Chapter 201: The Dowry and betrothal gifts

After the general saw off the two daughters, he walked back to the Bodhi Courtyard with an impatient expression on his face.

The general has long legs and walks very fast, and Zheng Yuan trotted along beside him, telling him about several accidents that happened with the Miss in Wutong Courtyard.

The general looked hesitant and said: 『Didn't she see the doctor yesterday and say she's all right, why is she cramping again?』

Zheng Yuan replied: 『She has already eaten medicinal food and stewed tonic. The lady said it was because her feet are cold, especially since there is no burning earth dragon in the study, and the lady has a delicate body...』

The general said angrily: 『Why can't you find a room with a burning ground dragon for the young lady to rest? How can you let the lady catch a cold?!』

Zheng Yuan was frightened by the general's anger and said yes frequently, but he was distressed that there were not many burning earth dragons in ordinary yards.

Not to mention the difficulty of building the earth dragon, to maintain a suitable temperature in the house, experienced masters must take care of it. The Bodhi Courtyard was refurbished before the earth dragons were built in several rooms. It is said that only one bedroom in the courtyards of other masters has earth dragons.

Indus Courtyard is the courtyard of the Marquis, maybe...

Maybe I can find another bedroom with an earth dragon...

The more Zheng Yuan thought about it, the more pessimistic he became, sweat broke out on his forehead, and he ran a few steps to catch up with the general.

Looking at the general's iceberg-like side face, Zheng Yuan thought of saying something pleasant to make his master happy, so he mentioned: 『My lord, the thirty-two betrothal gifts and thirty-two dowry are all ready, and the old concubine's courtyard is packed to the brim.』

Originally, the man should prepare the betrothal gift and the woman should prepare the corresponding dowry, but the young lady was raised by the general's mansion, and she was married by the general's mansion or the marquis' mansion, so the general was happy to arrange the betrothal gift and dowry all by himself.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the frost on the general's face melted quickly, and he returned to his usual seriousness: 『It's about to snow, you have to put everything in the house, you know?』

After thinking for a while, he said: 『Hide it first, don't let the lady know.』

Zheng Yuan is very knowledgeable, knowing that the general meant to surprise the young lady, he immediately explains to the servants in the yard to not talk about it.

Especially the most thoughtless Lu'er, he doesn't know where she got the good luck to serve the young lady. If the young lady didn't miss her old love, this maid who always does bad things should have been kicked out of the house long ago.

Zheng Yuan felt relieved, and remembered another secret task, followed the general in a low voice: 『My lord, the warm jade you were looking for has also been found. It is a one-foot-square beige warm jade. It is of good color and extremely gentle and nourishing. It is such a rare sight.』

This topic made the general's face a little stiff, and he said seriously: 『Bought it?』

Zheng Yuan replied: 『As your lord said, I bought it at any price.』

The general ordered with a sullen face: 『Find the best master to carve and grind, start with a circumference of 21 centimeters, and increase the circumference of each piece by one centimeter.』
