"Is this... true?" Li Xiangning couldn't believe it. After all, no family in the five surnames and seven sects could marry such a generous dowry. It would be good if the woman didn't give it back.

Li Xiangning looked at the only two lines of words on the gift list and thought: If Li Jing gave the dowry according to the common etiquette... I wonder if all the industries in Sanyuan Lizhuang were sold were equal to one of them?

When Li Yunshang saw her, her cheeks turned red when she saw the gift list. She remembered what her father and mother said last night. She didn’t know how to buy Xi Jun in the future, and she didn’t know if she would be ‘bullied’ after entering the Xi family because she had too little dowry?

"What did your father and mother say?" Compared to Li Yunshang, Li Xiangning cared more about her family's attitude. She could no longer have the desire to compete at this time. She just wanted to know how Li Jing and Zhang Chuchen would solve this embarrassing situation.

The Sui and Tang dynasties paid attention to a good match. The man’s dowry was a daughter, and the woman’s dowry was generally more than a daughter or twice as much. In this way, the daughter would not suffer any grievances in her in-laws' house and would not even dare to say anything.

Moreover, the dowry is for the daughter. The only one who can inherit the dowry is the daughter's offspring. The in-laws and even the husband have no right to interfere. This is the protection of women and is written into the law.

Therefore, women in the Tang Dynasty are very domineering. They live a bad life at home, and they are not satisfied with their husbands, and they are all commonplace for women in the Tang Dynasty.

When Li Yunshang heard his sister come to ask, she couldn't help but sigh.

Li Jing: Fortunately, it’s Dalang. If it were Erlang, my father would definitely not dare to ask for this bride price.

Zhang Chuchen: Hahahaha!!!

Thinking of his father and mother's completely different attitudes, Li Yunshang didn't know whether it was good or bad. However, I think Xi Junmai is pure and kind, so it should be... very easy to deal with!

The two sisters were chatting together, but a group of embroidery girls came to the gate of Li's mansion.

"What's going on?" Zhang Chuchen asked curiously when he saw the butler leading more than a dozen embroidered ladies into the door.

The housekeeper was an old man from Sanyuan. He responded happily after hearing this: "Madam, these are all embroidered ladies sent by the Xi family. They said they were here to give Sanya a dress. They changed the size overnight to deal with tomorrow's engagement banquet."

When Zhang Chuchen heard this, he was stunned at first. Just as he was about to speak, the embroidered lady in the opposite direction explained: "Mrs. Li, don't worry too much. Mrs. Li knows that you have made arrangements, just ask us to send it to you and your wife. If you like it, stay here. It's a good idea to be an uncle."

Zhang Chuchen waved her hand, but she was not so stingy. Although she had prepared several sets of dresses, she hurriedly rushed from Sanyuan where would there be any good things...

"Wait, the Langjun you are talking about... is Erlang?" Zhang Chuchen thought of a very important question.

The embroidered lady nodded: "It's my little husband."

Zhang Chuchen was happy when he heard this, hurriedly let his body over and asked, "Several sisters, come with my sister."

As he said that, without waiting for the embroiderers to respond, he took the lead in walking towards the backyard excitedly.

The group arrived at Li Yunshang's alone courtyard in less than a moment.

"Shang'er, open the door quickly." Although he shouted, Zhang Chuchen had already pushed the door open, but he was carrying women behind him.

Li Yunshang and Li Xiangning, who were chatting, were surprised when they saw Zhang Chuchen rushing in.

After seeing the embroidered lady who was following, the two girls stood up and stood on one side.

"Mom, is this?" Li Yunshang looked at the embroidered lady in confusion.

Zhang Chuchen pointed to the table in the middle of the main hall and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, take out my dress first."

The embroidered lady first respectfully bowed to Li Yunshangfu before directing the people around her to move away the teapot candied fruit on the high-legged table.

After cleaning up the things on the table, two embroiderers spread a clean red silk on the tabletop as a tablecloth.

