Lin Qingrou took out a purse from her arms, "Didn't Third Sister-in-law ask mother to pay her five hundred taels of silver? I have three hundred taels here, and I will give it to Third Sister-in-law first. The remaining two hundred taels will be taken from me every month from now on." It will be deducted from my and my mother’s monthly routines, do you think this is okay?”

Fang Yueru was shocked when she heard this. Rou'er had given her the monthly routine every month, how could she still come up with three hundred taels?

Fang Yueru quietly moved to Lin Qingrou and whispered in her ear: "Rou'er, where did you get these three hundred taels of silver?"

"I asked Aunt Wen to take out all the money you saved. I still have some gifts that the Fourth Prince gave me a few days ago. I pawned them. All the money is here."

Fang Yueru became anxious when she heard this, "How can this be done? It was very difficult for me to save that money to buy a dowry for you. How can I get it out so easily?"

The money was earned by their mother and daughter over the past few months, plus Fang Yueru asked her father and brother for it while licking her old face.

She had saved all this money to buy a dowry for Rou'er. How could she give this money to Yu Wenting?

Lin Qingrou felt helpless when she heard this, "Mom, I have heard the whole story from Aunt Wen. This is obviously a trap set by the third sister-in-law, but we can't find any loopholes in her, and there is no evidence to prove your innocence. Now the only way to resolve this matter as soon as possible is to pay her the money. Do you still want to make this matter bigger and let others see our joke?"

After hearing what her daughter said, Fang Yueru stopped talking, because she knew clearly that what her daughter said was right.

What's more, the old lady just said that if she didn't pay, she would be sent to the government, and then she would be completely finished.

Fang Yueru had no other choice but to obey her daughter's words.

The old lady was a little impatient when she saw the two of them talking to each other for a long time.

"What are you mumbling over there? Why, are you still reluctant to take out these three hundred taels?"

Lin Qingrou saw that the old lady looked unhappy and hurriedly explained: "No, grandma, mother is just worried that you will disagree with the method that my granddaughter just said."

The old lady snorted coldly when she heard this, "Don't explain, I don't know her yet? I'm so fussy about it, I'm not even willing to give up this little money. As for whether I can agree with what you just said, I have to ask your third sister-in-law what she thinks." .”

Lin Qingrou originally wanted to fool around, so she asked the old lady directly.

Unexpectedly, the old lady was quite protective of Yu Wenting. It seemed that she had to ask Yu Wenting herself.

Lin Qingrou forced a smile and said to Yu Wenting: "Third sister-in-law, it's not that we don't want to compensate you, it's just that these five hundred taels are really not a small amount, and we can't take it out at the moment. As I just said, you can take these three hundred taels I’ll take it away first and return the rest to you every month, do you think that’s okay?”

Yu Wenting looked aside for a long time, and finally it was her turn to speak.

She originally didn't expect Fang Yueru to be able to come up with five hundred taels of silver at once, but now that she could get three hundred taels immediately, it was not a small amount.

Anyway, the two hundred taels will be replenished little by little, and she will not suffer any loss.

Then pretend to be generous in front of grandma, and don't embarrass her too much.

Yu Wenting pretended to think for a moment and finally nodded.

"In that case, just follow what the third sister said."

Lin Qingrou was very angry when she saw Yu Wenting looking like this. She was clearly the one who framed her mother, and in the end she acted like she was magnanimous.

Fortunately, she was thinking about winning over Yu Wenting before, but now it seems that her third sister-in-law is just a smiling tiger with deep thoughts.

Lin Qingrou smiled and said to the old lady: "Grandma, since the third sister-in-law has agreed, we have paid off the money. Can this matter end here?"

The old lady didn't want to make this matter bigger, so she naturally wanted it to end here.

However, it is not up to her to decide whether the matter can be stopped here. It still depends on Yu Wenting's thoughts.

"Wen Ting, I've also lost this money. Do you think this is..."

After going through so much trouble, Fang Yueru had already paid the price. Yu Wenting originally wanted to let her go.

But just when Lin Qingrou asked this question, she suddenly changed her mind.

Since Lin Qingrou came here to resolve the matter as soon as possible, she naturally couldn't let her succeed.

Fang Yueru has always cared about her own face the most, so she must lose all her face to relieve her hatred.

Yu Wenting thought for a moment and came up with a plan.

Yu Wenting frowned slightly and said softly: "Grandma, I don't know why, although my mother has compensated me with money, my granddaughter-in-law still feels very uncomfortable. She always feels like something is missing."

The old lady is too shrewd, and she still doesn't understand what Yu Wenting said. She still wants an apology.

This matter was originally Fang Yueru's fault, and it was understandable that Yu Wenting wanted an apology.

"Third daughter-in-law, as a mother-in-law, you should apologize to Wen Ting for stealing your daughter-in-law's dowry, right?"

Yu Wenting chuckled after hearing this and apologized to her? This is not enough.

If you want to embarrass her, you have to embarrass her in a big way.

Before Fang Yueru and her daughter could react, Yu Wenting spoke first: "Grandma, mother almost committed the crime of deceiving the emperor this time, and almost implicated the entire Hou family. I'm afraid it's not enough to just apologize to the grandson's wife, right? Don’t we also have to apologize to the rest of our Hou family?”

The old lady was a little stunned when she heard this. Is it so serious?

But if you think about it carefully, it seems to be the same thing. That is, Fang Yueru was lucky and did not touch the thing given by the Holy Emperor. Otherwise, wouldn't it be the crime of deceiving the emperor?

"This... what Wen Ting said makes sense."

Yu Wenting was overjoyed when she heard this, and continued: "Since my grandmother feels the same way, it's better to let my mother apologize in front of everyone in the Hou Mansion. If my mother can do this, then this matter will be over. How about we never mention it again?"

Fang Yueru became anxious when she heard this. Who doesn't know that she is the most honorable person.

Asking her to apologize to her daughter-in-law in public was even more uncomfortable than killing her.

What's more, she didn't take her stuff at all, she was just forced to pay for it and settle the matter.

If she really apologized, wouldn't that have confirmed her guilt?

"Mom, my daughter-in-law has already said that I didn't do it at all. Why should I apologize to her? And in front of everyone? Isn't this obviously meant to humiliate me?"

The old lady was very unhappy when she heard this, "Now that the matter has come to this, how can you still have the nerve to quibble? What you have done is already embarrassing enough. Are you still worried about losing face now? If you had known today, why would you have done it in the first place? If you were afraid of losing face, you wouldn't have done this." It’s something.”

Yu Wenting had long expected that Fang Yueru would not give in, and "thoughtfully" prepared another path for her.
