In the past few years, the Jiang family has sold almost all the gifts given by the Sun family into silver, and sent his son to Yuelu Academy to find the best master, and spent not 5,000 but 3,000 before and after.

Jiang's mother's family is a poor official, there are many brothers and sisters in the family, and her father has a few concubines, barely enough to eat. So when I got married, I didn't buy much dowry.

Now that he is sitting on the empty mountain, Master Mu is an eight-grade businessman, but he is a poor and sour Confucian, how can he have any money at home?

In order to make their children get ahead, the Jiang family has also spent a lot of money in recent years.

Mu Caiping knew very well how much her mother pressed the bottom of the box, and when she heard that the Sun family was going to give a dowry, she was immediately stupid.

Now even if her mother wakes up, she won't be able to take out five thousand taels of silver. It's not worth the price if you sell them!

She looked at the Sun family who was aggressively reaching out to ask for the account, and then at Mu Caiwei, who was standing idly with her arms in her arms, and only felt that she wanted to die.

On the one hand, there is a debt of five thousand taels of silver, and on the other hand, the life of marrying a fool, where should she go!

The warm sun was shining overhead, and Mu Caiping only felt dazzling.

She thought about it for a long time, so she had to turn her head and beg Cai Wei again, "Sister, can you make the Sun family have fewer people?" ”

Cai Wei spread her hands and was very embarrassed, "The Sun family is not wrong in doing this." As long as the dowry is returned, the man is not married to the woman, and the two are naturally irrelevant. ”

People are reasonable, she has already interceded here, and if she doesn't let the family get the dowry back, this practice can't be said.

The light in Mu Caiping's eyes gradually withered, yes, with short hands, how should she get together the five thousand taels?

The people of the Sun family saw her bowing their heads and were silent, knowing that this was gone. The old couple of the Sun family couldn't help sneering and sneering, "Your Mu family is also a famous family, how can you do such an unsightly thing?" Since you have accepted the dowry, don't think about breaking the contract. If you want to break the contract, then return the dowry! ”

Mu Caiping was forced to be unable to do anything, and seeing that Caiwei didn't speak out anymore, she had to reason with the Sun family herself, "It's your Sun family who concealed it first, if not, we'll see the official." Anyway, we have relatives in our family, if you are not afraid of going to prison, just try? ”

She faked the tiger and made Cai Wei want to laugh when she heard it.

This Mu Caiping really has two hits, will she use her this time?

But she wouldn't give her that chance.

Why was her relationship with Lu Ying used by this cousin who had not been in contact for more than ten years?

"Don't, sister, I haven't married Master Lu yet, what kind of relatives are not relatives?" She pretended to be shy, which made people think she was thin-skinned.

But Mu Caiping's scalp tingled when she heard it, and when she said this, she couldn't climb the Jinyi Guard's command to make this relative. Can the people of the Sun family give up?

The old couple of the Sun family are not stupid, they sniffed out a hint of something, and hurriedly pressed Mu Caiping, "If the girl is interested, she will quickly withdraw the dowry, and we will go back to Jinling." If the girl wants to get cheap and sell well, we are not the master of bullying. Regardless of whether it is a prison or an edict, you can't wronged a good person? ”

Although Mu Caiping has learned a lot of people's sophistication, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting over the years, it is the first time she has encountered such a tricky matter, and she was so anxious that she was about to cry when she was forced by others.

She looked at Cai Wei pitifully, and pleaded, "Good sister, I just commanded the envoy to send a lot of dowry gifts, and the list is densely written, you can borrow two things from your sister first, and wait for your sister to return them to you in a few days!" ”

Is this your own idea?

Cai Wei pursed her lips, her head shook like a rattle, "No, sister, you also saw it, I only looked at the gift list brought by Lord Lu, and I didn't see anything, I can't conjure it up for you out of thin air, right?" ”

Seeing that this road was also blocked, Mu Caiping was already desperate, and immediately sat on the ground and hugged her head and cried, "Woo, why is my life so bitter?" I don't marry a fool, and I don't marry when I die! ”

was crying, I saw Jiang stumbling from the corridor, and when I got closer, I saw my daughter sitting on the ground holding her head and crying, and my heart suddenly hurt and I couldn't stand it, "Ping'er, what's wrong with you?" Tell your mother, and your mother will call the shots! ”

"Mother," Mu Caiping, who had never suffered such a loss since she was a child, was like a child who had found the backbone of the heart, and plunged into Jiang's arms, crying, "Mother, I don't want to marry a fool, the people of the Sun family forced my daughter to withdraw the dowry." Mother, think of a way to send them away. ”

If she stays any longer, she is afraid that she will really collapse.

