The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife
Chapter 43 Recovering Property
Jiang Tingxia put the things in the camphorwood box in order and put it into the house on the side of the yard, and counted his own small treasury at the same time.
In addition to the two hundred yuan compensated by Li Chunmiao and the money she took away from the Jiang family, she only had one hundred and twenty-seven yuan left after spending money on shopping at the market a few days ago, and the fifty yuan as a dowry, a total of three hundred and seventy-seven yuan.
That's just the amount of money.
She couldn't help but think of the wealth her grandfather left behind, which was enough for her to live on for the rest of her life. Her heart ached so much that it was bleeding. If she had known this would happen, she should not have handed over the money in order to please those evildoers in the Jiang family. Now it is not so easy to get the money back.
They also swallowed up her camera, phonograph and several boxes of jewelry in her bedroom.
In the past, Jiang Tingxia always lived in guilt and flattery due to her identity as a fake rich girl. She silently endured no matter how many things they took away from her. This time, she wanted to take back everything that belonged to her.
Jiang Tingxia asked Li Changpu for help and called the Jiang family.
It was Jiang Tinghe who replied again, her arrogance unable to be concealed even through the microphone.
"Jiang Tingxia, why are you calling? Are you tired of living in the countryside and come to cry to us?" Jiang Tinghe did not hide her gloating. "But crying to us is useless. You've already married, and this is your fate. Just get by."
Jiang Tingxia was too lazy to refute her, "You're the only one at home? I'm going to look for my eldest brother."
Jiang Tinghe hated Jiang Tingxia's disregard for her, so she snorted, "Brother is so busy, how can he have time to talk to you?"
At this time, a man's voice came from the other end of the receiver, "Is it Ting Xia calling?"
Jiang Tinghe said reluctantly, "Yes"
Then Jiang Hai picked up the phone, "It's Ting Xia, what's the matter?"
Jiang Tingxia pretended to be panicked and said, "Brother, this is bad!"
Jiang Hai asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Tingxia: "My dowry box arrived yesterday. Li Changpu got furious after taking one look at it. He said that Grandpa didn't give him the conditions he promised him. He said he would go and ask the matchmaker about it."
Jiang Hai's heart skipped a beat. This marriage was arranged by old man Jiang through someone. There were many personal relationships involved, and most of them were well-known figures whom he could not afford to offend. However, Jiang Tinghe cried and made a fuss at the time, and even threatened to commit suicide. He could only turn a blind eye and watch them find a scapegoat again. However, the matter of the substitute marriage was still hanging in the air, and he didn't know when it would explode. His confused sister and mother had problems with the dowry again!
Jiang Hai quickly asked, "What happened to the dowry?"
Jiang Tingxia said that the dowry was all old stuff, "Brother, there is no dragon and phoenix bracelet, necklace, earrings, etc. prepared according to the rules. The bedding is also perfunctory. Even the dowry is only fifty yuan. From what I heard from Li Changpu, it seems that his grandfather promised him a sum of money, and now that the duck in his mouth has flown away, he will definitely make a fuss. What should we do?"
Jiang Tingxia and Jiang Hai have been siblings for many years, so they know him a little bit. He is timid and fearful of things, but his family is well-off and he is very generous. In his opinion, money is like paper, which can never be spent. Things that can be solved with money are the best in his opinion.
Therefore, it would be easiest to get back the money that Li Xiu and Jiang Tinghe had embezzled from him.
Sure enough, Jiang Hai said, "The money issue is easy to talk about, but I don't know how much did grandpa promise him?"
Jiang Tingxia took the opportunity to interject, "It seems to be 50,000 yuan. He will not give up until he gets this money. Moreover, he said that our Jiang family cheated him and he will go to Wenhai to ask you for an explanation. You said that by that time, our Jiang family will lose all face just for such a small amount of money. We will be laughed at to death when we go to the dinner party. How can we go out at that time!"
Jiang Hai has been in the business circle for many years. If he gets pointed at by others, he will be really finished. He cares a lot about his reputation.
He said quickly, "Ting Xia, tell your brother-in-law to calm down. It's only a small amount of money, I'll give it to you. The Jiang family will never cheat on what they promised. And the missing dowry was caused by the carelessness of our subordinates. I'll make up for it. Please persuade your brother-in-law not to be angry."
Fifty thousand yuan was the inheritance her grandfather gave her. Jiang Tingxia was afraid that things would get worse, so he added fuel to the fire, "Okay, big brother, then you better hurry up. You don't know that Li Changpu has a very bad temper. He may come to you at any time, and I can't stop him."
Jiang Tinghe was unwilling to listen to this, "Brother, why should we give them money?"
Jiang Hai was very dissatisfied with Jiang Tinghe. It was because she refused to get married that she caused trouble. He covered the microphone and shouted in a low voice, "Shut up. You don't have to get married. What are you dissatisfied with? Why do you have to leave a handle on such a small matter as the dowry? It must be you who instigated Mom to not prepare well and perfunctorily. I know you and Tingxia have always been at odds. It's okay to quarrel at home, but you can't joke with the Jiang family and my face. I have to go out for social events. How can I do business with a bad reputation?"
Jiang Hai has a stubborn personality and won't tolerate any argument from others. Seeing him like this, Jiang Tinghe knew it was pointless to say more and went upstairs to find Li Xiu.
Jiang Hai held the receiver and explained to Jiang Tingxia, "I will definitely give you the money, but the funds are locked up and cannot be withdrawn for the time being. You tell your brother-in-law that I will give him the money within two months at the latest."
Jiang Tingxia pretended to be embarrassed and said to Jiang Hai, "Li Changpu is angry, and we want him to wait. I wonder if he is willing to trust our family? Don't you know that he is the most impulsive person?"
Jiang Hai believed it. In the eyes of Jiang's family, his brother-in-law was just a country bumpkin serving in the army. He would have to work hard all his life to earn 50,000 yuan, so it was very likely that he would make a fuss over the money.
Jiang Hai was dumbfounded, "What should I do then?"
Jiang Tingxia said, "Why don't we use something as collateral? After all, words are not enough. He will believe it if there is a guarantee. After you sign and seal, send a telegram to me and I will show it to him. Only then will there be room for this matter."
With the proof that Jiang Hai used the Jiang family's real estate as collateral, she was not afraid that they would not pay. Otherwise, she could sell the things and get much more than 50,000 yuan.
……
It was windy last night, and the next day, the school in the village had collapsed.
Yang Jinfeng lived nearby, so she boiled two pots of water and sent them over. It was crowded with people, and it was not easy to find someone. Wei Dong suddenly rushed to her and said, "You don't have to bring water. You see, I'm so busy that I don't have time to drink. Now I have to go to the cafeteria and ask them to send lunch here."
Yang Jinfeng held him back and said, "You are helping the village, and we will provide you with food."
Wei Dong waved his hands and said, "That won't work. We have rules and cannot eat at fellow villagers' homes."
Yang Jinfeng knew this and added, "We should also tell the sisters-in-law in the family compound, so that if they want to send food over, they can prepare it early."
Wei Dong thought it made sense. Just as he was about to leave, Yang Jinfeng stopped him again. "Can you run so many houses by yourself? Leave the family compound to me. Talk to the canteen and come back early to help."
Wei Dong thought that his wife just felt sorry for him, so he chuckled and agreed.
