Houmen Yixiang

Chapter 99 The Unexpected Person Who Has Misconduct About the Dowry
What nonsense are you talking about?

Xiao Yichen narrowed his eyes, "Little monkey, did you practice today?"

The little monkey slapped his own mouth annoyed, talking too much, who told you to talk too much?Will you die if you don't speak?If you just go back to your room and sleep without saying a word, why do you have to talk so much to remind the young master of this matter?
"Master, look at today's Mid-Autumn Festival, isn't it..." Excuse me?The little monkey's breath rose to its throat.

Someone paused in a light tone, "I almost forgot, it's a holiday today."

The little monkey breathed a sigh of relief.

"An hour is reduced by a quarter of an hour."

"Master!" The little waiter gasped in dissatisfaction.

"Do you think it's too little? Then..."

"No, no, I mean, the young master should go back to his room first, and I'll go to practice right away!" The little monkey immediately jumped away.

A quarter of an hour less is a quarter of an hour less, it is better than extra time!
Is he too spineless?
As the little monkey left, the slow-walking people stopped slowly, rewinding everything they had just seen in their minds.

He heard the song, he saw the dance, the song was beautiful, the dance was beautiful, but all of these did not stay in his mind for too long.

There is only one picture in his mind.

A beautiful picture in this world that cannot be described with pen and ink, and cannot be described in words.

Under the white moonlight, the beautiful woman with a smile on her lips is leaning lazily and gracefully on the swing, her slender white hand is holding the swing rope, the moonlight is shining on her whole body, she is picturesque and independent.

Xiao Yichen shook his head, trying to get the picture out of his mind, but found that the picture seemed to be fused into his blood, and he couldn't get it out of his mind.

At first he was quite annoyed, but slowly, like someone threw a small stone into the middle of the lake, the ripples rippled from his heart, a very strange emotion crossed his chest collarbone, neck and chin, and stopped on his lips.

Thin lips, inadvertently evoked a little curvature.

The gloom and sorrow brought back from the Zhen Guogong's mansion were completely eroded by that strange emotion, leaving nothing behind.

It's a strange feeling, but it's not annoying at all.

After this thought flashed in Xiao Yichen's mind, the skirt of his robe moved slightly, and he went back to the room.

-

General's House.

Li Yu drooped her head and knelt on the bluestone floor in the Sifu courtyard. A woman in a dark purple dress was sitting on the ground and crying loudly regardless of her image.

His face was full of snot and tears, and his facial features were deformed by crying, and his appearance could no longer be seen clearly.

"Mother, you have been crying for half an hour, why don't you stop crying?" Seeing that Xiao Dong's voice was hoarse, Li Yu couldn't help but feel distressed.

Little Dong was so angry that he kicked hard in Li Yu's direction, but he looked so hard, but he was far away and couldn't reach him at all, "You bastard! If you don't want your mother to cry again, immediately take back what you just said! "

Li Yu's neck twitched, "It's hard to follow a big man's word, since my son said he wants to marry the fourth lady of the palace, he must marry her! You can't break your promise!"

"So you have the heart to watch your mother cry to death?" Little Dong was so angry.

Li Yu licked his face, "Mother, you are going to cry to death, who will take care of your son in the future? You don't want to lose your grandmother before your grandson is born, do you?"

"I see that you are clearly trying to piss me off so that you can marry Gong Jin!" Little Dong roared, "Don't even think about it! I'll go to the Guangping Marquis Mansion tomorrow to make a fuss and see who has no face!"

"Mother!" Li Yu knelt and moved two steps towards Little Dong, "If you want to make trouble, just step on your son."

"You bastard, do you really think I'm not willing to part with you?!" Little Dong was threatened again, so angrily, she stepped on Li Yu's shoulder, and Li Yu yelled from a long distance away, " Mother, use less force, it hurts, it hurts!"

Seeing his pretentious appearance, Xiao Dong was angry and funny, but finally he was reluctant to step on him and withdrew his foot.

The son has his own opinion in front of her. Although the means are a little disgraceful, he finally insists on his own, and no longer accepts all her demands just because she cries twice. Little Dong is both happy and sad about this.

Of course, the happy thing is that her son has started to be independent. After she and her parents-in-law are gone, she can support the general's mansion.

