Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1049

Shi Anxia naturally knew what happened in front of Li's house, and the people he sent out had returned early to report everything clearly.

But there are ways to win people over. For example, if you let Zeng's mother explain it in detail from her perspective, she will feel that she is being valued and feel comfortable, which is happier than getting money.

After taking a sip of tea, Mother Zeng began to vividly describe how Dongxi entered the Li Mansion.

But her face was ruddy, her voice was hoarse, her eyes were shining, and at first glance she looked excited because she had done a good job.

Especially seeing that Shi Anxia was listening very seriously, Zeng's mother was even more excited, "Madam, didn't you see that when the old master of the Li family heard that someone was saying that his family was going to rebel, his face was as ugly as the stone slab in the toilet."

Hong Que couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Beihui and Mother Wang also laughed.

Zheng Qiaoer pointed at Zeng's mother with an indulgent look on her face, "What a mouth you have!"

Shi Anxia covered her face with a handkerchief, her eyebrows curved and eyes showed that she was very happy, "What happened next?"

Of course she knew "later", but wasn't this just passing on the message?

Zeng Mama liked such a master who liked to please her. "Later, Mr. Li Si came back and saw that Dong Xi was unhappy. He wanted to scold her. But his old master sent someone to call him in. There was a long discussion inside. When he came out, Mr. Li Si changed his mind and said that Dong Xi was a girl he had liked for a long time."

Mother Wang curled her lips, "Who would believe this?"

Zeng's mother nodded, "No one believed it at the time. It was the old man of the Li family who came out to clarify, saying that his great-grandson had been trying to marry this girl a long time ago, and it was because the Li family felt that they were not a good match, so they committed this evil. Now the rice has been cooked, and it was not to pry into any secrets... It just admitted the matter."

Shi Anxia smiled as she drank her tea, only to find that the tea had already tasted weak. "The old master is quite smart and knows how to judge the situation. No matter how many people are willing to believe it, at least when the emperor asks, he can answer with confidence."

"That's not all," Zeng Mama happily took out a silver note from her bosom and handed it to Shi Anxia, ​​"The old master said that the gap between the two families is too big, so there's no need to hold a banquet, and just carry the big red wedding sedan into the Li Mansion through the side door to be a concubine. I didn't want to do that at the time, and insisted on entering through the main gate of the Li family. The old master gave me these five hundred taels of silver, and I finally agreed."

To put it bluntly, these five hundred taels of silver were hush money. After all, the silver had to go to Shi Anxia.

Because Dongxi's indenture is in Shi Anxia's hands.

Shi Anxia stuffed the banknote back into Zeng's mother's hand, "As for this money, you old Zeng family can keep it. You can keep it for yourself, or give some to her parents, it's up to you, I don't care."

She gave Bei Hui a wink again, and Bei Hui handed Dong Xi's birth certificate to Zeng's mother.

"This?" Mother Zeng held the silver note in one hand and the deed in the other, not knowing what to do.

Her niece was the first to betray her master! She had originally thought, how great would it be if the five hundred taels fell into her hands?

But now that she really fell into his hands, she hated her niece for being so short-sighted. What a good master in front of her.

Shi Anxia said, "Today, for the sake of Zeng Mama, I will settle the matter of Dongxi with me, and no one is allowed to mention it in the future. As for whether Dongxi lives or dies in the Li family, I will no longer ask, it all depends on her luck. You can take the indenture, keeping it here will only cause more trouble. As for the silver... Zeng Mama, you can distribute it yourself, I will not ask."

Zeng's mother said sincerely, "Mrs. Xie is very generous. I will send this money back to her parents, as a token of my support for her. As for her..."

In fact, everyone present knew that Dongxi would not have a good ending. Perhaps Dongxi himself was the only one who was still looking forward to his future life as a master.
