In the blink of an eye, Mingyun and Ran Wan set off to leave the capital, and Chang Zhong, who had gone to see off his elder nephew, came back and told his mother, "Mom, Eldest Sister took a lot of stuff back to her hometown, as many as five horse-drawn carriages."
Zhulan did some calculations and said, "Fabrics and some larger display items take up more space, so it seems like a lot. The truly valuable things aren't that many; just a few boxes would be enough to hold them."
Chang Zhong, eating grapes, agreed. He thought the grapes from his own family tasted better than those sold outside. After swallowing the grape skins, he said, "These days, Sister's husband has sold quite a few paintings. Sister's husband's family slowly started their business relying on Sister's dowry, but now Sister's husband has made a name for himself. Mom, the highest price for one of Sister's husband's paintings went over a hundred silver taels."
