The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 489

When Xiao Nan heard this, he also looked depressed.

She was not surprised that Sun Ling and Geng Zixi would file a complaint. It was only a matter of time before it happened.

What made Xiao Nan and Cui Youbo angry was that these two bastards chose to go to Jingzhao Mansion today to complain about their grievances. Tomorrow is July 27th, which is Xiao Nan's [-]th birthday.

Damn, these two guys made it clear that they wouldn't let themselves have a good birthday.

Xiao Nan thumped the hidden pouch on his side with all his might, as if he regarded it as those two bastards, wishing he could beat it flat and die.

Seeing that Xiao Nan was so angry, Cui Youbo calmed down instead, stretched out his hand to take his wife's hand, and persuaded softly: "Young lady, don't need to be angry, I leave this matter to my husband, we can celebrate as we like tomorrow, no I have to lose my interest because of these rats and dogs."

Xiao Nan was not so optimistic, she reminded Uncle Cui one thing: "Jing Zhaoke is still in charge of Wei Ji."

She and Ping'an are endless enemies, and the Wei family depends on Wei Liangdi, so they also attach great importance to Ping'an.

The oolong lawsuit in the spring of this year was not brought about by Wei Ji in order to make peace and joy.

Xiao Nan felt that, based on her relationship with Ping An and the Wei family, it would be good if the Wei family didn't make trouble, and would never take the initiative to help.

Think about it, all the guests who came to celebrate her birthday tomorrow have arrived, and the banquet has begun, but the guards from the Jingzhao Mansion came to the door, and they kept saying that they wanted to arrest the thieves who invaded the ancestral property... With such an incident, the couple would definitely fall into ruin. For the laughing stock of the capital.

Cui Youbo grinned, patted the back of Xiao Nan's hand, and reminded: "My lady, how did I know about this?"

No insider tipped off, and they couldn't even hear a word at the moment.

Xiao Nan was startled, then remembered what Cui Youbo said just now, her eyes widened, "You mean, Wei Ji told you about this?"
Cui Youbo seemed to enjoy his wife's surprise, he let go of Xiao Nan's hand, folded his hands behind his head, lay back, and said leisurely: "Exactly!"

There is no permanent enemy in this world.

A flash of self-confidence flashed in Cui Youbo's eyes, he spoke from his heart, he had worked hard for several months, if someone Wei still dared to trip him up now, then his hard work would be in vain.

That's right, in the camp of the Eastern Palace, there are several subdivided forces, but no matter what conflicts of interest they have, their main premise is still the same, that is to protect the Eastern Palace and keep the crown prince.

Only when the prince is upright, their struggle will be meaningful.Otherwise, once the prince loses power, even if they win each other, it will be of no benefit.In addition, their families may be fine, but they themselves will definitely be dismissed from office, and those who are more difficult may even form a group to die.

But the current situation is that everyone in the East Palace knows that Cui Youbo is more and more valued by the crown prince.Although everyone is inevitably jealous, they must also admit that this kid is indeed a bit crooked, and he really helped the prince think of a lot of ideas.

What benefited everyone the most was that Cui Youbo improved the method of salt production, and then joined several big families in Xie County to jointly manage Lake Salt.Because the salt hadn't been released in large quantities before, everyone didn't feel anything.

However, since two months ago, Xie County began to export a large amount of Baihuahua refined lake salt to various provinces across the country.

Immediately afterwards, another cartload of copper coins flowed into the palace.

Of course, to be more precise, it flowed into the East Palace.

When the prince has money, his back straightens up, and his subordinates can also get a lot of benefits.

Drinking water and thinking about the source, Cui Youbo was once again the focus of everyone's attention in the East Palace. The crown prince praised him without a word. As for the others, no matter whether they had good friends with Cui Youbo or had enemies (such as Wei Ji), they all put on smiling faces , and secretly warned himself not to provoke this God of Wealth.

If someone is on the shoulders with Cui Youbo, not only the crown prince will beat him, but even the other staff members of the Eastern Palace will roll up their sleeves and gang up on him!
Therefore, when Geng Zixi sued Cui Youbo and his wife to the government this time, Wei Ji, as Jingzhao, wanted to act impartially and accepted Geng Zixi's pleading.

However, as soon as the front foot received the pleadings, Wei Ji sent someone quietly to the imperial city to find Cui Youbo, and hinted that he knew that tomorrow was the birthday of Xiangcheng Princess, and he suppressed the case for three days before the trial, so that Cui Sheren need not worry. Celebrate your wife's birthday at home.

In addition, Wei Ji postponed the case for another reason, which was to remind Cui Youbo to make preparations quickly, such as destroying all the evidence that should be destroyed.

It can be said that this time Wei Ji did quite kindly, and it was completely impossible to see that he had ever fought against Cui Youbo and his wife.

After listening to Cui Youbo's narration, Xiao Nan finally showed a smile, "Oh, Wei Jingzhao still takes good care of us. I just don't know if Ping An will be angry when he finds out."

Cui Youbo doesn't care about this woman, what he cares about right now is Geng Zixi's lawsuit: "My lady, there is something wrong with this matter, that Geng is just a cowardly rat and dog slave, even if he wants to blackmail, he will first quietly If you contacted us, why did you suddenly make trouble in Jingzhao Mansion?"

This is unscientific, Geng Zixi is not stupid, he knows that his so-called tricks are just fallacies, once he goes to court and angers Cui Youbo and his wife, not only will he not be able to win the lawsuit, he may even end up being kicked out of the capital.

