Reborn Daughter

Chapter 85 Recapturing the dowry, Aunt Ma Fang was fined (2)
"Oh, why is there no way? Kill me, or cut me? You deserve it! Aunt Ma, don't forget who you are. You come from the Shangshu Mansion, but you are a married daughter. The water, now the Minister's Mansion is your heaven and your land, but why do you think about the Minister's Mansion so much? You are just a concubine of the Minister's Mansion, and I let Ding Peng rest because you embezzled the big girl's dowry You, he dare not say anything else, believe it or not!" Mrs. Liu took Ding Zi's hand, her face full of sadness, "I just found out today what kind of life Zi'er lived in the servant's mansion. Go greedy, no one in the mansion will condemn you, but my aunt has a letter, and she will never let you suffer!"

Ding Zi's eyes turned red at the right time, and she shook her head, with grievance and disappointment on her face.

"Madam Hou, the matter hasn't been investigated yet..." Upon hearing this accusation, Mrs. Wang hurriedly wanted to explain.

"Investigate, what else does the old lady want to investigate? Aunt Ma asked for a dowry to prepare for Zi'er's wedding, but now the dowry has been replaced with inferior goods. What else is there to investigate? The old lady can't even figure out this point! "Who can't figure it out, isn't that old and confused!"Wang's eyes darkened, she gritted her teeth secretly, and laughed, "Of course!"

"No, I brought this dowry from the big treasury back then and put it in Lanyue Pavilion. I didn't touch it. In order to ease the relationship with the eldest lady, I paid for some dowry at my own expense. There is absolutely no possibility of being greedy for this dowry. But this The dowry has been passed around several times, so how do you know that there are no mistakes or omissions in it? Besides, my sister died early in the past, and she has always had enough food and clothing in the mansion. Her dowry is rarely touched by anyone. How do you know that there was something wrong with the dowry back then? Woolen cloth?"

There was a flash of light in Wang's eyes, she was right, if she could take this dowry to the Marquis of Huguo's mansion and take the inferior goods to give to her daughter, not only would she not have to pay, but she would also get another share, then..." This... is not impossible!"

"Sister's words are quite reasonable." Aunt Fang also understood in an instant, and followed Aunt Ma's way.

"Hehehe, hehehehehe" suddenly there was a low laugh, and everyone was puzzled, but they saw Ding Zi who was sitting quietly, covering her face with her handkerchief, leaning back and smiling, her clear eyes There is a kind of purity and depth that penetrates all the conspiracies and tricks in the world, and everyone who sees it feels chills in their hearts.Ding Zi kept laughing and laughing, didn't say a word, just kept looking at Wang's Aunt Ma, Aunt Fang, Ding Ning'er, even Aunt Bai, Ding An.

Those eyes are darker and brighter than the purest black pearls, deeper than the world's deepest Tan Shui, and more murderous than the sharpest sword. Everyone just felt that there was a thousand needles piercing in an instant. The feeling of being riddled with sores, even sitting still feels uncomfortable all over, and at the same time, he turned his head guiltily, not daring to look at Ding Zi, and the whole hall of Shou'an Hall just kept echoing Ding Zi's increasingly weird laughter.

After a long time, Ding Zi's laughter stopped, and fallen leaves could be heard in the whole hall, but at the same time, Wang and the others breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a shock behind the sweaty back!When did Ding Zi become so scary?She is just a 13-year-old girl, even if she becomes more powerful, it won't make them look like they are on fire, it's just their guilty conscience, yes, that's all!
Liu took a deep look at Ding Zi who had returned to calm. At this time, she quietly picked up her tea and drank it. Her curly, butterfly-like eyelashes slowly drooped like a small fan, covering all the emotions in her eyes, but although she It was sitting quietly, but it gave people a very heavy feeling, making people keep their hearts tight all the time, and they were afraid of her invisibly.The quieter it is, the more disturbing it is, the more frightening it is for her.It's just a 13-year-old girl, when did she become so deep and imposing, even when she was young, no, even now, she doesn't have the confidence to break other people's hearts so easily.

Mrs. Liu knew that Ding Zi was helping her to continue to deal with the matter, so she snorted coldly: "Aunt Ma's words make me wonder what is in your head, maybe it's because your heart is too dark, and your brain is so smoked Dirty thing. Let’s not care about the eldest girl who has been married to the Minister’s Mansion for more than 13 years, how much her previous dowry and her jewelry have been rewarded to the servants in the mansion. A servant complained about one or two things, how could there be no rumors about it. That is, this dowry has been kept in the mansion for 13 years, and my nephew and niece have never had the chance to use it, but there are big problems in the servant man's mansion. But the first few times Dealing with it, isn't there a one-to-one handover in the mansion, so how could any problem not be discovered at once? Why did something happen after Aunt Ma took it, I think Aunt Ma should give a reasonable explanation!"

"Madam Hou also said that the dowry has been handed over several times, and if there is any problem, it may not only be my problem."

"No, I only believe in real evidence, which is the real dowry! As long as someone is sent to search the Minister's Mansion, all rumors will be self-defeating!"

"Madam Hou, are you kidding? Although you are Madam Hou, you are not qualified to search an official's residence. No matter how high your status is, you can't insult the servant's residence like this!" Aunt Ma immediately stopped, but when she saw Mrs. Liu When there was a smile in his eyes, his body shivered abruptly.

"That's right, Madam Hou, it's too much to do this, and you don't think I'm an old lady too much." Wang's face was dull, and Liu's power was given to her as soon as she entered the house, and she wanted a dowry again. He hit someone in front of her again, but he didn't take her seriously.Wang has struggled for so long in her life, but she is only the mother of a fourth-rank civil servant. Ding Peng has no outstanding achievements in the court, and she is not even qualified to fight for her imperial order. Because there is nothing, there is nothing that highlights her identity. The most important thing is face status.Being trampled by Mrs. Liu time and time again, her old face can no longer be described as black, it is simply pale!

"Yes! Of course not! Speaking of it, what Aunt Ma said is not unreasonable. This dowry has been transferred several times, and I don't know where it was lost. Fortunately, my ancestors in Daqi are wise and powerful, and the emperor loves the people even more now. My son, the most intolerant of corruption in the court. Da Qi, who embezzled the deceased woman’s dowry, has also handled several major cases. Oh, what happened to those people in the end? Not only was the dowry found, but they were also exiled or even Some greedy ones pretended to be military prostitutes to condolences to the soldiers on the front line. I said that it was a good deal for them, and they left such a good name after death! Hehehe..."

Aunt Ma's face turned pale, and she stared at Mrs. Liu with wide eyes in disbelief. Aunt Fang, Mrs. Wang, also turned pale. Mrs. Liu continued slowly: "So I can't explain this matter clearly. The Minister's Mansion is also an official family. The mansion, it’s really not good for me to search. Let my servants of the Huguohou mansion take my post to Jing Zhaoyin. Anyway, the dowry is still here, and I have never been out of the minister’s mansion. As long as he sends an escort After a search, we can immediately tell whether it is true or false, and you and I have solved the doubts without your help, which seems fair." Liu took out the post and gave it to the maid behind her, who raised her leg and asked for help. Walk.
