Volume 1, Chapter 95: The Dowry in Hand (Part I)

The old lady leaned her back on the pillow and squinted as if she was asleep. Standing beside him were Qiaohui Qiao, like two big girls.

Mother Zheng stood in front of the old lady and couldn't help but panic in her heart. Just now the old lady said that she had something to ask her, but she didn't ask anything for a long time, which made her go up and down.

I don't know how long it took before the old lady opened her eyes and said lightly to Mother Zheng: "How long has it been?" "How long does this naturally refer to how long you have been in Mohs.

Mother Zheng was stunned, thinking that the old lady had asked the wrong question, and what time was she asking. Before he could speak, he was coldly glanced at by the old lady, and the information revealed in his eyes made Zheng's mother's legs sweak and she knelt on the ground. However, because there was still the last extravagant hope in his heart, he did not take the initiative to confess.

Seeing that Mother Zheng hadn't replied for a long time, the old lady said coldly, "How long have you been hooking up with Mo's?" "In the past, Mrs. Zheng said good things for Mo's and only thought that Mo's was hiding well, but now I know that she had hooked up with Mo's a long time ago.

Mother Zheng almost fainted in fright, and since the old lady asked this, she naturally had real evidence: "The old lady is gracious, the old lady is gracious." "She didn't want to, she just was forced into that job, and she couldn't help it. Mother Zheng knew the old lady's temperament, so she didn't shirk her responsibility when it happened, but begged for forgiveness.

The old lady didn't have so much time to listen to Zheng's mother's nonsense: "For so many years, I asked myself if I treated you well?" Say, why? "The old lady sent someone before? One? Root? Read? The novel xstxt went to inquire to find out why Zheng's mother betrayed herself, although she knew the reason, but the old lady still wanted to listen to Zheng's mother in person.

Zheng's mother knew that she couldn't hide it, so she immediately revealed the reason. It turned out that Zheng's mother's son was gambling outside and owed a huge debt, and if he didn't do it within the time limit, he would be beaten to death. Zheng's mother is such a son, how can she watch him die. I wanted to beg the old lady, but when I thought of the old lady's temperament, I retreated a little, and at this time the eldest lady Mo came forward.

Mother Zheng hurriedly said: "Old lady, the old slave didn't do anything to be sorry for the old lady. If the old lady doesn't believe it, the old slave wishes that the sky will hit five thunders, and after death, he will go to eighteen layers of hell, and he will not be able to live forever. ”

The old lady listened and looked at Mother Zheng, such a heavy oath made her willing to believe that what Mother Zheng said was true, but no matter how true she was, she couldn't veto the fact that she betrayed her.

Zheng's mother really didn't do a lot of things for Mo's, and there were only two valuable information she really revealed to Mo's in the past two years: first, the second old man was seriously ill and wrote a letter to the old lady, and she didn't know what was written in the letter; The other thing is what Yueyao said about her mother's dream.

The old lady thought about Yueyao's cold eyes when she looked at Zheng's mother, she was afraid that this child already knew that Zheng's mother had taken refuge in the Mo family, but how did Yueyao know, this is really a mystery: "For the sake of you serving me for so many years, it is not difficult for me to do it for you, you know how to do it yourself." "People are flesh and blood, and the old lady can understand that Zheng's mother must do this in order to save her son, but understanding does not mean acceptance. She is a dying person, and she will not create evil, and let Zheng's mother fend for herself.

Mohs is a person who will do everything to achieve his goals. Lianjia handed over to Mo's, she really didn't feel at ease! The old lady was worried about the future of the Lian family, but she couldn't move the Mo family now, and moving the Mo family was equivalent to burying a pair of grandchildren, and the old lady had never felt so sad.

The old lady thinks too much, and with her current physical condition, she really shouldn't think too much, and she can't hold it at the moment and faints.

When Yueying came in, she saw the fainted old lady and shouted, "Come on, go and ask for a doctor." Grandmother fainted again, so go and get a doctor. ”

Doctor Tang sighed deeply: "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven." "Now in May, the season is about to change, and the elderly are the most difficult when the season changes.

