Chapter 46 Shameless
Yuan Zhao only found out about Bai Mianmian's entry into the house on the second day.
That morning, after she had breakfast, the maid next to Mrs. Zhou came to send a message asking her to go to the lobby.
Without thinking about it, she knew it must be about the dowry, Yuan Zhao nodded, but she wanted to see how the Zhou family planned to solve it?
When she passed by, Mrs. Zhou, Zhou's mother, and the second and third wives of Zhou's family had already arrived.
Seeing Yuan Zhao, Mrs. Zhou greeted her affectionately, called her to her side, and held her hand with great care:
"Zhaozhao, are you feeling better?"
"Yesterday, when I heard that you fainted, my grandmother was worried to death."
"Grandma has some good wild ginseng here. You can take it back later to replenish your body."
Madam Zhou looked distressed and seemed completely unaffected by yesterday's incident. People who didn't know it thought Yuan Zhao was her granddaughter.
Yuan Zhao had to admire Mrs. Zhou's ability.
Yesterday, I caused Yongning Houfu to lose so much face. It is really amazing that she can still talk to me like this today.
Since the old woman wants to act, she will naturally accompany her.
The two of them went back and forth and acted out the love between grandparents and grandchildren for a long time. Mrs. Zhou then winked at the second wife, who quickly said:
"Zhao Zhao, my mother has ordered you to pay for the dowry yesterday. You have worked hard these three years, and we will naturally make up for your dowry money."
"Silver is easy to talk about, but those things are probably a little difficult."
"You also know that most of the leather, satin and gemstones have been made into clothing jewelry, which is a bit difficult to deal with."
The second lady looked embarrassed, as if these things were really difficult to handle.
They spent a total of less than 10 taels of cash from Yuan Zhao. Although this was a lot of money, it was just the same for a meritorious family.
Now that the Hou Mansion has returned, the money will come out in a year's time.
The trouble is that those jewelry items have a price but no market.
So, after yesterday's anger, they got together to discuss again and decided to only give money, as for those things that were used, they could be exempted if possible, that's why today's release came about.
Her words have been made clear, it just depends on whether Yuan Zhao will answer or not.
Yuan Zhao naturally answered, but what he said made their expressions change:
"Second Aunt, don't be embarrassed, it's not a big deal."
Hearing this, the second lady's face lit up with joy, but before they could be happy for too long, they heard Yuan Zhao say:
"It's best if those things can be repaid. If they can't be paid, they can be converted into cash. As a family, I won't care too much about you, Second Aunt,"
The smile on the face of the second lady suddenly froze, and the face of the third lady was also not good-looking. Zhou's mother, who had been silent all this time, snorted coldly and said:
"A family? Are you willing to say this?"
"If we are a family, why do you need to worry about these scraps of money with us?"
"Which one of you here is not your elder? Shouldn't the younger generation respect their elders?"
Although the Second Madam and the Third Madam did not speak, it was obvious from their looks that they were speaking in the same way as Zhou's mother.
As for Mrs. Zhou, she had a lively chat with her just now, but now she continued to read the Buddhist scriptures with her eyes closed, turning the beads in her hand, as if she had fallen asleep.
Seeing this, Yuan Zhao couldn't help laughing.
"That's what mother said."
"We're all a family, why bother to hurt the peace for some money."
Zhou's mother thought that it would take a lot of work, so she couldn't help but glance at Yuan Zhao when she heard this. Why did she suddenly become so talkative again?
However, Mrs. Zhou opened her eyes at some point, staring at Yuan Zhao full of scrutiny.
Yuan Zhao ignored everyone's surprise and slowly said:
"If it's okay, I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, she was about to leave. Mrs. Zhou's eyes flashed, and she quickly stopped Yuan Zhao.
She had a bad premonition that if she really let Yuan Zhao leave, she would regret it.
Her intuition has always been accurate, and this intuition has saved her countless times.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Mother Zhou and the others and said:
"It's in vain that you are all elders, yet you say such things."
"Zhaozhao has already paid enough for the Hou Mansion, how can she suffer a loss?"
"She must have nothing less, and everything she uses will be converted into silver at the market price and given to her."
