Chapter 45: Spit it out
Lan Qingxuan said with a smile: "Since my mother doesn't have this plan, then please give my mother back the things to me, my mother needs to return it to me when I am fifteen years old, and now that I am seventeen years old, I won't bother my mother."
Li's heart was in a hurry, if she returned the money to Lan Qingxuan, then her dowry to Lan Yufang would be greatly discounted, and if she didn't return the money to Lan Qingxuan at this time, she would definitely make Mrs. Lan dissatisfied. οΌ)#.
She thought for a while and said, "I store all the things that my sister left behind, if Xuan'er wants it, I'll find someone to count it first." β
She thought about it, but she could only drag Lan Qingxuan first, and it was best to delay it until Lan Yufang's wedding, and then she would find a way to get Lan Qingxuan to the Gu Mansion, so that this matter could be over.
Lan Qingxuan saw that her eyes were full of depth, and she knew that she must be playing some bad idea, her eyes were full of light smiles: "Grandmother, my mother is busy on weekdays, I'm afraid she won't have time to count those things, I have seen the list left by my mother, there are a total of thirteen shops, a number of jewelry and jewelry, and 50,000 taels of silver, silver and shops do not need to be counted, just give it to me directly, jewelry and jewelry should be stored in a box, and my mother does not need to count, just give me the box." β
She said this a little naΓ―vely, and her eyes were full of faint smiles.
Originally, the Li family was just a prevarication, if Mrs. Lan was not here at this time, she could still find some excuses, but Mrs. Lan was here at this time, and her excuses were useless in front of Mrs. Lan.
She coughed lightly and said: "You pay it back after all, it's not safe to take so much money in your hands, and those shops are extremely troublesome to take care of, you are just a daughter who is raised in the deep boudoir, after all, you can't show your head, I'll take care of this matter for you."
Lan Qingxuan looked at Li and said, "Mother will count the troubles for a while, and then I will not be safe with the silver, and it is not appropriate to take care of the shop, so my mother should not want to return my mother's things."
After she finished saying this, she took Mrs. Lan's hand and said, "Grandmother, I am already seventeen years old, and the normal parents of daughters will marry at the age of fifteen, so they will learn to take care of housework and take charge of the middle feed, these things can be done now." β
How could Old Madam Lan not know what the Li family was planning, she nodded and said: "Yes, Miss Xuan has grown up, those things are left to her by Ruohuan, she can't take care of it and lose in her hands, that's also her business, I think Ruohuan won't have an opinion, and those jewelry will not be too troublesome to count, so okay, you can return these things to Miss Xuan within three days."
As soon as Mrs. Lan spoke, Li's face finally changed, and she spread her hands and said: "Mother has also taken care of Zhongfang, the business of Lanfu has not been as good as before over the years, I have a lot of difficulty taking care of these housework, and the matter of silver money is also a little powerless, and then Brother Xuan is also going to discuss marriage, Fang'er is about to get married, and you need money everywhere, it is really laborious for me to take out so much silver at once, it is better to give it to Xuan'er later."
Old Madam Lan's brows furrowed slightly: "Didn't Mingde prepare the money before Brother Xuan'er's marriage, Fang Yatou and Gu Fu's marriage don't need to be too anxious, even if it is decided, just send the dowry prepared for Xuan Yatou before, there is no need to prepare other things, Lan Mansion has indeed been inferior to before over the years, but it has not reached your step, if you don't want people to want to be greedy for what Ruohuan left behind, then this matter is decided." #.β
Li didn't expect Mrs. Lan's attitude to be so decisive, and she was extremely unhappy in her heart, but she could only accept it at this time.
This matter was settled, and Li had to obey no matter how unwilling he was.
After Lan Qingxuan left, the Li family stayed, and Old Madam Lan frowned and said, "Is there anything else?"
"Mother, I want to marry your Fang'er." Li said softly.
Old Madam Lan glanced at the Li family and said: "The good daughter you taught, after doing such an ugly thing, her marriage is not good, either marry Gu Ranmo, or go to the temple to be a sister-in-law, Gu Ranmo's character is inferior, in my opinion, she is better than marrying Gu Ranmo in the temple." β
Li's heart suddenly sudden, and he said hurriedly: "Mother, if this is the case, even if Fang'er ruins Gu Ranmo's life in this life, she will only do such a thing, I think Gu Fu has such a good foundation, and Fang'er will not suffer if she marries in the past." β
Old Madam Lan sneered and said, "I'm afraid that he is not only obsessed with that matter."
Mrs. Lan's words meant something, and Li wiped a handful of tears and said: "I know that my mother is complaining that Fang'er robbed Gu Ranmo, but at this point, no matter how much we have to do it, Fang'er is pregnant, and her marriage cannot be delayed any longer." β
Old Madam Lan sighed, glanced at the Li family and said: "That's all my words, Ruohuan had such a great favor to the Gu Mansion back then, and they could all treat the girl like this, which shows what kind of people the Gu Mansion family is." Fang girl did such a thing, and that incident happened some time ago, do you think she would be good to her if she married Gu Fu and Gu Ranmo, he offended the eldest princess, and the eldest princess could ruin him with a word, and a person like him is really not a good person. β
Old Madam Lan's words were relatively pertinent, but the Li family couldn't listen to them anymore.