Yueyao didn't believe that her grandmother was dying, and her grandmother was obviously gone when she was in August. It's only the beginning of May, how can it be gone: "No, grandmother will be fine." "Something must have gone wrong, how could it be three months early. This is impossible, it is absolutely impossible

Mo's face was sad, but his heart was relieved, this old immortal was finally going to die. It's good to be dead, and when you're dead, no one will press on her head anymore.

The old lady still has unfinished business, where is she willing to leave like this. After a day and a night of coma, the old lady survived.

The old lady opened her eyes and looked at the grandchildren in the room, especially when she saw Tingli and Tingyi, and closed her eyes thinking about what happened before. For the sake of her two grandsons and the future of her family, she can't punish Mo severely, otherwise her grandson's marriage will not go well.

Doctor Tang heard that the old lady woke up and took the old lady's pulse: "Old lady, your current body must be resting, and you must not work anymore." "If you recuperate, you can live for a while longer, and if you work like this again, you really have to prepare for the aftermath immediately.

The old lady shook her head: "There are still things to deal with, so I can't help but work hard." "There are so many things to deal with, how can she be still.

Doctor Tang couldn't do anything, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

The old lady recruited Moh: "Qiaohui has been by my side for so long and has done her best for me. The family affair has long been decided, you choose a good day for her, and she will marry in style. The other old ladies are also ready to follow their wishes, if they want to go, they will give the deed, and if they are not willing to go, they will continue to stay.

Although Mo Shi regretted why the old lady didn't go now, she also clearly felt that the old lady had been dull and lost much time. Stay up, it's not bad for more than ten years, so she won't disobey the old lady now, and the old lady will do whatever she wants. Ninety-nine steps were taken, not too bad.

Zheng's mother was sick, very sick, and was moved out.

Yueyao was a little surprised: "How did Mother Zheng get sick?" She saw that Zheng's mother had always been in good health, and she was sick no matter how she said she was sick. I'm afraid something big has happened. It's just that these things are all guesses by her, and it's hard to tell Yueyao.

Hao's mother shook her head and said she didn't know. Hao's mother has also served by the old lady's side for many years, and she knows the old lady's temper very well. If you don't really get sick, you will definitely have to serve you.

The old lady was in better health, so she asked someone to send an invitation to the Ma family and invite someone from the Ma family to come over. As for what matter, the old lady did not say.

Zhuang Ruolan took the post very strangely, but she got the news that even the old lady was seriously ill, and time was short, and now the children and grandchildren in the mansion are all around to do their filial piety. Lian Fu posted to them at this time for something, it must not be a chat.

In the past, Yueyao had something to do, and Ma Chengteng had no way to go in person, after all, Cheng was unreliable. Now his daughter-in-law is capable, and he is very satisfied with the fact that she has been in order inside and out in less than a month. So this matter asked Ruolan to go on behalf of the Ma family. The affairs of the inner house are naturally handled by the women of the inner house, and Ruolan can't handle it when he comes forward.

Ruolan looked at the invitation: "What kind of dumb riddle did you say this old lady played?" ”

Caiyun shook her head: "Girl, I won't know tomorrow." "I can't guess, but I don't think it's going to be a good thing.

Ruolan smiled: "Yes, I'll know tomorrow." ”

Ruolan had just finished removing her makeup, and Ma Peng came back from the front yard. The husband and wife are blending oil and affection in the honey of the newlywed period, but it reassures the maids around them.

Caiyun said softly: "The aunt chosen by the girl is not bad. "It's not good-looking, but it hurts. Every day when I go home, I bring some pastries that the girl likes to eat, and I don't look at the maids around me, which is very rare. Of course, the most rare thing is that the mother of the Cheng family is still sick, and the girl in Mafu has the final say. This day is really proud, not so aggrieved in the dealer.

Caiyi whispered: "When did the girl's eyes miss." ”

Zhuang Ruolan went to Lianfu after breakfast on the second day.

When I went to the upper room, I saw Yueyao serving the old lady in front of the bed.

The old lady looked at Zhuang Ruolan and said with a smile to Qiaohui: "Go and invite the eldest lady to come over." No matter what, the presence of the lady in charge of the family is indispensable.

Yueyao didn't know that the old lady had made a post and invited someone from the Ma family to come over. Now that she suddenly saw her eldest cousin here, she felt that something had happened. It turned out that her prediction was right, and sure enough, something happened.

