Chapter 25 The First Counterattack
Chapter 25 The first counterattack
"Aunt Tang, what are you doing here?"
When Mrs. Chen saw the person coming, her face instantly turned cold.
Yu Yunxi turned around and glanced at the other person. He looked nearly thirty years old, and even the thick rouge could not hide the fatigue on his face.
She recognized this person, Aunt Tang.
When she left the Yu Mansion, Aunt Tang had just entered the family. She was beautiful and enchanting, and was very favored. She was a thorn in Chen's side.
However, according to Qianjiao's investigation, after she aborted a child three years ago, she became infertile, and her mind was occasionally a little crazy, so she was left out in the cold over time.
"Aunt Tang, if you don't stay in your own yard, what are you doing here?" Mrs. Zhou also started to scold her.
Aunt Tang didn't seem to hear what they said, she walked straight towards Yu Yunxi.
"Miss, this is the jade bracelet in your mother's trousseau. I thought it looked good at the time, so I wore it. Now I think... taking other people's things will shorten your life and fortune. Now that you are back, this thing will be yours." The original owner."
She took off the jade bracelet from her wrist and put it in Yu Yunxi's hand.
Yu Yunxi lowered his eyes and looked at the jade bracelet. It was indeed her mother's...
However, what does Aunt Tang mean by this move?
"The things I took are few, so it's easy to return them to you, Miss. But some people's treasury is full and they won't spit it out easily." Aunt Tang turned around and glanced at Zhou and Chen with sarcastic eyes, meaning Said deeply.
"Aunt Tang, what are you talking nonsense about? The Prime Minister has not been in your yard for a long time. Are you stimulated?" Mrs. Chen scolded Aunt Tang with a dark face.
Aunt Tang, on the other hand, followed what Yu Yunxi had just done, calmly found a seat and sat down, and then watched Mrs. Chen get angry in a good mood.
"So, what Aunt Tang said is true? My mother's dowry has become someone's treasury?" Yu Yunxi clenched her bracelet tightly and asked coldly.
"Don't listen to Aunt Tang. She has been crazy for so many years, and no one in the family will listen to her." Ms. Chen denied loudly.
Zhou glanced over there with unkind eyes, "Aunt Tang, don't think that because you have a sister who is a noble in the palace, you can be arrogant at home."
"If grandma thinks Aunt Tang is talking nonsense, then prove it to me." Yu Yunxi gave an indifferent smile and looked at Mrs. Zhou with sharp eyes.
"That's enough, how many times have we explained to you, how could we covet your mother's dowry? If you continue to make trouble unreasonably, the family law will take care of you!" Mrs. Zhou felt like she was getting angry.
"That's enough for today's greetings. Let's go back to our own courtyards." She waved her hand again, trying to drive Yu Yunxi away.
At this moment, Yu Yunxi actually covered her mouth and smiled.
"Grandma won't give me a chance to go to the warehouse to count the dowry, so I ask you to go and count it yourself, and then send someone to deliver the things to the Ministry of War." She said slowly.
What? Send it to the Ministry of War?
After Yu Yunxi said these words, everyone finally realized that something was wrong.
"Yu Yunxi, please tell me clearly, what is the Ministry of War?" Zhou stared at Yu Yunxi.
Yu Yunxi, on the other hand, calmly took out a piece of paper from her body and said quietly: "Before returning to the Yu Mansion, I first went to the Ministry of War and donated all my mother's dowry to It’s official.”
"What did you say?" Ms. Zhou felt dizzy and almost fell down, but the maid behind her quickly supported her with quick hands and eyes.
Mrs. Chen and the aunts also looked very flustered.
Yu Wanrong could barely stabilize her mind. She walked over quickly and snatched the paper from Yun Xi's hand.
After taking a quick glance, her face became anxious.
Because it was clearly recorded in the book that Yu Yunxi wanted to donate to the officials, saying that it was to buy food and clothes for the soldiers of the army.
At the end, Yu Yunxi's name was clearly written and signed.
