Chapter 435 What's mine isn't yours
Looking at Xia Lan, her eyes were filled with shock: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"It's just that we can't get our dowry back."
“You were also in your postpartum period, and your health was unstable. I thought I could handle this kind of thing.”
"Your dowry is your own capital, the confidence your parents gave you, how can you just give it to them?"
Jiang Zhiyun thought that Xia Lan was really too silly.
Xia Lan sighed and said, "What happened? At first, Nan Heng promised me a dowry and also asked me to divorce him. But that day, he suddenly said he could give me the divorce papers, but I had to write a petition."
"I'll explain the situation later; I voluntarily left the certificate here so they could help me manage it."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiyun found it amusing: "Xia Lan, have you seen their true colors now? In essence, all of them are after your money."
"I know."
Xia Lan nodded: "It was only because Nan Heng brought a woman back that I suddenly realized what was going on. Otherwise, I could have kept deceiving myself before."
"Because I tell myself that those things are not a big deal at all."
As she said this, Xia Lan wiped away her tears: "It's nothing."
"Yunniang, you were so strong and saved me under such circumstances. I will never forget your kindness. And even if I really have no dowry in the future, you must still take me in!"
"I can do anything."
“That’s true.” Jiang Zhiyun looked at Xia Lan: “Xia Lan, there are some things I don’t know how to advise you on. But in my opinion, and based on my stance, you should take back what you deserve from beginning to end.”
"Your dowry is your foundation, your confidence. Giving it to them is no different from giving them money. Those people are disgusting; how could they possibly deserve your money?"
"I...I'll go ask again tomorrow about the divorce papers, and see if there's any roundabout way to handle it."
"Or, Yunniang, could you come with me?" Xia Lan asked somewhat nervously. "I know you've been resting lately and just had a baby, but I really want to know if you could come with me?"
"I will definitely do what I'm supposed to do and not cause you any trouble."
"No."
Jiang Zhiyun shook her head: "I'll go with you. But Xia Lan, I need to make this clear to you: the dowry is yours, and I won't have a say if necessary."
"You need to think this through carefully. You can't give them the money. And you can't compromise. If you compromise, there will be many more problems. You have to pay attention to everything around you at all times. Don't let small things cause you to lose big ones."
“Okay…” Xia Lan nodded, “But even if I take out all my dowry, can I ask you to help me manage it? I will still be working as a waitress at your Freshman Restaurant.”
“In the past, all the waiters were male waiters; there were never any female waiters. But I’ve noticed that our new restaurant doesn’t have that kind of tradition.”
“Yes, that’s how it is,” Jiang Zhiyun said. “When a woman gets her period, she’s always told it’s a dirty day, or something unclean.”
"Where is it dirty? Where is it unclean?"
Xia Lan listened to her words and felt that they made a lot of sense.
This time, Jiang Zhiyun didn't have a chance to take Xia Lan to the Marquis of Nan'an's residence to cause trouble.
People from the Marquis of Nan'an's residence came directly to their door.
Because the restaurant is usually crowded with all sorts of people, they are all sitting here eating, chatting, and talking about all sorts of private and secret things that others don't know about.
They were all having a great time chatting.
Jiang Zhiyun was still slicing braised meat. She had reached a level of skill where she sliced the meat along the grain, a skill that no one else could match.
Indeed, as long as you keep working hard, you can continue to move forward.
Xia Lan stood to the side, guessing what was going on, but dared not move, her hands trembling, yet she still tried her best to study diligently.
Just when I thought life was peaceful and quiet, like any other day, the Lady of the Marquis of Nan'an's mansion came over.
The Marquis of Nan'an and his family, along with many servants, all gathered around, forcing all of Jiang Zhiyun's guests to a corner.
Everyone was wondering whether they should leave.
Suddenly, the old lady of the Marquis of Nan'an's mansion came out, holding her cane, and stood up: "There are some things that are difficult to say. But I still want to make things clear."
"Everyone, please don't think that our Nan'an Marquis's Mansion is bullying us at this time. So we think that it's better to resolve this kind of thing when everyone is here."
"That way, we can keep things clear to each other."
"Is there some kind of relationship between Lady Jiang and Marquis Nan'an?"
"Didn't Madam Jiang say she was having a baby? She hasn't come for quite a while. She just arrived at the Marquis of Nan'an's residence and the Madam is already here?"
"It seems that Madam Jiang once hosted a banquet at the Marquis of Nan'an's residence; I heard the food was exceptionally delicious."
"..."
The surrounding area was buzzing with chatter, one sentence after another, everyone was curious, curious about what kind of friction would arise between Jiang Zhiyun and the Marquis of Nan'an's mansion.
Jiang Zhiyun put down the meat she was slicing for the braised dishes, gripped the knife handle, and stepped forward.
Step forward and stand on the platform.
He looked at the old lady of the Marquis of Nan'an: "What brings you here, Madam? Xinsheng Restaurant has always operated with integrity and has always done its job. We don't concern ourselves with anything else. If you have family matters to resolve, please settle them at home. If you wish to resolve them here, please pay."
"This is not a place where people can just come in and cause trouble, and where our guests can help judge the situation. This is a place for the government, not my Xinsheng Restaurant."
The old lady of the Nan'an Marquis's mansion looked at Jiang Zhiyun with disdain in her eyes.
She said with a smile, "That's quite interesting, Madam Jiang."
"I knew you had all sorts of ideas, and you always looked down on everyone. You only hosted a banquet at our Nan'an Marquis's residence, and I heard you're already acting like you're flying to the sky."
“Young people, sometimes it’s better to be more low-key. If you can’t do anything and can only be treated like a beast of burden, discarded like a dog, I think it’s better not to say anything.”
Jiang Zhiyun watched as the old woman launched into a lecture the moment they met.
“I have elders in my family who will educate me. As for you… Madam of Nan’an, how are you living your own life? Have you been careful with your own conduct? Have you managed the younger generation in your family properly? And yet you start pointing fingers at my Xinsheng Restaurant.”
"This is my restaurant, not yours. If you're not going to eat, please leave. If you're paying, you can talk for as long as you want."
"..."
