In this world, there is no "betrothal gift" familiar to outsiders, but there is a "dowry". That is to say, when a woman from an aristocratic family gets married, the family will give a large sum of money as a dowry. It could be jewellery, it could be a deed to a house, it could even be a large estate.

Especially for the big nobles with head and face, the dowry items when the women of the family get married show the strength and face of the family.

This is not the first time that Larousse III has married a daughter, so the dowries of princesses of the generation of the Cavendish family have long been established by convention.

Xia De asked Dorothy curiously, and Dorothy pointed her finger up:

"First, a large piece of land, but not around Tobesk, the land here is too expensive. Then there are two or three manors of the royal family all over the country. Rezia said that sister Mona wanted the manor in the Extreme North Ice City. The fact that Lakeview Manor was bought by the Asperger family is also related to this. There is also property, the king has prepared a long-term profitable property for his daughter, theoretically speaking, this only belongs to Mona, but after marriage, the family I can't control it anymore."

The property she spoke of was something that most people in this world would never be able to obtain in their lifetime.

"The Cavendish family doesn't have a tradition of dowry in cash, but the family has a lot of jewellery, which has been accumulated from generation to generation. Mona picked up a sapphire tiara from her grandmother, who wore it when she got married. No. Adelina said privately that she had liked the tiara very much. Besides the jewels, there were some antiques, which Rezia didn't specify, but would probably fill three carriages. Oh, mother, I mean Queen Diana will also give you some jewelry. For example, the ruby ​​ring she gave you, if you don't give it to you in summer, there is a high probability that Mona will take it away this time."

Xia De couldn't figure out how much these things were worth in gold pounds. Even if it was calculated with a larger denomination of "Mia", it would probably be able to fill the entire No. 6 of Plaza de Saint Teresa with Mia.

"Meow?"

The cat walking around on the floor gave Shad a curious look.

"How did Her Royal Highness Mona Cavendish and the gentleman from the Asperger family meet?"

He inquired curiously again, this kind of topic is always very interesting:

"Or, is this a political marriage?"

"Both."

Dorothy was holding the teacup, and the hot air made her feel very comfortable:

"Mona and the little Mr. Asperger met at an open-air dance in the summer three years ago, and then slowly began to write letters to each other every week. After His Majesty the King heard about this incident, he thought that the royal family and Mr. Asperger It is a good thing for the Duke of Sberg to get married, so he acquiesced in this exchange. They got engaged this spring, and the wedding has been in preparation since then. A specialty of the Arctic ice cap."

"Sounds good."

Shad praised:

"This is a marriage that can be blessed by God."

"Yes."

Dorothy's eyes fell on Mia's tail, which was walking on the floor. The soft and flexible tail was dangling like a huge orange-white two-color worm:

"Agelina is very envious of her elder sister. Of course, what she envies even more is... these three rings, aren't they all relics?"

"Huh? What? Oh, yes, relics."

Xia De waved at the cat, and Mia rushed over, jumping neatly from the ground onto the sofa. Xia De smiled and reached out to touch Mia's little head. The cat squinted its eyes and yelled in cooperation.

The blonde girl said helplessly:

"I know you are good to your cat, but sometimes you have to remember that it is just an ordinary cat. Even normal people cannot wear three relic rings at the same time, Shade, you are good to Mia Over the top."

Because they were going to church to attend a grand wedding in the afternoon, they went out for lunch at eleven o'clock. But as soon as she reached the Silver Cross Avenue, Dorothy suddenly froze for a moment, and then said to Shad:

"Wait a mininute."

Saying that, he closed his eyes, and leaned against Xia De's body. But it was only a few seconds, and without even arousing the curiosity of the passers-by, Dorothy opened her eyes again.

"Meow~"

The cat on Shade's shoulder immediately barked, and "Dorothy" looked at the cat reproachfully:

"Its acuity surprises me every time."

"Rezia?"

Xia De was even more surprised, and glanced at the Yodel Palace a few hundred meters away:

"How did you come?"

"There's so much to do, and I'm really tired. Let Dorothy do it for me, at least for lunchtime, when I want to rest."

She showed a sense of laziness at the moment, but soon a smile appeared on her face again. When he and Xia De walked towards the restaurant where the seat had been reserved, their footsteps seemed much brisker:

"It feels so good to be free to walk down the street without having to think about what to do next. Shade, do you know what time I woke up this morning? I've never felt so long in the morning , and now thinking about Mona's wedding dress... oh my god, it's a good thing Adelina can help me."

