Chapter Seventy-Three: The Sky-High Dowry
At the beginning, he sent Steward Mo to his hometown to invite people, but he was worried that they would take Qiao, but he didn't expect to be so happy, and he also regarded her as the helmsman of the Bai family, which was the trust of the Bai family in her, "The Ge family is just a women's family, where is there any better idea, but listen to the arrangement of a few elders." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The words of the elders are very right in terms of reason and reason. For a while, dozens of pairs of eyes stared at Bai Qianqian in unison.
Is this coercion? White and shallow and dark, Ge's good wrist! Bai Changqing's words, she didn't listen, and others at most said that she was shallow and unfilial; If the clansmen do not obey, they will be charged with the notoriety of being a rebel and deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestors.
Ge wiped away his tears and stared at Bai Qianqian, looking like he was winning.
In the gaze of everyone, Bai Qianqian's face still did not change, but he showed a bit of atmosphere, which made several elders impressed, "Since several elders have already said this, shallow is irrefutable." ”
"However, those shops are no longer in my name." Bai Qianqian said that he ordered the broken jade to go back to the house to get the transfer agreement.
The agreement is clearly written, the Bai family's family business is all purchased by Shangguan Yue'er, which belongs to the Shangguan family, and Bai Qianqian has transferred all the family business to Shangguan Han's name.
"A few elders, you have my mother's original dowry list in your hand, do you want to take a look?" The transfer agreement was prepared by her in advance, just in case, and the dowry list was fake. She found this list in the secret room of the West Garden.
"Thirty thousand taels of gold."
"Ten pearls of the night."
"Twelve jade bracelets."
"Thirteen shops."
……
A full hundred and twenty-eight pieces, each piece is expensive!
The eldest uncle had lived most of his life and had never seen such a rich dowry!
Ge was obviously frightened, with so many dowries, even in the entire Jiangnan, there was no second family. This is a far cry from the family business she usually controls! It seems that Bai Changqing hid from her and intercepted a lot of gold, silver and jewelry! Still don't trust her!
For a moment, the whole room was silent, and no one spoke.
"My mother's dowry is all purchased by the Shangguan family, and this list is written by my grandfather's father, and there is no fake. With this list, can't the Shangguan family take back the family business? ”
"There is another matter, which Qianqian has not had time to report to Aunt Ge. After my mother left, you were in charge of the family business, and I think you know the whereabouts of my mother's dowry best. My eldest cousin took inventory, and many of the items in this list were missing, I don't know if Aunt Ge can find them out and return them to the Shangguan family. ”
Ge Shi replied, "Shallow, you just torture me when you say that. The lord is the head of the family, and he takes care of the family business, and I am a woman, where do I know where the many dowries go. Elders Mingjian, with the old man and the old lady here, where do I dare to meddle in the dowry of Sister Shangguan. ”
It must be the old lady and the old man who swallowed the dowry! This is guarding her everywhere! In vain, she was infatuated with the master, and she was plotting for the Bai family everywhere, but she was the one who was deceived. Fortunately, I have been smart all these years and have made some money early.
There is a dowry list written by the old lady of Shangguan herself, which means that those things are indeed from Shangguan's family. Although the imperial court law did not mention such trivial matters as the recovery of dowries, there were such cases. For example, a few years ago, Sheng Jing made a lot of repentance in the marriage.
It is the daughter of the imperial merchant Jia family, who was promised to the youngest son of Lord He of Dali Temple. The Jia family has been an imperial merchant for generations, extremely wealthy, and the dowry is rich. The originally lively wedding banquet became a farce, and Lord He's youngest son was drunk, and he colluded with his handmaid and was hit by the guests. Because of this, the Jia He family fell out, and even went to the front of the palace.
Later, the He family withdrew the Jia family's dowry, and the marriage contract between the two families was annulled.
Several elders of the Bai family were sneering, and they didn't know how to decide. Later, the uncle with the highest rank spoke, "Ge's family, since the Shangguan family wants to take back the dowry, and there is a written evidence to prove it, the Bai family has to admit it." Changqing's illness can't be delayed, you have to think of other ways. ”
"Our Bai family, Changqing is a capable person, and he is also the richest line, we all have children in our family, I am afraid that we can't help."
With that, he led everyone out of the Bai family compound in a hurry.
Ge Shi sat on the ground, and the whole person looked depressed. Bai Raorao rushed over, hugged Ge Shi and cried, "Mother, what can I do...... I'm so scared, I'm worried about my father'......"
I have to say that although Bai Raorao is a delicate person, she is a little sincere to her father.
On the other hand, the white demon is surprisingly calm. Bai Qianqian couldn't help it, looked at her a few more times, and found that the white demon was also looking at her, and the look in his eyes made people unable to see or touch it.
"Daddy is seriously ill, don't gather around here, let's all disperse, I have a few words to say to Aunt Ge." Bai Qianqian branched out of the others. In the room, only she and Ge were left.
"Aunt Ge, don't cry, now that there is no one, why bother pretending in front of me." Bai Qianqian believed that Bai Changqing's illness was done by Ge's family. In order to snatch away the Bai family's business, this is just a small skill of carving insects!
Ge Shi knew that Bai Qianqian was not so easy to fool, and he no longer hid it, "I lost, are you very proud?" ”
Bai Qianqian shook his head, "Smug? Less! Why should I be complacent? Just because I protected my mother's property? ”
"Hmph-" Ge Shi flicked his long sleeves, his eyes full of disdain, "You think I really care about this bit of family business?" I just feel sorry for your father, he has worked hard all his life, isn't it for these family businesses? It's good for you to give your father's hard work to others, this is your filial piety as a child? ”
"Whether I am a filial person or not, I can't be judged by Aunt Ge. I would like to ask Aunt Ge, what is the purpose of hiding in the Bai family with all her intentions? Originally, she didn't want to get involved in this topic, but when she left, the Bai family had nothing to do with her, and she let Aunt Ge do whatever she wanted in the Bai family. But in the end, she bears the surname of the Bai family, and maybe she still has the blood of the Bai family, so she should be the one who eliminates the harm of the Bai family!
"What do you mean?" Aunt Ge's phoenix eyes flashed, and there was a little more ruthlessness in her eyes!
It seems that the guess was correct! Ge's is really not simple! "What do I mean, Aunt Ge should understand best."
Could it be that she found something! Ge's heart was cold, if she really found out, then she couldn't be left behind, "I, Ge Mianmian, have been in the Bai family since I was fifteen years old, and I have never had the slightest selfishness, and I believe everyone will see this." I want to ask, in your eyes, what are my intentions towards the Bai family? What is there in the Bai family that I have drawn? ”
"The power of the Bai family? Money? With my appearance, do you really think I can't get better? ”
"Bai Qianqian, no matter what rumors you have heard, I want you to remember that I am the wife of the Bai family, no matter what you call me, I am the mother of the family, there is no doubt about it. And you will always be the daughter of the Bai family, and you are also my daughter, and you will have to go out of the Bai family ancestral hall when you marry in the future. ”
Is it possible to go out of the ancestral hall of the Shangguan family? There is no such reason in the world.
Bai Qianqian naturally understood what she meant, and asked her not to interfere.
