After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 247: Farce at the Door, Dowry Scheme
Xie and Xie Leihun did not expect Xiao Qian to be so vicious. He deliberately made a big deal out of it in order to target Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu was the eldest son of the Marquis's mansion. He was born clean and proud, and was also the child that Xie's family was most proud of...
But he didn't expect that just by exposing his father's deeds, he would be burdened with an infamy that is intolerable to the world!
Xie Leifeng was so angry that his fists were itching. He wanted to punch the two brothers of the Xiao family who had ulterior motives in the face, but was stopped by Rendong.
"Master, beating someone in front of so many people at this time makes us unreasonable even if we are right."
Hearing this, Xie Leifeng endured it again and again, with a gloomy face, and swallowed the anger reluctantly.
Xie suppressed her anger and asked Xiao Yuan, "What on earth can you do to let us, mother and son, go?"
Third Master Xiao Yuan raised his head, with greed in his triangular eyes, and said, "Sister-in-law, it would have been better if you had known better earlier."
"We brothers don't ask for much. As long as you leave the dowry, I won't stop you."
He finally told his purpose!
Xiao Yuan has always been greedy and fond of gambling, and the third room has always lived in poverty. Last time Xiao Ruoruo got into trouble, not only did he not stand up for his daughter, but he also shamelessly went to the homes of the two noble families who had an affair with Xiao Ruoruo to ask for money, but he was beaten out by them!
Face and dignity are not important to Xiao Yuan; he only cares about money!
Now that his elder brother was imprisoned in the Sky Prison, the entire Marquis' Mansion was in disarray. He had to get more silver before that happened. How could he let go of the fat piece of meat, Xie family?
His second brother said that Xie's dowry was not small, and together with the old lady's private treasury, it was enough for the two brothers to live a luxurious life for the rest of their lives.
At this time, Xie Leifeng had been patient again and again, but finally he could no longer bear it!
"Fuck your mother's fart!"
Xie Leihun was persuaded by Rendong not to hit anyone, but he finally spat in the face of the shameless Xiao Yuan.
"You people in Yong'an Marquis' Mansion have done so many evil things that you even want to covet the dowry. Do you really think that our Xie family is dead?"
Facing Xie Leifeng's eyes burning with anger, Xiao Yuan wiped the spit from his face and took a step back involuntarily.
None of the three brothers of the Xie family is easy to mess with. The eldest brother is good at calculating and is a smiling tiger, the second brother has a bad temper like thunder, and the third brother is as cunning as a fox. In the past, in Kyoto, the second brother Xie beat Xiao Yi so hard that he could not attend court for half a month, which Xiao Qian still remembers vividly...
Fortunately, the Xie family had already fallen, and fortunately this time the emperor restored the Xie family. Among the three brothers of the Xie family, only Xie Leifeng is in Kyoto.
It seemed that Xie Leifeng was about to raise his fist to hit someone, at this moment Xiao Qian, who had remained silent, stepped out to smooth things over.
"Thank you, Master. Don't get excited. Let's talk it over."
"Sister-in-law wants to divorce brother, and we didn't stop her. Letting sister-in-law keep the dowry is also for the good of the children. Grandma..."
"Xiao Yu is suing his biological father. Although the national law allows him, the family rules and clan laws cannot overcome him..."
"The Xiao family has strict rules. Xiao Yu did something so treasonous. How do you think he should be dealt with?"
Religious etiquette, clan membership, Xie has always been timid, and he couldn't help but shudder.
Xiao Qian closely observed Xie's expression, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He continued to increase the stakes and said, "Sister-in-law, you can take this divorce letter from more than ten years ago with Xiao Xuetang, but Xiao Yu is the eldest grandson of the eldest house recorded in the family tree of our Yong'an Marquis Mansion, and you can't take him away. Besides, Xiao Xuetang was just broken off by the third prince, and her marriage is uncertain. If she is expelled from the Xiao family and has a bad reputation of having an unknown biological father, even if the Xie family is revived in the future, with the support of the Xie family, what good fate can she have in Kyoto?"
It must be said that compared to Xiao Yuan who only knows how to shout, Xiao Qian is more shrewd and calculating, and every word he says is heart-piercing.
The pair of children are Xie’s weak spot.
Xie, who had been pretending to be calm, suddenly had red eyes. She looked helplessly at Xiao Yu, the child with a broken face who was supposed to be protected by her.
Xie couldn't make up her mind and subconsciously looked at Xiao Yu, but Xiao Yu also looked distraught.
Under the light of the big red lantern hanging under the eaves of Yong'an Marquis Mansion, Xiao Yu's face turned a pale white as if he had lost blood.
The ridicule and insults assaulted Xiao Yu's eardrums, and it seemed that everything had become bizarre at this moment.
Was Xiao Xuetang in the same situation back then?
No, at that time Xiao Xuetang’s situation might be even worse than his.
Even though he is now branded as unfilial, he has good friends like Lin Shaojin in the court who help him, and his mother and uncle protect him behind him.
In the previous life, Xiao Xuetang had nothing before and after him...
But what could Xiao Xuetang do at that time?
From how Xiao Yi designed Xiao Xuetang to get lost and let her fall into southern Xinjiang, to how Xiao Xuetang later crawled back to Kyoto from hell after a narrow escape, but the Marquis's Mansion sent Ye Jin to the palace again.
Even if Nanjiang hadn't fanned the flames behind the scenes at that time, the Yong'an Marquisate and Xiao Xuetang were already in an opposing position, and it was either you die or I live!
If Xiao Xuetang didn't deal with Xiao Yi, she would be the one who would be doomed...
Xiao Xuetang took the first step, but ended up in disgrace and being deserted by everyone.
Amidst the rumors and abuse, and the alienation between the Emperor and Empress Lin Shaoshu, he died before the age of twenty...
The previous life was a tragedy for everyone, and no one got what they wanted!
Perhaps Xiao Yu had been resentful towards Xiao Xuetang from the very beginning, blaming her for killing so many people.
Now, due to some strange circumstances, Xiao Yu is in Xiao Xuetang's shoes, experiencing everything that Xiao Xuetang experienced in her previous life, and increasingly understands Xiao Xuetang's difficulties back then...
At this time, Xie saw that Xiao Yu's soul seemed to be drained away. Xie was worried that Xiao Yu was already injured and had stayed in the prison for another night. If he couldn't get over it, he would be in trouble.
No matter how important the dowry is, it is nothing compared to the life of her child!
"I promise……"
Xie spoke these words very slowly and with great difficulty.
Xiao Qian looked at Changfang begging him desperately, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes!
Just because he was the second son, he was not eligible to inherit the title, and the wife he married had to be younger than Xiao Yi. Over the years, the second branch of the family could only beg for mercy under Xiao Yi.
But now, the situation has changed...
Xiao Yi was captured by government officials, the title of Yong'an Marquis was about to be stripped, and the eldest son's wife and children were separated, so naturally he wanted to take advantage of the chaos to gain some benefits.
Thinking of this, a hint of greed flashed in Xiao Qian's eyes, as well as a look of determination to win.
He knew that the eldest son would compromise!
Thinking of this, he cast a grateful look at the charming woman behind the crowd...
If it weren't for her brilliant plan, he wouldn't have been able to humiliate the eldest son's family in front of everyone today, intercept Xie's dowry and gain such a huge benefit!
Just when Xie was about to order people to leave the dowry behind with a gloomy look on her face, she suddenly heard someone shouting from below: "Look, it's Miss Xiao's carriage, Miss Xiao is back!"
