Wow! That gemstone is so big!

"I'm rich, I'm really rich!"

"This is chiffon fabric! I want to make a skirt when summer comes, so pretty!"

"Gold bracelets, there are so many gold bracelets in this box!"

The lord smiled as he followed the stout girl, listening to her incessant exclamations of surprise and delight, couldn't help but laugh along.

Luckily, he hurried and finished preparing all these things, otherwise it would be difficult to please the little girl now.

Thinking back then, the first time he stayed at Li's house, he was seriously ill and near death. This little girl couldn't even speak yet, but she already knew how to trade pills with one hand and silver coins with the other!

The little chubby kid, clutching the silver with drool in his mouth, was the funniest and warmest scene he could remember.

As if he had parted the dark clouds of his life, illuminating his world.

His first half of life was cold and difficult, but after meeting the Li family, after meeting this chubby girl, all his hardships, all his scars, were gradually smoothed over in the warm atmosphere...

The father and daughter brought four leg of lamb, took a carriage back to Suijin Beach when the Li family had already lit the lamps.

Winter dusk always came early, but today it seemed even darker, as if snow was about to fall.

On the table in the main hall, there was a box measuring two feet square. The spoils of war allocated to Li Lao Si were inside.

As soon as the Lord stepped onto the platform, he heard Li Lao Si's booming voice: "This bracelet is studded with gemstones, keep it for Fu Niu'er's dowry. And this pearl necklace is also beautiful, keep it for Fu Niu'er too!"

The Lord and Jiayin smiled at each other.

Jiayin, like a little butterfly, ran into the room with her skirt in hand. She hugged her father's waist and coquettishly cried out, "Father, do you dislike Funiuer Wow wow, Funiuer is so heartbroken! Father wants to marry Funiuer off so early!"

Although Li Laosi is honest and down-to-earth, he's all too familiar with his daughter's schemes.

At this moment, he picked up his daughter and laughed heartily as he spun around the room a few times, causing his daughter to giggle with delight until he finally stopped.

Tao Hongying grumbled, afraid her husband would drop their daughter, so she snatched the child from his arms and held her close, saying, “Your father, that blockhead, is rarely this thoughtful and farsighted. He even remembers to save money for your dowry.”

"Look quickly, keep whatever you like, and the rest will be saved for your grandma!"

Jia Yin said, "My godfather also prepared a lot for me. Father brought these back, Mother and Grandmother can pick some. The rest will be left for the brothers to marry wives later!"

Before Tao Hongying could speak, Li Lao Tai had already waved her hand. “Your brothers are getting married, of course the family will help them prepare, but these were earned by your father during his campaigns, so they should belong to you.”

When Jia Yin couldn't push the large box out, she stepped on a stool and sat beside it to pick through its contents.

"Alright then, let the brothers worry about finding wives for themselves. I'll take care of making Grandma and Mother look beautiful."

Jia Yin giggled and lay on top of the box, her chubby little hands skillfully picking through the items.

However, soon she gave her grandmother a brocade screen, a set of cat's eye stone headdresses, a pair of jade-headed gold hairpins with the character "壽" (longevity), and a pair of plain red gold bangles.

Tao Hongying was also given a set of gold and jade headdresses, a pair of red gold bangles with twisted silk threads, and a small embroidered peony flower screen.

Wen Juan, on the other hand, wore a pair of jade translucent carvings of orchids as hairpins and a pair of small white jade pendants shaped like lucky knots.

There is also a pair of long hairpins with auspicious cloud patterns, which are for the third aunt who is away from home.

Even, Jiayin picked out a pair of red coral hairpin inlaid with gemstones to give as a betrothal gift to Xing Wan'er from her grandmother.

Xing Wan'er served her mother at the Wen family for half a month. She was filial, gentle, and generous in her actions. The Li family saw this and were extremely satisfied.

Just wait for Jiaren to come back, and this marriage can be settled.

Even Li Laotai and Tao Hongying had given up. They understood best how generous the plump girl was, making sure everyone in the family got a share of everything; otherwise, she wouldn't feel at ease.

Seeing that there was still half the things left in the box, they no longer refused.

It was Wenjuan who was quite apprehensive. If her father-in-law got spoils of war and gave some to her as his daughter-in-law, it would be understandable.

But now that the uncle living next door is preparing a dowry for his niece, even this sister-in-law of hers is trying to take advantage of the situation. This just won't do.

She wanted to return the things, but Li Laotai pushed all of Zhao Yuru's share over and said, "Your sister gave this to you, just keep it. You help put away your mother-in-law's thing too, and when she comes back for New Year, give them both to her at once."

"If you feel like you're taking advantage of your sister, just remember that when she gets married or needs support in the future, you can all lend a hand."

Wenjuan just accepted it, her heart filled with ten thousand feelings of joy and gratitude.

Such a good family and such a nice sister-in-law are hard to find even with a lantern!

When she went back to her parents' home for the second year of junior high, she dressed up to show off to her relatives.

Without saying Wenjuan's thoughts, let alone Li Lao Tai recalling her granddaughter entering the palace, she inquired carefully.

Jia Yin was afraid that her family would get angry, so she lightly said: "The Third Princess is envious of my shop's good business and wants to take it over."

I told Imperial Uncle to let the Third Princess open a branch, selling snacks from my shop later on.

"Both the pastry shop and the recipes have nothing to do with her. She only takes some snacks, sells them to make money, and loses money if they don't sell."

Li Laotai turned black with rage after hearing this and muttered angrily, "This shameless thing! Even though it bullied you last time, it wants to snatch your stall again this time!"

"Could she really be the Emperor's daughter With eyes so shallow, she isn't even as good as the girls in our village!"

Tao Hongying also said, "I told you, suddenly inviting Fu Niuer into the palace definitely wasn't for good!"

Jia Yin quickly hugged her grandmother's arm and said with a smile, "Grandma, Emperor Huang also knows that the Third Princess is wrong, so he gave me a lot of good things."

"If I sold it, I could get five or six hundred taels at least, enough to buy a small shop. So, I haven't suffered any losses either."

"If the Third Princess is willing to go through all this trouble, so be it. Even if she loses money, Uncle Emperor will think she's foolish."

"Hmph!" Old Lady Li coldly snorted. She treated her granddaughter like a pearl, not allowing her to suffer any losses, even the slightest one.

She had originally thought the Emperor was quite alright, but now she was beginning to resent him. Lowering her voice, she said, "If he truly believed his daughter was in the wrong, he wouldn't have summoned you into the palace..."

"Alright, Grandma, it's just a small thing, nothing to mention." Jiayin hugged her grandma's neck and acted coquettishly.

"The granddaughter of the old woman is so smart, it's not easy to outsmart a silly girl, we just won't stoop to her level!

"

"From now on, if she behaves herself, I won't mind giving her a share of the benefits. Just to please Uncle Huang."

"If she dares to cause trouble, I'll show her the hardships of life!"

Having said that, she also clenched her fist and waved it around, looking like a little bully, which made everyone in the house laugh. There will be plenty of free time in the future for us to chat!”"You guys scared everyone away! Just wait until my fourth older brother gets back, he'll make you pay!"Everyone burst into laughter and...
