Chapter 224: Not to be underestimated
Things are at an impasse.
At this moment, Wen Dahai walked out of the inner room next to him.
He replied: "Miss Wen has a medicinal powder that can make snakes riot, the villain has checked it, and at this time Huang Li brought something over." ”
"Little Liu?" Wen Guanbin was a little incredulous.
ruining Wen Qinglian's marriage is not good for the big house!
After being silent for a long time, Wen Guanbin was still unwilling to doubt Wen Qingfang in the end.
But Wen Dahai said: "Master, the villain has checked carefully, the cage brought by the Guo family has been deliberately dug open, and it is blocked with straw, if it weren't for those medicinal powders, the quinoa snake would not have rioted." ”
"The things that the Guo family brought over have always been in their hands?" Wen Guanbin asked again.
Wen Dahai nodded: "Yes." ”
Wen Guanbin was silent, and in this way, there were also people on the Guo family's side who were not satisfied with this marriage.
He looked at Guo Er and his wife coldly.
Mrs. Guo hurriedly explained: "Master Wen, it really wasn't us who did it!" We've all given so much silver! How could it be so bad that this thing could be destroyed! ”
"Where's Uncle Guo?" Wen Guanbin asked in a deep voice.
Mrs. Guo was speechless, and began to look left and right, refusing to answer positively.
Looking at Mrs. Guo like this, Wen Guanbin was annoyed and scolded: "This is what you say is foolproof!" ”
"Master Wen is angry, we don't know when the big house bought off the people on our side......" Mrs. Guo's explanation was useless.
At this moment, someone from outside came to spread the word.
The steward of the Guo family's big house has arrived.
Wen Guanbin had no choice but to get up to meet him.
It was an old man with gray hair and good spirits.
He first glanced at the kneeling person on the ground, and then deliberately glanced at Wen Qinglian, who was motionless.
"Lord Wen." The housekeeper was very polite.
Wen Guanbin hurriedly asked him to sit down: "The housekeeper sat down and said, sat down and said." ”
The housekeeper of the Guo family raised his hand and stopped: "No need! The master sent me over to tell Master Wen that this kiss will not be married today! ”
"How's that going to work!" Wen Guanbin immediately quit.
But the housekeeper sneered again and again, squinting at Guo Er and his wife next to him: "Master Wen, this family affair was decided when the old lady was alive, and our master didn't agree!" ”
Wen Guanbin's face turned blue and white for a while.
He naturally knew the inside story of the year.
In order to compete for more property, the second room of the Guo family took advantage of the old lady's confusion to say goodbye to the Guo family and grandchildren everywhere.
In the end, he and his wife should cooperate with the outside world, and decided on this family business, which fulfilled one of the old lady's wishes.
Soon after, the old lady died, and the second room of the Guo family began to tear their faces to fight for family property.
even took the Wen family and the Guo family's family affairs as an excuse to divide most of the Guo family's property.
But even so, the second room of the Guo family is getting more and more defeated, and the big house of the Guo family is getting better and better.
Originally, the Wen family was not satisfied, but later they relied on the Guo family's big house.
In order to be a bride price for the Guo family, which is attractive enough.
The housekeeper saw that Wen Guanbin was still a little self-aware, so he didn't tear his face: "Today's incident is considered that our Guo family is not kind, and the bridge will return to the bridge and the road will return to the road in the future!" ”
When Wen Qingzhu saw this, he had a good impression of the Guo family's big house.
It seems that the Guo family's big house is still trustworthy.
"No way!" Wen Guanbin still refused to agree.
The housekeeper smiled and said, "I know that Master Wen is unwilling to return the dowry." ”
was poked in the heart like this, of course Wen Guanbin would not admit it: "This is the promise made with Mrs. Guo back then!" ”
"But today, everyone in the capital knows how the Wen family treats the third lady, and they don't let the people in the big house of the Guo family come to greet them, but let the second room of the Guo family that has been separated come to greet them, and those who don't know think that the second master of the Guo family wants to take a concubine!"
