After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

She was so shameless, Liu Yunxiang really didn't know what to scold her for.

She stood still at the door, wanting to hear what Mrs. Liu had to say.

"Mother Gan, go to the West Branch and call for the disaster star. I have something to ask her."

Liu Yunxiang sneered, opened the curtain and walked in. He looked at Madam Liu and saw that she was a little guilty and her eyes were wandering. "I came by chance. I heard Madam say who was the disaster star. I don't know who she was talking about?"

Mrs. Liu paused for a moment, then said abruptly: "You are indeed here at a good time. The family is in urgent need of some money. You can make up for it."

"What's the use?"

"Just take the money."

"If I don't make it clear, I don't have it."

"As a mother, you won't give me any face when I talk to you?" Mrs. Liu said angrily.

"How much is Madam's face worth?"

"you!"

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath. If she asked for money normally, let alone 1000 taels or 1 taels, she would not be stingy. But it won't work if the money is used to save Liu Er. She is not that noble, spending money to save someone who wants to harm herself.

Mrs. Cheng thought for a while and said: "In that case, my aunt still has some respect for herself. If she does, take some out. See if I am anxious, you are too unfilial as a daughter. "

"I'm not filial, but you are filial?" Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows.

Mrs. Cheng smiled and said, "Of course I respect my aunt."

"Then you take the money!"

"I...it's not like I don't have any."

"Oh, just say filial piety."

Cheng was silenced and secretly glared at Liu Yunxiang.

At this time, the boy in the front yard ran over and said that he could not stop him. He would not give up until the other party got the money today.

Mrs. Liu held her forehead, and had no choice but to patiently explain to Liu Yunxiang: "Your second uncle owed money at a gambling house. Today, someone came to demand the debt. He said that he would not pay back the money, so he smashed up our minister's house. "

Liu Yunxiang snorted, "It turned out to be to pay Liu Er's debt. Since he was the one who caused the trouble, he should bear the responsibility."

"He is your second uncle after all."

"Madam, don't you forget that he persuaded you to drive me out two days ago?"

Mrs. Liu took a deep breath. Seeing that Liu Yunxiang was like this, she must be unwilling to give out any money. So she had to take out the 1000 taels of silver she had raised and asked Nanny Gan to get two gold hairpins and two pairs of jade bracelets.

"These jewelry are estimated to be 500 taels when converted. I can't take out any more. You can give it to them and explain it clearly to them. If the trouble continues, we will report it to the official."

Mrs. Cheng hurriedly caught these things. When she lowered her head, she couldn't help but curl her lips, "I'll give it to them here. Madam, have a good rest. After they are sent away, I will go to the kitchen to make chicken soup for you."

"Go."

Mrs. Cheng was carrying something, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Liu Yunxiang stopped Cheng and asked, "How much money does Liu Er owe the gambling house?"

Mrs. Cheng felt guilty and shouted: "Auntie, since you are not willing to take money to save your uncle, then stop asking so much!"

Liu Yunxiang looked at Mrs. Liu, "How much?"

Mrs. Liu looked tired and said: "One thousand, five hundred taels."

Liu Yunxiang looked at Mr. Cheng: "Really one thousand, five hundred taels?"

Mrs. Cheng was in a hurry to go out and wanted to avoid Liu Yunxiang, but every time she blocked the road, she could only say in a hurry: "It is indeed one thousand and five hundred taels. Auntie, please stop blocking the road. I have to return the money to others quickly!"

Liu Yunxiang sneered, "But I just came back from the front yard and asked the people in the gambling shop. They said it was 1000 taels. How come it's 500 taels in your mouth? Are you going to eat the extra 500 taels?" "

Mrs. Cheng's eyes widened and she was dumbfounded for a moment. She didn't expect that Liu Yunxiang had already been to the front yard.

"I……"

When Mrs. Liu heard this, she slammed the table angrily, "What's going on with the Yunchang family?"

Mrs. Cheng shuddered and turned around bluntly, "It must be... my aunt must have heard wrong..."

"Call them over and ask them carefully and it will become clear." Liu Yunxiang said.

Mrs. Liu nodded to Nanny Gan. Nanny Gan was about to go out when Mrs. Cheng said hurriedly: "I heard wrong. It is indeed 1000 taels. There is no need to call them."

Mrs. Liu gasped with anger. No matter how stupid she was, she knew what was going on. In order to save her father-in-law, she didn't have to give any money, and she also wanted to make profits from it.

Mrs. Cheng clearly knew what was going on in the house. Her husband was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. She was ill and had no way to ask for help. She wanted to take care of things but couldn't get any money.

But in order to help them with their second wife, she still squeezed out the 1000 taels, including her few remaining jewelry.

As long as their second wife knows how to be grateful, she cannot do such a thing!

Seeing Mrs. Liu like this, Mrs. Cheng stammered and explained a lot. Seeing that Mrs. Liu's expression had not improved yet, she had to put down the jewelry first and said, "I will use this silver to send the people from the gambling house away first."

With that said, Mrs. Cheng ran away quickly.

"Nanny Gan, if you follow her, you must watch her give the money to those people." Mrs. Liu said to Nanny Gan beside her.

Aunt Gan nodded, "Old slave, I'll go now."

At this time, only Mrs. Liu and Liu Yunxiang were left in the hall, and the mother and daughter were already far apart.

"When I got married, you prepared a generous dowry for me. This dowry helped me survive many difficult times." Liu Yunxiang took out a few banknotes from his arms, walked to Mrs. Liu, and handed over Put it on the table.

"Here is 10 million taels."

Mrs. Liu's eyes widened, "You, how come you have so much money?"

"Madam, just take it and treat it as my return to you for the dowry you gave me back then."

Mrs. Liu looked at the banknotes on the table, her nose was sore and her eyes were blurry. She recalled her mood when she was preparing a dowry for her daughter. The Shilang's Mansion was not one of those aristocratic families, but the family was not rich. Because she was afraid that her daughter would be looked down upon by the Hou Mansion, she took out more than half of the dowry she brought and pieced together more than ten boxes.

But in fact, it was not even 10 taels. She gave a lot more.

"I never thought about getting back the dowry I gave you."

"You'd better take it. I'll feel uneasy if I owe you."

"Yunxiang..." Mrs. Liu raised her head and looked at Liu Yunxiang, "Mom has done many wrong things in the past, can't you forgive me?"

Liu Yunxiang took a step back, "I can forgive you, but can we still be the same as before?"

"Of course I can. Mom will try her best to be nice to you."

"You also said that you have to do your best, but for a real mother and daughter, their feelings are revealed naturally and not deliberately, so we can't go back after all. Since we are both at odds, it's better to make it as good as possible. . I promised you to save Minister Liu before, and I will not break my promise. Keep the money for yourself and use it to marry Yun Heng in the future."

After speaking, Liu Yunxiang walked out.

In the evening, Liu Yunheng came to the west side courtyard to have dinner with Liu Yunxiang and the others.

"My mother told my second uncle and my eldest sister-in-law to find a house and move out of the Minister's Mansion as soon as possible."

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "This family is very thick-skinned, and they will definitely think of all kinds of tricks to stay."

"No way?"

As soon as Liu Yunheng finished speaking, someone next door shouted: "Oh no, grandma hanged herself!"
