The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story-Chapter 48 - 48 Dowry
48 Dowry
Madam Gu’s brows relaxed slightly.
She also knew that the Murong family was probably not enough to catch the Empress Dowager’s eye, but at least it was a good in-law. At least, it would make the Empress Dowager feel that this marriage was not useless to Kang Wang.
Madam Gu composed herself and rubbed the smooth Buddha beads with her fingers. “Xin Wen, go comfort Rong’er later and tell her not to think too much.”
“She’s young and hasn’t been through much. I’m afraid she’ll grieve over it.”
!!
As she spoke, Madam Gu’s eyes darkened.
Gu Yanfei was really heartless. She did not know how to be grateful!
At this moment, Madam Gu regretted it. She really shouldn’t have been soft-hearted and brought this girl back. She had put her precious Rong’er on the spot because of this!
Madam Wang immediately agreed. “I’ll go to Cai Ling Courtyard to visit Rong’er later.”
“This child has always been magnanimous and blessed. Mother, don’t worry too much.”
Madam Wang’s words touched Madam Gu’s heart. Madam Gu nodded slightly and agreed.
After Gu Jian and his wife persuaded Madam Gu to have a good rest, they left.
Gu Jian rushed out again. After Madam Wang came out of the Benevolent Harmony Hall, she went straight to Gu Yunrong’s Cai Ling Courtyard and instructed the servants to pass an invitation to the Murong family. She was so busy that she was constantly on the go.
Gu Yunzhen’s marriage had been decided three years ago. This year, the Murong family had already come to the Marquis Mansion twice to apply for an appointment. According to the rules, the woman would only agree solemnly on the third application.
Now that Murong Yong had returned with his military achievements, the two families’ discussion of the wedding date was quite festive.
Both parties were sincere, so in just 10 days, Gu Yunzhen’s wedding date was officially set.
It had been many years since the Gu family held a wedding. Gu Yunzhen was the eldest daughter and the first child of this generation to talk about marriage. For a moment, everyone in the Marquis Mansion was overjoyed.
As Gu Yunzhen’s cousin, after Gu Yanfei received the news, she specially made a trip to the Jiahui Courtyard to add to Gu Yunzhen’s dowry.
“Thank you, Second Sister.” Gu Yunzhen smiled and took the box from Gu Yanfei, looking a little shy.
She was wearing a bright red embroidered begonia dress. Her skin was as delicate and translucent as a pearl, and her autumn water eyes were gentle and moving. The wound on her forehead had already scabbed over and was hidden under her bangs.
Looking at the energetic Gu Yunzhen, Gu Yanfei’s gaze softened. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎
In this life, Gu Yunzhen’s wedding date was several months earlier than in her previous life.
In her previous life, Gu Yunzhen’s face had really been severely injured. It would take time for the wound to heal, so she naturally would not be in such a hurry.
It had rained several times in the past 10 days, and the wind from the window was still slightly damp.
“Big Sister, take a look at the gift I prepared for you.” Gu Yanfei opened the wooden box on the coffee table, revealing the item inside.
She had just returned to the residence and the jewelry she had was given by the residence. They were all ordinary things and were not suitable for Gu Yunzhen to add to her dowry.
She had prepared her dowry ceremony herself.
Gu Yanfei pointed at the item in the box and said, “This is incense that I made myself. It can calm one’s mind and nourish one’s energy.”
Gu Yunzhen held the small and exquisite pouch in her hand, her face flushed like a peach blossom. She said shyly, “I’ll take good care of it.”
Ever since they had spoken frankly to each other that day at Prince Jing’s Manor, Gu Yunzhen felt as if they had shared a secret. She treated Gu Yanfei much more intimately than before.
“Even if I get married, I’ll still be your sister. You can visit me at the Murong family often.”
The blush on her face deepened, and there was a hint of longing for the future between her brows.
Gu Yanfei looked at Gu Yunzhen in a daze. Suddenly, she thought of her previous life. Gu Yunzhen had returned to her maiden home once a month after she got married. At that time, Gu Yunzhen’s face was covered in scars that could not be covered by makeup. She had lost a lot of weight and was extremely haggard, looking like a completely different person from her current beautiful appearance.
“By the way.” Gu Yunzhen thought of something and took out a small red vest with a circle of white mink fur as if she was presenting a treasure. “Look at this. Does it look good?”
Gu Yanfei was speechless.
These clothes were clearly for Qing Guang.
Gu Yunzhen looked at the clothes left and right. The more she looked at them, the more satisfied she was. She said happily, “The winter in the capital is cold. With this on, Qing Guang won’t be cold.”
“I also made matching bibs, collars—”
As she spoke, the curtain was suddenly lifted. Gu Yunzhen’s maidservant walked over with a smile and reported, “My Lady, the Third Lady is here.”
Gu Yunzhen smiled and asked the maidservant to bring her over.
After a while, Gu Yunrong, who was dressed in a lilac-colored collared long skirt with a white striped dress, slowly walked towards the sisters. Her fair oval face was devoid of makeup, and her smile was shallow. She looked as refreshing as ever.
Gu Yunrong immediately noticed the wooden box between the two of them and said with a smile, “What a coincidence. Like my Second Sister, I’m also here to give you some dowry.”
As she spoke, Gu Yunrong nodded politely at Gu Yanfei as a form of greeting. Her smile seemed to imply that she had completely let go of the matter of Prince Jing’s Manor.
Gu Yanfei was also looking at Gu Yunrong with a dark expression.
A thick layer of gold light lingered around Gu Yunrong, as if it was about to overflow.
The wisps of white light on Gu Yunzhen’s body were like thin threads that were entangled by the golden light.
The golden aura around Gu Yunrong was full of vitality, but the white light on Gu Yunzhen’s body became a little dim.
This scene was invisible to the naked eye, and only Gu Yanfei saw it.
Gu Yanfei narrowed her eyes slightly.
She knew that this white light was Gu Yunzhen’s luck. The luck of ordinary people was like this. It was either weak or strong, but there would not be much difference, since Heaven’s Will was fair to most people.
Gu Yanfei could not help but think of Madam Yan’s words when she came out of the Benevolent Harmony Hall 10 days ago. She said that Gu Yunzhen had been implicated by Gu Yunrong since she was young…
She raised her right hand thoughtfully to push away the golden “air,” but felt a burning sensation on her palm.
She peeled the white light away from the golden aura and silently withdrew her hand.
Gu Yunzhen and Gu Yunrong were chatting happily without feeling anything strange.
Gu Yanfei raised her eyebrows slightly and watched as the surging golden light on Gu Yunrong’s body gradually calmed down.
...
It was done.
After sitting for a while longer, Gu Yanfei stood up and bade farewell. “Big Sister, I still have to go out, so I’ll leave first. I’ll look for you when I’m free.”
Gu Yunzhen did not keep her and instructed the maidservant to send Gu Yanfei out.
“Take care, Second Sister.” Gu Yunrong smiled generously. She thought that Gu Yanfei was deliberately avoiding her and did not mind.
“Big Sister.” She held Gu Yunzhen’s arm affectionately and sat down on the bed. “Look at this hairpin. Do you like it? I drew it myself and specially hired someone to make it…”
Gu Yanfei did not hear the rest.
After walking out of the house, Gu Yanfei looked down at her right palm. Her delicate palm was red from the heat.
She was injured by Gu Yunrong’s luck.
