The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

Meng Jinyao lowered her head and stared blankly at the wooden box in her hand. The wooden box was not heavy, but it felt heavy in her hand.

In the morning, she was still a poor person who couldn't even afford the food at Heshan Restaurant. In the afternoon, she suddenly became rich. This feeling of having a large sum of money in an instant was unreal.

Gu Jingxi left all these things to her, wasn't he afraid that she would waste his family, squander it wantonly, and end up losing all his property?

Gu Jingxi saw that the little girl was stunned and silent, looking at the wooden box stupidly, and couldn't help but find it funny. Her fiancé escaped from marriage a few days ago, and this girl was not stupid. She could still deal with it calmly, and she was bold enough to change her husband. Now she is stupid when seeing money. Could it be that the fiancé doesn’t have money yet?

He smiled and asked: "Madam, what's wrong?"

Hearing the sound, Meng Jinyao raised her head to look at him and asked, "Husband, aren't you afraid that I will ruin your family and your wealth?"

Gu Jingxi glanced at her and said with a smile: "Husband and wife are one, share weal and woe, and what's mine is yours. However, it's Madam's ability to lose all my family wealth. It's just that after losing all my family wealth, Madam will probably have to live with me in the future." It’s been a hard time.”

Meng Jinyao was shocked when she heard this, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

They got married under those circumstances. Compared with normal ordinary couples, they were different after all. They just made do with each other at most. Gu Jingxi actually felt that they were one and treated her as a wife who shared weal and woe in the true sense. ?

I have to say that Mr. Gu is unexpectedly responsible. But for such a responsible person to raise a son as irresponsible and willful as Gu Xiuming is probably because Gu Xiuming is bad at his core and his temperament is like his own. parents.

Gu Jingxi seemed to understand what she was thinking, and said: "I feel wronged by marrying into the Gu family. I can't give you anything else. I hope you won't despise me for this extraneous thing."

When Meng Jinyao heard this, she immediately understood. It turned out that she felt that she owed her a hidden illness, so she compensated her with money. But who would despise money? This is substantial compensation. She happens to be short of money and has no money to buy anything. This money comes just in time.

She calmed down and calmed down. A smile appeared on her lips and she responded calmly: "I don't mind it. Since your husband can rest assured to be in my charge, I will take good care of him."

Gu Jingxi nodded and said, "That's why I called Madam over. If Madam has nothing else to do, please go out first. I still have something to do."

"Then I'll go out first and won't disturb my husband, who is busy with his business."

After Meng Jinyao said that, she carried the wooden box out of the study. After returning to her bedroom, she opened the wooden box and took out the contents inside.

She flipped through the book in the warehouse and looked at the list of items recorded on it. She was amazed. The things in the warehouse were more amazing than she had imagined. There were many treasures, calligraphy, paintings and antiques, many of which were gifts from the emperor. They were probably gifts from the emperor after Gu Jingxi's meritorious service. Rewarded.

There are also those Zhuangzi and shops. Looking at the land deeds, it seems that Zhuangzi is located on the outskirts of Beijing. The geographical location is excellent, and the harvest must be quite large in a year. The same goes for the shops, which are all located in the bustling streets of the capital. These shops are making a lot of money every day.

No wonder Gu Jingxi said that it was her ability that could destroy all his family property. She thought she was incapable of destroying all Gu Jingxi's private property.

Finally, Meng Jinyao counted the banknotes Gu Jingxi gave her. They were all banknotes of different denominations, including fifty taels, one hundred taels, five hundred taels, one thousand taels, and five thousand taels. A total of thirty thousand taels. Two silver notes.

With Wan Guan's wealth in her hands, she felt a little dazed. Gu Jingxi was really generous. This was really too much. Whose husband only gave his wife thirty thousand taels of pocket money?

Ningdong and Qingqiu came in and were stunned when they saw their master holding a stack of banknotes.

Qingqiu asked: "Madam, why do you have so many banknotes?"

Meng Jinyao told the story of the study in a concise and concise manner.

When the two maids heard this, they were both shocked. At the same time, they were happy for their master. Being able to hand over the property to his master for management meant that the Marquis recognized his master in his heart and regarded him as his true wife. They would live a good life with him.

Ningdong glanced at the stack of silver notes, thoughtfully, and said, "Madam, since the Marquis spent this money on you, why not go out and buy some clothes and jewelry tomorrow? Your current dress is too plain and elegant. If you didn't have the conditions to dress up before, there's nothing you can do about it, but now the Marquis has given you money."

As she spoke, she took a look at her master. His clothes could not be said to be shabby, but could only be described as dignified and simple. Sun's dowry for her master also included jewelry, but they were of vulgar styles. It would be better not to wear them, and even the clothes were not worn at all. They are all old-fashioned colors.

Sun always treats her master like this. The jewelry is valuable jewelry, and the material of the clothes is not bad, but it just doesn't look good. Isn't this because she is afraid that the master will steal the second girl's limelight? If the master is good-looking and well-dressed, the second girl will be reduced to a mere foil.

It's just that Mrs. Sun has become accustomed to it and has short-sighted eyes. She has forgotten that her master is getting married. All she has prepared is to bring things to her husband's family. At the same time, she is thinking about benefiting the Meng family through this marriage, but she does not work hard on her master. If they look good and look good, their future uncle will look down upon them, so what benefits do they want to seek?

Meng Jinyao nodded and said matter-of-factly: "This is natural. I am his wife, and it is natural to spend his money. I will save his money and not spend it. There may be other women who can spend it for me."

Qingqiu said: "Madam, please relax, the Marquis is not like that kind of person."

"You don't look like that kind of person now, but who knows what will happen in the future? It's important to live well in the present." Meng Jinyao thought openly and didn't care whether her husband would support other women in the future. She clutched the banknote in her hand and was in a flash of lightning. , she suddenly remembered an important event that she had forgotten.

Ningdong and Qingqiu noticed the sudden change in her expression and asked in unison: "Madam, what's wrong with you?"

Meng Jinyao looked at Qingqiu and asked, "Qingqiu, do you still remember when I asked you at noon, is there anything I forgot to do?"

Qingqiu nodded: "Slave, do you still remember, has Madam forgotten something?"

Meng Jinyao gave an intriguing smile, opened her red lips, and responded with two words: "Dowry."

Before she got married, the spring was cold and she fell ill. She was groggy and had no energy to do anything. As soon as she recovered from the illness, it was the day of her wedding. She didn't have time to ask for her mother's dowry back. She originally wanted to return home after three dynasties. When she asked for it again, she found out that her fiancé had run away with someone else, so she forgot all about the business.

As soon as these words came out, Ningdong and Qingqiu suddenly remembered this forgotten top priority. The uncle's first wife, Madam's biological mother Zhou, had a large dowry when she married into the Meng family, but the first Madam passed away. Later, the dowry was held in the hands of the uncle's step-sibling, Mrs. Sun, saying that since the wife was still young, she would take care of it first and then give it to the wife after she left the palace.

Meng Jinyao put the banknote, land deed and booklet back into the wooden box and said, "I will buy clothes and jewelry another day. I have to go to Yongchang Uncle's Mansion tomorrow to get my mother's dowry back."

She has never been in a hurry to get her mother's dowry back from the Sun family. This is because her grandfather gave her her mother's dowry list before his death. Because her mother was an only daughter and had no brothers or sisters, she was afraid that her husband's family would covet the dowry, so she kept it. Carefully, the dowry list was made in duplicate in case the other copy was 'lost' at the husband's house.

Mrs. Sun must not have known that her mother's dowry list was in duplicate, so she thought of giving her something to deal with when she got married.
