Chapter 6 Dowry

The law of the Great Zhou Dynasty decreed that if the original wife died, if there were children, all their property belonged to their children, and had nothing to do with the husband's family, and if the children were young, they would be kept by the elders and handed over to them when they became adults. If there are no children, five tenths will go to the husband's family, and five tenths to the mother's family.

Ji Lu means adulthood, so it's time for the Xuanping Marquis Mansion to spit out her mother's things!

A trace of hatred flashed in Wei Yuxiao's eyes, what the Marquis of Xuanping owed to her mother, and what she owed her, she would take it back in the same way! The dowry is only the first, and there are ......

"But I was still in Yangzhou last year, so I didn't mention this matter, but now that I have returned home, this matter has to be mentioned."

Wei Yuxiao looked at the old lady and said, "Grandmother, madam, the dowry of my mother's relatives should be handed over to me." ”

She said it bluntly, without hiding it.

Clearly telling the old lady and the county lord of Qi'an that she wants her mother's dowry, this is not a request, but a notice. Her attitude had already told the old lady and the county lord of Qi'an that she had to get the dowry back, and there was no room for negotiation.

Wei Yuxiao's mother is the eldest queen of the Wang family of the Qilu clan, when the Wang family was prominent, when the eldest daughter was married, it was really a hundred miles of red makeup, and the prosperity at that time was not weaker than the marriage of the princess of a country, which has made countless women envious. And this marriage contract is also rumored to be a good story.

Wang Yue's dowry also made countless people blush, which naturally included this group of vampires in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion.

Back then, Wang Yue was a young lady with a prominent family background, and although Wei Jue was the Marquis of Xuanping, she was really small compared to the Wang family, and the marriage was not a good match. The Wang family is very opposed, but Wang Yue, who has always been smart, seems to have been poured ecstasy soup by Wei Jue, and he will not marry. In the end, the Wang family couldn't resist Wang Yue, so they could only let Wang Yue marry Wei Jue. However, the patriarch of the Wang clan at that time, who was also Wang Yue's father, was heartbroken by Wang Yue, and broke off the father-daughter relationship with Wang Yue when she got married.

But despite this, Wang Yue's dowry is still extremely large, and the royal father is reluctant to let his daughter suffer after all, so he privately made up a lot of dowry.

Wang Yue was married, just because of the ridiculous love, and in the end, because of her ridiculous love, the Wang family was buried, and she was also assassinated and died.

And Xuanping Hou Weiyu actually got the name of infatuation, it's ridiculous!

Wang Yue died when Wei Yuxiao was eleven years old, and Wei Yuxiao was sent to Yangzhou by his father and mother, and it has been five years. And Wang Yue's huge dowry also naturally fell into the hands of Xuanping Hou's group.

Therefore, the Xuanping Marquis Mansion can go from a low-end small marquis mansion to a behemoth among several top families in the capital in just ten years, and it is climbed up by stepping on the bones of the Wang family and Wang Yue and their dowry.

Now Wei Yuxiao's famous words to return Wang Yue's dowry are tantamount to cutting meat on them, how could the old lady and the county lord of Qi'an spit out the dowry so easily.

"You just returned home, this matter is not urgent, let me talk about it later."

The old lady shrugged her eyelids again, moved the Buddha beads in her hand, and wanted to block Wei Yuxiao's mouth in a few words, she called her mother-in-law over again, and instructed: "Dou Niang, go and bring a copy of the satin and jewelry that the concubine gave to the girls in the house a few days ago." ”

"Yes."

Dou Niang answered, and took someone to get something, and the oppressive air in the room seemed to flow again because of this.

"Sister Xiao, you are the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, and your every move represents the upbringing of the Hou Mansion. Over the years, you have been filial piety to your mother, and you have suffered hardship. But now that the filial piety period has been removed and it has returned, it is time to dress up well. At the age of flowers, wear brighter. The concubine gave her all the good things in the palace, and you took it to cut clothes, and the clothes in the future should be the same as your sister. ”

The old lady's words were for Wei Yuxiao, and also for the county lord of Qi'an.

Wei Yuxiao didn't eat the oil and salt, and he didn't let go of the dowry, and said: "Thank you grandmother for your kindness, Yuxiao will follow her grandmother's orders in the future." It's just that Yuxiao still has a question, I don't know when my grandmother said this 'let me talk about it later'? ”
