Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
Pei Xie Tang snorted, and after a long time, she couldn't help but wonder when she saw Xie Yijiang standing in place, not leaving, and not speaking: "Dad, what's wrong?" ”
Xie Yijiang's eyes fell on the furnishings in the house, compared to the main courtyard, compared to Xie Yiyi and the boudoir of writing Feifei, the layout of Manjiang Courtyard was really much more missing. His other two daughters have always been dressed in silk and satin, but when they looked at Pei Xie Tang in front of them, she was wearing fine linen coarse cloth clothes, and she didn't look like the daughters of rich and noble families. His heart tightened, and he clenched his fists: "Chengyin, how much silver do you take every month?" ”
Where did Pei Xie Tang know this, she had only woken up for a few days, but looking at the dress and food of the master and servant, she didn't think much.
She said honestly: "It doesn't seem to have any money, it's all in the basket." ”
Xie Yijiang was silent for a moment and said, "I'll go and tell your aunt in a while that you are also old, and it is time to return to you what your mother left you." ”
"What's that?" Pei Xie Tang was taken aback, she didn't know that Xie Chengyin's mother Qi still had something left for Xie Chengyin, which was being kept by the Fan family.
Why didn't the basket tell her before, if she knew, she would have taken it back.
However, when she had just woken up, when Fan took Xie Yiyi to the door to ask for a jade pendant, the basket said that the hosta was the only thing that the eldest lady left to Xie Chengyin, and she immediately felt a little strange in her heart, the eldest lady Qi only left her daughter a hosta, is it really poor like that? Now it's clear, it's Fan again, it turns out that she detained everything.
Xie Yijiang sighed: "Your mother's dowry, some field shops, and some later jewelry are all left for you as a dowry." ”
"Thank you, Dad." Pei Xie Tang nodded obediently.
As long as she can get it back from the Fan family, she will never give it up, not to mention, these are originally hers.
Xie Yijiang sat for a while, the estrangement between the father and daughter was indeed very deep, and there was nothing to say, so he stood up: "You have a good rest, I heard that the prince brought a lot of medicinal herbs and supplements, don't be reluctant to eat, if it's not enough, my father will let someone buy it for you." It is the right way to take care of your body first, and your martial arts and voice will improve. By the way, Qi Meng said, this yard is too damp and not suitable for recuperation, Dad will let you clean up the spacious Nanyuan for you in a while, you can move over. ”
"Yes." This is really a good thing from heaven, one after another benefits are smashed on Pei Xie Tang's head.
After Xie Yijiang left, the basket came over cautiously, and when she saw Pei Xie Tang blindly dazed, she knelt down: "Miss, you have finally come out." ”
As he spoke, his eyes turned red: "When Mrs. returns Miss's dowry, no matter who Miss marries in the future, she will no longer let her husband's family look down on her." ”
As he spoke, he told the story one by one.
Xie Yijiang's eldest wife, Xie Chengyin's deceased mother, is the daughter of Qi Qing, Qi Qing's wife is a merchant, and when her daughter married Xie Yijiang, she married a lot of fields and shops. In the past, the Qi family was still alive, and the income from these shops and fields was not counted in the Xie family's property, and it was the income of the main courtyard, which was very eye-catching. After Qi's death, Xie Chengyin was still young, and Xie Yijiang carried Fan as his mother, these things were originally not allowed to be touched by anyone, and Fan couldn't get them if he wanted to. Until Xie Chengyin fell ill, Fan took over everything under the pretext that Xie Chengyin was unwell and could not be managed.
Over time, it became the private treasury of the main courtyard, and it had nothing to do with Xie Chengyin.
These are all internal affairs of the house, Xie Yijiang doesn't care too much, the Fan family is more and more bold, and the Qi family's dowry is taken away from Manjiang Court little by little, and it has become the dowry that the Fan family prepared for his two daughters, if it weren't for the basket desperately kept, the original hosta would not be left.
Basket has always been worried that if the young lady can marry the Wen family smoothly, the lady will not prepare a dowry for her, and without the dowry, the young lady will definitely be looked down upon and have a hard time.
Now, the lord has finally asked!
Pei Xie Tang became more and more depressed when he heard this, he knew that the Fan family was not good to Xie Chengyin before, but now he knew that this could be summed up in two words.
"Basket, what are those things, do you know what they have?" Pei Xie Tang's eyes were shining.
The basket nodded: "The slaves and maids are all in mind." ”
Everything that Madame had stolen from Mademoiselle, even a silk thread, she remembered it so well that she could never forget it.
"Okay, when my father goes to tell the Fan family, we will immediately come to the door to ask for it, but everything that is taken from our yard will be brought back." Pei Xie Tang sneered: "They have occupied these things for too long, if they don't give them, we will even settle the interest." ”
The basket suddenly perked up: "Yes." ”
Xie Yijiang turned his head and went to tell the Fan family about it, the Fan family had just cleaned up Xie Chengyin, and he was feeling refreshed, and he was cold and took a thunderbolt, and his face turned white: "Master, what did you say?" ”
"I said, you can count all the things that the Qi family left for Chengyin and return them to her." Xie Yijiang's attitude towards her is no longer as kind as before.
