As expected, when Jingwan left Great Elder Princess's courtyard, she took away a lot of good things. However, it was impossible to refuse these things because Great Elder Princess would not take them back just because she said "no". Every time she did this, she was ignored and "mercilessly" driven away by Great Elder Princess, and this time was no exception.
But just now, Jingwan pulled Wengzhu Yu Yao and said with a smile, "Yu Yao, my foster mother gave me all the good things, and you have no dowry in the future." So, little girl, quickly stop your mother.
Wengzhu Yu Yao smiled innocently, "It doesn't matter. I have no dowry. Sister, you can prepare a dowry for me in the future. My sixth cousin is very rich. When you become my sixth cousin's wife, I will definitely double the money."
Even Great Elder Princess was a little surprised, let alone Jingwan. Great Elder Princess frowned slightly at first. If others knew it, they would think that she was coveting Prince Jin's things, and now she was nice to Jingwan. She was Great Elder Princess. Even if she was not as rich as her sixth nephew, she was much better than other princes and nobles in the capital. After all, she had a good relationship with the Emperor. She had rich fields and shops and a lot of rewards every year. Not to mention that she only had one legitimate daughter, even if she had eight or ten more daughters, she would definitely get married in a grand way. "Yu Yao, who did you hear these words from?"
"My father told me." Yu Yao "betrayed" her father without any hesitation.
Great Elder Princess naturally knew what kind of person her husband was, and he would not say such words to Yu Yao for no reason. Great Elder Princess looked at Jing Wan and said helplessly, "Your adoptive father is an idiot."
Jingwan smiled. Even if he was her adoptive father, he was still a stranger to her, so she didn't know how to respond. However, although Prince Consort Jiang didn't like the affairs of the imperial court like her father, he was not picky in dealing with people. There should be a reason why he talked to Yu Yao like this. If Yu Yao made a scene because Great Elder Princess was kind to her, it would make everyone embarrassed. If someone said something to Yu Yao and let him know, it was very likely that he comforted Yu Yao with these words. In Great Elder Princess's Mansion, Great Elder Princess held all the power. However, as far as Jingwan could see, although the gifts used by her daughters-in-law were good, they were not as good as those given to her. Therefore, it was natural that they did not like Jingwan. It was useless to complain to their own husbands, but it was very possible to incite Yu Yao.
Jingwan reached out and pinched Yu Yao's face. "You're really clever. Okay, I'll prepare your dowry in the future. Although it's not as good as your mother's, it's not a problem to add a few percent to your dowry. I'm sure our Yu Yao will be glorious. "
"I don't want your dowry. I want Sixth Cousin's."
"Okay, okay …" Jingwan was overjoyed.
"How old are you? You're so shameless to think about dowry." Great Elder Princess also felt funny.
Yu Yao stuck out her tongue at Great Elder Princess in disdain.
What Jingwan could think of, Great Elder Princess could also think of. After Jingwan left, she would definitely ask about it carefully. Great Elder Princess had always pampered her daughter and brought up her son. She was dissatisfied with all her daughters who had been married off. Now she loved her youngest legitimate daughter the most. How dare Jingwan instigate Great Elder Princess in her ears?
When Jingwan saw these things, she also felt helpless. However, Great Elder Princess just wanted to protect her, so she couldn't really refuse her coldly. Therefore, if some people were unhappy, she could only continue to be unhappy.
The next day, Jingwan received more invitations, which were basically sent by the girls in the boudoir. After staying in the summer palace for a few days, almost all of them had settled down. Naturally, all kinds of banquets began again.
In summer, there were very few banquets. However, the summer palace was much cooler than the capital city. It was really boring, so they naturally had to find something to do.
Jingwan read several invitations. It seemed that they had discussed it, and the dates didn't overlap. Jingwan thought that this might be a tacit understanding formed in the early years. After all, the summer holidays were almost at this time every year. At that time, they would set the dates of their banquets. If there were some deletions or additions, they would probably make adjustments again.
To return the favor, Jingwan felt that she should also hold a banquet. However, she needed to think about the exact time and ask her sister-in-law about it. She would go out to attend two more banquets. It was better to follow a first-come-first-served basis. Since someone had already set the time, there was no reason to force them to change it.
Therefore, Jingwan turned to Sun Yijia.
Sun Yijia's pregnancy had stabilized, but everyone was worried about her. She also planned to take more time to recover.
Sun Yijia browsed through the invitations. "Nominally, these invitations were set up by those unmarried girls. In fact, sometimes their mothers and grandmothers also sent some invitations. In the past, the banquet of the Minister of Official Personnel Affairs was set on June 20th. Now that Grandfather is the Minister of Official Personnel Affairs, you can set the date on that day. With your current status, no one will be blind enough to go against you and fight for that day's time.
