"There is no separation, but it belongs to whoever it belongs to. If the old lady wants to touch the things in the palace, I will naturally open the warehouse and let you choose, so that the accountant can remember each item clearly, but you
But you want to touch our private treasury, why? Could it be that the old lady has forgotten the last words of the old Duke Guo and the witness of the emperor? "
"You dare to threaten me?" The old lady hates her. She has been in the business all her life. She was prosperous in the first half of her life, but in the second half of her life she has to be manipulated by that bitch. How can she be willing to do so.
She didn't understand why the old prince wanted to establish that bullshit document!
Relying on others is not as reliable as relying on yourself. Since she doesn't trust her son, she should let her son inherit the title instead of letting that bitch inherit the title. Not only did he inherit the title, he also has demands.
What's deplorable is that the old man actually agreed.
She hates it so much!
"You dare to reach out for something that doesn't belong to you, why should I not dare?" The Duke's wife smiled contemptuously, frightening everyone present.
"Don't think about taking advantage of others every day. I'll take advantage of you. That's my magnanimity. If I don't let you take advantage of it, you should stop it and stay away wisely instead of rushing to take advantage of it. Such behavior can be harmful.
Don't blame me for not making it clear. If you extend your claws too long, I will cut them off one by one. It should look good too."
"Oh! By the way, my mother-in-law is pregnant this year, so please don't feel unwell again. I will ask the doctor to be stationed at Ning'an Hall to prevent the old lady from feeling unwell and delaying the concubine ceremony for my wife. This will not be good.
." When the old man was alive, the old lady either felt uncomfortable here or in pain somewhere, and would not go there every time. After the old man was gone, she used the same methods as before. Since she had forgotten who she was, she could do it.
Be a filial daughter-in-law and remind her from time to time to prevent the old lady from wandering around.
After saying that, the Duke's wife flicked her sleeves, took her daughter and left Ning'an Hall.
Anyway, everyone in this house has lived like this for more than ten years, so she has nothing to fear. As for the outside world... As for the vanity of the old lady, she is afraid that people outside will know that they are not at odds with each other. After all, she is a stepmother.
From top to bottom, Ning'antang was so overwhelmed by the aura of the Duke's wife that he almost couldn't breathe.
The cold sweat on Mrs. Chu's forehead fell on her eyelashes, and she woke up with a start. She was really in trouble just now. When she thought of being able to open the private treasury in the east courtyard and let her daughter choose from it, she became tempted and greedy.
But she had forgotten that for so many years, the old lady had tried every means to pry away the private treasury of the East Campus, how could it be so easy?
In the past few years, the father-in-law and his son were on the battlefield, and Luo Jingyao was seriously ill in the mansion, but the Gu family didn't catch her from inside and outside, and didn't give them the slightest chance to take advantage of her. She was always trying to find ways to cause trouble, but
Didn't they save the day and suppress them that time?
When Mrs. Chu thought of this, the sweat on her back soaked her inner clothes.
She hurriedly pulled her daughter to leave. The first thing she wanted to do was to prepare clothes and jewelry for her daughter. Luo Jingyao's health was not good, but no matter how bad she was, she was given a marriage. No matter how bad she was, she was still a prince and a prince.
, and her daughter can never be lower than Luo Jingyao.
She can't compare to Gu, so now she can only place her hope on Luo Mingwu.
The words of the Duke's wife were deafening, and the old lady had not reacted until now. Her eyes were red, and she did not react even when Mrs. Chu resigned. She stared straight at the back of the Duke's wife as she left.
Luo Jinhui frowned and could only wait for the old lady to recover. He Lingyao looked at Luo Jinhui anxiously. They were preparing clothes and jewelry one by one. What should she do?
Luo Jinhui motioned to her to find a way.
"That's unreasonable, bitch, bitch." The old lady was so angry that she threw everything she could see in front of her. He Lingyao felt heartbroken when she saw it. She didn't need such vulgar things in her life as a carp spirit, and she didn't need her at all.
Go worry about it, but judging from the memory of her last life, she lived a very hard life. These ornaments must have cost tens of thousands of taels. If they were pawned or bought, wouldn't her clothes and jewelry come out?
Now it's wasted.
"Mother, don't be angry. My daughter will help you." Luo Jinhui comforted her mother distressedly. This was her supporter. Otherwise, how could she have stayed in the Duke's Mansion for so many years? As for her husband's family, they were just like relatives.
