Chapter 38: Unrepentant Xi Chuyu

"Daddy, my daughter has the courage to say a bad word today, Xi Qingyan's reputation as the eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion has been ruined, in the future, does my father still expect Xi Qingyan, who gave birth to a child, to marry a good man?"

Xi Chuyu insulted Xi lightly.

During this time, she suffered a lot from Xi Qingyan, and now she will ask Xi Qingyan for all of it.

"I, Xi Chuyu, am the eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion, Daddy, you also know that if you want to have a smooth career, in addition to Daddy's own good performance in front of His Majesty, there is actually a shortcut to the south."

"Oh? As a father, I didn't know that your daughter's family actually had research on official careers?"

Shang Shuxi had no children in his life, and only gave birth to two daughters.

The most regrettable thing in his life is that he can't pass on his experience as an official to his son, and now, his youngest daughter Xi Chuyu actually said such a thing.

I couldn't help but make Lord Shang Shuxi a little interested.

"Daddy, you used to think that you would recruit a husband for your daughter to come to the door and keep the inheritance you created, but Daddy, your idea is too narrow."

"My daughter has an idea, Daddy, if I become the princess, and when the time comes, one person will ascend to heaven, and you will not only be Lord Shangshu Xi of the Ministry of Rites, but also Lord Xi of the Imperial Family!"

"Daddy, one is to be a courtier diligently all his life, and the other is to become a relative of the emperor, which one do you think is better?"

As soon as Xi Chuyu said this, she saw the light in her father's eyes.

Obviously, my father was very interested in her proposal!

"Do you still need to choose this? Three-year-old children know that the royal relatives are the most majestic!"

"Daddy, you look at our big family, and I am the only one who can make this dream come true."

"Although Xi Qingyan gave birth to a child for His Royal Highness the King of Jin, but, father, ask yourself, according to the current appearance of the eldest sister Xi Qingyan, can she enter the Li Wangfu and be the Li princess of the Li Wangfu?"

"The royal family pays so much attention to face, and His Royal Highness King Li is His Majesty's prince, if Xi Qingyan appears in front of everyone with a disfigured face, then the royal family will not only not let us Shangshu Mansion become relatives of the emperor, but maybe they will also hold us accountable!"

"But if your daughter and I enter King Li's Mansion, my flowery and moon-looking face will definitely not embarrass Shangshu Mansion, and His Royal Highness King Li's little son is your grandson, so he will naturally be close to my little aunt."

"Daddy, what do you think of such a way to count in one fell swoop?"

Xi Chuyu said bewildermently to his father, Lord Xi.

"I don't think so!"

Xi retorted with a sneer.

She was in Hanlian Garden, listening to Chun Tao reply to Mrs. Shangshu's repayment, originally Xi Qingyan wanted to find Lord Xi to come forward, forcing Mrs. Shangshu to bow her head, but she didn't expect that she heard such ridiculous words outside the study!

"You...... You...... Why are you back?!"

Xi Chuyu was half frightened to death by Xi Qingyan, who suddenly appeared, and the person staggered back two steps.

If it weren't for the table and chairs behind her, she would have fallen to the ground.

"Xi Qingyan, are you too unruly! I'm talking to my father, and you're listening snuck outside!"

"Do you know that our Shangshu Mansion also has rules?!"

Xi Chuyu held on to the table, and after standing firm, he made a reproach at Xi Qingyan.

She believed that her father had been completely manipulated by what she had just said, and now, Xi Qingyan jumped out, that is, she came to beg for a beating!

"You tell me the rules? Xi Chuyu, then I'll come here today to tell you what the rules are!"

Xi sneered lightly and sat directly opposite Xi Chuyu.

"First, I am the eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion, whether you, the second young lady, are in front of me or behind my back, all you keep saying is 'Xi Qingyan' Xi Qingyan, Xi Chuyu, you are like this

The person who doesn't call the eldest sister is still picking me for not following the rules?"

"You're ......!"

Xi Chuyu didn't expect Xi Qingyan to cower like before now, and dare to fight her in front of her father.

"What are you? Am I wrong?"

Xi Qingyan didn't take Xi Chuyu in his eyes at all, but continued to scold without hesitation.

"Second, Dong Guifei had a serious illness, and in the end, it was the God Doctor Gu Gu Master I invited who saved Dong Guifei's life, Xi Chuyu, you spent so much money in the family, and finally bought a useless pill, which made Your Majesty rejoice, and almost made the entire Shangshu Mansion buried for your reckless behavior! Xi Chuyu, you can't even do such a trivial thing, do you think that even if you cry and shout to marry into the royal family, Your Majesty and the prince in the palace are willing to marry you, a good-for-nothing person?"

"Xi Chuyu, what do you think of the royal family?"

"Xi Qingyan, at least I don't want you to be like this, with a face that others don't want to look at!"

Xi Chuyu couldn't stand Xi Qingyan's belittling of her, and directly scolded her.

"Face?"

Xi Qingyan heard this and sneered.

"What about my face? Xi Chuyu, you are also a young lady from Shangshu Mansion, don't you think that those women who have gained a foothold in the palace rely on the so-called face in your mouth?"

"Every three years, the royal family will select a group of beautiful women to enter the palace, which of them is not like you, day and night thinking about flying on the branches and becoming phoenixes, but unfortunately, they were finally swallowed directly by the palace."