With the Ruan family's current situation, they will definitely not hold a banquet. Furthermore, in the past few years, there were usually two Cabinet Elders who came to the Summer Palace. This year, there is one less Cabinet Elder, and there is one day left. If someone wants to fight for it, they will probably fight for three days. After all, although there is no rule that the time is arranged according to the status of each family, there are some people who think so. The closer they are to the front, the more they feel honored. "Toward the end, Sun Yijia said with some indifference.
Jingwan could roughly understand her thoughts. Based on her cold personality towards outsiders, she really didn't care about this kind of thing. "Sister-in-law, did you send invitations here as well?"
"Of course. Although it's not as valuable as before, I still want to save face. Moreover, the three of you are becoming more and more famous now. It's impossible for you to stop even if you want to. Look, you went out early this morning. You should know that this is all thanks to Little Sister Wan." Sun Yijia said with a hint of ridicule.
"It's because my third brother is a genius." Jingwan said righteously.
Those who didn't know would think that Jingwan was proud of her brother. Sun Yijia knew the inside story. She reached out and pinched Jingwan's face. She laughed and said, "You're getting more and more shameless." No one else would praise themselves as a genius.
Jingwan slapped her hand away. "It's true."
"Yes, yes, yes. A genius." In fact, Sister Wan was indeed worthy of this title.
Jingwan wanted to play the zither again to give Sun Yijia's baby prenatal education. After she played two songs, Sun Yijia couldn't bear it anymore. She pushed her aside and played the zither herself. Jingwan didn't feel embarrassed. However, Sun Yijia didn't play for long.
Just as Jingwan was about to leave, Sun Yijia handed her a small locked box and said in a low voice, "Sister Wan, you can go back and look at this by yourself. Don't worry and keep it. Don't think about rejecting it now. After you go back and look at it, don't think about returning it. If it's for you, it's for you. "
Jingwan naturally didn't want it. However, judging from Sun Yijia's expression, she really couldn't take it back. "Alright, I'll keep it. Sister-in-law, you won't harm me."
"I, Sun Yijia, have harmed anyone in my life, but it's impossible for me to harm you, little sister Wan. It could be said that you gave me a new life. If I harm you, I should be struck by lightning." Sun Yijia's voice was soft and slow, but it was unusually solemn.
Jingwan was stunned. Then, she smiled and said, "So serious? I'll keep it well. " As she spoke, she shook the small box in her hand. There was a slight clanging sound inside. It seemed that the thing inside was quite solid.
After Jingwan went back, she knew that her sister-in-law must have her reasons for telling her to keep it well. She dismissed the servants and then took out the key to open the small box. She took out the brocade pouch inside. It was a silent shape. It should be a token.
Jingwan's heart inexplicably beat a little faster. Whether it was in her previous life or in this life, she had never come into contact with something like this. However, she had seen similar things on television. Generally, as long as it was related, it was something that could take one's life.
Jingwan opened the brocade pouch and took out the item. Very good. It was impossible to pretend that she didn't know the significance of this item.
Then, she thought of her sister-in-law's words. She could only keep it with ease. If she really sent it back and used it as an excuse, it would really attract other people's attention. After keeping the item, Jingwan decided to ask her grandfather how much authority this thing had.
Luo Peishan was sitting under the shade of a tree. A servant was fanning him. He was especially serious as he flipped through a book.
Jingwan walked closer. "Grandfather really doesn't do proper work. Even if he has free time, he should read proper books."
Luo Peishan glanced at her in annoyance. "This indecent book was also made by you."
Jingwan "unruly" bowed. She took the servant's fan with a grin and sat beside Luo Peishan. "It's not a big deal that granddaughter doesn't do proper work. But grandfather, you're different."
"One nose and two eyes. How am I different?"
Jingwan chuckled. When she was in Qi 'an prefecture, why did she feel that her grandfather was serious and unapproachable? Why did she feel that he was a standard scholar-official? Sure enough, people couldn't judge others based on their "own opinion". "Grandfather, I want to ask you something …"
Luo Peishan glanced at her. Just as he was about to speak, he saw her glance at her servant. Thus, he understood tacitly and sent him away. "Speak. What is it?"
"Grandfather, how much do you know about the death exemption gold medallion?"
Luo Peishan paused. His expression was slightly cold. But in the blink of an eye, he restrained the expression on his face. His eyes fell on the book again and he spoke casually. Obviously, Luo Peishan didn't know as much as Old Madame Sun. At least, he didn't know that there was only one death-free gold medallion left. He only said what needed to be said and didn't ask anything else.
