The mother of the Hou family eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and went crazy, I won by sucking milk
Chapter 10 Asking for Stewardship
Old Madam Zhou was very suspicious whether Jiang Wanqing had done this on purpose.
However, over the past year or so, Jiang Wanqing has been very obedient.
Moreover, the expression on the other person's face was also very sincere.
For a moment, Mrs. Zhou doubted whether she had made a mistake or misunderstood something.
So, he suppressed the anger in his heart.
Trying hard to calm down.
Then he slowly said, "Wanqing, why are there only a few dishes sent from our kitchen, and they are vegetarian dishes?"
Jiang Wanqing glanced at the food on her table.
Then she looked at Old Madam Zhou with an innocent look on her face, "Mother, I want to prepare some delicious food for everyone, but I don't have enough money in my account book. Vegetable porridge is also great."
Madam Zhou's face suddenly fell.
It seems that all this was arranged by Jiang Wanqing.
Zhou Ziqi, who was standing by, took the lead in attacking.
She sneered, "If there's not enough money in the account book, then we can all eat vegetarian food together. Why did sister-in-law let us eat vegetarian food, but she herself ate so exquisitely! Or did sister-in-law deduct our share and take the whole thing for herself?"
Old Madam Zhou and Zhou Ziyan also looked at Jiang Wanqing.
Waiting for Jiang Wanqing's explanation.
Jiang Wanqing looked at the person opposite her who was questioning her.
He spoke slowly, "There is indeed no money left in the account of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion. All the food I eat was bought with my own dowry. If my sister and mother want to eat better, you can ask mother to use some money from her dowry first."
Zhou Ziqi laughed angrily.
Then he asked again, "How could our Xingchang Marquisate be so poor? We can't even afford meat?"
"That's wrong!" Jiang Wanqing interrupted Zhou Ziqi, "Second sister, the money on the account of the mansion was enough for the family to eat, wear and use. It was enough to eat meat, but you bought clothes and jewelry this month, and you have already used up all the money on the account."
Zhou Ziqi was shocked when she heard Jiang Wanqing put all the blame on her.
She complained immediately: "Even if I bought clothes and jewelry, I wouldn't have spent that much money! I think you deliberately deducted money from us by letting us eat those foods!"
Old Madam Zhou was also very suspicious.
Even if Jiang Wanqing doesn't give a dowry, can't the money from the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion be enough to support everyone?
There are still some shops in the mansion.
At that moment, Madam Zhou said, "Jiang, do you know what a sin it is to treat your mother-in-law harshly?"
Jiang Wanqing was shocked when she heard her mother-in-law put such a big hat on her head.
She immediately started crying, but although you could hear the crying sound, you couldn't see any tears in the corners of her eyes.
"Wow, mother, I am wronged. There is only so much money on the books, and I have tried my best to make sure everyone eats better. If my second sister can buy less food, I believe everyone can eat well."
"The daughter-in-law also wants to be nice to her mother-in-law, but after more than a year, most of her dowry has already been spent. The daughter-in-law has to make plans for Xiao Xiao for the rest. Mother-in-law won't want to spend Xiao Xiao's dowry, right?"
"You can spend the dowry in your daughter-in-law's ears, but the small dowry is for Xiaoxiao, who hasn't married yet."
Jiang Wanqing's crying words were enough to shut up Old Madam Zhou.
Although she did plot against Jiang Wanqing's dowry.
However, it is not possible to say directly that it was for the purpose of seeking dowry.
What's more, she didn't believe that Jiang Wanqing's dowry could be spent in just a year and a half?
When Jiang Wanqing got married, she carried more than a hundred loads of dowry.
Could it be that the Duke's wife didn't give Jiang Wanqing much money as a dowry?
Thinking of this, Old Madam Zhou turned pale.
I was hoping that Jiang Wanqing could raise Zhou Musheng well, but how come all these things happened?
Wait, if... that girl Xiaoxiao is gone, will Jiang Wanqing not leave a dowry for her?
Thinking of this, Old Madam Zhou glanced at Xiaoxiao in Nanny Su's arms with ill intent.
Xiaoxiao's round black eyes kept turning, and she was smiling at Old Madam Zhou.
I just don’t know why, but Old Madam Zhou always feels that this smile is somewhat gloating?
Old Madam Zhou felt that she must be overthinking. Why would she think like that?
After all, Xiaoxiao is a girl and is of little use.
If she could sacrifice herself for her eldest grandson, it would be a worthy death.
And Xiaoxiao, who was in Nanny Su's arms, felt a chill on her back when she saw the look from Old Madam Zhou.
It’s a pity that her mother had just finished her meal, otherwise, she would definitely seek her mother’s arms.
Xiaoxiao waved towards Jiang Wanqing with great effort.
Woo woo woo, she wanted to throw herself into the warm embrace of her dear mother.
Jiang Wanqing heard the baby's squeaking sound.
When I turned around, I saw a small one waving its hands.
She took a step forward and held Xiao Xiao in her arms.
Xiaoxiao felt much more at ease now.
Seeing that Old Madam Zhou was silent.
At this time, Zhou Ziyan, who had been very quiet, took a step forward, looked at Jiang Wanqing and said, "Sister-in-law, it's okay for our master not to eat meat, but now Mu Sheng is the future heir of our Xingchang Marquisate, and the only legitimate son... Although he is adopted, he is now growing up, and we can't let Mu Sheng go without meat."
When Zhou Musheng was mentioned, Madam Zhou suddenly became a little uneasy.
Yes, there is nothing wrong with starving her.
But she must not let her eldest grandson starve.
After thinking about it, Old Madam Zhou finally spoke again: "Jiang, Zhou Musheng is your adopted son after all, he is your child, so you are leaving a dowry for Xiaoxiao.
Similarly, Mu Sheng is also your child, shouldn’t you leave some money for Mu Sheng as well?
I think we should not save this money for later. Let’s buy some more food for Mu Sheng now.”
When Jiang Wanqing heard this, a hint of coldness appeared in his pupils.
However, he still kept a smile on his face.
She said, "Mother, don't worry about Mu Sheng going hungry. It's almost the beginning of next month. As long as my second sister buys less jewelry and clothes, it will be enough for our family to eat and drink well."
Zhou Ziqi lost his composure after hearing this.
Then he asked, "Is it true that the food and clothing expenses of the Xingchang Marquisate have to be saved from a second young lady like me?"
Jiang Wanqing frowned and sighed.
After a while, he said, "Second sister, the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion is not as good as it used to be."
Zhou Ziqi didn't want to listen to so many explanations.
He only said: "I think you just deducted our food and used it for your own food. Sister-in-law, if you can't manage this family well, then give the housekeeping power to me!"