"Good boy, don't cry, my mother will call the shots for you."

In fact, the Jiang family has no bottom in her heart, and she knows better than anyone how much money she has in her hand.

Now let her immediately return the dowry, and there is no door.

She made up her mind, but turned back to comfort Mu Caiping, "Your villain's family has never seen any battles, and the poor ones are frightened." You go back and rest first, and leave the rest to your mother! ”

Mu Caiping was persuaded by her mother to go back to the house crying, and Caiwei was not interested in watching the Jiang family fight with the Sun family, so she simply went back to her house.

Zhang's family wants to see the excitement, this sister-in-law is arrogant on weekdays, and she feels that she is more noble than her, but she just knows a few more words and can tell some big truths. The old lady likes something like it, and even her daughter is superior.

Now that she has Cai Wei's family, she is not afraid of her. Anyway, she is Cai Wei's stepmother, and if she climbs the big tree of Lu Ying, she will be waiting to take a good dip in the future.

"Sister-in-law, this dowry is a lot of silver. Can my sister-in-law afford it? The words of concern are actually full of cynicism.

Jiang naturally could hear it, but in the end, Jiang Lao was spicy, she glanced at Zhang unhurriedly, and looked very confident, "Brother and sister, don't be complacent, Cai Wei has a good family, and it will not be your turn to enjoy Qingfu." Brother and sister, let's think about how to protect themselves? ”

This can be regarded as hitting Zhang's pain point. After all, she is not Cai Wei's biological mother, for so many years, Cai Wei has been fending for herself in the countryside, and she has a lot of credit. If it weren't for her, Mu Dongsheng wouldn't have remembered that daughter.

What she has done and what means she has used, naturally she can't hide it from the Jiang family.

What's more, Cai Wei had a conflict with the Zhang family on the first day she came, although she was reconciled later, who knows if Cai Wei will use her husband's hand to suppress her after she gets married in the future?

It's hard to say.

Mu Dongsheng listened to his sister-in-law's words badly, and he couldn't help but weigh it in his heart. Cai Wei can be favored by a high-ranking and powerful person like Lu Ying, is it good or bad?

He has not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father over the years, and in the future, will Cai Wei hold a grudge?

The husband and wife glanced at each other, and each saw worry in the other's eyes.

Zhang's really didn't dare to hold it up now.

It's just that she didn't want to lose her prestige in front of the Jiang family, so she immediately smiled, "Sister-in-law, don't worry about me, let's think about how to return the dowry of a few thousand taels of silver first." ”

Putting down this sentence, she pulled Mu Dongsheng's sleeve and said, "Let's go back, go and see what else the second girl needs, and prepare in advance." ”

After speaking, the two of them walked away.

Here, the Jiang family faced the old couple of the Sun family with angry faces.

She also lost her good face, and used all her tricks, "If you don't leave, let's see the officials and say that you robbed the women of good families, and see if you suffer or I suffer?" ”

The Sun family was just a rich man, and he was in the capital, thinking that after all, his arms couldn't twist his thighs, so he had to take his stupid son away with hatred.

After seeing that the people were finally sent away, Jiang only felt that his whole body was also shaky, and he didn't know whether he was scared or tired, so he hurriedly helped a little girl's hand and turned back to his room.

Mrs. Wang also woke up slowly, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she was so frightened that she asked the mother-in-law guarding outside the door, "Is the commander of the brocade guard leaving?" ”

The mother-in-law hurriedly replied, "I've been gone for a long time, and I've already made a family relationship with the second girl." ”

"What? Cai Wei's girl, actually climbed up to that adult? Mrs. Wang was so surprised that her eyes were about to pop out.

How did such a country girl fall into the eyes of that cold-faced gentleman? Didn't Cai Ping meet that adult in the jewelry store a few days ago? Could it be that the Lord mistaken?

Mrs. Wang was thinking wildly in her heart, and there were words in her mouth, "No, it shouldn't be." ”

The mother-in-law only thought that the old lady was frightened and talked nonsense, and she didn't pay attention to it.

The day passed without incident.

On the second day, just after dawn, Cai Wei was still sleeping in her arms, but she was woken up by Zhang's loud voice.

She stood outside the door and asked Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu with a smile, "Hasn't the girl gotten up yet?" I have a few good things here to press the bottom of the box for you girls, so hurry up. ”

Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu rolled their eyes, and ignored them, "Our girl slept late yesterday, and my wife spoke quietly, don't wake up the girl." ”

These two girls have some anger on them, not to mention, a woman in the house of the Zhang family is still quite afraid.

