Chapter 61 Shameless, asking for a dowry

Ye Shiwen and Zheng Yunzi immediately shut their mouths, turned around and saluted, wondering why Princess Yan Rong cared what they said.

Over there, Princess Lingrong raised her eyebrows and looked at Princess Yanrong, and said with a smile, "You are really abnormal today, they only joked, and Miss Yuansan didn't say anything, why are you so angry?"

Xin Ruo suppressed the anger in her heart, bent down to salute the two princesses, and then left.

When passing by Zheng Yunzi and Ye Shiwen, she said with a smile, "I remember my fourth sister gave you a box of cream today, it was what my fourth sister tried so hard to find.

I don't know how the two of you will feel when you use it, will you feel a little bit uneasy? "

After finishing speaking, Xin Ruofu leaned forward to leave, Ye Shiwen and Zheng Yunzi immediately took out the cream from their sleeves and slammed it into the distance.

Gritting her teeth and looking at Xin Ruo's back, Princess Yanrong nodded secretly at Xin Ruo's upright back.

When Xin Ruo went outside, the carriage she was in was no longer there, only a carriage with a servant was parked there.

Molan, Zilan and Xin You didn't get in the car, six eyes stared at Xin Ruo, Zilan stepped forward and said, "The second girl and the fourth girl are going back first."

Xin Ruo nodded, it's fine to go back first, she doesn't like to see Xin Rou's sobbing appearance, she always thinks that she has done it to herself, so she doesn't have much sympathy, so she took Mo Lan and the others into the carriage, Go straight back home.

If Xin Ruo returned to Yuan Mansion, someone invited them to Chunhui Courtyard, before entering the door, they heard the eldest lady crying there at the top of her voice, wanting to seek justice for Xin Rou.

The tone sounded as if Xin Rou's grievances were given by them, Xin Ruo bit the bullet and entered the room, and saw Xin Ran kneeling on the ground, and Xin Rou's close maid Yu Xin was also kneeling on the ground trembling.

The old lady's face was livid with anger, the ground was covered with broken porcelain pieces, and the bright red carpet was also stained dark red by the tea.

Xin Ruo went forward to salute the old lady and the eldest lady, and then stood there respectfully.

The eldest lady stopped her tears when she saw Xin Ruo, and looked at Xin Ruo sternly, "Why did you come back now? Xin Rou has been wronged so much, you are lucky, you still have time to enjoy the flowers!"

Xin Ruo looked at the eldest lady silently, before walking up to Xin Ran and kneeling down, she explained to the old lady, "Fourth sister has been wronged, but we can't come back without saying a word.

The granddaughter went to bid farewell to Prince Ning, Concubine Ning and several princesses, so she was delayed for some time. She wanted to come back as soon as possible, but the carriage that the servants were sitting in couldn't go fast at all, and there were too many people on the road, so I went Come back late. "

Although the face of the Yuan Mansion has almost been lost, the etiquette that should be given cannot be missed.

The old lady cast a cold glance at the eldest lady, then looked at Xin Ruo and said, "Then Xin Ran said that someone sent you a message that Xin Rou was in danger, is this true?"

Upon hearing this, Xin Ruo hurriedly took out the note in her arms and handed it over, and then said, "Xin You and I don't sit with the second sister and the fourth sister. When the fourth sister leaves the table, I will Not too sure.

When someone sent this note, I saw it with my second sister, and later I took Zilan to look for it, but we lost our way and did not find the fourth sister. "

The eldest lady shot Xin Ran and Yu Xin coldly, "You guard Xin Rou, how can you let her leave alone!"

Xin Ran clenched her teeth angrily when she heard the big lady's accusation. Xin Rou wanted to leave, but she didn't have to follow.

Xin Rou has to be willing, she doesn't have to be scolded by others, she is used to being arrogant, and she has to suffer on her own to be here today, it's too late for her to be happy, let's see if she can be arrogant in the future.

Just as she was thinking about how to answer, the eldest lady pointed her finger at Xin Ruo, "You are all girls from the Yuan Mansion, why don't you sit together.

When I went there, I repeatedly told you to take care of each other. You all ignored my words, didn't you? Now that Xin Rou has been murdered like this, you are happy! "What Xinrou said is all their fault.

Xin Ruo really couldn't listen anymore, so she straightened her neck and looked at the eldest lady without fear, "How is the seat arranged in Prince Ning's mansion? My daughter has no right to comment. Even if I want to sit with my fourth sister, I'm afraid that four My sister is not happy either.

If you don’t believe me, ask Second Sister, on the carriage to Prince Ning’s Mansion, did Fourth Sister ever say that when we arrived at Prince Ning’s Mansion, she told Xin You and me to stay away from her, for fear that we would lose her face. "

As soon as the old lady heard it, she cast her cold eyes on Xin Ran. She believed that Xin Ruo would not lie, but the lady might not believe it, so she had to ask clearly, "Did Xin Rou ever say such a thing? truth."

Xin Ran gritted his teeth, felt the old lady's gaze, and nodded involuntarily, "Fourth Sister did indeed say not to let Third Sister and Fifth Sister follow her."

As soon as Xin Ruo heard this, she knew that this place was basically none of her business, Xin Rou refused to let her follow her, and she could make mistakes if she followed her words and did what she wanted, even if the Da Furen wanted to accuse her, it would not work.

