Listening to the sister-in-law still arranging to ridicule Mingyue, Cheng Shang's face turned red at first, and she wanted to open her mouth to defend herself, Cheng Hong thought that her sister was not sensible, and she had to do something to Mingyue, and her face was long, how ugly it was.

Chengshang didn't want to be wronged in her heart, even if she was reckless and wronged Mingyue, but she was also Hongluo's sister, for a widow who had never married before, she didn't have a good face for the whole family, the third brother was really fascinated by the fox, where to put the status of the family? Where does she put her face?

What made her even more angry was that Xianggong Luzon couldn't change his "picking" energy, and when he saw Yunzi's appearance of being a little childish and eager to carry it in his arms, he made people look at the joke in vain.

Yunzi's appearance naturally dispelled Mingyue's suspicion of stealing, but the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing.

Mingyue has a twisted temperament and is unwilling to speak first to show weakness;

The Cheng family already thinks highly of themselves, and they are even more reluctant to apologize.

The two sides were at a stalemate, and the breathing of the people could be heard in silence, which was very different from the previous lively appearance.

Cheng Hongluo rolled his eyes and said to Mingyue: "Mingyue, didn't you say that you would talk to me about the dowry?" Can it be said now? ”

Mingyue looked at Cheng's family suspiciously, and hesitated: "Just say it here?" ”

Cheng Hongluo nodded affirmatively, Mingyue understood what Cheng Hongluo meant, he wanted her to read the dowry list in front of her, kill the prestige of the family, at least, dare not underestimate the village woman Liu who married her.

In fact, Cheng Hongluo didn't know what dowry Mingyue prepared for the Liu family, when he was engaged, he was afraid that the Liu family's background was thin, and the dowry was less to make the Cheng family and Xiangyang Village laugh, so the dowry was prepared for a full eighteen lifts, just to serve as a dowry when the Liu family married, and then serve as a dowry to carry it back, anyway, the rest of the Cheng family didn't know what kind of dowry he was preparing, which was a little careful thinking for the Liu family, to support the Liu family.

Mingyue shrugged her shoulders, took out a red sticker with gilded edges from her arms, cleared her throat, and read it out loud: "One gold head, one purple jade, one pearl, five satins, two pairs of jade bracelets, ten frames of calligraphy and paintings, and four sets of four treasures of the high-grade study...... The field yields 20 acres and 500 taels of silver......"

Reading Mingyue's mouth was dry, and in her heart, she complained about Cheng Hongluo, saying that Sanfang was a village girl and a village woman, how could there be calligraphy and painting? The Four Treasures of the Study? I'm afraid that this Cheng Hongluo is also a swollen face and a fat man, and he took all his family resources as a dowry, is this a face for his mother, or is it a slap in the face?

Finally finished reading, the Cheng family really didn't know that these things were Cheng Hongluo's old background, and their faces were shocked, as if they didn't expect a village woman's dowry to reach thousands of taels of silver.

Mingyue sighed and said to the little maid who came with her: "I took the four treasures of the study, and I added a few words." ”

The little maid looked at the eldest lady, the eldest lady didn't pay attention to her, and ran out as soon as she agreed, and after a while, she had a bitter face, only a somewhat bald brush and a fast-grinding inkstone and inkstone in her hand, and handed it to Mingyue and said: "I searched all over Lord Cheng's study, and only found this shabby one, you will just write." ”

Mingyue knew in her heart that the four treasures of the better study room were all thrown into the dowry! This defective should be used by Cheng Hongluo to leave a temporary approval, in order to make a dowry for the Liu family, this stepfather is really fighting.

Mingyue poured a few drops of tea from someone on the table into the inkstone, and picked up the inkstone that was polished, it was too small to even shake hands.

Mingyue simply took out the dragon bird dagger, directly cut off a small piece, and crushed it into powder like a medicine, which moistened a little black ink.

The second Cheng Hongce frowned when he looked at his eyebrows, and said lightly: "How can this be true!" Insulting Sven! If his students were like this, they would probably have been swept out of the house or served by him.

Mingyue waved the gilded red sticker in her hand to the people in the Cheng family, and said loudly: "Old lady, eldest lady, second lady and elders, these gold and silver jewelry and calligraphy and paintings I just read out cannot be called a dowry, in fact, the dowry that the adult gave to my mother. ”

"Oh..... Before, I also suspected that the village aunt and village woman could have the four treasures of the study, the calligraphy and painting of the book frame, the original was the third brother's 'dowry', but it is a pity that the third brother's heart, the mud can never support the wall, and the pheasant will never become a phoenix. The eldest lady finally caught the mouth of her anger, and there was a great tendency not to vomit and be unhappy.

Mingyue nodded indifferently and said, "You're right, village girls and village women can only match with some vulgar things." ”

Cheng Hongluo's face turned slightly red, and it sounded like Mingyue scolding him for being a vulgar thing.

Mingyue said to Cheng Hong teasingly: "Godfather, my mother is simple-minded and can't do business, so she can't marry the shop; My mother is a weak woman, and she can't farm, so she can't marry the land; My mother is diligent and thrifty, and she is used to being simple on weekdays, so she can't marry jewelry; My mother is illiterate, and she can't be elegant, so she can't marry the four treasures of calligraphy and painting, and the four treasures of the study, so you will accept the 'vulgar things' I have prepared! ”

Mingyue picked up the pen, and after the gilded red sticker, she wrote down six words one by one, picked it up and dried the ink.

Sui Lian craned her neck and wanted to see it, but she couldn't see what was written, and only vaguely found out that it was six words.

This Cheng Hongluo also loves his daughter-in-law too much, and handed over thousands of taels of family funds without passing the door, which is completely different from Cheng Hongmou, who always runs to the Qinglou to socialize, and Cheng Hongce, who always owes 800 hanging money.

