Chapter 2808 Dowry

The palace has not held such a happy event for a long time.

Although Yun Dai said that the wedding should not be too extravagant, after all, it is a prince's wedding, and everything should be present.

As the quasi-princess, Caicai moved back to the Jin family half a month in advance.

After all, she is the legitimate daughter of the Jin family. If she wants to marry into the palace and become the princess, she still has to marry from the Jin family.

Hongdou, the mother-in-law, could only temporarily move into Jin's house.

Although she felt uncomfortable, Jin Lan got many opportunities to get along with her.

The Jin family now has only three masters in the back house, Mr. Jin, Jin Lan and the concubine Lianlian. As for the two aunts in Mr. Jin's backyard, they were brought up by maids of low status. In the eyes of everyone in the house, they are not considered masters.

At most it counts as half.

Lianlian also grew older. Although there was no mistress in the family, she, a concubine, and her two aunts discussed with each other and managed to survive.

But after Caicai, a serious legitimate daughter, came back, nothing happened to her.

Perhaps to show the palace how much the family valued Cai Cai, on the day Cai Cai moved back to Jin's house, Mr. Jin said in front of the whole family that he would hand over the stewardship to Cai Cai.

Lian Lian stood quietly in the corner, saying nothing.

Jin Lan had expected this and naturally would not object.

The servants in the mansion have nothing to say.

When the legitimate daughter comes, the concubine will naturally lean back.

But Caicai himself disagreed.

She came back to be married. Even if she was willing to take care of the house, how many days could she take care of it?

It won't be troublesome enough to have to hand it back to Jin Lianlian by then.

But Mr. Jin insisted.

He looked like he would never give up if Caicai didn't accept it.

Caicai had no choice but to continue temporarily, but felt puzzled in his heart. He wanted to ask his father what was going on, but his father refused to know.

After a few days of this, everything was fine in the house.

Even Lian Lian, the former housekeeper, and her two aunts did not show any dissatisfaction.

This made Mr. Jin very happy.

On the night before the wedding, Jin Lan specially called Cai Cai into the study room and talked to her for a long time, telling her about his guilt and letdown to their mother and daughter over the years.

As a daughter, Caicai didn't have much to say about matters between her parents.

She loves her father and pities her mother.

She thinks they are all very good people.

But now she has realized one thing, that is, two very good people cannot be together.

Jin Lan looked at her slim and beautiful daughter, pushed a rosewood box with gold edges on the table, and said: "You have been living with your mother these years, and your father has not taken much care of you. You will get married tomorrow, this For you."

"What is this?" Cai Cai asked.

"open to take a look."

Caicai opened the box, and a faint woody scent came to his nose.

This is a dowry box with three layers in total, the top of which is a delicate peony pattern. It opens to reveal a smooth and delicate bronze mirror.

The first floor displays earrings, rings, gemstone collar buttons and other small jewelry.

The second layer is bracelets and necklaces, including jade, pearl, pure gold, and gemstones. The third floor is the largest. Inside is a set of jade headdresses. The head of the jade is shiny, and it is obvious at a glance that it is worth a lot of money.

Caicai read it over and closed the box carefully, "Father, what is this?"

"This is something left by your grandmother." A smile appeared on Jin Lan's lips, "It looks old, doesn't it? It's your grandmother's dowry back then."
