When Xu Yuru heard the chaos in her brain, she said in her heart: "Master, you really know how to come up with ideas, this stupid kid just has no brains, and he really has to remember his dowry, and he fell for the master's plan to sow discord." ”

Xu Yuru scolded Nangong Qingrou and said, "Qingrou! How can you be so ignorant, do you want to make matters worse at this time? ”

"Mother! I'm not, but I can't marry into the palace like this! Can you bear to watch me be looked down upon by your subordinates? ”

"Yes! Master! You said that this child is like this once in his life, doesn't even the prince of Duan look down on us Qingrou when he marries into the palace like this? People are dowry gifts according to the etiquette of the concubine, so we can't lose face in the Prime Minister's Mansion! ”

"Then you are not afraid of losing the face of Nianxi, she is a concubine, she also wants face, so let's give this large share to Nianxi, and a small share to Qingrou, if you can't see it, you can fill it yourself, but it must not exceed Nianxi's dowry, if you let me know that you stole the beam and changed the pillar, and wronged Nianxi, don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes."

After finishing speaking, he sorted out the gift list on the table, handed it to Nangong Nianxi, threw a small gift list to Xu Yuru, and said: "Qingrou!" Don't complain about your father's partiality, this is all your mother's own assertions, playing clever, if your mother hurts, you will prepare a dowry for you. All right! I still have to take care of business, so go out and rest early! ”

After speaking, he straightened his waist, shook his spirits, picked up the official document and bowed his head to do things.

Nangong Nianxi Shili said: "Daddy! Rest early! After that, he walked out first.

Nangong Qingrou watched him walk out of the door, and quickly chased after her, blocking her way, Shi Yu saw it and wanted to step forward to stop it, Nangong Nianxi waved her hand, she stopped and waited on the side.

"Nangong misses the past! You are really powerful, you took away my dowry without saying a word, I really underestimate you, a dog that can't bark, it's really not easy to bite people? ”

"Nangong Qingrou! Speak with respect, only if you learn to respect others first, others will respect you. Why can't you hold your breath and don't accept it? If you don't accept it, go find your rich mother! Mine is left to me by my mother, and your mother left private money, she is patriarchal, and she will not give you money for gambling secretly to your brother. ”

"Nangong misses the past! Don't talk nonsense! What are you egging Qingrou on? Xu Yuru hurriedly stepped forward to separate the two.

Nangong Nianxi always smiled and said: "Erniang! When did you tell the truth to your second sister, and you squandered all the money you had secretly withheld from the Prime Minister's Mansion over the years to your son, and there was not much money left in your hand? He asked you for money that day, but you were angry and didn't give it, and he actually got my idea and found a bunch of ruffians to kidnap me, is he acting like a big brother? has no money to repay his debts and was beaten up like this, is the old man opening his eyes? ”

Nangong Nianxi continued: "Second sister, even if your mother doesn't have any cash in her hand, doesn't she still have a dowry for the shop?" If you don't give it to you, I'll give you that big brother who is a loser, and now he can't get out of bed, it's hard to say in the future! You will take the little dowry in your hand and not be compared to Liu Qianqian! Ay! ”

After speaking, she sighed, feeling sorry for her, Nangong Qingrou was also shocked when she heard it, the eldest brother actually did such a thing, he didn't know, the most important thing now is his dowry, the quarrel is secondary, and then don't entangle with Nangong Nianxi.

He turned around and asked, "Mother!" Did the eldest brother really kidnap the eldest sister? Why didn't you tell me that you don't have a lot of money? What about money? Is there really none? Nangong Qingrou questioned her mother.

"Nangong misses the past! Don't provoke the feelings of our mother and daughter, if you get the dowry you deserve, hurry back to your Youlan Courtyard, and what are you still standing here to show off? ”

"It's not me showing off! It was your daughter who stopped me and didn't let me go back, I didn't want to say these words, after all, he was my eldest brother, everyone lived under the same roof, and I couldn't look up and see him. But then again, this big brother only lost half a star in gambling, where did your money go, second aunt, I really wonder? ”

"That's it! Just take it, don't worry about being so careful about getting into trouble? ”

"Is the second aunt referring to something? Did I really encounter something bad when I went out today? Second aunt guess, what's the matter? ”

"Didn't you come back safely when something bad happened? It's really a good person who doesn't live long, and the scourge lives for a thousand years, let's go! Don't ramble here. Xu Yuru urged impatiently.

"No! Can't let her go, make it clear? What does it mean that money doesn't know where it goes, and what does it have to do with you? ”

Nangong Nian wanted to leave, but when she heard that Xu Yuru was in a hurry to get rid of her, she simply deliberately didn't leave, and continued: "I mean that your mother deducted the silver in the house, except for your eldest brother, I don't know where the rest of the silver went?" Enough to understand? Now that your daughter is married, she is reluctant to take it out, and the second sister seems to be far inferior to your eldest brother. ”

"Nangong misses the past! That's enough! You're not leaving, are you? Qingrou, let's go! Xu Yuru pulled Nangong Qingrou and said as she walked: "Qingrou's!" Is it good to have a long snack, she is deliberately angry with us again! ”

Nangong Nianxi watched their mother and daughter drift away, and was in a very good mood, without saying a word, he asked for the dowry he deserved, and thanks to his father, with the silver he earned in the hot pot city, Nangong Nianxi's heart blossomed, if this is in modern times, isn't she a millionaire.

