After rebirth and marriage, the sick prince is fine again
Chapter 2 Counting the Dowry
Two days later, Rong sent someone to say that the dowry had been counted out of the warehouse and asked Su Jinhua to go and take a look.
When the group arrived at the warehouse, Mrs. Qin beside Rong had been waiting for a long time.
Mother Qin bowed, took out the key and opened the first lock, and then the accountant who was in charge of the warehouse opened the second lock.
The accountant replied, "Miss, the things you want to count are all here. This is the dowry list that the Ji family sent that year. Please take a look at it, Miss!"
Su Jinhua took it and looked at it, and almost laughed out loud.
The things recorded on the list were either dry fields or scrap metal. I guess they didn't think it was real enough, so I added some slightly more decent things.
The way Rong eats is really ugly.
Su Jinhua didn't say anything, but handed the list to Banxia and the others: "You guys go and count it."
After a while, Banxia and others came back.
Mother Qin sneered in her heart, but appeared respectful on the surface: "Miss, is there anything wrong?"
Su Jinhua nodded: "They all match. Thank you Madam for keeping it for all these years. I'll keep this list."
Mother Qin responded with a smile: "These were originally given to the eldest girl to take away. It's okay for you to keep them."
Su Jinhua turned around and ordered, "Then make another copy, so as not to mix up the accounts."
Keep a clear account of the accounts, and then your daughter can make a fuss with justification.
After they left, Mother Qin couldn't help but spit. It was really the Madam's thoughtful arrangements that those valuable things had already been given to the Second Young Lady. How could she have the nerve to count such a shabby dowry?
Time flies and it is already the eighth day of the first lunar month, two days before the wedding.
Looking at Su Ziyu's happy expression, Su Jinhua felt calm.
She knew very well that the Marquis' Mansion was a tiger's den, but it was not a narrow escape from the Shu Road, so there was still hope.
For example, Gu Yanan.
In his previous life, Gu Yanan became disabled because he joined the army secretly. He was proud and did not want to rely on his family background to get everything. He also knew that the eldest princess would not let him go, so he took advantage of the wedding to escape.
If she couldn't stop him from leaving in this life, she would have to put everything on the eldest princess.
As long as she respects the Crown Prince, does not despise his disability, and manages the Marquis' Mansion carefully, she believes that the Princess will not be moved, and the power of the Marquis' Mansion's housekeeper will inevitably fall into her hands.
Now she only hoped for one thing.
Some time ago, she had written a letter and asked someone to look for her uncle's family.
According to the reply in the letter, my uncle will arrive today or tomorrow.
Just as she was looking forward to it, Banxia came in quickly: "Miss, your uncle has arrived and is chatting with you in the front yard."
Su Jinhua stood up suddenly, his uncle is here!
The opportunity came at the perfect time. The wedding was approaching, and Su Yuandong was very concerned about his reputation, so getting the dowry back would be twice as easy as getting it back.
"Go and have a look!"
I hurried to the front yard, and when I was halfway there, I saw Mother Qin and several maids and old women rushing towards this side.
Su Jinhua knew they were definitely coming towards them, so she said to Banxia, "Go and lead them away."
Rong swallowed up her mother's dowry. Now her uncle came in person and the wedding was imminent. She must feel guilty. Even if her uncle was not after the dowry, he would find a way to stop her from meeting him.
Banxia immediately understood and ran to the other side, shouting, "Miss, wait for me for a moment."
Sure enough, when Mother Qin heard the noise, she immediately ordered the servants behind her: "The eldest lady is there, hurry up and chase her."
A group of maids and old women chased in that direction.
In order to avoid meeting Rong’s people on the road again, Su Jinhua took the small road.
"Father, Madam, I heard that my uncle has arrived. Can you let me in to meet him?"
Su Jinhua deliberately stood outside the door and shouted loudly inside, saying that everyone here was from the Rong family and they didn't know how long they would have to wait for the notification.
When Rong heard Su Jinhua's voice, her face darkened. What on earth was Mother Qin doing without stopping this little bitch?
Just when he was about to signal his servants to stop her, Ji Haichao stood up excitedly: "Jinhua, my niece." His eyes were moist.
Su Jinhua took two quick steps to salute, but was stopped by Ji Haichao, choking up a little; "You look so much like your mother!"
After asking a few questions with concern, he turned to look at Su Yuandong: "Brother-in-law has raised Jinhua very well. Brother-in-law has done his best."
Su Yuandong smiled and said, "Jinhua is my eldest daughter. Hai Rushi and I have high hopes for her, and it is our duty to educate her."
After talking for a while, Ji Haichao started the conversation: "Brother-in-law, since Jinhua Ye is getting married soon, I have something to ask you. Has your sister's dowry been counted? Should Jinhua take it all with her?"
Su Yuandong said confidently: "I heard from Rong that it was already done a few days ago."
Rong smiled and said, "Please rest assured, uncle. I have already handed over all of my sister's dowry to Jinhua."
Ji Haichao glanced at Su Jinhua and took out a piece of paper from his arms: "If that's the case, then I'm relieved. This is your mother's dowry list. You should keep it well as a souvenir."
Rong's face suddenly darkened. She didn't expect that this thing was still preserved.
"My uncle, what's the point of doing this? There's already one in the mansion, why do you need to do this?"
"Just think about it."
Su Jinhua took a look at it and was very surprised: "These things don't match what the madam gave me."
As he said this, he took out the fake dowry list he had brought with him and said, "Father, uncle, please look, this is the list that Madam gave me a few days ago."
Ji Haichao had already guessed that the dowry had been embezzled, but when he saw the items on the fake list, he glared at Su Yuandong and said, "Brother-in-law, when my sister married you, she almost emptied out most of the family property, and now these are all she has left? Does that mean your Su family needs women to have what it has today?"
Su Yuandong was shocked. He immediately looked at the two lists and knew what was going on. He turned around and shouted at Rong Shi: "Rong Shi, who gave you the courage!"
Rong was so frightened that she was at a loss for words and could only cry and beg for mercy: "Master, please calm down. My sister's dowry is a bit old and I'm afraid Jinhua will squander it, so I'm just..."
Su Ziyu, who had been behind the door, ran out and blocked Rong's way: "Father, mother didn't do anything wrong. Why are you so angry?"
Su Jinhua said calmly, "Father, I am going to marry into the Marquis's Mansion. If such a shabby dowry is seen, it doesn't matter if I suffer a little injustice, but I am afraid that your official career will be affected."
Su Yuandong is a person who values face and career. Now that he has made such a fuss, his face has become even uglier: "Only the most useless men in the world would ask for a woman's dowry. You have ruined my whole life."
Su Ziyou looked at Rong and wiped away her tears: "However, whatever your sister needs will be paid from my dowry. Please don't blame mother anymore."
Su Jinhua sneered and said coldly, "From your dowry? Is it possible that the things in it originally belonged to me?"
Su Ziyou gritted her teeth, thinking of the future wife of the third place in the imperial examination or the wife of a noble title, and she made up her mind to give it up: "Mother, let's just give it back to my sister."
Rong said reluctantly with tears in her eyes: "Okay."
