Doting on concubines and destroying wives? I don’t want to be the mistress of the Hou clan anymore.

Chapter 25 Falling out
"Oh, it turns out you are talking about Chenlou Restaurant," Lin Miaofu said slowly, pretending to be suddenly enlightened, "The restaurant's business is not going well, I have already cashed it out, and I'm afraid I won't be able to pay the bills in the future. "

"I'm really sorry that I haven't had time to report this matter to all the clan members yet!"

Wang's eyes widened: "How could you not discuss such a big matter with us and go out as soon as you say it's right?"

Lin Miaofu looked matter-of-factly: "If the business is not good, of course I have to cash it out. Is it possible that I will lose more money by keeping it in my hands?"

Wang said without hesitation: "This is the property of our Liang family. Why do you cash it out? If you cash it out, where should we go to drink in the future?"

"What the third aunt said makes no sense."

Lin Miaofu raised her eyebrows: "When did the Chenlou Restaurant become the property of the Liang family? This is a dowry given to me by my father, so I naturally have the right to deal with it."

Mrs. Wang said anxiously: "When you marry and obey your husband, it is a dowry, and it is half the price of the Liang family!"

Lin Miaofu looked surprised: "I don't know which law says that the dowry must be distributed to the husband's family. It seems that I have to find someone to ask."

If word of the dowry plot got out, people in the Hou family would be embarrassed.

Mrs. Zheng glared at Mrs. Wang and interrupted quickly: "Miaofu, how can you talk to your third aunt like this? She also feels sorry for you."

"Yes, that's what mother taught me." Lin Miaofu said slowly: "Now, I don't hide it from the elders anymore. The expenses in the capital are really too great, and I don't know how to run it. The big money my father gave me Several stores are losing money.”

"I cashed it all out." Lin Miaofu said: "I used my own money to subsidize the previous accounts. Now, I really don't have much spare money on hand. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you in the future."

"you……"

"Since you are not good at running the business, you have someone who is good at running it. Why don't you give the property to your mother-in-law..." Madam Song said, covering her heart: "Why do you want to exchange the store?"

"Don't aunt and mother know why I cashed out the store?"

Now that the words have reached this point, Lin Miaofu simply said: "The third uncle and the fourth uncle have to pick a real thing from the calligraphy and painting shop every month, and the aunts and sisters-in-law have to pick something real every month. I go to the Jinlou to get jewelry, and as for my cousins, they have to entertain my fellow disciples almost every day..."

"Even if my shops can produce gold, I'm afraid I can't afford your expenses." Lin Miaofu said, "I'll simply cash out the shops and buy some farmland that will be more practical."

"What are you talking about? We... how can we?"

Lin Miaofu shook her sleeves and said coldly: "If it weren't for the fact that you look so ugly, I wouldn't be unwilling to continue to give you some benefits."

"But there are always people who are so naive that they don't even know what it means to give up when something is good. Now that my dowry has been ruined, I still have to keep some money for myself."

The Wang family and the Song family knew that they were in the wrong, and they were both shameless people. If this matter made a fuss, others would only criticize them.

After all, how do you handle your own dowry? Why discuss it with them?
They could only turn to Mrs. Zheng: "Sister-in-law, if... if it disappears, how will we survive in the future?"

"Yes, you also know that the father and son do not have a formal errand until now. Dozens of people in this family are waiting for dinner. How can we live without those things?"

Zheng was also very embarrassed, so she pointed her eyes at Lin Miaofu.

Lin Miaofu, however, drank her tea with her eyes lowered and ignored him.

"Sister-in-law, do you think you can ask Brother Qi to go around the campus and find a job for his brothers, as long as they can support themselves?"

Zheng could only say: "This matter... It's not as good as my saying... Miaofu, what do you think we should do now?" Lin Miaofu pretended to be confused: "Ah? What's going on outside? My daughter-in-law doesn’t understand either, why don’t we ask the Marquis to come back and see what he decides?”

Mrs. Zheng was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she still had to put on an embarrassed look on her face: "Master Marquis is not at home now, so be it, I will discuss it with Master Marquis, and I will tell you at that time."

"I have something else to do. You go back first. If I have news here, I will tell you immediately."

Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Song originally wanted to make trouble again and were waiting for her to give a confirmation.

But seeing the threat in Zheng's eyes, they all resigned immediately.

Zheng and Lin Miaofu were the only ones left in the room.

"Miaofu, I know you have resentment in your heart." Mrs. Zheng said, "But no matter what, we are still a family. You can't ignore everyone's life and death."

Lin Miaofu drank tea and listened silently.

"Do you have to embarrass everyone before you give up?"

Lin Miaofu still didn't speak.

"Although those are your dowry, before the marriage was agreed upon, these were originally paid to my Liang Mansion, and logically they should be in my charge." Zheng's voice gradually became colder: "It is just temporarily recorded in your name. You really shouldn’t handle it privately.”

"Compensation for you?"

This was the first time Lin Miaofu heard this statement.

The people in the Liang Mansion are really shameless to the extreme.

"You are originally from merchants, and you have a Marquis as your son-in-law. You are the one who has high hopes." Zheng said: "Your dowry is to compensate the Liang family. Do you want me to explain it more clearly?"

Lin Miaofu laughed angrily. It turned out that they had always thought so.

No wonder he was not merciful at all when it came to spending her money.

"What my mother said is wrong. These are my dowry, not compensation to the Liang family." Lin Miaofu said: "What's more, I remember that before I got married, I had already given the Liang family a sum of money to use. Those who paid off the Liang Mansion's debts did not enter my dowry list, those were given to you."

"My father originally didn't want to marry me here. It was you who asked me to marry you."

"Why do you think I'm not good enough for you now?" Lin Miaofu said, "In that case, why don't you let mother make the decision and let the Marquis and I reconcile?"

"You!" Mrs. Zheng was angered by this sentence: "What qualifications do you have to reconcile with my son?"

"In our Liang family, there is only divorce, not reconciliation!"

"You are an unvirtuous and unfilial thing. You contradict your mother-in-law and dare to talk about beavers. Tomorrow I will ask the Marquis to divorce you." Mrs. Zheng was so angry that her heart ached and she spoke eloquently: "All those dowries of yours are all You have to stay with me and compensate our Liang family."

"You can actually say this?" Lin Miaofu really underestimated their scoundrels: "Then you can let the Marquis divorce me. As for the dowry, I want to see how dare you to withhold it. !”
