My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

Zhao's wish was fulfilled and she smiled slightly.

She picked up a gold hairpin from her jewelry box and said, "Since you have no objection, I will give Wu Daxiao's family a reply. Don't worry, from the engagement, the betrothal, to the wedding, there is still at least a year to go. I will definitely not treat you unfairly and will prepare a generous dowry for you when the time comes."

Jinzhu took the golden hairpin and thanked him.

Only then was he sent out by Zhao.

When Jinzhu went out and met Yinzhu's sympathetic eyes, she smiled bitterly without any joy on her face.

But no one paid attention.

Zhao's treatment of Liu Sisi was just as she had expected, and it didn't cause any waves at all in the Marquis' Mansion.

Old Lady Bai didn't even mention it.

It's just a little money every month. Can you really send the girl back for such a small thing?

Moreover, the Zhao family has been very attentive these days, being humble and submissive, and serving the old lady Bai in every way, which has calmed down the old lady Bai.

But soon everyone really had no time to argue with Zhao.

Because Lan and Lu Zhenzhen are coming back.

As soon as Fu Zhiyi finished cleaning up the warehouse at Tingtaoju at home, he ran to the old marquis to ask for help.

Why did he call for help? Of course, he was going to pick up his mother and wife and take them home.

He has been alone in the empty house for quite some time. If his wife doesn't come back, he will become a stone waiting for his wife.

The old marquis pinched his nose and asked, "How many people do you want? How much dowry will the Lan family give?"

Fu Zhiyi thought about it and sent Daman to the Lan family to inquire.

It is said that there were forty-eight people carried.

The old marquis's face twitched. Minister Lan really set the standard of giving her less than Mrs. Hu and the same as Mrs. Sun.

He wanted to say a few more words, but seeing that Fu Zhiyi was eager to try and couldn't wait any longer, he closed his eyes and waved his hand to signal Fu Zhiyi to take people there quickly.

It would be better to bring Lan and Lu back earlier.

No matter what happens, it’s easier to deal with it at home.

Otherwise, in the Lan family, you would be constrained everywhere.

Fu Zhiyi agreed, called a hundred or so people, and went straight to the Lan family.

Of course he could see that the old marquis was unhappy, but he decided to pretend not to see it.

Didn’t the old marquis turn a blind eye to the injustice suffered by the mother and son?

He's just pretending to be ignorant even though he knows the truth. Who wouldn't do that?

When we arrived at the Lan family, we saw such a large group of people coming in a threatening manner.

It didn't look like they were going to pick up someone and the dowry, but rather to kidnap the bride.

The Lan family's doorman was frightened. If he hadn't noticed his master's eldest nephew, he would have probably sent someone to report to the military headquarters.

While leading people inside, he asked them to go in and report quickly.

Fu Zhiyi came and went freely in the Lan family, and seemed to be more familiar with them than his own home.

Just let the person leading the way step aside and go look for your grandmother yourself.

After this experience, he finally understood everything.

Now, in his grandparents' house, everyone treats him the same as before, except for his grandparents.

His status in the hearts of his uncle and aunt had plummeted, far inferior to that of his own wife.

If I go directly to my uncle, I'm afraid he will be able to come up with seventeen or eighteen reasons to refuse me.

It would be better to coax grandma first and let her give in. Then even if my uncle objects, it will be useless.

Fu Zhiyi, who had already thought of a plan, went straight to the main courtyard.

It was also a coincidence that today the first lady, third lady, three grandmothers, Lan, and Lu Zhenzhen of the Lan family were all in the main courtyard.

Copying the dowry list.

The courage was three feet long, which made Lu Zhenzhen amazed.

The first few things were those bestowed by the emperor, which counted as a dowry.

The second load was a reward from the four concubines in the palace.

Two of them went there, and the rest, in addition to the gifts received in the past few days, also included private subsidies from Mrs. Lan and Minister Lan.

Not to mention gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin clothes, all kinds of furs, various porcelains, precious medicinal materials, ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, there are also house deeds and land deeds.

The house deeds and land deeds were placed in a box, with bricks and tiles on top, representing the fields and houses.

Because there is no need to make beds or furniture, most of them are boxes and cages.

They were placed layer by layer, especially in the four corners of each box, where a gold or silver ingot was placed as a dowry.

After discussing with Minister Lan, the eldest lady of the Lan family decided to give Lu Zhenzhen a dowry of 500 acres of fertile land, two hills, a farm, two houses, and two shops.

In addition, the dowry is three thousand taels of silver.

This dowry was prepared for her according to the specifications of a daughter of the Lan family.

When Lu Zhenzhen learned about it, she strongly refused.

She was already very content to have Minister Lan and Madam Lan as her adoptive parents.

With this identity, she can stand tall and proud when interacting with the wives of officials in the capital, and no one dares to laugh at her. That's enough.

If she accepted the rest, it would be really shameless.

Although she loves money, she gets it in a proper way!

The Lan family paid so much for no reason, and although it was mostly for the sake of Lan and Fu Zhiyi, she still felt unworthy.

After all, this is not a small amount of money.

How could Lu Zhenzhen deserve such a great favor without giving anything in return?

One party insists on giving, and the other party refuses to accept.

The two sides suddenly reached a stalemate.

Fu Zhiyi arrived at the right time.

Madam Lan explained what had happened, and then asked Fu Zhiyi to persuade Lu Zhenzhen: "Why is this child so stubborn? Please try to persuade her--"

Fu Zhiyi agreed with a smile. This was a rare opportunity for him to be alone with his wife.

He brought his wife out openly and suggested finding a quiet place for them to have a good chat, such as Dongfeng Pavilion.

Lu Zhenzhen rolled her eyes at Fu Zhiyi but didn't object.

The two returned to Dongfeng Pavilion. Fu Zhiyi walked around the yard and nodded with satisfaction. His uncle did not treat his wife harshly.

The maids obediently served tea and snacks and then left.

As soon as everyone left, Fu Zhiyi moved closer to Lu Zhenzhen, wanting to get closer to his wife.

I haven’t seen my wife for a few days, and she seems to have lost weight. I feel so sad!

Lu Zhenzhen rolled her eyes. She had clearly become rounder, with flesh on her cheeks. Which eye could tell she'd lost weight?

Fu Zhiyi said he didn't care, he didn't care what his wife thought, he just felt that he was thinner.

While holding her in his arms, he rested his head on Lu Zhenzhen's shoulder and smelled the fragrance of his wife, and he felt complete.

"I haven't slept well these days since you were away from me—"

Complaint out of grievance.

Lu Zhenzhen chuckled: "Isn't it because your father asked you to write three articles a day?"

Fu Zhiyi's body stiffened, and the tips of his ears turned red. He cleared his throat and changed the subject: "Are you used to living here?"

Lu Zhenzhen looked up at the sky, even though she had been living well and sleeping soundly these past few days.

But since Fu Zhiyi asked this, I definitely can't tell the truth!

She coaxed Fu Zhiyi with a guilty conscience: "Although this place is nice, I still feel that Tingtaoju is our home. Nowhere can compare to home, especially since the Fourth Master is not here——"

With just one sentence, Fu Zhiyi couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. He tried hard to tighten his lips, but as expected, he failed.

In the end, the corners of her mouth were almost stretched to her ears, and she used force with her hands, as if she wanted to rub the person into her bones and blood, and murmured: "Don't worry, your husband will take you home today——"