Mohs arrived soon.

The old lady smiled in front of Mo Shi and said, "I also hope that you will come over this time to be a witness, and there will be no disputes in the future." ”

Ruolan stood up and hurriedly said, "Don't dare, the old lady has something to do, but please command." "She is a junior, she just came to audit, and if there is anything embarrassing, she still needs to tell her father-in-law and then reply......

Mo Shi's eyelids jumped again and again when she heard this, and she had a very bad premonition: "Mother, the doctor said that you should recuperate and not work hard. ”

The old lady waved her hand: "No obstacles, just deliver some things, nothing to worry about." ”

Mohs's complexion changed dramatically.

Ruolan probably guessed what it was, and it was still easy to guess that the Ma family needed to witness the delivery of things. However, she wondered why the old lady did this, it was very bad for the eldest lady of the Lian family.

The old lady smiled bitterly in her heart when she saw Ruolan's faint expression, the Ma family married such a smart, capable and calm daughter-in-law, and in the future, the third girl and the elder brother relied on: "Qiaohui, take out the things and hand them to the third girl." As soon as the old lady's words fell, Qiao Hui entered the house and took out two red phoenixes wearing peony square boxes.

Yue Yao still guessed what this thing was, but she didn't dare to show it on her face, looked at the box and asked in a low voice, "Grandmother, is this ......?"

The old lady said with a smile: "A box contains your mother's dowry list and the deed paper of the field shop, and you can keep it alive." The other large items of the dowry list, as well as the decorations and other items are all in Lanxi Courtyard, you sorted out Lanxi Courtyard last time, and when the time comes, check with the booklet you made. "The things in Lanxi Courtyard haven't moved, even if there is a discrepancy with the dowry list, they are all small heads.

Yueyao had tears in her eyes: "Grandmother ......" She saw that the old lady fainted, and after waking up, she was weak and didn't say anything about the dowry. Yueyao planned to wait for her grandmother to come forward and her uncle come forward to get her mother's dowry back, she really didn't expect her grandmother to be seriously ill and still worry about it.

The old lady smiled and said, "Silly girl, cry and cry, grandmother is fine." Three girls, this other box is the identity deeds of those people who your mother married, and you have to keep these things properly. "These things are not in Yue Yao's hands, they control their life and death, and the old lady believes that Yue Yao can control these people well.

Moh's heart seemed to sink into ice water, and his heart was cold. She never dreamed that the old lady would give Ma's dowry to Yueyao. Mo Shi wanted to scold angrily in his heart, but his face was gloomy: "Mother, how can the third girl take care of the dowry of the second brother and sister when she is only nine years old." "Mo Shi naturally wouldn't say that she would take care of such a dowry, let alone that there were outsiders here, even if there were no outsiders present, she wouldn't say it.

Ruolan wondered why the old lady did this. But she didn't speak, this time she was only asked to come to testify, and she wouldn't open her mouth without naming her. In fact, she was also very strange why the old lady did this, thinking that she could get her mother's dowry at such a young age because of the support of her grandmother, who sent her uncle to negotiate with her father, and the dowry was handed over to her. At that time, I almost my grandmother to death.

Ruolan took a deep look at the tearful Yueyao, and muttered in her heart that this child is not simple! Allowing the old lady of the Lian family to hand over the dowry to her is not only a reason to consider less trouble for her, but also the operation of this cousin. Nine-year-olds, it's not easy.

Ruolan unintentionally looked at the eldest lady's expression, and when she saw the eldest lady's expression, Ruolan guessed what the eldest lady was thinking, she had seen such a look on her grandmother before. Ruolan also understood why Yueyao had to get her aunt's dowry at the moment. Such a person is very greedy, and when it comes to her hands, it is estimated that it will be a meat bun and a dog with no return.

The old lady looked at Yue Yao and said, "Three girls, what do you say?" "The initiative in this matter is now in Yueyao's hands, if Yueyao is willing to hand it over, the old lady won't say anything, if Yueyao doesn't hand it over, she will also support it.

