Chapter 168 Sell Her Shop

Lan Mingde said to Mrs. Lan at that time: "How could I not understand these truths of my mother, if it weren't for the fact that the money can't be turned over at the moment, I wouldn't have such an idea. Jian Yu and Qingxuan got married, although he brought a lot of dowry gifts, but those dowries came over and went to the government to make a book, if he didn't agree, those things couldn't be moved. Lan Mansion also has a face in Qianyuan City, I am his father-in-law, where can I ask him for silver directly"

Old Madam Lan immediately understood that Lan Mingde was playing Jian Yu's idea of those dowries, because when Jian Yu and Lan Qingxuan gave the dowry on the day they got married, they brought someone to guard the dowry, and after the two entered the cave room, Yelan ignored the arrangements of the Lan Mansion steward and directly sent those dowry gifts to the Dream Pavilion.

At that time, the Li family disagreed, and felt that they should all be sent to the big house, Yelan only replied with one sentence: "The dowry brought by ordinary women to marry is at her own disposal, although the young master of my family is the son-in-law of the Lan Mansion, but he is only married to the second sister Lan, and these dowries can also be regarded as his dowry, and all these things can naturally only be controlled by him and the second sister Lan." ”

Yelan looked cold in the eyes of outsiders, at this time, the steward and the Li family were suppressed, and by the time they reacted, Yelan had already asked the guards dressed as porters to send all the things into the Dream Pavilion, thus breaking the idea of the Li family and Lan Mingde to fight those property, which was just the private property of Jian Yu and Lan Qing, and had nothing to do with the rest of the Lan Mansion.

In addition, after Jian Yu sat down, there were several more secret guards in the Dream Pavilion, and some people went to steal in the middle of the night and were directly thrown out by the secret guards.

The reason why Lan Mingde agreed to the marriage of Jian Yu and Lan Qingxuan was just for the sake of Jian Yu's family, he didn't really think about anything for Lan Qingxuan, all he thought about was how to get the most benefit from Jian Yu.

It's just that Jian Yu is quite respectful to Lan Mingde, and he has a lot of gifts on weekdays, but the money in his hand will not be easily given away one or two, and he refuses Lan Mingde's help very tactfully, but it completely breaks Lan Mingde's thoughts.

In the eyes of outsiders, Jian Yu is extremely generous to the Lan Mansion, nothing else, the night pearl alone is enough to make people look sideways.

It's just that although the night pearl is extremely precious, but because it is too precious, Jian Yu took it out with such sincerity, Lan Mingde can't eat it, can't sell it, and can't deserve it.

It is precisely because of this series of events that Lan Mingde is dissatisfied with Jian Yu again, and he is a person who wants to save face, and there is no way to go to Jian Yu to ask for silver, so he will come up with such a method.

He felt that Lan Qingxuan had already married Jian Yu anyway, so Jian Yu's things were Lan Qingxuan's, so when Lan Qingxuan didn't have those shops, if Jian Yu really liked Lan Qingxuan, she would definitely give some more shops to Lan Qingxuan.

He even felt that Lan Qingxuan, as the daughter of Lan Mansion, also had this obligation, as for how Jian Yu would look at Lan Qingxuan and whether Lan Qingxuan would be embarrassed, these were not in Lan Mingde's consideration.

Lan Mingde has been thinking about these things for a while, and he himself knows that the father-daughter relationship between him and Lan Qingxuan is not good, Lan Qingxuan's temperament is very similar to Qin Ruohuan back then, if he goes directly, Lan Qingxuan's ten ** will refuse, so he asked Mrs. Lan to find Lan Qingxuan.

Although Mrs. Lan looked at Lan Qingxuan differently and liked Lan Qingxuan very much, although she felt that Lan Mingde's request was a bit excessive, it was also reasonable.

The daughter of Lan Mansion, of course, must put the entire Lan Mansion first, and for the benefit of the entire Lan Mansion, it is also appropriate to sacrifice some appropriately.

It's just that Old Madam Lan still felt a little uncomfortable in Lan Qingxuan's bright eyes, so she said softly: "Since you have married a good husband, you naturally want to help your mother's family more, not to mention that you are still recruiting a son-in-law." ”

Lan Qingxuan heard it, the subtext of Mrs. Lan's old lady is that you are the daughter of the Lan Mansion, so you have to solve problems for the Lan Mansion, and you don't want to recruit a son-in-law, even if you really get married, you can't ignore the Lan Mansion.

Lan Qingxuan had long known that Mrs. Lan's kindness to her was based on the premise of not harming the interests of the Lan Mansion, and once there was a little conflict between her and the interests of the Lan Mansion, the old lady Lan would choose the interests of the Lan Mansion first.

It's just that even if she knew this, she felt a little chill in her heart, and she asked softly, "Is it my father's idea?"

Old Madam Lan didn't expect her to be so keen, and directly brought Lan Mingde out, and Old Madam Lan didn't intend to deceive Lan Qingxuan on these things, so she immediately nodded lightly and said, "I know that if these things come out at this time, you must feel a little uncomfortable in your heart, but if your father has no difficulties, he can't open this mouth." ”

Lan Qingxuan smiled coldly and said, "Grandmother has to be reasonable, but I don't know if grandmother can think about my feelings."

