Seeing that his attitude was so resolute, the old lady Du and the eldest master both buried their heads in tea, leaving the second master to stammer to deal with Shen Yao.

"How?" Shen Yao's slender fingers tapped on the teacup, and looked at the second master with a smile, "Can you estimate when it will be cleaned up?" ”

"Grandpa Guo," the second master opened his mouth with difficulty, "Now that the New Year is coming, the family is busy with the New Year's Festival, how can there be time to be busy with this...... I'll have to wait for the New Year's ......."

"Okay!" Shen Yao put down the teacup heavily and said with a smile, "Then I will come to the door on the first day of February!" ”

The second old man glanced at the eldest brother in a panic, and when he saw that he had been drinking tea with his head down, he was dead, and said, "I am afraid that I can start busy with this matter after the first month...... Otherwise, during the New Year's Festival, the next generation will not be busy......"

Shen Yao was about to get up and go out, and when he heard this, he smiled at him and said, "Why don't I leave the two teams of troops at the door to the second master as helpers?" ”

The second master was so panicked that he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "How dare you work for all the military masters!" ”

"That's no shortage of manpower!" Shen Yao snorted coldly, walked up to Du Mingxin and ordered, "You are so born at home for the New Year, I will come to see you in a while." ”

Du Mingxin responded and sent Shen Yao out. He was just about to step out of the threshold, turned back again, took the two dowry books, didn't look at the Du family, and Du Mingxin sent him to the door, rode a high-headed horse, and left.

The Du family in the main room looked at each other, all very depressed. Seeing a mouthful of fat meat delivered to his mouth, he didn't eat it, and he made a fuss.

Du Min hesitated to get up and said goodbye to Mrs. Du: "...... After living at home for so long, it's time to go back and have a look. I'll come back to see my mother on the second day of the new year. ”

The second master stepped in front of her and said anxiously: "The Shen family's dowry has not yet been discussed, how can you go!" ”

Du Min has not been afraid of him since he was a child, and when he saw him stopping him, he was also anxious: "Second brother, you are so unreasonable!" How can there be any matter of the mother's family, and the matter of the aunt and grandmother intervening? If so, shouldn't I be given a share of the money from the rent of the Grange and the money earned from the shop every year? ”

The eldest lady had already thought very clearly at this time, even if she didn't make up the Shen family's dowry as it was, I was afraid that she would have to make up for it, and Shen Yao would stop. If Du Min is let go at this time, who will go to the jewelry that she looted?

She smiled: "There is something wrong with what my sister-in-law said. If you talk about the rules, you have been messed up in the early years. Think about it, is there a sister-in-law in this world who died, and the sister-in-law panicked forward and parted her clothes? If you shouldn't take it, just return it. ”

Du Min looked at the eldest brother who didn't say a word, the second brother who was anxious and red-eyed, and the sister-in-law who didn't smile, and knelt in front of Mrs. Du with a "poof".

"Mother, they're trying to kill me!" The tears that burst out of his eyes were not fake, Du Min thought that he might have to fill the hole of seven or eight thousand taels of silver, and he was so anxious that he had a handful of snot and tears. "I married into the Tao family, what kind of life I lived, you know best! At the beginning, the jewelry of the second sister-in-law was used as some exchange expenses. The rest are all called your son-in-law to give gifts to Shangfeng, how can there be wow! ”

Mrs. Du was irritable in her heart, she said back then that the Shen family was a mourning star, and now she has been dead for ten years, and her family is still restless!

At this time, Du Mingxin sent Shen Yao back, and was about to give the elders their lives, when he saw the scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping in the house.

"Sister Heart!" Du Min saw Du Ming's heart as if he had seen a life-saving Bodhisattva, got up and ran to her, held hands and cried, "You can save your aunt!" Your uncle and aunt forced me to pay you for the dowry, how can you say there is such a truth in the world? You go and talk to your uncle, whether the dowry is more or less, whether you marry your in-laws, can you still compete for the Ningbo Mansion? ”

Du Mingxin shook off her hand and said calmly: "Auntie, although I was still young, I saw those things with my own eyes. ”

Du Min cried so hard that he couldn't help asking, "What did you see?" ”

"How did my mother die?" Du Mingxin said word by word, "I heard what you and Aunt Liu told her." And how you two divide up your mother's relics, I have heard them all. Since God has sent my uncle to administer justice to my mother, I think that whether it is my aunt or Aunt Liu, everyone involved in it should atone for what they did back then. ”

Expiation? Atonement for what sins? Seeing that she was so disrespectful and respectful, Mrs. Du was furious, and a teacup was thrown over and shattered at Du Mingxin's feet. "What are you? Dare to speak like this in front of your elders? Kneel down in the ancestral hall! ”

Du Mingxin didn't say anything more, just squatted down and saluted, and went to the ancestral hall.

"Mother!" The eldest lord was so anxious that he stomped his feet, it was all at this time, and he still provoked Du Ming's heart to do something!

The eldest lady gently tugged at his sleeve and advised him to calm down. After all, if someone sings white face, they can sing that loving red face.

Seeing that it was useless to beg Du Mingxin, Du Min suddenly sat down on the ground and muttered: "Why are you targeting me alone, and I am not the only one who did those things...... There is also Aunt Liu, she has taken care of her second brother's industry for so many years, and when she returned to the capital to reward her subordinates, she is an aunt, where did she get so much money? ”

"You get up for me!" Mrs. Du looked like she hated iron but not steel, "Go and call Liu's for me!" If you don't see her for a few years, she will be exhausted! ”

The people who were waiting in the house all went out, and the eldest lady opened the curtain and went out to recruit a little girl to call Aunt Liu. In the side room, Lu and a few girls were still waiting inside. Seeing the eldest lady come out, she hurriedly went over and asked, "Mother, is it okay inside?" ”

The eldest lady said tiredly, "It's nothing to do with you, let's go back first." There is some noise about today's affairs. ”

Du Mingyan stepped forward and said with a smile: "Auntie, why did you ask the maid to call me aunt?" ”

The eldest lady glanced at her, her hair was full of pearls, and the delicacy of the jewelry was no worse than that worn by Du Mingzhu. Look at the other two concubines, what else does the eldest lady not understand.

"The old lady sees that you are dressed well, and asks your aunt where her jewelry is made."

Du Mingyan said with a smile: "Where is this going to call my aunt over and ask me." This bead flower was given to me by the second sister, and this hairpin with red gold inlaid with red treasures was played in Liuyunxuan in the capital. I heard Sister Zhu say that my aunt also goes there often......"

The eldest lady was impatient to hear her say this, flicked her sleeves and turned around and went back to the main room.

Du Mingyan looked stunned, Du Mingzhu glanced at her, said "stupid" and took people away.

Du Mingjing was very happy and said with a smile: "The eldest sister also boasts of being smart, why can't she even see that the wife is perfunctory?" Who is to blame for making people face in vain? ”
