All the people in the Hou Mansion are evil, and they will be repaid tenfold after rebirth

"Okay, since you said so, I won't insist anymore. But Yundi, you must promise me that we must find a solution as soon as possible and cannot rely on this dowry for a long time." Although Jiang Jilian's words were gentle, there was still a hint of determination in his eyes.

Lu Yundi nodded slightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "I will do my best to find a solution with you."

The two of them sat in silence, and the atmosphere gradually became heavy.

Jiang Jilian turned and walked to the window, looking at the starry night sky outside, feeling extremely reluctant to leave.

These banknotes and jewels were a considerable fortune for the Zhenxing Marquisate. In this time of financial crisis, this dowry would undoubtedly help them out of their immediate need.

"Ji Lian, you actually can't bear to let go, right?" Lu Yundi suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

Jiang Jilian was slightly stunned, turned his head, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, trying to hide his inner reluctance: "Madam, as the Marquis of Zhenxing, I naturally cannot accept the favor of others for nothing. But I will use this money wisely and ensure that every penny can bring the greatest benefit to the Marquis' Mansion."

Although Jiang Jilian's words were firm, his eyes revealed his inner struggle. Lu Yundi looked at him with eyes full of understanding and concern.

"I know, Ji Lian, that you have always put the honor and interests of the Marquis' Mansion first. But you also know that this dowry is not just a fortune, it also represents the support and trust of our family." Lu Yundi said softly, with an unquestionable firmness in his tone.

Jiang Jilian was silent for a moment, he took a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions. He slowly walked to Lu Yundi and gently held her hand: "Yundi, I understand what you mean. This dowry is indeed of great significance to us. I will use it properly and not let it go to waste."

As soon as Jiang Jilian finished speaking, he gently stroked the back of Lu Yundi's hand, with a deep tenderness in his eyes.

The lady was willing to give this generous gift for him and the Marquis's Mansion. How could he let her kindness go to waste?

"Ji Lian, are you willing to listen to my thoughts?" Lu Yundi looked up at Jiang Ji Lian, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

"Of course, Yundi, I am willing to listen to every word you say." Jiang Jilian responded gently.

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, she gently took Jiang Jilian's hand, walked to the table and sat down.

"You see, if we can invest these dowries into these projects, it will not only solve the current financial crisis, but also lay a solid foundation for the future of the Marquis' Mansion." Lu Yundi said confidently.

Jiang Jilian listened attentively, with a gleam of admiration in his eyes. He had not expected his wife to have such a unique insight, and his reluctance was gradually replaced by anticipation.

"Yun Di, your plan is very good. I was indeed short-sighted before. We should make full use of these resources to pave the way for the future of the Marquis' Mansion." Jiang Jilian said excitedly.

……

the other side.

"Give me back my six hundred taels of silver!" Jiang Lili said, and pounced directly on her father Jiang Jilian's follower Jiang Ren, scratching and biting him randomly. She looked cruel and crazy.

Jiang Jilian looked at his daughter Jiang Lili's crazy look, feeling both pain and helplessness in his heart. He hurried forward, hugged Jiang Lili tightly, and whispered to comfort her: "Lili, calm down. Your father has realized his mistake. We are here to apologize to you today."

Jiang Lili struggled, tears rolling down her cheeks. She stared at Jiang Ren, her eyes full of hatred and anger: "Jiang Ren, why did you do this to me? What did I do wrong?"

Jiang Ren stood aside, looking pale. He lowered his head, unable to look directly into Jiang Lili's resentful eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms, but he still couldn't suppress the guilt and fear in his heart.

Xiang Zhu looked at this scene and felt bad. She walked forward and comforted Jiang Lili softly, "Miss, Jiang Ren made an unintentional mistake. He didn't mean it."

"Unintentional mistake? Then who hurt my face like this? Who caused my pain?" Jiang Lili became even more agitated. She pushed Jiang Jilian away and pointed at Jiang Ren. "Look at him. He looks so guilty. He did it on purpose! He is hurting me!"

Jiang Ren raised his head, his eyes flashing with pain and regret. He opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but in the end he didn't utter a word.

Lu Yundi sat aside, watching all this, feeling extremely guilty.

All this was because of her momentary negligence, which caused Jiang Lili to be hurt. She slowly stood up, walked in front of Jiang Lili, and bowed deeply: "Lili, it's mother's fault. Mother apologizes to you."

Jiang Lili looked at Lu Yundi, with a hint of complicated emotions in her eyes, but she quickly restrained her emotions and said coldly: "Mother, you don't have to apologize. All this is the result of your negligence. I don't blame you."

Tears welled up in Lu Yundi's eyes. She held Jiang Lili's hand tightly and said in a trembling voice, "Lili, mother was wrong. Mother will definitely make it up to you."

Jiang Jilian looked at his wife's tears and felt more guilty. He turned to Jiang Ren and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Ren, do you know what mistake you made?"

Jiang Ren raised his head, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he replied in a deep voice: "My Lord, I know that I have made an unforgivable mistake, and I am willing to accept any punishment."

Jiang Jilian's eyes revealed a hint of determination. He looked at Jiang Ren and said in a serious tone: "No punishment is enough to make up for your mistakes, but you must understand that your actions have caused irreversible consequences."

Jiang Ren gritted his teeth. No matter what kind of punishment he gave, it could not make up for the harm he had done to Jiang Lili. He lowered his head, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "My Lord, I am willing to atone for my sins with my life. I only ask that you forgive me."

Jiang Lili became even more emotional after hearing this. She screamed, "Atonement? Do you think your life can redeem my pain? I tell you, it's impossible! I will remember your crime for the rest of my life!"

Xiang Zhu was worried when he saw this, and whispered to Jiang Lili, "Miss, Jiang Ren already knows he was wrong, let's give him a chance to atone for his sins."

Jiang Lili stared at Xiang Zhu, her eyes full of doubt and confusion: "Xiang Zhu, do you also think I should forgive him?"

Xiang Zhu shook his head gently: "It's not about forgiveness, but about not continuing the mistakes of the past. Miss, your heart is full of hatred, which is also a torture for you. Let Jiang Ren atone for his sins, and also let you walk out of this shadow."

Jiang Lili was silent. She looked at Xiang Zhu with a flicker of hesitation in her eyes. But soon, her eyes became firm again: "I won't forgive him easily, but I will make him pay the price."
