The abandoned wife married into a wealthy family, and the scumbag father wailed every night

Luo Jiaojiao's face turned pale. She had just heard Gu Yiyao praising Gu Yingxue and she couldn't control her emotions.

Now that I realize what a disaster I've been in!

After today, rumors about her rotten face will spread all over the capital!

She could never raise her head again in front of the noble lady!

It’s all that damn Gu Yingxue’s fault!

I shouldn't have felt sorry for her back then. I should have killed her with a single blow!

She is a lowly person with a face like that, she deserves to die! I shouldn't have spared her just for the sake of my relationship with my husband!

Luo Jiaojiao kept cursing Gu Yingxue in her heart.

He completely forgot that the reason he did not kill Gu Yingxue was that he wanted Gu Yingxue to die in torture with an ugly face.

"It's okay! It's okay! When we go back, we won't admit that we've ever been here. This street is populated by ordinary people of low status. No one knows you. We'll just refuse to admit it!"

Nanny Li had no other choice but to comfort Luo Jiaojiao.

But she also knew that everything was settled the moment Luo Jiaojiao took out the jade token that symbolized her identity!

Their denials were in vain.

Unless... unless Luo Jiaojiao heals her face as quickly as possible and then appears in public, the rumors will be self-defeating!

"Mammy, how much silver do we have?"

Luo Jiaojiao sat in the carriage back to the Lin Mansion, grabbed Li Ma's hand with a nervous look and asked!

Nanny Li looked at Luo Jiaojiao with a bitter expression:

"Madam, you forgot that your dowry was stolen by thieves and has not been recovered yet. Now we only have the 5000 taels of silver that the old lady gave you a while ago. Add to that the income from your dowry shop and the farm, and after deducting the daily expenses of the Lin family, there are probably more than 300 taels."

Nanny Li felt a little sad after saying this. Who could have imagined that her wife, the legitimate daughter of a marquis and the wife of the current number one scholar, would only have a few thousand taels of silver in her hands.

Of course, 5000 taels of silver is something that many ordinary people would never dare to dream of in their lifetime.

But for these nobles, 5000 taels of silver were really not enough. A set of headgear that was barely presentable would cost almost two thousand taels of silver.

If you were to attend a big banquet and want to buy a nice outfit, 5000 taels of silver would be just enough.

What's more, the daily expenses of the Lin family are at least 200 taels of silver a month. The income from the lady's dowry shop and the farm has to support the whole family of the Lin family, so they really can't save any money.

"Why is that all?!"

Luo Jiaojiao looked at Li Ma in disbelief. She was the legitimate daughter of the Yangcheng Marquis's mansion, but she only had this little money? !

Nanny Li looked at her master who was out of touch with the world, hesitating to speak, and finally couldn't help but speak:

"Madam, if most of your dowry shops were not in good locations, and your dowry farms were not top-quality paddy fields, we wouldn't even be able to save this little money now!"

"Mammy, I remember that the income from my dowry shop and farm was 1000 taels of silver a month, right?"

Luo Jiaojiao looked at Nanny Li with suspicion.

It was as if Nanny Li had embezzled her money!

Luo Jiaojiao's eyes deeply chilled Li Ma's heart.

She is Luo Jiaojiao's wet nurse. She has been serving Luo Jiaojiao wholeheartedly over the years and treats her like her own daughter.

But I didn't expect that she would doubt herself so much!

"Madam, before, the daily purchases for our Lin Mansion were all done by the steward of the Marquis Mansion when he was shopping for the Marquis Mansion. But since you came back from your mother's house last time, the steward of the Marquis Mansion has never come again."

"The daily necessities of our Lin Mansion are all purchased with your money. These are all ordered by the master, and he said that you agreed."

Nanny Li explained to Luo Jiaojiao with lowered eyebrows.

Luo Jiaojiao's eyes widened after hearing this. The Lin family's monthly expenses were so high?

"The daily expenses of the Lin Mansion are about 200 taels of silver a month. There are also some maids, servants, and housekeepers who have monthly salaries. It is more than 100 taels of silver. In addition, the master withdraws some silver from the account from time to time. Now there is only this much left in the account."