Old Madam Lan looked at her and said, "Jian Yu is your son-in-law, you all live in the Lan Mansion, if there is really anything, all the people in the Lan Mansion will support you, he can't bully you." ”

Lan Qingxuan's heart was a little colder, after she came to this world, she could see the faces of this large number of people in Lanfu very clearly, in their eyes, family affection is worthless, interests are the most important, these days, those people in Lanfu can line up to bully her, expecting them to support her, it is even more impossible than the sun rising in the west.

There was also a bit of coldness in her eyes, and she said softly: "After my mother's death, how my mother treated me, my grandmother also knew in her heart, I knew that my grandmother took good care of me, but there are always places that my grandmother can't take care of." ”

She said this a little tactfully, but the meaning was extremely clear, that is, no one in the Lan Mansion cared about her before, and how could she care about her in the future

Old Madam Lan's face suddenly couldn't pull down, and Lan Qingxuan said again: "I have also heard some old things about Lan Mansion before, before my mother married my father, Lan Mansion was just an ordinary merchant in Qianyuan City, and the money earned could only sustain the life of a large family. ”

Mrs. Lan's face was a little unsightly, and she shouted softly: "Miss Xuan"

"I don't mean anything else." Lan Qingxuan said faintly: "It's just that I didn't have a little silver at hand before, I'm afraid of those days, if I give all these shops to my father, then from now on I won't have any property in my hands, if I have to ask Jian Yu for silver for everything, I myself feel that I am not confident enough, after all, he is the son-in-law of Lan Mansion." ”

Mrs. Lan's complexion changed slightly, and there was a bit of hesitation in her eyes, but there were a little tears in Lan Qingxuan's eyes, and she sobbed softly: "I didn't have silver flowers in my own house before, how can I find someone with a different surname to ask for silver flowers."

Old Madam Lan said softly: "Words can't be like this"

"I know<=". Lan Qingxuan interrupted Mrs. Lan's words and said: "But please grandmother understand my mood and think about me for a thing or two, if my father takes away all these shops at this time, Jian Yu is afraid that he will still look down on me." It's just that he looks down on me, I'm afraid that he will also look down on the entire Lan Mansion, after all, in his opinion, the Lan Mansion is the richest man in Qianyuan City, if he can't even take out this silver, it will really be a joke. ”

Old Madam Lan let out a long sigh and said, "Listening to your tone, it seems that I don't want to help your father."

"It's not." Lan Qingxuan said softly: "I am very willing to help my father, at the moment these shops in my hands are very well managed, if there is anything on my father's side that I need to help with, I will definitely be obliged to help my father." ”

The meaning of her words is very clear, you don't want to take the shop, let me make some effort, but don't talk about taking the silver. And she also knew very well in her heart that although these people in the Lan Mansion had Qin Ruohuan's matter first, they looked down on women from the bottom of their hearts, and in their eyes, Lan Qingxuan was not a capable person, so it was impossible for Lan Qingxuan to help Lan Mingde.

Her attitude was so resolute, it was a bit unexpected for Old Madam Lan.

Old Madam Lan's eyes were full of unhappiness, and she said lightly: "I used to think you were a sensible person, but now I find out that you are so confused, Miss Xuan, if something really happens to the Lan Mansion, and Jian Yu bullies you at that time, I am afraid that no one will support you." ”

Lan Qingxuan smiled faintly and said, "Grandmother, do you remember my original intention of recruiting a son-in-law?"

Old Madam Lan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and Lan Qingxuan said softly: "Grandmother, do you remember your original intention of bringing these shops back from my mother's hands for me before?"

Old Madam Lan's face was a little uncomfortable, and Lan Qingxuan said faintly: "For men, after Gu Ranmo's matter, I was originally disheartened, Jian Yu treats me very well now, but we have already made an agreement at the beginning of our marriage, I don't ask about his affairs, and he doesn't ask about my affairs." If one day he doesn't want me, at least I still have those shops by my side. ”

She also came up with Gu Ranmo's matter at this time, and Old Madam Lan also felt that today's proposal might be a bit excessive, but she and Lan Mingde also had the same idea in her heart at this time.

After all, she was still a little unhappy in her heart, and then waved her hand and said: "Those shops are yours after all, if you insist on refusing me, there is no other way, today is the seventh day of August, and it is time to make autumn clothes, I heard that you have a shop is a silk village, and the things in it are very good, you go with me to pick out some fabrics and come back."

Lan Qingxuan didn't expect Mrs. Lan's topic to change so quickly, and she was going to her shop to pick up fabrics at this time, she couldn't help but have a bad premonition in her heart, but she had already rejected Mrs. Lan once, and she really couldn't refuse anymore at this time, so she nodded lightly at the moment.

Mrs. Lan asked Mother Ying to prepare the carriage, and then took Lan Qingxuan and walked out, before she walked out of the door, she saw Li waiting outside, she saw Mrs. Lan and said softly: "Mother, if it starts to get cold today, it is time to make autumn clothes, I don't know when you are free, go out and pick up some fabrics to come back to make autumn clothes." ”

According to the previous rules of the Lan Mansion, at the beginning of August every year, Mrs. Lan would make autumn clothes for the people in the house, and Mrs. Lan had always felt that the Li family was not quite in line with her in choosing clothes, so she would pick them out in person every year.

Lan Qingxuan glanced at Li after hearing Li's words, Li lowered her head slightly, not having the slightly smug look she used to have, as if Lan Ruoxuan's incident had hit her hard and had knocked her down.
