Traveling through books to ancient times, I provoke the love of villains and powerful ministers

Li Wenkang and his wife looked at the betrothal gifts in the yard, and the only thought in their hearts was that fortunately, they had prepared a lot of dowry, otherwise they would not make people feel that his family was selling their daughter.

But these dowry gifts will also be added to the dowry for the niece and daughter to bring to her husband's house.

After sending the matchmaker away, Li Wenkang ordered the servants at home to carry the betrothal gifts to Qi Qingxi's courtyard.

Qi Qingxi was really surprised when she saw so many betrothal gifts. She even suspected that Gu Yu had emptied his entire family in order to marry her.

After Mrs. Guo asked the nuns around her to check the dowry gift, she handed over the dowry gift list to Qi Qingxi for safe keeping.

In the following days, Qi Qingxi stayed quietly in the mansion to be married.

One day, Li Wenkang returned home excitedly, but no matter how Mrs. Guo asked him, he would not say what happened.

Li Wenkang didn't speak until dinner time, when the whole family sat neatly at the dining table.

"I have some news to tell you that the case of the Ansui Li family who came to our house to make trouble before has been sentenced. All the men involved will be executed, and everyone else will be sent to Lingnan."

Qi Qingxi was not surprised to know the news from Gu Yu.

However, Li Wenkang's words were not finished: "There is also the old lady of the Li family, who doesn't know the heights of the heavens and the earth, and shouts grievances indiscriminately, uttering wild words, saying that the emperor will be struck by lightning if he murders their family like this. The emperor Long Yan was furious. Deciding to give a heavier punishment, the old lady was personally ordered to be executed by the emperor, and even her natal family was also fined and exiled."

Qi Qingxi didn't expect this result, but Mrs. Li has no way to teach her son and openly insulted the imperial power, this result is not wronged, even if she doesn't die this time, she will kill herself sooner or later.

"Ansui Li's family has deserved this retribution, and it can be regarded as a comfort to the spirits of your grandmother and aunt. Tomorrow, you all follow me back to Li's house, and you have to tell your grandmother the good news. And Qingxi is getting married. You have to tell your uncles and aunts about the matter."

The next day, Li Wenkang and his wife took their children back to Li's house to worship their ancestors.

Soon it was the eve of the wedding.

Wang Wanru, Guan Shi and Gao Shi came to the mansion to add makeup to Qi Qingxi.

What Guan gave to Qi Qingxi was a set of gilt-dot emerald-inlaid ruby ​​heads, which looked very luxurious, and Wang Wanru gave a set of gold-encrusted jade fairy and rabbit jewelry.

Gao walked up to Qi Qingxi with a box in his arms, and said with a soft smile: "Congratulations on your great joy, you know that I have nothing else to do except making clothes, I hope you like it."

Qi Qingxi opened the box, and inside was a set of begonia red, rich and auspicious clothes with silver thread and peony pattern, the workmanship was extremely exquisite.

She looked at the gifts that the three of them gave her to add makeup, and the indescribable joy in her heart was not how precious these gifts were, but the friendship the three of them had for her.

The three of them were about to leave after delivering their things, Qi Qingxi wanted to keep them in the mansion for dinner but he didn't.

Not long after seeing off Wang Wanru and the three, Panchun, the maid beside Zhao Jingwan, also came, and she was also ordered by Zhao Jingwan to add makeup to Qi Qingxi.

"My master said that although she is the cousin's sister-in-law, she is also your sister. As your sister, she naturally wants to send her heart."

Panchun opened the box in his hand, inside was a pair of butterfly love flowers, pomegranates, Ruyi tortoise shell wrapped in silk.

Qi Qingxi smiled and said, "I'm sorry to bother you to go back and thank Sister Jingwan for me."

Pan Chun responded to Qi Qingxi's words with a smile, and went back to report.

What Qi Qingxi didn't expect the most was that the wives and ladies of Guo's mansion also came to Qi's mansion to add makeup to her. She was really surprised when Guo brought a group of people into her yard.

Even the Guo family uncle who scolded her for being uneducated earlier followed, but she didn't come to add makeup.

With the Guo family by her side, this uncle of the Guo family can be said to have put on all the airs of the elders.

First, let Mrs. Guo take her to look at Qi Qingxi's dowry and dowry boxes one by one, and then comment on it.

Guo's uncle pointed at the dowry, with a disapproving expression on her face: "Look at Gu Zicong, who is so ignorant, he shouldn't waste money like this if he has money in his family, and it's not like hiring a lady from a great family. battle?"

After these words, Xu felt that he was only angry when he criticized Gu Yu, and then began to criticize Li Wenkang and his wife: "Tell me about your husband and wife, this girl is surnamed Qi or Li, and she doesn't have a relationship with our Guo Yu." The girl in my family is of Guo family blood like A Min, so it is a waste of money to need so much dowry. In my opinion, hurry up and bring the dowry list before she is married, and I will help you to look at it and delete it. Cut it in half."

At the end, she muttered in a voice that could be heard by everyone present: "There are still several girls in the Guo family who are not married. It's really not good to waste money on such irrelevant people."

After hearing these words, Mrs. Guo's face was as black as charcoal, but this uncle Guo was her aunt after all, and it was really hard for her to scold back in front of so many juniors.

She really wanted to find a cloth to gag her aunt now.

Guo is used to her, but Qi Qingxi is not.

She originally thought that if someone came to congratulate him sincerely, she would let the past go and entertain him.

But obviously not.

Qi Qingxi snorted coldly: "That's really helpful. The second lady of the Guo family came to this Qi's house to give advice on how to live. I think Mrs. Guo's second wife is living a very good life, and the children in the family are all promising. Otherwise, where would the face be? Someone’s home to teach, what about Mrs. Guo Ertai.”

"You...you..." Aunt Guo was so angry that Qi Qingxi couldn't speak well.

However, after a while, the uncle began to put on airs of an elder again.

She said to Qi Qingxi: "You are young, and I don't blame you. But as an elder, I still have to say a few words to you. Although you are going to marry into someone else's family, don't forget that you are from the Li family. Going out girl, you should think more about your uncle and aunt in everything from now on."

Qi Qingxi raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, but she didn't expect that the uncle of the Guo family could still spit out some ivory.

But in the next second, Qi Qingxi realized that he had spoken too early, this Aunt Guo is a dog who can't spit out ivory.

"Also don't forget, besides your uncle and aunt's family, our Guo family is now considered your in-laws. You have to take care of those in our family who you call cousins. Not to mention far away, we My second wife."

Aunt Guo glanced at Qi Qingxi, afraid that she would not understand, and explained: "That is your aunt's cousin. Her son-in-law is now in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he is a small supervisory censor. Isn't the Gu Zicong you married? The imperial censor of the court? You ask him to help you..."

She thought for a long time before she thought of the title between her niece and son-in-law and Qi Qingxi: "Yes, your cousin, you have to help him and say that he has a high official position, so it's not cheap. Gu Zicong will be more helpful in the Metropolitan Procuratorate."