The eldest lady was even more angry in her heart, and said with a sour voice: "Mother, I just said that this in-law can't do it, not only a widow with a baby, but also a helpless poor sour, and even the dowry has to 'rub' the dowry of the third brother, and the dowry filled in later will not be a few stones of wheat, a few catties of cabbage and the like, right?" That's too embarrassing to be a family! It's just not the same as my 100 taels of silver dowry back then, it has to be about the same as Gao'er's 50 taels of dowry, right? ”

"Don't talk about my mother! Don't bully my sister!! Gao'er's eyes were red again, just staring, desperately not letting the tears flow, holding Mingyue's hand tightly, Gao'er had no mother when she was a child, and her impression of her mother was far less impressive than that of Liu, so she didn't want this so-called aunt to bully Liu and Mingyue.

"Little white-eyed wolf, with a stepmother, I look at my mother! There are times when you cry!! Sui Lian said in a vicious voice.

Mingyue ignored the vicious dog-like biting mother and daughter, and handed the red sticker to Cheng Sheng and said, "You can read it, I'll give my mother's dowry." ”

Cheng Sheng opened the red sticker with a solemn face, his face was extremely ugly, and then he was so red that he was hot, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Mingyue didn't urge her, took out a silver ticket from her arms, and handed it to Gao Er lightly and said: "Gao Er, when your mother marries the day after tomorrow, you hand it over to her, this is her private money, and the twenty-three county governments of the Great Qi Kingdom can be exchanged, and the ticket number of Chaoyang County has to be cashed in two days." You persuade our mother for me, don't worry too much in the future, so as not to be looked down upon by people with bad eyes. ”

Gao Er hugged Mingyue tightly, and looked at the eldest aunt not very friendly, although he was young, he also knew who had the worst attitude.

Sui Lian wanted to sneer again, but Cheng Sheng raised her eyes and glared at her, and glared back at her words stubbornly.

Cheng Sheng handed the big red post back to Cheng Hongluo, and said guiltily: "Mingyue, it's my aunt who wants to fork it." Just now, the third brother was too protective of your mother and your stepdaughter, and I thought that he was blinded by the always shrewd one. Now I know that the person who was blinded was not him, but me. Since it is not the wealth of the third brother, and Gao'er is clinging to you, it must be your mother and daughter who treat them well. In the future, if I say those bastard words again, let the third brother whip my ears! I'm not going to fight back. ”

Mingyue was quite surprised, but she didn't expect Cheng Shang to be able to take it and put it down, suspecting that Mingyue was a bad person, and said that she would do it; realized that she had misunderstood, and apologized when she apologized, without ambiguity or words, but it really responded to Cheng Hongluo's evaluation of her.

Mingyue nodded and said: "Relatives should be like you, thinking about your brother from the bottom of their hearts, saying things clearly, and asking questions about things, so as to avoid misunderstandings." This silver ticket is my mother's dowry silver, my mother has prepared gifts for you, all of which are stored in Cuiyunxuan, the woman is a complete set of heads, and the man is the original stone of the carved seal; I was going to take it again on the day of the wedding, since everyone is so 'curious', I had to say in advance, you can take it in advance, if you like other styles, you can also change it directly, you don't need to inform me, I finally unified with Sheng Yuxuan shopkeeper to settle accounts. What was given to the old lady was a two-foot white jade statue of Guanyin, which was the purest piece of jade in Leyang County, which was very rare. ”

Everyone fell silent, looked at each other, and was so embarrassed that they couldn't breathe, and Sui Lian's face was even more red, and she lowered her head and stirred her fingers.

The eldest lady instantly changed her face and smiled: "Cheng Sheng is right, everyone is for the good of the third brother, the family is happy, we are all happy!" What are you still called the old lady, the eldest lady, and the second lady, quickly changed it, called grandmother, eldest aunt, second aunt, these three brothers are really, and they don't give introductions, let Mingyue dry the pestle here for a long time. Come, the eldest aunt will introduce you. ”

The face of this "eldest uncle" turned so unexpectedly that Mingyue didn't escape her "claws" at all, and was dragged to see them one by one, and finally didn't remember which of these cousins and cousins belonged to who's family, but only remembered the flying and domineering Sui Lian and the taciturn Sui He.

Mingyue was really troubled by the noise, and Yanran gave a salute to the old lady and said: "Old lady, Mingyue has something at home, so she will retire first, and there are some things I want to talk to my godfather alone." ”

The old lady still looked indifferent, nodded slightly, Mingyue gave a slight gesture to Cheng Hong, and the two walked outside together.

As soon as the two disappeared in front of everyone, the eldest lady quickly walked towards Gao'er and reached out to grab the silver ticket, wanting to see the value of the silver ticket.

Gao Er was quite disgusted with this woman who made irresponsible remarks about Liu as soon as she came, not only did she not let her see it, but she also held it in her arms, hugged her shoulders in front of her chest, and no one could see it.

The eldest aunt pursed her lips and said lightly: "Just this silver ticket, no matter how much you can have, and buy jewelry for everyone, I think it's a toad yawning, blowing quite big." This Cuiyun Xuan is definitely not a noble jade shop. ”

Cheng Shang is a businessman, accustomed to seeing the wind and the rudder, when I see it today, I have seen it before, and the speed of my sister-in-law's change of face is better than that of those people.

Cheng Sheng sighed and said: "Sister-in-law, the third sister-in-law's dowry is so 'vulgar' that it can't be more 'vulgar', it is all white silver, similar to your dowry, it all starts with one word, but you are one hundred taels, and others are, one hundred thousand taels." ”

The eldest lady stared at her, how could this poor village woman be so rich? Isn't her ex-husband a prince and a wealthy man?