She said softly: "I don't agree too much with my mother's words, no matter what, Gu Ranmo is the first champion in Qianyuan City for so many years, if he doesn't have the ability, where can he win the champion, he offended the eldest princess this time, it's all because of Xuan'er, Xuan'er now has some opinions about me, but she respects her mother the most, so I want to ask my mother to persuade Xuan'er, let her go to the eldest princess Gu Ranmo's good words, Gu Ranmo is good, Fang'er is good, Fang'er is good, and she will naturally take Xuan'er a hand." β
Old Madam Lan let out a long sigh and said: "It's you who are sorry for Miss Xuan first, and now that something like this has happened, you still want to beg her to help you, I can't pull off my old face in this matter, ask her to beg her yourself."
Li cried and said: "Mother, doesn't you care about Fang'er, Xuan'er is your granddaughter, Fang'er is also your granddaughter, you can't be too partial."
Mrs. Lan was a little troubled by her quarrel, she rubbed her temples and said: "To the eccentricity, who can compare to you, I will pull the old face and Xuan'er in this matter, as for whether she can listen to it or not, I don't know, you knew today, why bother in the first place"
Li Shi collected his tears and said softly: "I will definitely love Xuan'er in the future, mother, and Fang'er's marriage."
"She's your daughter, and you can just worry about her marriage." Old Madam Lan said impatiently.
Li Shi said again: "Fang'er is pregnant and remarried, I'm afraid that she won't be able to raise her head in the Gu Mansion if she marries like this, so I want to add some more dowry, I don't know what my mother wants."
Old Madam Lan knew her thoughts, but she was a little irritable in her heart, and frowned at the moment: "How much do you want to add?"
"I want to add another 10,000 taels of silver, a pair of heads, ten pieces of brocade, and a few other things to Xuan'er's dowry, what does my mother think?" asked Lee.
Old Madam Lan frowned when she heard this, and said, "How much dowry will the Gu Mansion give to Miss Fang?"
"I heard what Mrs. Gu meant in addition to the three animals, there are three thousand taels of silver, a set of heads, and the most important thing is that forty-nine silver rabbits of different shapes will be added, Fang'er is a rabbit, and Gu Fu is very attentive<=". Li said with a smile.
When Mrs. Lan heard that the Gu Mansion only gave this dowry, but the Li family was happy to be like this, she really didn't know what to do as an elder.
She sighed lightly and said: "Ten thousand taels of silver is a little more, at most another five thousand taels of silver, if you want Xuan Yatou to go to the eldest princess Gu Ranmo's good words, then you can't do too much and make her feel uncomfortable." β
Li Shi felt a wall in her heart when she heard this, although she never cared about Lan Qingxuan's thoughts, but Mrs. Lan's words also made sense, she had to say at the moment: "Okay, everything will be up to my mother." β
She has this in her mouth, but she has other plans in her heart, the five thousand taels of silver came out of the mansion of the Lan Mansion, and she has also saved some private money over the years, but when the time comes, it will be really not good, so she will add it all.
It's just that it can't reach the amount she promised to Mrs. Gu before, and she feels that she also needs to communicate with Mrs. Gu about this matter, after all, Gu Ranmo's current career needs to be dealt with by the Lan Mansion, so there is still room for negotiation in this matter.
Mrs. Lan was also a little annoyed when she saw Li's appearance, and immediately waved her hand to let Li go down, and after Li left, she leaned on the big chair and was a little helpless.
After Lan Qingxuan returned to the Dream Pavilion, she sorted out today's events again, and she was secretly surprised by the Li family's methods, according to the Li family's temperament, she would definitely not let her go easily.
Qiu Yue saw her worries and said softly: "Second sister don't worry too much, there is an old lady to help the second sister in everything, and the lady doesn't dare not return the things that the eldest lady left for the second sister before." β
Lan Qingxuan nodded and asked, "Mother's mind is too heavy, how eccentric she is, you can also see that my current situation is too passive, but there is no better way at the moment." β
Qiu Yue said: "I have a good relationship with the second-class maid in my wife's room, or I can hear some news from her, but she is a little greedy for money, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to do things if she does not have money." β
Lan Qingxuan has the 20,000 taels of silver that Jian Yu gave her, as well as the silver that Mrs. Lan gave her before, if the Li family returns the silver to her, then she is very loose at hand, and Jian Yu's silver will be returned to him after all, and she still has 50,000 taels.
If the few shops left by Qin Ruohuan are well run in the future, then she will have endless silver.
Things that can be solved with silver are really not called things now.
Lan Qingxuan looked at Qiu Yue and said, "You can arrange the warm things, and you don't have to worry about the silver things." β
Qiu Yue nodded, and at this time, the porter came in and said, "Tilting poetry is back, I want to see the second sister." β
After Lan Qingxuan mentioned the matter of the poem to the eldest princess that day, she originally thought that it would take a few days for the eldest princess to deal with it, but she didn't expect to redeem the poem so soon, her heart was full of warmth, and she said busily: "Bring the poem in."
The porter responded, and the return of the poem made a lot of waves in the Lan Mansion, how the poem left the Lan Mansion that day, all the people in the house knew, and everyone originally thought that the poem would die this time, but they didn't expect that not only did they not die, but they came back
Who will get the poem back, everyone knows when they think about it.
Since Lan Qingxuan came back from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, a lot of things have happened around Lan Qingxuan in the Lan Mansion, although those things are a little surprising, but they don't take it too seriously
