Chapter 9 The dowry is gone
Jin Gui happily sat in the wing, and got Shen Ruohua's instructions, in the south wing room was a new wenge wood table and chair cabinet, because the room had to be lifted, and the bladder was pasted with a blessing tart and a soft window flower, and even the couch was spread out with a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren embroidered brocade quilts, which looked joyful and new.

She touched the embroidered brocade quilt, and the joy in her heart couldn't hide from the corners of her mouth, since then she is Aunt Gui, the real master, no longer a girl, she is young and beautiful will definitely give birth to a son and a half daughter to the third master, and her own lady is a soft and glutinous character, at that time, is she still afraid that there will be no good life?
When I thought of the handsome appearance of the third master, every time I talked to her, she was gentle and considerate, and she would be able to serve him in a dignified manner in the future, and she felt more and more that she was planning correctly.
Yao Tao came in with the little girl, and the little girl was holding a new dress in her hand, which was worn by Jin Gui after carrying the room.
Yao Tao walked in and bowed to Jin Gui: "Aunt Gui, the newly made dress has been delivered, and Mrs. asked the maid to bring someone over." But he didn't look at Jin Gui, and his eyes were just staring at the ground.
Jin Gui looked at her with red eyes, stepped forward and pulled her up: "Even you want to laugh at me?" There was a cry in her voice, "Others don't know me, you don't know it, I'm helpless, otherwise I wouldn't ......" She couldn't go on, and covered her face with a handkerchief, so she wasn't sad.
Seeing her like this, Yao Tao couldn't bear it after all, and just wanted to speak, when she heard someone outside talking: "Yao Tao, are you in the room?" The lady asked you to go back and talk back. ”
Fang Xing opened the curtain and came in, holding a lacquered wooden snail box in her hand, and walked forward to salute Jin Gui with a smile on her face: "Aunt Gui is well, this is sent by the lady's maid, and it is a reward for the dignity of the aunt to carry the house." She deliberately bit the words aunt and carrying the room very hard, and there was undisguised contempt in her eyes.
Jin Gui put down the handkerchief and glared at Fang Xing, losing his previous sad appearance, and his tone stiffened: "Put it down." ”
Fang Xing handed the box to the little girl and pulled the peach: "The lady wants you to reply, don't delay." Yao Tao agreed and retreated with her.
Fang Xing's face sank, she originally planned to think of a soft relationship with Qingmei and Yao Tao, and she could make friends again, and she could let them help more if she became an aunt in the future, how could she also let the lady be biased towards herself, and she didn't want Fang Xing to spoil her business. Yes, she ruined Fang Xing's good deeds, and Fang Xing naturally won't make her comfortable.
She sneered, but Fang Xing was afraid that she didn't know, she saw that incident with her own eyes, if she let the lady know, she was afraid that Fang Xing would not be able to think about it.
In the east wing, Shen Ruohua and Mama Xia were talking, and Mama Xia took the account book and said with a bitter face: "...... When the lady first entered the door, there were 20,000 taels of silver in the box, and the Zhuangzi in Kyoto was everywhere, with 400 acres of fields, and there were two shops in the West Market alone...... There are only less than five hundred taels of silver, and the Zhuangzi field is still there, and it cannot be sold without the lady's seal. It's just that the shop has also been rented out, and the rent has not been accounted for. ”
Shen Ruohua's face sank, the Shen family was too cowardly at the beginning, and the woman's dowry was the confidence to marry into her husband's family and settle down, not only did she not keep the dowry, but she was also coaxed by Mrs. Xue to hand over the dowry box silver and the grange shop to Mama Chang, saying that she was helping to take care of it, and she never let her see it again.
Originally, the Shen family still had some self-consideration, but Mrs. Shen was not at ease and deliberately hid the two thousand taels of silver tickets in the makeup box with her, and they also gave Xue Wenhao to take them out for entertainment, but she even had to pay the money for the girl's mother-in-law from the monthly money.
Mama Xia and several people persuaded the Shen family to ask her to get the dowry back, but the Shen family never dared to speak, and now it has become such a mess when she sends it back.
Shen Ruohua's face is not very good-looking, it seems that this old lady of the Guangping Marquis Mansion, who is famous in the noble mansion in Kyoto and is dedicated to the Buddha and amiable, is really powerful, not only takes care of her son's yard tightly, but even fishes out the daughter-in-law's dowry.
"The money hasn't been paid this month, and I'm afraid this little bit of silver is not enough." Mama Chang had already embezzled the monthly money sent to Qiongbi Courtyard, leaving only such a little silver, deducting the monthly money of the people under the girl, and even the kitchen was not used to buy it.
Shen Ruohua said coldly: "Since there is no money to pay the monthly money, I will deduct all the money sent to the public middle school, and stick to Qiongbi Courtyard first." "After the Shen family got married, Mrs. Xue made a rule that each room should hand over the silver to the public middle school every month, and Qiongbi Yuan had to hand over the silver as soon as she got back the account book.
Mama Xia was taken aback, and said in a low voice: "If you teach the old lady to know, I'm afraid that ......"
Shen Ruohua sneered: "It's okay, if she blames her, I will naturally have something to say." "I want to take this dowry money for nothing, there is no such cheap thing in this world!
It is said that each room has to pay silver, and Mrs. Shizi of the long room will naturally not pay it when she manages the house, and the second lady will cry in the yard after a few months, saying that the second master Xue Wenqing has no official and no lord, but he is idle at home and eats her dowry, where is the silver handed over to the public middle school, Yao's maiden family and the prime minister's mansion are close, and the old lady did not dare to criticize her anymore, in the end, only the third room handed over the silver on time, and the Shen family only felt sad when she knew, and she didn't dare to say anything to the old lady, so she handed over all the silver money to Mama Chang, and it was not enough.
Fang Xing and Yao Tao came in and replied: "The south wing is ready. ”
Shen Ruohua stroked his sideburns and said nonchalantly: "Since you are ready, let's choose a day to carry the house." ”
