Remarry 9,000 Years Old
Chapter 5: The Secret of the Aunt's Money
Ning Su had no living parents, and Old Madam Jiang could not bear his kneeling, so he only bowed to heaven and earth.
Everyone looked at each other. Although it was against etiquette, no one dared to say a word.
When the couple were bowing to each other, Shen Nanqiao was wearing a veil and when she turned around, she lost her balance and staggered, and was about to fall to the ground.
A hand wearing a ring engraved with red gold helped her.
Shen Nanqiao's heart tightened, and the blood-stained hand tightly holding the medicine bottle in his previous life suddenly popped into his mind.
Her tears fell without warning and landed right on the back of Ning Su's hand.
The other person hesitated for a moment in supporting her, probably thinking that she regretted it, and was about to let go.
Shen Nanqiao noticed this action and without any embarrassment, he quickly held Ning Su's hand.
Her hands were too small to hold it, so she added another hand, fearing that the other party would change his mind and run away.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the other party froze for a moment, but ultimately did not dodge.
This is because he is afraid that she will lose face.
This man has always taken care of her silently.
In her previous life, she always woke up in the middle of the night, but in order to avoid suspicion, Ning Su could not stay in the room to watch over her, so he stayed on the roof of his house and watched over her for half the night.
So every time she had a nightmare, Ning Su would appear at the first moment. At first she just thought it was a coincidence, but later when she found his clothes were wet with dew, she understood everything.
Thinking of this, she hated herself more and more for being timid in her previous life.
Ning Su had no idea of the ups and downs in her heart.
Just as he was about to leave after paying his respects, he heard a message suddenly come from the front yard saying that someone from the palace had been sent to give a reward to the Crown Prince's wife, and asked her to go and express her gratitude immediately.
This happened in the previous life, and Shen Nanqiao should have been the one to go.
It was just that everything was in chaos at the time, and Shen Nanqiao's heart was solely on Ning Ziyu, so the old lady sent someone to accept the reward.
The nobles in the palace felt that Shen Nanqiao's attitude was too disrespectful and they disliked her from then on.
She will not make the same mistake again in this life.
Ning Ziyu became eager to hear this and wanted Shen Jingyi to collect the reward.
He was frightened into silence by Ning Suzhuang's unintentional glance.
"Who is coming?" he asked calmly.
"It's the eunuch of Cining Palace." The visitor reported respectfully.
Ning Su frowned.
The Queen Mother’s people?
Logically speaking, the news from the palace shouldn't have been reported so quickly.
Ning Su patted the little white hand that was still holding onto him.
"I will go there in person and ask Liuyun to take you back to Songchangxuan first."
Liuyun is Ning Su's top-notch guard, who he personally cultivated since childhood and is absolutely one of his own.
Shen Nanqiao felt more at ease.
"Watch your feet, don't fall rashly."
She retorted subconsciously.
“Since I was six years old, I have never wrestled.
The next moment, the hydrangea was placed in her hands, although Ning Su's expression could not be seen through the veil.
But I had the illusion that he was smiling.
Ning Su left, and Shen Nanqiao was also preparing to leave.
Aunt Xu, who had been like an ant on hot pan, finally couldn't help but stand in front.
"Second Miss, you can't take the dowry away..."
Shen Nanqiao chuckled under the veil. On the wedding day in her previous life, Aunt Shen insisted that half of the dowry was prepared by her for Shen Jingyi.
At the time, I was upset about the issue of having a concubine, so I didn't pay much attention to the dowry and let the other party take it away.
When they checked later, they found that many of the shop deeds had been stolen by Aunt Xu.
The boxes and chests that were filled to the brim when preparing for the wedding were now almost empty. The valuable jewelry and the priceless Shu brocade and Su embroidery were all looted.
Shen Nanqiao was so angry that he asked for it, but there was no reason to spit out something he had eaten.
Relying on Ning Ziyu's favor, Shen Jingyi flatly denied it and ridiculed Shen Nanqiao severely.
In his previous life, he had no successor and had a hard time in the Marquis' Mansion, all because of her squandering the dowry.
If I were to live my life over again and not seek retribution from this mother and daughter with interest, how would I justify the suffering I had endured?
Thinking of this, she spoke in a wronged tone.
"I've already given the position of Crown Prince's wife to my eldest sister. Are you trying to take my dowry too? Are you teaming up to bully a motherless child?"
