Chapter 65: Begging for a dowry

"Tell me, what do you have to do to let Mingrui go."

Lu Gengnian was sitting precariously with a serious expression on his face.

When I called her, I shouted her by name and surname, and she was rusty and stiff.

Lu Qingling lowered his eyebrows, looking very gentle and obedient.

Hearing this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said lightly: "Where is my father, when will he Lu Mingrui be released, and what does it have to do with me?" ”

The old lady didn't speak at this time, but she would be extra concerned about anything about Lu Mingrui.

"Humph!"

Lu Geng slapped the table angrily, pointed at her nose and shouted: "You'd better not kick your nose in the face!" ”

"King Jin is biased towards you, but you are still a member of the General's Mansion, so you have to listen to me!"

"You immediately go to the prison and tell them that what happened that day was a misunderstanding, and the family has any grudges to die or live."

"He's still a kid, can't you let him have a little bit?"

Lu Qingling lifted his mouth: "No." ”

"You ......"

"If you want him to live, it's not impossible." She glanced at Lu Gengnian, who was about to get angry, and said slowly.

Lu Gengnian swallowed that anger again.

"You say."

"I want my mother's original dowry."

"What did you say?" Lu Gengnian jumped up immediately.

"Some of my mother's rich dowry was originally left to me, but now I haven't seen any of it."

"Father, I guess I don't have enough cheekiness to swallow the dowry my mother left me."

She speaks like this, occasionally pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, occasionally going straight, so angry that your heart hurts.

"Or in my father's eyes, Lu Mingrui's life is worth more than my mother's dowry?" Lu Qingling's sarcastic words were uncomfortable.

The old lady knew where the dowry had gone.

In order to make a fortune, all the money was used to pave the way for Lu Gengnian, where could he get it.

"The land deeds and land deeds that my grandfather gave me at the beginning, as well as some shops, have been operating in the General's Mansion."

"Although my mother is dead, her name is clearly written on the contract, shouldn't these things be returned to me?"

Tanglin has always had a rule that whoever writes on the contract will belong to whomever the thing is, and if the owner of the contract dies, it will belong to the only blood relative, and others have no right to inherit.

Even husbands have no rights unless the contractor has no children and no daughters.

"Miss Qingling, these things are indeed left by your mother, and your father spent a lot of ...... for the general's mansion back then."

"I don't care about the part I spent, I just need to give me what is still there."

The things of Shangshu Mansion have never belonged to the Lu family.

How the original owner's grandfather's family died, Lu Gengnian knew it.

Even his wife can be killed, and there is nothing he can't do.

Over the years, the General's Mansion has relied on the land deeds left by her mother, as well as shops and workshops, and has earned a lot of money.

The dowry of the eldest princess, the general's mansion naturally did not dare to use it, it was all rewarded by the emperor, they were born as civilians, and they were under the eyes of the Son of Heaven.

In ancient times, it was a shame for a man to use a woman's dowry to subsidize his family.

The old lady's face became worse and worse, seeing that she was talking to her in a good voice, this Lu Qingling still looked like she would not give up if she didn't get the dowry.

"Miss Qingling, grandmother is here to talk to you well, since your mother's death, everything you have spent in the General's Mansion."

"In the more than ten years you have lived in the General's Mansion, can't you still spend those silver?"

The old lady doesn't want to hand over these things now, those good land shops, the annual profit is very considerable.

Although Shangshufu didn't want his daughter to marry, he still gave a rich dowry.

On the other hand, it is the Lu family, and even the dowry is pieced together.

"What my grandmother said is that after my mother's death, everything my granddaughter used was not as good as all the slaves in the house, and even the clothes she wore during the New Year's holidays were also what she didn't wear."

"What is eaten is even leftovers from the people."

In winter, there is not even a trace of sparks, and for a month or two, I have never seen even the slightest bit of meat.

The more Lu Qingling said, the whiter the old lady's face became.

She knew all these things, and in order to welcome the eldest princess and the county lord into the palace, they had to do so.

Lu Qingling sneered, stared at the old lady with cold eyes, and said word by word: "Grandmother kept saying that my mother's dowry was used on me. ”

"Whose bracelet is my grandmother wearing?"

"Whose is the hairpin on my grandmother's head?"

"Even the jade coral ornaments in my grandmother's house were my mother's objects back then."

"My mother has been dead for so many years, and I wonder if my grandmother will have nightmares at night when she wears these things every day!"

Her eyes were cold like a demon out of hell, terrifying.

At that moment, the old lady seemed to see Yin Xue when she was still alive, and came to her with a pale face to ask for her life.

The old lady suddenly screamed in fright, and pointed at Lu Qingling with a trembling finger: "You, you want these things, I will return them to you, and I will return them to you!" ”

In the year Yin Xue died, a strange thing happened in the General's Mansion, but after many years, they had long forgotten it, but today Lu Qingling made her think about it again.

On a June day, it snowed fiercely, and the people of the house fell ill for three days in a row.

The bamboo mat wrapped in Yin Xue was thrown into the mass grave, and there was not even a monument.

The young Lu Qingling dug a pit in the pile of dead people with his bare hands and buried his mother.

This memory was engraved in Lu Qingling's mind, and she never forgot it, and she still remembered that the jewelry that she once wore on her mother was gone.

She died of illness, the old lady was so bad that she didn't even have a funeral, and the people from Shangshu Mansion came up to pick up her mother's body and were all turned away.

The eldest princess was high, and Shangshufu didn't dare to make a mistake, so she had to swallow her anger, and after many years, she realized that they had sloppily thrown their daughter's body in a mass grave.

The Shangshu Mansion family jointly played a concert, wanting to impeach the General's Mansion in front of Emperor Ruiqing, but they never thought that they would be charged with colluding with the enemy country, and they were beheaded.

All men, women and children, no one was spared.

Now as soon as Lu Qingling closes his eyes, all the souls of those unjustly killed in Shangshu Mansion are crying.

It's been five years, how many days and nights, and she's spent it in this nightmare.

Rao is that she has killed countless people, and she has never been so ruthless!

"These ...... It's all up to you! ”

"These are all left by your mother when she was alive, and you can take all the things that belong to your mother in this house!"

The old lady closed her eyes, as if she had been greatly frightened.
