One hundred and seventy-seventh chapter, the dowry list to fetch
"How is Mrs. Hou's health?" Xing Qi asked with concern after Yu Ruiwen sat down and everyone bowed again.
"It's no big deal, it's much better." Yu Ruiwen said vaguely, upset, "How will my nephew handle this matter?"
"Even if the Marquis of Zhengyuan has another high position and the marriage is canceled, the dowry gift we sent must be returned to us in double, and it must be made clear that the marriage was canceled because of the Marquis of Zhengyuan."
Xing Qi directly set out the conditions, not requiring that this matter must fall on Yu Lanxue, but that the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion must bear the responsibility.
This is actually a very relaxed condition. Except for the larger property, Yu Ruiwen feels that this is not a problem. The original fault was the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
"I will discuss this matter with the clan elders and order Zhengyuan Hou Mansion to handle it." Yu Ruiwen agreed.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis." Xing Qi stood up and thanked him.
Yu Ruiwen waved her hand, indicating that he was not polite, and asked him to sit down again. When he wanted to speak, he found that his two daughters were still there, "Zhuqing, Jiao'er, you two go back first."
There are some things that should not be said to your daughter.
Yu Xijiao and Yu Zhuqing obediently stood up and said goodbye to Yu Ruiwen and went out.
When Xing Qi passed by, Yu Xijiao smiled at him, and Xing Qi understood slightly.
After the two daughters left, Yu Ruiwen picked up the tea cup in front of him, took a sip and then put it down: "My nephew, what should our family do about this matter?"
When Yu Ruiwen came back all the way, he also knew that it would not be good for his eldest daughter if this matter escalated. Later, when Mrs. Qian told her about it, she felt even more upset.
Now after listening to Xing Qi's method of dealing with it, I feel that it is not bad. It cuts through the chaos with a sharp knife and handles it cleanly. The Zhengyuan Hou Mansion will definitely agree to it and will not endlessly argue. It is a good method.
Speak up and ask questions.
"If Lord Marquis doesn't want Miss Yu to be affected, the best way is this." Xing Qi suggested tactfully, "The Marquis of Zhengyuan will apologize heavily and not publicize this matter!"
"Just asking them to pay some money is too cheap for them." Yu Ruiwen said angrily.
Xing Qi said in a low voice: "Master Hou, although it is said that I have given them an advantage, the marriage must have been cancelled, and the responsibility also falls on them. In addition to the two betrothal gifts from our house and the gift from Master Hou, the previous Lan Lan
When something happened to Mr.
The most important thing in a dowry is not necessarily something that can be seen. For example, those shops are the real chickens that lay golden eggs.
The fact that Mr. Lanxuan County sold his shop early also caused uproar in the city. Xing Qi had heard about it.
"Okay!" Yu Ruiwen smiled after appreciating the meaning behind Pin's words.
To apologize, you have to pay with your flesh. If Zhengyuan Hou Mansion is not bleeding this time, he will not let them go no matter what. If they actually set up such a vicious plan to harm his eldest daughter, then let them do it themselves.
Bear the consequences.
On the path in the inner courtyard, Yu Zhuqing walked very slowly, the handkerchief in her hand was stirring, and she looked very uneasy.
"Sister?" Yu Xijiao stopped and waited for her to come up.
Yu Zhuqing stepped a little faster, and when Yu Xijiao walked side by side, she pursed her lips, as if she had made up her mind: "Third sister, why don't you publicize Yu Lanxue's matter?"
The first few words of these words were spoken very slowly and it was difficult to say them out. After all, this was a bit different from her previous nurturing, but by the end it was obviously much more natural.
After he finished speaking, Yu Zhuqing found that it was not that difficult to say what he was thinking, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Xijiao smiled. She had been waiting for Yu Zhuqing to speak on her own, waiting for Yu Zhuqing to say what was in her heart. Qian had raised her eldest sister to be too timid and had to let her slowly become independent.
Now that the eldest sister can express her thoughts, she has already taken the first step.
"Sister, I'm afraid of breaking the jade bottle when hunting mice. If the matter is really forced on Yu Lanxue, I'm afraid that the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion will fight us to the death."
Yu Xi explained softly.
"Yu... Lan Xue is so important?" Yu Zhuqing frowned slightly, feeling very uneasy.
"Yu Lanxue should be very important. She wants to withdraw from this marriage. She doesn't like the Xingfu. She should prefer something better. Others in Zhengyuanhoufu also know and support it. If her reputation is damaged, her reputation will be damaged.
, the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion will not be able to climb the high branches. Now the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion should urgently need Yu Lanxue to find another good son-in-law."
Yu Xijiao raised the corners of her lips?
She was not necessarily a good son-in-law, but just a concubine for the old emperor. Of course she couldn't say this to Yu Zhuqing clearly.
Yu Zhuqing suddenly reached out and grabbed Yu Xijiao: "Third sister, thank you for what happened today. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid... I really wouldn't be able to survive."
Her eyes were red when she said this, and although there was still a smile on her lips, her smile turned pale. She knew very well the situation she was in before, and she was desperate to die at that moment.
"Sister, we are sisters, why do we have to say such things." Yu Xijiao shook her hand back and shook it softly and coquettishly.
