Chapter 615: greedy dowry
Next to the old lady sat a graceful and luxurious middle-aged woman, that was Mrs. Shangshu, and everyone else was standing.
Only the seated person raised a cup and drank tea. Two maids were standing behind and fanning, and there were no less than ten kinds of desserts on the coffee table in front of them.
Zhang Hao came forward to greet him, his face was respectful, and his heart was slandered. What a bull. At this time, their Shangshu Mansion still has food to make cakes?
"My grandson greets my grandmother and my mother." Zeng Yongrui limped forward and knelt to greet him.
Neither the old lady nor the Shangshu meant to call him to get up. Those who drink tea drink tea, and those who eat snacks eat snacks.
And Xiao Sisi's stepmother stepped forward and acted coquettishly: "Grandma~ you drink slowly, don't burn yourself~"
"Giggle... The grandson's daughter-in-law is filial piety, what's the matter with you?" The old lady's triangular eyes narrowed slightly.
"Grandmother~ You have to decide for Hong'er~ Miss Sisi beat the young master and was pulled away by the maids. Master Zhang said she would report to the saint."
"You are talking nonsense. It's obviously your maid who is beating Xiao Sisi with a wooden stick. Look, old lady, Xiao Sisi's arms are all bruised."
"It was she who fell by herself. Young Master Zhang didn't see anything and was talking nonsense. Tell me, did anyone beat Miss Sisi?"
"Oh, you are so noisy, what kind of manners are you, and do you take your old body in your eyes?"
The old lady roared angrily and poured another half a cup before she was satisfied.
Zhang Hao said in his heart, Oh my God, Im convinced, you can act more than my grandfather
"Old Madam, look at your great-granddaughter's whole body being bruised by your granddaughter's maid, do you still think it's noisy?" Zhang Hao suppressed his anger.
"Cough," the old lady cleared her throat and said to the others, "all of you retreat."
Everyone retreated one after another, and even Mrs. Shang Shu also retreated. A granddaughter was not worth her trouble.
It is also very hard for her to take care of the entire Shangshu Mansion, and there are still many things to arrange.
Only the old lady was left in the room, as well as Zhang Hao and the young lady. The old lady was slowly eating snacks and drinking tea.
Zhang Hao and the femme fatale stared wide-eyed in the room, and it took a long time to hear the old lady speak.
"Master Zhang wants to interfere in the family affairs of our Shangshu Mansion?" The old lady had a mandate, so she didn't speak so politely.
"How dare I take care of your manor's affairs. I am entrusted by the Marquis of Zhennan to take good care of Xiao Sisi."
Zhang Hao said without being arrogant or humble, if he was before, he really wouldn't dare to take care of Xiao Sisi's affairs.
Now that Chu Lixuan is supporting him, what is he afraid of, "My son is still saying that, just because of Xiao Sisi's injury, even if you report it to the Holy Master, you have no reason."
"Then what do you think? There are things that can be discussed slowly. It is normal for a child to fall and knock." Jiang is still old and hot.
"My son wants to take away Xiao Sisi and Zeng Yongrui." Zhang Hao didn't have time to ink with the old lady.
The old lady and the grandson-in-law looked at each other and felt that this could be agreed. Zeng Yongrui was an abandoned concubine, and there were many grandchildren in Shangshufu.
Xiao Sisi is a girl, take it with you, the old lady nodded and continued to drink tea.
And the young lady got a hint and said arrogantly: "Two waste people, it's not impossible if you want to take them away, but..."
Zhang Hao immediately looked up at her. Usually, if the road ahead is not broken, and the road back is not sealed, there will be one in the middle, but... of!
What the **** is this viper woman trying to do? Although Zhang Hao can't guess it, he will wait for the next paragraph.
Sure enough, the scorpion woman spoke again: "You can't take anything in the house with you, and let Mrs. Ben remember that after leaving the gate of our Shangshu mansion, if you want to come in in the future, there will be no door."
She couldn't be more happy in her heart, she had only been married to Xiao Sisi's father for half a year, and had not given birth to a child yet, that little master was born by a concubine.
Originally didn't care about her business, but she was a black heart lotus. She was thinking about Chu Xiao's dowry, so she wanted to kill Xiao Sisi in disguise.
Since Mr. Zhang wants to take people away, then the dowry is hers. The dowry of the daughter of the Hou's mansion is much richer than that of a concubine of the palace.
Zhang Hao didn't bother to talk nonsense and picked up Xiao Sisi and left. It stands to reason that Chu Xiao's dowry should be reserved for Xiao Sisi.
However, Zhang Hao is not a fool, a little girl can't eat much, and the people in the house want to kill her, but they want to swallow Chu Xiao's dowry.
Thats all, its a blessing to be able to keep a small life, so dont think about those things outside your body.
On the other side, Jiang Xinyan in the space secretly complained, she knew that the ancient concubine had a hard time, but she did not expect it to be so miserable.
Even if he is a succubus, he is still in the blood of Lord Shang Shu, how could he be like this?
But these things are obviously not in her control, Jiang Xinyan can only look at Zeng Yongrui with a kind of sympathy.
While Jiang Xinyan was sighing, Chu Lixuan walked in silently, "Xinxin~ You heard what we said just now."
"Huh? No! I'm studying medical books, husband, see you're in a bad mood, what's the problem?"
Chu Lixuan looked at the little charming wife who obviously knew, and let's talk about their conversation again.
"Isn't this minister too cruel? No matter what, Zeng Yongrui is also his own."
"It's like this in big families. The sons born out of direct line are superior to others even if they are trash. The children born out of concubines are useful to the family and will be valued."
Chu Lixuan was very grateful to his daughter-in-law again, "If I hadn't met you, my husband would definitely be worse than him."
Jiang Xinyan: "..." If I hadn't met you, my mother would have been miserable. Although she has a medical skill, she can only eat tree bark when encountering a plague of locusts.
"Husband~ Don't be too grateful to me, the best encounter is fate. If God notices you, there is always a way to arrange your future."
"Xinxin~ My husband has lived a life of fine clothes and food since he was a child. He seems to be carefree, but I was not happy at that time. My grandfather gave me too much responsibility."
The couple remembered bitterly and sweetly for a while, and then lingered together...
Besides, Wang Wenshan, who joined the Shaoqing of Dali Temple at a young age, is not capable of anything.
After an afternoon of interrogation, the mastermind behind the scenes was interrogated. He was really his good second brother's cousin, and Wang Wenshan didn't say anything about it.
Directly sent him and his accomplices to big prison. No matter how severely tortured he was to extract a confession, his second brother and the cousin did not dare to confess his second brother.
And his second brother had no evidence of direct involvement, at most he gave money to his cousin to instruct him to frame Wang Wenshan.
In the past, his stepmother could use his wife and three children to blackmail Wang Wenshan into letting them go.
Since he divorced his wife, Wang Wenshan moved out of the palace compound, bought a small yard by himself, and lived with his three children.
This is also his stepmother's suffering, and can't help her parents.
