682 Chapter 682, dowry

"."

Listening to the comments of the people around her, Xia Ning couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and her heart felt as sweet as eating honey.

To be honest, she didn't expect that there would be an eight-carrying sedan. When she first heard that Song Shaoqin was going to hold the wedding according to traditional Chinese etiquette, she didn't think too much and thought it was just a four-carrying sedan.

After all, only ordinary people or wealthy people taking concubines would be carried in a sedan chair by two people. With the status of the Song family, they would not arrange for two people to carry the sedan chair.

However, she did not expect that her second father-in-law had prepared such a surprise for her, marrying her with such a high-standard ceremony as an eight-carriage sedan chair. She was indeed surprised, and of course very happy.

In this strict hierarchical feudal dynasty, there is still a big difference between a four-person sedan chair and an eight-person sedan chair.

She remembered that in ancient times, only officials of the third rank or above rode in sedan chairs, which could be carried by four people or eight people. Ordinary people could not sit on them and would be considered treasonous.

Secondly, it can only appear when welcoming the bride, and it can use the eight-carriage sedan chair. This is definitely a symbol of identity and status. It represents the ceremony of the bride being married by the matchmaker, and it also represents the man's regard and respect for the bride.

"Lemon."

Suddenly, a hand with distinct bones appeared under the red hijab curtain, followed closely by Xia Ning's familiar warm voice.

She put her hand in his without hesitation and let him lead her into the sedan chair.

"Get up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sedan chair was suddenly lifted up. Xia Ning, who was sitting in the sedan chair, instantly felt the sedan shaking, followed by a burst of banging music, which was very lively and festive.

Fortunately, the people carrying the sedan were all people with martial arts skills. It was stable along the way and did not shake too much.

Following the wedding sedan were loads of dowry. The sedan had gradually moved away, but boxes of dowry were still being carried out from the Song family courtyard one after another.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk~ How many boxes are there?"

"So much dowry."

"I heard that the Song family also helped purchase some."

"What do you know? If you can marry a goddess, it will be worth any amount of betrothal gift."

"That's right, our Miss Xia is so good and capable, she can even bear the 180% reward."

"Don't disturb me, I want to count carefully how many lifts there are?"

For today's wedding, Xia Ning was actually not completely unprepared. She picked out some dowry for herself from the space.

After all, this was her wedding, and she naturally wanted to do it decently.

Although there is no maternal family to send the bride off on the wedding day, the dowry that should be prepared is indispensable.

She knew that she would be in trouble in many matters without her mother-in-law to come forward, but the Song family was considerate and still gave her enough time, including the three books and six etiquette that she should have. They either found an introducer or a matchmaker. He came forward to take care of things without losing any etiquette.

In addition to the treasures she had put away in the space, the Song family also prepared an additional 66 yuan betrothal gift, which was undoubtedly a way to support herself.

Xia Ning was also deeply touched by this. To her, this in-laws' family was equivalent to her natal family. After more than a year of getting along, they had already become her family.

So she collected an auspicious number of 120 eight taels from the supplies in space. This dowry was definitely of a very high standard. Even in the bustling capital, it was considered one of the best.

Three books and six etiquettes, ten miles of red makeup, phoenixes on the crown, eight carriages of sedan chairs, this is nothing more than a wedding by a bright matchmaker, right?
