The list in the dressing box was actually a list of dowry items. This list was sent by Wei Yuewu's maternal grandmother according to Wei Yuewu's request.
It was Wei Yuewu who asked Tu Di, her Eldest Aunt, to ask for it from her maternal grandmother.
It had only been delivered to Wei Yuewu a few days ago. The details of Wei Yuewu's mother's dowry and some shops were recorded in it.
However, as Wei Yuewu browsed through the list, there were many things that she could not comprehend. The main reason was that the dowry was so extravagant that it far surpassed her expectations.
Could her maternal grandparents really afford to provide such an excessive dowry?
Wei Yuewu had lived with her maternal grandparents' family for so many years. Although her maternal grandparents' family was well-off, there was a gap in terms of wealth between them and the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang in the capital. Her uncles got along pretty
The carriage had already slowly started and was heading in the Plum Blossom Nunnery's direction. Wei Yuewu held Huamo's hand and was in a daze.A trace of gloominess hovered under her clear and limpid eyes. A nun from Plum Blossom Nunnery?She had met many of Plum Blossom Nunnery's nuns. Other than a few normal ones, there seemed to be a lot of suspicious figures. Almost many things were related to Plum Blossom Nunnery's nuns.For example, a nun came out of a gold shop. It was a very strange scenario.Moreover, the nun did not want to have anything to do with her at all. She didn't even want to have any interaction with her despite her injury. In addition, the nun seemed to repeatedly urge Wei Yuewu not to make the Young Master wait for her.The Young Master was none other than Wen Tianyao.The nun gave Wei Yuewu a feeling that she seemed to know Wen Tianyao.However, Wei Yuewu had neve
"Can't you cut them from other rubies? I only want one for each earring. It's not much," Wei Yuewu requested with a completely confused look."Uh... I'm sorry, I can't do it. Every set of headgear is designed according to the size of a ruby. Moreover, this set of headgear in your hand should be made of the best ruby here. Rubies of this quality are hard to come by. Sometimes, we will only get one or two per month. The headgear made of this ruby is the best of the best. We try not to waste every bit of ruby, so there is nothing left, no matter how small a part you request!"The shopkeeper looked at the red ruby in Wei Yuewu's fair palm and shook his head helplessly. The ruby was even more radiant as it was placed on Wei Yuewu's hand."Does your boss not have any?" Wei Yuewu looked at the earring in her hand reluctantly."No, he doesn't have any." The shopkeeper decisively shook his head."Can you ask him, please?
At the entrance of the staircase on the second floor stood a beautiful woman. Her skin was as fair as jade, and her face was delicate and charming. She stood quietly, looking very elegant and gentle. She was such a head-turner that passers-by couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.She was Jing Wenyan of the mansion of Duke of Jing."Sixth Miss Wei, do you like this screen too?" Jing Wenyan walked over with a smile, looking dignified and graceful."Yes, it's very beautiful!" Wei Yuewu smiled slightly, and a trace of cold light flashed across her eyes. Ever since Jing Wenyan entered the capital, she had repeatedly expressed her affection for her. In fact, on the day of the mansion of Duke of Jing's banquet, Jing Wenyan had hinted that she offered a helping hand to Wei Yuewu regarding Wei Fengyao's matter.No matter how Wei Yuewu looked at it, Jing Wenyan was extremely friendly to her.But did this Jing
"What is Wei Yuewu doing over there?!" The Fourth Princess, who was sitting in the private room of the opposite building, raised her eyebrows angrily and snapped."It should be a coincidence. Your Highness, Eldest Miss Jing said that she would speak up for you!" The palace maid, who was standing next to the Fourth Princess, comforted her in a low voice."If it was a coincidence, she could leave. Why is she so shameless as to stay with them? Oh my, the upbringing of all the young ladies of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang is infamous for being lousy. Doesn't she see that Jing Wenyan has something to say to the heir-apparent?!" The Fourth Princess grunted hatefully.She sneaked out of the palace and dressed like an ordinary young lady of an aristocratic family. In order to avoid being recognized, she specially wore a veil.The waiter brought tea and snacks into the private room and then left. At this moment, she secretly lifted
Wei Yuewu did not expect to stumble upon the heir-apparent's carriage although she had left first.She lifted the curtain and was speechless when she saw the heir-apparent's leisurely face.No matter how she looked at it, it was not a coincidence!"Sixth Miss Wei, how has your father been these past few days?" Yan Huaijing asked in a faint and leisurely tone as always. His smile was brilliant, but it made Wei Yuewu feel a strong sense of malice. When had his relationship with her father become so good?"Your Heir-apparent, how may I help you?" Wei Yuewu had no choice but to bow in the carriage. She felt helpless when the Heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State stopped her carriage."A drama will unfold soon. Are you interested to watch it?" Yan Huaijing invited her with a smile as if he was inviting Wei Yuewu to watch an interesting affair."I'm busy. I have something to deal with." Wei Yuewu rubbed
"The fengshui is not good?" Wei Yuewu's heart skipped a beat."Yes. She said that the fengshui was bad and wanted to end the business. She fired all of the waiters in the shop. Now, there are only our shopkeeper and the two of us. We have been working here for so long, and we don't want to leave. Moreover, this is Eldest Young Lady's shop. It's really too much to close the shop."One of the waiters grunted angrily."Eldest Young Lady's shop?" Wei Yuewu asked faintly."Yes. She was Marquise Hua Yang. This shop was originally hers. We were the old staff who were transferred here with the shop when she got married. Later, she even redeemed us and turned us into ordinary citizens in the capital. She said that we didn't have to work for the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang anymore. We thought that we could guard her shop, but now..."The old waiter choked, turned his head, and secretly wiped his tears."Are y
"What? Fourth Princess' carriage almost flipped over? Later on, the Heir-apparent of Yan sent someone to send her back?! He even said that he was coming to see me and talked to me about the screen?!" Jing Wenyan was shocked and abruptly stood up from the qin. She almost ruined her elegant appearance."Y-Yes, I heard it from someone. It is said that there were many people at that time. They all heard the Heir-apparent of Yan's order," the maid timidly answered as she witnessed Jing Wenyan lost her usual graceful posture."Let's go. Let's go to Duke of Yan State Mansion!" Jing Wenyan stood up and pushed away the qin in front of her. Because she had used too much force, the expensive qin fell to the floor, and one of the strings snapped."Miss..." The maid cried out in alarm as she pointed at the qin, her face turning pale. This was Eldest Young Lady's favorite qin. There was once a maid who accidentally scratched it a bit, and her hands we
Nanny Hong walked over with a smile and seemed to be in a pleasant mood. "Greetings, Sixth Young Lady."Wei Yuewu hurriedly stood up and helped Nanny Hong up. "You're too polite, Nanny Hong. May I know if Grandmother wants me to do something?""Eldest Young Lady sustained a hand injury in the palace the other day. Today, she sent a message, saying that her injury had recovered and that she missed Madam Dowager and wanted to see her. Madam Dowager figured that you must have been worried about Eldest Young Lady, so she asked me to come and inform you and Fifth Young Lady to go over to Eldest Young Lady's residence to visit her.""Why aren't Third Elder Sister and Fourth Elder Sister going?" Wei Yuewu asked with a surprised expression. She raised her eyes and smiled, looking as if she was purely curious."Third Young Lady is resting in her room because of her injury, and it's inconvenient for her to go out. Fourth Young Lady's
