153 Dowry

Ji Rong's brain hurt when he heard this.

"Uncle Shi...... How did you get here? Aren't you still sick......"

"I'm just a minor illness, not enough to be in bed for the rest of my life! Are you saying that I am not welcome? ”

The elder of the clan sat down on the circle chair next to him and knocked the cane in his hand hard.

"The juniors don't dare."

"Not the best. I'm an old bone, I've been worried about Ji Fu all my life, your father is all in charge of me, and I have no credit and hard work. I don't want the Ji family's century-old filial piety to be ruined on your Ji Rong's vein now! ”

Ji Rong's throat rolled hard.

"Uncle Shi is so late, I don't know why I came?"

"Big brother pretending to be stupid!"

Ji Laosi had been following behind the elder of the big clan with a gloomy face, and when he heard this, he sneered, and the people who listened to his thin voice were uncomfortable.

"The eldest lady is so blessed, she just left the husband of Wu Dingbo's son-in-law, and she married another one. One maid and two husbands, what a big surprise! ”

"What did you say!"

Ji Chengfeng shot the case, and he couldn't wait to rush up and punch Ji Laosi, so that Ji's mother was quick to stop.

Ji Laosi flinched, and when he saw that Ji Chengfeng couldn't pass, he suddenly became confident, and raised his chin to show off his might.

Just as he was smug, a voice behind him asked:

"This lord, is there any dissatisfaction with the marriage between our Hou Ye and the county lord?"

Ji Laosi's back stiffened, and he turned back slowly, only to see an old man with a kind and elegant face, standing outside the door with his sleeves inserted.

There were also several sturdy men behind him, and several people stared at Ji Laosi with eagle-like eyes, so frightened that his legs trembled and his back sweated.

"You, you, you?"

"This is the land steward of the Champion Hou Mansion!"

Ji Rong hurriedly introduced, "The dowry has not been counted yet, and the Lu steward has been staying in the house for a few days. ”

The big clan stood up stubbornly, "It was originally a person from the Hou Mansion, and it was a distant welcome!" There is a long way to go! ”

"When I came, I heard that everyone was discussing the dowry, and it happened that the Hou Ye had a advice, so I came here to pass the word."

Lu Bo glanced at the old two of the clan, and said slowly:

"Master Hou instructed that the dowry should be handed over to the county lord for handling, and it is up to the county lord to decide whether to keep it or take it away."

Ji Rong and the others didn't say anything, but the elder of the big clan and Ji Laosi suddenly jumped to their feet.

Ji Laosi was so angry that his nose and eyes were crooked, and he said with a smile:

"What do you mean by this...... This dowry was originally given to the bride's mother's family...... How can there be a reason for the bride to take it away by herself......"

Steward Lu: "Master Hou said that the county lord did not re-enter the Jifu clan after leaving, but set up another female household, so this dowry should not belong to the Jifu." If this old man thinks it's inappropriate, we can go to Shuntianfu to argue. ”

Bang –

Ji Laosi sat on the chair, completely dumbfounded.

I really forgot about this stubble!!

The old man of the big clan hugged his crutches tightly, and kept signaling Ji Rong to speak with his eyes, but he ignored the past.

Steward Lu looked at Ji Rong with a smile, he had no intention of leaving, obviously he came for the dowry, and he asked Ji Rong to give him a word.

Ji Rong nodded, "Master Hou is thinking properly. Go, send someone to Luming Pavilion to send a message, and ask Xi Tao, who is next to the eldest lady, to bring someone and move the dowry. ”

The steward nodded and left, and Steward Lu was satisfied and gave up.

"Then I'll take my leave."

Steward Lu glanced at Ji Lao Si meaningfully when he turned around, and then left with someone.

When they came out of the Moon Gate, Ji Rong looked at the two elders of the big clan, "This uncle should also be clear." The dowry can't be moved, so you two should go back. ”

"This, in this world, there is no such reason! There is no such precedent! ”

The old man of the big clan blushed and had a thick neck, "His champion Hou Mansion is clearly an empty glove white wolf!" Let's marry our daughter, and if we don't get anything, we will pay him for the dowry! Aren't you two brainless? ”

"Compensation? Whether you pay or not, you know in your own mind. ”

Ji Chengfeng snorted, "I think it's pretty good." The dowry should be old, how she wants to spend it, and where she spends it, she has the final say. ”

"If this dowry really belongs to the Ji family, I don't know which family it will spend on in the end. You must know that up to now, there are a few public schools that have not paid off their deficits! You know it in your heart! ”

"You-"

The old head of the big clan was dull, and he fainted on the spot with a white eye.

"Quick! Hurry up and find the doctor to carry it back! ”

There was a rush in the front yard, and Ji Laosi took advantage of the chaos to slip away alone.

On the way back to the hospital, he scolded as he walked, cursed Ji Shu and Qi Ye fiercely, and kicked the stones that blocked the way.

Passing by the bridge, the night was dark, and suddenly a strong kick hit his back, Ji Laosi flew out in the air and fell into the pool under the bridge!

"Gollum-help-help--help-help-grunt

Ji Laosi didn't get fat again, he drowned quickly, and he didn't know how much water he swallowed, and his stomach and chest swelled as if they were about to explode!

At this time, a patrol of the courtyard passed by with lanterns, heard the movement in the lake, and surrounded it.

"It's the fourth master! Help! ”

Luming Pavilion

Xitao walked into the inner room with the antidote, brought Ji Shu to the bed, and said to her with a smile:

"Miss doesn't know, the front yard is very lively!"

"Huh?"

Ji Shu put down the account book in his hand and tilted his head curiously.

Xi Tao told the story of the front yard vividly, and smiled and leaned back.

"It's not been two days since the old man of the big clan was able to go to the ground, and now he is lying back again, and there are four old men, and his stomach is as swollen as a ball! And now I'm spitting out the outpouring of sewage! Half a life is almost gone! Should! Call them to covet Miss's stuff! ”

Ji Shuwan'er took the medicine and said while stirring the coolness:

"The general's dowry is too much, too eye-catching, which one will not be red-eyed, let alone they who are used to taking advantage of the master's family."

"Miss was really wise to set up a female household in the first place, so she was not afraid to spend any more money to support them!"

Ji Shu did think about it like this, she thought about it and said:

"But you can't leave nothing, otherwise even if the female household is reasonable, it will not look good in the face. Now the world is still based on filial piety. ”

"Miss is not afraid of leaving things for the old lady, but the old man doesn't care about the affairs of the house, and the lady is soft-hearted and easy to be coaxed, and the money left behind can't be spent on their second elder. I'm afraid there is no suitable place to put it. ”

Xi Tao sighed heavily.

"What does Miss think?"

Ji Shumo rubbed the wall of the cup and was silent for a long time.

Suddenly, she thought of something and raised her eyes to look at Xi Tao, "Do we have a money village at the foot of the eastern suburbs of the mountain?" ”

Xi Tao: "There is a Yongheng Money Village, what's wrong Miss?" Do you want money? However, it is not safe to go to Yongheng Qianzhuang, and the slave maid heard that the mountain is making trouble with the king of the mountain, and the court is preparing to send troops to clear it. ”

Ji Shu pursed his lips and smiled, thinking about it.
