The mistress of the Hou family worked herself to death, and she did not serve after her rebirth

"Nonsense? I'm not talking nonsense. Why, have you forgotten how you knelt in front of me and said you wanted to go to the academy to study, but your mother-in-law wouldn't allow it, saying the Marquis's Mansion couldn't afford it.

Was it me who promised to support you and gave you the money from my dowry?

Oh, you're back now? Have you finished reading?

For five years, I paid one thousand taels every month to the escort agency. Could it be that you don't want to pay me back so you deliberately belittle me?

That won't do. Although I married into the Marquis's Mansion, those are my dowry money! You must pay it back."

As soon as Pei Jiuniang finished speaking, several gazes fell on Gu Pingting's face at the same time.

Her face flushed instantly, and she retorted, "Mrs. Pei Jiu, what nonsense are you talking about? You, you deliberately ruined the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion? Ruined my reputation? You have such a cruel heart?! Didn't I just say a few words to you that pissed off my mother?

Do you need to hold a grudge like this?"

Gu Pingting cried out of grievance. She was young, and her tears were sobbing.

Nature makes people feel compassion.

Several classmates stood by her side and comforted her without hesitation.

They all showed disdain and contempt for Pei Jiuniang.

"That's right. How can you slander someone? Pingting is a noble lady from the Marquisate. How could a Marquisate spend their daughter-in-law's dowry?"

Pei Jiuniang smiled coldly and said calmly, "If you refuse to pay, we can go to the escort agency to negotiate. I'll give them to you every month. They've made a lot of money from me. I don't want them. As for the gold hairpins and jewelry I gave you, forget it. But it's one thousand taels a month for five years, a total of sixty thousand taels. Not even a tael less."

After a pause, Pei Jiuniang glanced at the female students and said, "It is true that the mansion is a noble family, but what was it like five years ago? What is it like now? I think anyone with eyes can see it."

As she spoke, she looked up and saw the golden plaque that had faded five years ago and that she had repainted with her dowry. It was shining brightly and a little dazzling.

"By the way, even mother has admitted that she spent my dowry and has already made up for it. Even Gu Lanzhi has returned the things she took from me. It doesn't make sense for you to refuse to pay it back."

As she spoke, Pei Jiuniang still looked sullen.

The others were all stunned.

If it was Pei Jiuniang who deliberately lied, framed Gu Pingting and slandered her reputation.

But could she also slander the Marquis's Mansion?

Someone remembered something and whispered to the people around him, "I remember that five years ago, the Marquis' Mansion was indeed in ruins."

As he spoke, he raised his head and glanced at the glaring plaque.

The man nodded, "Speaking of which, Gu Pingting has indeed been spending money lavishly in recent years."

It is also because Gu Pingting is generous that everyone is willing to interact with her.

"I also remembered that Gu Pingting seemed to have someone looking for her every month. Now that I think about it, it does seem to be someone from the escort agency."

The voices of these people were neither loud nor soft, but they made Gu Pingting so angry that her face turned red.

She knew she couldn't keep denying it, so she started to yell, "I know, Pei Jiuniang, it turned out that you forced mother to pay back the money, which made her sick.

You usually pretend to be gentle and virtuous, but for a little money, you force your mother-in-law. "

"A little, not a little!"

Pei Jiuniang didn't wait for her to finish.

"Money, money, money. You are from the Pei family, but you always talk about money. You stink of money. No wonder my brother doesn't like you. He doesn't want to see you even after being married to you for five years."

Gu Pingting was forced to start talking without thinking.

"Yes, you are right. I like money. If you don't like it, just give me my money back."

Pei Jiuniang was not as helpless as she expected. She directly stretched out her hand to her, as if asking her to pay back the money immediately.

But where does she get the money?

Seeing that her classmates who used to fawn over her also began to look at her with contempt, she broke down.

"Don't worry, my mansion never owes anyone money. When my brother divorces you and marries Sister Wen Rong, I will pay you back double, no, triple?!"

"Hmm? You mean marrying Wen Rong?"

Pei Jiuniang raised her eyebrows slightly, seeming to be unable to understand.

Will I become rich if I marry Wen Rong?

Gu Pingting thought that the other party was frightened by her. She knew that Pei Jiuniang was reluctant to part with her brother, so she acted complacently and looked at Pei Jiuniang coldly.

"Yes, my brother didn't like you before. He always liked Wen Wan, but you killed her. However, Wen Rong is very similar to Wen Wan.

The key is that cousin Wen Rong is well-educated, filial to her mother, and kind to me.

Oh, you don't know yet, do you? Sister Wen Rong has opened many shops now, and you can buy the things in them even if you have money?

Forget it, I told you, you and I won’t understand. "

As she said this, Gu Pingting rolled her eyes.
