Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 66 Dispute
This matter was provoked by the second wife, and after a turn around, Ming concubine kicked the problem back to her. A cold light flashed in the second wife's eyes, and she smiled, "Don't ask me about this, I just want to There are many, but when it comes to solutions, I am not as good as your mother and the old lady, and I think I have too much control when you ask."

You have always cared a lot, but the fourth wife who has been favored doesn't think so, she said, "Second sister-in-law is thoughtful, otherwise there will be disputes between Ming Qi and Ming Yi when they get married in the future, which will hurt the harmony of the Hou family."

Mrs. Su sat beside her. She was the first and two older. She looked at the old lady, and the old lady only looked at Concubine Ming. Then Mrs. Su asked Concubine Ming, "Concubine, do you have any ideas?"

Ming concubine shrugged her shoulders and smiled, "I don't have any ideas, I won't be short of money in the future, if it's too troublesome, it doesn't matter if I don't prepare for the dowry."

There are 20 taels, of course she is not short of money, but what she said, it seems that the money has already been in her hands.

Fortunately, he is considered smart, and he didn't say it clearly, otherwise it would reach the ears of the Zhennan Prince's mansion, and he wouldn't be mad at the Zhennan Prince's son.

The old lady gave Ming concubine an angry look, and said, "Nonsense! There is no one who is married and does not plan to dowry. Even a small family has a dowry. You are the daughter of the Dingbei Hou Mansion. Not to mention the red makeup, you are married, but It can't be shabby anymore."

Ming concubine stepped forward, sat down next to the old lady, and wondered, "I can't be shabby, for the sake of fairness and justice, it's not easy to get it from the public, and my dowry was given to the third younger sister, so I will definitely not be able to come back, so I just have to pay for it." My father and mother prepared it for me with their own pockets, and my father is Lord Hou, who is deeply trusted by the emperor, so he must have a lot of pockets, so let my father pay for it."

Ming concubine thought that it would not be too much for her to treat Ding Beihou's illness, and it would not be too much to ask him for a doctor's fee of 8000 taels to buy a dowry, but after she finished speaking, the room fell silent.

Ming concubine's heart was pounding, she didn't say anything too much, why didn't she say anything, she looked at the old lady carefully, and listened to her, "Take money from the public to buy Ming concubine as a dowry."

Concubine Ming was stunned for a moment, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the second wife's stiff face, she was even more puzzled, looked at Mrs. Su, and called, "Mother?"

With a smile on Su's face, he said, "Although your father is trusted by the emperor, he really doesn't have many things in his hands. The small warehouse stores all the big items that the emperor rewarded. You can pick a few for you. But it can’t be exchanged for money, your father’s salary, and the ice and charcoal gifts from your colleagues are all placed in the public house.”

When Marquis Dingbei was rewarded, his only son disappeared and his whereabouts were unknown. Without his son, he could not reproduce. It was meaningless for him to fight for those family properties. Except for those that could not be placed in the public house, other money and things went into his hands. Public account.

Ming concubine smiled suddenly, and said, "Second aunt said that everyone is treated equally, but Ming concubine thought that the public house was the public house, and the four rooms were separated. It turns out that all the rewards from father are in the public house."

The second wife's stiff face turned blue.

The corner of Su's mouth turned a bit cold, and said, "Tell me back to your father, he doesn't distinguish between public and private, and he can't even manage my family. It's inconvenient for the public to give another dowry. Your father can easily do it." Take it out."

Mrs. Su was a little angry. Master Hou had no selfish intentions. For so many years, several houses had taken advantage of him. He just gave Ming concubine an extra dowry, but the matter of tens of thousands of taels of silver is unfair, which is really chilling.

The third wife and the fourth wife looked at each other, and there was a spark in the bottom of their eyes. Of course, she was not angry with Ming concubine, nor was she angry with Su, but she was angry with the second wife.

What a second wife, she thought she was thinking about Mingyi and the others, but she was using them as weapons!

Although it is said that Lord Hou's body has improved, and after a few months of recuperation, he will be able to regenerate, but Mrs. Su is not young, and it is not so easy to have another child. A little bit of a child can die with a little movement of hands and feet.

The second room is staring at the title, the marquis's things are all in the public house, and when the family is separated in the future, the third and fourth rooms will get a lot of points, but if it is in the hands of the marquis, it will belong to whoever inherits the title.

No one brought this unpleasant topic up again. Outside, Shan Shan led two embroidered ladies in. One was a little older, about 37-23, fair-looking, and looked amiable. The other was about [-] years old, wearing a golden hairpin on her head. The eyebrows are delicate.

Both of them are embroiderers of the Su family, and they are a pair of mother and daughter. The fourth wife said when she saw her, "Why did the sister-in-law only bring two embroiderers, it's still not enough."

Su's complexion was gentle and said, "They are here to measure the size and get the embroidery samples for my concubine. I said to borrow three embroiderers, but my sister-in-law said it was not enough, but they brought all the embroiderers to the Hou's mansion, and they were not in good shape, so I proposed to give up the measurement." Take the size back to Sujia Embroidery, in addition to the wedding dress, there are 32 sets of skirts for the four seasons, and the winter cloaks are all Sujia Embroidery. Ming concubine added makeup, they treated Ming concubine as their own daughter to get married, let me just rest assured, I insisted on refusing, and almost turned against me."

She dragged, pushed and shied away until now, before she returned home.

There are 32 sets of skirts in the four seasons. As the concubine of the Southern Prince of the Ming Dynasty, one set costs at least 80 taels of silver. There is also a fox fur cloak, so it is impossible to estimate the price. The Su family's aunt is so talkative. On the contrary, the aunt stopped taking money from the public, and she felt ashamed when it was spread.

The faces of the wives were burning hot, as if they had been slapped several times, while Ming Concubine got up and stood there with open arms, letting the embroiderer take her measurements.

As soon as Ming concubine had measured the size, the maid, Jadeite, came in with a tray. Inside the tray was a brocade box, which was inlaid with gold and jade. It was very valuable at first glance.

Pearl carried the brocade box to Mrs. Su, Mrs. Su opened the box, and concubine Ming was amazed. She exclaimed, "It's so beautiful!"

Su touched the brocade, Ming concubine asked, "Mother, what kind of brocade is this?"

Su smiled and said, "Zhaoxia Brocade, it was your grandmother who made my wedding dress back then. Mother is not willing to use it. Mother wants to see you get married in a beautiful way."

Morning glow brocade, as the name suggests, when worn on the body, it is as beautiful and gorgeous as mountains and rivers covered with morning glow. It is Su's love for his daughter.

Wei Mingqi stretched out her hand to touch it, and said enviously, "This Zhaoxia brocade is really beautiful. I have never seen a more beautiful brocade than it. The third sister fought with you before, but I didn't expect it to be yours in the end. Can't take it away."

Ming concubine fell into the water, her head was not bright, and she didn't like the old lady. Su Shi has always been very guilty, and wanted to give her the best.

But the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat. Zhaoxia brocade is just such a piece, which is only enough to make a wedding dress. It is not enough for Ming concubine and Wei Mingrou to separate. is her!

She ran away crying, what could the Su family do, but no one would give it, and continue to press the bottom of the box.