I was so happy that I even walked much more briskly. When I returned to Youlan Courtyard, I unexpectedly saw Ming Haoxuan sitting in his room, only to see him with a gloomy face, drinking tea cup by cup, and it seemed that he had been here for a long time.

Besides, Nangong Qingrou was dragged back to her yard by her mother, dismissed the maid and mother-in-law, and closed the door, Nangong Qingrou couldn't help it, and began to ask: "Mother! Is that little slut telling the truth? Did the eldest brother really do the kidnapping? ”

Xu Yuru nodded lightly and said, "Isn't your eldest brother also forced to do so?" ”

"I'm not talking about this, I'm saying that the eldest brother was beaten, will it be the little slut who is looking for someone to do it."

"No, it won't! Your eldest brother also came back with an injury, saying that the matter ended here, I inquired, the gang that beat your eldest brother was a casino, your eldest brother lost too much and had no money to pay back, and people couldn't bear to move. ”

"Then that little slut is really fateful, so let her run away?"

"Who's to say it isn't? Your uncle specially found a martial arts master to deal with her, and this time she must go and never return. ”

"Uncle! Mother, did you give them all the money, what are you asking them to do, it costs so much money! Nangong Qingrou said anxiously.

"Qingrou! I can tell you anything, but this thing can't be done, I spend money to eliminate disasters, and then you will know, as long as you marry into the palace peacefully, you don't care about anything, don't listen to the gossip of outsiders, you know? ”

"Mother! I know! But what about the dowry here! ”

"It's okay! My mother must find a way to marry into the palace in a beautiful manner, and she must be no worse than that Liu Qianqian. After speaking, he comforted his daughter.

As soon as Nangong Qingrou heard that the dowry was made up, she was no longer depressed, and said with a smile: "It's still my mother who loves me the most!" After saying that, he jumped behind her happily and put his hands around her neck and coquettishly.

"Alright, alright! I can't breathe, how many times have I told you, marry into the palace, don't be happy, let people see through your mind, be calm, sophisticated, and know how to guess your man's mind. ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Mother, I want to sleep with you, you are teaching me, I forgot ......"

Xu Yuru helplessly stroked her arm and said: Okay! If your brother doesn't let me worry, forget it, Qingrou! In the future, it's up to you, remember whether you can gain a firm foothold in the palace, it's up to you to work hard. ”

Nangong Nianxi sat down and watched Ming Haoxuan on the opposite side drink tea cup after cup, Nangong Nianxi looked at it for a while, grabbed the teapot, and couldn't help asking: "Just say something, see that you have drunk so much tea, and you are not afraid to get up at night." ”

Ming Haoxuan's teapot was snatched away, and he couldn't drink the tea, so he stopped and said, "Xi'er!" If the person who wants to harm you is your relative, what should I do? ”

Nangong Nianxi smiled slightly and said, "Are you talking about Xu Yuru looking for someone to kidnap you?" Ming Haoxuan's eyes lit up and asked: How do you know it's her? I'm here after I went back to the palace for interrogation, and no one knows the result, how did I guess it? ”

"I wasn't called by my father to go to the study to talk about things just now, she was also there, when I went out, I tested her, she sent someone to do it, but I'm not sure, I heard you ask, it's confirmed!"

"My former son, don't be so smart, I don't have any secrets to discuss with you. So knowing that she is the one who wants to harm you, I said that I will not let her go easily if she harms you, but after all, she is your family, and you are not even willing to punish your eldest brother, I am really entangled, and I don't know how to punish his mother. Ming Haoxuan frowned and thought bitterly.

Nangong Nianxi touched his forehead, smoothed his wrinkles and said, "Xuan! Thank you! Shi Yu said that in the past, you were decisive in killing and was a prince with a strange temper, but after meeting me, you became less violent, and you were a good prince who was approachable and won the hearts of the people, so I thought, I can't let you make the current approachable you for my sake and turn back to the murderous you used to be, okay? ”

"Xi'er! You are too smart and too kind, if you let her go, she will not accept your affection, but this is what you want to see, I promise you, let her go this time, next time if she is moving your little move, I will not let her go. Ming Haoxuan said with a serious face.

"Yes! The next time she dares to touch me, I'll be the first to spare him. Okay, don't be serious, I like the way you smile, come and give my sister a smile! Nangong Nianxi teased him in order to bring about the depressing atmosphere.

Ming Haoxuan heard her teasing herself, pretending to be expressionless, and said in her heart: "Little girl! Okay, the scar forgot the pain, and dared to tease me to my face, and forgot how to punish you, right? ”

He deliberately said indifferently: "Xi'er! Say it again! ”

Nangong Nianxi really thought that his ridicule didn't work, and said honestly: "Come on!" Give my sister a smile, and my sister likes the way you laugh! ”
