Chapter Two Hundred and One: Dowry

The corners of Mu Qing's mouth twitched: "What's wrong?" ”

It's okay now, the excitement of other people's homes hasn't been seen yet, so it's your turn to be your own house first.

"Mu Chenghe and Mu Dezhi went to gamble for money, and they were designed, and they are chasing the Mu family for money at this time."

Bai Lichen is quite concerned about this matter, mainly because he knows Mu Qing's heart.

Mu Qing is really interested, after all, when the time comes to find him, these people may not be able to pester her.

"How much do you owe?" Mu Qing asked cautiously.

"Not much." Bai Lichen saw that Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and silently added, "It's more than 100,000 taels ......."

"How much?" Mu Qing jumped up from Bai Lichen's lap, and his voice was raised a lot.

More than 100,000 taels! Not much? It's not worth so much money to sell her princess, right?

Bai Lichen stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms again: "What are you excited about, it's not the money you owe." ”

"But...... My dad wouldn't have indulged them, would he? Mu Qing is still a little unsure.

Her scumbag father is not a corrupt official, it is estimated that he is a little greedy, but there should be no big ones, and it is not easy to come up with more than 100,000 taels.

Bai Lichen was silent, and Mu Qing understood, it is estimated that her scumbag father will pay eighty percent.

Think about it, after all, it's his younger brother, it's strange that the imperial history doesn't participate in him.

Besides, there is a Tang family, and Mu Chenghai should have a sense of guilt for not being filial to the Tang family.

Mu Qing didn't know much about the Mu family's property, so he could only ask the almighty Bai Lichen: "Does he have so much money?" ”

"Don't underestimate your father, Liu's dowry is a lot, your mother's original dowry is more, not to mention others, your mother's marrying shop doesn't know how much money it has earned over the years." A faint smile appeared at the corner of Bai Lichen's mouth.

There was silence in the study for a while, and for a long time Mu Qingcai asked, "Do you want me to get back my mother's original dowry?" ”

It turned out to be for this for a long time.

When Mu Qing first got married, her marriage was very shabby, and the Liu family deliberately wanted her to not be able to raise her head in the Three Princes' Mansion.

Besides, she is not a fool, she was already moved by so many dowries in the evening.

"It was originally yours, didn't you have a headache how to open a shop all over the country? Here's your chance. Bai Lichen hugged Mu Qing's hand and increased his strength.

Mu Qing is really moved, not to mention that she is short of money now, it is not easy for her to open a shop.

This kind of newly opened shop is easy to attract attention and cause trouble, and she simply doesn't have that much energy to do it.

There are a lot of shops in Wan Lianyu's dowry, and these shops can help her a lot.

"I'll go find my grandfather tomorrow!" Mu Qing is not clear about these dowries, thinking about it, it is best to find a late master.

Bai Lichen smiled and didn't answer, and the two of them talked for a while before going back to sleep.

Bailichen was going to the court the next day, so Mu Qing went to the evening house alone and explained the marriage to the late master.

The late master actually wanted to mention this matter for a long time, but he always thought about whether there would be a suspicion of provoking the conflict between their father and daughter, so he never said it.

Now that Mu Qing took the initiative to talk about it, he was relieved.

"What about your original dowry list?" The late old man asked.

Mu Qing hurriedly handed over the prepared list, and the evening master looked at it, his face instantly became gloomy, and then he took out a thick stack of lists from the drawer and gave it to Mu Qing:

"Look at it, this is your mother's original dowry."

Mu Qing was prepared early in the morning, but he was still confused at first glance.

Every thing in this is worth a lot of money, from food and clothing to the shop, Mu Qing was dazzled, and he began to figure it out again.

Isn't it fragrant for her, a cheap girl, to have so much money to live by herself? Why marry a scumbag!

"If you want to get married, I'll accompany you today."

The late master didn't care about this bit of marriage, but he didn't want the Mu family to take advantage of this.

Mu Qing nodded, with so much money, it can't be cheaper for the Mu family.

Counting the time, he felt that Mu Chenghai was about to go to court, so the late master called his eldest son Wan Chen, and brought a lot of family members to the Mu family with great momentum.

Naturally, many people pointed at the road, and Mu Qing was still immersed in her mother's sky-high dowry, and she didn't care about these at all.

The person who greeted them was Liu's family, Liu's face at this time was not to mention how ugly it was, the evening family was the one she hated the most!

Who let the late family have a late pity!

Mu Qing looked at the Liu family, well, he was thin again, and he was haggard again, and it seemed that he was tossed enough by the Tang family.

After drinking tea, Liu Shi looked at Mu Qing and squeezed out a motherly smile:

"Qing'er, is there something going on? Your grandfather is coming, you should have told us in advance. ”

Mu Qing opened his mouth to say, but the late master spoke first: "I heard that the old lady of your mansion also came to Beijing?" ”

Liu nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I'm here in Beijing." ”

The old man nodded as he drank tea: "Yes." ”

There was no follow-up, and the Liu family thought that the late master would propose to visit him, but he didn't expect it to be like this......

Mu Qing lowered his head, but his shoulders shrugged, Tang Clan was probably still waiting for them to meet them in Deshou Hall at this time.

After a while, Mu Chenghai came back from the next court, followed by Bailichen.