Sadly, her son's change was actually due to an old woman who couldn't get married!
It's too much!I don't know what kind of enchantment that old woman used to her son to make him determined to marry her!
Her son is so handsome, so good, so obedient and so kind, even if he wants to marry the princess, she is willing to go to the palace to petition, and shamelessly ask the emperor to marry the princess to the general's mansion!

but…

Little Dong's heart ached, she must not just watch her son marry an old woman back!
"Ah Yu," Xiao Dong's face turned cold, her face was three points similar to Li Yu's, she was beautiful and fierce, she didn't cry or make trouble, "I don't agree with this matter no matter what!"

"Mother, do you just have the heart to watch your son go on a hunger strike?" Li Yu pursed his lips, showing a pitiful look, "My son is a little hungry now."

Little Dong's heart ached, but he said cruelly on his face: "If you are obedient and obedient during this time, when your grandfather comes back during the Chinese New Year, if he agrees, I will agree! But if you still dare to poke my heart with a hunger strike, I will I will die in front of you now!"

Li Yu's face turned pale with fright, and he quickly crawled over to help Xiao Dong, "Son, listen to mother, be obedient during this time, and wait for grandfather to come back! Mother, don't be as knowledgeable as your son."

Little Dong glared at him angrily, followed his hand and stood up.

I snorted coldly in my heart, boy, if you want to fight with your mother, you are still too tender!

This is just Xiao Dong's expedient measure. It is absolutely impossible for her to agree to Li Yu's marriage to Gong Jin, but she is not willing to beat him, and she is afraid that he will starve him because of his stubborn temper, so Xiao Dong used the strategy of slowing down the army to coax Li Yu down first.

It was only August [-]th, and there were still four months before Old General Li returned to Beijing. In these four months, she vowed to break Li Yu's determination no matter what!

-

Early the next morning, Lu Xinyan began to rummage through the boxes.

After a night of Mid-Autumn Festival, she packed up her mood and wanted to see how much her dowry was, which made people miss it!

Not only the people in the mansion, but also the people outside the mansion!
After looking around for a long time, I couldn't find the legendary dowry slip.

Sitting on the bed thinking about it, closing my eyes and calling out the memories over and over again.

It seems that when the original owner first came to the Hou Mansion and lived in Feng's courtyard, after a certain illness, she gave the brocade box containing the dowry list to Feng's for her to keep.

The reason is: too much trouble.

Lu Xinyan sighed.

She actually seldom sighs.

The original owner's mother was able to network so many capable people and pave the way for the original owner. She must be a rare and strange woman.

But when it comes to education, there seems to be a big problem.

Even things like the dowry list can be handed over without blinking an eye, which shows how much money is treated like a foreign object by being raised.

If Feng Shi had the heart to change the dowry list quietly, without anyone noticing it, she could lose half of her dowry and leave.

Although the Lu family had a backup, the original owner, with his naive and stupid nature, would have thought of something wrong with the dowry, so would he go back and check the bill?

However, although the original owner is stupid, a fool has a good life. There is a mother who considers everything for her, and there is a Feng family who does not forget the life-saving grace of the past.

Lu Xinyan called Bai Zhi, "Bai Zhi, come with me to greet grandma."

When Feng gave her the ledger, he didn't give her the dowry list.

Maybe it was thinking that it would take her a while to sort out the books.

Or have any other ideas.

After yesterday's mentality adjustment, Lu Xinyan didn't bother to guess. No matter what the reason for Feng's handing it over, since she handed it over, she would simply take it back.

-

In the Fushouyuan, Gu and Lian are now frequent visitors because they are jointly in charge of the house.

In the past, it was enough for Feng Shi to ask them to come to visit Ci'an for three days. Now, whether it is because of something to report in the mansion, or to win Feng Shi's favor, Gu Shi and Lian Shi will definitely show up at Fushou Yuan early every morning.

But today is a little different.

A few days ago, he was busy praising Feng's family, and pulling Lu Xinyan and Gong Jin well, but today it changed completely.

