In the rebirth, the abandoned wife of a noble family turned black
Chapter 145 Are you, the Yu family, bullying others too much?
"My son is already ready, so don't worry, mother."
After Zhong Ding comforted Mrs. Zhong, he went to Xinhua Pavilion.
"Master Zhong."
Jiang Ruan Xiping retreated from the maid beside him, letting Hongye guard the door, and saluted the gentle and elegant man in front of him.
"You're welcome, young lady." Zhong Ding looked guilty, "There are many things at home, so I should have been the one to pick you up."
"No problem." Jiang Ruanxi said calmly.
Even after his daughter died, he never thought about bringing her back, yet she was so attentive to him.
Jiang Ruan Xi didn't like this kind of cold-natured man.
"Having Mrs. Zhong pick me up is worthy of Miss Zhong."
Jiang Ruanxi didn't want to know about the Zhong family, nor was she interested in knowing. But after what happened today, she felt that some things had to be explained clearly.
Zhong Ding was also a smart person and quickly understood what she meant.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, little lady, I didn't tell my mother about your coming to my house, so my mother has a problem with you. I will talk to her later and ask her to try not to disturb you during this period."
Jiang Ruanxi was the person arranged by the Yu family, and Zhong Ding knew it very well in his heart. People in Lingnan were all speculating about the origin of this Yu family. The family had a big business, and was even wealthy.
But only Zhong Ding knew that this Yu family was from the Queen's mother's family.
This young lady was sent to his home and made a marriage arrangement with the Yu family. She was someone who had a relationship with the royal family.
He, Zhong Ding, has been working diligently in Lingnan for so many years, and he is still just a small official.
If he could gain royal connections through this little lady this time, he might be able to achieve great success in the future.
Moreover, even if he cannot prosper, he can still make a small fortune relying on the Yu family's family business.
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Zhong."
Jiang Ruanxi knew that deep down in Zhong Ding's heart, he must have his own thoughts, but he didn't say anything about it.
Everyone lives for their own interests, including myself today.
If he could ensure the peace of his Zhong family during this period, Jiang Ruan Xi would not care about that.
With the beating of Zhong Ding, Mrs. Zhong really restrained herself a lot and did not cause trouble for herself.
This night, Jiang Ruanxi slept soundly.
Early the next morning, the morning light dewed slightly. As soon as Jiang Ruanxi opened his eyes, red leaves hurried in.
"Miss, wake up, the betrothal gift has arrived from the Yu family."
Jiang Ruan Xi couldn't sleep well during this bumpy journey. Last night, knowing that her life was safe, she actually slept like this.
"I'll give you the betrothal gift. Why are you panicking?"
Jiang Ruanxi was very calm. After getting up, she let Mother Lu and Yuyu take care of her.
"Miss, the second master of the Yu family did not come, but a servant. I just think that since we have all been underemployed, at least my uncle has to come, right?"
At least a bit sincere, right?
But Jiang Ruan Xi's mind was a little far away. When he was in Kyoto, he said that he still had some things to deal with.
Has he not come back yet?
There is a cooperative relationship between them, and it doesn't matter whether they come or not, as long as they show up and go.
"But forget it, but I think you should go take a look. Those betrothal gifts look very expensive. Didn't you see the look in the eyes of Mrs. Zhong and the second young lady? They just want to move to their own room."
Hongye knew that she didn't like money, and she also knew that she was very rich, but when she saw the greedy grandfather and grandson, she didn't want to take advantage of them.
"After all, she is also an official's wife. She seems to have never seen the world before. She makes things that suit people so easily. This is probably not the first time."
"Red leaves."
Seeing that she was becoming more and more outspoken, Jiang Ruanxi scolded, "This is the Zhong family. Have you forgotten your identity?"
She knew that Hongye wanted to fight for her, but the most important thing for them now was to keep a low profile and not cause trouble.
"Miss, I know I was wrong. I just don't deserve it for you anymore."
"There is a confused old man in the Zhong family, but Mr. Zhong is a wise man. He will not ask for things that do not belong to him, and he does not dare to ask for them."
Hong Ye was dubious, but she didn't know that Mrs. Zhong and Zhong Xintong in the front yard had their eyes shining brightly when they saw the betrothal gifts.
In addition to ordinary things, the cash amount alone is a full 50,000 taels.
Not to mention those gold and silver jewelry, precious medicinal materials and cloth.
Not to mention marrying a little legitimate daughter of the Zhong family, marrying a princess would be enough.
Zhong Xintong's eyes turned red immediately, "Grandma, how come you have so much money?"
These originally belonged to her.
Mrs. Zhong has been born in a poor family, how has she ever seen such incredible wealth?
I was also shocked and speechless.
But she soon had a plan in mind.
"I wonder if the eldest lady of the Zhong family can come out?" Butler Yu took a sip of tea and saw the greed of the Zhong family in his eyes.
"Is there something wrong with the housekeeper?"
"It's like this. When I came, my second master told me that these are betrothal gifts and need to be seen by Miss Zhong in person. If there are still any dissatisfactions, the Yu family will deal with them."
Not satisfied with this?
So how can we be satisfied?
Mrs. Zhong looked at the pile of things that could not be accommodated in the entire hall of the Zhong family.
If you send it again, it will really be too much.
Zhong Xintong was even more excited when she heard it, and instantly got pink eye.
"Also, this is the gift list for this betrothal gift, which needs to be handed over to Miss Zhong."
Directly passing the elders to Jiang Ruan Xi, what does the Yu family mean?
Could it be that they think the Zhong family will be greedy for these dowries?
Mrs. Zhong was naturally unhappy when she was slighted.
"My granddaughter is very precious. The wind won't blow her away when she goes out on weekdays. I'm afraid she won't be able to go out to meet people now. Why don't you give me the gift list from the manager, and I'll hand it over to her in a moment."
When it comes into your own hands, how you handle it is all your own business.
Mrs. Zhong is very shrewd.
Manager Yu stepped aside and said calmly, "Sorry, my second master said that he must hand it over to the eldest daughter of the Zhong family in person."
"Are you, the Yu family, bullying others too much?"
Still can’t trust yourself?
Mrs. Zhong immediately got angry, but Housekeeper Yu remained unmoved. In the end, Zhong Ding got the news and rushed over to calm down the situation.
"It's just a small thing, why should mother be angry."
Is this a trivial matter?
This is clearly looking down on people!
Mrs. Zhong was very angry, but Zhong Ding did not dare to act too deliberately at this time, and said, "I don't know what the housekeeper knows. My daughter is weak and cannot come out easily. How about this, I'll let someone take her." How about you go to the back house with the manager in mind and give it to her personally?"
