Chapter 153: Zheng's Fool

Seeing the old lady, Xiao Zheng euphemistically put forward the request of the Twelfth Niang, and said with a smile, "In addition, the daughter-in-law remembers that the old lady said that your treasures are left to your grandchildren, and now our Twelve Niang is also going to get married, she is a daughter's family, and she is embarrassed to open her mouth to ask for a dowry, so I have to stretch out my hand to the old lady with the cheekiness of being a mother."

"Okay, you're a monkey, it's obvious that you're a clever ghost who wants to get my baby, but you just took the Twelve Niang as a disguise," the old lady really likes Xiao Zheng's daughter-in-law, and after listening to her words, she laughed, poked a finger on Xiao Zheng's smooth forehead, spitted, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, although these treasures of mine are reserved for my grandchildren, but look at you who ran to me and begged, I will naturally give you a copy." ”

As she spoke, the old lady turned her head to look at the Zheng family who was waiting on the other side, and said, "Are the dowries of the twelve mothers ready?" Later, you and the third lady will take Twelve Niang to have a look, and by the way, open my warehouse again, and let Twelve Niang choose two things by herself. ”

"Yes, old lady"

Although he didn't know the purpose of Xiao Zheng's move, Zheng, who had always been cautious, quietly cheered up and prepared to meet the challenge of the mother and daughter of the third room.

"Old lady, I heard that there are many treasures in your storehouse, and your daughter-in-law has always wanted to see them with her own eyes, so that she can take advantage of the old lady's light to see for a long time. Why don't you take advantage of the dowry for the twelve mothers, and let the daughter-in-law follow the sister-in-law and younger siblings to open her eyes? ”

The second wife, Li, who had been cowering in the corner, heard that everyone was talking so lively, and she unexpectedly ran out to have fun.

"Okay, let's go and see."

Although she didn't like Li's daughter-in-law, in front of so many people, the old lady couldn't directly sweep Li's face, so she had to nod lightly and agreed.

"Oh, twelfth sister, my sister really envy you, not only the uncle and mother buy you a dowry, but also the old lady adds a box to you, what a blessing."

Seeing that the atmosphere was so harmonious, Wu Niang couldn't help but walk forward and joke with a smile.

"Sister~~"

Twelve Niang was a little embarrassed by Wu Niang, lowered her head and blushed, and protested in a low voice.

"Okay, Wu Niang, don't be greedy, I, as a grandmother, have always been a bowl of water, since I gave it to Twelve Niang, I will naturally give it to you. In this way, you also follow the three wives, and whichever treasure you like is just returned to the eldest wife, it can be regarded as a grandmother's reward for you."

The old lady has long been concerned about the affairs of the family, but she has been operating in the Wang family for decades, and she still has a lot of contacts and eyeliner, and she still knows a lot about Wu Niang's life in the Wang family in the past two years.

Originally, she liked this straightforward granddaughter very much, but then that ugly thing happened, which made the old lady very annoyed, and secretly hated Wu Niang for being ignorant and living up to her love in vain.

However, seven or eight years have passed, and no matter how big the resentment is, it should be dispersed after seeing the embarrassment of the granddaughter's lost soul.

knows that Wu Niang's life is hard, but the old lady is not good at helping her openly, after all, the Wang family is staring at dozens of pairs of eyes up and down, even if it is eccentric, it can't be too much.

It just so happened that the dowry was mentioned by Twelve Niang today, and the old lady thought of taking the opportunity to reward Wu Niang with some self-esteem, which could be regarded as subsidizing her family.

"It's still the old lady who loves me"

Wu Niang listened to the old lady's feigned anger, and a warm current suddenly surged in her heart, her eyes were sour, and she said with a slight chok.

"Hehe, okay, don't drop the golden beans, they're all mothers, and they're not sensible at all. While I haven't changed my mind, you guys hurry up, it's late, I regret it, but I won't give any of it."

When the old lady saw that her granddaughter understood her intentions, she also felt a little emotional, and hurriedly waved her hand to send everyone in the house out.

After everyone went out with Zheng and Xiao Zheng in their arms, a grandmother beside the old lady reminded, "Old lady, since you forgave Wu Niang and rewarded her with jewelry, Qi Niang ...... there."

A bowl of water is flat, Wu Niang's life is not satisfactory, and Qi Niang's situation is not good.

"Qi Niang?" The old lady paused, and then slowly shook her head, "Alas, this child is indeed pitiful, but, but who let her die badly, I am old, and I can't live for a few years, so let's ask for peace." ”

Qi Niang's mother and brother are not nonsense from outside, back then, Master Jinguang outside the city told Qi Niang's fate, saying that her life was too hard. Jin Yu's mother has been killed, and Jin Yu was also harmed by this sister to smallpox, and she almost couldn't survive.

The old lady has been prosperous and rich all her life, and although she has not lived for a few years, no one wants to die so soon.

She really didn't want to joke with her life.

The old lady touched the Buddhist beads on the kang table, closed her eyes and counted them one by one, and told the woman with actions that the topic of Qi Niang was over here, and she was not allowed to mention it again

The eldest lady and the second wife held hands and walked to the warehouse together affectionately, and behind them, the third wife held the arm of the twelfth mother, and the mother and daughter did not speak, but followed slowly with their own hearts.

