Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Chu's expression softened a lot.
Wanting to take back all her mother's property is really not a small thing! Just as Chu Qingyi thought, her mother's property has increased in value over the years. If she really wanted to calculate it, I'm afraid it would be
Even if it takes half a year, the liquidation may not be clear. Moreover, these properties have become the backbone of the Prime Minister's Mansion's property. If Chu Qingyi really took them back, the Prime Minister's Mansion would be in ruins!
"You are old, and it is indeed a reasonable request to get your mother's dowry back." Chu Xiang nodded. Although he felt sorry for the money, compared with the entire Wen family's property, this dowry is really nothing.
What's more, today's matter must be settled. Chu Qingyi and Yun Moxuan have a long-standing engagement, which is something that all the wealthy families in the capital know. They want to take advantage of Chu Qingcheng's fall into the water today to marry Chu Qingcheng into the palace.
If it is handled well, it will be a good story; if it is not handled well, it will be a scandal. Prime Minister Chu understands this very well.
In today's court, if his family is not the only one, that damn regent Yun Mochen keeps an eye on him all the time! He doesn't want to leave any trouble for Yun Mochen because of the family affairs!
Mrs. Chu's face was very ugly. As a step-mother, she certainly knew how luxurious the dowry left by her predecessor Wen was. Many of the items in it had been secretly taken to her parents' house or sold off.
.If it was really checked, wouldn’t she have to pay for it out of her own pocket? Who knows how much she has taken over the years?
"Sir, my sister has been away for so many years, so I really can't calculate the dowry clearly." Mrs. Chu pretended to be embarrassed and said. "Otherwise, when the second girl gets married, we can just add more dowry."
"What mother said is so funny, how come you can't figure it out clearly?" Chu Qingyi knew that her biological mother's dowry had been swallowed up by this Mrs. Chu, and her heart suddenly burned with anger. In her previous life, she was docile and never asked about these things.
Because Mrs. Chu always told her that she was the lady of the prime minister's house, so she had a noble and noble status, so she shouldn't let these idiots harm her temperament! Now that she thinks about her previous life, she was really stupid. All the money her mother left to her was...
It went into the pockets of the mother and daughter in front of her. Later, she fell ill in the palace and wanted to grab some medicine, but she had to look at Chu Qingcheng's face... her life was so frustrating!
However, Chu Qingyi still pinched herself secretly to hold back her anger. Now was not the time to fall out with the mother and daughter. Her purpose today was to ask for money and break off the engagement!
"I have the dowry list left by my mother in my hand. I only need to take it out and check it with the account book at home to know how much dowry my mother left me. You just said that I am about to get married, and this dowry is
The confidence I gained after going to my husband's house, father, you won't let me not even understand my mother's dowry when I get married, you can't understand it." Chu Qingyi softened her voice and looked at her eagerly.
Father.
Prime Minister Chu cares about face the most. Now that Yun Moxuan is still sitting here, he must not let this kind of thing reach Yun Moxuan's ears, so Chu Qingyi has caught Prime Minister Chu's weakness!
"What's unclear about the calculation? Since there is a dowry list, naturally it counts as much as you have!" Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Chu said to Mrs. Chu, "Just go back and give her all the things. As for whether to add more dowry or not,
It’s up to you to figure it out!”
"Thank you, father!" When Chu Qingyi heard this, she quickly stood up and saluted without waiting for Mrs. Chu to say anything else. When she said this, the matter was settled, and Mrs. Chu had no room to refute.
Prime Minister Chu waved his hand, "This is just a small matter. It should be yours, so it's not worth mentioning!" Yun Moxuan sat here, and he must keep this face.
When Mrs. Chu heard this, she immediately rolled her eyes and almost couldn't breathe!
Does Mr. Chu really not know how much dowry his ex-wife left? Just give it to him!
It’s a small thing!
"Thank you, mother." After Chu Qingyi saluted Mr. Chu, she also saluted Madam Chu. This salute pierced Madam Chu's heart like a knife, hurting her... "I don't know when my mother will
Can you count my biological mother's dowry for me?" Chu Qingyi asked with a smile.
Mrs. Chu... felt that the knife stabbed a little deeper.
"I have time." She forced a smile and said confusedly.
"I can wait, but I can't wait for Third Sister's innocence." Chu Qingyi said with a smile.
"I'll give it to you within three days! Now that King Xuan is here, he is a witness. What else do you have to say?" Chu Xiang said impatiently. "Such a small matter, and you keep saying it again and again, really,
What about your other two conditions?"
"Since my father has said so, and since King Xuan has testified, I have the right to be my mother and agree. When the time comes, my mother can't do it, but she will sacrifice the face of the third sister, right, His Highness King Xuan." Chu Qingyi looked at it.
Yunmoxuan.
Yun Moxuan was suddenly named by Chu Qingyi. He looked at Chu Qingyi in surprise. Then he nodded expressionlessly, "I can bear witness."
Ha! Now Chu Qingyi felt relieved. Although this guy was cold-hearted, he had always been known as a wise king. Since he agreed to be a witness, then this matter would definitely come true. And in the future, Chu Qingyi
Qingcheng is going to marry Yun Moxuan, and the mother and daughter are unwilling to lose face in front of Yun Moxuan!
Mrs. Chu's face was even more ugly. In this situation, she could only bite Yinya and Xuetun to pieces!
"Now that I am weak, and the illness I suffered last time has not completely recovered, I want to ask my father for something." After Chu Qingyi finished speaking, she coughed twice on purpose. Her behavior made Mrs. Chu feel the knife in her heart again.
A little deeper.
Prime Minister Chu glared at Mrs. Chu. The incident of Chu Qingyi fainting at the door of the medical center a few days ago had not been completely forgotten. This incident made Prime Minister Chu very embarrassed. Even the regent, who had always refused to deal with him,
The king told him that the door of your Prime Minister's Mansion should be opened. Not even a serious doctor can enter this high-ranking family.
Mrs. Chu felt guilty and quickly looked away.
Then Prime Minister Chu looked at Chu Qingyi and said, "That's all you say."
"I want to wait for my mother to clear out the dowry my biological mother left me and return it to me, then go to the Hengwu Villa in the suburbs of Beijing to recuperate for a while. This Hengwu Villa is also the Zhuangzi that my biological mother bought before she was alive. Please also ask me.
Father allowed me to go to the other courtyard and handed over the other courtyard to me as well." Chu Qingyi said.
She asked for so many things today, Madam Chu, Mrs. Li will never let her off lightly. Now that Prime Minister Chu and Yun Moxuan are here, Mrs. Li has no choice but to attack. Once they are gone, Mrs. Li doesn't know what to do behind the scenes.
It’s hard to beat her up. She has just been reborn and has no resources. Continuing to stay in the Prime Minister’s Mansion is tantamount to courting death!
