Chapter 20: Breakfast (5)

Luo Jiachen couldn't listen to it anymore, the Marquis of Yongchang served in the Ministry of War, and Yu Lu was definitely not enough to support the huge Marquis of Yongchang, but the Ministry of War was originally a place of fertile water, even if he didn't make money from it, relying on his connections to develop some side businesses, it would be simple to make money.

This Mrs. Hou made it clear that she was a fool to deceive, the hairpin on her head, the jade bracelet on her hand, and the brocade she wore on her body were not bargains, if she really relied on Yongchang Hou's little money, would she dare to wear it so gorgeously?

But isn't this time more fake than anyone? Luo Jiachen naturally wouldn't debunk it, and said with an empathetic look: "Madame, I've never minded this, it's good enough to have food and clothing." ”

"You're a good boy." Mrs. Hou patted the back of Luo Jiachen's hand with relief, and said step by step: "Our house is living in poverty, originally I was still worried that you and Xuan Yu would get married, if we take out the dowry, there will be no dowry, and if we take out the dowry, there will be no dowry, and it will be difficult to say it, and it is not good to say, I am so dignified that the Hou Mansion of Yongchang treats the two children so harshly, and I can't sleep well all night." ”

I'm afraid you think that those things sent by Feng Lingxi can't sleep well all night, Luo Jiachen couldn't help but dislike it in his heart.

"Now, you have really grown up, and you have saved the son, the son of the world is the son-in-law of Prince Hong's mansion, and his life is so precious, I'm afraid he gave you a lot of things, right? Those things are not very safe in your yard, or they are safer in the storeroom of the house. ”

Mrs. Hou's smiling face, looking good for her, if she didn't know her, she would definitely be enlightened.

Luo Jiachen said with some embarrassment: "Huh? Ma'am, is this really good? ”

"You kid, aren't you worried that I'm coveting the things that the prince has given you? I'm afraid that you don't know how to use it indiscriminately, so you can store it in the treasury, and when you get married, you can also make your dowry, right? ”

Tao Ruan, who was on the side, listened to it and felt that her mother was really powerful, and her words were not leaky, and this little fool would definitely take the bait.

This little fool doesn't know what poetry and painting, I'm afraid Feng Lingxi is giving all the silver, right? There are two large boxes of 1,800 taels, and Rao is Yongchang Marquis Mansion can't take out so much cash at once. Anyway, as long as the things are in hand, this little fool will make Tao Xuanyu a girl in the future, and everyone will be happy!

But what Luo Jiachen said next surprised the mother and daughter.

"Madam, that box is full of dresses and shoes, and a few boxes of rouge gouache, can it really be kept as a dowry?"

"What?" Mrs. Hou was a little incredulous, and the smile on her face gradually froze.

Tao Ruan slapped the table and reprimanded: "Mother, I'll just say that this cheap hoof is not honest!" Didn't she buy a whole bunch of things yesterday? actually lied to you that you are all rouge gouache in dresses, the prince has only seen her a few times, how can she give her such a suitable dress for her figure? This must be a lie! ”

The mother and daughter only knew that the two of them had met in the Zhao Mansion that day, but they didn't know that because of the negligent management of her courtyard, Feng Lingxi had been here several times.

Mrs. Hou's face was not very good-looking, and she acquiesced to what Tao Ruan said, and looked straight at Luo Jiachen.

Luo Jiachen was very disdainful in his heart, but his face seemed to be frightened, he got up and hid behind Cuiyan, carefully poked out a small head, and said with a crying voice: "That box is indeed a dress, and the purchase was done by Sister Cuiyan, I don't know where the money came from......"
