Qiao Nian secretly encouraged herself and was about to walk to Xiao He's house when a maid came outside and saluted Qiao Nian, "My eldest mistress, please go to the front hall to discuss something."
Discussion?
Qiao Nian didn't understand what was going to be discussed, but when she arrived at the front hall, she found that Lin Yuan was there.
Seeing Qiao Nian, Xiao's mother greeted her warmly, "Nian Nian, come here."
Qiao Nian stepped forward, glanced at Lin Yuan, and then asked, "Mom, is something wrong?"
However, Xiao's mother put a list into Qiao Nian's hands, and naturally also gave one to Lin Yuan.
Just listen to Xiao's mother say, "Tomorrow is the day when you come home. Mom has prepared these homecoming gifts for you. Take a look. Are there any missing ones that need to be added?"
Lin Yuan took one look at it, immediately handed over the list, and said obediently, "Mom has been very well prepared. There is nothing to add."
After saying this, Lin Yuan glanced at Qiao Nian from the corner of her eyes, and then said to Xiao's mother, "Speaking of this wedding ceremony, I have one more thing to say, but I don't know if my sister will agree."
Qiao Nian looked at her nose with her eyes, and her nose with her heart. She didn't even look at Lin Yuan, and she didn't even answer Lin Yuan's words.
Xiao's mother seemed to feel embarrassed and just asked, "What's the matter?"
Lin Yuan then smiled slightly and said, "I'm thinking of transferring half of my dowry to Xiao Mansion's account."
Hearing this, a sneer flashed across Qiao Nian's lowered eyes.
Half of the dowry went to Xiao Mansion, which was really generous.
Does this mean that she should also take out half of it?
interesting!
Xiao's mother was shocked, "How can this be done?"
Since ancient times, the dowry has been a woman's own property, just like the old lady of the Hou Mansion. After so many years, the dowry is still in her own hands. No one can stop her from giving it to whomever she wants.
There are also cases where the husband's family is not well off, and a woman will transfer her dowry to her husband's family to show her virtuousness.
But, who is the Xiao family? Why does it need Lin Yuan's dowry?
But she didn't expect it, Lin Yuan said softly, "It's just my heart. After all, the two young masters of the Xiao family got married at the same time, and now they have to return home. Even if the Xiao family has a big business, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult."
This is actually true.
This is two huge expenditures at once, which is indeed difficult.
Even so, Xiao's mother had never thought about dowry for her two daughters-in-law, but now that Lin Yuan had taken the initiative to bring it up, she couldn't help but get distracted. She immediately held Lin Yuan's hand and looked at her. It was full of love and care, "If you really care, I will know that Yuan'er is the most well-behaved."
While speaking, Mother Xiao seemed to have thought of something, glanced at Qiao Nian, and then said to Lin Yuan, "I saw Xipa, and Heng'er, it's true that you are in good health despite such a big fuss. ah?"
The blood stains on the wedding handkerchief were too much!
Lin Yuan blushed all of a sudden, glanced at Qiao Nian subconsciously, then lowered her eyes and shook her head shyly.
Qiao Nian sat aside and remained silent, but in her heart she already understood Xiao Jiujiu in Xiao's mother's heart.
Originally, Xiao's mother should have said it when she was alone with Lin Yuan, but now she mentioned it in front of her just to observe her reaction.
Thinking like this, Qiao Nian looked at Xiao's mother, and sure enough she saw that the latter was also observing her quietly.
Seeing her looking over, Xiao's mother quickly looked away, showing a bit of panic.
Qiao Nian couldn't help but chuckle and shake his head.
However, Xiao’s mother cannot be entirely blamed.
After all, Xiao's mother knew best how she was obsessed with Xiao Heng in the past. Although she is married to Xiao He now, Xiao's mother will inevitably still have some worries in her heart. Is such a blatant temptation a warning to her?
But Qiao Nian didn't care about this at all. She cared about another thing.
Qiao Nian also presented the list to Xiao's mother, and then said, "I have no father or mother. I won't come back tomorrow. I'd better skip the door ceremony this time!"
Mother Xiao was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said, "How can this silly girl say such a thing? Aren't your parents taking good care of themselves in the Marquis' Mansion now?"
"..."
Qiao Nian's face suddenly turned cold.
Xiao's mother didn't notice, and just continued, "Mom knows that you and your parents have had some conflicts in recent years, but after all, they have been kind to you in raising you. We, the daughters-in-law of the Xiao family, can't do that." You are so cold and heartless, even if you are not getting married in the Hou Mansion, didn’t your dowry come from the old lady of the Hou Mansion? No matter what, you should go back to the Hou Mansion tomorrow!”
Qiao Nian finally understood that this was what the discussion was about.
Before she could say anything, Lin Yuan on the side spoke, "Yes, sister, my parents have missed you very much since you left. Now that we are both married, let him let the past matter be Come over! Go back home tomorrow and call your parents, and nothing will happen! As the saying goes, everything will be happy if the family is harmonious!"
Listening to these words, Xiao's mother nodded repeatedly.
But looking at Qiao Nian's still indifferent face, Xiao's mother also stopped laughing, took Qiao Nian's hand, and said sincerely, "My mother didn't hide it from you. It was your mother who sent someone to send the letter. Please I must advise you to return home tomorrow My wife, no matter what, we have all seen how much your mother loved you back then. Even if you are a stubborn girl, you can't be so stubborn, right? It's better for everyone to be soft. "
Qiao Nian looked at his hand held by Xiao's mother with a frighteningly cold expression.
On the side, Lin Yuan was still echoing, "Mom is right, no matter what, we are a family. There is no such thing as an overnight feud. Sister, please go back with me tomorrow!"
Xiao's mother glanced at Lin Yuan with great relief, feeling that only someone as kind and generous as Lin Yuan was worthy of being her daughter-in-law.
But unexpectedly, the next moment, Qiao Nian actually lifted up her sleeves, exposing her entire forearm in front of Xiao's mother.
Even though it had been several months, the scars on her arms were still shocking.
Xiao's mother was suddenly startled and subconsciously shook off Qiao Nian's hand.
But soon, she held Qiao Nian's hand again, "This, this is..."
Qiao Nian refused to say anything, and only said in a deep voice, "Don't persuade others to be kind without their suffering. The Marquis and I broke off our relationship in front of my grandmother. If I go back, it will only make my grandmother's soul in heaven uneasy." ”
As she spoke, Qiao Nian retracted her hand, stood up, and bowed to Mrs. Xiao, "I don't need the homecoming ceremony. As for the dowry..."
As Qiao Nian spoke, she looked at Lin Yuan with a pair of eyes filled with a touch of sarcasm, "Since my younger brother and sister have such a heart, then don't brush off the good intentions of my younger brother and sister."
But her dowry is hers, and no one can share it if she doesn’t want to give it to her!