As soon as Lu Xinyan entered, she heard Lian Shi, who was wearing a dark blue skirt, say, "Second sister-in-law, the millet porridge that was delivered from the kitchen this morning tastes weird. I wonder if the millet has gone bad. Qian'er didn't eat much. I just presume that I don’t want to eat it, you know she used to like it the most, she can drink two bowls with one meal, but she couldn’t drink half a bowl this morning.”

Since the Lien family joined the family, their attire has also changed, and the colors and styles are more dignified and stable, so as not to make the subordinates look down upon them.

Gu's face froze, "Is Qian'er not feeling well? Then quickly invite a doctor to come and take a look. Summer and autumn alternate, and it's cold in the morning and evening. If you don't pay attention to the cold in the stomach, you will lose your appetite."

"Second sister-in-law reminded you rightly. If Qian'er still can't eat at noon, I'll ask the doctor to come back and have a look." Lian Shi secretly curled her lips, unexpectedly, after Gu Shi took charge of the house, this person is much smarter, "But Second sister-in-law, Qian'er has always been in good health, and my husband and I valued her very much. She was not allowed to eat cold melons and fruits long ago, and told the maidservant to wait on her clothes in the morning and evening, so the possibility of catching a cold is extremely small. So the kitchen Second sister-in-law should let people see if there is something wrong with the millet in the house, or if someone is shoddy and taking advantage of it."

"Two days ago, I went to the kitchen to check all the ingredients to make sure everything was fresh! But since the third brother and sister mentioned it, I'll go and have a look later, so I can't tell if there is really that cunning person secretly obstructing it."

Mrs. Gu smiled honestly, "Speaking of the weather changes, Meier has coughed a few times in the past two days. I asked the maid next to her in the morning, and she said that Meier was growing fast, and last year's autumn clothes didn't fit well. My son was afraid of being laughed at, so I kept wearing this year's summer clothes and caught a little cold."

This good second sister-in-law, it seems that she really underestimated her before!Not only can she block back her words, but also know how to fight back. I don't know if it was deliberately hiding my clumsiness in the past, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, or if someone is teaching her behind her back and deliberately opposing her.

Lian Shi gritted her teeth, forced a smile and said: "The sewing room is already rushing to work, but the rules of making clothes in this mansion are generally that the mother-in-law, the eldest sister-in-law of the Hou Ye, and the eldest son, Zhuzhuyuerrouer, come to us later. This rule can't be changed, so it's a bit slow. But second sister-in-law, don't worry, as soon as Rou'er's clothes are finished, I'll let the sewing room rush out Meier's autumn clothes first."

Although the second room of the Gong family is not separated, the children are orderly, and if there is anything good, it must be close to the Hou Ye's side first, and then go to the second old man's side for a few rooms.

Feng thoughtfully, "We are all young masters of the Hou Mansion, this rule can be modified appropriately. Houye Yu'er and I will basically not change in shape, and Meier Jieer still has a few younger ones who are growing up. The body shape changes every day, and the tight ones are made first. If the sewing room is too late, go outside and buy two bodies first, so as not to freeze the children.”

Finally, Feng said meaningfully: "This is the future hope of our Houfu."

Jiang Shi was imprisoned in the Buddhist hall, Feng Shi didn't even want to mention her, so autumn clothes and winter clothes naturally didn't belong to her!

Lian's face tightened, "Auntie is right, my niece and daughter-in-law will remember."

Gu Shi was secretly happy because Lian Shi was criticized implicitly. Seeing that Lian Shi had a correct attitude on the surface, he hurriedly followed and said, "My niece and daughter-in-law also remember that, from now on, my niece and daughter-in-law will definitely send someone to check the ingredients in the kitchen once a day."

If it was summer, it would not be too much to send people to check twice a day, but now in autumn, the weather is getting colder and the storage period of food is getting longer and longer, so why send people every day?

Feng opened his mouth, but finally swallowed it, without saying anything.

"Grandmother is in good spirits today." Lu Xinyan said with a smile.

"How long has Zhuzhu been here? Grandma doesn't even know." Feng Shi turned her head, and Lu Xinyan was standing by the curtain, walking towards her.

"I just came here. I saw my grandmother was busy with business, so I waited for a while." Lu Xinyan said to Gu Shilian with half annoyance: "The two cousins ​​are really serious. They made grandma worry about it early in the morning. Since grandma let her cousin Our housekeepers, of course we can trust you, some unimportant matters are discussed and resolved in private, so that grandma can worry less and enjoy more blessings."

