"Sister has us on her mind," Ye Gui said with a sob, picking up the exquisite jewelry, unable to contain the sourness in her heart. Even her own father hadn't mentioned that the second daughter was getting married, eagerly sending these over.
But... in the beginning, he had left a sum of silver as her dowry.
Now, it turned out to be a few pieces of jewelry from her sister-in-law's dowry. Fortunately, there were also the jewels left by her biological mother before her departure. Now, with her sister's contribution, the dowry could actually be considered quite generous.
Yet, her heart felt as if it was pierced by the wind, aching with a chilly pain.
In the evening, mother and daughter spoke in their room.
"You're about to leave for your husband's home, and Maternal Aunt Su has some fine pieces of jewelry that will be added to your dowry," Maternal Aunt Su used to truly believe she would only have this one child in her life.
Hence her affection for Ye Gui ran deep to the bone.