"Because my mother's dowry back then was so sensational. When the government was helping to escort them, they also recorded all of them in this booklet..."
Yu Yunxi once again raised the pamphlet in his hand.
"The people from the Ministry of War only gave me ten days. Grandma, madam, ten days...should be enough for you to take stock, right?"
She looked at Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Chen, her red lips moved slightly, and she said with a smile.
"You little bitch, are you crazy?" Zhou was so angry that her whole body trembled.
That was a dowry that was far more than several times Yufu's family property. She actually donated it to the Ministry of War like this. She must be crazy!
"Why don't you discuss such an important matter with us?" Ms. Chen was so angry that she could hardly breathe.
That was real gold and treasures, which originally belonged to them!
She also wanted to prepare Shili Hongzhuang for Ronger when she married the prince...
Now, because of this idiot Yu Yunxi, he has given it up to someone else.
Listening to Mrs. Chen's questioning, Yu Yunxi's face grew colder.
"That's my mother's thing. Even if I throw it into the sea, it's still my business. No one else has the right to interfere. You'd better think carefully about how to collect the things in the book in the remaining few days. Lost the official property
Yes, that’s really going to kill your head.”
After Yu Yunxi said these cold words, she turned around and left, leaving those people with their eyes red with anger.
"Miss."
After Yu Yunxi walked out, Aunt Tang actually caught up with her.
She paused slightly and looked back at him, "What's the matter with Aunt Tang?"
"The eldest lady's counterattack today makes me very happy. The eldest lady came back this time to avenge your mother. I can help you..."
"No need. The reason why I donated my mother's dowry was because I felt pity for the soldiers of Tianxia Kingdom who had no clothes to wear and no food to eat." Yu Yunxi interrupted the other party directly.
She nodded to the other party and left directly.
Aunt Tang looked at the direction Yu Yunxi left, her expression gradually became colder, and finally she became a little resentful.
Here, Qianjiao followed Yu Yunxi. After hesitating for a long time, she couldn't help but ask: "County Master, I think Aunt Tang is a sincere person. Why don't we cooperate with her?"
"Sincerity? How did you tell that she was sincere?" Yu Yunxi stopped and asked in a strange tone.
"She, she returned the bracelet to you." Qianjiao replied softly.
Yu Yunxi pressed her eyebrows, with a somewhat helpless expression: "Qianjiao, although your martial arts are high, but mentally, you are still not mature enough for Qianmei. How sincere do you think the people in the deep palace and backyard can be?"
"If I'm not wrong, Aunt Tang will have a miscarriage and will be unable to break away from her relationship with the Chen family. Aunt Tang is isolated and helpless in Yufu. It just so happens that I'm back. What do you think she will do?" She continued to ask.
"Of course I want to win over you!"
"That's right, she can win over me today to avenge herself, and she can win over my enemies for her grudge against me in the future. Do you understand?" Yu Yunxi's tone became serious.
"I understand, this slave is not thinking carefully." Qianjiao nodded quickly.
Aunt Tang probably wanted to use the county boss to deal with Chen and the others. Fortunately, the county boss firmly refused.
"One more thing, County Lord, so much dowry has been given to the Dog Emperor's people, isn't it such a loss?" Qianjiao looked distressed.
Hearing this, Yu Yunxi smiled and said softly: "When Taizu was still alive, in order to solve the problem of insufficient treasury during wartime, he strongly encouraged merchants to donate money. One of the regulations was that the donor could designate the army to which the donation was made.
"
"so?"
"So, when I signed the pledge, I agreed to donate to the Southwest Army." Yu Yunxi said quietly.
She had known for a long time that the Yu family's jackals would not spit out her mother's dowry, so she had made preparations in advance.
"County Master, you are so amazing." Qian Jiao's face was full of excitement.
This money must eventually return to their hands.
"By the way, County Lord, what are we going to do now?"
"My mother opened a medical clinic back then. It has been occupied by the Chen family for so many years. It's time for me to go and have a look." After Yu Yunxi finished speaking, she walked out the door.
