Furthermore, I am definitely right. Even if I really miss the generous dowry of someone else’s daughter-in-law, someone must take the initiative to shoulder the blame.

Xiao·Take the initiative·Take the blame·Jinren was stunned for a moment, then his face turned gloomy. He almost gritted his back molars and said word by word: "Xu Cifu really taught a good girl with sharp teeth, and Xiao really admires her!"

"My father is naturally a good official for the country and the people. It is not surprising that he is admired by Master Xiao." Xu Yixuan seemed to have not heard Xiao Jinren's sarcasm, nodding her head in agreement.

Then, Xu Yixuan turned her head and softly called Bai Lu who was standing aside. Although Bai Lu was a little hesitant, she still handed over the dowry list that she had carefully hidden in her arms.

"Master Xiao, this is the list of the little girl's dowry. Please take a look at it. The little girl was in the countryside before and heard that although she is now recuperating, due to the wars and various natural disasters, the national treasury is empty. The little girl wishes I will give you all my dowry money, and I just hope that I can be extra kind and pardon the death penalty of the Zhenguo Duke."

After saying that, Xu Yixuan bowed to Xiao Jinren Yingying.

Xiao Jinren took the dowry list from Bai Lu and couldn't help but sneer in her heart. The little girl in front of her who wanted him to be blamed just now was really naive.

It is true that in Dongqi there is a saying of "breaking sin silver". It means to give money to reduce the punishment of the crime. Not to mention "collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country", a major crime that implicated the nine tribes, was not within the scope of the "criminal silver" reduction. Even if the crime could be redeemed with silver, it would still be a large amount of silver, and it would be necessary to sell the iron.

Xiao Jinren casually glanced at the booklet in his hand, and his eyes widened immediately with a horrified look on his face: My dear, a full one hundred thousand taels of gold?

Even if gold has become less valuable in recent years, these one hundred thousand taels of gold can still be exchanged for nearly one million taels of silver. If you include others... there are so many?

Xiao Jinren couldn't help but glance at Xu Yixuan, but in an instant she thought of Xu Cifu.

good very good! Unexpectedly, I had an unexpected harvest today, catching a fat and oily giant borer!

"Master Xiao, these one hundred thousand taels of gold are the dowry my mother Shen left for me during her lifetime. As for the rest, in addition to the betrothal gift from the Zhenguo Palace, there is also the dowry prepared for me by my natal family, the Xu family." Xu Yixuan seemed to He did not see the greed flashing in Xiao Jinren's eyes, and continued unhurriedly, "The little girl's dowry has just been brought into the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, and it has not yet been opened. Master Xiao can just move it away. "

And when Xu Yixuan said this one hundred thousand taels of gold, Xiao Jinren was not the only one who was shocked.

The old lady, who was originally a little dissatisfied with Xu Yixuan, her grandson's daughter-in-law, immediately trembled, held Xu Yixuan in her arms, and said softly with relief: "Good boy, I have wronged you. If you look back, if this brat like Brother Yu... If I dare to bully you, tell the old lady. The old lady will take care of him personally."

"Thank you, ancestor, this is what a grandson-in-law should do." Xu Yixuan blushed slightly and lowered her head "shyly".

As for the ones on the side, before they could leave, the colleagues who came to watch the wedding felt more and more sad in their hearts: It's a hundred thousand taels of gold. If only I had known this earlier, it would have been cheaper for me. What a pity, what a pity...

Xiao Jinren cleared her throat and signaled to the imperial guards below to continue ransacking the house. On the other hand, she quickly picked out a group of cronies to quickly carry the dowry that Xu Yixuan had handed over on her own initiative into the car and transport it back.

For fear of making mistakes, Xiao Jinren only randomly inspected two boxes and did not open the boxes one by one for inspection. After all, those large wooden boxes were all sealed with Xu Cifu's private seal and had not yet been opened.
