Chapter 304
Beds, tables, chairs and other large items were all loaded and transported by trucks, and all the animals pulling the carts were bay red horses with big red flowers tied on their heads.The driver's attire is the same as that of the dowry bearer, with new clothes and shoes.

Because it has been checked a long time ago, Maoshi is an auspicious time, and these people will be in place before Yinshi.At midnight, firecrackers rang out from the gate of Yao Mansion, and the driver of the first carriage yelled loudly and slapped his whip to clear the way.The carriages behind followed one after another.

Beds, cupboards, tables and chairs, desks and other large-scale furniture included six sets in total, each loaded with 32 carriages, and they left the alley in a mighty manner.The ones in front have all turned around the intersection, and the ones in the back have just started.

Behind the carriage are small pieces of dowry, such as various antiques, clothes for the four seasons, silk, satin, fur, gold, silver, copper and tin utensils, from vanity mirrors and boxes to washbasins, toilets, etc. 99 lifts.

The two proper people who gave the dowry were Yao Yanyu's nanny Feng and Yao Fengge's nanny Li. Of course there was Feng Youcun in front. The two followed each other in their cars.There are also ten pairs of complete servants following behind.

These people want to watch their girl's dowry properly placed in the new house.It has been decided where everything should be placed, and it must not be placed in a random manner, which breaks the rules.

At the end of August, it happened to be the golden autumn season, the sky was high and the air was crisp, and the blue sky was like washing.The first ray of morning light dyed Yundu City with a faint golden layer.Early in the morning, people in Yundu City began to walk, and the stalls were set up before dawn, and the small merchants who walked and sold began to yell.

As the convoy moved forward, the sound of horseshoes and silver bells could be heard endlessly.

As soon as the Yao family's dowry convoy appeared, these passers-by and small merchants stopped their work one after another.

Those who walk no longer leave; those who go to work are no longer in a hurry; those who sell breakfast no longer sell them; I don’t eat any of it; I don’t want to yell at those who sell eggs and duck eggs with a basket on their shoulders...

Everyone huddled together by the side of the road and counted the dowry for Miss Yao.

"Look at this bed—is this what people call sandalwood? Look at how delicately carved the flowers are!"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Just this bed, this girl must have started to choose wood when she was three or two years old, and asked craftsmen to make it. She didn't have more than ten years of work, but she couldn't make such a bed! This is The ostentation of a wealthy family marrying their daughter! Dude, have you never seen it before?"

"Hey? What is this? Is this a wardrobe? Why is it so big?"

"Look at this screen! This is a picture of the Four Gentlemen carved out of jade! Isn't this screen worth a few thousand guan?"

"Look at this! What kind of property is this covered in red silk?"

"do not know."

"It looks like a screen? Why is it so narrow? At least four? Why are there only two?"

"The rich and the rich have a variety of things, what do we poor people know?"

"Tsk! You said that if a gust of wind blows away the bright red silk, we can learn a lot!"

"Pull you down!"

The driver who drove the car couldn't help laughing when he heard this. These people were talking about the second girl's full-length mirror!It is as tall as a real person, and it is inlaid with a sandalwood carved frame. If you put it there, you will be just like a real person when you walk towards it!Ah ha ha, you bumpkins haven't seen it before, have you?

Leading the convoy in front were Feng Youcun, Yao Sixi and others. Behind these people were sixteen servants, each of whom was carrying a satchel, which contained the new money of Huang Chengcheng.Every time there was a corner at the intersection, a pair of boys would grab a handful of money and throw it out.

The yellow and orange copper coins fell on the street paved with bluestone slabs, making a tinkling sound, which attracted some poor people to pick them up in a hurry.

The convoy passed through the crowded downtown streets and entered the spacious Ping'an Street. There were fewer miscellaneous small businesses and hawkers, but more common people came and went.

Feng Youcun smiled and said to Yao Sixi: "It is estimated that these people have heard that our girl is giving a dowry today, so they all came to see it."

Yao Sixi laughed and said: "Need to say? As far as the dowry of our second girl is concerned, I dare say it is no worse than those girls from the Duke's family."

"That's needless to say." Feng Youcun smiled proudly. The girl in his family has the eldest princess and the Duke's mansion to add makeup. Now the girl is a fifth-rank medical officer, and even the empress in the palace is rewarded. This is decent, the Duke's family Girls may not have.

Yao Sixi smiled and told the boy next to him: "So who, give more money, so that the young and old in the capital can enjoy the joy of our second girl."

"Good!" Hearing this, the boy next to him hurriedly grabbed a lot of money, and sprinkled it on both sides as he walked, attracting more people to pick it up.Noisy, so festive.

After walking for a while, I saw a group of people blocking the street in front of me, and I didn't know what to do together.Feng Youcun said: "Who goes over to see what's going on in front?"

Li Zhong was afraid that other people would not be able to speak and delay the business, so he quickly responded, "I'll go."

Feng Youcun said worriedly: "Go quickly, no matter what it is, it's better to tell them, let them disperse first, and the girl's dowry must not delay the auspicious time."

"Understood." Li Zhong agreed and got off the horse, hurried forward and squeezed into the crowd.

As soon as Li Zhong squeezed into the crowd, he was enraged by the sight in front of him.It turned out that a group of small opera singers temporarily broke up the stage here to sing operas, and the operas are nothing more than singing, but what they sang was "Xuemei Diaoxiao"!
Not to mention that this is not a mainstream drama, and Li Zhong has never seen it before, just looking at Xiao Huadan's filial attire, Li Zhong's face sank.It's early in the morning, who has nothing to do to set up such a stall here?Isn't this obviously a disgusting person?

"Hey, hey!" Li Zhong raised his hand and patted a man who was playing the snare drum, "Don't knock, don't knock!"

The man playing the snare drum looked back at Li Zhong, and asked in surprise, "My lord, what's the matter with you?"

No matter what these people are doing, Li Zhong took out a piece of silver from his pocket and pressed it on the small drum with an attitude of letting things go, and shouted: "Stop singing, hurry up, take the money, please make way. Place, are you setting up a stage here? Be careful that the people of Shuntian Prefecture will arrest you all in a moment! Hurry up, let's go!"

As soon as the drums stopped, so did the suona and erhu players, and when the erhu players stopped, naturally the little Huadan who sang opera also stopped.The entire troupe and the people watching the fun all looked at the ingot of silver in Li Zhong's hand.

"What's the matter? Too little?" Li Zhong looked at the man knocking on the clapper. This man looked like the leader, and the clothes he wore were different from others, so Li Zhong didn't ask others to ask questions, "If you don't think it's too little, tell me Count, I will give you exactly what I counted."
