I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

Jiang Yuan walked up to Mother Cui and handed her the dowry list and other items in his hand, then turned around and looked at the people with different expressions.

"Mother Cui, I think my father is unwilling to return my dowry to me. Please go and report to the authorities for me."

Mother Cui bent down and agreed, "Yes, I'll go right away." After that, she turned around and walked out.

Father Jiang quickly stepped forward to stop the person, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, Madam."

Mother Cui stopped and looked at Father Jiang.

Aunt Qiu grabbed Father Jiang's arm and cried, "Master, no, we can't agree to this."

Jiang Wan also interrupted and said, "Yes, Dad, when you wrote the letter of guarantee, you were just a scholar with no money and no power. You must have been forced to write the letter of guarantee. It doesn't count, right, Dad? Speak."

After hearing what Jiang Wan said, Father Jiang's eyes lit up.

Before he could speak, Mother Cui spoke first, "Master Jiang, please discuss this in the court."

Jiang Yuan crossed his legs, holding the teacup in his left hand and the tea lid in his right hand, scraping the tea leaves.

Father Jiang looked at her and felt so angry that his teeth were itching.

"Give it to her." When Jiang's father said these two words, his back teeth were about to break and his whole body was trembling. If looks could kill, Jiang Yuan would probably turn into a mess.

With a click, the tea lid fell onto the tea bowl, "Okay, come here, follow the new wife of the Jiang Mansion to the warehouse and move the things out.

Thank you, Madam Cui and Master He, for helping me to count the money. It is better for us to calculate it in person to avoid any arguments later."

Aunt Qiu slid to the ground, her face as pale as death.

A dozen guards came forward, and Mother Cui walked up to Aunt Qiu and said to her, "Madam, please."

More than a dozen people left in a mighty manner.

Jiang Yuan slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, right, my grandmother still has my mother's things. Zhishu, Luzhu, come with me, let's go get them."

"Yes." Zhishu was a maid in the Marquis's mansion. The Marquis and the eldest princess were of noble status and their household management was very strict. She had never seen such dirty things.

When Jiang Yuan moved to the Marquis' Mansion, the two of them came to serve Jiang Yuan. After a few days of getting along with him, they all knew that Miss Jiang was very friendly and kind, and she treated the servants around her very well.

But they knew a little about how she was treated at home, from listening to Lu Zhu's occasional complaints and from careful enquiry. Now that they had seen it with their own eyes, they were really pissed off.

Mo Hua and Chun Zhi stayed beside Mother Cui, waiting for the things to be moved in and checking them one by one.

Jiang Yuan led his men out of the front hall and headed towards the old lady's yard.

The old lady sitting in the seat hadn't figured out what was happening yet. She waited until Jiang Yuan walked out before she came to her senses. She leaned on her crutches and tremblingly chased after Jiang Yuan. Mother Cui glanced at her sideways but didn't stop her.

Relying on his memory, Jiang Yuan knew that there was a pure gold statue of Bodhisattva in the old lady's Buddhist temple, which was made of 500 taels of gold from the Yun family.

One tael of gold equals ten taels of silver. Jiang's father is now a fourth-rank official with a monthly salary of twenty-four shi. Here, one shi is about 10 dou, which is about one tael and eight qian, or 1800 wen. Therefore, Jiang's father's monthly salary is about forty-three taels and two qian.

The court did not pay salaries entirely in silver. Food, coal, etc. were all converted into silver and combined and paid out together.

In the season when heating is needed, some silver and some coal will be distributed.

When the new grain arrives, some of it will be distributed as silver, some as grain, and so on.

This Buddha statue made of five hundred taels of gold would take Jiang's father more than ten years to build without food or drink, given his salary.

Jiang Yuan entered the Buddhist hall and immediately saw the Buddha statue placed in the middle. He walked forward and picked it up with both hands, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's so heavy." This Buddha statue weighs fifty kilograms.

Holding the Buddha statue in my arms, I turned around and saw my grandmother’s face twisted with heartache and anger.

"Grandmother, when people worship the Bodhisattva, they pray for their sons to have a successful career, a peaceful family, and harmonious descendants. But you used my mother's dowry to build this Bodhisattva statue. What are you praying for? Praying for my mother to die quickly, and for her children to die quickly.

Haha, grandma, what on earth are you thinking about?

Is this your silver? Does it listen to you? It's really interesting. You pray to the gods but your heart is not sincere. It's no wonder that your family is in turmoil and your old age is ruined."

“You, you, you, I…” Grandmother rolled her eyes and fainted from anger. This time she really fainted. Of course, it is also possible that she fainted from heartache.

"Madam, madam, go call the doctor." The three maids serving her were unable to support the fainted fat old lady, and they all fell to the ground with her.

Jiang Yuan walked over and stepped over her. When he left, he glanced back and called her "waste."

After carrying the Buddha statue out of the yard, he handed it to the guard following him and shook his arms.

The guard took the Buddha statue and shrugged because it was so heavy. His eyes widened. He didn't expect it to be so heavy. How much silver would it cost?

Before he entered the front hall, he saw boxes all over the yard and heard Aunt Qiu crying from inside, "Master, there is a thief in the house. A lot of things were stolen from the warehouse. There is a thief. Report it to the police. Report it to the police."

Jiang Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud. Zhishu and Luzhu behind him looked at each other. What happened?

"Hey, what's going on?" With a joking tone, he walked into the front hall and saw Aunt Qiu sitting on the ground, hugging Father Jiang's thigh, crying without any image.

Jiang Wan was beside her, holding her father's arm and shaking it non-stop, "Dad, you have to believe Mom, there must be a thief, there must be one, you have to investigate thoroughly, don't wrong Mom."

Jiang Hao finally spoke up and knelt in front of Jiang's father, pleading for Aunt Qiu. The entire front hall was in chaos. Not to mention Jiang's father, even the people who were listening on the side couldn't help but frown and make a fuss.

When Jiang Yuan's voice was heard, the noise in the room quieted down.

Mother Cui rolled her eyes and said, "Girl, all the things in the warehouse have been moved out. When compared with the dowry list, only one-third of them match.

The shop's deeds are complete, all here."

Jiang Yuan glared at them and said coldly, "It's only been a few years, and you have wasted only one third of my mother's dowry.

Dad, what about the promise you made? Did a dog eat it? How dare you use my mother's money and bully her?

Dad, you are a scholar, don't you look down on my mother because she is from a merchant family and has a lot of money? When you spent her money, why didn't you feel that the money had a lot of money? "

"Mother Cui, please calculate the specific price of the missing part according to the market price. Please sign an IOU, Mr. Jiang."

After saying that, Jiang Yuan flicked his sleeves and left with the maid. Mother Cui would take care of the rest.

She couldn't stay there any longer because she was losing control of herself and wanted to kill someone.