If you want to go back, just check it out. If you don't want to go back, she won't care. Who told her to be tough in the background and her mother loves her.
"How can you help? The matter has come to this. She doesn't care about it now, but I can't ignore it. Your brother is really worthless. If I want to count on him, I can't count on him. I can only think of ways to let him have more hands.
Yinqian, once I leave, they will definitely not tolerate your brother anymore, and they will definitely split up the family. This splitting up the family in secret is different in nature from splitting up the family openly."
As long as the trouble is not made public, no one will know that they have separated, and the Duke's Mansion will always be their protective umbrella.
"Mother, Luo Jingyao can't marry. Even if she does, she can't marry Prince An. No matter how unfavored he is, he will still be the emperor's son." As long as they don't marry, they will have a chance. If they do, what else will they do?
Get what my daughter needs.
"The imperial edict has been issued, who dares to resist and disobey it? The Duke's Palace cannot afford it." The most important thing is that she is used to a good life. If she wants to separate her family and sever ties with Luo Bingang, she will not be able to enjoy the benefits from the Duke's Palace.
Everything. Since you don't want to do this, you can't take the risk. If you are not careful, you will catch up with hundreds of people.
"What if something happens?" Will the royal family want a daughter-in-law who is not innocent? Doesn't that discredit the royal family?
"Don't mess around." The old lady was startled by Luo Jinhui's fierce look.
"Mother, we have to fight for ourselves. I am married, but you have been here all the time. I am not worried about leaving, so I have stayed. I know that my sister-in-law has endured it to the end. Sooner or later, we will have to go back. Stay.
You, I'm worried, my brother is like that, my nephew is not as good as those in the east courtyard. I heard that when one party rises, the other party will fall. The good ones are better, and the defeated ones...
You know, I always feel that it was the people over there who robbed my brother and his family of their luck. Think about it, was my brother smart when he was a child?"
The old lady really recalled it. In her memory, her son was more lovable than that bitch. Everyone liked to tease him. When he became an adult, he slowly became dull!
Could it be...
"This is baseless and cannot be taken to be true. We will never say it again in the future."
"Can we go and ask if it's true or not? Do you want to go to Taoism or Tianmen Temple?" Luo Jinhui said in an attitude of "you choose, we'll go and ask."
"Then let's go for a walk after the Spring Banquet. Tianmen Temple is nearby." The old lady said with her eyes closed as she twirled her beads. She had lost her temper just now. She was old and her body couldn't bear it. She was a little sleepy now.
I also have chest tightness.
"Okay, let's all go, but my sister-in-law probably doesn't have time. She has to take care of the common things. Forget it, I think this time we and I will just take the three girls in the house to see if they can get married." Mrs. Gu and the couple
How can she use it even if she is such a brat?
"Sure, go when the time comes."
"Mom, last time something happened to Yao'er, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep well. I thought, since you are well-informed, I want to find some secret guards for Yao'er to protect her. Which one do you think is suitable?
I can't make up my mind, I'm almost bald." Luo Jinhui said angrily.
"Mother, grandma is tired. Let her rest first. It was probably an accident last time. Forget about this guard, I don't need it. There is no need to trouble grandma. I can't bear to have you work hard for me."
He Lingyao said obediently and distressedly.
"I'm ready even if you don't tell me. Just go back and I'll have someone protect you secretly."
"Mom is ready? Yao'er, please kowtow to your grandmother. She has worked really hard for you. Your mother is a loser. If it weren't for your grandmother, we wouldn't know where we would be now." Luo
Jinhui wiped her tears and said.
He Lingyao knelt on his knees with a bang, and kowtowed to the old lady three times. When he raised his head, his forehead was red with tears of emotion in his eyes. He was choked up and could not speak for a while, so he just knelt down on his knees.
He walked forward, hugged the old lady's legs and cried softly.
The old lady was so moved that her eyes turned red.
"Who am I not for you? Get up quickly, you won't be pretty if you cry anymore. Look at you, such a solid child, your forehead is red. It's all your mother's fault. Lamei, go and ask the doctor to take a look at your forehead."
I don’t know if I’m injured or if I can recover as before in three days.”
He Lingyao followed the old lady's strength and stood up.
Luo Jinhui was embarrassed and said righteously that this should be done because the old lady was so kind to them and she was the best mother and grandmother in the world.
"Here, you also have a guarantee. I'm old and can't use it. It's just right for you." The old lady handed a small black sign to Luo Jinhui and said.
