A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Su Yihui left Bishui Pavilion with a breath held, and went directly to Xuexiangyuan where Aunt Xue lived.

"Auntie, how much dowry will I have when I get married?" Su Yihui asked impatiently as soon as she entered the door.

Aunt Xue thought for a while and said: "The dowry for the legitimate daughter in the mansion is twenty thousand taels, and the dowry for the concubine is ten thousand taels. According to this amount."

"Madam has gone to raise a baby. I will tell the Marquis that your dowry will be purchased by my aunt herself and she will choose it carefully for you."

But Su Yihui said: "It's only ten thousand taels of silver, what can I buy? Auntie, talk to your father and tell me if you can give me more, so that I can have the confidence to marry into the Xu family."

"The eldest mistress of the Xu family is the legitimate daughter of Prince Duan's palace. I heard that she was married into the Xu family with a dowry of ten miles of gold. I have to be bullied to death by my sister-in-law for my dowry of ten thousand taels of silver."

Aunt Xue looked a little solemn when she heard this. It was all because of her poor background. If she had a good background, would her daughter still be worried about not having a dowry?

Although this is the rule in the Su family, what my daughter said makes sense. After all, the Xu family was the family of the top aristocrats of the day, so it would make sense for their daughter to have a larger dowry, and it might also be helpful to the Marquis' career in the future.

Thinking of this, Aunt Xue felt confident again. Whatever happened to the concubine, as long as she married well, her family would have to look up to her daughter.

"Yi Hui, my aunt will tell your father about this. No matter what, I can't let you get married in a miserable state."

Seeing Aunt Xue's vows, Su Yihui felt more at ease, thinking that she would have to put on a decent front when the time came.

The Su family arranged marriages for three daughters in a row, two of which were scandals, and the other was to a dead person. Therefore, these days, everyone in the Su family has been very low-key, even Su Chengye rarely drinks outside, and goes straight back home after court.

Su Qingyu checked the account books of each hospital for several days in a row, but she didn't notice anyone, and she didn't even ask any questions. The housekeepers and ladies-in-law who had been worrying about it before all breathed a sigh of relief and secretly wondered whether the eldest lady couldn't read the account books at all.

That morning, Su Qingyu was packing the clothes to be sent to Zhuangzi for Lin. Jade came in and reported, "Miss, Mrs. Zhao of the Duke of Wei is here. She said she is discussing the details of the marriage for the Shen family."

Mrs. Zhao is Mrs. Shen's biological sister. The Shen family is still mourning, so it is reasonable to ask her to come here.

"I remember Mrs. Zhao is also a vegetarian. Go to grandma's kitchen and have a look. If there is anything missing, let me know."

After Jade left, Su Qingyu told Manaou, "Go and pick out some plain and elegant clothes for me."

She guessed that her grandmother would ask her to greet Mrs. Zhao, so she had to prepare the necessary clothes in advance to avoid being rude.

As soon as Su Qingyu changed her clothes, Jade hurried in.

"Miss, something happened. The two cooks in the old lady's small kitchen had diarrhea together. Should we go out and find a vegetarian chef?"

It's not that the chef in the kitchen can't cook it, it's just that it's not that exquisite. Normally it would be fine, but there are guests here today, and if the dishes are disrespectful, Su Qingyu, the lady in charge of the house, is also to blame.

Su Qingyu raised her eyebrows slightly, her cold face darkened, "I'll go take a look."

She didn't believe it was such a coincidence that when Mrs. Zhao entered the house, the cook had diarrhea. If someone had bad intentions, it would be useless to bring in eight more cooks.

Su Qingyu quietly entered the small kitchen in the backyard through the small door of Songhe Hall. The small kitchen was already in a mess. Several old women who were usually responsible for washing and cutting vegetables were sitting there doing nothing, not knowing what to do.

Seeing Su Qingyu come in, they seemed to have a backbone, "The eldest lady is here, what should we do?"

Su Qingyu glanced at a few people, then looked around, then gently rolled up her sleeves, "You all go out."

Mrs. Wang, who was standing aside, rolled her eyes, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss, it's better to invite a vegetarian cook, otherwise we can't afford to delay the old lady's lunch."

Su Qingyu looked at Mrs. Wang coldly and said, "I will do it. You all can go out. Pearl and I will do it."

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang persuaded with a flattering smile: "Miss, you want to cook it yourself? Why don't we leave the dishes to be washed and served, otherwise I'm afraid that Miss..."

Su Qingyu interrupted Wang Pozi directly and said, "Go out. I will take full responsibility for delaying Grandmother's lunch."

Mrs. Wang and the other three ladies looked at each other a few times. They all had smiles on their faces as they walked away, muttering, "It's not that we won't help. Don't blame us if something happens." us."

Pearl was indignant, "Miss, these people are going too far. You can't be so arrogant when serving the old lady, right?"

Su Qingyu snorted, and then said: "Ignore them for now, let's take care of lunch first."

Pearl panicked when she heard this, "Miss, I can only cook a midnight snack and porridge, and make vegetarian dishes for the old lady. I can't do that."

Su Qingyu rolled her eyes and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't do it, I can."

In her previous life, Old Madam Shen had always taken good care of her. Later, when the old madam was seriously ill, she served her for a while and also learned how to cook vegetarian dishes.

Su Qingyu first checked the dishes in the kitchen and thought about what to cook. Under her command, Pearl also started washing and chopping vegetables.

"Miss, when did you learn to cook? You're really good at it. The flowers you make are really pretty."

Pearl looked at the flowers surrounded by radishes on the plate, and her mood instantly relaxed.

Just listen to Su Qingyu say: "Don't laugh in a hurry, you first find a way to get some vegetarian oil, these oils are mixed with meat oil."
