Chương 57: Dowry

The day before, Su Jiu's head was covered with a veil as she walked from the front courtyard to the back courtyard. On this day, as she passed through corridors and over bridges, she finally saw the magnitude of Ji Manor. Su Jiu blew a raspberry.

"I heard that the courtyards of Ji Manor took ten years to build. The design is detailed and intricate, and the cost was not considered at all. Luxurious, indeed!" Nanny explained to Su Jiu.

The Second Mistress cared only for educating her son and avoided overseeing menial tasks. Her quarters were closer to the back of Ji Manor.
