Chapter 236: 236
There is a world of difference between the prince's side concubine and the prince's side concubine.

With the status of the Liu family, Yao'er will at least be a noble concubine in the future. If Concubine Shu and the second prince are willing, it is not impossible for the first wife to die of illness and make Yao'er the queen.

But these are all empty talk...

Hmph, her daughter will not be well, and she will definitely not be cheap to Aunt Qiu's mother and daughter.

Lujia
Qiao Jingru went back to Qiao's house, and now Lu Xiang is in charge of the Lu family. When Lu Youping heard her mother-in-law come to report that the fourth lady wanted to let the people who served in Mingjiao courtyard go back, Lu Youping handed over the matter to Lu Xiang. up.

Early the next morning, several women and maids stood in the courtyard of Mingjiao Courtyard.

The warm wind is blowing, and the air is filled with the clear fragrance of grass and trees.

Lu Mingzhu regained her strength, but her face was more swollen than yesterday. After looking in the mirror for a long time, she was so angry that she dropped the mirror. She hid in the room and did not go out to meet people.

Huamei and Lan Qiu didn't want to make people laugh at them, so they asked Luye to settle them down. Anyway, what they used to do in Mingjiao Courtyard is what they are doing now.

Lu Mingzhu called Luye to call Qin's mother.

Qin's mother knocked on the door: "Miss Fourth..."

Lu Mingzhu heard Qin's mother's voice and let her into the house.

"Miss Fourth is looking for a slave?"

Lu Mingzhu leaned against the head of the bed, nodded and said: "Well, my servant just returned to Mingjiao Courtyard, I'm afraid I'm restless, I can't leave the room for the time being, please help me keep an eye on it."

Qin's mother bowed her head and replied: "Thanks to Miss Fourth's attention, this servant will definitely live up to Miss Fourth's expectations."

Lu Mingzhu smiled in satisfaction, but hissed painfully when she pulled the corner of her mouth, and said, "Did Dad tell you whether you can go in and out of the yard?"

Qin's mother said: "The master left this matter to the third lady. The third lady said that one person can go out of our courtyard every day, but not out of the house."

When Lu Mingzhu heard that Lu Xiang was in charge of the mansion, her expression was gloomy: "Okay, I understand, if anyone feels uncomfortable, just drive them out."

"Miss Si said so, and the servants can let go. Among the people who came back this time, there is one woman and two maidservants missing. The third lady has added a newcomer. The servants will watch them carefully. Thrush and Lan Qiu and the two were seriously injured, so let's rest for a few days, and the servants will take care of Mingjiao Courtyard."

"Okay, I don't worry about you doing things, go."

Did the three people who left feel that her place has become a cold stove and it is not worth coming back?
Hmph, there are always times when they regret it.

Qin's mother nodded: "Yes, the servant will leave, and the third lady can tell the servant if you have something to do."

A few days later, Xiao Muheng sent a betrothal gift, and it was decided that Nalu Mingzhu would enter the door on the tenth day of May.

Two mahogany boxes were placed in the yard of Mingjiao Courtyard, looking very shabby.

Lu Mingzhu's nose turned sour and her eyes were red.

This dowry is too little.

And the box doesn't look too big.

Huamei and Lan Qiu's complexions were not any better. Although the swelling on their faces had subsided a lot, the bruises did not dissipate, and they looked a little hideous.

Qin's mother quickly comforted her softly: "Don't be sad, Miss Si, because the rules and etiquette of taking concubines are there. If it is high-profile, it will cause slander, and the Liu family will not be able to explain it."

Huamei thought for a while, and felt that what Qin's mother said made sense: "Miss, Qin's mother is right."

Lu Mingzhu wiped her eyes, with a look of bearing the humiliation: "I don't care how much the dowry is, as long as Brother Heng has me in his heart, these external things are not important."

Yes, she was not wronged because of the small dowry.

I hate that once her mother died, all her things were filled in the public house. I didn't know what dowry my mother had prepared for her. Now that the Lu family is in charge of Lu Xiang, that little bitch hates herself so much, she will prepare things for her ?
Fu Yuan Tang

It was precisely because of Lu Mingzhu's dowry that Lu Xiang came to see the old lady.

"Grandmother, the fourth sister has decided to come in on the tenth day of the fifth lunar month. The Xiao family sent a dowry today. Let me ask my grandmother how to prepare for her dowry?"

Now when the old lady heard about Lu Mingzhu, she couldn't help but frown.

"It's a concubine, so follow the rules."

Lu Xiang blinked with a dazed expression.

The old lady paused, then remembered that her precious granddaughter was only fifteen years old this year, and her birthday hadn't passed yet, so how did she know what the rules of taking concubines are.

"Let's leave this to Mother Wen," said the old lady.

Lu Xiang showed a cute smile and nodded: "Okay, if Mommy Wen needs my help, just ask."

Mother Wen responded, "Yes."

The old lady said with a bad face: "It's just going to be someone's concubine, how troublesome it can be."

"Then shall we have a banquet?"

"No need, the Lu family has a daughter who is a concubine, and she is a merchant, it's really embarrassing." The old lady said angrily.

Although the concubine daughters of the Lu family are not allowed to marry high, it is not impossible to find a good family to marry and become a regular wife. Lu Mingzhu herself has no shame, so is it possible that the Lu family should give her a good fortune?
Bah, she can't afford to lose this man.

Even if the second girl is someone's successor, she is still a serious wife, and the Zhou family's family was even higher than that of the Lu family.

She is really a daughter raised in the outside room, shameless.

When the old lady said so, Lu Xiang really let go and let Mother Wen go to prepare for Lu Mingzhu's marriage.

When Lu Mingzhu learned that her marriage was arranged by a servant, she was so angry that she almost fainted. She lay on the bed and cried for a while, scolding the old lady for being too bullying, and saying harsh words that she would make these people look good when she turned around.

Qin's mother didn't bother to go into the room to comfort her, she just pretended she didn't hear her and let her cry.

Lu Mingzhu wanted to see Lu Youping and begged him to make decisions for her, but when the word spread to the front yard, Lu Youping scolded her back and asked her to settle down before she got married and stop messing around, otherwise she would be expelled from the Lu family.

Lu Mingzhu choked with fright at the thought of Lu Yue who was kicked out of the Lu family. She just cried and didn't dare to make trouble anymore.

Similarly, Liu Anyao's wedding date has also been set, and on May 28, the Liu family is also busy preparing for the wedding.

Xiao Muheng dared to neglect Lu Mingzhu, but he didn't dare to perfunctory Liu's family, so the dowry was a full 58 liters, carried all the way from the street to Liu's house, which earned a lot of envy and jealousy from others, and also made Liu Xiang feel dissatisfied with Xiao Muheng in his heart. Not a lot.

As the concubine's daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Mrs. Liu prepared a generous dowry for her early in order to prepare her daughter for a high marriage in the future. Even if she is married low now, Mrs. Liu is unwilling to let her daughter be wronged.

It's just that the dowry can be prepared early, but there is no wedding dress. Mrs. Liu is thinking about her daughter's grand marriage, and after the marriage is arranged, she will find the best embroiderer in the capital to make the most gorgeous wedding dress for her. Time is running out, and she doesn't know Can you make a satisfactory wedding dress?

When Mrs. Liu wakes up every day, all she can think about is Liu Anyao's preparation for marriage, even on the way into the palace, she doesn't come back to herself until the carriage stops and Mama Wu yells outside.
