The daily life of the concubine of the Prime Minister
Chapter 169 Re-hiring
Liu Yu looked at Mr. Chen Er, who was glaring at him angrily, and swallowed all the words of disapproval he was about to say.
The second wife always picked on her, and she really didn't want to do what they wanted.
She smiled innocently in return.
Here, without Uncle Chen Sanye saying anything, Uncle Chen smiled and said:
"If it weren't for my third brother's wife, it's hard to say whether these things would belong to us. It's only right that we give more betrothal gifts."
Master Chen Wu followed up and said, "Brother, what you said makes sense."
Master Chen vomited a mouthful of blood in his throat. He would never let the third son give so many things to the Marquis of Pingnan's Mansion.
He looked at Fourth Master Chen and kept winking at him. As long as his fourth brother stood on the same side as him, he would report it to his mother. Unless the money was compensated to all four rooms, the third brother would never be able to move this thing away and give it to the Pingnan Marquis Mansion.
But Mr. Chen Si is a man who knows what's going on.
Ever since the last incident, the key to the warehouse has been in the hands of Nanny Feng. If mother doesn't agree, can my third brother move out most of the things in the warehouse?
He didn't even know what his second brother was making a fuss about. Most of the family money was earned by his eldest brother, and the power was given by their mother. If he opposed it, he would not only offend his third brother, but also his eldest brother and mother. If he followed his second brother in making trouble, he would either be crazy or injured. There was no need for that!
Isn't life good now? He doesn't have to worry about anything. When others see him outside, they have to be respectful to him. If he offends his third brother and eldest brother, he won't be able to earn such a good life.
Fourth Master Chen shrugged decisively and took two steps back to stay away from his second brother:
"I agree with what my eldest brother said. We in the Chen family are grateful and repay our kindness. Third sister-in-law saved us, so giving these things is worth it."
Master Chen was directly isolated by them.
Master Chen didn't expect this result. His face turned the color of liver. After a long while, he managed to say:
"Ah, you will regret it sooner or later. The mother and son of Pingnan Marquis are just greedy for money. Giving it to them is like throwing meat buns at a dog!" After saying this, he angrily flicked his sleeves and turned away.
Uncle Chen simply couldn't understand what was going on in his second brother's mind? The betrothal gift was originally given by the Chen Mansion to the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, so why did he expect others to bring it back?
Did he think that Chang's betrothal gifts were brought back along with the dowry, and that others should do the same? This was totally unreasonable.
Uncle Chen smiled and explained to Liu Yu:
"Third brother's wife, my second brother is a bit confused. Don't listen to his nonsense. There is no reason to bring back these betrothal gifts. You don't have to take it to heart."
How could Liu Yu not understand? She responded on the surface, but in her heart she was thinking, although Liu Zhang had requested to be demoted and was no longer the Marquis of Pingnan, the Pingnan Marquisate was still headed by the Qiu family.
Not only did she want to make the Pingnan Marquisate unable to afford the betrothal gift, she also wanted Mrs. Qiu to give her a decent dowry.
After saying goodbye to the masters of the Chen family, Liu Yu boarded the front carriage and headed towards the Pingnan Marquis Mansion.
"Third Master, I don't want Qiu to get anything for free." Liu Yu nestled in Third Master Chen's arms and said lazily.
Master Chen gently pinched the soft flesh on her waist, half-closed his eyes, and enjoyed the feeling of snuggling together:
"Well, what do you want to do?"
Liu Yu told him his plan.
Now Mr. Chen San has been completely poisoned by Liu Yu. Whatever she says is what it is and he has no objection.
The two men agreed, and the carriage passed through Nanshi and arrived at the gate of Pingnan Marquis' Mansion.
When Mrs. Qiu heard that Mr. Chen San was coming to propose marriage, she was very happy and was waiting at the door, looking at the intersection eagerly.
Also waiting outside were Liu Heng, who had been granted the title of Marquis of Pingnan, and Aunt Wei.
In order to confuse people, Liu Yan was still pretending to be crazy in the Pingnan Marquis Mansion so as not to greet her outside.
Seeing the seemingly endless betrothal procession, Qiu couldn't suppress the smile on her face. She dropped her crutches and rushed over at full speed.
"Oh my, our Sister Yu is so lucky to meet Lord Chen. Unlike your sisters, whose lives are as fragile as paper and whose hearts are as high as the sky..." Qiu stepped forward and was about to shake Liu Yu's hand, as if the previous calculations had never happened.
Mr. Chen San would not spoil her. If he had not promised Yu'er, he would let her handle the affairs of the Pingnan Marquis' Mansion on her own.
It is impossible for the Qiu family to continue to show off their power here.
Qiu secretly gritted her teeth, but in order to successfully obtain these betrothal gifts, her face remained enthusiastic:
"Come on, come on, go into the house quickly." He gave a look to the nanny who had just been brought up from behind him.
The nanny understood what she meant and turned into the Pingnan Marquis' Mansion. She called out a dozen servants and went to take over the betrothal gifts brought from the Chen Mansion.
Seeing that no one was taking any action and was determined to let Qiu accept the betrothal gift, Aunt Wei became extremely anxious and was ready to step forward to stop them immediately.
Seeing this, Liu Yu walked over, grabbed Aunt Wei's hand, and shook his head silently.
Although Aunt Wei didn't understand what Liu Yu wanted to do, the prince said that she would do whatever his daughter asked her to do.
He didn't care about it anymore, took Liu Yu's hand, and turned to walk into the Pingnan Marquis Mansion.
Mr. Chen San didn't even look at Mrs. Qiu, and followed Liu Yu and the others straight into the Marquis of Pingnan's mansion.
Qiu didn't care at all about Liu Yu and the others ignoring her.
Her mind and eyes were filled with Liu Yu's betrothal gift. After Liu Yu and the others left, regardless of the fact that Liu Heng was still present, Qiu couldn't wait to walk to a box and open it. Inside was dazzling gold.
Qiu's eyes were fixed on the scene, and her saliva flowed out unconsciously.
It had been so long since she had seen so much gold, as if it had been since that woman died.
Finally, she saw this scene again, and all these things are hers now.
If that dead woman knew that, many years later, he had gotten so much money from her granddaughter, what would her reaction be? Just thinking about it makes me excited.
No, I must go and talk to her later.
This scene fell into the eyes of A Zhong, who was deliberately left behind by Liu Yu. This old witch was simply a greedy person. She didn't even think about the fact that she had sold her wife, so would her wife easily give her the betrothal gift?
People! Greed is doomed to suffer losses, and there will be a time for her to cry.
"Yu'er, take the betrothal gift back! If you give it to Qiu, she won't prepare a dowry for you." Liu Heng caught up with Liu Yu, disagreed with her approach, and gave her sincere advice.
Liu Yu felt that her uncle was really worried about her. She was a thoughtful person and was grateful to him. But she was still not ready to tell him that she wanted to cheat Qiu's dowry.
She smiled and shook her head:
"I know what Third Uncle said, but even if I don't give it to her, as long as these betrothal gifts are brought into the Pingnan Marquis's mansion and Qiu holds the key to the storehouse for one day, these things will all be hers."
