Chapter 258: The dowry list is lost
In the following days, Li Tingxuan seemed to have really reformed herself. Every time I see Li Tingyu, I call out my big sister enthusiastically, and people who don't know may think that they are sisters of the same mother.
Before Li Tingyu caught her fox tail, he also followed her to play on the spot, and the two got along peacefully until the beginning of October.
The old lady was very satisfied with this, and in her eyes there was nothing more important than family harmony.
Li Tingyu sat bored in the courtyard, counting the time with her fingers, and in three days, she was going to marry Lu Ce.
The entire Pinglan Yuan is in full swing, but she is the only one who is very idle.
Jin Zi knew her embroidery, so she didn't let her embroider the wedding dress herself, and let her lock a gold wire edge even if she sewed it by hand.
"Miss, old lady, please take a trip." Xiangmei suddenly came to Pinglan Garden.
Li Tingyu listened and followed her.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the door, she saw the old lady with an embarrassed face, and a sense of foreboding rose in her heart.
What's going on here?
"What is grandmother looking for me?" Although Li Tingyu was curious, he still had a smile on his face.
"You're getting married in a few days, and my grandmother wants to talk to you." The old lady hesitated for a moment, not telling the truth.
After all, she really didn't know how to speak.
"If my grandmother can't bear me, then I won't marry." Li Tingyu winked at the old lady and joked.
The old lady was really taken aback when she heard this, and glared at Li Tingyu and said, "Pure nonsense." ”
"I can't bear my grandmother." Li Tingyu pulled the old lady's sleeve and said coquettishly.
The old lady smiled and said, "What an old person, still like a child." ”
The two talked about it for a while, but the old lady still didn't say the real purpose of calling Li Tingyu.
Li Tingxuan couldn't think of a reason for the old lady to find her, but she had maintained friendly contacts with Li Tingxuan these days, and she didn't do anything at all.
The old lady shouted a sigh, and then stopped talking.
Li Tingyu suddenly lifted her heart, here she comes, the old lady is going to tell her about business.
The old lady saw that Li Tingyu didn't say anything, but just looked at herself with innocent eyes, and suddenly didn't know how to continue.
An awkward atmosphere filled the air.
In the end, the old lady couldn't stand it and took the initiative to say everything.
"Your mother's dowry list has been lost, so I'll just add things from the treasury to your dowry when the time comes."
Lost?
She believes in this kind of rhetoric.
Li Tingyu looked at the old lady in surprise: "How could you lose it?" ”
The old lady was a little angry when she thought of her unsuccessful son and daughter-in-law. They actually put their hands into Yang's dowry and secretly sold a lot of things.
At this time, she didn't have that much money to get back. I had to lie and say that the dowry list was lost.
If you don't say it, when the Yang family comes to the door, it will be a shame and thrown at the gate of the imperial city.
"It's a long time ago, and my grandmother doesn't know where the list has gone. But don't worry, your grandmother will give it to you. The old lady patted her hand and promised.
Li Tingyu sneered in his heart, this is fooling her like a three-year-old child.
What list is lost, I'm afraid it's the things in the dowry that are lost.
"But my uncle told me that when the time comes, he will personally take care of A-Niang's dowry. At that time, my grandmother and uncle prepared all these things, and they said that now it is my turn to get married, and they will also prepare a dowry for me. Li Ting frowned, seemingly very embarrassed.
The old lady's brows almost furrowed into a hill when she heard this, she didn't expect that the Yang family would be so difficult, and she would actually send someone to count the dowry.
"That's good, one more dowry, and the General's Mansion can also think highly of you. It's just that this dowry list is lost...... "The old lady tried to deceive Li Tingyu first, coax her well, and then let her send those people from the Yang family.
"It doesn't matter if you lose the list, doesn't the government still have a record?" Li Tingyu looked at the old lady in a daze, as if he didn't understand why she was so entangled.
The old lady blushed when she heard this.
She didn't expect Li Tingyu to even know this.
"After so many years, I don't know if there is still one in the government." The old lady smiled awkwardly.
"The government doesn't have it, but my uncle has it." Li Tingyu seemed to have no intention, and stabbed the old lady in the chest again.
The old lady laughed and couldn't answer a word.
She barely lifted her spirits and chatted with Li Tingyu for a few words, and then let her leave.
The old lady knew that this time I was afraid that she couldn't simply fool the past, and the Yang family was not so easy to deceive. She was afraid that she would have to bleed a lot before she could seal the Yang family's mouth.
"Aunt Xiu, go and see what else is in my dowry." The old lady sighed and looked at Mama Xiu.
Mama Xiu wanted to say something, but she didn't speak, just nodded, took the key and went to the warehouse.
When Li Tingyu returned to Pinglan Garden, he wrote a letter to his uncle and asked Banxia to send it out.
In order to participate in her wedding, the Yang family arrived in Jindu early.
Because the old mansion had been transformed into a peach blossom paradise for Li Ting, they now bought another house nearby, so just a quarter of an hour later, Yang Chunlai received a letter from his niece.
"A letter from Ayu? Read it to me. As soon as the old lady of the Yang family heard that it was her granddaughter's letter, she immediately became calm.
Yang Chunlai and Yang Dongsheng glanced at each other, a little helpless.
"Okay, okay, I'll read it to you, you sit down, don't fall." Yang Chunlai helped his mother to sit on the chaise longue beside him, unfolded the letter, glanced at it, and his face was a little wrong.
"What's wrong?" Yang Dongsheng saw that his younger brother's face was not good, and asked.
"They actually said that Sister A's dowry list was lost and couldn't be found. Ridiculous, ridiculous! Yang Chunlai was so angry that he said several ridiculous words in a row.
Yang Dongsheng's face changed when he heard this.
At the beginning, they didn't get back their sister's dowry, just to leave it to their niece, but now they actually tell them that the dowry list was lost, isn't this thinking about what belongs to Ah Yan.
"What? Is it really that there is no one in the Yang family? Dare to touch what Asha left behind. When Mrs. Yang heard this, she was so angry that she was about to rush to the Li family to ask for an explanation, but the two brothers of the Yang family hurriedly grabbed her.
Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Yang looked at each other, they never thought that the Li family would be so shameless.
Even if it is a flat-headed common man, no family will embezzle the dowry of a daughter-in-law, this Li family is still the family of an official eunuch, and he actually did such a shameless thing.
"Stop me from doing anything! Their Li family is embarrassed to call themselves readers, me, all the sage books have been read into the dog's stomach. Mrs. Yang was so angry that she scolded.
She didn't expect that her daughter's dowry list could be lost, which clearly showed that they were bullying them to be a businessman's family.
If it is the daughter of a big official, will the Li family dare to do this?