When she arrived at the warehouse, the eldest lady nodded to her personal maid, only to see the girl take out a large set of keys from her sleeve pocket, and after finding the key to the warehouse, she walked to the door in a few steps and opened the big lock of the warehouse.

The two rough envoys who were waiting on the side saw that the door was open, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the two heavy doors. By this time, it was almost noon, and the golden sunlight poured in through the open door, adding a lot of light to the closed storeroom.

"Hehe, come, Twelve Niang, these are the dowries prepared for you, see if you are still satisfied, if the color is not right, or not satisfactory, just tell the eldest aunt, I will change it for you"

Hmph, if you want to see the dowry, you clearly say that you want to see it, but you are afraid that the embroidery color of the ornaments will not match, which will make the in-laws laugh. Hey, that's the reason?

Who doesn't know, Xiao Zheng's family has long been blind to the fact that he holds the power of the Wang family's housekeeper, and now he just wants to borrow the dowry of the Twelfth Niang to say something.

After hearing Xiao Zheng's relay of Twelve Niang's request just now, the Zheng family secretly despised the hypocrisy of the third room. I secretly reminded in my heart that I must keep an eye on Xiao Zheng and Twelve Niang later, so as not to let them catch any tricks.

"Thank you, aunt, for making you bother more for the sake of Little Twelve."

Twelve Niang was already a little dazzled when she saw such a treasure in the warehouse. It's just that when she followed Zheng's hand and saw the small piece that belonged to her, she was inevitably a little lost, and said in a somewhat reluctant tone.

"Oh, this Jin Guanyin is so familiar, is it a birthday gift given to the old lady by Princess Qi last year?"

Zheng Shi stared at Xiao Zheng and Twelve Niang, but he didn't guard against the second wife behind him, he only heard her praise, and before everyone could turn around, he heard a 'clang' sound, as if some porcelain had been broken.

"Ah, why did you kick this white porcelain vase to pieces? Oh my God, this is an antiquity from the previous dynasty, and it is a good thing to burn in a serious official kiln. ”

The eldest lady followed the prestige, and saw the second wife's miserable white face, staring blankly at the white porcelain fragments at her feet in a daze, and blurted out the words of reprimand.

"Sister-in-law, I, I didn't mean to, I just looked at the golden Guanyin familiarly, and I wanted to get closer to the good students to take a closer look, and I didn't pay attention to my feet for a while...... Sister-in-law, brother and sister, you believe me, I really didn't mean to"

The second wife was cut off by the eldest lady, her face became more and more ugly with fright, and her two hands pointed to the debris on the ground with some trembling hands, and explained pitifully.

"Do you know what kind of baby you're kicking? Kindness? This bottle is the last batch of porcelain from the official kiln of the previous dynasty, and there are no more than ten of them left in the world today, and it was broken by one of you 'not intentionally'? ”

The eldest lady walked up to the white porcelain fragment in a few steps, touched the largest fragment, and reprimanded loudly in distress.

"I, I ......" The second lady was a little embarrassed by the eldest lady's reprimand in public, her small eyes rolled around, and suddenly, her wandering gaze fell on the porcelain piece in the eldest lady's hand, and she snatched the fragment, "Wait, sister-in-law, you said this is the white porcelain from the official kiln of the previous dynasty?" ”

"yes, it's a priceless treasure."

"Heh~~" The second wife carefully took the piece of porcelain and looked at it for a long time, and finally sneered, "Sister-in-law really likes to joke, although our Li family is not a famous family, but there are also a few treasures in the family, including the white porcelain of the official kiln of the previous dynasty, and I have also heard the elders of the family say that the white porcelain fired by this official kiln, in addition to the seal printed at the bottom of the bottle, the inner bottom of the bottle also has the name of the firing master." ”

Speaking of this, the second wife raised the broken porcelain piece in her hand, pointed to the inside of the delicate bottle bottom and said, "Sister-in-law, brother and sister, please see, there is nothing in this, it is obviously an imitation."

"Imitation, imitation?" When the eldest lady heard this, she shouted in a sharp voice as if she had been stung by something, "You, what nonsense are you talking about, this is the heirloom of our Wang family, do you mean that our ancestors were deceived and couldn't hide the worthless imitations of the world as antiques?" ”

"Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, don't worry, whether this vase is real or fake, let those who know know it know at a glance." The third wife saw that the eldest wife and the second wife were in conflict, so she hurriedly ordered someone to close the door of the warehouse, so as not to let the next person see the joke.

But when the mother-in-law was about to close the door, Wang Yufang held her hand stained with gold dust and shouted, "Ah, how can this Guanyin return its color, could it be that it is not red gold, but has been painted with gold paint?" ”

When the eldest lady heard this, her whole body was stunned, and her face became extremely ugly.

When the masters and subordinates in the storehouse heard this, they all quieted down, and the atmosphere in the room was calm and almost solidified.

The people outside the door heard the voices in the house and talked quietly.

If the eldest lady questioned the words of the ancestors, then Wang Yufang's words make people think about it: Jin Guanyin is fake, but this Jin Guanyin was sent by the dignified Princess Qi, does it mean that Princess Qi sent a fake?

Just kidding, what is the identity of Princess Qi, how can she send fakes.

In this way, does it prove that this Jin Guanyin has been dropped?

But Jin Guanyin has been locked in the treasury, and the key to the treasury is only available to the eldest lady, that is to say