These words were very polite, leaving Wen Guanbin speechless.
The housekeeper continued very unceremoniously: "If Master Wen is shameless, compared to Master Wen who is an official, what is the face of our Guo family?" I, Master Quanwen, still took out the marriage book of the year, and just broke it off separately. ”
Wen Guanbin's face was calm, and he didn't know how to respond at all.
At this time, Liu, who was full of tiredness, was helped out by Mama Du.
She walked to the side of the main seat, glanced at Wen Qingzhu, and then turned to Steward Guo and said, "The marriage book has been decided, even if the junior has not yet married, our Wen family will send it over!" ”
"Old Madam Wen!" Steward Guo's tone sank, thought for a while and said, "If the Wen family is willing to withdraw from the marriage, how about our Guo family only need you to return eighty percent of the dowry?" ”
As soon as these words came out, let alone Liu, Wen Guanbin was moved.
In this way, Wen Qinglian can be used again.
Wen Qingzhu immediately frowned and glanced at Wen Qinglian worriedly.
This housekeeper Guo gave her a good impression, if that Young Master Guo's illness can still be treated, Wen Qinglian can be regarded as finding a very suitable husband.
Soon, her fears came true.
Liu's thoughts are the same as Wen's, but she is more greedy.
"Only 20% back!"
Steward Guo frowned: "In this case, then Master Wen and Mrs. Wen, we'll see you in the yamen!" ”
Liu hurriedly shouted to him: "Wait! Isn't there room for bargaining? ”
Steward Guo looked at Liu with a sneer, but Liu didn't care at all, and said another number: "Retreat three percent." ”
"No! At least 70%! In the end, Steward Guo still wanted to withdraw from the marriage.
Wen Qingzhu next to him couldn't stand it, and couldn't help but hold his forehead.
Is Liu pretending to be lost by the big house and trying his best to loot it from elsewhere?
It's just that she glanced at it, and it happened to meet Jiang Yuancheng's pitiful gaze.
Wen Qingzhu immediately sneered, Jiang Yuancheng would still pity himself? Nuancai Literature Network
She turned her head and whispered to Fu Lie, "Let's go." ”
Jiang Yuancheng's eyes sank, why did Wen Qingzhu not like him so much!
Wen Qingzhu originally wanted to see how Wen Guanbin would investigate this matter, but now he bargained with the people of the Guo family.
She didn't feel the need to stay.
When he turned around and walked out, Wen Guanbin didn't stop him, he was more concerned about the Guo family's willingness to back down.
Just out of the gate of Fushoutang, Jiang Yuancheng followed.
"Qingzhu!"
Wen Qingzhu twisted his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Yuancheng unhappily: "Fifth Highness, the relationship between us is not so good?" ”
Who knew that Jiang Yuancheng said: "My father has already said that we will get married next year." ”
Wen Qingzhu's face sank.
Immediately, Jiang Yuancheng stared at Fu Lie unkindly: "Although my father has not yet given me a marriage, this matter is basically settled, you are the princess of this prince, you better not be too close to other men!" ”
This is a warning to Fu Lie.
Fu Lie's eyes sank, and he didn't back down by half a point.
Wen Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "It turns out that the Fifth Highness values me so much, in this case, I have a difficult matter here, can I trouble the Fifth Highness to help?" ”
"What's the matter?" Jiang Yuancheng was a little surprised.
Wen Qingzhu said with a smile: "How far is the trouble Your Highness, how far to go, it's best not to appear in front of me before getting married!" ”
After saying this, Wen Qingzhu turned around and left.
