Chapter 56: The Study

Previous Chapter

Zhang's family is also a little old with Ye's family, so he was selected as Guan Ronghua's nurse.

When Guan Ronghua was driven to Zhuangzi, she couldn't do anything, so she had to hide this account book close to her and take it to Zhuangzi.

Guan Ronghua leaned lightly on the back of the chair, and said very generously, "Mother was also the head mother of the Guan family back then, and the Zhenguo Gong was thinner, and it was natural for the mother to use the dowry to supplement the family, I don't want this part of the dowry, and the Zhenguo Gong only needs to give me the rest." ā€

Guannian's face darkened at a visible rate.

In the Xia Kingdom, no matter what reason a woman marries a woman to supplement the family with a dowry, it is a manifestation of the incompetence of the husband's family.

Guan Ronghua seems to be generous, but he is actually slapping his old face!

"Since the words have been said so clearly, then the Duke of Zhenguo will quickly hand over the dowry of the first lady to Miss Guan, which can be regarded as allowing the first lady to be blind."

Mu Yinchen's deep voice sounded beside Guan Nian, forcing him to take out Ye's dowry as soon as possible.

The old lady wanted to say something, but Mu Yinchen had already spoken, so she had to be silent.

Guannian looked embarrassed and waved his hand at the housekeeper.

"Now that it's been explained, let's end it today."

The butler came over with a huge wooden box.

"The land deeds and land deeds brought by the Ye family, as well as the account books of these years, are all here, you can take them away."

Guan Nian said as he asked the housekeeper to open the wooden box, and a stack of contracts and ledgers was placed in front of Guan Ronghua.

"Why is there no silver and the rest of the dowry money earned over the years?"

Before Guan Ronghua could speak, Cui Die, who was standing on the side, touched the back of his head and asked his own questions.

Whose dowry is only the title deed shop, although the lady broke off the relationship with the Ye family back then, the dowry is also very rich, it is impossible not to have it.

What's more, these title deed shops will not make any money for so many years?

The Guanjia obviously wanted to swallow the money.

Cui Die thought like this, and couldn't help but despise the Guan family in her heart, fortunately, Miss and the Guan family had broken away from each other, otherwise they would not have been eaten to the point that there were no bones left.

"Presumptuous! How can you have a subordinate to speak here, today the old body will teach you what the rules are! Mama Zhou, slap your mouth! ā€

The old lady with a straight face instructed the grandmother beside her.

This Mama Zhou was the one who took Guan Ronghua to the courtyard of the old lady Guan that day, she rolled up her sleeves and walked towards Cui Die.

Cui Die's eyes widened, she just said the truth and was about to be slapped!

It was a pair of hands that suddenly grabbed her wrists.

Guan Ronghua pulled Cui Die's wrist and motioned her to retreat, and when she raised her eyes, her eyes changed to sharpness, "Cui Die's deed of sale was redeemed by me a few years ago, and I want to see who dares to touch me today." ā€

Her voice was cold and unfluctuating, but it made people can't help but be startled when they hear it.

Mama Zhou stood in the middle of the hall, not continuing to move forward or retreat, so she had to look at the old lady with begging eyes.

Old Lady Guan's eyes darkened, and she still had a loving smile on her face, "What is Sister Hua talking about, grandmother just wants Mama Zhou to help you set a good example for the people around you." ā€

Guan Ronghua chuckled, "I think Cui Die is very good, there is no need to set rules, even if you want to set rules, there is a nurse here, so you won't bother Mrs. Guan." ā€

Guan Ronghua took a bite of an old lady and forcibly drew a line with the Guan family.

"Zhen Guogong, as the maid said, Mrs. Xian's dowry should have been a lot over the years, and it is better for you to hand it over to Miss Guan than to have another entanglement in the future."

Mu Yinchen was like a god assisting, and continued to speak according to Cui Die's words.

After finishing speaking, Mu Yinchen still thought about it and added: "If the Duke of Zhenguo can't gather these Yingrun for a while, there are still some cash accounts in this palace, and you can lend them to the Duke of Zhenguo first." ā€

Guan Nian was shocked, and hurriedly arched his hand, "Thank you for the kindness of the six princes, that part of the ministers has already been prepared, but due to the urgency of time, they were not able to exchange all of them for silver tickets, and the amount was huge and inconvenient to carry, so Fang Cai did not let the housekeeper bring it in." ā€

After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Guan Ronghua, and tried to slow down his tone, "The dowry left to you by your mother has always been saved for you, but the time is pressing, and a large part of it has not been exchanged for silver tickets, in order to facilitate accounting, it is better to wait for a few days for this part of the silver to be exchanged for silver tickets and then send it to your residence." ā€

Guan Ronghua pulled his lips, "Zhenguo Gong doesn't have to be so troublesome, I have already asked people to bring an ox cart over, just load the cart and pull it away later, and don't bother Zhenguo Gong." ā€

Guan Ronghua had long thought that the Guan family would never spit out the silver in his mouth so easily, so he had already made various preparations for dealing with it.

Even if Mu Yinchen didn't come with her today, she could still let the Guan family spit out all of her mother's dowry.

The corners of Guannian's mouth twitched, and in the end, he really had no choice, so he had to wave his hand to the housekeeper, "Take them to the warehouse." ā€

The Guanjia has recently made various preparations to raise that part of the money.

It can be said that after Guan Ronghua took away all the Ye family's dowry, the huge Zhenguo Mansion was only an empty shell.