Yue Yao naturally won't hand it over to Mo's: "Grandmother, aunt, I can learn if I don't understand." After saying this, he blessed Ruolan: "I heard that my cousin-in-law started to deal with housework when she was eight years old, and Yueyao wants to learn more from her cousin-in-law in the future." This sentence has actually left Mohs out, and such a hint is quite obvious.

Ruolan smiled and said, "As long as I will, I will not hide my secrets." "As Yueyao's additional representative, if you don't express your position at this time, you can't say anything.

Even the old lady turned her head to look at Mo, and Mo naturally said: "If the three girls don't understand anything in the future, just come and ask your aunt." ”

This matter was decided in a few words, and the smooth process was beyond Yueyao's expectations. Of course, if it weren't for the old lady's appearance, she would definitely have a lot of trouble getting her mother's dowry back.

If it was usual, Yueyao would definitely ask Ruolan to sit in the yard, but now the situation is a little special, Yueyao sent Ruolan out of the yard: "Cousin-in-law, thank you." ”

Ruolan said with a smile: "I didn't do anything, thank you." Take care of yourself, you can lose a lot of weight. "Not only has I lost weight, but my complexion is not as good as before.

Yue Yao nodded: "Cousin-in-law, I will take care of myself." ”

Ruolan nodded and went back. After getting into the carriage, Caiyun couldn't help but say: "Even the old lady will hand over her aunt's dowry to the third girl, and I don't know if the third girl can take care of her aunt's dowry." ”

Ruolan smiled lightly: "Since my cousin dares to ask for the dowry back, she naturally knows it." "It is better to get the dowry left and right, and eat rent if you don't know how to do business, than to hand over the hands of people with bad intentions. As for the people below who are fooling around, they don't worry about it, there is no father-in-law and husband, and there is also her cousin-in-law. This cousin is exquisite. thinks that she got her mother's dowry back then, but she offended her grandmother and stepmother, and now her grandmother doesn't want to see her. Of course, it cannot be denied that even the old lady is indeed sensible.

After Yueyao went back, she hugged the old lady Lian and cried silently: "Grandmother, Doctor Tang said that you can't work hard if you want to recuperate. For the sake of your granddaughter, you are bothered, granddaughter is really unfilial. ”

The old lady touched Yueyao's forehead: "Silly girl, grandmother doesn't think about you, who else thinks about you." Grandmother's body knows on its own, and it's dying. I won't be able to see you anymore, so you have to take good care of yourself. "What she can't worry about now is Yue Yao and Ting Zheng, but she really can't hold on.

Yueyao cried a little out of strength, but was still persuaded by Qiaohui and Qiaoru.

I thought it was in the bag, but the duck flew to the beak. Such a large sum of money was handed over to a nine-year-old girl, and Mo was so angry that he gritted his teeth. When Mo went back, he smashed the teapot and teacup on the table: "It's really old and confused." ”

Hua Pozi could only persuade on the side: "Madame, dissipate your anger, dissipate your anger." Madam, we have endured it for so many years, and now we are close to the door, and this matter will be calculated later. "In fact, it is easy to calculate the money in the hands of the third girl, but it is a little troublesome to calculate these dowries. As long as there are still people in the Ma family, the dowry of the three girls will be handed over when they marry, because only the children have the right to distribute the dowry. Even if the others are usurped, they will have to return it when the time comes.

Hua Pozi was shocked that this third girl was becoming more and more shrewd, and she couldn't take advantage of it. Mrs. Hua even thought that Madame could really calculate the money.

Mo Shi glanced at Hua Pozi: "What do you know?" "The third girl is becoming more and more shrewd, and she can't get back what she has in her hands. And once this matter spreads, it will also damage her reputation. Imagine that her mother-in-law did not dare to hand over her brother-in-law's dowry to her for safekeeping, and people who did not know the truth must have thought that she wanted to covet these possessions. Of course, she wanted these things, but it had to be without damaging her reputation.

Mrs. Liu next to her smiled bitterly in her heart. I want the money in the hands of the third girl, and I don't want my reputation to be affected, how can there be such a good thing in the world.

Hua Pozi whispered, "Madam, what should we do next?" ”

Mo sat down, thought for a long time, and said, "Don't do anything for the time being." "Now the old lady is not in good health, and the doctor also said that she has been raised for a lot of time, and it will be in the past two months if she can't raise it.