"Father-in-law, what are you ......" Mu Chenghai looked at so many family members, and he couldn't tell what the late master wanted to do for a while.

At this time, it was not the time for the juniors to interject, Mu Qing and Bai Lichen sat silently in the corner drinking tea.

The late master gave him a look, and Wan Chen stepped forward and took out two lists:

"This is Qing'er's dowry, this is my sister's dowry, Lord Mu take a look, we came to the door this time to get my sister's dowry back, it stands to reason that after my sister dies, these dowries should be Qing'er's, this is no problem, right?"

The husband's family cannot interfere in the woman's dowry, and these dowries are to be left to her biological children after death, and if there are no biological children, the mother's family can go back.

Mu Chenghai was like being struck by lightning, and the corners of his mouth moved when he looked at the two-point dowry list, and finally did not speak.

The Liu family is a little anxious, Wan Lianyu's dowry is a good thing, she is going to leave it to her daughter, how can she return it!

Seeing that Mu Chenghai didn't speak, Liu stepped forward to explain:

"Late master, these dowries were used a lot for the prime minister at the beginning, but now they are ......"

Everyone knows in their hearts that this matter has indeed been used a lot for Mu Chenghai to get some official career, but this can't be said on the surface!

The corners of Mu Qing's mouth hooked up a smile, and he lowered his voice and asked Bai Lichen: "You say, when will my grandmother come out?" ”

"It's coming." Bai Lichen turned his head slightly, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

"What?" Wanchen glared at Mu Chenghai and Liu, "Use my sister's dowry?" What to do? Could it be to take care of my sister's life? What a joke! ”

Only then did Liu realize that he had said the wrong thing, Mu Chenghai glared at Liu, and stepped forward to arch his hand:

"Father-in-law, eldest brother, Lianyu had a lot of dowry at the beginning, and it takes a lot of time to count it now......"

"It's okay, we've brought someone!" Wan Chen smiled as he spoke, and said meaningfully:

"If you don't like me to bring enough people, I will call another one or two hundred people, and ask you to count it yourself, I'm afraid I don't know when it will be, Qing'er has been married for so long, you look at you, you haven't counted it yet, so it can be seen that we still need help."

When Mu Chenghai heard this, his face turned blue and white for a while, Mu Qing almost wanted to applaud Wanchen when he heard it, it was too powerful!

"Yes, yes, yes." Mu Chenghai stiffly pulled out a smile, "Then go and open the warehouse to clear ......"

"What kind of storehouse!" The Tang clan was helped over by Tang Yu at this time, and Mu Chenghe also followed behind him to watch the excitement.

Tang Shi had a hideous face at this time, and he was not polite to the late master at all:

"Wan Lianyu married into our Mu family, that is the Mu family! Naturally, the dowry should also be our Mu family, do you still want to go back? Phew! Do your daydreaming! ”

Mu Chenghai stepped forward to help Tang sit down, and persuaded him in a low voice, but Tang shook Mu Chenghai away:

"Get out! You stupid person who can't stand up! How long has it been since Wan Lianyu died, and you are still ......"

Tang's scolding was very ugly, and the evening master's face became ugly when he heard it, and he slapped the table one last time, and the hall suddenly became quiet:

"If you want to quarrel, go to the yamen to quarrel! Mu Chenghai, you make up your own mind. ”

Wan Chen also smiled coldly: "Relying on the identity of an elder to scold the street here, when the people of our late family are so bullied?"

If it weren't for my sister who fell in love with Mu Chenghai, I'd be sorry! As far as your Mu family is so poor that the thatched houses are leaky, will my sister marry your family?

Do you really put gold on your Mu family's face? Don't look in the mirror to see what your wooden family looks like!

My sister married into your Mu family, and your Mu family began to dress and eat, calling slaves and maids, do you think it was your poor scholar's son who gave it to you? Do you have that face? ”

Except for the Tang family, everyone else in the Mu family was a little embarrassed, this is really the truth, the Mu family was really poor at the beginning.

"Poof-" Mu Qing couldn't help laughing, she found that her uncle was really powerful, a good hand at scaring people!

is worthy of being in business, and it is estimated that there is usually a lot of verbal battles with people.

"What are you laughing at?" Tang only saw Mu Qing at this time, and he immediately became angry,

"Something that doesn't have rules! This attitude when you see the elders? Did you provoke these people to come and make trouble? You girl who eats inside and out, I knew that I should have drowned you in the pit when you were born......"

"Enough!" Mu Chenghai couldn't help it, and called Mu Chenghe with anger, "Hurry up and bring my mother back!" ”

Mu Chenghe shrank: "Big brother, I don't have that ability." ”

Mu Chenghai was so angry that he could only call Tang Yu: "Help your aunt and grandmother go back!" ”

Tang Yu only had Bai Lichen in his eyes, and when he heard Mu Chenghai's words, he reluctantly persuaded: "Grandmother, let's go back." ”

"Don't threaten me Yu'er! Something, want to get something from my house, tell you, don't think about it! Tang glared at Mu Qing as if he were looking at an enemy.

Bai Lichen narrowed his eyes: "Stare again, believe it or not, gouge out your eyeballs?" ”

Tang Shi was startled, but he was a little weak for a while, and Bai Lichen's cold glance was too scary.

"Mu Chenghai, are you going to give this dowry today?"
