Chapter 192: If you want money, you have to put forward some conditions
"Hey……"
Du Sanniang, with cloudy eyes, reached out her trembling hands to wipe away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes, then sighed heavily and said to Nanny Sun who had been standing at the end of the bed, "Nanny Sun, go get my token."
"Yes, ma'am..."
Knowing what her master Du Sanniang meant, Nanny Sun opened her mouth to give her some more advice, but after seeing the young master Tong Wenjie's face full of hope, she chose to keep silent.
Without saying anything, Nanny Sun went back to the inner room and pulled out an old dark blue cotton-padded jacket. There were still some dark brown stains on the jacket that were from years and it was hard to tell what they were.
Nanny Sun held the old cotton-padded jacket, took out a pair of sharp scissors, untied the edge of the jacket, then reached into the jacket and took out an exquisite half jade pendant.
This half piece of jade pendant was obviously made intentionally. The cut was not neat, but there were no signs of breakage.
Nanny Sun took the half jade pendant and handed it to Du Sanniang who was still half leaning on the bed.
"lady……"
She raised her eyelids slightly and confirmed the half jade pendant in Nanny Sun's hand. Du Sanniang reached out her hand tremblingly, grabbed the half jade pendant, and rubbed it in the palm of her hand.
"This is my lifeblood. Without it, I don't think I would survive in the Yue Mansion for many more days. I haven't seen my son marry and have children, and I haven't seen my son inherit the Yue Mansion.
Forget it. With my shabby body, I’ll be a burden to my son even if I’m alive.
There is nothing to be reluctant about..."
After talking to herself for a few sentences, Du Sanniang made up her mind again and again. Finally, she looked at the half jade pendant in her hand reluctantly, and then handed it to Tong Wenjie.
Tong Wenjie seemed to understand something, and reached out to take the heavy half of the jade pendant with a mixture of sadness and joy. Unexpectedly, when his fingers just touched the jade pendant, Du Sanniang suddenly retracted her hand.
"mother……"
Fearing that his mother Du Sanniang would go back on her word, Tong Wenjie called out "Mom" hesitantly.
Du Sanniang pulled the corner of her mouth slightly and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you the things, but I have conditions.
Wenjie, you are an honest boy, and you can't beat that vixen Li Yue'er. Even if I give you my things today, you can't protect them at all.
The title of Duke Yue's Mansion has nothing to do with her, and Li Yue'er might cause trouble.
As a mother, I am worried about you, and I don’t trust your father who is so worried about you.
As for me, I now believe the evidence in black and white.
Wenjie, go and tell your father that if he wants to take my dowry, he should ask Tong Guoan to invite the Minister of Revenue Li Lianggong and the Minister of the Supreme Court Meng Qisui to be witnesses.
This money can only be used to repay the debt owed by Duke Yue's Mansion to the national treasury and must not be used for other purposes.
I will return the money directly to the Minister of Revenue Li Lianggong and the Minister of the Supreme Court Meng Qisui in front of them.
Even if I throw all my dowry into the water, I will never let that vixen Li Yue'er get away with it."
"mother……"
Tong Wenjie called out "Mom" helplessly, but he didn't dare to persuade him anymore. After all, it was already very precious that his mother Du Sanniang was willing to take out the money.
"Go, tell your father that I will never take this money from my dowry if he doesn't agree to my request."
Du Sanniang reached out and slapped the bed board hard. Her face flushed and she felt like she couldn't breathe again.
