Chapter 27 Smashing pots and selling iron to pay the dowry
"Move a stool." She glanced at Jue Xia, and Jue Xia immediately smiled and groaned.
After a while, a small table and a small chair were set up in front of the old lady's door, and Xu was lying on it, climbing the branch and fanning.
Xu's leisurely appearance stung Mama Lin and the people in the house.
In just half an hour, the old lady woke up.
When Xu entered the door, the old lady couldn't see that she was tired, but there was a little anger between her eyebrows.
"Outside today, you're in a conflict with someone?" The old lady's eyebrows were full of displeasure.
"You are my daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion, representing the face of the Hou Mansion......
"I heard that you also sent Lu Jinghuai's mother to prison?" The old lady was breathing a little heavily.
Now, Lu Jinghuai is her eldest grandson, but she is her sweetheart.
Xu Shisheng's several are useless, and she values Lu Jinghuai more and more.
Xu Shi stood up straight, his eyebrows smiling slightly.
"Mother knows so quickly." She covered her mouth and chuckled.
"It's just a small thing. Who sent the news to disturb the mother's retreat? ”
Mama Lin's face was unhappy.
The house was a little stuffy, and the old lady liked to be quiet, but she was afraid of the cold, and she didn't want to use the ice basin this day.
"That Lu Jinghuai is known as the genius boy who is most likely to be in the middle of the three yuan. Isn't it a child's reputation that you put his mother in prison? You are also a mother, how can you be so poisonous? "The old lady hated it just thinking about it.
Xu frowned slightly.
"Mother is so unreasonable, his mother wears my dowry on her head, she is a thief! What's wrong with a thief stealing something and going to jail? ”
"Besides, who knows if he stole what he eats?"
As soon as these words came out, the old lady was so angry that her eyes were red, and she almost couldn't get up in one breath.
"The daughter-in-law has asked Dengzhi to find a list of dowries and send them to the county office. I've heard that a lot of things have been lost. ”
The old lady's face changed drastically.
At the beginning, her dowry was worth a fortune.
In order to show sincerity, Xu divided the dowry key into three. Hou Ye Lu Yuanze a handful, the old lady a handful, and Xu's handful.
Xu was generous, and the old lady took a lot of things privately and gave them to Pei Jiaojiao.
"Nonsense, this kind of thing is solved privately, why bother not to spare people? That child is the dragon and phoenix among people, why bother to offend people? The old lady gritted her teeth, where would she let her good grandson bear such an infamy.
The future is ruined.
She looked at Xu Shi with resentment in her eyes, this poisonous woman!
"Mother, you don't know the value of things."
"The daughter-in-law has three brothers, and the three brothers emptied their private property at that time to supplement Yun Niang. The value is so great that this matter is not to be taken personally. ”
"I have nothing to say when I am public, if I am private, my three elder brothers have a bad temperament, and it will not be beneficial to Lu Gongzi in the future."
The old lady's tone froze.
Master Xu, who has just taken office as Shangshu, is in charge of the whole dynasty.
Hou Fu, I can't afford to provoke it.
"This dowry has been circulated, but I am afraid that there will be a thief in the house. Just to find out that thief! The old lady who said this was shocked.
Until evening.
The old lady sent a message that she had caught the thief.
When Xu Shi led people over, his eyebrows flashed.
She guessed that the other party would push Mama Lin out to take the blame.
The old lady's face was extremely ugly, and her eyes were slightly closed: "Follow me for fifty years, she disappointed me too much." Her dowry was stolen and sold by her. ”
"That Lu Jinghuai's mother wants to be an innocent buyer."
She glanced at Mama Lin threateningly.
Mama Lin's children are all in charge of affairs in the house and are the old lady's henchmen.
In order to save Lu Jinghuai's reputation, the old lady would rather cut off her arm.
Xu's heart was bitter, and he only said lightly: "Send it to the government." Mama Lin's children are the sons of thieves, and they must not stay in the house. In the future, it may not be a revenge for the mother, but it will be a disaster. ”
Mama Lin's eyes widened suddenly.
was gagged by the old lady's order.
"The lost dowry must be found in a lot." Xu glanced at the old lady, and his heart was extremely happy.
The old lady almost gritted her teeth and responded word by word.
"As it should be."
By the time Xu left, Dengzhi had already returned from the palace.
Dengzhi closed the door with joy in his eyebrows, and whispered: "Madam, I'm afraid that the other party will smash the pot and sell iron." ”
"Seventeen years, I have stolen seventeen years of dowry, and now I have sent it back, I am afraid it will be half a life."
The slave maid inquired, that Lu Jinghuai was extremely mysterious outside, and no one ever knew who his father and mother were. only knows that he spends a lot of money, and advocates that heroes don't ask where they come from, and make friends all over the world. Many students from poor families are very good friends with him. ”
Xu Shi showed a hint of ridicule: "Take my money and spend a lot of money, but it's really high." ”
"Don't ask where you come from? What qualifications does he have to ask the source, he is the outer room, the most disdainful identity. ”
[In his previous life, he befriended a scholar from a poor family, and he had an excellent reputation. 】
[Later, his own sister, Lu Jingyao, his mother's adopted daughter, personally reported that the Xu family and his mother had rebelled, and the entire Xu family was killed. 】
[Perfectly got rid of my uncle and mother. Married into the Hou Mansion seriously, and there was no sewage at all......]
[In the previous life, our family was dedicated to the heavens. 】
Xu listened to his daughter's heart, and his heart was dripping blood.
Okay, okay very.
"Humble scholars? Who doesn't know that the poor family values reputation and character the most. If it is revealed that he is an out-of-house child and an illegitimate child, can he still be like a fish in water? Xu muttered in a low voice.
At night, Xu slept peacefully.
And the entire Hou Mansion stayed awake all night.
The old lady's private treasury was wide open, and she moved out of the treasures one by one.
The old lady knelt in the small Buddha hall, and the Buddha beads were about to be torn.
"It's sold, it's all sold, hurry up and fill the shortfall."
Jiaojiao is still in prison, and Jing Yao's eyes are swollen from crying. Jing Huai felt uncomfortable too, if his reputation could not be recovered this time, the impact on Jing Huai would be too great. Lu Yuanze's face was ugly.
His private treasury has been sold completely, and even the Zhuangzi has been hung up.
At this moment, he couldn't help hating Xu Shiyun, making him so embarrassed.
Jing Huai is stigmatized, and she is a poisonous woman!
