to the Qin Mansion.

Seeing the gift list, Qin Xinfang twitched the corners of her mouth and reluctantly left one or two betrothal gifts, and stuffed the rest back to Baolu as a dowry.

So Baolu's dowry was doubled.

Qin Xinfang and He Zipei added two more Zhuangzi and two shops for them. Seeing that Li Baolu wanted to refuse, they said: "You were raised by us. If you want to get married, we should give you a dowry. If it weren't for you If the two children insist on living alone, what's the point of giving half of our property to you? Now this little thing is just for your makeup."

The makeup of the two Zhuangzi and the two shops, even if Li Baolu knew they were rich, she couldn't help admiring their skills at this time.

In addition to real estate, the two also stuffed Li Baolu with many ancient books, calligraphy, paintings and utensils, directly changing her dowry from fifty-eight liters to sixty-four liters.

When they were in Qiongzhou, money was very important to them, but when they returned to the capital, it became the last need.

Because all the properties of the Qin family's direct branch returned to Qin Xinfang's hands, and if there was too much money, it became a possession outside the body.

They only have one daughter, and unless Niu Niu recruits a son-in-law to inherit the family business, except for the dowry for Niu Niu, the rest will either be handed over to the state or the clan.

Even if Gu Jingyun is his closest blood other than Niu Niu, it is impossible to inherit even a little bit.

Jing Yun has never paid much attention to money, while Bao Lu is very principled although she loves money, otherwise Qin Xinfang would have wished to put money in their pockets.

Like all parents, they can't wait to leave all the good things to their children.

It's so easy to have an opportunity now, so naturally I won't miss it.

The couple filled up their dowry and began to wait for people from all walks of life to add make-up to Li Baolu. In addition to old relatives and friends, the Qin family in Runing and the Li family in Shunde also sent people to add make-up to Li Baolu.

And the Prince's Mansion even sent two loads of treasures to add makeup. After the Prince came out, the second and third princes also sent people to add makeup, and even the youngest princess in the palace sent a box of Dongzhu. .

People in the capital all looked sideways, swaying left and right whether they wanted to join in the fun. At this moment, the servants in the Empress Dowager's Palace carried a large box out of the palace and went straight to the Qin Mansion. The people in the Empress Dowager's Palace were the emperor and Queen's people.

Now all parties in the capital don't hesitate anymore, regardless of whether they have anything to do with Qin, Gu, and Li's family, anyway, they just want to find a way to send things to Qin's mansion, and they must add makeup to Li Baolu.

However, the Qin family is very proficient in dealing with such situations, and will not pick up anyone they don't know, and send them away politely.

If Li Baolu accepts their make-up today, she owes a favor and has to pay it back in the future. This is not a good thing for her.

After the makeup is added, the dowry will be adjusted again. At this time, the dowry team has become seventy-two.

After reading through the thick dowry list, Li Baolu finally let out a long sigh and said, "This is the real one-time wealth."

She touched her purse, and silently answered the second half of the sentence in her heart, but her purse was also empty.

Gu Jingyun invited the official media to come to discuss the wedding date. Gu Jingyun had already selected the wedding date on the second day of April, but now it is just following the procedure.

And there are only 16 days left until the second day of April. They only took 11 days to complete the five ceremonies of Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng and asking for a period. Everything needed to get married has been prepared early, and it is impossible for them to carry out the wedding so quickly and efficiently.

As soon as the wedding date was announced and the invitation post was posted, many people secretly lamented Gu Jingyun's scheming.

It was only then that everyone thought that Li Baolu seemed to have lived in the Qin family since the first month of the lunar year, and then thought of the frequent rewards of Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu by the royal family during that time ago, everyone suddenly realized that this was the reason.

The officials who have been on guard against Gu Jingyun's power are silent, so everything is because they think too much?

Or they thought too little, did not think of this.

Even Peng Dan silently swallowed a mouthful of old blood, and with him pointing at Gu Jingyun in vain, he had to swallow the blood and then kindly ordered the housekeeper, "I will make the gift to the Gu family three more layers. I am his uncle , should have been kinder than others."

"yes."

...

Li Jun was sitting upright, leaning forward, looking at Qin Xinfang nervously and expectantly, and said: "I also ask Master Qin to help you."

Qin Xinfang gently slid the wall of the teacup with her thumb, and said with a soft smile, "Although I don't have a son, I have quite a few nephews. Baolu is no different from our adopted daughter, and she can be regarded as their younger sister, so let them There is nothing wrong with marrying Baolu behind my back."

Li Jun was slightly disappointed.

"However," Qin Xinfang murmured, "You are right, you are her cousin, and logically speaking, it is most reasonable for you to carry her on the sedan chair."

Li Jun's eyes flashed again, and he looked at Qin Xinfang expectantly.

Qin Xinfang slightly nodded and said: "Then I will trouble Mr. Li."