"Madam Li, please see, my wife, this first thing is called Yueniao Qi Nanzhi... My husband said that this Yueniao is also called Peacock, and it is the auspicious thing in this world that is second only to the sacred bird Phoenix."

As he said that, the embroidered woman waved, and two embroidered women walked up with a sandalwood box.

"This set can be used as a wedding dress for the ladies. It weighs 6 kilograms and 8 liang, including 12 headdresses and seven other bracelets and jade rings..."

The embroidered lady opened the sandalwood box while introducing it.

Zhang Chuchen, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but take a step forward, and when the sandalwood box was lifted, his eyes widened.

It’s not that she is not calm, but that she is really unable to calm down.

Women are born with no resistance to golden objects.

The embroidered girl in the lead carefully helped out a top piece and said, "It should be nothing serious about jewelry and other things. Now the top piece is afraid of not fitting. The husband specially asked us to come and change the size..."

The embroidered lady was talking, but suddenly a shadow flashed across the corner of her eyes, and then she felt her hands lightening.

Zhang Chuchen moved quickly, spreading his shirt on the table, touching the peonies and flower branches made of gold and silver threads on the collar, so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Li Yunshang and Li Xiangning also surrounded him. The latter couldn't help but reach out to touch the peacock's head on his chest, because there was a very huge cat's eye stone embroidered into the peacock's eyes, and the peacock was one on the left and right...

Li Yunshang touched the peacock's feathers. The embroidered woman seemed to recognize her future mistress and explained with a smile: "My wife, please see, this pair of Yuebirds is made of 216 feathers, each feather is made of pure gold, and the beads of even tin feathers are called garnet, and each individual ring is worth 300 guan... There are a total of 216 feathers corresponding to the feathers on Yuebird's body, and there is another exquisite Yuebird pattern on the hem of the skirt, which is also made of the same material."

Li Yunshang was stunned when he heard it, and his heart was even more ups and downs. He didn't know how much this dress would cost. He was a little nervous and liked it, but he didn't dare to accept it.

Zhang Chuchen was very determined. He touched the auspicious clouds, peonies, flower thorns and brocades embroidered with gold and silver threads, and wanted to let his daughter change them immediately. When he heard the embroiderer say that the hem of the skirt also had the same design, he walked to the sandalwood box and lifted the skirt out of his lower body.

Hurry~

As Zhang Chuchen's actions came, there was a pleasant sound of impact.

The three girls looked down and found that the end of the skirt with the lower outfit was also decorated, and it depends on the material?!

The embroidered lady pointed to the hem of the skirt and said, "This design is called the tassel, Yaoyue. Each tassel has eight pearls thick in series, a total of one or eight..."

Li Xiangning, who was standing beside Li Yunshang, was already extremely shocked at this moment. She touched the dress with a complicated mood and lowered her body and praised: "The goose neck was open and the goose was brilliant, the tassels were thick and dyed with spring smoke... If the shoulders were cut, the waist was as smooth as the waist... This unique top design contrasted with Sanniang's figure... The specially narrowed waist and nine-point long sleeves were more heroic than ordinary wedding dresses..."

The embroidered lady looked around and listened to all directions. When she heard this, she stretched out her thumb and said, "This lady is so good. My husband also said that our eldest lady is not suitable for wearing those loose dresses, so she specially ordered us to design these three sets of dresses for the eldest lady and the eldest lady!"

When Li Yunshang heard the embroiderer calling him the eldest lady, his cheeks were so embarrassed that he blushed.

However, Zhang Chuchen and Li Xiangning were stunned when they heard this, and almost said in surprise: "Do you think there are three sets of such dresses designed in total?"

The embroidered lady nodded as expected and pointed behind her and said, "Of course, three sets need to be prepared. This set is just a wedding ceremony suit, and there is also a toast suit called "Hundred Birds and Phoenixes", and a set of wedding suits called "Peacock Flying Southeast". They all use the best Shu brocade, gold silk and silver thread, pearl agate, and various jade treasures, and there is no shortage of them!"
