After rebirth, the wife of the Houfu shark went crazy
Chapter 86 You really dare to speak
Xu Rui knew she was angry, but he was very displeased by Xu Rong's criticism. "Weren't you the one who had an affair with him first? You are blaming me now."
Xu Rong glanced at him and said calmly, "I don't want to talk about the past and the future anymore. You want my Zhou Lai, right? I agree, but I have one condition."
"explain."
"Give me Jiang Xiyu's dowry."
Xu Rui was amused by Xu Rong's self-righteous attitude and asked in disbelief, "You said you want her dowry?"
Xu Rong raised her chin high, "Yes, and it's the entire dowry."
In response to her shamelessness, Xu Rui poured himself a cup of tea, with contempt in his eyes as he lowered his head.
"If you want her dowry, go find her. What's the point of coming to me?"
Xu Rong listened to his perfunctory words and immediately became angry. "You are the head of the Marquis's family, and you are also her husband. As long as you make the decision for me, her things will be mine. Why should I look for her?"
Xu Rui raised his eyes and stared at Xu Rong.
"You said she is my wife, why should I help you take her dowry?"
Xu Rong was stunned by Xu Rui's words. It took her a while to come back to her senses. "I am willing to marry into the Zhou family. Shouldn't you give me some compensation?"
Xu Rui took a sip of tea, placed it on the table, and said lightly, "If you want a dowry, I can prepare it for you, but if you want her dowry, I can't do it for you."
Xu Rong showed disdain on her face and sneered, "You've been back for so long. Don't you know better than anyone how much assets our Yonglin Marquis Mansion has? Is it the mansion that can give me a ten-mile red dowry, or is it you, Xu Rui, who can give me a ten-mile red dowry?"
Everyone in the Yonglin Marquisate knows that the current Yonglin Marquisate has long been an empty shell. If Jiang Xiyu had not used her dowry to fill the holes in the mansion, Marquis Li Na would have been able to maintain her current extravagant life.
If Jiang Xiyu's dowry was not used, with the money of the Marquis' Mansion, what kind of decent dowry could be prepared for her? Even Zheng's dowry had filled up the Marquis' Mansion, and there was nothing left to give her.
Therefore, if she wanted to marry in style, she had to get Jiang Xiyu's dowry.
"Ten miles of red makeup?" Xu Rui was amused by Xu Rong's ambition. "How dare you ask for it? What virtue or ability do you, Xu Rong, have to dare to ask for ten miles of red makeup?"
Xu Rui's disdainful ridicule also made Xu Rong furious. She screamed at the top of her lungs, "Jiang Xiyu can have a wedding that lasts ten miles, but why can't I, Xu Rong? How am I any worse than her?"
How was she inferior to Jiang Xiyu? Xu Rui didn't want to comment. "Jiang Xiyu's dowry was prepared by her father. You can ask your parents to prepare it for you. I am just your brother. I can't give you the ten-mile red dowry you want."
Xu Rong didn't expect Xu Rui to even bring up his deceased father. Her eyes immediately turned red with anger. "Father is gone now. As the eldest brother is like a father, it's your responsibility to prepare my dowry. I am your responsibility that cannot be shirked."
"I'm not trying to shirk responsibility. I said I would prepare a dowry for you, but it's impossible for you to have a ten-mile red wedding dress, and it's also impossible for you to have your sister-in-law's dowry."
"Xu Rui." Xu Rong screamed again in anger, "Just get it straight. I'm your biological sister. We're related by blood. Jiang Xiyu is just an outsider."
She really didn't understand why he would hurt her again and again just for Jiang Xiyu.
Is an outsider more important than your own sister?
Xu Rui's eyes darkened slightly as he looked at Xu Rong solemnly, "She is my wife. Perhaps to you, she is an outsider in the Yonglin Marquisate, but to me, she is an insider, the person closest to me, the one who will accompany me for the rest of my life. Anyone else may be an outsider to me, but she will never be an outsider."
Xu Rui's extremely protective words made Xu Rong tremble with anger.
She never thought that Xu Rui would protect Jiang Xiyu like this.
What kind of love potion did Jiang Xiyu give Xu Rui? Before Xu Rui went on the expedition, he never paid so much attention to Jiang Xiyu.
Now that he has faked his death and returned to Beijing, why does he treat Jiang Xiyu as a treasure?
He and Jiang Xiyu haven't even consummated their marriage yet, but he's already so partial to Jiang Xiyu. If Jiang Xiyu gives birth to a child for him in the future, he'll have to put Jiang Xiyu first in everything.
Thinking of that woman Jiang Xiyu who had put her in such a situation, Xu Rong felt extremely unwilling to accept it.
No, she couldn't let Jiang Xiyu go so easily.
Knowing that it was useless for her to say anything more, Xu Rong stopped talking to Xu Rui and turned away.
She could no longer rely on Xu Rui, so she had to find a way to get Jiang Xiyu's dowry on her own.
Deji, who was standing at the door, saw Xu Rong coming out and went forward to greet her, somewhat confused. However, Xu Rong pushed him and made him stumble. "Get out of here."
Xu Rui looked at Xu Rong's furious back, feeling a little dazed.
He didn't expect that he could say such words. When did Jiang Xiyu become so important in his heart?
Actually, this doesn't seem bad, but there are too many thorns in his future. Does he have to drag her into this thorny road?
Xu Rui was a little confused.
Deji saw that Xu Rong had gone far away, so he walked into the house. Seeing Xu Rui in a daze, he stepped forward and asked, "My Lord, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Rui came back to his senses and looked at Deji with a frown, "Where is the Madam?"
"It should be in Jingyu Garden." Deji said inexplicably.
Why did Xu Rui suddenly care about Jiang Xiyu's whereabouts?
Xu Rui didn't answer him and walked out of the room directly, and Deji followed him.
**
Jingyu Garden.
Qing'er took the list of gifts for the makeup and said hesitantly, "Madam, are you really not going to give Miss Fifth a little makeup?"
In her heart, she wished she could not give it, but Jiang Xiyu was the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion and the eldest sister-in-law. If she really gave nothing, she was afraid that Jiang Xiyu would have a hard time in the Marquis' Mansion in the future. After all, Zheng would definitely make things difficult for her, and Xu Rui's attitude was still unclear, but he should have, after all, she was his biological sister.
"She doesn't want these little things. Since she doesn't want them, we'll keep them." Jiang Xiyu sneered.
Qing'er was a little confused. She stared at the gift list for several seconds and mumbled, "These are all gifts from His Majesty. They are all very precious and not bad items. Why would Fifth Miss not like them? But, if she doesn't like them, then forget it."
At the end, Qing'er angrily put away the gift list.
When she turned around to put the things she had picked out and put them back, she saw Xu Rui standing at the door. She didn't know when he had appeared, and she didn't know if he had heard what she had just said. She saluted nervously and guiltily, "My Lord, My Lord."
I couldn't help but complain.
Her life is so miserable. Every time she says something bad about someone, Xu Rui appears.
Jiang Xiyu glanced at Xu Rui and bowed to him.
Xu Rui didn't care and went straight into the house. Seeing several red boxes in the house, he knew what was going on.
Xu Rui raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Xiyu. "There's a new teahouse opened on East Street. They've invited the most powerful master in Kyoto to be the manager. Do you want to go and taste the tea?"
