The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape
Chapter 116 The wedding date is set
Madam Wen is not an ordinary person, she is very shrewd.
Butler Qian was a little worried. He cupped his hands and said, "Madam, I'm really sorry. My second master said that this gift list must be handed over to Miss Wen in person."
"Are you guys from the Qian family going too far?"
Madam Wen's face changed. It was obvious that he didn't trust her!
Madam Wen got angry immediately, but Butler Qian remained unmoved and just stood there without saying a word.
Just then, Master Wen got the news and hurried over.
"Mother, why are you so angry about such a small matter?"
Is this a trivial matter?
Old Madam Wen was very angry. She felt that this was clearly a sign of contempt.
Master Wen naturally understood, but he couldn't show it at this time, so he could only persuade: "Butler Qian, you don't know, my daughter has been weak since she was a child, and it's not very convenient for her to go out.
How about this, I'll have someone take Housekeeper Qian to the backyard, and you hand it over to her in person, how about that?"
Butler Qian frowned slightly, as if thinking about something. After a while, he replied, "In that case, why not let Master Wen hand it over to her personally?"
How could Butler Qian not see it? He knew that this was a way for him to save face. As long as he could ensure that the gift list could be smoothly handed over to the eldest lady, he would have successfully completed his task.
Master Wen felt a little relieved at this time. Fortunately, Butler Qian did not go in, otherwise he would not know where to put his face.
"The wedding will be held on the eighth day of next month. I think your Wen family should have no objection, right?"
"Of course, our Wen family has no objection."
Old Madam Wen was silently calculating the days in her mind. At most, there was only about a month left.
Although there was still plenty of time, she still felt a little regretful and thought she shouldn't have brought her back so early.
If she were to follow her own ideas, she would have wanted to marry her off tomorrow to avoid the annoyance of looking at her.
Now that things have been done, there is naturally no need for Butler Qian to stay here any longer.
After Butler Qian left, Master Wen immediately ordered his servants, "Come here! Hurry and move all the dowry to the eldest lady's yard."
When Old Madam Wen heard this, she was struck by lightning and said in disbelief, "Son, what do you mean?"
"Do you really want to send all these rare treasures over? Are you crazy?"
She was already dissatisfied with Wen Jinhua's affairs, but when she saw the generous betrothal gifts, her mood improved slightly.
If bringing her back could bring wealth to the Wen family, it would be a good thing.
But what is happening now?
She actually asked people to move all the things over there. What exactly did she want?
"Mother, I'm not crazy, but these things must be delivered to her yard." Master Wen knew his mother's thoughts very well. "This is what the Qian family repeatedly reminded me of. If it is not delivered to her, if the Qian family knows about it, do you think they will give up easily?"
"Mother, have you forgotten what happened to Mr. Wang's family in the past?"
How could she forget?
Back then, Mr. Wang’s family in Nanling also had an arranged marriage with the Qian family.
But who would have thought that Mr. Wang would change his mind halfway through, angering the Qian family.
Not long after, Wang Yuanwai and his family disappeared in Nanling as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth...
"This... isn't that serious, right? Maybe it's just an accident?" Old Madam Wen felt as if her heart was scratched by a cat, but she still held on to a glimmer of hope.
Master Wen ruthlessly crushed her fantasy, "Mother, you and I both know what's going on. Apart from the Qian family, who else in Nanling has such great ability?"
"These money are just small matters. Don't lose the lives of our Wen family for this little money."
What you said is true, but if you hadn't seen it it would be fine. But now you are seeing it with your own eyes, and it is right in front of you, and now you want people to move all of these away, isn't this digging into people's hearts?
Madam Wen felt very upset and said, "That won't work... just leave a small part?"
"Mother, it's not worth a penny. The gift list is right here. It doesn't matter how much you take."
Madam Wen was so angry that she almost passed out. "Forget it, just move out."
After Master Wen left, Wen Jinyu jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "Grandma, those betrothal gifts should have been mine. She stole my betrothal gifts. Why should I give them all to her now?"
After all, she was a daughter of an official family and had seen the world in Nanling. However, the betrothal gifts she had just received could no longer be measured in money.
She had never seen those valuable things.
And those fabrics feel as light and soft as clouds. If they are made into clothes, wearing them will definitely be as comfortable as walking on the clouds.
There are also those headwear styles that are very novel. I wonder how decent they would look if they were worn out.
"Then you...are you planning to accept the betrothal gift from the Qian family and then marry the Second Master Qian?"
Wen Jinyu shut her mouth immediately as if she was under a spell. Compared to so much money, she valued her life more.
After all, what's the point of having so much money if she loses her life?
However, when she thought that a country girl like her could receive such a huge betrothal gift, she felt mixed emotions.
"Grandma...are you just going to watch her take all these good things away?"
Old Madam Wen was naturally unwilling, but what could she do?
"You heard what your father said just now. Grandmother is powerless at this critical moment." Madam Wen comforted her, "Forget it, after she gets married, grandma will definitely choose a more wealthy marriage for you, which will definitely not be worse than hers."
Wen Jinyu was finally satisfied, but she was secretly thinking in her heart that since she couldn't get those things, she couldn't let her take them away.
In Xue Jinhua's courtyard, when the servants of the Wen family brought the betrothal gifts in, even though she had been a marquis's wife for several years and she herself had not yet married, and the Xue family was considered a well-known wealthy business family in Nanling, she was still shocked by the mountain of betrothal gifts in front of her.
Especially the fifty thousand taels of real gold and silver...
Xue Jinhua's heart trembled suddenly when she saw this, and she couldn't help but start to doubt deeply who this Mr. Qian, the man she married, was.
"These are the betrothal gifts sent by the Qian family. It is useless to keep them with me, so I will move them all to your yard. As for how to deal with them, you can decide for yourself. If you need any help, just let me know."
Xue Jinhua nodded and said calmly, "Thank you, Master Wen."
Seeing her so calm and collected, and even without a ripple when seeing such a huge amount of silver, Master Wen couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
I thought that since she was an innocent little girl, she would definitely frantically seek help, but I never expected that I miscalculated.
Mr. Wen felt a surge of anger in his heart, but thinking of the long-term interests, he suppressed it, exchanged a few words of greeting and left.
Sakura's jaw dropped in shock, "Miss, do all of these need to go into the warehouse?"
Xue Jinhua glanced at it nonchalantly and said, "Well, put them all in the warehouse and then move them away as dowry."
After checking everything, Yinghua said, "I thought the Wen family would leave some things behind, but I didn't expect them to all be sent here. This is really strange."
Xue Jinhua raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. It's not that the Wen family doesn't want to keep him, but they just don't dare to keep him, right?
In order to avoid the spotlight, Xue Jinhua never left her room except for going out in the yard during the day.
Similarly, she did not allow Sakura to go out, and only sent Qingyi out to gather information.
"Miss, the people from the Xue family have also arrived in Nanling." Qingyi said respectfully.
"Oh? Who is there?"
"The third son of the Xue family."
The setting sun in the evening is like a naughty child, clinging to the wall and refusing to leave.
Xue Jinhua flipped through the yellowed book and said, "The Xue family only sent him alone to Nanling. Aren't they afraid that something might happen to him?"
He is indeed very conceited.
However, conceited people often end up paying a heavy price for their actions.
