As Yan Zixin listened, she was both surprised and happy.

If youngest daughter from the Marquis's Mansion Clan was willing to marry into their clan, their entire clan would not need to depend on others.

With such a deep sense of righteousness, Yan Zixin couldn't help but think that this new madam might be someone easy to get along with. She hurriedly praised with a smile, "Madam is always considerate towards Master, it's the Gu family's fortune."

Matron Lady listened to the praises made towards her young mistress and looked calm. She only smiled and said, "This is the dowry list that Marquis's Wife prepared personally. She intends to deliver a portion of it to us tomorrow. He wondered if the Gu family had chosen the date of their appointment. If not, Marquis's Wife happens to have some relationship with the host of State Protecting Temple, so it would be fine for you to take the lead and count the auspicious days. "

The host of State Protecting Temple had only ever been given to the imperial family to measure their strength, and occasionally, they would even help out.

The fact that Marquis's Wife was able to get him to help showed that she had an extraordinary status and clearly valued new madam very highly. Even if she were to marry again, Marquis's Wife would never let her daughter down.

Yan Zixin's face stiffened. She was afraid that Master Gu wasn't going to marry a new wife, but a great Buddha. When he returned, he would need the whole family to support him.

She already knew that Gu Xuanyi had inherited Master Gu's good leather bag, and she was already surprised to see Gu Xuanyi in person when they were talking about marriage.

Yan Zixin, on the other hand, did not expect to see Master Gu the first time she laid eyes on him the day after the marriage ceremony.

Gu Xuanyi didn't look like a father and son as he stood beside Master Gu. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them brothers.

Master Gu didn't know how to take care of himself either. He looked like a handsome man in his twenties.

At that time, she knew that Master Gu's skin would definitely attract bees and butterflies.

However, he hadn't expected that this draw would lead to such a background.

Yan Zixin respectfully received the list. She understood Marquis Stability's intention was that even if this new madam were to be married off and remarried, she would still have a good look at it on the surface.

With just a single sweep, she immediately froze.

When Gu's Mansion is hired, you can send it back. Yan Zixin knew there would be a lot of bribes, but she was also shocked.

Jewelry, jade, silken, porcelain, there were dozens of boxes. This was only a part of it. If it were all of it, how much would it actually cost?

Marquis Stability had accumulated quite a bit of wealth for three whole generations, but he never thought that his daughter, who he remarried, would receive such a generous dowry.

Yan Zixin's eyes stared straight at him. Marquis Stability's youngest daughter had such a rich and imposing air, yet she married Marquis Stability's youngest daughter again. It seemed like this would be another grand occasion in the capital city.

She calmed her thoughts with great difficulty and replied softly, "I will make a copy of this list and personally hand it to Master."

Matron Lady smiled and nodded. Although this young mistress of the Gu family seemed somewhat petty, she was also someone who knew her place. If Miss were to marry into this family, no one who didn't know their place would get in the way.

The Gu family was very simple. Master Gu had one son and two daughters on his knees. He only had two beautiful women by his side, maidservant, who didn't even have a concubine.

When the young mistress marries into the clan, there won't be anyone who can make her unhappy.

Matron Lady probed a bit before happily returning.

Yan Zixin personally copied the list and sent it to Master Gu's study.

Master Gu only took a glance before putting it down. Yan Zixin saw that Gu Xuanyi was also in the study room and frowned. She knew that the father and son pair were unhappy, so she tactfully left without disturbing them.

Gu Xuanyi waited until the door was closed before he opened his mouth and said, "Father insisted. I never thought that Yan would be unhappy."

Master Gu raised his eyebrows and said, "If Yan wants to get married, she has to have an elder who comes from a good family."