Because, nowadays, there are two ways to maintain order, one is the law, and the other is the patriarchal clan.Sometimes, in some special cases, the patriarchal line can override the law.

Take Geng Zixi's charge against Cui Youbo as an example, both in terms of law and patriarchal clan, they are all untenable.Even if he and Sun Ling are descendants of the old lady, so what?

The reason why the old lady was able to share one-third of the Cui family's property back then was that the official statement was that she had never married, so it was considered the Cui family, and when it was distributed to her, the property did not fall into the hands of others with two surnames.

But Geng Zixi's grandmother is different. Although she is the old lady's biological daughter, her surname is not Cui, she has no inheritance rights, and the most she can get is a dowry.

When it comes to Geng Zixi, he has no right to inherit. Wanting the old lady's property is nothing short of idiotic nonsense.

Of course, if Geng Zixi wants to divide the property of Rongshoutang, there is not no way, that is, counting from his great-grandfather, including his grandfather and father, all of them will be married to the Cui family, and he himself will change his surname to Cui.

But if this is the case, how much property Geng Zixi can get is not up to him to decide.Because, the old lady also has a legitimate heir and grandson, and Cui Youbo, as the heir, not only served the old lady at her bed all the year round, but after the death of the old lady, he also kept filial piety for the old lady beyond the standard for nearly four years.

And during the period of keeping filial piety, the whole family behaved well, without any mistakes, sleeping in thatched cottages, eating vegetarian food, and copying scriptures every day, for four years without interruption through wind, frost, rain and snow.

As for Geng Zixi, who claimed to be the direct descendant of the old lady, he knew that the old lady had passed away, but he never kept a day of filial piety for the old lady.

When such two people PK, almost everyone will side with Cui Youbo.

It is estimated that Geng Zixi also understood this, so he did not show himself, but got Sun Ling to enter Cui's house, trying to test it out step by step, and then negotiated terms with Cui Youbo and his wife, and finally took away the property that 'belongs to him'.

The only thing Geng Zixi can threaten the Cui family is the old lady's reputation.In order not to damage the old lady's reputation of being loyal and loyal, Cui Youbo and his wife could only hold their noses to admit Geng Zixi's blackmail.

But now he stood in the courtroom and smashed the chips with his own hands. Without the chips, the old lady's reputation was ruined. It's no wonder that Cui Youbo and his wife can spare him.

Xiao Nan also fell into deep thought when he heard the words, and after a while, he speculated in an affirmative tone: "Someone is behind the scenes!"

Cui Youbo thought more than Xiao Nan. When he just received the news, he immediately guessed that someone was causing trouble, and he roughly locked on the target suspect.

He nodded, and then said solemnly: "Miss, it's the same sentence, leave this matter to me."

Xiao Nan moved his lips, but in the end he didn't say anything, and nodded silently.

The next day arrived quickly. Early in the morning, the main entrance of the Rongshou Hall was wide open, and the servants were busy going in and out energetically.

It was almost noon, and the guests invited to the birthday banquet arrived one after another. There was a lot of traffic in front of the gate of Cui's house, and various regulated carriages and ox carts blocked the intersection.

In the main hall, Cui's and Xiao's in-laws, as well as the female relatives who had a good relationship with Xiao Nan all rushed over.

A group of old, middle-aged and young women, dressed in fancy dresses, belts and rings, and emerald hairpins, gathered together in threes and fives, chatting with each other and sharing gossip.

Da Furen, Wang Shiwei and others also came.

Originally, Xiao Nan was a junior, so the eldest lady didn't have to come in person, but Xiao Nan was also the princess. Before, the eldest princess had 'reminded' the eldest lady to pay attention to etiquette. The main lady is disrespectful to the court and contemptuous of the clan.

With such a big hat buckled down, Rao Dao Furen couldn't stand it.So, today is Xiao Nan's birthday, so she can only hold her nose.

As an elder, Cui Jiang was much happier. He smiled and congratulated Xiao Nan as soon as he entered the door, and said a few nondescript congratulatory words, such as "turtle and crane prolong the year" and "pine and cypress longevity", only Xiao Nan could not laugh or cry.

However, Xiao Nan still prefers Cui Jiang's "Crazy" to the gloomy lady who pretends to be paralyzed. No one else, it's so lively.

When the eldest lady saw Cui Jiang, a look of disgust flashed in her eyes, she subconsciously snorted, and turned her head, expressing that she didn't know this old and disrespectful miser.

Who is Cui Jiang? How could he not see such obvious dislike from his sister-in-law? With a sneer in his heart, he went directly to the lady's side and sat down on his buttocks—you don't want to see me?Okay, the more you don't want to see me, the more I sit next to you, what can you do to me?

What else can the lady do, be angry.

However, she knew Cui Jiang's rogue nature, so she didn't dare to provoke her easily. It happened that Xiao Nan came over with a few ladies, and she pointed the cannon directly at Xiao Nan, "Xiao Shi, how did I hear that someone went to Jingzhao?" Sue you for usurping the ancestral property?!"

Xiao Nan's complexion changed slightly, and he was about to reply, not wanting Cui Jiang who was beside the eldest lady to speak, she scolded unceremoniously: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by saying this? I know, I think you care about your nephew and wife; I don’t know, but I thought you were trying to make things difficult for Qiao Mu. Really, I’m almost [-], why can’t I speak anymore? It’s Qiao Mu’s birthday today, if you don’t know how to say auspicious words, then don’t say any ..."
