MTL - Night of the Divorce! A Proud Lady Was Forced to Marry the Emperor’s Uncle-Chapter 34 dowry

  Chapter 34 Dowry

  When Jiang Peihuan walked to the gate of Jutang, Zhou Rongfang and Liu Xiu were still arguing.

  Hearing this, Liu Xiu couldn't help frowning, "Second Sister-in-law, where did you start talking about this? When will I not let you prepare a dowry for Ruyun?"

   "Then why are you preventing me from taking money from the public?"

   "Our family already has regulations. When several sisters get married, except for Huan'er whose dowry is 100,000 taels of silver, the dowry for other sisters is 50,000 taels of silver."

   "You have already taken 50,000 taels from the public, so naturally I can't let you take any more silver."

   "The dowry gift from the Huainan Prince's Mansion is at least worth one hundred thousand taels. With fifty thousand taels alone, how can Yun'er buy a dowry?"

   "This needs to be subsidized by the second sister-in-law herself. If you can't help it, I can't help it either."

   This has been the case since ancient times. When the wife of the family marries a daughter, she does not need to subsidize a little from her dowry.

   Unless it is a concubine.

  Liu Xiu just said it casually, but Zhou Rongfang's words fell into Zhou Rongfang's ears, almost slapping her.

   "Third brother and sister, do you think that you are born in a merchant, so you can be proud of money?"

   "Second sister-in-law, what do you mean by that?"

  Hearing the word merchant, Liu Xiu frowned.

   Zhou Rongfang became more and more proud, "Although my natal family is poor, Hanlin is a decent official family, unlike you, the merchants are low..."

   "Second Aunt, be careful!"

  Jiang Peihuan walked into the Jutang coldly, looked at Zhou Rongfang, and said in a low voice, "Third Aunt is from the Liu family, but the Liu family is already an imperial merchant, and she can speak up even in front of the emperor."

   "And the third aunt has married the third uncle, so she is a member of my Jiang family, so the second aunt is cautious."

  Jiang Peihuan's voice was not loud, but her tone was very severe.

  Hearing this, Liu Xiu's eyes showed a little touch, and Jiang Songbai's eyes were grateful, but also a little angry.

  Because his mother was from a merchant, he was often ridiculed by this second aunt since he was a child.

   Just when Zhou Rongfang was about to speak, she heard the old lady's voice, "What are you arguing about?"

  The old lady has already heard about the lawsuit here.

  Looked at Zhou Rongfang coldly, but didn't say anything.

  Just when she saw Jiang Peihuan, the old lady showed a gentle look in her eyes, "Who called you up, come over to grandma."

   "Grandmother, since this matter is related to Ruyun's dowry, Huan'er decided to call Ruyun and Sijin here."

  When Jiang Peihuan finished speaking, Jiang Ruyun and Jiang Sijin also walked in.

  Jiang Ruyun already knew that it was because of her dowry that her mother and Liu Xiu quarreled, and her eyes were very ugly.

   "Sister Yun, this matter is related to your dowry, what do you say?"

  The old lady glanced at Jiang Ruyun and spoke directly.

  Jiang Ruyun was silent for a few seconds, then whispered, "I listen to my mother in everything."

  Hearing this, the old lady's eyes showed a bit of disappointment, "Mother, you have also seen the dowry of the Huainan Palace, if the dowry is too poor, it will not be good for our Jiang family's reputation, so..."

   "So take fifty thousand taels from my dowry."

   "Huan'er, what nonsense are you talking about?"

  Hearing Jiang Peihuan's words, everyone looked different. Jiang Ruyun and Zhou Rongfang were surprised, and the old lady's eyes were full of anger.

Jiang Peihuan smiled and took the old lady's hand, "Grandmother, what I said is true, let's not say that Huan'er doesn't want to marry now, so it's useless to put the dowry money there. Even if I want to marry in the future , with grandma here, I don't think I will feel wronged Huan'er."

   "Ruyun is the first daughter of our Jiang family to marry, and the dowry should be richer, so let's give her half of Huaner's dowry silver."

   Anyway, she doesn't plan to get married anymore.

  In this life, she just wants to guard the Jiang family well, and she doesn't have extravagant hopes for getting married.

   It was just talking about getting married, why did she subconsciously think of that man.

   "Forget it, since Huaner said so, let's do as Huaner said."

   "It's just from the second child's family. Don't forget what Huan'er has done to you."

   "Mother, don't worry, my daughter-in-law is very grateful to Huanhuan."

  Zhou Rongfang was very satisfied with the result, so after hearing what the old lady said, she opened her mouth quickly.

   There was a solution to the matter, Jiang Peihuan didn't want to spend any more time with these people. After bowing to the old lady, she said softly, "Grandmother, Huan'er will go back to sleep first."

   "Go, don't come over tomorrow morning, sleep a little longer."

   "Yes, Huan'er knows."

   After finishing speaking, Jiang Peihuan walked directly to her plum garden, but when she reached the door, she heard a voice behind her.

"big sister?"

  Jiang Ruyun supported Lan'er's hand, and hurried to Jiang Peihuan.

  Seeing her, Jiang Peihuan's eyes showed a bit of surprise, but she still asked softly, "What do you want from me?"

   "Big sister, thank you for the dowry."

  When Jiang Ruyun was talking, Jiang Peihuan kept looking at her. Seeing the sincerity in her eyes, Jiang Peihuan shook her head, "You don't need to thank me. I'm not for you alone, but for the Jiang family."

   "You are still in confinement, go back and rest early."

  Jiang Ruyun wanted to say something else, but finally left in silence.

  When Jiang Ruyun's figure disappeared at the gate of the plum garden, the expression in Jiang Peihuan's eyes changed instantly. She pulled out the long whip around her waist, and she lashed backhand to the plum tree on the left, "Who, come out for me!"

   "Miss, it's me, please show mercy."

  Han Feng looked at the long whip coming straight towards him, and hurriedly made a sound.

   Seeing him, Jiang Peihuan's eyes were a little surprised, she put away the long whip in her hand, and said in a cold voice, "What are you doing here?"

   "Miss, this subordinate is ordered to deliver something to you."

   While speaking, Han Feng handed Jiang Peihuan a palm-sized box.

  The box opened to reveal a delicate ruby ​​ring.

Han Feng took out the ring and said proudly, "Miss, don't look at this as a ring. When you press this ruby, the blade inside will pop out. This blade is made of cold iron, and it cuts like mud. .”

   "What is the meaning of King Cheng asking you to send this ring?"

   "This, I don't know, the master just asked me to deliver the things to the eldest lady."

   "If you don't get paid for nothing, you still get..."

   "Miss, you can't ignore death."

Before Jiang Peihuan finished speaking, Han Feng knelt down in front of her. If he hadn't been concerned about Jiang Peihuan's identity, he would have almost hugged her thigh, "Miss, this is an order from my master. If not, it will be miserable."

   "So Miss, you must accept this ring. If you really don't like it, you can return it to my master next time. What do you think?"
