After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

What's all this about?

How come he became a pauper?

Can you speak now?

Lu Lingxiao glared at the servant coldly: "Who stopped?"

The servant said angrily, "Madam, the eldest young master."

Lu Lingxiao has been in Beiliang and the border for many years. After returning home, he never asked about the housework. He naturally thought that the household affairs were still taken care of by his grandmother or mother.

Of course, it would be fine if it was Meng Qianqian. After all, her grandmother was old and her mother was not suited to overwork. As a granddaughter-in-law or daughter-in-law, it was only right for her to share some of the burden.

Begonia Courtyard.

Meng Qianqian was reading a storybook. Banxia listlessly pulled the curtain and entered: "Miss, the son-in-law is here."

All disappointments do not erupt suddenly, but are accumulated from one thing after another.

When Banxia saw her brother-in-law again, she was not as happy as before.

Lu Lingxiao didn't bother to argue with a servant. As soon as he entered the house, he felt a warm feeling coming towards him.

It was freezing cold outside, but it was as warm as spring in here. Even the old lady's house was not as warm as this.

"My grandmother only used two basins of charcoal, but you used three. Are you so afraid of the cold at such a young age?"

He snorted coldly and was about to sit down, but found that the chairs next to Meng Qianqian were all filled with things.

He looked at Banxia.

Banxia shook her head and walked away.

He frowned and had to sit on an uncomfortable stool.

Meng Qianqian ignored him and continued reading the storybook.

Lu Lingxiao glanced at her, suppressed his unhappiness, and said to her: "I know you are angry with me, but it's been a whole night, you should calm down."

Meng Qianqian's interest in reading was interrupted, and a hint of coldness flashed across her brows.

She put the bookmark in and closed the storybook.

"What do you mean by after one night, the anger should subside? In my husband's eyes, as long as you play dumb, I can handle what happened on my own. There is no need to solve any problem. Just let it go like this?"

Lu Lingxiao didn't want to argue with a little girl: "I was not thoughtful enough about what happened yesterday."

Meng Qianqian said calmly: "It's really perfunctory."

Lu Lingxiao stood up suddenly as if he had been poked in the sore spot: "Mrs. Meng! Don't be so unreasonable! I already said it was an accident, and I didn't expect you to look for me. Can't you just find a place to hide from the rain? I'm a grown man, do I need a woman like you to worry about me?"

Meng Qianqian laughed when she heard this.

How does he have the nerve to say such things?

He didn't even mention a word about his bad behavior, such as having a mistress and leaving her in the carriage, exposing her to the wind and rain!

If she really found a place to shelter from the rain.

Will he say again, didn't I tell you to wait in the carriage? Who told you to go to the cloth shop? I spent so much time looking for you that I even missed the first birthday celebration!

"If you think it's my fault, why are you pretending to apologize?"

Lu Lingxiao frowned and said, "Are you done yet? Aren't you okay?"

Meng Qianqian said coldly: "Should I forgive you just because I'm fine? I'm lucky to be fine, not because of you, my good husband! I want to rest, husband, please go back! Banxia, ​​see the guest off!"

guest?

He is her husband and the master of this yard!

Banxia lifted the curtain with a cold face: "Sir! Please go!"

Lu Lingxiao was really a little angry. Where would his face be if he was driven away by a woman?

He simply sat down and refused to move!

Banxia urged: "Son-in-law——"

Lu Lingxiao shouted: "Get out!"

Nanny Li dragged Banxia away.

Meng Qianqian sneered: "General Lu is so powerful!"

Lu Lingxiao rarely lost his temper with women, and he felt a little regretful after he did so. After calming down for a moment, he said earnestly:

"Ms. Meng, I am not here to find you to blame. Grandmother let you be the head of this family because she trusts you. You should act like a head of the family instead of being jealous of Wan'er all day and speaking ill of your husband. I said I would treat you well, and that still counts."

Hearing the word "head of the family", Meng Qianqian smiled: "Husband, today... you are not here to apologize, you are here to ask for money, right?"

Lu Lingxiao said seriously: "These are two different things, there is no need to confuse them."

Meng Qianqian said calmly, "Okay, then I'll follow my husband's wishes and just talk about the money."

Lu Lingxiao frowned: "That's not what I meant..."

Meng Qianqian took out an account book and said, "My husband has been at the border for five years and has never sent a single copper coin home for household expenses. I believe he must have saved a lot of money. Why don't you pay me back the money he owes me over the years?"

Lu Lingxiao was confused: "When did I owe you money?"

Meng Qianqian was surprised: "Didn't grandma tell my husband? In the past few years, the expenses of the mansion have been paid with my dowry. Even the huge debt owed back then was not paid off until I got married!"

"You bullshit!"

"Whether I am talking nonsense or not, my husband can check it out by himself in the accounting office."

What Meng Qianqian said was quite lenient. The Lu family had even mortgaged their house. If Meng Qianqian hadn't redeemed the house in time, the family would have been homeless long ago.

"In fact, I am not an unreasonable person. A woman obeys her father at home and her husband outside. I am happy to spend some money on my husband. But my husband is a man who stands tall and proud. Now he has made great achievements in the war and is a role model for the three armies. I think... he would not be willing to spend a woman's money. It's okay for me to use my dowry to support my husband, but if I ruin his reputation, I will be blamed for it. What do you think?"

Meng Qianqian spoke the sharpest words in the gentlest tone.

If Lu Lingxiao were still a man, he would never give up his self-esteem.

Meng Qianqian sighed, "How about this, I'll keep it a secret for my husband! Madam Li, go get the silver and settle Miss Lin's bill! Don't ever say it was given by me! Say it was my husband's own military pay! My husband can afford to support his own woman!"

"No need!"

Lu Lingxiao stood up with a cold expression and left!

Nanny Li and Banxia breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, they were so afraid that the general would be angry with the young lady and attack his own young lady directly!

"Miss, you have completely torn off your veil today. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be prepared for the worst. If a dog is desperate, it will jump over the wall. If you really anger your son-in-law, he will divorce you in anger... What should we do? By then, they won't return the dowry, and we will have no choice."

It’s true that the dowry belongs to the woman, but where is there so much justice in the world?

In the final analysis, for those who are divorced, it is because their parents' family cannot prevail over their husband's family, and if they can prevail, they will just get divorced.

The young lady is unfamiliar with the capital and has no backing, so it will be difficult for her to defeat the Lu family.

When Banxia heard this, she immediately panicked: "Miss!"

Meng Qianqian said: "It's okay."

There are seven reasons for a man to divorce his wife, and there are three reasons why a woman cannot divorce her.

If you have a wife but have nowhere to go, you won’t leave her; if you mourn for three years, you won’t leave her; if you were poor at first but rich later, you won’t leave her.

It means that a man who has no natal home to return to cannot divorce, a man who has to mourn for his husband's family for three years cannot divorce, and a man who married his wife from a poor family but later became rich cannot divorce.

She had completed the mourning period for Lu Lingxiao and his grandfather. If Lu Lingxiao wanted to divorce her, there was no way!

However, Nanny Li's concerns are not unfounded.

She really should have planned ahead.

"Mammy, go get all the account books from the past few years and calculate how much of my dowry is left."
