The Prince's Humen's Wife

Chapter 170: Promising Love (4)
"Mom is right. It is really easy for me to kill them now, but they are still of great use."

Mother He raised her eyebrows suspiciously, "This old slave doesn't understand."

Li Chaochao just smiled and asked, "When will the new aunt come in?"

Mother He saw that Li Chaochao didn't want to say more, so she didn't ask any more questions, "She said that after the third girl married to the Lan Mansion, she would bring the new concubine in, or the new wife bumped into the third girl's happy event."

"The first lady has been dead for a year."

Li Chaochao lazily responded, and continued to bow her head to hit Yingluo. She almost forgot that she was reborn for a whole year. This year is really long, as if it happened in two consecutive lives, but it felt like it passed quickly. She clearly remembered The thing that she died in Lan Lingyu's arms happened a few days ago, and yesterday she received a lovesick letter from him. Even if she doesn't like to be sad, she has to lament the impermanence of the world, and decide every step of the way. facing the future.

But she thought of the letter sent by Lan Lingyu before. Lan Lingyu said in the letter that when Xiuniang married, the Lan family would be completely uprooted, and the Li family would inevitably be implicated. Having lost all her family and property, she was able to settle all the hatred in her previous life, so while she was waiting for Lan Lingyu to pick her up, she made a plan for how to fight that old temptress in the Marquis of Wuxiang.

Her mind is active, and the Ying Luo in her hand is flying non-stop at the fingertips. It is impossible to guess the cruelty and poison in Li Chaochao's heart at this time. She really recognizes that she is not a good person, and she is most protective. Yu was her man, so if he tried to make up his mind, it would be difficult for him.

Not knowing what kind of bloody storm will be in the future, Li Chaochao smiled and played with the finished Yingluo in the palm of her hand. She is already covered in blood, so why should she be afraid of the showy body.

In the blink of an eye, it was the twelfth lunar month, the day when the red plums bloomed in the Lan Mansion, and Xiu Niang was finally getting married. The Lan family only sent a small sedan chair to the Li Mansion, leaving from the corner gate and entering through the corner gate. , there is no sound of firecrackers and gongs, let alone banquets, she is just an aunt with a face.

After Mama He finished speaking, she suddenly sighed, "I can't live with my own crimes, she asked for it all."

Li Chaochao's face was sullen, Jinniang and Xiuniang's lives were actually made by themselves, instead of resisting the eldest lady, they tried to think of ways to be jealous, to play tricks on her, and to make her feel half-sympathetic.

She smiled coldly, "This is just the beginning."

Marrying Yu Jinniang and Xiuniang is not a relief, but the beginning of real bad luck. This catastrophe is not only theirs, but also Lan and Li's family.

Xiuniang became the aunt of the Lan family, but the elder didn't care at all. He only wanted to bring the new aunt in as soon as possible. Anyway, the fifth girl had already settled down with the Marquis of Wuxiang, so he no longer cared about the Lan family in Zhenjiang.

But before the new aunt of Li's house came in, a major incident happened at the Lan's house. The payment for goods from the seven shops of the Lan's house in Zhenjiang and Zhuangzi was suppressed, the capital chain was broken, and the foreign debts were not cleared. The family went bankrupt.

That night, Mrs. Chun was invited into the house by Xia He. She smiled and brought a box to her, "Girl, Prince Lan asked me to give this to you."

Li Chaochao raised his eyebrows and didn't ask any more questions. He personally took it over and opened it for a look. It was clear at a glance, then handed it to Qiushuang with a smile, and said, "Pick it up for me."

The people in this room are all Li Chaochao's confidantes, and they all perform their own duties. As the person who manages the accounts and all the money, Qiu Shuang must understand what Li Chaochao has explained. , but it is also considered rich in Zhenjiang, she opened the acceptance inspection in front of Mrs. Chun, her pupils widened suddenly, and she immediately went to look at the fifth girl, but seeing Li Chaochao's very indifferent look, she felt that she had made a fuss again.

Sister-in-law Chun didn't say anything, she bowed and left.

Qiu Shuang was at a loss while holding the box, and said, "Please show me, Miss."

Li Chaochao smiled and stepped forward to poke her on the forehead, "You have seen money before, but it's just a little more than what you have in your hands. Why are you so surprised? You should be my betrothal gift from Prince Lan."

Betrothal gifts... the entire property of the Lan family in Zhenjiang is in this box, seven shops, two villages, and countless fields of various sizes, besides that there are many silver notes, this box is not heavy, To make Qiushuang feel that she can't hold her anymore.

Li Chaochao chuckled, Lan Lingyu, who was about to return to Beijing, emptied the entire Lan family in Zhenjiang, including some that the eldest lady had lent to Mrs. Lan in private, and even the eldest lady's own dowry.

Lan Lingyu wanted to get rid of all her worries, so that he could leave with peace of mind and let her wait with peace of mind.

Li Chaochao's hand swept over the box, if he guessed correctly, the person in Xinlanyuan who is not crazy will be humiliated tonight.

After sleeping until midnight, Li Chaochao was woken up by the sound of footsteps in the yard. Xia He walked in and said briefly: "Girl, the old man stripped the old lady naked and beat him in the snow. The fourth girl came over and said Want to see you."

Li Chaochao was quite surprised that Li Manman was willing to put down his dignity to beg him?
She said coldly: "No see."

Xia He nodded, asked Xiangchen and Qiushuang to guard Li Chaochao, and went out to stand with Mother He, while Dongyue stood in the courtyard to stop Li Manman, "Fourth Miss, our girl has fallen asleep, please go back Bar."

Li Manman has recuperated for a while, and her body is almost in good shape, but she has lost weight all over her body. She no longer has the aloofness and dignity of the past, and has the air of a sickly beauty. She looks very weak, but the insidiousness in her eyes is even more vicious. .

She knew she couldn't beat Dongyue, so she stood in the yard and shouted: "Li Chaochao! I know you're awake! Come out! I want to see you!"

Mother He frowned, "Miss Si, our girl is already asleep, let's talk about what's going on tomorrow! Please come back if you want to be more serious!"

"I know that you are all Li Chaochao's most beloved dogs, so I won't leave, and you can bite me if you have the ability!" Li Manman's face was full of grimness, "Even if she Li Chaochao is going to marry to the Marquis of Wuxiang, in this house, She is just a concubine, a concubine, and I am a concubine, so she should come out and kneel for me!"

Xia He is the calmest person in the yard. Although he is not aggressive, he still has a strong backbone. She scolded coldly: "The fourth girl said that we are mad dogs, but you are the only one who is heard barking here in this yard. It is the so-called beating!" The dog depends on the owner, anyway, the old man is in the back house tonight, so let's invite him to be the master."

As soon as she raised her hand, she said indifferently: "Dongyue, go to Xinlanyuan and invite the elder. I think he's a hit if he hits one, and he hits a pair. He shouldn't care about one more treason!"

Li Manman suddenly saw Li Chaochao's ruthlessness in Xia He's eyebrows, and suddenly felt a bad breath in his chest that he couldn't breathe. Sure enough, every kind of master has such kind of dog!
