Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 86 The Shameless One (7)
Su Wan fell back on the kang a little discouraged, and said, "What should we do? We don't have anything now, what else can we do?"

She regretted that she was too careless before, but how did she know that the old hag was so shrewd that she even noticed this little thing.

If she had known this, she would have been more cautious.

No, she must have someone of her own, and she has to change the people in Wangqiu Courtyard, it is imperative to buy someone.But the problem is, she has no money now!Even the only more than 200 taels of silver left to my mother, it can be described as destitute.

It takes time to make money, but she can't wait now.

"Lu Fu, how can I get money quickly?" Su Wan asked.

Lufu thought about it for a while, and finally shook her head helplessly, and said: "Madam, I can't figure it out. If Madam is in a hurry to spend money, I still have some..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Su Wan raised her hand to stop her: "Okay, don't talk about it, you saved up all the money so hard, how can I want it?"

Both the master and the servant frowned and thought about it. After a while, Su Wan sighed, "I might pawn a few pieces of jewelry and use them urgently."

Lu Fu's eyes lit up suddenly, and she said, "Ma'am, I thought of it."

"Say it!" Su Wan urged.

"Madam, besides the dowry, you also have a dowry gift! At the beginning, the dowry gift from the Marquis of Changwu Mansion was added to the dowry list by the Eldest Princess as a dowry gift. Madam, you can definitely get it back, that's what you should do." Yes, it has nothing to do with the British government." Lu Fu said excitedly.

Su Wan's eyes also lit up, she patted her forehead excitedly and annoyedly and said, "Yes! Why didn't I think of this, if I knew it, when Huo Lingyun returned the dowry to me, I should have given it back to me. Keep what’s mine, what a pig’s brain.”

"It's not too late for my wife to come back now."

Su Wan excitedly got up from the kang, held Lu Fu's hand gratefully, and said, "Lu Fu, thank you for reminding me this time, otherwise I really wouldn't remember it. Lu Fu, do you still remember the betrothal gift?" How much dowry is there?"

Lufu shook her head slightly and said: "I don't know about this servant girl. However, it must be indispensable. Generally, the dowry will be given an auspicious number. A family like Changwuhou's Mansion has at least a few thousand taels. Madam, don't worry! "

Both of them were very happy to solve the emergency money problem.

Su Wan was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, so she sent someone to Fangfei Pavilion to invite Huo Lingyun.

By this time, the sky was almost dark.

At this time, Huo Lingyun was supposed to go to Songheyuan to pay her respects and have a meal by the way, but she didn't expect someone from Songheyuan to inform her that Mrs. Tai was not feeling well and told her not to go, so she gave up.

Who knew that the person who had just sent away Songheyuan, Wangqiuyuan came again.

The person who ran the errands this time was Lian Dong, a relatively honest girl, so Su Wan sent her over to invite someone.

Huo Lingyun frowned slightly when she heard that it was someone from Wangqiuyuan. Her stepmother always went to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing, so after thinking about it, she asked someone to let her in.

"Madam, what orders do you have?" Huo Lingyun asked after Lonicera saluted.

Liandong said honestly: "The madam asked the eldest miss to go over, and asked the miss to bring along the betrothal gift list that the Hou's mansion gave to the wife."

Huo Lingyun was stunned when she heard the words.

"What dowry list?" At this time, Mother Hu, who had been receiving Su Wan's dowry, came in, looked at Liandong fiercely and asked.

Although Liandong is honest, she is not afraid of Mama Hu, she said: "The maidservant is only conveying my wife's words, if Mama Hu has any dissatisfaction, you can talk to Madam Hu."

Huo Lingyun raised her hand to prevent Hu's mother from arguing with her, and said, "You go back first, tell your wife that I will go there after dinner."

After Liandong left, Mother Hu finally couldn't help but stepped forward and said: "Miss, I think the little Su family obviously has malicious intentions and wants to take your property, which is left to you by His Highness, you can't Stupid!"

Huo Lingyun said disapprovingly: "No, she probably just wants to get back her dowry. Speaking of which, it really belongs to her, not the British government. It seems that my stepmother really has to plan If you want to break up with the British government, you really don't want to take advantage of the British government."

"With her? How could she have the guts?" Mother Hu said contemptuously.

"She has done everything, so why not dare." Huo Lingyun smiled, "Since this is what my wife wants, then I will do as he wishes." She still doesn't like ten thousand taels of silver.Just a painting in her study is comparable to this price.

Huo Lingyun asked the reluctant mother Hu to take out the dowry list, and the dowry list was also sandwiched in it, and asked her to take a good inventory, and when the warehouse opened tomorrow, she would send it to Wangqiu Courtyard.

Even if Hu's mother didn't want to, she didn't dare to go against Huo Lingyun's wishes, but she made a serious note of Su Wan in her heart and planned to sue her with His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess.

It's a pity that she didn't know that the enmity between Su Wan and the British government had already been very deep. If you have too many debts, you don't have to worry about it. If you have too many lice, you don't itch. No matter how much hatred you have, that's it. Even if she goes to sue a hundred times Su Wan wouldn't care about the situation.

The meeting between Huo Lingyun and Su Wan was quite pleasant, and the work was done happily. She immediately returned the dowry list, opened the warehouse tomorrow, and delivered the things.

Therefore, in Su Wan's eyes, her stepdaughter is much cuter than her mother-in-law.

After Huo Lingyun left, Su Wan looked at the list of betrothal gifts. In addition to the betrothal cakes, three animals, tea and wine, silk and satin, and all kinds of jewelry, the betrothal money she was most concerned about was 660 taels of silver , this is really a great surprise.

Su Wan felt as if she had won a 500 million grand prize all of a sudden, and her head was a little dizzy.

However, Su Wan was only excited for a while before calming down. This is her money for "selling herself", even if she got it back, there is nothing to be excited about!What she should think about now is how to earn more bargaining chips and "redeem" herself.

Because of running around all day, Su Wan soon became sleepy. After washing, she went to bed and fell into a deep sleep.

She slept peacefully, but she didn't know that some people couldn't sleep at night.

Mingzhu moved into Huifangyuan where the concubine lived that night, she had her own room, and besides that, there were two girls serving her, she was very proud of it.

You must know that Tongfang is not a serious concubine, but is just a little better than a maid. Didn't you see Hou Ye's other two Tongfang maids who are still serving in the study until now?What's more, she doesn't have her own yard and maid so far, which is far worse than her.The others also moved in after being promoted to Auntie.