Luo Jiaojiao was a little slow to react. She had been the one supporting the Lin family for so many years and she was used to it.

So, when Lin Zhixue asked about spending her money first for the daily expenses of the Lin family, she agreed without thinking too much.

She has gotten used to giving money to Lin Zhixue over the years.

Therefore, every time Lin Zhixue said he needed money, she would ask Lin Zhixue to withdraw the money without thinking.

But she didn't expect that she was so poor. She was the legitimate daughter of a marquis!

"Madam, you should think more about yourself. Before, the clothes and accessories for you, the young lady, and the young master were sent to the Marquis' Mansion every now and then, but the Marquis' Mansion hasn't sent anything to the Lin Mansion for nearly three months!"

"You, the young lady, and the young master haven't bought new clothes or jewelry for three months. These things require money. You can't just follow your son-in-law in everything from now on!"

Nanny Li thought about it and advised her earnestly.

"Hasn't the Marquis' Mansion sent anyone over?"

Luo Jiaojiao still couldn't quite believe it. Could her father and mother bear not seeing her for such a long time? !

Didn’t her mother send someone to the Lin Mansion to pick her up after not seeing her for a few days?

Luo Jiaojiao suddenly realized at this moment that she had been worrying about her face for a while and had completely forgotten that the Marquis' Mansion had not sent anyone for a long time!

Nanny Li felt very sad when she saw Luo Jiaojiao's appearance. Luo Jiaojiao had been spoiled too much by the Marquis's family over the years and became ignorant of the ways of the world.

The current attitude of the Marquis' Mansion is clearly that it no longer wants to have anything to do with the Lin Mansion!

I'm already trying my best to distance myself from the Lin family!

Luo Jiaojiao had obviously become a married woman abandoned by the Marquis's Mansion!

But she didn't realize the estrangement from her mother's side at all.

Nanny Li sighed and advised Luo Jiaojiao earnestly:

"Madam, it doesn't matter whether the Marquis's Mansion sends someone or not. The most important thing is that you guard your dowry shop and farm and live your life well."

"You are already a married woman, so it is best for you to have a close relationship with your natal family. But the most important support for a woman is her dowry. It would be great if her father, brothers, and nephews are willing to help. But...but if they are unwilling to help, you can still be rich for the rest of your life by just keeping your dowry."

Luo Jiaojiao looked at Li Ma in confusion:

"Mammy, what are you talking about? I am the daughter of the Marquis, the only daughter of my father and mother! I am the only aunt in the Marquis's mansion, if they don't help me, who will they help?"

"What do you mean it doesn't matter whether someone comes from the Marquis' Mansion or not? It must be my eldest brother's idea. I must tell my father and mother about this and see if they will still speak for my eldest brother this time!"

After Luo Jiaojiao finished speaking, she looked at Nanny Li with a relieved look on her face, secretly happy that she had finally caught something wrong with her elder brother!

He actually dared to ignore me for three months. Just wait and see how Daddy will deal with Big Brother then!

She wanted to see if her mother was still biased towards her eldest brother this time!

Nanny Li looked at Luo Jiaojiao for a long time and couldn't come back to her senses.

She had never realized that Luo Jiaojiao could be so stupid. She had made her words so clearly, but she still could not see that the Marquis' Mansion had given up on her as a daughter who married out.

Without the old marquis's tacit consent, how could I dare to act like this? !

Nanny Li sighed deeply and decided to continue to persuade Luo Jiaojiao:

"Madam, even the heinous crime of confiscating the property and exiling a woman is not as serious as that of marrying off a daughter. This means that once a woman is married, she and her parents' family are two separate families. If the husband a woman marries is helpful to her parents' family, her parents' family may have a closer relationship with the married woman."

"But if the woman's husband's family is of no help to her own family, the family that truly loves the woman may be willing to help her husband's family, but if her own family is unwilling to accept this burden and takes the initiative to cut off contact, then the woman and her own family will be completely two different families!"