"Xi Chuyu, if a brainless fool like you marries into the royal family, I'm afraid that ten heads in our Shangshu Mansion will not be enough to cut off at that time!"

Xi Qingyan scolded Xi Chuyu, that was not soft at all!

She is not uncommon for Princess Li's position! However, she can't let the person who came out of nowhere become her son's stepmother!

Su Xiaomo had such a miserable life in the past, if Su Lixiao found a ruthless stepmother like Xi Chuyu in the future, Su Xiaomo's well-adjusted body would be hit hard again!

"Xi Qingyan, you call me stupid? How dare you call me stupid? What are you!"

Xi Chuyu's anger was all raised by Xi Qingyan, and she didn't care about anything else, so she was about to do something to Xi Qingyan.

"Xi Chuyu! Enough trouble!"

Master Xi looked at his second daughter, who looked like a shrew, and his brows furrowed.

Because of the little delusion that Xi Chuyu instigated, he also completely dispelled his thoughts after seeing his second daughter Xi Chuyu's every move.

Those who can survive the royal family are all human spirits!

His daughter Xi Chuyu can't even be happy, and most of the people who are sent to the palace will be like his eldest daughter said, and in the end, Shangshu Mansion will not be able to live in peace!

"Daddy, how can you favor her so much!"

Xi Chuyu never expected that his father would not criticize Xi Qingyan, who deliberately found fault, and would yell at her, the most beloved daughter on weekdays!

"That's it! Shut up!"

Lord Xi hates women crying, making trouble and hanging themselves the most, and now, his two daughters are talking to him with a crying voice, and Lord Xi only feels bored.

"Xi Qingyan, there is something wrong with you, why don't you stay in your own Hanlian Garden, what are you doing for your father's study?"

Master Shang Shuxi in order to prevent his little daughter from continuing to mess around. had no choice but to reprimand his eldest daughter Xi lightly.

"I'm here for this dowry post."

Xi Qingyan put the roster in front of Lord Xi.

"When my father asked me to invite the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor, he promised in front of everyone that he would give me all of my mother's dowry for safekeeping."

"Now, Madame has returned some of it, but the rest of the title deeds of the Grange have not been returned to me!"

"I know that this title deed will not be easy to get back for a while, so I will convert it to Mrs. at eighty percent of the market price

When I came to my father's study, I just wanted to know who was in charge of the current Shangshu Mansion?"

"Father, does what you said in this house still count?"

Xi Qingyan's dowry list is clear, and Lord Xi only needs to glance at it to know the whole story.

Lord Xi can be regarded as having reacted now, the reason why his second daughter Xi Chuyu came to him today to make such a fuss is actually for this dowry.

"Xi Chuyu, you stay with your mother every day, why didn't you and your mother do what I said?"

Lord Shang Shuxi felt that his authority in the Shang Shu Mansion had been challenged.

I was suddenly unhappy in my heart.

In his opinion, a woman is a woman, the male protagonist and the female protagonist, he has already given orders, and Mrs. Shangshu has not done what he tells him, where will he put his face as the head of the family?

"Father, I can deduce that this lady is afraid that all of my mother's dowry will be used to subsidize the family, right? It's just that when the lady married into the Shangshu Mansion, it was rumored that the lady had dozens of boxes of dowry, why are they all gone now? Could it be that all those dowries back then were fabricated by the lady out of thin air?"

Xi Qingyan deliberately added fuel to the fire on the side.

"Father, if Madame even faked the dowry she brought with her when she married her father, then wouldn't she have been lying to her father all along?"

"Madame has now secretly taken my mother's dowry, if this matter is known to outsiders, when the reputation of my father's dowry of the late late wife spreads, I am afraid that my father will not be able to raise his head and be a man at all when he is outside, right?"

"Xi Qingyan, you are talking nonsense!"

"I tell you, don't slander my mother here! My mother, my eldest lady, why should you use your mother's dowry to support the family?"

Xi Chuyu was angry, and scolded Xi lightly.

"Since you are so disdainful, then hand over the money discounted from the title deed shop!"

"Xi Chuyu, it's very simple to prove Madame's innocence, if you can hand over the silver before tomorrow, then I won't pursue this matter, but if you can't hand over the silver, then I can only make this matter known to the whole clan, and then let the elders of the clan make the decision for me!"

As soon as Xi Qingyan's words came out, Lord Xi's face changed instantly.

"Nonsense!"

"Do we need to make a lot of trouble in the city about our family?"

"Father, I don't want to make a big deal out of it, but Madam and my good sister Xi Chuyu don't listen to their father's words at all, and in desperation, I, an orphan girl without a biological mother, can only ask for help from the elders in the clan!"

Xi Qingyan was not afraid of Lord Xi's shouting at all.

"I'm disfigured now anyway, and my reputation in Shengjing is even more embarrassing, if this matter is not resolved, then I will drag Shangshu Mansion to sink together!"

"Xi Qingyan, you rebel, what do you want to do? Is the face of my Shangshu Mansion wantonly ruined by you like this?"

Lord Xi couldn't sit still, and shouted angrily at Xi.

"I can't protect my deceased mother's things, what face do I still have to protect Shangshufu?"

"That's it for my whole life, but my mother's last trace of dignity and decency, she can't take care of it when she enters the Yellow Spring, I want to take care of it for her!"
