"Do Zhu and the others know about this?"

Gu Zhao said with a smile.

"She didn't know and thought these things were fake..."

Old Madam Xie smiled and held Gu Zhao's hand, feeling extremely happy.

"Good good."

When Mrs. Xie thought of Minister Gu, her face turned a little ugly again.

Zhu had done so many things, it was impossible for Minister Gu not to know about it. But Minister Gu said nothing, which showed that he agreed with such things. Minister Gu was too biased.

Without his daughter's dowry, Minister Gu's mansion would be in great decline now. How could they have such a good life as they do now?

"Your grandfather and your third uncle will find a way to help you get your dowry back. You must not get into a conflict with your father and others... If they use filial piety as an excuse, it will be very disadvantageous to you..." Old Madam Xie warned her granddaughter.

"Grandma, they will return the things." Gu Zhao said with a smile.

Gu Zhao had dinner at Xie's house before returning to Qinhou Mansion with Qin Chen.

Their carriage happened to meet Qin Ye's on the way back. Seeing the carriage next to them, Qin Ye's face looked very ugly.

He didn't expect that Gu Zhao and Qin Chen would come back to ask for the dowry, and they also wanted the other half of the dowry, which was also more than 100,000 taels of silver.

This is more than 100,000 taels of silver. Now, it is difficult for the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion to take out even 10,000 taels of silver, let alone 100,000 taels of silver in cash.

His gaze fell on Gu Rong's face.

Seeing her husband's cold face, Gu Rong gently pulled Qin Ye's sleeve.

"Brother Ye."

Qin Ye didn't say anything, his face still looked a little ugly.

"Brother Ye, don't be angry. Rong'er didn't expect things to turn out like this..." Gu Rong said and started crying.

Qin Ye sighed and said.

"I know you can't be blamed for this. But this incident ruined the big plan. And in order to marry you, our family also spent tens of thousands of taels of silver. Before, my mother-in-law said that she would let my mother participate in the charcoal business, but then something like that happened and she lost a lot of money. Now my mother is very angry..."

When Gu Rong heard Qin Ye talking about charcoal, he became even more anxious.

My mother also lost a lot of money because of the charcoal business.

So, the reason why my mother-in-law was so angry these days was, on the one hand, because she was scalded by her, but the bigger reason might be because of the loss of money.

"If the current state of the mansion were to spread, it might become a joke in the capital... We can't ask you to use your dowry money to subsidize the mansion."

"I am willing, Brother Ye, I am willing to give you my dowry. You are my husband, and we will share happiness and difficulties in the future."

Qin Ye still disagreed.

When Gu Rong saw Qin Ye's expression, she immediately had an idea in her mind. She planned to take out the 20,000 taels of silver notes from the bottom of the box and give them to her mother-in-law. When the situation in the mansion gets better in the future, her mother-in-law will definitely give the money back to her.

After Gu Rong returned home, he immediately went to see Zhu.

When Duan heard that Gu Rong wanted to see her, she was reluctant to see him. But when Madam Duan said that the young mistress had brought a large stack of silver, Duan immediately changed her mind.

"Let her in."

When Gu Rong heard the maid say that her mother-in-law asked her to come in, she walked in immediately.

After seeing Duan, Gu Rong bowed respectfully.

"The daughter-in-law has met her mother."

Duan didn't say anything. After a long while, she asked Gu Rong to get up.
