After traveling through time, I thrived in ancient times

Chapter 6 Nothing wrong!



Chapter 6 Nothing wrong!

The next morning, Yu Tingwan was awakened while she was sleeping by Lan Yue, who said that housekeeper Chen had brought people over.

Yu Tingwan, who hadn't gotten up so early for a long time, was quite impatient. Which nice person would come to the door so early in the morning?

Butler Chen?

Yu Tingwan, who was in a daze, suddenly woke up. After seeing the person in front of her clearly, she really reacted. Oh, she was dead. She traveled through time again. She is now the eldest daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, Yu Tingwan, the princess of the King Chen of the Dasheng Dynasty!

"Let Butler Chen wait for a moment."

"Yes, ma'am."

After Lan Yue left, Yu Tingwan quickly got up. Lan Yue had already given her the clothes she needed to change last night.

Just as Yu Tingwan put on her clothes, she saw Lan Yue coming back with several maids.

She looked at Lan Yue in confusion. What was this?

Without waiting for Lan Yue to reply, several maids from the palace who were walking behind stepped forward and saluted.

"I am Jingmei, your servant, and I am here to serve the young lady on the orders of the prince."

"Your servant Qingzhu greets Miss Yu."

"Your servant Zisu greets Miss Yu."

As expected of maids trained in the palace, from the time they entered the room till now, their every move was flawless, and even their line of sight did not fluctuate at all.

"Get up."

Without waiting for Yu Tingwan to ask, Jingmei stood up, bowed to Yu Tingwan, and reported:

"Miss, these are your daily clothes. I'll bring them to you. Butler Chen is outside and is having someone bring your dowry over."

Yu Tingwan glanced at the box next to them, and thought that it was the maids named Qingzhu and Zisu who carried it in just now, so she thought that these two people must have some martial arts skills.

"You guys clean up, Lan Yue will do my makeup for me."

"Yes, ma'am."

Yu Tingwan sat down and looked at herself in the mirror. She discovered last night that not only did her original body have the same name as her, but her appearance was also 80% similar to her modern self.

The remaining two points are that although the original owner was not favored, she grew up to have a figure as weak as a willow in the wind, with a slender figure, completely different from the modern her who can go into the jungle alone.

Lan Yue was deft in her hands. She held Yu Tingwan's beautiful hair in her hands and used her nimble fingers to tie it into a cross bun. The rest of the long hair fell behind her. She then took out a pair of magnolia pearl hairpins from her dressing table and put them on.

Yu Tingwan stood up. Her moon-like eyebrows, star-like eyes and red lips made her look more beautiful. She was wearing a light blue knitted white water skirt with a moon-white silver silk gauze dress on the outside.

The simple dress makes her look elegant and graceful. The sharpness between her eyebrows reduces the graceful beauty a lot, and gives off a hint of coolness and transcendence.

"Miss, this outfit is really beautiful. I wanted you to wear it before, but you refused. If you were willing to dress up before, who knows who would have the title of the most beautiful woman in the capital!"

Lan Yue admired the beauty of her young lady, and thought that it was such a waste of talent that such a beautiful young lady refused to dress up.

Listening to Lan Yue's regretful tone, Yu Tingwan's eyes moved slightly, and he said nonchalantly: "Why are you dressing up? After you dress up, are you waiting for my second sister to target me, or waiting for my so-called father to sell me as a commodity?"

Jingmei and the others watched their faces with their eyes and their noses with their noses. After packing their clothes, they stood there without moving. When they heard this, they did not react at all.

Yu Tingwan glanced at them, didn't care, and turned to walk outside.

When she arrived at the main hall outside, Yu Tingwan saw a few boxes on the ground. Butler Chen was standing in the hall. When he saw her coming, he bowed slightly and said, "Miss Yu."

Yu Tingwan nodded and greeted, "Manager Chen."

Then he walked to the couch beside him and sat down, "Is this my dowry?"

Butler Chen didn't expect that Miss Yu would be such a person. She was very straightforward, which surprised Butler Chen, who was used to all kinds of roundabout conversations.

"Ms. Yu, this is your dowry list, please take a look."

A booklet was handed to her. Lan Yue took it and saw Yu Tingwan looking at the booklet. Manager Chen continued to talk about the purpose of his visit.

"Miss Yu, you have met those maids. They are familiar with the palace. You can ask them to do anything."

"Also, the prince has ordered some guards to come and patrol outside the courtyard. Miss Yu can rest assured in all aspects."

After reading the booklet in her hand, Yu Tingwan nodded to Butler Chen, indicating that she understood, and then looked at the boxes with interest.

"Lan Yue, the rest of you open these boxes for me."

Several maids were stunned, and even Butler Chen was a little stunned, frowning slightly. What was she doing? Was she suspecting that someone in the palace had touched her dowry?

Lan Yue didn't understand what her young lady was going to do, but she was always obedient and went forward to open one of the boxes.

Jingmei and the others looked at each other, then hurried forward to open the other boxes.

There were only seven or eight boxes on the ground, and they didn't take up much space after they were all opened. But no one could figure out what this young lady was going to do, and the scene fell silent for a moment.

Yu Tingwan looked up at the things in the boxes, raised his eyebrows slightly, subconsciously stroked the bracelet on his wrist with one hand, and snorted.

"Butler Chen, please give me a copy of the betrothal gift list from the palace."

As soon as these words were spoken, Butler Chen immediately understood what was going on. He did not shirk his responsibility and turned around to tell Qingzhu to get it.

Qingzhu was quick and took the thing over in no time and placed it next to Yu Tingwan.

Yu Tingwan opened the book and flipped through a few pages. She paused slightly and then closed the book and put it aside. She took the tea on the table and took a sip, pursing her red lips slightly.

He lowered his eyes to look at the tea leaves floating in the cup, pondered for a moment, reached out and placed the tea on the table, making a crisp sound, and the scene was silent for a moment.

Although she didn't say anything, everyone felt the solemn atmosphere at the moment.

Seeing that she remained silent, Butler Chen had no choice but to speak himself.

"Miss Yu, what's wrong?"

Yu Tingwan looked up at him, then lowered her head again.

This housekeeper Chen is really interesting. He is obviously trying to pass on a message to me. Come to think of it, the Shangshu Mansion is too greedy. Do they really think they can do whatever they want just because Prince Chen is seriously injured?

Not only did she marry her off as a substitute, but she also embezzled all the betrothal gifts from the palace, and only prepared so little for the original owner. Even the merchants in Beijing who had some money could marry their daughters off better than this!

It goes without saying that this must have been done by the mother and daughter!

"There's nothing wrong with a betrothal gift."

No one at the scene dared to respond to Yu Tingwan's words.

Doesn't this mean that there is something wrong with the dowry?

It was Lan Yue who spoke first. She was a maid who came from the Shangshu Mansion as a dowry, so naturally she knew a lot about what happened before getting married.

"Miss, the dowry was... arranged by the concubine."

Seeing Yu Tingwan looked up at her, he motioned for her to continue.

Lan Yue was a little confused about what her young lady meant.

When a woman gets married, the amount of her dowry represents how much her family values ​​her, and also represents the status she will have in her husband's family in the future.

In the current situation, if we make the matter public, wouldn't it be telling everyone in the palace that our young lady is not favored?
