Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

"Of course we need to order it. Madam, please open the storeroom."

Jin suddenly clenched Madam Liu's hand and said through gritted teeth, "You're really not going to accept my toast! Madam Liu, open the storeroom for me!"

Madam Liu's wrist was pinched so hard that it hurt.

I managed to squeeze out a "yes".

When the warehouse door was opened, there were many objects piled up in a disorderly manner inside. Some of them looked gorgeous but were actually worthless.

Shen Muxue found that the warehouse was full of things that looked good but were useless.

Adding them together, they are not even worth one thousand taels of silver.

Jin leaned against the door, a gloating smile on her lips: "Everything in the house is here. As for your mother's dowry, it's in the two rows against the wall at the back. Once you've counted them, move them out."

The items at the back are even more shabby. I estimate that they are only worth three hundred taels of silver at most?

Back then, when my mother got married, it was an unprecedented grand occasion. The red makeup that stretched for ten miles, the phoenix coronet and the bridal robe, every piece of it was priceless. Who could I fool with such a small thing?

Shen Muxue's face darkened: "I'm afraid Madam is mistaken. These things are far from enough."

Jin pretended to be confused: "How can it not be enough? The back door of the warehouse is always locked after the things are put in. Could it be that there are some thieves hiding in the dark?"

"I think Madam knows best who this gentleman on the beam is."

"What do you mean? Although I manage the household, I don't have your mother's dowry list. How would I know how much your mother's dowry was?"

Jin was determined to get rid of the blame completely.

She was sure that Shen Muxue could not do anything to her, so she was so unscrupulous.

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Who said our young lady doesn't have the lady's dowry list?"

Everyone turned to look.

An Lan came over with an older woman.

When the old woman saw Shen Muxue, she burst into tears and knelt down in front of Shen Muxue. "You must be the young lady's daughter. I am the nanny who followed the young lady into the prime minister's residence. Since the young lady left, I have been driven back to our general's residence. This old servant has always been concerned about the young lady's safety, but Prime Minister Shen does not allow anyone in the general's residence to have any contact with the young lady. The old general was afraid that Prime Minister Shen would blame the young lady, so he had to suppress his grief and cut off all contact with the Shen family. Young lady, please accept this old servant's greeting!"

Shen Muxue quickly helped her up and said, "Get up, let the past be the past. But my mother's dowry can't be given away to others like this.

Mammy just said that the dowry list is still with you, right?"

"Yes." The nanny took out a slightly yellowed piece of paper, slowly unfolded it, and said to Shen Muxue.

"The young lady's dowry was originally meant for you. I was worried that someone else might take it, so I secretly took the dowry list with me when I left. I thought it might be useful to you in the future. I didn't expect it to come in handy today."

Shen Muxue looked at the countless items on the list and then turned her gaze to Jin: "My mother's dowry is stored in the warehouse and is under your personal custody. Whether it is lost or stolen, it is your responsibility, Madam. If even one item is missing, I will ask you for an explanation."

The old woman could read and write, so she picked up the list and began to check it one by one.

As a result, it was less than a quarter of what was on the list.

At this time, Jin's face had turned ashen.

She was thinking about how to shirk responsibility.

Shen Muxue mercilessly threw out her trump card: "If you can't hand it over, I will have to report it to the authorities. If it is really the servants in the mansion who are handicapped, then it is their own fault. If it is found that someone stole it while supervising the master, I am afraid they will be imprisoned again."

When Jin thought of the suffering in prison, she turned pale with fear.

"Good Xue'er, this is a family matter, why make such a fuss? How about this, I'll investigate first and will definitely find all the items and explain it to you. Do you think this will be okay?"

Shen Muxue raised three fingers.

"I'll give you three days."

Why does this scene look so familiar?

Nanny Liu thought of the warehouse that had been looted before, and she couldn't help but shudder.

Shen Muxue asked the nanny to stay and asked some questions about her mother's life.

The old woman told everything she knew.

Talking about marrying into the prime minister's mansion, she sighed helplessly.

"This is all destined. The young lady has never liked Prime Minister Shen. Given her status, she should have..."

It seemed as if he was thinking of something that was too painful to recall.

The old woman immediately stopped talking, patted her head, and changed the subject: "Oh, I almost forgot just now. This is a relic that the young lady left for you. I was afraid of losing it, so I took it away for safekeeping. Now, it's time to return it to its original owner."

It was a delicate little box.

Shen Muxue opened it and saw only a waist pendant inside.

This waist pendant is cast in the shape of a tiger head.

It is powerful and domineering, and looks like a man's accessory.

"Please put it on, young lady. This was her favorite thing before she died. If you can carry it with you, I think her spirit in heaven will be comforted."

Looking closely, this waist pendant does have a unique flavor.

Shen Muxue tied the thing around her waist.

She lowered her head and fiddled with the object in her hand, not noticing the excited tears flashing in the old woman's eyes.

There seemed to be an unfulfilled wish hidden in that look.

It also seemed like endless comfort.

It's really intriguing.

Three days later.

Nanny Liu brought all the dowry items to Shen Muxue for verification, but Jin didn't even show up.

He must have been so angry that he couldn't get out of bed.

Without saying a word, Shen Muxue exchanged all the dowry for silver and asked someone to buy land, shops and houses.

After all, if the dowry is piled there, it will easily attract thieves.

Might as well change it to something tangible.

After leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, I had someone to rely on for my livelihood.

Half a month had passed before everything was arranged.

This is also the day when the senior monks of the national temple hold a Dharma assembly for his mother.

Shen Muxue changed into a simple dress, then sat in the carriage and closed her eyes to rest.

Suddenly, a dark shadow rushed into the carriage.

A hand grabbed Shen Muxue's throat: "Don't make a sound."

The faint fragrance of osmanthus filled the air. Shen Muxue opened her eyes and had some guesses about the man in black.

Then, Qingyi's voice came from outside: "Stop the car!"

The carriage came to an abrupt stop.

The driver asked, "Miss Qingyi, why are you here?"

......

inside the carriage.

Shen Muxue looked at the murderous man in black.

Suddenly he pointed under the seat and said with difficulty, "You can exit from here."

The man in black lifted the seat with half doubt and half belief.

The space under the seat was empty, perfect for leaving the carriage unnoticed.

The man in black was quite surprised.

Since he had the chance to escape, he naturally would not show mercy.

"Thank you for your help, Miss. In order not to reveal your whereabouts, please go ahead."

The man in black was about to take action, but unexpectedly Shen Muxue took out a strange little bottle and sprayed it into the man in black's eyes.

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts so much..."

The man in black seemed to be blinded by chili oil and struggled painfully to open his eyes.