The smile on Gu's and Lian's faces immediately became unnatural, and he didn't know what to think in his heart, so he just said: "Hehe, what Zhuzhu said is true. But when we took over for the first time, we were always afraid that something might not be done properly, so we thought I asked my aunt for advice, but I forgot that my aunt is not in good health and needs to rest more."

Lu Xinyan half-truthfully dismissed the two of them, and saw that the two had a good attitude, so she let it go, "Grandma, it's time to give the needle."

Of course she knew that Gu's and Lian's' actions were all for the ownership of the family in seven days.

Why did the Feng family come up with such a method and what purpose did Lu Xinyan refuse to comment on.

But since she bumped into the secret confrontation between the two, she naturally wanted to speak up as an outsider.

Gu's and Lian's got up quickly, "The niece and daughter-in-law go to work first, so don't disturb my aunt's rest."

After the two left, Lu Xinyan supported Feng Shi to lie down, and then said naturally: "Grandmother, Zhuzhu remembers giving you the dowry list earlier, do you remember where it is put? Zhuzhu Chuchu took over the dowry and wanted to count it Fan has a bottom line in his heart."

Feng Shi was startled, and then said: "You're right, but grandma didn't think carefully, and only gave you the account book, not the list. Since it's a handover, you should check it carefully."

"Grandmother, where did you go? Why did you hand over and check it? Zhuzhu will feel sad when you say that." Lu Xinyan complained coquettishly: "It's Zhuzhu who is impatient and can't tolerate sand in her eyes, so she wants to be whole." Let's take a look!"

Her appearance was not fake at all, her smile was pretty and sweet, and her eyes were clear. After looking at her for a long time, Feng couldn't tell whether she was telling the truth or trying to make things happen, so he smiled and said, "Grandma is wrong."

Then he opened his mouth to call Nanny Sun, and told her to fetch a brocade box of carved mahogany.

Grandma Sun replied yes, and quickly brought a beautifully crafted box from the ear room next door.

The brocade box is spotless, and it seems that someone wipes it often.

A golden lock was pinned to it, and Feng took something from around his neck. A golden key was wrapped around one end of the red string, "This is the key to the box, and the list is inside."

Lu Xinyan took it casually, tucked the key into the sleeve, and put the box aside. She looked like she didn't take it to heart, and smiled in her eyes, "Grandmother, lie down, Baizhi is going to give you an injection."

The brocade box was lying on the side alone, like an abandoned child, since Lu Xinyan put it aside, no one has looked at it again.

But the four people in this room all knew in their hearts how heavy this brocade box is!

It is all because of it that the Jiang family has fallen into the land it is today; it is also because of it that Lu Xinyan was sent to the village village, and her temperament changed drastically after returning.

In Feng's countless careful thoughts, more or less half of this brocade box is involved.

No one looks at it, but they all have it in their hearts.

After Feng Shi pulled out the needle and fell into a deep sleep, Lu Xinyan left the Fushouyuan with the brocade box and Bai Zhi.

At this time, the sun outside started to heat up, and Lu Xinyan, who came out of the room, felt a glare, so she couldn't help but stop and stretch out her hand to block it.

"Miss, let me carry the box for you." Bai Zhi said.

Lu Xinyan shook her head, "It's okay, go back to the pomegranate yard."

Back in the pomegranate courtyard, Lu Xinyan sat under the sun umbrella and opened the brocade box that had been coveted for a long time.

She didn't read the contents of the account book that Feng gave her earlier, but she probably knew what property it had from looking at the cover.

Tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, several tea houses, orchards, restaurants, grain stores, manors, seafood, wood stores... spanning more than [-] different industries, and there are some specially used for rent collection.

Its scope is not only in the capital city, but also in the prosperous towns of the entire Tianwu Kingdom, at least half of the towns have her property.

In addition to these industries on the dowry list, there are also fixed assets without income, such as jewelry, jade, antiques, calligraphy and painting, etc.

Lu Xinyan took out the list inside, unfolded it carefully, and found that although the amount of dowry written on it was large, the industries that needed to be operated were less than one-third of the account.

She thought for a while, reached out and knocked, the box echoed clearly, and there was indeed a sandwich.

