Chapter 238: Regret

It wasn't until the old lady finished flipping through all the account books in her hand that Jiang Fuyao's heart rose again.

"That's not right," the old lady frowned, "why is this money getting less and less, and it hasn't been paid for months?" ”

The old lady said as she looked at Jiang Fuyao.

When she saw Jiang Fuyao's face, the old lady's pupils shrank slightly.

But she didn't say anything, just looked at her.

Jiang Fuyao said without any heart: "Mother-in-law, the imperial court has taken back a lot of the property of the Hou Mansion, so ......"

She's telling the truth.

At the mention of this, the old lady's face suddenly became extremely ugly again.

I almost forgot about it.

The old lady took a deep breath, looked at Jiang Fuyao again, and said with some disgust in her tone: "What about your dowry?" Since you have married into my family, your dowry is naturally mine, why don't you know to take it out and subsidize the family? ”

Jiang Fu shook his face, and his tone was even colder: "The dowry has been almost used, and I don't have any money." ”

Although Mrs. Jiang saved a dowry for her early on, when she got married, Mrs. Jiang was no longer there, and the dowry fell into the hands of Aunt Shu, and less than half of it reached her.

What's more, who can not leave a way back for themselves by being a human being.

This Hou Mansion is about to fall, and for Jiang Fuyao, there is no use value, so she naturally wants to find an opportunity to leave.

She has already torn her face with Jiang Baisheng, and the Jiang family is no longer her backing, after she leaves, she can't beg on the street.

The dowry in her hand is her last retreat.

Whatever you say, it is impossible to take it out for the Hou Mansion.

"You don't have any money in your hand, but your mother's family is still in the capital," the old lady's face looked even more disgusted, "Why do you have to teach you every step?" Although you have been married, it is your maiden family after all, if you go back and get some silver, who can say anything? ”

Hearing this, Jiang Fuyao couldn't help frowning: "Mother-in-law, when I got married, I tore my face with my family, how could I go back and ask for money now?" Even if they ask for it, they won't give it! ”

Back then, Jiang Baisheng was so angry with her that she fainted on the spot, her father has always been cautious, and she has no use value, and she knows that it is impossible to help her now, even if she goes back, it is just a humiliation!

"How do you know if you don't try?" The old lady softened her tone, "You have to try, after all, you are the daughter of the Jiang family, it is impossible for them not to help!" ”

This old lady is changing her face quickly!

Jiang Fuyao was so angry that he sat down directly at the dinner table.

Seeing this, Mother Liu hurriedly poured her a cup of tea and respectfully put it in her hand: "Madam, the old lady is also for the good of our Hou Mansion!" Think about it, the food and clothing of the people in this Hou Mansion, why don't you want silver? Looking at the scenery outside, don't you still have to rely on silver to hold it up? Even if you don't talk about it, you are an upright lady of the Hou Mansion, if you go out, you don't even have a row of noodles, isn't it...... Is it a joke! ”

"If you want to save face, it is better to remove some of the subordinates in the Hou Mansion, and the negative ones are all for outsiders to see." Jiang Fu snorted angrily.

She has long been dissatisfied with the extravagance and waste in the Hou Mansion.

There are hundreds of people alone!

Even the concubines in the backyard, in addition to having their own personal maids, each courtyard is also equipped with a special sprinkler sweeper!

In the past, when she looked at it, she only felt that the scenery was infinite, but now she knows that she is distressed.

It's all silver!

"How's that going to work? Such a big Hou Mansion, if there are no subordinates to take care of it from time to time, wouldn't it be deserted? The old lady frowned, "You hurry up, go back and ask for silver after drinking this tea!" I have already looked at a pair of bracelets yesterday, and they cost six hundred taels, so you can ask for them according to this number! ”

After saying that, the old lady got up and left first.

Jiang Fuyao almost gritted his teeth.

No wonder this old thing suddenly wants to check the books.

It turned out that the account book was fake, and I took the opportunity to ask her to go back and get the silver and buy her a bracelet!

What's the situation, but also the bracelet!

Jiang Fuyao looked at the teacup in front of him, endured and endured, and finally shook his hand and knocked the teacup to the ground.

The tea was spilled on the ground, Jiang Fu got up angrily, and turned to leave.

At that time, the old lady took in the movements in the main hall: "This Jiang Fuyao, now his temper is really getting bigger and bigger, and he dares to be so presumptuous in my yard!" ”

Mother Liu also sighed and said, "Our new lady, in terms of temperament and temperament, or the means of governing the family, is far worse than the previous one, alas, ......"

Hearing this, the old lady couldn't help but sigh: "You must have known that you really shouldn't have been like that to Fuyue at the beginning!" Alas! If Fuyue was still there, our Hou Mansion would definitely not end up in the current situation. ”

Liu's mother nodded again and again.

But it's too late to say anything.

The old lady was now left with only regret.

At that time, Jiang Fu went back to his yard angrily and asked Jinxiu to dress up again.

Jinxiu re-tied her hair three times and five by two, but when it came to applying makeup, it was difficult.

Jiang Fuyao's current face is not something that can be washed away by applying some fat powder.

Moreover, because her cheeks were high and swollen, and even one of her eyes was squeezed out of shape, it looked quite funny, which was not something that Jinxiu could handle.

In desperation, Jinxiu had no choice but to say: "Madam, if you don't ask the slave to boil two eggs in the kitchen, let's put it on for a while and then go out!" ”

Jiang Fuyao looked at himself in the mirror and was also taken aback.

"How so?!" She clearly remembers that it wasn't like this before she went out!

No wonder she felt that her eyes were weird, she thought it was her own illusion, but she didn't think that she had become this dignity!

How can you go out!

"Quick! Find a way to reduce the swelling for me! Jiang Fuyao grabbed Jinxiu's hand.

Jinxiu was in pain, and quickly nodded: "Yes!" Slave and maid, go find a way! ”

Hearing this, Jiang Fuyao let go of his hand, and turned to look at himself in the mirror again, with a frightened face.

This, I'm afraid it's not going to break the phase!

Jinxiu quickly came back with the eggs that had just come out of the pot, and carefully applied all the wounds on Jiang Fuyao's face.

After rolling the eggs, the redness and swelling on the face visibly subsided a little.

But if you go out with such a face, if you are seen by outsiders, you have to be laughed at to death!

"By the way, madam, we have a hat, let's go out with a hat!" Splendid has an idea.

Jiang Fu was stunned, and then nodded hurriedly: "Yes!" Hood! Go get the hood! ”

Jinxiu responded, and hurriedly turned around and rummaged through the cabinets to find it.

It wasn't until he put the white hat on his head and was covered by pure white in front of him that Jiang Fuyao breathed a sigh of relief: "...... Let's go. ”
