Chapter 158: Xin Yan angrily reprimands Mrs. Chu
"This is almost the same." Qin Li expressed her opinion:
"But Mrs. Chu would definitely not give too much to give her dowry. Because Chu Xinyan was not good at it, she has caused trouble for Mrs. Chu in recent years. Mrs. Chu was afraid that she had wanted to marry her a long time ago, but she was still young, so she didn't say anything. This year, Miss Chu is about to be sixteen years old?"
Ziqin replied with a smile:
"That's right, Miss Chu is indeed sixteen years old this year and can marry."
"Before Miss Chu got married, Mr. Fu told her to ask her to ask her to ask her to get more dowry from her family. He also said that he did not want her to pay her back. He was completely considering her. Because she was a magistrate's daughter, if the dowry was not richer, it would be a bad idea to damage the face of the magistrate's family."
"When Miss Chu heard this, she thought it made sense, so she listened to Mr. Fu. After the two families discussed the wedding date, Ms. Chu told Prison Chu that she would give her more dowry. Prison Chu said that her family was her legitimate mother in charge, so don't talk about these trivial matters with him."
When Qin Li heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.
That Chu Xinyan is really stupid. Before she got married to the Fu family, she followed Fu Yuyan. When Chu Xinyan got married to the Fu family, she was afraid that Fu Yu would let her go east, so she would never dare to go west.
At that time, she would feel uncomfortable.
Ziqin told Qin Li: "Miss Chu cried and told the Prime Minister Chu that her legitimate mother never liked her, so how could she prepare much dowry for her? In any case, she is the biological daughter of the Prime Minister Chu and the daughter of the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister Chu and the others must prepare more dowry for her..."
When the prefect Chu heard this, he became angry and said that Chu Xinyan would marry if she wanted to marry. If she didn't, she would get out of Chu's house immediately and never come back.
Chu Xinyan burst into tears, but after crying, she admitted her mistake to the prefect Chu, saying that she shouldn't talk to the elders like that, and asked the prefect Chu to forgive her.
The prefect Chu told Chu Xinyan that she would not be allowed to be in front of him again, saying that her legitimate mother is not. Otherwise, he would definitely expel her from the house.
Chu Xinyan naturally dared not mention it again.
In order to get a dowry, Chu Xinyan had to go to her legitimate mother to discuss with her and give her more dowry. It would also make it known that the Chu family married her daughter and married her in a grand manner.
After hearing the words, Mrs. Chu glanced at Chu Xinyan lightly, smiled and said:
"Of course you have to give a dowry to marry a daughter. How can I not understand such an important thing, as an elder?"
What I mean is that you don’t have to be the junior, just to urge me to prepare your dowry.
Chu Xinyan looked embarrassed and looked down at her embroidered shoes.
After being silent for a long time, Chu Xinyan mustered up the courage to ask: "Mother, what good things do you have prepared for your child? The child really wants to go and have a look."
Mrs. Chu pointed her finger, put a few boxes in the corner of the house, and said:
"I have raised you for so many years for my mother and raised you so old, and I feel very reluctant to let you go if I want to marry you."
"The child can't bear to give up his mother." Chu Xinyan didn't expect that Mrs. Chu, the legitimate mother, could not treat her very well on weekdays, but she could prepare so many dowry for her. She was happy and said:
"But the child is getting married soon, right in Jiayu City. It is quite convenient to come back to see his parents. Thank you for your mother for preparing such a generous dowry for your child."
A few boxes of gold and silver jewelry are very rich.
At night, Chu Xinyan dressed up as a maid and walked into the private room to see what jewelry the boxes contained in them were all. As a result, when she opened the drawer, took out the keys, opened the boxes one by one, and found that the boxes were all empty.
There is nothing inside.
Chu Xinyan threw the key on the carpet in anger and stepped on it hard. While stepping on it, she scolded Mrs. Chu:
"You old and ugly woman, I got sick and withdrew my monthly money and didn't prepare a dowry for me. I remember when my mother married into Chu's mansion, she brought a lot of dowry, and over the years, she has also given a lot of silver to subsidize you."
"You will treat me like this sooner or later, you will die well."
"I don't give me the dowry, do you want to save it and buy a coffin, or what?"
“…”
After hearing a maid telling her about the incident, Mrs. Chu stepped forward and kicked open the door of the private room, and saw Chu Xinyan standing next to one of the boxes in the corner of the wall.
Chu Xinyan looked angry and pointed at Mrs. Chu and said:
"You immortal..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Mrs. Chu quickly stepped forward, picked up the inkstone placed on the table, and threw it at Chu Xinyan.
"The daughter of a slut is also a slut. You can never get rid of the word "slut". You still want a dowry, but don't ask other people's families how to buy dowry? Of course, how much dowry is given to the husband's family, and I will add some dowry to you."
Chu Xinyan didn't expect that Mrs. Chu would come over and smash her with an inkstone. In a panic, she quickly avoided it. Fortunately, she escaped the disaster and was not hit by the inkstone.
Just as I was about to ask Mrs. Chu if she was standing outside the door and eavesdropping, she soon heard Mrs. Chu's angry words:
"The Fu Yu you are going to marry hasn't even given him a set of poor clothes. You're asking me for a dowry. Where's your face?"
Mrs. Chu pointed her hand at her cheek and asked Chu Xinyan:
"Why are you willing to pay money to a man just like your own mother who is so mean that she can't be more humble, just to marry herself? Are you shameless?"
Chu Xinyan spat at Mrs. Chu. This was one of the things she wanted to do in these years. She had been bullied by Mrs. Chu for so many years and had long wanted to stab Mrs. Chu to death with one knife, or use a foot of white silk to hang Mrs. Chu, and even more wanted to push Mrs. Chu into the river and drown...
It’s a pity that she seemed to have heard someone say that Mrs. Chu could swim when she was a little too young and was not afraid of water at all.
Chu Xinyan hated Mrs. Chu for many years. During these years, she could neither kill Mrs. Chu nor hurt Mrs. Chu. But at this moment, she could humiliate the other party.
"When I marry into the Fu family, I will wait for Prince An to arrange a beautiful woman for my Fu Lang. I will come and calculate the details with you, an ugly woman. I will talk about the ugly words first. I am the daughter of the prefect and a member of your Chu family. You must prepare my dowry for me..."
"Bah!" Mrs. Chu's sinister eyes crawled on Chu Xinyan's face and said:
"My little girl, I've been in charge for many years, and it's not your turn to decide."
"You robbed a man with Qin Li before, and robbed him from him, which made me lose face and lose money. I haven't even calculated the account with you. Now, I am willing to give you a few boxes and ask you to bring jewelry and clothes into the Fu Mansion, which can save you a lot of silver. They are all right to live in you."
"But you dare to open the box with me on my back and curse me."
Mrs. Chu said with contempt:
"Not only do I not give the box, I have to calculate with you how much more silver you have spent in the past few years. At that time, let your mother return the silver you owed to me. If you don't come back, you won't want to get married. I will sell you to the imperial city as a maid and return my silver!"
Chu Xinyan rushed over angrily and reached out to slap Mrs. Chu, but was stopped by the maids around Mrs. Chu.
The maid in the lead said to the other maids:
"You've tied up that bitch and locked up!"