The paper in the interlayer was gently pulled out, and when it was unfolded, the familiar font, carrying the warm memory that had been forgotten for a long time, rushed towards my face.

Lu Xinyan's nose became sore uncontrollably.

This is the dowry written by Lin Ruyue, the original owner's mother.

The strokes are neat and neat, because the list is too long and time-consuming, the color of the fonts at the beginning and the end is very different.

Lu Xinyan could almost imagine that Lin Ruyue started writing this list under the lamp at some time.

What kind of mood did she have at that time?

It must be heartbroken, proud and worried, trying to do everything possible to give the best to my daughter, but found that no matter how much I give, it is not enough.

So the same thing, in countless nights, add little by little.

Seeing more and more dowries, the sadness in my heart has not dissipated. Instead, because my health is getting worse and worse, I feel guilty for not being able to earn more dowry for my daughter...

As Lu Xinyan thought about it, she read page by page. The dowry list was very thick, with more than ten pages.

After watching it, the whole person was shocked.

In addition to those operating industries that she already knew, the amount of fixed assets was also frighteningly large.

If it is used as a house, it can take up almost one-third of the Guangping Marquis Mansion.

Therefore, those fixed assets are stored in different banks.

She made a preliminary estimate of the total asset value, at least 200 million taels, which is about the national treasury income of the Ming Dynasty for a year.

According to the previous 1000 taels, you can buy a nice small house in the capital. With the 200 million taels, I'm afraid you can buy at least one-fifth of the capital.

That is to say, it is almost possible to buy a moderately large province among the ten major provinces of Tianwu Kingdom, and become king independently.

No wonder there are so many people coveting her dowry!

It's so scary!
Lu Xinyan was still in shock, and Mr. Li came over with the account book, "Miss."

"What's the matter, Mr. Li?" She calmly put the dowry slip back into the box and asked with a smile.

Since Mr. Li had secretly helped Lin Ruyue manage the accounts, he naturally knew exactly how much property she had in her hands, and she had nothing to hide.

"Most of the books have problems." Mr. Li said: "It's a real problem."

Lu Xinyan said with a smile: "Mr. Li, please tell me in detail."

"Take the main store of Liu's Restaurant in Beijing as an example. Liu's Restaurant is a time-honored brand in Beijing, and its popularity ranks among the top ten in Beijing. There are a lot of customers every day, and the flow of various materials is very fast. You can do anything at any place. The harvest is quite rich." Mr. Li said: "For example, the eggs cost two pennies for a penny outside, and four pennies for a penny in a restaurant. It seems to be okay, but according to the ledger of the Lin family tea house in the capital, the price of eggs is one penny. three.

This tea shop is mainly engaged in tea, and occasionally sells some small snacks. The quantity of eggs needed is not much, but the price can be negotiated to three pennies. Judging from the daily flow of this restaurant, it should be at least four pennies per penny to be reasonable.This restaurant consumes about [-] eggs a day, and [-] cash is stolen every day, and [-] cash a month, [-] taels of silver, can hire three or four more small workers. "

Most of the property that Lin Ruyue earned did not bear her surname, but was secretly manipulated.

Perhaps it is because they are afraid that the tree will attract the wind and attract people's envy, so they use this method of dispersion.

Lu Xinyan frowned lightly, "There has always been a problem with the account of Liu's restaurant, or..."

Mr. Li secretly praised, this little girl's reaction is really quick!

"The old lady only has three years of account books in her hands. I have read the accounts of these three years. There were problems from the beginning, but the person who made the accounts was very careful. The price increased by a small amount every half a year. It is difficult to see the problem every month. If It's not according to the lady's request, but from the beginning to the bottom, it is difficult to find the problem when comparing the current situation with that of three years ago." Mr. Li said: "However, the accounts in the past few months are more obvious, but last month, it has been somewhat restrained."

The problem has been there since the Feng family took over, and it has been done very carefully. It was obvious in the past few months, and it has converged in the last month...

This Liu's restaurant is really bold!

Lu Xinyan guessed that it seemed that the problem started when Feng Shi took over, but the changes in the ledger issue were surprisingly consistent with the time when Feng Shi was in good or bad health.