If Xin Ruo knew that something like this happened, the eldest lady must be depressed, but it would be too much to find someone to vent her anger because of the depression. Normally, after such a thing was said, the eldest lady should guard Xin Rou, so why would she have the time to worry about it? Find them to settle accounts.

Shouldn't it be after the fall? It seems that those servants didn't dare to tell the truth.

Xin Ruo thought for a while and said, "We don't know exactly what happened. We have to ask the fourth sister herself. Everyone is watching the show, why she left her seat alone, and she didn't even bring her maid."

Of course the eldest lady knew that Xin Rou had to tell her before she believed it, but Xin Rou kept crying and her eyes were swollen like walnuts, asking her how to ask questions.

And these two concubines are more likely to shirk responsibility than the other, and this matter must be related to them. As long as the eldest lady thinks that Xin Rou has been wronged, she can't wait to blow Xin Ruo and Xin Ran to discourage Xin Rou.

The eldest lady gritted her teeth, her eyes were cold, but she didn't dare to swear openly in the presence of the old lady.

Even now, she doesn't know what happened to Xin Rou, she only knows that she has been wronged, and what kind of wronged she has suffered, those servants don't know when they ask her.

Xin Rou cried like a tearful person, when she asked her, she didn't say a word, she only knew how to cry, she was really anxious to death.

Xin Ruo and Xin Ran were still kneeling on the ground, while Mr. Yuan and Mr. Yuan entered the room with pale faces.

Xin Ruo guessed that he must have heard about the Prince Ning's Mansion. Seeing that the eldest lady was still standing there with a cold face, the old lady couldn't help scolding, "What are you doing there? Why don't you hurry up and prepare the dowry? get married."

Xin Rou will get married in three days?The eldest lady was stunned when she heard that, she couldn't help but looked at the old man, seeing that the old man didn't seem to be joking, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart, and asked, "Who will you marry?"

The old man was so angry that he just wanted to blow the madam's ears. Master Yuan helped the old man to sit down, and then said with a somber face, "Second Young Master of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Just now they were laughed at by their colleagues, and they were pointed at by others on the way back. There were quite a few spectators around the gate of Yuan Mansion. The father and son wished they could find a hole in the ground and enter through the small gate for the first time wearing official uniforms. the government.

"I don't agree, how can Xin Rou marry a bastard," the eldest lady subconsciously spit out upon hearing this.

The old lady supported her forehead, and Mother Wang helped her to comfort her. Master Yuan was almost mad at him to death.

She gritted her teeth and looked at the eldest lady, "You are a good daughter. If you don't want to marry, it is possible that you want to raise her forever! If you are willing, I will send her to guard the family temple right now, as if she was never born!"

After finishing speaking, he turned to Xin Ran, Xin Ruo and the others and said, "You guys have nothing to do here, all go down."

Xin Ruozheng couldn't get what she wanted, so she hurriedly saluted and went out. As soon as she returned to the yard, Mother Su asked worriedly, "But what happened? When the servants went to the storeroom to get the fabrics, they heard rumors from the servants. Fourth Miss, is she really...? "

Xin Ruo naturally knew what she was asking, so she nodded and said, "Don't ask about these things, how much dowry has been made, pack it up, and the lady will definitely send someone to pick it up later."

Marrying within three days is a bit of a mystery, but when something like this happens, it's better to get married as soon as possible to quell the rumors. You must prepare enough dowry within three days. The dowry that was originally prepared for her will probably be used by Xin Rou first.

Zilan puffed up her mouth when she heard this, it wasn't Miss San's fault that such a thing happened, why did she let her go everywhere, and said, "Isn't Da Furen rich, just let her go out to buy it, why should the girl put it away?" Give her something."

Xin Ruo shook her head and said, "I know it's the dowry you prepared for me, but now that something like this happened to Xin Rou, even the old lady would let me take it out first for the sake of Yuan Mansion's face.

Both left and right have to be taken out, so why should I be stingy and let people say that I have no sympathy. "

When Mother Su heard this, she remembered what she had heard in the morning, and she said, "I heard from people in the old lady's courtyard today that the second and fourth girls took your dowry without permission, and each took a set of jade-faced jewelry and a Set of gold face jewelry.

There are also some high-quality cloth and satin, the old lady got angry, except for the ones they took out of the house today, they searched out the rest and returned them back, if the fourth girl really married before the girl.

Be careful, girl, the eldest lady will definitely plan on your dowry. "

Xin Ruo really has a headache, their mother and daughter are really not worry-free, they have to make a mess for them on a good day, the mood is really terrible, but the old lady only asked about her dowry being stolen today, Forgiveness Da Furen dare not have that courage.

What made Xin Ruo even more depressed was yet to come. Not long after dinner, Zhang's mother, who was beside the eldest lady, brought someone to Xin Ruo with a lot of cloth.

He said firmly: "The eldest lady is sick, the fourth girl is not feeling well, the third girl's craftsmanship is good, which is not even comparable to the embroidery workshop, so the eldest lady asked the servant to bring the red silk and the size of the fourth girl, and let the third girl The girl hastened to finish the third girl's wedding dress within two days, and the embroidery workshop will send the blueprint later."
