We are all reborn, of course we have to overthrow it and start over again to take the whole family f
Chapter 30 Decentralization
Xiahou Wenyuan had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.
The Liu family is a prominent family in the capital, and they have seen all kinds of good things. Xiahou Zian is trying to rob a bride, and if the betrothal gift is ordinary or small, there is no hope of passing.
As expected, Yun was worthy of being born in the Taifu Mansion, and the things in her dowry were all extraordinary.
What was sent to the Jiang family was the best of the Yun family's dowry. Especially the red gold ring inlaid with the top-grade emerald cat's eye, which made the Liu family's mistress love it so much that she agreed to the marriage on the spot.
He didn't care at all that Liu Yunrong was engaged to two husbands and her engagement with Xiahou Changfeng had not been cancelled.
Now think about it, how proud I was when I gave the betrothal gift, how embarrassed I am when it is being asked for back.
The most troublesome thing is that I dare not take back the things given as betrothal gifts even if I am beaten to death!
He couldn't afford to lose that person.
"Mother, if Yunniang keeps pretending to be sick and doesn't go out, how can we get all this money?"
Xiahou Wenyuan couldn't hold it in any longer and started nagging again.
After the incident, the mother and son discussed that if they wanted to settle the account, they had to start with Yun. But to get the money, they had to have the power of the housekeeper first.
Humph! Old Lady Xiahou snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "She is the daughter-in-law, and I am the mother-in-law. Since ancient times, there has never been a daughter-in-law who disobeys her mother-in-law. Taking back the housekeeping power is just a matter of a word."
Old Madam Xiahou is so tsundere that she doesn't even bother pretending.
"That's right, mom is right. Brother, you're just too good to her. You've made her crazy. It's like this family can't exist without her."
Xiahou Wenyan was shaking her feet and adding fuel to the fire. All the dowry of Yun in her hands had been taken away by her brother and was about to be returned.
She was holding her breath!
If Yun Shi hadn't been so nosy and insisted on going to Jingzhao Yinfu to file a complaint, those things would have been hers. She also hoped to turn them into her dowry, so that she would have the confidence to stay in her husband's family in the future.
"Madam, the lady is here."
Nanny Wu, who had gone to urge Yun, came back happily to claim credit. The pride in her eyes and on her lips was as if she had made a great contribution and was asking for reward.
"Well, go down!" Old Madam Xiahou responded lightly, and fiddled with the beads in her hand twice.
Yun was born slender, and now that she was ill, she looked even more fragile. She wore a light blue brocade dress, and perhaps to avoid catching a cold, she put on a bright yellow satin feather cape, and a bridle on her forehead of the same color as the cape, and walked in slowly, greeting the old lady.
"The daughter-in-law has met the mother-in-law and the husband. Ahem..."
Just after performing the ceremony, Yun started coughing non-stop. She covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, but could not hide her slightly trembling body.
"The person who followed him is dead. He doesn't even know how to serve the master. Quickly help Yunniang sit down." Old Lady Xiahou rarely showed kindness to Yun.
"Yunniang, how come you are so ill? You were fine a few days ago. Come, sit here." Xiahou Wenyuan stepped forward quickly to show his courtesy, and his loving wife's personality was full of charm.
With a smile on his face, he reached out his hand to help Yun.
Yun inadvertently moved her body, cleverly avoiding the hand extended by Xiahou Wenyuan, and sat on a chair beside her.
She now felt that if Xiahou Wenyuan touched her, she would find it dirty.
"Thank you for your concern, mother-in-law. It's Yunniang's health that's not good. I don't know why, but I didn't take good care of myself during the confinement period after giving birth to a girl. The day before yesterday, I went back to my parents' home and caught a cold. I was also upset and fell ill. Ahem, ahem, it's Yunniang's fault that I can't show my respect to mother-in-law."
Yun spoke as gently as before, but to Old Lady Xiahou and Xiahou Wenyuan, it sounded a little harsh.