When he learned that Feng's health was deteriorating and his energy couldn't keep up, the account book problem was serious; when he learned that Feng's health was improving, he began to restrain himself...

However, Feng's health has been poor for several years, and Liu's Restaurant is located in the capital, so it's not surprising to know this news.

The strange thing is that outsiders don't know that Feng's condition has started to improve since Bai Zhi took over the treatment last month. How did Liu's Restaurant know about it in the first place?

Unexpectedly, in this Hou's mansion, someone actually extended his hand to her property!

"Understood, Mr. Li." Lu Xinyan said, "I'll go and see for myself in a few days."

"Miss wants to see it in person?" Mr. Li was a little surprised.

Lu Xinyan said: "You have to go and see your own property in person, you can't see it from a distance, and you can't ask questions about those in the capital."

Mr. Li paused, "The lady should be careful when she goes to see it. Not many people know about the properties under her name."

"I understand, Mr. Xie Li reminded me that for the time being, I just take a casual look and won't interfere." Lu Xinyan said, "As for other property issues, please ask Mr. Li to send someone to take a look."

Lin Ruyue has worked hard and tried her best to leave these properties for her, just to give her a stable rest of her life, and she will try her best to keep them no matter what!
After finishing the meal, Lu Xinyan was about to take a nap, when Madam Lu came to report: "Miss, the fifth young lady and the fifth uncle are here, Hongxiao is ordering you to come by the old lady's order."

Lu Xinyan really doesn't like these two people, but since the Feng family sent someone here, she must do something to save face.

She ordered: "Let Qingtong go with me."

"Yes, Miss." Nanny Lu exited the room.

Lu Xinyan took Qingtong to the Fushouyuan, and when passing the small garden, she heard Gong Jin's slightly angry and suppressed voice from a distance, "Cai Yuanyu, you are shameless, I want shame, don't pester me anymore, this is the Guangping Houfu !"

Cai Yuanyu?Lu Xinyan remembered Cai Yuanyu's attitude towards Gong Jin on the night of Qixi Festival, and hurried over.

Before approaching, Cai Yuanyu said affectionately: "Jin'er, I was wrong last time in my house, I shouldn't try to force you. But I was also angry for a while, angry at your cruel heart, I know Wrong, can you not be angry with me?"

Lu Xinyan paused, the last time Cai Yuanyu of Marquis of Wuyang wanted to use force against Gong Jin?Why haven't you heard of this?

Gong Jin took two deep breaths and said coldly: "Fifth brother-in-law, I admit that I had feelings for you before, but after knowing that you and Gong Qing secretly exchanged songs, I have given up on you! I don't want to marry, It's not for you, but it's because I've grown old after serving my father, and I can't find a suitable family, and my mother is not in good health, so I gave up the idea of ​​getting married."

Cai Yuanyu immediately said: "I know that I harmed you. You were the one who originally had a marriage contract with me. If I hadn't done something wrong first, if I could wait for you to finish your filial piety and marry you, you wouldn't be here now You are alone, so Jin'er, give me a chance to redeem my sins, okay? Although I can only give you the position of equal wife, I will definitely give you the most love and treat you as the only wife in my heart!"

"Take it as the only wife in your heart?" Gong Jin smiled sarcastically, "What about your body? Are you willing to give up those Yingyingyanyans at home and outside?"

Cai Yuanyu licked his face and said, "Jin'er, it's very common for a man to act and have fun, as long as I have you in my heart, isn't that enough?"

Shameless, shameless!I have never seen such a shameless man, the heart belongs to you alone, and the body belongs to everyone!

Lu Xinyan was amazed!
Gong Jin glanced at him, and suddenly said thoughtfully: "Cai Yuanyu, apart from my status as a concubine of the Hou family, Gong Jin is not as good as any aunt in your courtyard in terms of appearance, temperament and talent. I know this well. Even though you and I once had friendship because of the marriage contract, but you can be affectionate to me on the one hand, and you can get involved with Gong Qing immediately on the other hand, no matter how deep your affection for me is, there is a limit to it! Now you are pestering me again and again For me, what is the purpose?"

Cai Yuanyu didn't expect her to say such a thing, he was stunned for a while, and then squeezed out an affectionate and slightly stiff smile, "Jin'er, what purpose do I have? It's just because I have you in my heart, and I want to make up for you because of guilt. ,You think too much."

