Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

One silver note is worth one hundred taels, and fifty thousand taels means five hundred one-hundred-tael notes, a thick bundle.

Gu Zhao looked surprised.

Although she had already been wealthy for a long time, in the eyes of the Gu family, she only had one or two thousand taels of silver at most. Seeing the 50,000 taels of silver notes now, they must be shocked.

Cuihua held the box, her eyes full of joy. This was fifty thousand taels of silver, the eldest daughter's dowry, and they had to keep it safe from now on. They couldn't let anyone steal the money.

Gu Zhao sent Old Master Xie and Uncle Xie San to the second gate.

"Child, go back. Tell your grandfather if you have anything to say."

"Okay. Thanks, Grandpa."

Gu Zhao returned to his courtyard and asked Cuihua to put the things in the closet. Before, Gu Zhao had someone send in a big box, which was made of golden nanmu wood, and put a big box inside. It was a mechanism and was locked very tightly. If you don't know how to open the mechanism, you can't open the box, let alone take out the things inside.

After putting the things away, Gu Zhao went to look at the things in the warehouse again.

She had sent people to keep an eye on it before, and knew that the fake jewelry made by Gu Zhu in that jewelry shop would be delivered today.

Previously, Gu Zhu wanted to replace most of the gold jewelry in the dowry sent to Qin Hou Mansion with fake ones. Now she wanted to see how many fakes Zhu was going to make.

Zhu has already received the news, and the jewellery will be delivered today.

"Madam Zhu, why do I feel a little uneasy?" Zhu touched her chest and said nervously.

"Ma'am, don't be afraid. This thing has been around for so many years and no one has discovered it..."

After listening to Nanny Zhu's words of comfort, Zhu said.

"You're right. That little bitch Gu Zhao is getting more and more out of control. If these things get into her hands, it will be hard to get rid of them. So replace 80% of the dowry given to the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion. Also, the jewelry that Rong'er uses on a daily basis cannot be in vain. Let her pack those jewelry separately and bring them over after the wedding..."

Cuihua came to report.

"Miss, I have checked it out. Eighty percent of the second lady's dowry was replaced. Only twenty percent of your dowry was replaced..."

"Did you write down the list?"

"Already noted it down."

Gu Zhao knew that it was not that Gu Zhushi did not want to exchange, but that some of the things in it were difficult to exchange. Gu Zhushi had melted some jewelry before, but there were also some jewelry that had been passed down in the Xie family for many generations. Those were too eye-catching. And some jade jewelry could not be exchanged. There were also several sets of headgear that had always been managed by Old Madam Gu. If Zhushi wanted to exchange them, she had no chance.

Gu Zhu sent the list to the East Courtyard.

"Mother, on the day of your wedding, let Zhao'er and Rong'er bid farewell to the elders together in the main courtyard..."

Gu Zhu had already arranged everything. When the time came, they only needed to delay Nanny Yang and Cuihua for a while, and then they could replace the bride.

Hearing this, Madam Gu nodded.

"That's the rule. You and the second son's wife should handle these matters together..."

"Yes."

Gu Zhu looked at Mrs. Gu next to her and snorted in her heart. Although she was in charge of the affairs of the mansion in the past few years, the second brother's wife also took charge of some things. The person the mother-in-law trusted most was the second brother's wife. There were several times before that she was almost discovered.

When the grain and oil shop and the charcoal shop got into trouble this time, she was extremely anxious. She tried every possible way to find connections and was so anxious that she couldn't eat or sleep well every day.
