The First Phoenix

Aunt Zhong took a list in her hand and hurriedly saluted the astonished Aunt Wen, "Aunt Wen, I'm here to collect my wife's dowry."

As he spoke, he pointed to the water-drop pearl bead curtain on the door and told the boy, "Take it off, be careful not to damage it."

Then he pointed at the luminous pearls on the four corners of the gauze tent and shouted, "Take it down!"

Then there is the bronze fumigation cage with gold lines, "Take it away!"

Huanghuali’s screen with pictures of ladies, “Take it away!”

The open-carved red sandalwood couch for the imperial concubine, "Take it away!"

White jade flower vase, mahogany mirror stand, hexagonal seven-color dowry, blue and white embroidered pier with peacock and peony patterns, golden crane couple's lamp, bronze lotus lamp...

Aunt Zhong's angry voice was heard throughout the yard, "Take it away! Take it away! Take them all away!"

Aunt Wen was so angry that she couldn't say anything.

Because everything is indeed Tang's dowry.

Earlier, in the name of the old lady, she borrowed the same thing from the east and the same thing from the west. She only borrowed but did not pay back, and they all went into her Rose Garden.

Those things were clearly written on the Tang family's dowry list, and the large items were marked by the Duke Protector's Office.

She thought that Lai had no choice but to watch them all move away.

What hurts Aunt Wen now is not her butt, but her face!

The way these servants looked at her changed, as if they were mocking her for looking so poor and daring to take the wife's dowry.

After Nanny Zhong and her group looted everything, the last person to come on stage was Nanny Xing.

She stepped forward and gave a perfunctory salute, "Aunt Wen, the accounts have been calculated. You should make up for the master's one thousand one hundred and fifty-six taels of silver!"

Aunt Wen screamed, grabbed the cup at hand and threw it, "No! No! Not at all!"

Mother Xing hadn't expected Aunt Wen to be so aggressive even at this point. She had also experienced countless storms and wasn't fazed by such a small incident.

The cup flew past her ears. She took out the handkerchief and wiped her forehead and ears. "The account book has been reviewed by the old lady. If Aunt Wen has any questions, she can ask the old lady herself."

"Get out! Get out! Get out!" Aunt Wen was hysterical.

Mother Xing continued calmly, "Auntie Wen, the old lady said that if you don't make up the difference to the public treasury, she will directly destroy your private treasury to settle the account."

"Smash it! Try smashing one!" Aunt Wen wanted to eat Mother Xing's heart.

Mother Xing bowed again and really walked out, "Yes!"

Behind her were a group of servants and servants, heading toward the warehouse.

Aunt Wen has been married into the Hou family for more than ten years. Because of her relationship with the old lady, her appearance and status are inferior to those of the first lady, or even worse. Have you ever been so humiliated?

She knew very well that Mrs. Shi, an old snob who couldn't wait to settle the accounts, was nothing more than expressing her position to the Tang mother and daughter.

At the same time, because of the series of troubles and crises caused by the exchange of children, Mrs. Shi expressed her dissatisfaction to her by settling the accounts.

The more Aunt Wen thought about it, the angrier she became. She suddenly screamed and fainted.

Mother Liu hurriedly ran out to ask for Dr. Shen. Unexpectedly, Dr. Shen went to Haitang Hospital to treat Shi Yunqi's illness.

Mother Liu went to Haitang Courtyard again. Several unfamiliar girls were guarding the door to prevent her from entering.

For a moment, anger arose in my heart. I thought it was the time when I was once more prosperous. I pointed at those girls and started scolding them, "You little bastards, you are delaying things. Can you afford it?"

Several girls were chirping, "Who are you calling me a cheap hoof! You are such an unreasonable mother! If you have nothing to do, you come to our Haitang Courtyard to yell. Who gave you the courage!"

"Yes, he is still an old man! So unruly! I didn't know, I thought it was some master who came!"

"A real master would not be as domineering as her!"

"Besides, what can we delay? All the masters are in the house. Let's go, let's go and cool down." Several girls drove Mother Liu away in shock.

Mother Liu has never been angry like this since she followed Aunt Wen into the house. It was only a few yellow-haired girls who made her angry.

Normally, this would have been impossible. But when you think about what happened to Aunt Wen today, there's nothing you can't think of.

Mother Liu had no choice but to go out to see a doctor. At the door, she met Master Shi Chengxuan who had just returned home.

She was overjoyed and said, "Master, it would be great if you came back!"

Shi Chengxuan didn't remember who this person was for a moment, and frowned, "Which hospital is he serving?"

"Back to the master, this slave is serving Aunt Wen in the Rose Garden." After Liu's mother introduced herself, she quickly said, "Aunt Wen was hit hard. Her body and bones have not recovered yet, and she was..."

It was snowing and freezing outside. How could Shi Chengxuan have the time to stand under the eaves and chat with an old slave, "Okay, you didn't learn your lesson after being punished, and you got into trouble with the government again! Wen Huiyi is fine, you really don't mind it." The face of our Marquis! Hmph!"

Throw your sleeves and leave!

Mother Liu wanted to ask him to let Doctor Shen take a look. Before Aunt Wen could say anything, she saw the master disappear in a blink of an eye, so she had to go out to ask for the doctor.

In Qiangwei Courtyard, the family is surrounded by bare walls, and depression and vicissitudes of life are everywhere.

Aunt Wen was so angry that she fainted. When Youyou woke up, she saw Anrou standing by the bedside when she saw her daughter.

Shi Anrou stepped forward with a smile, "Aunt, you're finally awake. I scared you to death."

Aunt Wen was angry, "I can't die yet!"

Turning his eyes, he noticed that the luminous pearls on the four corners of the gauze above his head were no longer there. He immediately remembered the anger he had suffered in the afternoon, and felt that a mouthful of blood was about to spurt out again.

Shi Anrou could stay here so obediently waiting for her mother to wake up, so naturally something happened, and it was a big deal.

She comforted him, "Auntie, if Tang's dowry is gone, it's gone. I will earn it for you in the future. By then, it won't matter how many night-shining pearls you want to adorn this gauze curtain."

Aunt Wen snorted coldly, "Why? How can you brag just by touching your lips?"

She was so angry just thinking about it that she slapped her daughter on the arm with hatred, "I asked you to go find His Highness Prince Jin to save me, why didn't you go?"

Shi Anrou dodged for a moment but was slapped hard, "Mom, I told you that I don't know His Highness Prince Jin, how can I find him?"

I hate that iron cannot become steel! Aunt Wen gritted her teeth, "You don't even need such a good opportunity before you!"

He poked his daughter on the forehead with his finger, "Why are you unfamiliar, huh? Didn't he send you back home? Shouldn't you go and thank him? Your mother was arrested and sent to the government. To him, it was just a slap in the face. It's about greeting. Why don't you ask him for help? After helping you, can't you just take advantage of the situation and commit yourself to him for life? Do you think you are stupid? "

"Auntie!" Shi Anrou's face flushed. "I won't discuss the affairs of His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin with you right now. I think making money is the most important thing. Only with money can I be strong. Don't you agree?"

As soon as Aunt Wen heard this, she remembered the humiliation in the afternoon. She narrowed her eyes and looked at her, "Can you get money?"

Shi Anrou nodded seriously, "Yes! In my dream, Emperor Rongguang spent a million taels of silver to build the Wenhua Palace. Auntie, do you know why they built that Wenhua Palace?"

"Don't show off!" Aunt Wen was so excited that her butt didn't hurt that much anymore.

Shi Anrou lowered her voice mysteriously, "Because there are hot springs on Yanhang Mountain..."
