The queen of the end times is reborn and goes crazy, her whole family is burned to death
Chapter 67: Grand wedding, show off the dowry!
At this moment, there was a loud sound of gongs and drums outside the door, and people were calling out for the door.
Someone in the crowd exclaimed, "The wedding procession is here!"
However, everyone stood at the door with the intention of watching the joke. No one blocked the door, and no one came forward to greet.
"Miss Yan, General Qin has arrived. If you really don't have a dowry, we sisters would be happy to each give you one, just to make things more presentable for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter, and everyone regarded Yan Wanwan as an object of their amusement.
Yan Wanwan seemed not to hear the laughter. She straightened her clothes calmly and walked towards the door with light steps.
She has a graceful figure, and although she is not wearing fancy clothes, she has a unique demeanor.
Seeing her reaction like this, everyone's laughter gradually died down, and they all looked at her curiously to see how she would respond.
Yan Wanwan walked to the door and raised her hand to open it. Xiao Tao, the maid beside her, was so anxious that her eyes were red. She whispered, "Miss, this is not allowed. How can you open the door without waiting for the groom to pay his respects? They will definitely look down on you even more."
Yan Wanwan gently patted Xiaotao's hand and said softly, "It's okay."
Having said that, the door opened.
Qin Yu, dressed in military uniform, sat upright on horseback, his posture like a verdant pine or cypress, proudly standing tall. His sword-like eyebrows slanted into his temples, his eyes were like cold stars, and he exuded a heroic spirit that rushed towards him.
Just looking at his imposing demeanor, who could have guessed that he was a person with a leg disease?
People on the street were talking about it, "Is General Qin's leg healed?"
"It looks like it. He doesn't need a wheelchair anymore, so he must be fine."
"God bless! General Qin's leg has healed. Our God of War is back."
Everyone was immersed in joy, but the ladies peeking from inside the room all had gloomy expressions. From the moment they saw Qin Yu's attire, regret spread through their hearts. Qin Yu's childhood sweetheart, in particular, was filled with remorse. What if a broken leg mattered? Qin Yu's outstanding appearance more than made up for it. He was so handsome that just looking at his face could whet one's appetite and make them eat two more bowls of rice.
Looking behind Qin Yu, the wedding procession stretched endlessly. While the betrothal gifts weren't lavish, they were still quite generous. The noble ladies resented themselves, blaming themselves for not fighting for Qin Yu's leg when she broke it. Otherwise, how could the position of general's wife be taken away by a village girl?
Yan Wanwan took those angry glances as compliments and smiled sweetly at Qin Yu. Qin Yu caught a glimpse of her smile, a subtle flash of surprise in his eyes. He then bowed and said, "Miss Wanwan, I've come to greet you." Yan Wanwan bowed gently and replied gently, "You're welcome, General."
The gossipers nearby began to whisper to each other, "Look at Yan Wanwan, she agreed so readily. I'm afraid she must have been looking forward to this day for a long time."
"Humph, the general is just pitying her. With no dowry and a bad reputation, only the general would want her."
Yan Wanwan, however, seemed unconcerned with the crowd's comments. She simply smiled at Qin Yu and said, "General Qin, you heard it too. I have nothing. Are you really willing to marry me?"
Qin Yu hurriedly stepped forward, took Yan Wanwan's hand, and said gently, "From now on, you are my wife, Qin. I will protect you well. Don't worry about those gossips."
After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and in an instant, the servants lined up like a long dragon, carrying boxes of betrothal gifts and coming in one after another.
Facing Yan Wanwan's astonished gaze, Qin Yu said sincerely, "Since you don't have a dowry, I will buy one for you and will not let you suffer any injustice."
Yan Wanwan's heart moved quietly, and there were some indescribable expressions in her eyes.
"You're a good person, don't worry! Since you're mine, Yan Wanwan's, I won't let you suffer any injustice."
After saying that, she pulled Qin Yu to the front hall, said goodbye to her mother and stepped directly into the bridal sedan chair.
However, in the eyes of others, this series of actions appeared to be impatience.
"Look, she's so anxious even though she doesn't have a dowry. Otherwise, if General Qin breaks off the engagement, she won't have anywhere to cry."
Wang Yuhua memorized the appearance of these people and gave instructions to the housekeeper beside him.
At this moment, the door of the adjacent courtyard suddenly opened, and the servants of the Yan family, dressed in brand new wedding clothes, came out one after another, carrying boxes of dowry in high spirits.
Everyone gasped when they saw this. In just a short while, more than sixty loads had been carried out.
"Whose family is this next door? Such a generous dowry!" The crowd immediately started talking.
However, those with sharp eyes noticed that the servants were following closely behind Yan Wanwan's wedding sedan.
A noble lady shouted in surprise, "You followed the wrong sedan chair! This is Yan Wanwan's wedding sedan!"
The servant immediately responded loudly: "We are servants of the Yan family, and we are not following the wrong people."
A noble lady pointed at the boxes in disbelief and asked, "What about these dowries...?"
The servant held his head high and proudly replied, "These are all my young lady's dowry, a total of 208 sets."
As soon as these words were spoken, the sound of people gasping for breath came from all around.
Yan Xiaorui raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes full of pride, and chuckled softly, "My little sister's dowry is really too much. One courtyard can't hold it all, so it's temporarily placed in the house next door. I never thought that these noble ladies of Jingzhao are so ignorant. Could it be that your own dowry is only enough to fill your own courtyard?"
The faces of the noble ladies who had previously ridiculed Yan Wanwan suddenly became extremely ugly, as black as coal.
Boxes of dowry came out slowly like a long winding dragon. Everyone was so shocked that they stood still, as if they were under a spell.
The people were very excited and counted the dowries loudly at the top of their lungs, with laughter and joy filling the air.
At this time, the wedding procession had already returned to the general's mansion, but most of Yan Wanwan's dowry was still left in the mansion and had not yet set off.
Inside the general's mansion, everyone had already heard the rumors outside.
Many people thought those words were just bluffing and exaggeration. In their opinion, even if Lu Zhengping was a minister, he would definitely not be able to prepare such a generous dowry.
"I heard that General Qin's leg disease has been cured."
"Exactly! Someone saw General Qin mount his horse and go to greet them."
"Who on earth is Yan Wanwan? A dowry of over 200 yuan is definitely not something an ordinary family can afford."
At this time, someone said in a sour tone: "Humph, they are just some boxes. Maybe they are completely empty and there is nothing inside."
When everyone heard this, they all burst into laughter.
However, some people are skeptical, thinking that since the Yan family dares to publicize the amount of the dowry so loudly, it must be more than just a pretense.
As everyone was discussing this, the general's housekeeper hurried over and whispered to a steward, "Housekeeper, Miss Yan's dowry has arrived at the gate, but the scene is quite shocking."
The housekeeper went out with a few guards, smiling happily. They saw the dowry being carried into the mansion one by one. The boxes and baskets were all exquisite and gorgeous, with intricate carvings on them. Wherever they passed, there was a faint scent of a mixture of wood and spices.
Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to him, and the man who had just been making sarcastic remarks couldn't help but shut up.
As the dowry was carried in one after another, everyone gradually realized that these boxes were heavy and obviously not empty.
A few nosy maids came forward to help place the dowry and accidentally bumped into a box, from which a crisp sound of porcelain colliding could be heard.
Everyone was surprised. It seemed that the items in the dowry were all real and precious things.
The maid Xiao Tao stood aside, with a hint of pride on her face. She shouted, "Show me the dowry!"
