Daily life of the mistress

Chapter 159 The Prince Stays at Aunt Ling's Place

Even if taking a concubine, it usually depends on the list of betrothal gifts given by the man.
    The Du family directly took out the dowry list.

    "Aruo's brothers took out their money to get married this time. They gave Aruo two shops, a farm, and two hundred acres of land as dowry."

    "As for the betrothal gifts, the Du family said that they don't want the Marquis' Mansion to pay a penny."

    Madam Wang stuffed the dowry list into Lu Lingyun's hand.

    From ancient times to the present, there have been few women who do not ask for a betrothal gift from the man's family, and instead bring a generous dowry to become someone's concubine.

    The Du family was so worried about Du Ruo and lost all their face.

    I just hope that Lu Lingjun will treat Du Ruo better in the future because of the Du family's sincerity.

    Lu Lingjun looked at the dowry list and couldn't help but say, "Aruo does have a good family."

    "Who said it wasn't true!" After Wang Xianzi finished her story, she began to complain, "That damn girl Du Ruo is really heartless and brainless! Her brothers are so good to her, and her aunt loves her so much that she chose a good marriage for her to be the main wife, but she can act so wickedly!"

    "He acts like a monkey, doing whatever he wants all day long! He doesn't follow any rules! He looks down on everyone."

    "She doesn't even know who she deserves! Guard Yu doesn't know about this yet. If he knew, he wouldn't want her! Such a good match, but she didn't want to be the wife. Now, she's rushing to be someone's concubine! Do you know? A few days ago, after the Du family asked Cheng Shizi to be their concubine, they turned around and told Du Ruo that you have no choice but to be a concubine. Do you know what Du Ruo said?"

    Lu Lingjun: "...How do you say that?"

    "Du Ruo said that she is willing to marry Master, even if she is a concubine!" Madam Wang imitated Du Ruo's tone, with a look of disgust on her face, "She is so happy! She is not reluctant at all. Last time we introduced her to be the principal wife, she kept on despising us. Now she is rushing to be a concubine! She will regret it in the future! Let her be tortured by the mistress!"

    Lu Lingyun: "......"

    After she finished the last sentence, she remembered that Lu Lingjun would be Du Ruo's mistress from now on. She hurriedly tried to make amends, "Sister Lu, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You are a rare kind-hearted person, and you are definitely not the mistress who is so annoying. But concubines these days are not as good as the main wife! How can being a concubine be good? How can she rush to be a concubine!"

    "I know." Lu Lingjun smiled faintly.

    "Oh! I don't care about that dead girl anymore. If she wants to be a concubine, then let her be a concubine! It's all her own fault anyway! She will have to live a hard life by herself in the future! No one will take care of her anymore!" Madam Wang was so disappointed in her.

    Three days later.

    Auspicious day.

    Lu Lingyun sent a betrothal gift to the Du family for becoming a concubine. The Du family said they didn't want it, but they still had to give it.

    Du Ruo entered the mansion as a concubine. The betrothal gifts, dowry and herself were all brought in through a side door in the evening in a sedan chair.

    The Du family felt ashamed and did not even hold a banquet for the concubine, let alone a ten-mile farewell party with music and dance.

    He sent the person to the Marquis' Mansion in a low-key and disdainful manner.