Aunt Xu was accused of this and was afraid that everyone present would misunderstand her, so she hurried to explain.
"Miss, what are you talking about? The main thing is that among the dowry, there is also a share I gave to Jingyi. Originally, I thought that it would be the same for the sisters to marry the prince together, but now if you marry somewhere else, you have to share one."
Shen Nanqiao raised his eyebrows but pretended to be stupid.
"Could it be that Auntie has known that she has a relationship with the prince? Otherwise, why did the younger sister bring her elder sister's dowry with her when she got married?" She exclaimed, "Could it be that Auntie was the pimp?"
Aunt Xu was terrified. She couldn't bear the accusation of leading the prince astray.
He subconsciously glanced at the stern-faced Marquis' wife and quickly denied it.
"That's not true, Miss, please don't talk nonsense!"
"Then please explain, Auntie. Why are you coming to the wedding banquet with a dowry?"
Aunt Xu realized that she was deliberately making things difficult for her, and she was so angry that she stepped forward and tried to pull Shen Nanqiao's sleeve.
A sword was faster than her and suddenly appeared right under her nose, scaring Aunt Xu so much that she screamed.
"Stay away from my wife."
As the clear and bright voice of a young boy rang in his ears, Shen Nanqiao felt more confident.
"So, Auntie is greedy for money and wants to make some money from me? Well, carry the box of cups and plates over. We are sisters, so just consider it as a gift."
This sentence almost made Aunt Xu faint.
She had originally decided to marry her daughter off today, so she brought all her treasured possessions along with Shen Nanqiao's dowry box.
She had wanted to take advantage of the chaos to get more of Shen Nanqiao's dowry, but this damn girl not only embezzled her share, but also gave her some worthless things as if she was giving alms to a beggar.
"Miss, you are going too far, right?"
"We are sisters. Giving is a favor, and not giving is a duty. Why are you still complaining?" Shen Nanqiao smiled under the veil. "Since you don't want it, Liuyun, carry all the dowry to Songchangxuan. Don't leave anything out."
Aunt Xu immediately became anxious and wanted to stop them, but the sword was still in front of her.
But Shen Jingyi didn't understand and sneered.
"Pah, who cares about your little stuff? Do you think you're giving it to a beggar?"
After saying this, he pulled Aunt Xu and spoke of his lofty ambitions.
"A good man does not eat the food of a divided family, and a good woman does not wear the clothes she wore when she got married. Women should be independent. Why should I take advantage of her small dowry? I can earn it myself in the future."
Aunt Xu stared at Shen Jingyi, so angry that she couldn't utter a word.
The dowry for a married girl is prepared by her family from the moment she is born.
From big things like shops and fields to small things like cups, plates and utensils, everything will be bought for my daughter. That will be her support for the rest of her life!
Her family was extremely poor, but she had been in charge of the household affairs during the years when her mistress was away, and had saved up quite a bit of money.
It doesn't matter that Shen Jingyi refused the dowry, it was just like throwing away her life savings.
This is not the most regrettable thing. What makes people angry is that the money she saved with great difficulty was actually given to that little bitch Shen Nanqiao to buy dowry.
It’s tens of thousands of taels!
But Shen Nanqiao added fuel to the fire.
"Since sister can't bear to see me spend money, I will refuse it disrespectfully. The pot should be matched with the lid. I wish sister and the prince will be in love forever and stop causing trouble for others."
After saying this, Pianran followed the bridesmaid and left.
"Don't leave, Miss. At least leave the box of pots and bowls behind."
Every bit of catch now counts, no matter how small a fly is, it is still meat.
"My eldest sister said she doesn't want it, so aunt, please don't embarrass her." Shen Nanqiao said this from a distance.
Aunt Xu suffered a loss and was ridiculed. She was so angry that her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Shen Jingyi was angry and anxious, and immediately panicked, causing chaos at the scene.
Shen Nanqiao sneered silently under her veil as she walked.
This concubine sister had a smooth life in Pingyuan Marquis Mansion in her previous life, and part of it was due to her dowry.
Otherwise, how could the wife of Marquis Pingyuan be nice to her?
In this life, she will soon find out that without money, she will have difficulty taking a single step in her husband's family.
Thinking of this, she raised her head with satisfaction, and was about to happily step into the new bridal chamber.
There was a scream, and then someone rushed out and ran straight into her arms.
