Chapter 4: The Purpose Is The Dowry!
But Cui's not only didn't know about Entu, but even secretly hooked up with the master!
The most infuriating thing is that when her wife was pregnant, she secretly climbed onto the master's couch!
Afterwards, in the name of "love", he shamelessly relied on the Shen family to live or die, and made a concubine for the master.
Being a concubine for Aigan sounds so touching, but Begonia only feels disgusting.
Shen Lanxi patted Haitang's hand gently: "Heavenly Dao cycle, retribution is not happy." God gave them the opportunity, and let's start with the dowry and calculate the past accounts with them step by step. ”
...
In the middle of the month, the rain fell in a dripping manner.
The continuous spring rain is a few days at a time.
The rain passed, and as soon as the sky cleared, Cui's ordered the maid to come to Luomeiju and invite someone: "Big girl, Madame, please come over." ”
"Okay, wait for me to get dressed." Shen Lanxi calmly responded.
After changing clothes and dressing up, he went to the main courtyard with the maidservant.
"Ma'am." Shen Lanxi bent his knees slightly and saluted Cui's.
etiquette standards, but only "madam", not "mother".
The meaning of alienation is beyond words.
The corners of Cui's mouth froze for a moment, but a kind smile still appeared on his face: "Lan Xi sit down." ”
"I wonder what Madame called me?" Shen Lanxi lowered his eyes slightly, and his tone was decent.
Seeing her like this, Cui Shi couldn't help but have some confidence in her purpose, and all the polite words were skimmed away: "I specially called you over today, just to ask you, how have you thought about it these days?" ”
But Shen Lanxi's attitude was still unexpectedly resolute: "I won't enter the palace." ”
"Lan Xi, why are you doing this?" Cui Shi sighed lightly, "The painter in the palace will come to the Shen Mansion to make a portrait for you in a few days, and Qing'er's Geng post was also sent to the Chengnan Palace, if you change people at this moment, our Shen family will eat melons!" ”
Shen Lanxi smiled, this was threatening her with the Shen family.
But she didn't care about this family for a long time.
"Before my mother died, I promised her that I would choose a good person, bring the dowry she prepared for me, marry in style, and grow old with her." Shen Lanxi raised his eyes to look at Cui's, "Now, is Madam going to tell me to break my promise?" ”
Cui's heart jumped, but his thoughts did not focus on "promise", but focused on "marriage".
This girl doesn't want to marry, is she still thinking about marrying with the dowry that Shi left for her in the future?
Cui's eyes turned around on Shen Lanxi, and he changed his words with a smile: "Entering the palace is also an honor, and it can't be regarded as a breach of promise." ”
"But if I enter the palace, I can't get married, what should I do with the dowry that my mother prepared for me?"
Shen Lanxi thought, at this point, Cui should understand what she meant.
Sure enough, as soon as her voice fell, Cui's face trembled - it seems that she was wrong just now, what this stinky girl wants is not to marry in the scenery, but the dowry itself!
But if her daughter wants to marry into Chengnan Palace, this dowry is indispensable!
She couldn't possibly let it!
Cui Shi didn't speak for a while, and Shen Lanxi simply expressed his attitude again: "This is my aunt's deathbed wish, I can't be unfilial, even if it makes trouble in front of the Son of Heaven, I also have this answer, I hope Mrs. forgive me." ”
At this point, there is no room for manoeuvre.
The Cui family can't use any family glory to suppress her filial piety.
The two were silent for a moment.
The hall was covered with an eerie layer of tranquility, and the air seemed to freeze at this moment.
Fortunately, at this moment, Shen Junqing, who suddenly entered the room, broke the silence: "A-Niang, I made an appointment with Lingwei and them to go out to play today." ”
