The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot
Chapter 42 The visitor is evil
The next day.
After Meng Jinyao had breakfast, she took out her mother's dowry list that her grandfather had given her and compared it with the dowry list given to her by Sun.
She wanted to see how courageous Mrs. Sun was. In addition to the dowry given to her by the Yongchang residence, how much of the things her mother left her had Mrs. Sun added to her dowry, and how much she had eaten. Its private pocket.
After comparing the two dowry lists, Meng Jinyao's face darkened and she sneered: "You're really brave. You've swallowed so much and you're not afraid of being stuffed to death."
Hearing this, Qingqiu and Ningdong both came over and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
"Take a look."
They were all confidant maids, and Meng Jinyao did not guard against them and directly showed them the two dowry lists.
The two maids were very angry after reading this. Although the Yongchang Mansion has declined, the eldest daughter will not be reduced to such a shabby dowry when she gets married.
Many of the items prepared by Yongchang Bo's Mansion for their master could be packed into boxes to occupy some space but were actually of no use. It was not easy to keep these items, so they could only sell them to get some money back.
In addition, the silver mentioned in the dowry was only 800 taels of dowry silver. This came from the middle-gong and belonged to the Yongchang House to give to the master. It was really pitiful. The pocket money the Marquis gave to his wife yesterday was only 30,000 taels. , are these 800 taels sent to the beggars?
As for the items left by the late wife to the master, those valuable jewelry, jades, calligraphy and paintings, etc. were basically not added to the list, but replaced with other less valuable items. The shop that made a lot of money every day used the ones that were losing money and the geographical location. Replace poor shops with inferior ones, replace superior farmland with inferior ones, and directly replace the prince with a civet cat.
In this way, Mrs. Sun once said that the harvest of the village and shop left by the late wife was not good, so the master was asked to live frugally and not to be extravagant and wasteful. All the money earned had to be reserved for the master's dowry.
Now comparing this dowry list, isn't it what Sun said was "a bad harvest"? How could a village or shop in a bad location have a good harvest?
Ningdong was so angry that he gritted his teeth: "Madam, Mr. Sun has gone too far!"
Meng Jinyao half-squinted her eyes, looking at the two dowry lists with a heavy gaze, and chuckled: "I had expected that she would enrich her own pockets, but I didn't expect that she would swallow so much. But, she dared to do this, not Did my good father and grandmother give it to me intentionally or unintentionally?”
Hearing this, Ningdong and Qingqiu looked at their master with distress. Except for the second young master, everyone in the Yongchang House was colluding. After the old uncle passed away, no one protected the master. If it weren't for the marriage agreement with the Changxing House, the master would There is also use value, otherwise life would probably be more difficult than that of a maid in the house.
Meng Jinyao took a deep breath and said to Ningdong: "Ningdong, please go down and have someone prepare the carriage. I will go to Yongchang Uncle's Mansion today."

Yongchang Bofu.
When the porter saw the eldest girl coming back, he didn't dare to block the door this time. He didn't need to inform the uncle and his wife first and get permission from the two masters before letting the eldest girl in. Instead, the moment he saw the eldest girl, he immediately and enthusiastically greeted the eldest girl. The girl is welcomed into the house.
The uncle gave orders a few days ago that if the eldest girl returns to her parents' home, no one is allowed to be blocked from the door. If the eldest girl is neglected, he will be severely punished.
As soon as Meng Jinyao entered the house, she saw the housekeeper. Before she could say anything, the housekeeper came up to her and said in a respectful tone: "Miss, are you back?"
She nodded slightly, opened her lips and asked, "Are my father and mother at home?"
The housekeeper replied respectfully: "Miss, you have come back just in time. My uncle and his wife are both at home today, as well as the prince, the second son and the second girl."
Hearing this, Meng Jinyao nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, I thought my trip today would be in vain."
The housekeeper was slightly stunned and looked at her carefully. He saw a smile on her lips, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. She didn't know if she was overthinking it. The girl seemed to be coming with bad intentions today.
Not long after, Meng Jinyao was invited to the living room to wait. Immediately, a maid served her good tea and fresh fruits and snacks. They were given to her to eat first to relieve her boredom, while another maid went to inform the other masters in the house.
This treatment as a distinguished guest is completely different from the day when Sanchao returned home.
Ningdong and Qingqiu looked at all this with calm expressions, but in their hearts they despised Yongchang's behavior. The uncle saw the day when Sanchao returned home. The marquis accompanied his master back home. Knowing that the master was favored by the marquis, he saw them again. Taking advantage of the value, they wanted to stabilize their master, but unfortunately their wish was doomed to fail.
In that compartment, Meng Dongyuan and Sun were both stunned when they heard that Meng Jinyao was back. They had only returned from three visits a few days ago, so why did they suddenly come back today? Moreover, no one was sent to inform him in advance when he came back.
Mrs. Sun was thoughtful and asked her husband with an uneasy look on her face: "Husband, do you think that girl Ayao did something wrong at her husband's house, so she came back in a panic and asked us to help her?"
Meng Dongyuan immediately frowned and said with a worried expression: "That rebellious girl disobeyed discipline when she was in the boudoir, and even made trouble after getting married. If she does anything to make the Marquis of Changxing angry and is abandoned by the Marquis of Changxing, let her hang. Let’s grow her hair and become a sister-in-law, our Yongchang Mansion will not welcome such an embarrassing daughter.”
Mrs. Sun rolled her eyes and said softly: "Husband, maybe we have overthought it. In fact, A-Yao is quite well-behaved sometimes. She probably didn't adapt after getting married when she came back today. She misses her mother's family. Why don't we call her a few times?" Let’s go together to meet their eldest sister and let a few children get together?”
"Sure enough, he was born on the Sangmen Star, so there is no time for peace and quiet." Meng Dongyuan said, glaring at his wife displeased, "A loving mother often loses her children, you know that if you indulge her and don't be strict with her, you will be harmed. Her. That’s all, she’s married anyway, and we can’t control her. If she causes any trouble, just let her die on her own. I’ll pretend that I never gave birth to such a sin.”
Mrs. Sun smiled, and then ordered the maid to inform a few juniors.
Not long after, three siblings, Meng Jinyu, Meng Chengzhang, and Meng Chengxing, came and went to the living room with their parents to meet the eldest sister.
When the family of five went to the living room, they saw Meng Jinyao drinking tea leisurely. She didn't look like she had gotten into trouble at her husband's house and needed to come back to ask her parents for help.
Meng Dongyuan and Sun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and immediately raised a kind smile.
Mrs. Sun asked pleasantly: "Why didn't Ayao send someone to notify you when she came back? This way, mother can let the kitchen prepare some of your favorite dishes."
Meng Jinyao raised her eyes and looked at her with an indifferent look and said indifferently: "It doesn't matter if I'm not prepared. Anyway, my mother doesn't know what I like to eat."
Mrs. Sun was choked by these words, her smile was a bit unbearable, and she looked at her husband awkwardly.
Meng Dongyuan reprimanded in a deep voice: "You bastard, why are you talking to your mother? You brothers and sisters all have different preferences. It's normal for your mother to remember wrongly occasionally."
Meng Jinyao was not annoyed at all, her expression was as usual, her smile remained the same, and she responded slowly: "Yes, mother has always been forgetful. Just like this time, she forgot to return some things to me. I didn't want my mother to make a trip, so I came here by myself."
As she spoke, she took out a list from her sleeve and handed it to Sun. She copied it based on her biological mother's dowry list. In order to prevent them from destroying the evidence, she copied it first to help Sun remember it. Fan.