She stuffed the tray in her hand to Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, and whispered, "Then when the girl wakes up, you will say that I have been here." She left in a hurry, and if she stayed any longer, she was really afraid that she would be stared at by these two girls.

Cai Wei rubbed her sleepy eyes, crawled out of the bed, and shouted Little Five Little Six.

The two girls came in, brought water, she washed it, and then went to see the good things in Zhang's mouth.

Opened the tray covered with a red rhombus, on which were placed a pair of red gold pendants, the style was still the old one from a few years ago, and a pair of gold bracelets, just thin, not a few taels.

Cai Wei couldn't help but sneer, the Zhang family really made a bloody investment.

But talking is better than nothing, and it is naturally not a bad thing for Zhang to think about her.

After breakfast, Cai Wei planned to go out for a walk. I've been in the capital for so long, and I've never had a good time shopping.

As soon as he went out, he met Li Ruzhou.

This guy seems to be waiting for her outside.

After a long absence, Cai Wei couldn't be happier, she almost rushed forward, she shouted happily, "Why are you here?" ”

This is her cousin, if it weren't for the fact that the Li family was a prisoner, how could relatives meet but dare not recognize each other.

Li Ruzhou reached out and touched her head, and smiled dotingly, "I saw that the heavenly guard was at the door of your house, and I finally looked forward to you." ”

"Huh? What are you doing here every day? If you want to see me, why don't you just ask someone to pass me a word? Cai Wei wondered, was this Li Ruzhou stupid after entering Beijing?

Li Ruzhou sneered, "Do you think you are the favored eldest lady of the Mu family?" I've begged the people at the door many times, but they didn't agree, if you hadn't climbed Lu Ying's big tree, I guess you wouldn't have been able to get out. ”

Cai Wei thinks about it, it makes sense, really, if it weren't for Lu Yinghu's fake tiger power, her situation in this mansion would not be as good as a subordinate.

"Where do you live now? What are you looking for me? Cai Wei glanced left and right, and then asked cautiously.

"I live in the alley behind Mu's house." Li Ruzhou also whispered closer, too close, he could see the fine fluff on her face, the girl's skin was crystal clear, and the beauty made people can't help but hold their breath.

"So close? That's the house you're looking for? Cai Wei asked as she walked out.

"Yes, the Lord is near you, and you can listen to the letters of this house at any time." Li Ruzhou said honestly.

But he also had a point, and Cai Wei didn't say anything.

"I'm going to open a semicolon for the Death Pavilion, can you come to the clinic?" Li Ruzhou looked at Cai Wei sideways, waiting for her answer expectantly.

Cai Wei was already so idle that she was about to grow hair, and when she heard this, she was so excited that her pores all over her body widened, "Okay, okay, of course I can." ”

Seeing that she was so excited and excited, Li Ruzhou poured cold water on her, "You will marry Lu Ying in three days, can you still come out in the future?" ”

"What's not to do then?" Cai Wei asked rhetorically, "I told him a long time ago that you can't be chained to your home every day after you get married." ”

"I'm afraid that Lu Ying won't agree." Li Ruzhou was also very worried.

Cai Wei is a deviant girl, but will Lu Ying indulge her so much? What man wants his wife to come out and show his face, or even have physical contact with other men?

He felt that with Lu Ying's status and status, he might not be able to accept it.

He scoffed, "Let's talk about it after you get married." ”

Cai Wei saw that he didn't believe it, so she didn't say anything more. Anyway, when she comes out, everything has an answer.

The two of them walked along the lively street, pointing to the shops on the street to see which one was good.

After walking around, Li Ruzhou took a fancy to a shop that was not very lively, where there were not many people, and it was quiet in the middle of the noise, but it was not a quiet place.

"That's it." As soon as Li Ruzhou designated, "I will open this shop in a few days, and after you get married, even if you can't sit in the clinic every day, you can come to guide you from time to time." ”

Seeing that Cai Wei was silent, he pretended to shrug his shoulders easily, "Don't worry, the monthly silver will be given." ”

Although he was joking, Cai Wei somehow heard a sense of sadness.

Perhaps, when she got married, he was not happy in his heart.

So, she still didn't talk to him about it.

She thought so, and secretly rejoiced in her heart, fortunately she didn't promise him at the beginning, otherwise, this cousin and sister would be married and it would be troublesome to have a fool in the future.

The ancient people didn't understand, but she knew it very well.