Luo Jinhui and He Lingyao's hands trembled with excitement, but the old lady thought they were moved and felt even more pleased.
After He Lingyao took the ointment prescribed by the doctor, he followed Luo Jinhui back to his Yilan Pavilion. The mother and daughter stared at the small sign and called out tentatively.
A black shadow fell to the ground with a "swish", and the two people were very happy. This would make it easier for them to do what they wanted to do in the future.
But Luo Jingyao didn't know that the old lady actually had secret guards, and even gave them to He Lingyao and her daughter, so that they could be more confident in dealing with her.
She was being dragged by the Duke's wife to look at her dowry. She didn't even look at it in detail. A quick glance at it really shocked her little heart. It was probably too much.
"Mother, will this empty out our house?" Luo Jingyao was speechless!
"No, your father and your brother are very capable, and I have been saving a dowry for you since you were a child. How can this be too much? There are also shops, Zhuangzishan, farmland, etc., which are not much at all. Your brother and the others also give them to you.
Get ready, if Prince An's betrothal gift is not large enough, I'm afraid..." This time the old emperor will suffer a heavy hemorrhage.
Let him plot against them day by day.
"Mom, you don't need too much, just normal specifications." Luo Jingyao was a little reluctant to part with it.
"Don't worry. Even if you marry someone, this dowry will still be yours. No one else can take it over, so Liu'er can rest assured." Mrs. Guogong felt that calling her Liu'er was more cordial. Since He Lingyao liked it, give it to her, she thought.
I thought, calling them Liu'er, with both brothers in front of them, would better reflect the feeling that they are brothers and sisters.
As for others, they can't get in at all.
"Won't this make Na unhappy?" Luo Jingyao raised her finger and pointed at the palace.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you have the ability, there is nothing you can't do. I just want to show the world that even if my daughter marries a person like that, her mother's family will always be your support, and there will be no disadvantages just because she marries someone.
Same." She was afraid that the ignorant person would bully her daughter.
As for the dowry specifications?
Everyone is just trying to avoid bumping into the royal princesses and queens, so they keep pressing them. There are a lot of rich people, and they will also find ways. It sounds like the number of offers is small, and there is no way to compare with the royal family, but the box is open.
There is no moisture in it. Coming here this way will not only take care of the royal family’s face, but also increase the dowry for your daughter.
But her?
This box is already big enough, but there are a lot of things. Who can let the daughter's father and brother make money? The palace only rewards a lot.
Every time the father and son defeated each other, the masters in the upper ranks of the palace would reward a lot of things. She divided these among several children, but the daughter's was slightly more, plus her dowry.
There are a lot of shops and so on every year.
"Your grandpa will probably add more makeup to you, and since this is a gifted marriage, the palace may not be interested in it anyway. You, just feel free to embroider your own wedding dress." Madam Guogong patted her daughter's hand.
road.
But Luo Jingyao froze!
The original owner was very ill at that time, but she was very dexterous with her hands. The one under the school girl Hong was fast and good, but now it's her!
She is good at wielding swords and guns, she is second best at divination and fortune-telling, and she is also good at drawing formations. After all, they learned these two together, but now she probably can't handle the embroidery needle.
"Mom, I have an embroiderer, so I don't need it. I almost forgot about it." Luo Jingyao said embarrassedly.
The Duke’s wife had a clear look in her eyes!
"It still requires two stitches, so you can embroider the hijab." The Duke's wife said with a smile. Seeing her daughter's relaxed body, she was also very funny.
She still remembered that her daughter fell down and fainted. When she woke up, she told her that she had forgotten many things, and even secretly told her that she was not her daughter.
She was really happy and angry.
As a mother, she knows best.
Three days later!
The Duke's wife took Luo Jingyao towards the gate.
Luo Mingwu and He Lingyao were waiting at the second gate with Mrs. Chu and Luo Jinhui early, nervous and excited.
After seeing the Duke's wife and Luo Jingyao, the two calmed down.
He Lingyao also asked what color clothes Luo Jingyao would make, but he didn't expect that she would make blue clothes. It was very fresh and gentle, but also had a sense of alienation. The collar, sleeves and skirt were made of gold.
The silk thread outline is thinner than the usual gold thread, but it actually looks more beautiful. There is a set of sapphire hairpins of the same color on the head, and a simple and extremely simple jade bracelet is looming on the wrist, reflecting Luo Jingyao's slender jade hands, white and slender.