Xiahou Wenyuan smiled awkwardly, "It's my husband's fault for not taking Yunniang into consideration. Li Fu, quickly call the palace doctor to come and diagnose Madam."
Belated care is cheaper than grass. Yun raised the corner of her mouth meaningfully. If she hadn't known about Xiahou Wenyuan's scumbag behavior, she might have been deceived by him again.
This time, the court physician arrived in time. In less than a quarter of an hour, he was standing in the main room of Rong Xi Tang.
After a thorough examination, the court doctor said, "My Lord, Madam is fine. She just caught a cold. She will be fine after taking two doses of wind-dispersing and heat-dispersing medicine. However..."
"Just what? Why are you so slow in speaking?" Seeing that the court doctor was hesitant to speak, Xiahou Wenyan started talking.
The court doctor frowned slightly, and began to complain about this young lady in his heart. She was still so rude and eccentric, not even a bit like a lady from a noble family. No wonder she had such a bad reputation among the noble ladies in the Beijing circle, and was not chosen in several marriage proposals.
"It's just that Madam was injured during childbirth, so she needs to rest for a while. And during this period, it's best not to worry too much."
"Really!" Xiahou Wenyan did not hide her excitement at all. She jumped up and was eager to try.
"Sister-in-law needs to rest and not work hard. In this case, her housekeeper rights should be handed over."
Uh……
Yun and Nanny Zhao and others who followed looked at each other in bewilderment, thinking that the way they ate was too hasty and too ugly.
I thought they would be happy, but I didn't expect them to be so happy. However, they were only happy for a little while.
Before Yun entered the mansion, the mansion was just an empty shell. As soon as she entered the mansion, she was made the housekeeper, hoping to use her dowry to fill the holes and prolong the life of the increasingly weak mansion.
Over the years, the Yun family has invested a lot. From the renovation of the mansion to the daily food and drink, all are paid for by the Yun family.
By the way, even the disgusting Xiahou Wenyuan spent money on his mistress by defrauding the Yun family.
For the dowry that Yun loved so much, although it was just a small amount of money, it was like a dung beetle crawling on one's feet. It couldn't hurt anyone but it was disgusting.
Haha, I have lived a good life for too long and thought that all these were the family assets of the Marquis’ Mansion.
The Yun family originally wanted to avoid him for a few days and let Xiahou Wenyuan go somewhere else to raise the compensation, but they didn't expect that they thought so much.
Well, I can take this opportunity to return this money-losing mess of the Marquis' Mansion, so that I don't have to worry about it in the future.
"Wen Yan, how can you say that? Yun Niang is your elder sister-in-law after all. But, Yun Niang, your health is more important. You have been working hard in the Marquis' Mansion these years. It is really hard. You should take a break and take good care of your health. That is the most important thing."
People are old and refined, and ghosts are old and spiritual.
Old Lady Xiahou was apparently reprimanding her daughter, but in reality she was asking her to take back the housekeeper's power, which was set in stone.
"Mother, my daughter is right. The court doctor has said that my sister-in-law should not work any more..."
Xiahou Wenyan was about to continue talking, but was pulled back by Xiahou Wenyuan. When the old marquis passed away, she was still very young, and she was a little afraid of this elder brother.
Although Nanny Zhao knew that the Yun family had done this and wanted to get out of the mess, she was angry and didn't want to let them succeed so easily.
"Miss, although the young lady is ill, the people below are fine. There is no problem with the housekeeper's affairs."
When the Xiahou siblings heard this, their faces instantly became uglier than if they had eaten shit.
Especially Xiahou Wenyuan, Lu Meimei is still suffering in the prison cell of Jingzhao Yin. I heard that her buttocks were beaten to pieces, and if she is not treated in time, her legs will probably be disabled.
This matter really cannot be delayed.
Moreover, the longer the night, the more troubles one may have. The fact that Zi'an is Meimei's son cannot be revealed at this time. The identities of a thief and the son of a concubine will cause too much damage to Zi'an's future.
It is still more important to raise money to redeem the person.
