After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad
Chapter 12 Li Family Internal Conflict
Everyone was shocked when Su Xuanming said this.
Su Yunting and Su Yunyan's eyes were shining with joy, and the light almost illuminated the dark night.
"Brother, finally you spoke the truth. The power to manage the family should be given to mother." When Su Yunting thought of his stalled plan, he wanted to press Jingniang's head to make her agree.
I was really bewildered at the beginning. Just because Jingniang gave me a sword, I thought it was nice to have Jingniang as my sister-in-law.
If time could go back, I would definitely hit her in the face with the sword!
When Su Yunyan thought of the broken bird's nest, she felt that life was the best when her mother was in charge.
Although the jade hairpin given by Jingniang is valuable, it cannot be eaten.
Gu Nanxi was frightened when he heard this.
I had finally gotten this job done, and now this guy wants to pull it back for me?!
Boys are indeed extroverts. We can’t keep such an old son!
Among all people, Jingniang was the most heartbroken one.
Jingniang wanted to scratch Su Xuanming's handsome face: "I spent all that money, worked hard all day, and said harsh words, but you want me to give up so easily?!"
Su Xuanming muttered quietly: "But, you spent the money, and we didn't see any money. On the contrary, our life became much more difficult. You worked so hard, but the servants in the mansion are like wooden stakes, and they only move when you poke them."
Su Xuanming approached Jingniang and consoled her gently, "What's the use of saying harsh words? I often told my grandmother and mother that I would take the imperial examination and become the top scholar in the future. But with my grades, I'll be thankful if I can pass the examination and become a scholar."
Jingniang was so angry that her face turned red. Su Xuanming was like chicken ribs, tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away!
However, my family has invested too much in him.
If I really fall out with Su Xuanming, all these investments will be wasted!
Jingniang gnashed her teeth and said firmly, "Impossible! Your mother looks down on me. If I back down now, even if I get married, how can I have a good life in the future?"
Su Xuanming said confidently: "My mother doesn't say it, but she loves me the most in her heart. When you marry into the family, you will be the first lady. And since my mother loves me and everyone in my family, who can let you down?"
Jingniang felt that Su Xuanming was not just a useless person, he was simply a fool!
He knew nothing about the fights between women!
He had no idea what a ruthless and resourceful character his mother was!
"Impossible! Having come this far, I can't give up. I'll help you with half of the IOU issue, and you can figure out the rest yourself."
After saying that, Jingniang turned and left.
Su Yunting, who was hiding behind the rocks, snorted coldly. This elder brother was too ignorant of himself. It was obvious that his mother loved him the most! As long as he coughed, his mother would immediately put down what she was doing and come to accompany him.
Su Yunyan also pouted. It was obvious that her mother valued her the most! She even gave her the Thirty-Six Stratagems!
Gu Nanxi sneered while lying on the bamboo chair. Ha, you love Su Xuanming's barbecued pork the most? Obviously, you love Jingniang the most! Look at how considerate Jingniang is. She is responsible for the household affairs despite the pressure. She is much more considerate than these children.
Apart from watching the fun, nothing changed, so the mother and her son said goodbye on the spot.
Jingniang returned home angrily and wanted to find Father Li to complain, but was stabbed in the back by the family decision.
Jingniang couldn't believe it and said, "What?! Give up?! Why?"
Brother Li slammed the account book loudly: "The family is running out of money! In the past half month, the herbal medicine shop has not made a single cent. Even ordinary people have gone to Tongjitang. All this is because you insisted on a grand funeral."
When it comes to this, Brother Li has a lot to say: "At the beginning, I told you not to make trouble. Even if you want to make trouble, there is no need to set up a colorful tent. You should handle the bowl according to your ability. Our family is not as good as the Marquis of Yongchang, so we can just do it simply."
"You insisted on saving face, fearing that they would look down on you after you got married, and you sacrificed most of your family fortune."
Jingniang retorted: "At the beginning, you all agreed."
Mrs. Li weakly interrupted, "We didn't know at the beginning that Madam Hou was such a powerful character. I really thought she was a living Bodhisattva. What a waste of my eternal lamp."
Jingniang snorted coldly, crossed her arms and said, "No matter how powerful she is, what does it matter? Her son will still marry me, and the power of the housekeeper of the Marquis' Mansion is still in my hands! Even if she has thousands of clever tricks, how can she break the situation?"
"I'm not afraid of gossip. She cares more about the reputation of Yongchang Marquis's Mansion than I do!"
Setbacks make people stronger. Jingniang feels that after all the rumors and gossips over this period of time, her heart has become as hard as iron, and nothing can bring her down!
The next second, Old Man Li’s words shattered Jingniang’s faith in Taoism.
Old Man Li, who was smoking a pipe, spoke quietly, "These past few days, I have been giving money to Xing Momo every day, and finally I managed to pry open the old woman's mouth. Guess why the old lady of the Marquis has no objection to giving you the power to run the household?"
Father Li took a long puff of his cigarette and slowly exhaled, "Because, over the years, the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion has long been in a good position, relying entirely on the Marquis's wife's dowry to survive."
Jingniang's pupils shrank suddenly, and she murmured, "This is impossible!"
"Jingniang, let's not talk about whether the money in the family can support you to get married. Even if you get married, can you give as much dowry as the Marquis's wife?"
Father Li seemed to be lost in distant memories: "Madam Hou grew up under the care of the Grand Empress Dowager. When she got married, she had a dowry, and the Grand Empress Dowager gave her a dowry in return. Now the Empress Dowager has also added a dowry."
"That grand wedding procession had not been seen for decades. The dowry boxes were full and the porters' footsteps were heavy and powerful. I still remember that scene vividly."
In just one day, Father Li seemed to have aged by a dozen years: "Jingniang, she gave you a chance before, and asked you to give up, but you didn't want to. Now, she just dug a hole, and you have to sacrifice all our Li family's property. If you still insist on being stubborn, will we have to pay with our whole family's lives?"
Mrs. Li fell to her knees at Jingniang's feet and said, "Jingniang, I beg you. I am three months pregnant. For the sake of your unborn nephew, please leave a way out for our family."
Brother Li: "It's hard to find a two-legged toad, but there are two-legged men everywhere. If you insist on marrying Su Dalang, then you can become his concubine. He loves you deeply and will not bully you even if you become his concubine."
Jingniang pulled the corners of her mouth and revealed a bitter smile.
These are my family members. When they see benefits, they push me forward.
When things don't go as planned, it's all your fault.
"I, Li Ningjing, will never be a concubine in this life! There is no way I will give up!" Jingniang was glad that she had been careful and secretly saved a considerable sum of money and deposited it in a bank.
Father Li said calmly, "It's not up to you. The money you got from the bank should be regarded as compensation for the family."