Fan was very aggrieved: "Where is the thing left by Sister Mei, it has been used up to support the family over the years." ”
"!" Xie Yijiang really didn't believe her this time, and his face turned pale: "It's all used up?" Take the account book and I'll see how it runs out? There are no valuables in this mansion, where can I use so much? Not to mention anything else, the income and expenditure of the shops alone are completely enough for a year's expenses in the house, and even the human contacts are enough. Coupled with my money, why did I run out, do you think I'm so confused? ”
Seeing that he was angry, Fan Shi felt very empty, and snorted: "It's really ......"
"Take the book!" Xie Yijiang patted the table, where did the money go, he really wanted to see why the house was so poor that he couldn't even afford a new dress for his daughter.
As soon as he heard that Xie Yijiang wanted the account book, Fan panicked.
How many errors and omissions there are in her account book, she is clear in her heart, and immediately softened her tone: "Master, the account book is complicated, and the concubine is in charge, does the master not believe in the concubine?" The concubine has been with you for almost 20 years, and she is always heart-to-heart in the house, is it because of a few words that the lord suspects the concubine? ”
"You can just take it." Fan's words made Xie Yijiang soften slightly, but he still insisted.
Fan gritted his teeth, the account book can't be taken out, so let's pay back some things first.
She hurriedly said, "The mother-in-law in charge of the account book has gone out, and she will bring it to the master tomorrow." Wait until tomorrow when the concubine counts out Sister Mei's things, and it won't be too late for the master to look at it. ”
Hearing that she was willing to take it, Xie Yijiang breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't continue to ask, but said, "The things are counted and returned to Chengyin." Also, Chengyin's yard is really not good, you let people clean up Nanyuan, and I will let her move over. ”
Nanyuan?
It is one of the best courtyards in the house, spacious, ventilated, and the geographical location is the best in the whole house, her Yiyi has always wanted to live in it, but because the main courtyard is the place of the former Qi family, Xie Yijiang has never agreed, why did he suddenly give Xie Chengyin?
Fan was upset.
She wanted to say no, but she was afraid that Xie Yijiang would continue to argue to see the account book, so she had to say, "Yes." ”
As soon as Xie Yijiang left, the Fan family was so angry that he threw several things in the main courtyard. Xie Chengyin is really capable, and now he knows that Xie Yijiang is used to suppress her, can those things be taken away if they are said to be taken away? She had already sold some of them and replaced them with the dowry of her two daughters, and put them away little by little. Now let her spit it out, is it possible?
Soon, Xie Yiyi and Xie Feifei both knew about it, the two daughters were not good-looking, as soon as they entered the door, Xie Feifei shouted: "Mother, what is going on, Dad wants to give our dowry to Xie Chengyin?" ”
In her mind, those things went into her own pocket, and they were all her own.
Fan Shi had a cold face: "Yes, I don't know what means Xie Chengyin used, your father not only asked me to give her the dowry, but also gave Nanyuan to her." ”
"Mother, I don't!" Xie Feifei's face was distorted: "Those are mine, and when I marry in the future, I will take them to my husband's family." ”
"Mother, my daughter and Young Master Wen are about to get married, how can the dowry be less at this juncture? If she gets married at that time, her daughter's dowry is less than that of Young Master Wen's dowry, and the Wen family will definitely look down on her daughter. Originally, at the engagement banquet, the daughter made a fool, which made the Wen family unhappy, if even the dowry was very shabby, what would the Wen family think of their daughter! Xie Yiyi couldn't even laugh, what she was most worried about now was her marriage.
Fan said: "Yiyi, don't panic first, my mother didn't plan to really return it to Xie Chengyin." Your father wants it, let's make a show and give some symbolically. ”
"Xie Chengyin won't be willing." Xie Feifei said angrily: "That woman is a debt collector!" ”
Xie Yiyi agrees with this sentence very much, sooner rather than later, but when she is about to get married, she will take care of her mother and ask for things, isn't this against her?
"Mother, do you remember the clothes when Xie Yiyi went to Wen's house?" Xie Yiyi's eyes were deep.
Where will not remember, such a good-looking set, it looks very expensive.
Fan nodded, and Xie Yiyi continued: "Since Dad said that he wanted to give it, let's let Dad take back his life, and you will go to Dad in a while, and say ...... like that."
Fan Shi and Xie Feifei listened, and their eyes gradually lit up.
"My daughter still has a way, I'll go!" Fan's was overjoyed, and couldn't help but praise Xie Yiyi: "It's still Yiyi smart, in this way, she Xie Chengyin won't want to get anything, maybe, she can be beaten by the master!" ”
"If only I could kill her!" Xie Feifei added fuel to the fire and pushed Fan's family: "Mother, you can pretend to be like some later!" ”
She didn't believe it, this time, she couldn't die Xie Chengyin!
