Chapter 40: Old Madam Zhou
How is there so much less?
These words fell on Zhou Shiyuan's ears, making him feel that his face was very painful.
A moment ago, he swore in the courtyard that they would not take Yuan Zhao's dowry, and they would sue Yuan Zhao.
At this moment, he knew that Yuan Zhao had lost so much dowry.
Zhou Shiyuan is not a fool, it is impossible for Yuan Zhao to lose so much dowry for no reason, and he remembers very clearly on the list of asking the wind, and he remembers every dowry of Yuan Zhao very clearly, and he cannot deny it.
He saw a lot of people on it, covering almost the entire Yongning Marquis Mansion, especially his mother and sister.
At this moment, Zhou Shiyuan seemed to have been slapped fiercely.
He blushed and couldn't speak.
Seeing his expression in his eyes, Yuan Zhao felt very happy in his heart.
This huge Hou Mansion is supported by her dowry and silver, they eat her flesh and drink her blood, but they also scold her one by one for being a slut.
The ones who really make a mistake are the ones they are.
Zhou Shiyuan couldn't hold it anymore at this time, and Yuan Zhao added a fire to it.
"By the way, Shizi, aren't you going to Jingzhao Yin to sue me and say that you want to return an innocent person to the Hou Mansion?"
Zhou Shiyuan: "......"
Zhou Shiyuan's face was white and blue, green and red, changing in turns, and it was very good-looking.
After half a ring, he said:
“…… We'll talk about that in a moment. ”
"Don't, Shizi."
Yuan Zhao refused: "The dowry is such a big thing, and it involves the innocence of the Hou Mansion, so let's report it to the official." ”
"Come on, run a trip to Jing Zhaoyin for the prince to invite someone."
Zhou Shiyuan's face changed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said:
"Yuan Zhao!"
reported to the official, this matter must be thoroughly investigated, and when the time comes, the matter of the mother's sister taking Yuan Zhao's dowry can no longer be hidden, how will the sister say kiss in the future, and how will the mother go out to meet people?
And most importantly, how can he get on the job?
Yuan Zhao didn't take Zhou Shiyuan's obstruction in her eyes, she glanced at Linglong, Linglong was about to leave, but at this time, Zhou's mother, who was supposed to be punished in the ancestral hall, came out.
She changed her previous swagger and stupidity, dressed in plain clothes, and just a simple silver hairpin on her head.
"Daughter-in-law, I know that you have been wronged about the dowry."
After speaking, she raised her voice and said:
"In the past three years, the Hou Mansion has suffered hardships, and I have lived on my daughter-in-law's dowry and silver, and I have kept every sum in my heart."
"Now that the Hou Mansion is safe, we will naturally compensate my daughter-in-law well."
"Zhaozhao, don't worry, everything you do for the Hou Mansion is in your mother's heart."
"When the situation in the Hou Mansion is better, I will definitely make up the dowry for you, and you also know the situation in the Hou Mansion now......"
Mother Zhou's words are extremely subtle.
On the one hand, she admitted that she used the dowry, but the meaning in and out of her words was that the dowry was given by Yuan Zhao on his own initiative, and they borrowed it, and they were willing to pay it back.
On the other hand, she put a high hat on Yuan Zhao again, making Yuan Zhao have a bad seizure.
Finally, she clarified the current situation of the Hou Mansion, if the people of the Yuan family come to ask for a dowry at this time, the Yuan family will ignore it, after all, the situation in the Hou Mansion is so difficult now, it is really unreasonable to come to the door to ask for it again.
Wonderful!
Without thinking about it, Yuan Zhao knew who meant this, except for the old lady Zhou, she couldn't think of anyone else.
If it were someone else, I was afraid that this time I would be crushed.
Thinking of this, Yuan Zhao glanced up at Zhou's mother, only to see Zhou's mother making a righteous and awe-inspiring look, but she was staring at Yuan Zhao in private.
Seeing Yuan Zhao look over, there was a hint of smugness in her eyes, and she was clearly saying, what can you do to me?
As long as this turmoil passes, what storms can Yuan Zhao set off?
When the time comes, those dowries will not be gone, what can Yuan Zhao do?
Looking at Zhou's mother's smug appearance, Yuan Zhao smiled slowly.
Seeing her smile, Zhou's mother had a bad premonition in her heart.