Hearing this, Guan Ronghua motioned for Zhang and Cui Die to follow, and at the same time, she looked at the row of family members standing outside the door.

She pursed her thin lips lightly: "How many of you are willing to help me carry the belongings left by my deceased mother to the carriage outside." ā€

She was met with silence.

The old lady smiled and didn't smile: "Sister Hua forgot, these are the subordinates of the Zhenguo Mansion, and outsiders can't call them, I think you should bring enough people to move the silver next time." ā€

Without the people who helped carry it, with the three people of Guan Ronghua, how much silver could be moved out.

"Can't be called?" There was a hint of banter in Guan Ronghua's eyes.

Guan Nian said in a deep voice: "The descendants of the Guan family have all signed a deed of sale, and they will only obey the orders of the Guan family. ā€

Guan Ronghua didn't reply, but hooked his lips and walked towards the door.

There were more than a dozen subordinates standing neatly outside the living room, and they all looked expressionless when they saw Guan Ronghua come out, as if they regarded her as air.

I saw her raise the sleeve of her right hand, and then took out a sloth of silver tickets from it, "If anyone can carry the relics of my deceased mother to the ox cart for me, each person will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver tickets." ā€

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the people around them changed.

One thousand taels, this is something they can't earn in the Guanjia family for several lifetimes.

Some of the subordinates were tempted.

Guan Ronghua noticed the eyes of these people, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, "The first three will also be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver tickets each." ā€

As soon as these words came out, the group of subordinates immediately swarmed over.

"I—I'm coming!"

"Miss Guan, choose me!"

The old lady almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood when she saw it, "What are you all doing, you have signed a deed of sale, do you want to rebel?" ā€

But they didn't want to, when they signed the deed of sale, their net worth was only a few dozen taels, and this more than a thousand taels was enough to redeem themselves more than a dozen times!

Guan Ronghua picked the first five people to come, gave five hundred taels to one of them, and then handed over the rest of the silver tickets to Zhang.

"You go to the warehouse with the nurse, and when everything is moved, the nurse will give you a silver ticket."

"Miss Xie Ronghua!"

The subordinates nodded their heads and thanked them, and followed Zhang to move things.

Guan Ronghua hooked his lips and sat back down.

Guan Nian looked at Guan Ronghua with a gloomy face, "That's very generous." ā€

Guan Ronghua smiled, "Zhenguo Gong praises falsely." ā€

These silver tickets were all taken from Guan Siyuan on the street that day, and they were not spent in vain!

Guan Nian was so blocked that he couldn't speak, so he simply got up and saluted Mu Yinchen, "Your Highness, now that the matter has been resolved, and the minister still has official business to do, he will retire first." ā€

The sixth prince is here to support Guan Ronghua's girl, and now that the dowry is all going back, he just makes himself even worse if he stays.

When he had finished his salute, he was ready to walk away.

"The town is slow and slow."

Guan Ronghua suddenly opened his mouth lightly, making the footsteps of Guan Nian about to start pause.

"There should be a lot of mother's relics in my mother's yard in the past, and I hope that the town will return them to me with a large number of them."

Guan Ronghua did not forget what he promised Mu Yinchen before.

Hearing this, Guan Nian's heart was full of fire, he turned his eyes to look at Guan Ronghua, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't go too far!" ā€

Guan Ronghua shrugged his shoulders with an innocent expression, "The things in my mother's yard that are estimated to be valuable have long been taken away by you, I just want to take away some things related to my mother as a thought, is there something wrong?" ā€

"Blood is thicker than water, it is really rare for Miss Guan to have such a heart for her deceased mother, Zhenguo Gong still agrees."

Mu Yinchen knocked on the side, not giving Guannian a chance to refuse.

Guannian was in an irritable mood, but he couldn't disobey Mu Yinchen's words, so he had to wave his hand impatiently, "Take it, take it yourself!" ā€

After saying that, he went straight away.

Seeing Guannian leaving, the old lady Guan returned to her courtyard after saluting Mu Yinchen.

"Your Highness, please!"

Guan Ronghua stretched out a hand to make a gesture of please.

Mu Yinchen bowed slightly, stood up and went to the Ye family's courtyard with Guan Ronghua.

At this time, two maids plucked up their courage and walked over, "Miss Ronghua, if there is anything you need our help with, just ask." ā€

Just now, it was 1,000 taels for each person to carry the silver, and now that the relics of the first lady are moved, how can there be hundreds of taels.

Guan Ronghua raised his eyebrows and glanced at the two, knowing what the two meant, and said politely: "No, thank you." ā€

Although the silver ticket was not hers, it still came out of her pocket in the end!

-

Guan Ronghua took Mu Yinchen and Dian Yi straight to the Ye family's former courtyard.

Ye's courtyard was originally in the middle of the inner house, but due to the promotion of Guannian's official rank, the mansion was expanded again and again, and her courtyard gradually became marginalized.

The location is not much better than what Guan Ronghua lived in before.

When the three of them arrived, they found that the lake in front of the courtyard had been filled with mud and some flowers had been planted.

The courtyard door was locked, and Dark One pulled out his sword to split the lock directly.

The gate that had fallen into disrepair creaked with the action of pushing the door darkly.

The courtyard is overgrown with weeds, how cold.

Ye is a very talented person, even after getting married, he will also split a study in the courtyard.

Guan Ronghua identified the next few doors, and after finding the study, "Let's go!" ā€

took Mu Yinchen and walked towards the study.
