Chapter 126 Meng Shaoqing Goes Crazy
Chapter 126 Meng Shaoqing gets angry
Qiao Yun thought about it and felt that she still had to rely on her uncle's family for this matter.
Before the Ming Dynasty, a woman's dowry was usually taken care of by the woman herself, which she knew. But she really had no idea how to inherit the dowry after the death of the wife.
In this situation, the only ones who can firmly stand on the united front with her are her uncle's family.
Whether they really want to help him or they are planning to get a share of the dowry, this can all be sorted out later. The top priority is not to let Mrs. Lu, a greedy old pious woman, really take Mrs. Zhen’s money to
Qiao Zaohua as dowry.
But she couldn't remember where her uncle's family lived.
Let’s ask Xianyun later.
Qiao Yun laid the kang while thinking. She patted Meng Shaoqing's face: "Wake up."
After several pats, Meng Shaoqing slowly woke up. She sat up tiredly and stretched her limbs, which were sore from sleep.
She looked around, a little confused, and asked, "Where are we?"
"Are you awake?" Xie Yutan also sat down by the kang and touched her head, "We have arrived in Quwo County. The city gate is closed now. I found a village to stay overnight. I can go home early tomorrow morning.
"
"Really? That's great!" Meng Shaoqing was simply ecstatic, "It's great, I can finally go home!"
Xie Yutan nodded and stood up: "Let's go borrow a place outside to house the horses and mules. When the food comes later, you can eat first, ah."
"Okay!" Meng Shaoqing responded crisply.
Xie Yutan and Yun Xuemei walked out of the house.
Mrs. Lu had already told Mrs. Li, Qiao Zaohua and her second son Qiao Lin about the guests coming to stay overnight, and asked them to be careful and not to offend the nobles.
Mrs. Lu, who was peeling garlic in the yard, saw the two people walking out of the house. She hurriedly stepped forward to greet them and said with a smile, "What do you want, these two distinguished guests?"
"Do you know where there is a livestock shed in the village? I need to house our mules and horses."
"Oh, my family doesn't have this. Wu Laoliu's family at the entrance of the village raises donkeys. His family has a stable. Come on, I'll take you there!"
Xie Yutan nodded: "Thank you."
Qiao Yun sighed when she heard three people outside opening the door and going out.
"What's wrong?" Meng Shaoqing couldn't help but feel a little worried when she saw Qiao Yun's frown. She carefully tugged on Qiao Yun's sleeve and said, "We can go home tomorrow, why are you still feeling sad?"
Qiao Yun bit her lip, hesitating whether to say anything.
She pulled Meng Shaoqing over and looked into her eyes seriously: "I told you what's on my mind, but you can't tell anyone else. No one else knows except my mother."
In the dark evening, the oil lamp in the room was like a bean, swaying, and the bright yellow light made Qiao Yun's eyes look particularly bright.
Meng Shaoqing's heart skipped a beat.
Come, come, sister Ayun is going to share the secret with her!
Meng Shaoqing reflexively raised her finger to swear, but Qiao Yun pressed it down with her paw.
"Little ancestor, don't swear randomly, and don't be shy about it! Just keep it in your heart."
She leaned into Meng Shaoqing's ear and told Meng Shaoqing the same story she had told Yun Xuemei before, but she concealed the fact that she had opened a Chao restaurant and passed the entire store to Yun Xuemei. She only said that she was too cold.
It was Yun Xuemei who picked her up when she was about to die from a fever.
After saying that, she lowered her eyes and tried to hide her uneasiness: "I'm afraid they will recognize me later and make a fuss. This family is all glib and it's hard to get along with anyone..."
Meng Shaoqing took a deep breath, and she felt an unknown fire burning in her small chest.
How could this be true? How could it be true?
There is such a vicious step-grandmother!
It was Sister Ayun who protected her before, but now it’s her turn to protect Sister Ayun!
She suddenly held Qiao Yun's hand and said: "Don't worry, I will be here soon. If they dare to look at you one more time, I will let them know how powerful you are! Then, isn't Aunt Yun your biological mother? Your biological mother
At home..."
"I was so burned that I was delirious. It was all thanks to my mother-in-law who paid for the doctor to give me medicine to save me..."
When the two of them were about to say something more, the sound of cooking in the yard stopped. Qiao Yun quickly covered Meng Shaoqing's mouth and quietly made a "shh" gesture. The two changed positions, and Qiao Yun sat down.
In the shadow of the light, Meng Shaoqing sat outside to block it.
Sure enough, someone knocked on the door soon.
"Ladies, dinner is ready."
Meng Shaoqing cleared her throat, took out the pretense of being the daughter-in-law of the county magistrate's palace, and said: "Send it in."
With a creak, the door opened. It was Li and Qiao Zaohua who brought the rice in with bowls.
Mrs. Li was carrying a large pot of stir-fried vegetables. She placed the vegetables on the Kang table and stepped back carefully. Qiao Zaohua followed and put the rattan basket containing the staple food on the table, but she did not leave.
He looked around the two people with a stern look.
My God, the materials these two people are wearing are so good!
She originally thought that the set of plain silk that her third sister-in-law brought back during the Chinese New Year was already of the highest quality, but compared with the materials they were wearing, it had to be thrown away.
Meng Shaoqing saw that the greed in her eyes could hardly be concealed. It was very ugly, so she couldn't help but said in a cold voice: "Please step back."
Qiao Zaohua was so shocked that she came back to her senses, but she still couldn't bear to leave, so she asked, "Huh? Where are the two distinguished guests?"
"They went to tie the horses."
Qiao Zaohua was a little unwilling.
Her mother had told her that if she had taken good care of the lady in gold and silver, she would definitely receive the reward. The lady had two and a half-year-old children with her, so Mrs. Lu specially asked her thirteen or fourteen-year-old daughter to go to the palace.
Cai, just to get in the way of understanding Yutan, if she just says a nice word or two, won't the reward come?
Who knew they were not here!
Her eyes wandered to their hair again.
The bandit didn't take any of their belongings before, so the jewelry on their heads was still complete. Although their buns were a little messy, they could still see the shining golden hairpins.
What wonderful jewelry!
If these gold jewelry can be worn on her head, how beautiful she will be when she gets married!
With so many bright and beautiful furniture as a dowry, she will definitely be able to marry into a wealthy family and become a young mistress!
Wait a moment……
Why does that person inside look so familiar?
"Bang!"
Meng Shaoqing slammed the table and shouted: "Are you brave? You don't want your eyes anymore?"
"Don't dare, I just think that the little lady behind you looks familiar. She looks a bit like our eldest niece." Qiao Zaohua quickly bowed to apologize, but her eyes were still fixed on Qiao Zaohua.
Qiao Yun felt uncomfortable staring at Yun's face, so she had to turn her body sideways again.
Meng Shaoqing moved her body and stood in front of Qiao Yun, feeling very angry.
Wow, Sister Ayun really guessed it right. The people in this family are very evil!
Meng Shaoqing said sternly: "How presumptuous! You have let lard blind you. What noble people we are. The big landowners in Quwo County have to grovel to us in every possible way. You idiots like me are not worthy of my sister."
Are you on the same level? If you continue to be so frivolous and talk nonsense, I will cut off your tongue and throw it out to the dogs!"
Her voice has not completely changed yet, her voice still retains a bit of the sharpness of a child, and her voice itself is extremely delicate. When she roars so loudly, she perfectly interprets the appearance of an arrogant, arrogant and unreasonable noble lady!
Qiao Zaohua had never seen such a posture before. She was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground and ran away...