"Thank you, Third Sister!" Yu Zhuqing's voice was choked with sobs. She was not very good at speaking, so these were the only words she could say at the moment. She turned her head to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes. When she turned back, she bit her lip: "Third Sister,
I hate Yu Lanxue, how could there be such a bad person? In the past, I always treated her as my sister, even if she asked me not to give away sachets to outsiders, I would give them to her."
If it weren't for her trust in Yu Lanxue, Yu Zhuqing wouldn't be so easy to talk to and would give her a sachet embroidered with green bamboo.
She had never given this sachet to anyone else before. It was for her personal use.
"What do you think of the sisters in the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion?" Yu Xijiao smiled slightly, leading Yu Zhuqing to continue talking. What happened just now was too shocking, and the eldest sister should have a lot to say at this moment.
Sure enough, after hearing her question, Yu Zhuqing immediately said: "Lanxuan County Lord is the kindest. Although he has the best status, he has the most kind heart. If it weren't for the County Lord in the past, my life would have been even worse!" Yu Lanxue looked at her most kindly.
She is dignified and has a gentle temper. She seems to have no temper. Yu Lanyan has a bad temper and makes others look bad from time to time. Yu Lanyun seems to be a little thoughtful."
Yu Lanyun is the legitimate daughter of the third chamberlain of Zhengyuanhou Mansion. The third chamberlain was originally a concubine and had little presence in the Zhengyuanhou Mansion. Her life was not good under the suppression of Mrs. Yu. Mrs. Yu didn't like this concubine very much.
But it was inconvenient to separate people. If the third bedroom left, how could the second bedroom still stay in Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, so I tolerated them.
"Sister, the most scheming one should be Yu Lanxue." Yu Xijiao smiled coldly, her eyes as sharp as knives, "She did most of what happened today. Everyone has known about the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion for so many years.
The eldest girl is a good person. Not only is she kind-hearted and gentle, but she also respects her elders. Even if her uncle is deceased, she still requires three years of filial piety."
"One person has been pretending for so long and pretending to make everyone feel that way. This kind of method is not something ordinary people can do."
Yu Xijiao will never forget how kind her mother was to Yu Lanxue in her previous life. She really took care of her wholeheartedly and treated her as her own daughter. Yu Lanxuan also regarded her as her real sister. What's good about her, even if
If you don’t have one yourself, you have to leave a copy for her first.
If she hadn't seen it in her dream, she would have thought until her death that only Yu Lanxue, the second wife, was good and treated her sincerely. But she was wrong, and so was her mother, and even there was always a misunderstanding.
The scheming grandfather got it all wrong, so that so many people could get it wrong, which originally explained Yu Lanxue's methods.
The scene when Yu Lanxue fell down, Yu Xijiao could see clearly when she dodged. When she fell like that, she originally wanted to fall on her. She thought that when she saw her fainted, she would help her leave. She would use other methods
Seek reconciliation and complain about grievances.
He didn't help her, but deliberately avoided her. Yu Lanxue fell down, her head was bruised and bloody, and she didn't even open her eyes. She fell to the ground so hard that she fainted, just like before she fell.
He just fainted.
Seeing this scene, Yu Xijiao can be sure that Yu Lanxue should have the biggest debt among her family's blood debts. With such a ruthless temperament, how could she just obey the Ning family, and how could she be in such a bad situation?
subordinate position.
Yu Lanxue? She used to think she was suspicious! She was really blind!
"Then let her go like this?" Even if Yu Zhuqing has a good temper, he is not willing to do so at this time.
"Sister, no!" Yu Xijiao smiled and walked forward slowly, saying at the same time: "Sister, it's not so easy to break up money and eliminate disasters sometimes. If you don't quarrel with them now, it doesn't mean you won't in the future.
Some things cannot be rushed, lest they jump over the wall in a hurry."
She will take revenge!
Her father died, her mother left, her younger brother was assassinated, and her entire grandfather’s family was slaughtered. How could she forget this blood feud!
"Spending money to eliminate disaster" doesn't just mean what it says on the surface!
Yu Lanxue's betrothal gift is still there now?
"What? You want... you want twice the betrothal gift?" Ning could hardly believe her ears and almost jumped up as she put her hands on the table.
This is the inner room where Yu Zhongyang is recuperating from his injuries. Yu Zhongyang is lying on the bed, his face is also ashen, and the person who replies is a steward in the palace who just came back from the punishment palace.
What I got was a reply from the Xingfu.
"Madam, this is what the Xingfu said. If they don't return twice the betrothal gift, they will never give up on this matter. Even if it means death, they will still discuss the right and wrong with our Zhengyuan Houfu. They also said that they will bring this matter to the forefront.
In the Censor's Office, the old man is not strict in running the family, and the eldest girl is... and the other..."
The people in charge didn't dare to tell what happened after that. The people in the criminal government dared to say it, but he didn't dare to tell it.
"That's too much!" Yu Zhongyang reached out and picked up a tea cup from the table, slamming it on the ground. After Ning was dumbfounded, she immediately burst into tears.
"Go get the dowry list." After Yu Zhongyang got angry, he ordered Ning with a gloomy face.
Mrs. Ning wiped her tears and looked at Yu Zhongyang timidly. Seeing that he was getting angry again, she hurriedly sent someone to get it...
