The daily life of a cold and aloof general raising his wife

After Jiang Shurou left, Madam Gu began to have people organize the things in the mansion's storeroom.

Three days later, Lady Gu sent a list of dowry items to Marquis Dongping.

Marquis Dongping looked at the dowry list on the table, thinking that it had been a long time since he had seen Madam Gu.

He then took the dowry list to the courtyard opposite the Gu family's residence.

When Madam Gu heard the servants paying their respects to the Marquis of Dongping, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, but then she deliberately put on a stern face.

Looking at Madam Gu's retreating figure, Marquis Dongping knew that she was still angry with him.

"lady……"

Gu continued fiddling with the flowers in her hands without making a sound.

Upon seeing this, the servants inside retreated and closed the door.

Marquis Dongping stepped forward, "My lady..."

Gu turned away and ignored him.

"I was wrong."

"I really know I was wrong."

"I'm at your mercy, just pay attention to me."

Gu looked up at him and said sarcastically, "Oh, isn't this the Marquis of Dongping? What brings you here?"

Marquis Dongping was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "You are my wife, where else would I go if I didn't come here?"

Madam Gu snorted coldly, "Go wherever you want."

Marquis Dongping deliberately said, "Then I really will go."

Gu Shi immediately lost her composure, "You dare!"

Marquis Dongping smiled and pulled Gu Shi back, saying, "I certainly wouldn't dare."

Gu glanced at him, thinking he didn't have the guts.

Marquis Dongping adopted a very humble attitude, "Madam, let's not quarrel anymore, okay? I haven't been able to eat or drink properly lately."

Gu said aggrievedly, "You still say that? You yell at me all the time now. You never used to be like this."

Marquis Dongping immediately apologized, "Alright, alright, it's all my fault."

The couple reconciled just like that.

Afterwards, Marquis Dongping looked at the dowry list in his hand and felt that Madam Gu had not given enough, so he had some things added to it. Then, he took the list with satisfaction and went to the Grand Princess's residence.

The Grand Princess had asked Jiang Shuwan for her opinion on where she should marry.

In her previous life, Jiang Shuwan married into the Dongping Marquis's family. In this life, she wants to marry into the Grand Princess's family, and the Grand Princess agrees without even thinking about it.

The Marquis of Dongping came to the Grand Princess today and told him about this matter.

Marquis Dongping said that Jiang Shuwan could marry wherever she wanted, and he didn't want to cause any more conflict between family members.

“Mother, this is the dowry list that Peilan prepared for Wan’er.”

Without even glancing at it, the Grand Princess said to the person beside her, "Liu Hua, take the list to Wan'er."

"Yes."

After receiving the dowry list, Granny Zhou went to Jiang Shuwan's courtyard.

“I know what Madam Gu is thinking. Don’t worry, they are all my granddaughters. I won’t be so biased. I will also prepare a dowry for Shu Rou when she gets married.”

Ultimately, the Grand Princess should give her own son some face, since he is her biological son.

"I'm sorry to have worried my mother."

Marquis Dongping was quite pleased to hear this, at least he knew that his mother still cared about him and his little family.

After a few casual words, Marquis Dongping took his leave.

***

Jiang Shuwan looked at the dowry list on the table. This dowry was more than that of her previous life. She didn't know why it had changed, but she knew that Gu Shi was not willing to prepare it.

"Put your things away properly."

Jiang Shuwan handed the list to Feiyue.

Feiyue took it, "Yes."

After Jiang Shuwan came of age, the Grand Princess allowed her to manage her own courtyard and even arrange banquets. Therefore, in her previous life, when she married into the Huian Earl's Mansion, she was able to manage the mansion skillfully and never made a mistake.

With the dowry prepared by the Grand Princess, the betrothal gifts sent by Xie Huai'an, and the dowry from the Marquis of Dongping, Jiang Shuwan's dowry can be considered quite generous.

As her marriage drew closer, Jiang Shuwan found herself becoming increasingly nervous.

***

Madam Gu knew that Marquis Dongping had added a lot of things to the dowry list. Although she was angry, she didn't go directly to Marquis Dongping. The two of them made up and couldn't quarrel again.

Later, when the Marquis of Dongping told Lady Gu that the Grand Princess had personally said that she would also add to Jiang Shurou's dowry, she felt a little better.

Princess Yongning's marriage has always attracted much attention. Suddenly one day, a young eunuch from the palace went to the Huian Earl's residence to deliver an imperial edict.

After the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, apart from He Zhilin who was happy to express his gratitude, everyone else, including the Earl of Hui'an, looked extremely disgusted, as if they had swallowed a fly.

"Uncle Huian, we'll be leaving now." After saying this, the father-in-law saw that Uncle Huian didn't react at all, and then left.

He was announcing the imperial decree bestowing a marriage, and in principle he should have received a reward, but he didn't. Then he went to the Lin family to announce the decree again, but left empty-handed.

However, unlike the Huian Marquis's family, the Lin family was very happy to hear the imperial edict.

The eunuchs who were delivering the imperial decree were all unhappy. Last time they went to deliver the decree to the Grand Princess and General Xie, they were all given a reward!

The Huian Marquis's Mansion and the Lin Family were crossed out by the father-in-law.

The imperial edict was placed on the table.

Huianbo made He Zhilin kneel on the ground.

"You good-for-nothing! You're throwing away a bright future to beg the Emperor for a marriage decree. You're really something!"

He Zhilin had guessed that his father would be angry, and he was already mentally prepared.

"Father, please grant your son's wish."

Marquis Hui'an gritted his teeth and said, "How dare I refuse you? You've already obtained the imperial edict."

"Thank you father."

Huianbo angrily turned and left.

He was very disappointed in his son.

Ye had cursed Lin Ruoqing countless times in her heart, but when she saw her son kneeling on the ground, her heart softened.

"You've angered your father; you'll regret it later!"

He Zhilin knew this, but he thought that as long as he did something to make his father happy, his father would forgive him.

When Madam Ye returned to her courtyard, she began to curse Lin Ruoqing, blaming all the blame on her.

"That little vixen actually managed to coax her into a marriage by imperial decree. I really underestimated her."

The old nanny beside her advised, "Madam, don't be angry. She will enter the Marquis's mansion sooner or later. Then it will be easy to control her."

Ye snorted coldly, "Just wait and see."

Lin Ruoqing was immersed in joy at the moment, completely unaware that hard times were about to come for her.

He Zhilin didn't want to delay and wanted to get married as soon as possible. Coincidentally, his wedding date with Lin Ruoqing coincided with Jiang Shuwan's wedding date.

Before they knew it, their wedding day arrived.

Jiang Shuwan wore a wedding dress with a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix and five-colored cloud patterns. Her black hair was tied up and she wore a golden phoenix crown. Her eyebrows were lightly dyed, her lips were slightly rosy, and her fair skin was given a charming blush.

When Li Shu arrived, she was stunned to see Jiang Shuwan. She then joked, "Sister Wan, you are so beautiful. I'm mesmerized. When the groom arrives, he'll be so captivated that he won't know what to say."

Jiang Shuwan glanced at her and said, "What are you saying, girl?"

"My dear sister, it's fine if you look at me like that, but please don't look at the groom like that. I'm afraid the groom can't handle it."

Jiang Shuwan's ears turned slightly red from what she said. "I really should shut you up!"

Li Shu dared to joke like that because there was no one else in the room; the maids inside didn't dare to make a sound.

Princess Yong'an is incredibly bold; she dares to say such shameful things before even being married.
