Chapter 334: Bride Price and Dowry
"My Ali is so nice."
Shen Li raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't talk nonsense, it's not yours yet."
After hearing this, Pei Yu acted as if he had suddenly realized something. "Oh, I see. Ah Li, are you urging me to propose marriage as soon as possible?"
Shen Li glanced at him and said, "Come on, tell me, which word in what I just said has this meaning?"
"No," Pei Yu shook his head, and then continued: "Although you may not mean this, but in my ears, this is what it means. Don't worry, I will try my best."
Shen Li couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He didn't expect that his ears had this function.
"Then come on."
Pei Yu smiled even more brightly. Ah Li did not refuse, so it was time to pack the things needed for the marriage proposal.
At this moment, I can't help but imagine the days after marriage in my mind.
Shen Li just looked at the man opposite her and heard bursts of happy laughter, as if there was some great joy coming.
If only I had a camera or a cell phone, I could record his silly behavior and leave it for him to watch later.
Thinking of this, Shen Li simply propped up her chin and stared at him. Even without a cell phone and a camera, he still had his hands, right?
I haven't mastered the complicated things like painting yet, so when the time comes, I can just draw a few sketches. Sketches are simpler and more direct, but they don't have colors. These are all minor problems.
Pei Yu quickly came back to his senses and saw the person opposite him staring at him, "What's wrong, A-Li, is there something on my face?"
"No, I just saw you were smiling so happily just now, and I wanted to know what good things you were thinking about."
The smile on Pei Yu's face froze for a moment, and then he changed the subject as if nothing had happened.
"Ali, come on, I made some jewelry for you, let me show you."
"Okay!"
For women, beautiful things are always irresistible, especially when they are given by their loved ones, the meaning is even more different.
The two came to the small warehouse in Pei Yu's yard. As soon as they opened the door, they saw two rows of cloths at the door. There were rich colors and both light and dark colors. The cloths were all from the same source.
"Why do you have so much fabric here?"
Pei Yu pulled her in and said, "You are talking about these. These are what I have collected during my time here. I will slowly send people to the capital, and then select some and send them to Suzhou for you."
"Is this all prepared for me?"
"Well, there are some clothes here. Come and take a look. If you like any of them, you can pick some to take back."
It is undeniable that Shen Li was very happy at this moment. She was not short of money and she could buy these things, but the gift from Pei Yu had a different meaning.
Especially in this warehouse, there are everything from cloth and clothes to jewelry and rouge, and even a lot of beautiful toys, such as lanterns and fans.
These things cannot be collected in a short time. It takes time to collect them slowly. The things in this warehouse fully prove that in Pei Yu's heart, Shen Li is very important.
This also indirectly proves that Pei Yu loves her very much, otherwise, with his current position and being so busy, he would not have the time to collect these things.
Only if a person cares about her, he will be so attentive, not caring about money, just to make her happy, and that is enough.
"Ali, I asked several masters for their opinions on these jewels. They said that girls of your age would like them. Come and take a look."
As he spoke, he opened the three jewelry boxes in front of him. Inside were three different sets of jewelry, carved from white jade, as well as pearls and sapphires.
The jewelry is exquisitely carved, and every gesture seems to be natural. You can tell at first glance that it was made by a skilled craftsman.
"like."
Pei Yu saw the smile on her lips and was sure that she really liked him, and he couldn't help but feel happy.
She picked up a hairpin and inserted it into her bun, and the tassels hung down. Shen Li tilted her head, and the tassels began to sway gently. Her delicate features and extraordinary temperament made him stunned.
Shen Li chuckled and stretched out her hand in front of him, "Come back to your senses, idiot."
Pei Yu grabbed her hand and said, "Yes, Ah Li is right. I was stunned."
Shen Li took off the hairpin and carefully put it into the jewelry box. These jewelries were made of precious materials and were not cheap. They were also given by Pei Yu, so they naturally had to be carefully cared for.
"Take a look here. There are still many. Let's have them all sent back to the capital and then to the Shen family when we propose marriage. How do you think?"
"Didn't you just say you would give it to me? Is it time for us to propose marriage now?"
"I was wrong. All of these were left to Ah Li. I was collecting some at the time and sent them over when I proposed marriage."
Shen Li leaned against the pillar gently, "I'm kidding, don't send so many gifts when you propose marriage, otherwise people will think you're marrying a rich lady!"
Pei Yu raised his eyebrows and said domineeringly: "What are you afraid of? Even if Ah Li is not a rich lady, she is much better than them in my heart. When the time comes, I will give you more than this betrothal gift."
Shen Li held his hand and said, "Okay, okay, let's not be so high-profile. It's too exaggerated and will attract thieves."
Pei Yu nodded, "Then I understand. When the time comes, these things will be sent to the Shen Mansion in batches in advance and will be used as your dowry. When you get married, they will be carried into the palace together with your dowry."
There was no point in chatting that day. The man kept talking about getting married, as if she was waiting for him to marry tomorrow.
Pei Yu: Hmm? There is such a good thing?
"Okay, just take care of the things in front of you first, and we'll talk about this later."
"Okay, then it's settled."
Shen Li: "..."
Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with him. It's already been decided, isn't it? Now it's just a matter of time.
"I won't take these Dingxi with me. I'll have someone send them back when the time comes."
"As long as you like."
When the two of them came out of the warehouse, they saw the secret guards who had just been sent to take care of Mo Qing coming back.
"Your Majesty, Dr. Mo has a fever."
Pei Yu frowned, "Did you pick up the medicine he just prescribed?"
"My Lord, I have found it and it is now alive."
"Okay, I'll go take a look." He turned sideways and looked at Shen Li, "A Li, you..."
"I will go with you."
"it is good."
When the two of them arrived at Mo Qing's door hand in hand, medicine was being boiled outside. It seemed that they would have to wait for a while.
When I went in, I saw that Mo Qing was covered with four quilts, and he was curled up inside like a cocoon.
"Mo Xiaohua, come out, let me take a look."
Mo Qing stayed in the quilt for a long time before he poked his head out. "Pei Zian, I told you I didn't want to go, but you insisted that I go. Now it's over, right?"
He spoke incoherently, his teeth chattering.
Pei Yu was silent. He wanted to say to him, "Isn't it because you took off your cloak and wrapped the ginseng that you got sick?" But thinking that he was sick now, he was too lazy to argue with him.
"Okay, it's all my fault, so give me your ginseng."
When he talked about this, he became energetic, showing his whole head, "You wish!"
