The mistress is mighty, bringing 88 dowries to flatten the Marquis's mansion

Before Chen Yuntang finished speaking, he noticed Xie Yuchun and fell silent instantly.

After a few moments, she coughed lightly and said, "Brother is here too."

Xie Yuchun glanced at her and asked casually, "Are you surprised that I'm here?"

Chen Yuntang's eyes flickered slightly: "It's really unexpected. After all, my brother was unconscious yesterday, but he suddenly woke up today. You are like this now, has your injury improved?"

"Ah."

As Xie Yuchun fell silent, the atmosphere in the room became more awkward.

Ruan Shuyan seemed not to see it and poured herself a cup of tea.

After a moment, Chen Yuntang broke the silence: "Sister-in-law, what happened before..."

"I have already arranged it. Once the herbs arrive, someone from North City will come to pick them up."

Chen Yuntang was stunned: "Bei, someone is coming from Beicheng? When did my sister-in-law get to know Beicheng?"

Ruan Shuyan glanced at her and said, "Two days ago, a group of people came to the outside of the mansion. They were all from the North City. Didn't you know?"

do not you know?

Those five short words were like a slap in the face to Chen Yuntang.

"I went back to Chen's house. I just came back yesterday."

Ruan Shuyan raised her eyebrows slightly: "I see, I thought you had let the matter go after coming here once, but don't worry, I will take care of it, you don't need to work hard."

If it was just a guess before, then Chen Yuntang's reaction today made Ruan Shuyan certain that there was indeed a problem between her and the Chen family.

North City, medicinal herbs...

Ruan Shuyan's eyes moved slightly, she seemed to understand what the Chen family wanted to do?

It’s a pity that they are too greedy. There is no good thing in this world that allows you to gain benefits without paying anything.

Chen Yuntang forced a smile, sat for a while, then stood up and said goodbye.

Ruan Shuyan glanced at Lai's mother, who immediately understood and followed her out.

At this time, Xie Yuchun said: "Why are you related to Beicheng?"

Ruan Shuyan did not answer but asked: "Is there a problem over there?"

Xie Yuchun said: "There are many disaster victims gathered there, and they are all violent. Even the imperial court can't do anything about them. It's too dangerous for you to get involved."

Ruan Shuyan smiled slightly: "It is a little dangerous, but compared with the benefits I can get, I can bear that little danger."

Hearing this, Xie Yuchun sighed: "Aren't you afraid of losing control?"

Ruan Shuyan looked at him steadily, and after a long moment, she said, "Like you? You almost lost your life?"

Xie Yuchun frowned: "You shouldn't compare me."

"Why not? My husband is special?"

Having said this, Xie Yuchun felt something was wrong.

"Ma'am, are you angry?"

He asked hesitantly, but got no answer.

Looking at the expressionless woman, Xie Yuchun suddenly realized that she was really angry.

"Madam, I can explain this matter. Beicheng is where the emperor wants to..."

"No need to say more, my husband."

Ruan Shuyan interrupted Xie Yuchun and said calmly, "I am a woman, you don't need to tell me in detail, I just hope that my husband will give me a heads up before doing anything, so that it will be convenient for me to collect the body."

Collect the bodies!!

The corner of Xie Yuchun's mouth twitched violently. He never expected Ruan Shuyan to say this.

"Ma'am, the idea of ​​collecting corpses is a bit too much."

Without waiting for Ruan Shuyan to speak, Xie Yuchun added: "Of course, I was wrong this time. Madam, please rest assured that there will never be such a thing again in the future."

The silence spread, and just when Xie Yuchun thought Ruan Shuyan would not say anything, she uttered four words.

"Better so."

Xie Yuchun raised the corner of his mouth and promised again: "There will never be a next time."

In this way, Ruan Shuyan proposed the rights of the housekeeper.

"I need to make some arrangements."

Xie Yuchun knew that the entire Xie family had conspired to conceal the news of his accident. When he heard this, he immediately understood what Ruan Shuyan meant.

"Just make the arrangements. If you have any questions, come to me."

"it is good."

Ruan Shuyan achieved her goal and no longer pursued the matter with Xie Yuchun.

That afternoon, she arranged a lot of people in various places in the Xie family.

When the news reached Mrs. Xie, she was very angry.

However, Xie Linlin was even more annoyed than her.

"This is outrageous. Throughout the entire capital, no one can be as reckless as the Xie family. Mother, I can't stand this any longer."

Old Madam Xie ignored Xie Linlin. She vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Seeing that she remained silent, Xie Linlin became anxious: "Mom, why don't you say anything? Are you just going to let her go like this? This is the Xie family, you..."

"Shut up!"

Madam Xie scolded subconsciously, but after she finished speaking, she reacted, coughed lightly, and said, "She refused the housekeeper's request before."

Xie Linlin pursed her lips and suppressed the discomfort in her heart: "Yes, she refused the housekeeper's thing."

"Since you have already refused, why are you making a move now?"

Old Madam Xie guided Xie Linlin to think further.

Soon, Xie Linlin understood: "It's because of my brother's matter. She didn't receive any news, so she was anxious."

Madam Xie showed satisfaction: "That's right."

Xie Linlin frowned: "But even so, what can she do?"

Madam Xie rubbed her fingertips and said, "You don't need her to do anything. Go and give her the housekeeper's key."

Xie Linlin's eyes lit up: "Mother means..."

Ruan Shuyan’s dowry!

She didn't say the second half of the sentence, but both of them knew it.

Madam Xie pointed to the door outside and said, "Do as you are told."

"it is good."

Xie Linlin responded excitedly, took the housekeeper's key and went to Ruan Shuyan's yard.

“Madam, I’m afraid it won’t be so easy for Madam to accept it?”

The old woman beside her asked in a low voice.

Madam Xie leaned back in her chair: "She won't refuse."

Ruan Shuyan is a smart person and will not accept a situation where she cannot get any information from the Xie family.

Other people’s families might be enthusiastic about the housekeeper’s rights, but she was not.

The Xie family’s warehouse was too empty, and it gave her a headache every month.

Now that Ruan Shuyan has brought so much dowry, if she can fill it up in the storehouse...

Thinking of that possibility, the corners of Mrs. Xie's mouth immediately raised.

...

"You said your mother asked you to bring this here?"

"Yeah, is there a problem?"

Ruan Shuyan looked at the key, then looked at Xie Linlin in front of her. She really didn't understand where she got the confidence to ask this question.

"I refused before."

"You also said it was before. Now you have another chance. Don't miss it."

Xie Linlin really wanted to put the key into Ruan Shuyan's hand, but she also knew that Ruan Shuyan would not buy it, so she could only suppress her excitement.

Ruan Shuyan picked up the key and played with it gently in her hand.

Xie Linlin's eyes fell on her face: "You..."

"Ok?"

"Nothing, I've already sent the things away, and the Xie family will give them to you in the future."

Xie Linlin threw down the words and ran as if she was being chased by a demon.

Ruan Shuyan smiled and said, "Mother Lai, send it to Chen Yuntang."
