Father Yu is a man who knows how to make money and spend money. From the fact that he spends a lot of money on a daughter like Yu Xinlan who has just returned, just to make her daughter happy, we know that he is very willing to give up to his family.
This is true for my daughter, and it is true for my wife.
When I first got married to the Jiang family, they were barely a good match, but as a married daughter of the Jiang family, I didn’t actually get much dowry. However, after these years of business, the dowry has doubled.
Mrs. Jiang knew that she would not end well when she returned to her parents' home. It was even more foolish to think about remarrying someone like her father, and she was unwilling to leave at all.
But she was also afraid that she would not pack up the dowry and kick her out later. After all, it was a fact that she attacked her husband, and it was also a fact that the Yu family was almost extinct... With these things going on, if Yu's father withheld the dowry, she would
You can only admit defeat.
After Mrs. Jiang regained her composure, she ordered the people around her to go to the warehouse to tidy up, while she ran to the outer study making a fuss.
Even if you want to leave, you still have to try to see if you can stay.
In the study outside, Jiang Weimin also knew that he had done something stupid, and he kept making excuses and saying good things, but his father had already made up his mind.
"Needless to say, you go back and calculate the accounts for this month. Later we will discuss the ownership of the shop. If you want to continue doing business, just pay the share that belongs to the government."
He didn't have to deal with the goods indiscriminately, nor did he have to sell the shop at a low price. He was still willing to let the Jiang family continue to do business. Yu's father was really a very kind person.
Jiang Weimin sighed again in his heart. If possible, he would also like to keep those businesses. But the Jiang family has more than 20 people under the master, plus the servants who serve, there are more than 100 people. It is difficult to support such a person.
A large family would cost a lot of money, and he was not that good at collecting money. Now he couldn't afford the money to buy his share of the Yu family.
Even if the valuable items in the warehouse are exchanged, it is not enough.
"Brother-in-law, if you have something to say, please don't be impulsive. My sister did something wrong. I will tell her later and I will ask her to apologize to you." Seeing that the cheap brother-in-law was not willing to listen to these words, Jiang Weimin gritted his teeth and said again
Retreat: "Actually, my sister is right in some of her thoughts. It is really inappropriate for you to hand over such a big business to a concubine born by a maid. Speaking of which, you are only in your forties this year... There are no men of your age who have given birth to children.
All of them. Well, I have a cousin in my family who is fourteen this year. She is beautiful and has a good temperament. If you are willing, I will send her to you to be your concubine and raise your heirs... Treat her as the Jiang family.
I’ll compensate you.”
As soon as Mrs. Jiang stepped onto the steps, she heard her brother's words and was immediately furious. If she had been willing to let a man get close to other women, and if she had been willing to let a man give birth to a bastard, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
Of course, her son is gone, and the Jiang family does need an heir... But she has to raise this matter herself, and she has to choose someone by herself. It is not someone else who can appoint someone and she is not allowed to refuse.
"elder brother!"
Jiang's voice was full of grief and anger.
When Jiang Weimin saw his sister, he was also filled with hatred for the inability of iron to become steel, and said: "This matter is settled, don't say anything more!"
His eyes were stern and full of threats.
Ms. Jiang knew in her heart that since her husband's family could no longer be relied upon, she had no choice but to return to her parents' home. She must not offend her brother at this moment.
She was filled with grief and anger, but she also knew that it would be good for her if her father was willing to accept her so-called cousin. At least, the two families would still be related by marriage, and she would still be Mrs. Yu.
Yu's father saw the brother and sister's eyebrow-raising lawsuit in his eyes and said sarcastically: "There are so many women in the world. I have my own eyes and know how to find them. To be honest, I don't believe in your Jiang family's vision. I can't even raise a girl of my own."
Well, what’s more, I’m still a cousin. If there’s another family troublemaker, my old life can’t stand the torment.” He waved his hand: “You two, please come back.”
Seeing that Mrs. Jiang was still entangled, Father Yu narrowed his eyes: "The dowry list when you got married is recorded in the Yamen. Later I will ask the steward to copy it and then help your people sort it out."
Don't even think about taking away the extra ones.
Jiang's complexion changed drastically.
Those things she saved later were the good things. Listening to what she said, the man originally didn't intend to care about it, but now he won't let her take the extra things.
"My dowry is locked in the warehouse..."
Father Yu interrupted her and said, "You have been unvirtuous as a wife and unloving mother over the years since you were married, and you have left me an heir. Even if I deduct your dowry as compensation, it makes sense."
Mrs. Jiang: "..."
She didn't dare to stop for a moment and said hurriedly: "Let your people help sort it out. I will only take away the dowry I brought back then."
If you go on, you won't even be able to keep your own share. If you really fall into that situation, how will you live your life without money when you return to your parents' home?
"Hurry up, you two!"
On the same day, the brother and sister left the Yu Mansion with more than a dozen carriages.
After Mrs. Jiang left, the house became quieter. When Chu Yunli was about to go to bed at night, he heard that the lights in the outer study were still on, so he asked the people below to prepare some food, warmed a pot of wine, and delivered it to him personally.
In the study room.
"Dad, my daughter is here to drink with you."
The husband and wife who have been together for so many years are suddenly separated, which is uncomfortable for everyone. Today, Mrs. Jiang does not dare to defend herself. What else does Father Yu not understand?
The spices he was looking forward to earlier were someone deliberately using Jiang to ruin his body, but in fact they were just his extravagant hopes.
Without even mentioning it, Ms. Jiang had proven that she was the one who did it.
"She was pretty and sensible back then, but I don't know how she became like this." Yu's father wiped his face. He lost his son in middle age, and now he is betrayed by his wife. Thinking about it makes him sad, his energy drops, and his whole body