Jiang Yuancheng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he wanted to get up and follow, but was stopped by Fu Lie, who was staying: "Your Highness, please respect yourself!" Your marriage to Miss Wen hasn't come down yet! You don't have anything to do now! ”
Jiang Yuancheng calmed down and stared at Fu Lie's eyes: "Master Fu, I know that you are a celebrity in front of your father's eyes, but this matter can't change anything!" Unless you're also a prince! ”
Fu Lie chuckled unexpectedly, and Jiang Yuancheng, who was standing in front of him, felt a pressure.
"Fifth Highness, I know you are very confident, but things are man-made! Unless you can ascend the throne as emperor! Otherwise, you will never marry Qingzhu! Fu Lie said undoubtedly.
Jiang Yuancheng restrained himself and watched Fu Lie turn around and leave.
He knew that Fu Lie didn't come over today for Wen Qingzhu.
What task did his father give him Fu Lie!
When she arrived at the East Courtyard, Lei Shuo was already waiting for her.
Seeing Wen Qingzhu come back safe and sound, Lei Shuo was relieved.
"I heard that there was a poisonous snake at the wedding, so it's okay if you're okay."
"Of course it's fine, let's go inside." Wen Qingzhu took Lei Shuo's hand and walked towards the house.
At the same time, he looked behind him from the corner of his eye, and there were branches swaying in the bushes outside the yard.
When he arrived at the house, he retreated.
Wen Qingzhu then asked, "Sister Shuo, are you ready over there?" ”
"Well, it's ready." Lei Shuo looked at her worriedly, "I can guarantee that my side is fine, but once your side is discovered, it will be a big crime!" Not to mention ......"
Lei Shuo glanced at the direction of Fuyuan uneasily: "There shouldn't be a poisonous snake today." ”
Wen Qingzhu held her hand: "Sister Shuo, don't worry, it's okay, I will deal with this matter, and I have to trouble Sister Shuo for one more thing, I want to go to Fengguo Temple." ”
"What's the matter?" Lei Shuo nodded.
"I heard that Master Nine Lights is back, I want to see him, but he is easily gone, I wonder if you can help me arrange it?" Wen Qingzhu decided to take Wen Qingxin with him.
In these recent matters, Wen Qingxin is willing to cooperate.
But what she did was an uncertain factor.
Wen Qingzhu was very suspicious, she continued to cooperate with Wen Qingxin, and she would eventually fall behind.
At night, the Wen family finally quieted down.
Wen Qingzhu was sitting in the study reading a book, and Jasmine knocked on the door and came in.
"Miss, there is a result over there in Fushoutang. The Guo family finally agreed to return only forty percent of the dowry, and the third lady was locked up overnight. ”
"Well, the medicine prepared by the peony side, you send it to the third lady on time."
Jasmine nodded and stepped back.
The night was slightly cool, and Wen Qingzhu looked out the window.
The moon on August 16 is really round.
After a while, Wen Qingzhu coughed suddenly.
After a while, she took the hand covering her mouth away, and a layer of blood spread out of her palm.
She turned and walked over to the chair and sat down, if she had been bitten by a red-tailed snake today, she would most likely have been killed on the spot.
Wen Qingzhu's expression became serious, did Wen Qingxin mean it?
Seven days later, Wen Qingzhu slowly recuperated.
But this time the poison was really difficult, and Wen Qingzhu had to ask Xue Ren to bring a letter to Jiang Dejia.
She needed half a golden pill.
The one Fu Lie gave her, Wen Qingzhu did not regret giving it to Wen Qinglian.
At the end of August, Xue's Medical Center.
Wen Qingzhu sat behind the black cloth and quietly waited for Jiang Dejia's arrival.
Half an hour later, there was a noise outside the door.
Peony was surprised: "Miss, this is ......"
"It's my mother." Jiang Deyi's voice appeared outside, and Wen Qingzhu sat up straight.
She never thought that Concubine Hui would be out of the palace!
Peony led them up and sat down.
Wen Qingzhu sat up intently, waiting for Concubine Hui to speak.
Compared with Jiang Dejia, Concubine Hui can't be underestimated!