"But since it's already this time and the preparations for the wedding are over, what else are you busy with?"

Xia De asked again, feeling that Rezia had exchanged with Dorothy as if she was "running away".

"Lunch, Mona Cavendish's last lunch at the Yodel Palace. After this afternoon, there will be no more Mona Cavendish, only Mona Asperger."

Having said that, she slightly turned her head to look in the direction of the Yodel Palace, and after a pause in her footsteps, she followed Xia De who turned to look at her:

"We need to hurry up. I don't want to miss the wedding in the afternoon."

The topic of marriage is always so heavy, but Xia De also wishes the newlyweds who are about to get married very much. At noon in this early winter, when he walked into the restaurant with the blonde girl, Shad, like Rezia just now, turned his head to look at the Yodel Palace again.

"Maybe in a few years, or many years later, I will also welcome Rezia who walks out of here."

[But it's more likely that Rezia Cavendish is there to greet you. 】

After lunch, the two quickly returned to Place Saint-Andrés with the cat. It took Xia De a change of clothes and a haircut, and it took only twenty minutes in total, but Rezia was much more troublesome.

But according to her, Dorothy's gown was more fussy than her bridesmaids' dresses. She took pleasure in arranging her clothes, and asked Xia De to help check whether the lace edge of the skirt was scratched or damaged during transportation.

And because he was going to take Mia to the wedding, Xia De prepared a blue bow for the cat.

It's a pity that the cat, who has always been very docile, didn't cooperate at all this time. In the end, Xia De had no choice but to give up, but he still combed its hair with Mia's special comb, then sat on the sofa and waited for Rezia to finish her makeup.

After Rezia finally looked in the mirror in the bathroom and confirmed that Dorothy's long golden hair was completely smooth, she tied the hair together with a blue ribbon, and then took Shade's arm, Stepping on high heels, she walked down the stairs with him.

Many guests were invited to the grand banquet held at the Lake View Manor tonight, but only a small number of guests were invited to the afternoon wedding, because the church auditorium can only seat a limited number of people at one time.

Xia De's invitation was given by Queen Diana. The queen had a good impression of Xia De, and she also intended to contact the only "lover" of the Duchess Galina to maintain the relationship between the king and Miss Galina. Dorothy, a commoner girl, is unlikely to be invited to the princess's wedding even if she is a well-known author who has recently gained fame. She will appear as Shade's female companion.

Because "Hamilton's Detective Stories" comes from her pen, people know that the writer and the detective have a good relationship, and it is appropriate for her to be a female companion.

The Peace Church in Tobesk Diocese is located in the east of the city. When Shade first came to this world, if it wasn't for "Ms. La Soya", he almost went to the church to receive relief food.

The specific location of the church is located on St. Isso Avenue, which is the main street in the eastern part of the city. The length of the street is about two miles (about 3.2km), and the width is enough to accommodate five or six carriages at the same time. Black wrought iron fences are erected at both ends of the street, as the beginning and end of the street, and the street ground is a piece of small gray ashlar.

The legendary "St. Isop" is a saint who lived in the Church of Peace thousands of years ago. It is said that through her own lobbying, that lady contributed to the establishment of the first human unified empire in the sixth era of the Old Continent, and made peace last for many years. This street was named in memory of her.

The carriage soon brought Xia De and Leiziya here. When Xia De walked down holding Leiziya's hand wearing a white long-sleeved glove, he suddenly realized a problem:

"Are you and Dorothy going back again this afternoon?"

Rezia subconsciously raised her hand and touched her ear, then shook the red butterfly pendant hanging on her waist to Xia De:

"Maybe it will change ~lightnovelpub.net~ Maybe it won't change. Shade, how many times can you tell?"

"Meow~"

Xia De immediately raised his hand to touch the cat, and Mia barked in the afternoon sun energetically.

The central heating of Tobesk's steam pipes is about to start. Due to the burning of coal, the smog in the city has been very heavy in the past few days. Even in the afternoon, the streets are still foggy and extremely choking.

At the foot of the front steps of the magnificent church, the blonde girl smiled:

"How nice it would be if every day could be this peaceful."

"Yes, someday."

Xia De said softly, and climbed up the steps with the believers of the Peace Church. Although weddings are held in the auditorium, the church remains open to ordinary worshipers.
