212 Obsessed
It is very humiliating to have an in-law who occupies the dowry of the original wife.
What's even more humiliating is that now the people still think that he is partnering with his in-laws.
When Lord Chen came back from the yamen, everyone he met was talking about this matter.
It's such a shame.
He finally waited in the study for his son, who became more and more disobedient as he grew up.
This time, he may have been too angry, so he didn't scold his son, and said directly: "You can tell me what to do." ”
Chen Boyan has just come over from Lin Xiaoyu, and the person who has finally been appeased is not killing himself, what idea can he have at this time?
lowered his head and looked apologetic: "For today's plan, I can only ask Lord Lin to return the dowry to Miss." ”
Chen Daren's nose was crooked, and he didn't notice that he didn't call his father-in-law, and said, "Then you go and say it yourself, I don't care about your father-in-law, let him return it quickly, don't be embarrassed." ”
Chen Boyan had already been there once, and Lin Shize still didn't tell him the truth, he muttered and said, "Dad, it's better for you to go, this matter is very important, I'm afraid that Lord Lin won't listen to me." ”
The beard on the side of Lord Chen's mouth kept shaking, and he scolded: "If he refuses to listen to you, let him send her daughter back, what is it? I don't even want face for that little money, I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore." ”
Chen Boyan thought that Lin Xiaoyu would die when he went back, and hurriedly persuaded: "Dad, in fact, it's not a little money, it is converted into 100,000 taels of silver. ”
Lord Chen's eyes almost fell out: "So many?"
This number was obtained from Lin Xiaojue, and I don't know the specifics, Chen Boyan said: "Just take out her dowry list and check it." ”
Lord Chen immediately called Mrs. Chen. asked Mrs. Chen to find out Lin Xiaoyu's dowry list and compare, and Chen Boyan circled all the industries that Lin Xiaojue said from memory. So an accounting, there are not as many as 100,000 taels.
Mrs. Chen smacked her lips when she saw it: "No wonder the Lin family opened their eyes when they met Qian." ”
Master Chen came back to his senses in shock. He scolded: "Can you take people's dowries by force?
Mrs. Chen didn't dare to say anything, she nodded again and again, but the chagrin in her heart was uncontrollable, if it wasn't for the Lin family's marriage change at that time, wouldn't these dowries belong to her daughter-in-law?
It's gone.
At this moment, Lord Chen's nose twitched, and he scolded her again: "Go and change your clothes, and treat Lin Xiaoyu as a good thing, take the stolen goods to use for you, and you are not too cold." ”
The incense that Mrs. Chen is using now is all sent by Lin Xiaoyu. Now that Chen Boyan has circled it, the spice shop is Lin Xiaojue's industry.
Isn't it just stolen goods?
It's a pity that she has been flattered by those ladies because of this, and if they knew about it, she would really never have the face to go out again.
Mrs. Chen scolded Lin Xiaoyu for her bad luck, wiped her tears and went back.
Chen Boyan was scolded by his father in front of his daughter-in-law for not being a good thing, and he was also very shameless, so he lowered his head.
As soon as Mrs. Chen left, Lord Chen pointed to the dowry list and sighed to Chen Boyan: "You, that's it." If you don't want a pearl to you, you have to pick up a stone, which is good, and both people and money are empty. ”
Chen Boyan was uncomfortable enough. He didn't recruit anyone to provoke anyone, he all acted according to the rules, why did all these bad things fall on him?
His face was bloodied. After a pause, he said, "Could it be that Dad also covets this money?"
It's impossible to say that you don't want to be tempted, but it's a pity that there is a Lord.
Lord Chen clenched his fists and slammed them on the table: "I still have to let Lin Shize go." Our family can't afford this infamy. ”
Although the dowry is rich, but if he wants to. can also be operated, as long as there is status, but if the reputation is ruined, then the official position will be unstable.
Chen Boyan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his brother's words, he couldn't do anything else for Lin Xiaojue, and this money would definitely help her get it back.
Lord Chen decided to save his reputation, and sent someone to inform Lin Shize to come to the house to discuss that night.
Although Lin Shize entered the Hanlin, Lord Chen was the head of the hundred officials, and he didn't dare not listen to his orders, so he went after discussing with the Shao Shi clan.
As soon as the two of them sat down, Lord Chen said impatiently: "Originally, I shouldn't have come out of this matter, but now the street is full of wind and rain, and my Chen family still needs to be faced. ”
Lin Shize couldn't imagine: "How can the emperor care about such a trivial matter." ”
Yes, this kind of trivial matter The emperor will not rectify you when he doesn't want to investigate you, and he can raid your house at a small time when he wants to fix you.
Lord Chen didn't want to talk to him too much now that it was an eventful time, so many people were staring at him about Lichu's affairs, in case he took a wrong step, how many people were waiting for him to give up his position.
He endured his anger and said: "You are also an official in the court, since you don't understand this truth, then I won't bother with you, since this dowry is not Shaoshi's, nor is it your Lin family, then you shouldn't come with Lin Xiaoyu, if you have to leave the dowry, then this daughter-in-law is not needed by our family, you can lead it back." ”
Lin Shize saw that Lord Chen had a resolute attitude, and he had the posture of keeping money without leaving people, and leaving people without money, he hurriedly said: "What are you talking about, my daughter? Since my daughter is married to the Chen family, she is the wife of the Chen family, how can there be any reason to return to the Lin family." Besides, our two families are married by the emperor, and you divorced your daughter-in-law, but you are disrespectful. ”
If not, who would have thought that Lin Xiaoyu would still be able to stay in his Chen family? Lord Chen snorted lightly.
Lin Shize said again: "We are all people with heads and faces, if you really let me go back, won't it be tantamount to admitting to the world that I forcibly took the dowry of my original wife? ”
Lord Chen was about to fucking jump to his feet: "Do you still know that you have a head and a face? You still know that you can't stand on your feet, so you still do this kind of immoral thing." ”
Lin Shize said in his heart that your official position is bigger than mine, but we are in-laws, and your words are too ugly, and his face sank: "How is this lack of morality? This money is not my Lin family's flower, it was given to your Chen family's daughter-in-law, and it will also be given to your grandson in the future." ”
Lord Chen waved his hand again and again: "Don't you dare, don't you dare." "It's not a flower that has been talked about, if it's a real flower, I don't know how to be poked in the back.
He pressed his hand on the edge of the table, and said with a suppressed anger: "I won't tell you more, just still or not?" ”
Lin Shize received the task from Shao Shi's family that he could not let go of the dowry in life or death, but at this time he didn't seem to have the capital to insist.
Just where to spit out, I can't say a whole sentence for half a day.
Lord Chen was furious: "If you are still obsessed, then I can only play the imperial court." (To be continued.) )