Gong Jin ignored him and continued: "You are the fourth master of the Marquis of Wuyang. Although you will not be able to enjoy the present after the separation, your elder brother and elder sister have always loved you and will definitely take care of you more. Your career will not be bad in the future! She is the eldest daughter of the Guangping Hou Mansion, but Gongqing is also the young lady of the Hou Mansion. The eldest brother has limited talents. In the future, the Hou Mansion will be just an empty shell! So even if you marry me as a flat wife, it will have no effect on your future benevolence. No help! Then why do you insist on marrying me? Even wanting to destroy my reputation and force me to submit?"

In the end, there is an aggressive momentum.

Cai Yuanyu didn't know whether it was a guilty conscience or why, but she was forced to take two steps back, "Jin'er, you think too much, you really think too much! I want to marry you because I have you in my heart, and I can't forget you for so many years..."

Lu Xinyan couldn't listen anymore, so she deliberately raised the volume: "Si Gu, are you there?"

Gong Jin glared at Cai Yuanyu, seeing an outsider coming, Cai Yuanyu took a few steps back in embarrassment.

Gong Jin turned her head and saw Lu Xinyan smiling and said: "Zhuzhu, are you going to see your mother?" His face has returned to normal.

"Yes, Fourth Aunt." Lu Xinyan walked over with a smile, and was taken aback when she saw Cai Yuanyu, "Hey, Fifth Uncle is here too."

Cai Yuanyu was quite uncomfortable and said: "I just finished watching my mother-in-law, and I was a little bored when I came out for a walk, and I happened to meet Fourth Sister and chatted for a while."

Gong Jin snorted imperceptibly, took Lu Xinyan's hand, "Zhuzhu, I'll go with you."

Lu Xinyan answered: "The fifth aunt is free, Zhuzhu and the fourth aunt will go to see the grandmother and the fifth aunt."

"Oh, okay, you go slowly, I will walk around alone."

Several people walked in different directions.

Gong Jin looked back and saw that Cai Yuanyu was no longer there, and said softly: "Did you hear it just now?"

"I heard it." Lu Xinyan didn't hide anything, and said seriously: "Just now he said that he wanted to force you when he was in Wuyanghou's Mansion last time. Was it on July [-]th? Why didn't you mention it, Fourth Aunt?" ?”

Gong Jindao: "That day he asked the servant girl to trick me out, and he also asked someone to take Qiuhua away and let me place an order. At that time, I angered him by speaking harshly... Fortunately, Mr. Li from the General's Mansion appeared and called for me. Run away from him, it’s just a false alarm.”

"Li Yu?" Lu Xinyan asked in surprise.

Gong Jin nodded, "That's right. Later, he asked you to send incense to scare me. This kid is really kind-hearted and careful. Before, I believed the rumors and misunderstood him."

child?Lu Xinyan's face twitched, Fourth Aunt, do you know that the child you are talking about is going on a hunger strike at home to try to trick you!
"Si Gu, between you and Cai Yuanyu..."

"A Niang and Mrs. Cai are on good terms. I have been engaged to a baby kiss since I was a child. I can be regarded as a childhood sweetheart and a childhood sweetheart. Originally, the two families agreed to let me marry him when I was sixteen. Who would have thought that my father would suddenly marry him?" After my mother passed away, A Niang fell ill, so I discussed with him to get married after I finished three years of filial piety.

Originally, the Cai family had no objection, but he suddenly regretted not agreeing, and insisted on marrying me within a hundred days, otherwise he would rather give up the marriage!I was suspicious, and after inquiring secretly, I found out that he had been with Gong Qing a long time ago, and promised to marry Gong Qing as his wife after I passed the door.I have a strong temper, after knowing this kind of thing, how could I still marry? "

There was a sneer on Gong Jin's lips, "In short, after a period of turmoil, Aunt Feng knelt in front of our courtyard door for three days, and in front of Auntie's room for three days, and finally Auntie agreed to let Gong Qing married in my place. Later, when the Three Dynasties came back, Gong Qing came to tell me that she deliberately let me know about their affairs, knowing that my temperament would not tolerate sand, and she would definitely withdraw the engagement, and then she could take her place .In fact, what she wanted early in the morning was the position of the fourth wife of the Marquis of Wuyang, not the flat wife."

