Farm girl, she is always digging holes to bury people

"It doesn't make any sense to say this now. Aren't you asking me to get my mother's dowry? You can give it to me now. I'm in a hurry."

Zhong Cheng just wanted to take the things and leave. As for these relatives of his maternal grandfather's family, he had no interest in getting to know them, let alone getting to know them.

"Xiao Cheng, I know you hate our Qin family, but we really had no choice but to do it in the first place."

Mrs. Qin wanted to say something more to calm things down, but Zhong Cheng was determined not to listen.

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it."

Zhong Cheng manually shut up and held Qin Nan's hand.

The two people's nonchalant appearance instantly attracted the attention of the Qin family.

Recently in Liang City, they were also aware of the rumors about Mr. Feng Jiu.

This change from a man to a woman is indeed outrageous, but it also has a slightly reasonable feeling to it.

After looking at Qinan's appearance, they also thought that at least she was a woman better than a man, lest her only son Yun'er would become extinct in this generation.

Mrs. Qin is getting old after all. When she sees the new generation of children, she always wants to get close to them and know more about them.

"You are Feng 9, right?"

"You can call me Qi Nan." Qi Nan was also a little embarrassed. Damn it, Zhong Cheng had to drag her over to receive a dowry.

Now the people from his maternal grandfather's family were squatting and waiting at the door, and the atmosphere was quite awkward.

"Qinan?" Mrs. Qin reacted for a while before she understood.

"Okay, okay, Qinan is good, Qinan is a good name."

She stared at Qin Nan and looked at him carefully, already imagining in her mind what her and Zhong Cheng's children would look like.

Both of their faces are so beautiful, so the child born will definitely be a beautiful child.

Qi Nan didn't answer, and the Qin family knew enough not to bother him anymore.

Now the door of the Hou Mansion is closed, and they have been waiting for a quarter of an hour.

It can't be that people from the Hou Mansion want to shamelessly refuse to pay.

"Keep knocking on the door and if no one comes out, then break the door open for me."

"Yes, ma'am."

The Qin family members banged on the door again.

Still no one in the Hou Mansion dared to respond. It seemed that they were determined to deal with the situation to the end.

What they didn't know was that the old lady and Mr. Bai inside were also extremely anxious.

She originally thought that Mrs. Bai could easily hand over the dowry, but when she took the account book and checked it, she found that all those things had been spent long ago.

The remaining items are also damaged, damaged, and lost.

Moreover, the Hou Mansion is now an empty shell. Even if the Bai family is sold, there will be no money left to make up for the dowry.

The old lady felt that there was something fishy in this, but she checked the account books again and again in the past three days.

They didn't find anything wrong at all. The three-day deadline came so quickly, and they didn't even get a decent dowry back.

He didn't dare to open the door and let those from the Qin Mansion in.

"Is it really okay if we don't go out?" Listening to the commotion outside, Bai could guess what those people had planned for her.

She also wondered if she had gone too far. What if the people in the Qin Mansion jumped over the wall in a hurry?

"Then what do you think we should do now? It's all because of you, the Sangmenxing star, that you used up Qin Yun's dowry.

If you want to open the door now, go out and solve it yourself. "

"I don't!" Baishi 1 heard that he was about to be pushed out to pick up the bag, and he thought to himself: How can this happen?

"Mother, you are now responsible for all matters in the Marquis' Mansion. I'd better go back and kneel to reflect and copy more scriptures for the Marquis."

After Bai Shi finished speaking, he ran away in a hurry.

The old lady was left alone and sighed, "Ms. Bai, you... are really evil!"

The Qin family outside were really impatient to wait, so they called a few strong young men to come over, and prepared to let them push the wood to open the door of the Hou Mansion.

Just when they were about to take tough measures, a rapid clatter of horse hooves suddenly came from the street.

"The imperial edict has arrived. No one else is here, please retreat quickly."

"At this time, His Majesty will pass some imperial edict to the Marquis Mansion. Isn't it because the title has been decided?"

Mrs. Qin was afraid that she would be a step too late, and if the people in the Hou Mansion showed off their power again later, she would be angry.

"Madam, don't be impulsive. It won't be too late for us to go in and ask for the dowry after they finish delivering the imperial edict."

"Hurry, hurry, open the door, the Holy Spirit's decree has arrived."

After hearing this, Mr. Bai no longer pretended to kneel down and copy scriptures.

She followed the old lady and called out Zhong Nuo and Zhong Yi. After waiting for a while, she would soon be appointed as the mother-in-law of the next Marquis.

"Pay attention to your manners, and don't let our Marquis Mansion make any more jokes in front of everyone later."

"Yes, old lady."

After being beaten by the old lady, Mr. Bai did not dare to make any other moves.

She thought bitterly in her heart that if she was given a little more time, she would be able to turn over soon.

If there is no such thing as an old lady, she should be the one who will be scolded later.

As soon as the door of the Hou Mansion was opened, the father-in-law got off his horse and read out the imperial edict.

"By God's blessing, the emperor has decreed that Lord Zhonghou passed away suddenly. I am deeply saddened, but the position of marquis cannot be empty. I have specially appointed Zhongcheng, the legitimate son of Lord Zhong, as the eldest son of the Houfu. After getting married, he can inherit the Houfu."

"what!"

Bai was the first to scream in doubt.

How could it be Zhong Cheng? Shouldn't one of her two sons be chosen to succeed?

Obviously Zhong Cheng had severed ties with the Hou Mansion long ago!

"Be brave, how can you make a loud noise when reading out the imperial edict? This is a great disrespect to the Holy One. After returning to the palace later, the Sa family will report the truth truthfully."

"My father-in-law, please calm down. My daughter-in-law has developed hysteria because she was so worried about the death of Lord Marquis.

Don’t take what she said just now seriously, our Marquis Mansion will fully cooperate with the Holy Majesty’s will. "

In the old lady's mind, there is actually no difference in who will be the marquis.

As long as he is her son's biological blood and a descendant of their Zhong family, it will be fine.

Zhong Cheng also didn't expect that he would be involved in such a thing when he came today.

How unlucky!

Whoever wants to be this Marquis can be his, he has no intention of wasting his life in the Marquis' Mansion.

After they finish their work in Liangcheng, he will follow Qin Nan to live in seclusion elsewhere.

He couldn't take this hot potato, so he quickly took Qinan's hand and wanted to take her away.

But my father-in-law had sharp eyes and saw him at a glance.

"Little Marquis, please stay."

"You admit your mistake, I am not a young prince, and the affairs of the prince's house have nothing to do with me.

We are just ordinary people watching the fun. Now I have to go back to eat. "
