108. Chapter 108
Early in the morning, after dressing up, it was time to say hello to the old lady, Xiao Jing proposed to check Shangguan Wuyu's dowry by the way, but because Zhao Zhengwen was also there, the old lady did not dare to protest in front of a large family, so she had to follow Xiao Jing's instructions Aunt Li to take out the list and check it one by one, and then move into Xiao Jing's warehouse.
Before Xiao Jing's uncle Lan came, holding the list of dowries kept by Shangguan Wuyu when she got married, Aunt Wang would never have thought that there would be such a thing, and she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Watching the same things move out and check, Xiao Zhengjie's family was red-eyed, I am afraid that so many things are enough for the ordinary eunuch family to eat for several lifetimes, not including the house deed and shops, this Shangguan family is so rich, and even has so much dowry for a daughter, how can it not make people get pink eye?
"According to the number on the list, but there are still a lot of things missing, but I don't know that the dignified town and the government still need to use their own wives to subsidize the family?" Lan's mouth was straightforward, and one sentence made the old lady blush, and her eyes shot at Aunt Wang, she panicked, she had lived more luxuriously than other ladies in the main room for so many years, that was because she had the rich dowry of Shangguan Wuyu, and now she naturally lacked many good things.
"Aunt Wang said that Jing'er still urinated to help Jing'er keep her mother's dowry, but she didn't know how to keep it less and less." If these dowries had not been put into her treasury earlier, it would not have been her own in the near future.
Zhao Zhengwen slapped the table and got up, "Okay, Aunt Wang, where did all the things you keep go?" Don't you steal from yourself? ”
"No, master...... The original list of dowries is in Xiao Jing's hands, and Aunt Wang can't tell where the dowry has gone even if she has thousands of mouths, so she has to blindly shake her head and shout that she is unjust and refuses to admit it.
She has Xiao Zhengwen's child in her belly, Xiao Jing doesn't expect to do anything to her, plus the Wang family has made meritorious contributions to saving Princess Gaoyue, and she is also a new upstart in the court, in order to let Xiao Zhengjie's family stand firm in the aristocratic circle, the old lady will not only not dispose of Aunt Wang, but also protect her and make her her her an ally, the reality is like this, there are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Xiao Jing just asked Zhao Zhengwen to see clearly who these people were around him, whether they were the little white rabbits who depended on him to survive or the chai wolves, tigers and leopards that could eat people.
Looking at the dowry that disappeared by one-third, Xiao Jing was not a pity, and after sending the Lan family away, she came back with a smile and waited for Xiao Zhengwen to dispose of Aunt Wang, which was nothing more than letting her go back and stay until the child was born.
The marriage of Wei Su and the county lord of Ning'an is scheduled for July 15, although it is a little rushed, but it is not an ordinary family, and it is enough to prepare for the wedding.
Time flies, in the blink of an eye to autumn, the weather is quite warm, since the Xiao family two brothers failed the scientific examination is not out of the door, all day in the room to study hard, vowing to be on the list when the next scientific examination comes, Xiao Zhengjie is hating iron does not become steel, after a temper tantrum is too lazy to care, to say that this year's Wen Zhuangyuan is not a coincidence, is the temple fair that night than the painting of the first place in the cold clothes man, at this time the emperor reused, was assigned to the Hanlin Academy, is now the new upstart in the court, although it is a poor student but deeply reused, Naturally, no one will look down on him.
But Wu Zhuangyuan is from the official family, that is, Shangguan Basket Jin, who has just returned from Jincheng, the heir of the Marquis of Zhongyong, the eldest son of the Shangguan family, and Xiao Jing's cousin.
I have long heard that Shangguan Basket has a good martial arts, he lives in Jincheng all the year round, and no one would have thought that he would be the dark horse that came in this year's scientific examination!