This palace secretary is really cheap! "Fourth aunt, let me tell you something, I hope you will be happy."

Lu Xinyan leaned over and told Gong Jin about Qingtong beating Gong Qing into a pig's head on Qixi night.

Gong Jinchu was dumbfounded at the beginning, and said in a reproachful tone: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Lu Xinyan blinked.

Gong Jin gritted her teeth and said, "I've wanted to hit her for a long time! If it weren't for Aunt Feng's dedication to taking care of Auntie over the years, I would have seen her beat her once!"

She suddenly laughed happily, "Zhuzhu is doing a good job, it's so cool!"

"Do you want to see Fourth Aunt with your own eyes?" Lu Xinyan raised her eyebrows slightly, with a wicked smile on her lips.

Gong Jin's eyes widened, "You want to..."

Lu Xinyan nodded with a half-smile.

Gong Jin coughed twice, tacit understanding.

"By the way, fourth aunt, you just said that fifth uncle wants to marry you because he has other motives. Why do you have such an idea?"

From the eyes of Lu Xinyan's modern people, Gong Jin is not a traditional beauty in the eyes of the public, but she is the designer's favorite. She is tall and flat, has a fashionable and unique temperament, and she rejects the vulgar Gong Qing Shibajie.

If she were a man, it would be impossible for her to fall in love with Gong Qing and dump Gong Jin.

Now that Cai Yuanyu is stalking Gong Jin to death, although Lu Xinyan thinks that this person is scumbag and cheap, she approves of his vision.

Gong Jin said: "I am twenty-three this year, and a daughter's family is usually the mother of at least two children."

"It doesn't mean anything. Some people might like mature ones." Lu Xinyan didn't think so. She was only 23 and just graduated from university in modern times.

"I don't dare to tell others, but Cai Yuanyu, definitely not! Because every once in a while, Gong Qing will come back to Aunt Feng and cry, saying that Cai Yuanyu has found a young and beautiful aunt who is fifteen or sixteen years old."

Gong Jin said: "And those aunts who have stayed in the mansion for two or three years have long since fallen out of favor! Such a person who is greedy for new colors, if he didn't have other plans, why would he want to marry me? He met me before. Although I also have an affectionate look on my face, I have never tried it like this in the past few months, it is shameless to the extreme!"

In the end, the more Gong Jin said, the more angry she became, but Lu Xinyan's heart suddenly moved, "When did Cai Yuanyu become more and more disrespectful to Sigu?"

Gong Jin didn't understand why she asked, but she still replied: "I didn't want to see them before, and I tried to avoid them as much as possible. During the Dragon Boat Festival this year, when they came to give gifts, he sent someone to send a message to Qiuhua, saying that he wanted to see me." He wanted to tell me something, but I ignored him, and then we met on the evening of Qixi Festival."

It was before and after Feng's illness again!Heh, Gong Qing helped the Jiang family to frame her in order to get a share of her dowry. It seems that Cai Yuanyu had the same idea.

For the past three years, the Feng family has been in charge of Lu Xinyan's dowry. In the eyes of outsiders, the Feng family must have pocketed a lot of money!If the Tianfeng family is gone, most of her inheritance will definitely be left to Gong Jin, plus Gong Jin's original property, it must be a considerable sum!

If the Cai family splits up in the future, Cai Yuanyu is not the eldest son, and his income is limited. Gong Qing, as a concubine, stole Gong Jin's marriage back then, and Feng's consent to her marrying in Gong Jin's place is already the most benevolent, how could he give it to her? A large dowry?
Cai Yuanyu's career in the future may not be bad, but he must be short on money and silver. That's why he thought of marrying Gong Jin and taking the property left to her by the Feng family as his own!

This man is really shameless and despicable to the extreme. Fortunately, she thought he had two eyes just now, bah bah bah!

"Fourth Gu, I'll ask Qingtong to kick him twice later!" Lu Xinyan gritted her teeth.

Seeing her indignation, Gong Jin pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay!"

"But fourth aunt, don't lose confidence in men because of such a scumbag! There are still good men in this world!"