Li Jun got up and gave Qin Xinfang a big gift, and said excitedly: "It's the boy who thanked Master Qin for her success, Baolu has been kind to our family, and that's all I can do for her now. "

Qin Xinfang helped him up and said with a smile: "Although she was brought to our Qin family at a very young age, she is also from the Li family. What's more, your grandmother loved her so much back then. It is a good thing that your brothers and sisters can be friendly and respectful. I miss your grandmother Quan You should feel at ease if you know.”

Li Jun shook his lips and said nothing. He was still young when his grandmother passed away, and now he doesn't even remember his grandmother's appearance, but he still remembers her grandmother's love and expectations for him.

Qin Xinfang nodded slightly when she saw him. Although Li Hong was a mess, fortunately his son was not crooked.

Qin Xinfang decides that Li Jun will act as Baolu's elder brother in marriage, so Li Jun has more things to do.

On the first day of April, Li Jun sent Baolu's dowry wedding bed to Gu's mansion in advance, and watched them change all the beds and quilts in the new house, and put the rest of the heavy furniture in the vacated utility room. inside.

These things are not easy to carry the next day, so they have to be delivered one day in advance. Tomorrow, they only need to carry some small molds, and outsiders can tell what they are sending with them at a glance.

In addition to these furniture that can be expressed in this way, the fields, shops, houses, etc. can also be expressed in this way.

For example, in the fields, a pile of soil should be placed on the gift bag, and reduced to a field shape according to a certain ratio, so that others can roughly know how many acres of fields are accompanied by the gift.

The shop is a model of a shop, and the house is a model of a house, which can be said to be clear at a glance.

The night before the wedding, Li Baolu didn't know what happened to the other person. Anyway, she was extremely nervous. After dinner, she was restless. She had lived with that person for twelve years and married for another four years. , but at this moment she was still nervous, even a little scared.

Li Baolu wandered around the room anxiously and couldn't help it, so she spread out a pen and paper to practice calligraphy.

This is her method of meditation. In the past, she would do this whenever she could not calm down, and the effect was amazing. When she was fast, she would calm down as soon as she picked up a pen, and when she was slow, she would calm down after writing twenty or thirty words, but today she wrote The heart of the three big characters is still restless.

Li Baolu was dazed while clutching the pen in her hand, not understanding why she was so nervous, shouldn't she accept the wedding in a nonchalant way?

After all, they are all "old couples".

"Boom boom"

Li Baolu frowned and looked towards the window, scolding: "Niu Niu, if you keep messing around, do you believe I'll hang you on a tree?"

There was silence outside the window, and then there were two slight "dong dong" sounds.

Only then did Li Baolu helplessly go to open the window, and said angrily, "Niu..."

After seeing the person standing under the window clearly, Li Baolu opened her mouth tongue-tied, her first reaction was to look back at the room, and seeing that the maids were not disturbed by her, she lowered her voice and asked, "Why did you come here?"

Gu Jingyun was sweating slightly on his forehead, and was standing under the window looking at her with a smile, and said in a low voice, "I miss you, I can't help but want to see you."

Under the moonlight, his brows were soft, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he was looking at her with a slight smile and anticipation.

Li Baolu felt her heart beating like a beating, and stared at him blankly for a while, but didn't know how to react.

Seeing that she was stunned, Gu Jingyun smiled slightly, put his hands on the window sill and jumped in, hugged her and smiled, "You miss me too, don't you?"

Li Baolu's face flushed red.

Gu Jingyun squeezed her hand, turned around and closed the window, pulled her into the inner room, stopped slightly when turning the desk, looked at the big characters on the desk, and smiled deeper, "It seems that you really miss me very much. "

Li Baolu followed his gaze and blushed even more, only then did she realize that the handwriting she wrote was Gu Jingyun's name.

The three big characters are full of his name.

She stretched out her hand to tear it, but Gu Jingyun had already put away the paper before her, folded it and put it in his arms, he said with a smile: "These three words are very well written, you can give it to me."

Li Baolu glared at him, "Don't make fun of me. I was in a state of anxiety when I wrote this word. I didn't even know what to write. How could it be okay? You're going to tear it up."

Gu Jingyun seemed stunned, and said with a smile: "So you wrote my name subconsciously, so I can't tear it up, and keep it for later appreciation."

Li Baolu was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but blushed and stomped on him.

Gu Jingyun jumped away with a smile, turned around but held her hand again and said with a smile, "Are you so nervous? Otherwise, why can't you be careful after writing so many words?"

The two had lived together for many years, and Gu Jingyun knew Li Baolu's habits better than she did. This was the first time he saw her write three big letters in a row that were out of state.

Seeing Baolu's face turned red, Gu Jingyun affirmed what was in his heart, hugged her to comfort her, and said, "I'm also nervous, and I haven't been careful, so I came to see you."

"By the way, how did you get in?" Li Baolu turned to ask him.

Gu Jingyun winked at her, "Climbing the wall, of course. Have you forgotten that I also learned kung fu from my master. My lightness kung fu may not be as good as yours, but climbing a wall is not a big problem."
