MTL - Transmigrated As Cannon Fodder To Marry-Chapter 26

"Young master, the people from the Hou's mansion are here to send the dowry."

Early in the morning, Chang An happily rushed into Zhaoyun Garden, knocking on the door to call Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin and Wei Yunzhao haven't woken up yet, Wei Yunzhao has to take care of his health, he goes to bed early and wakes up late every day, so he spends a long time in bed. Under his influence, Jiang Lin also started to stay in bed every day.

Jiang Lin, who was still a little sleepy at first, heard clearly what Chang An was yelling outside, and immediately performed a carp jerk, and sat up from the bed.

Putting on some clothes, Jiang Lin put on his shoes and ran to open the door, then met Chang An's excited face.

"Master, Master, a lot of dowries have been carried in a long row. I let them be placed in the front yard, and I will wait for you to count them, Master."

Jiang Lin was also very happy, he had been asking for this dowry ever since he came here, and it could be regarded as the result.

But he held it on his face, and even tapped Chang An on the head, "Go ahead and watch, I'll go after I change my clothes and have breakfast."

"Okay," Chang An responded happily, and then ran away erratically.

Jiang Lin closed the door and went back to the bed to share the good news with Wei Yunzhao. He couldn't suppress his joy in front of Wei Yunzhao, "From now on, I should be among the rich, right?"

Wei Yunzhao nodded cooperatively, "Sure."

"Hey," Jiang Lin laughed twice, then rubbed his hands to find his clothes.

"Although I don't think that woman Zhao Qiuru will be so honest, most of the things should be returned." Zhao Qiuru probably didn't have the face to get it back like the mask given to the queen, Jiang Lin could only say it's a pity .

"Go and see," Wei Yunzhao said, getting out of bed with his support.

Because he was in a hurry to count the dowry, he ate breakfast in a hurry, took a few mouthfuls and Jiang Lin pushed Wei Yunzhao to the front yard.

But I didn't expect someone to be more active than them. I heard Xiao Zhou's sharp voice from far away, "Oh, there are so many things. Bought it."

"Look at this jewelry, this emerald, and this box of white silver, it's all too dazzling."

"This gold hairpin is really pretty, Bai Xue, please plug it in for me. I heard that it is all made by famous craftsmen in the south of the Yangtze River. Most of them are only one piece, but they are all rare things."

When Xiao Zhou excitedly asked the maid to put the gold hairpin on her head, Jiang Lin pushed Wei Yunzhao and appeared at the door.

Little Zhou probably didn't expect them to come so soon, she was stunned for a moment, then pushed the golden hairpin into her hair, smiled and went up to greet Jiang Lin and the two, she warmly pulled Jiang Lin to him Introduced, "Nephew and daughter-in-law, here are all gold and silver jewelry, these boxes are all clothes and jewelry, and here, there are all high-quality ornaments, such as jade wishful vases, all of them. Nephew and daughter-in-law, your natal family can Really rich." Xiao Zhou's face was full of smiles, and she even changed her address to nephew and daughter-in-law.

Jiang Lin twitched the corners of his mouth, "The dowry sender hasn't been in for long, and Aunt Wu knows exactly which box contains what, it's really fast."

Jiang Lin's words meant something, but Xiao Zhou didn't seem to understand it, "No way, Fifth Aunt is watching for you, lest you suffer a loss, so many things, if you don't have an elder to watch How?"

"That's true. With so many things, they have to be moved to the yard and asked to be watched by someone."

Little Zhou nodded quickly, "That's right, Fifth Aunt is doing this for your own good."

"Well, why don't you move it to the fifth aunt's courtyard and ask the fifth aunt to look after it for me?"

Little Zhou nodded even faster, "Okay, okay, Fifth Aunt will definitely watch for you, and no one is allowed to move."

After she finished speaking, Jiang Lin looked at her with a smile that was not a smile, and Xiao Zhou finally realized that Jiang Lin was digging a hole for her to sarcasticly miss other people's dowry.

Xiao Zhou snorted immediately, and took a few steps away from Jiang Linyuan, "I don't know good people, so I deserve to be cheated into a dowry."

Jiang Lin glanced at her, said nothing, and reached out to ask the people in the Hou Mansion for a list.

The dowry was brought by the leader of the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion. He stepped forward to salute Jiang Lin, and instead of handing over the list, he handed over a letter, "Master, madam ordered you to read the dowry before accepting it. Looking at this letter, she said that you must agree to her request before this dowry can be given to you." Her attitude was a little arrogant, as if she was giving alms when delivering the letter.

Jiang Lin sneered, "The dowry has entered the door, how can I let you carry it away?"

The housekeeper said: "Madam ordered, she knows that she is not as good as you, but she is your elder after all, it is easy to do something, please think twice, young master."

"Okay, then let her come to me after thinking enough, anyway, I'm not the one who is worried now, right?" Jiang Lin spread his hands, with an expression of indifference.

He even wanted to push Wei Yunzhao away.

The housekeeper was in a hurry, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Jiang Lin, "Young master, if you have something to say, you can order the dowry first, and then read the letter." This attitude suddenly turned a corner.

Jiang Lin looked at the list that the housekeeper held in front of him with both hands, and thought it was funny. The housekeeper of the Hou Mansion started to show off his skills in front of a young master, Zhao Qiuru is really amazing.

Jiang Lin took the list, took out his dowry list, and led Chang An Baiji, Bai Wei and others to order it himself. Jiang Lin mainly looked at things. Over the years, Zhao Qiuru had given away many things from the dowry and resold them. Some of them were hard to get back after they got out. Jiang Lin wanted to know what she used as substitutes.

Jiang Lin picked out the ones that were different from what he remembered, and when the counting was over, three sets of the most expensive face masks were missing, and more than a dozen inferior products were selected, and the banknotes were still 50,000 taels short.

Jiang Lin looked at the housekeeper, "Bring me the letter."

The housekeeper hurriedly delivered it, Jiang Lin took it and unfolded it, the content was quite long, the first part was about the whereabouts of those sets that hadn't been delivered, one set was dedicated to the queen, which was the set Jiang Lin had seen before; Concubine Su, Zhao Qiuru's eldest son was accompanying the fourth prince born to Concubine Su.

Concubine Su has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son is the second prince, who is one of the prince's strong opponents for the throne. The second son is the fourth prince, who is two or three years younger than the prince. Not only can he help his brother, but he also has a chance to get the throne.

The remaining daughter is the eldest princess. Emperor Changde began to miss his daughter when he had more sons, so this princess was deeply loved by Emperor Changde when she was born. She was given the title of Fu Hui at a young age, and she is the only one in Dai Viet today. A titled princess.

Concubine Su's lineage is gaining momentum, and she is a popular candidate for the throne.

The crown prince is a well-known and well-known prince, and he is also a popular candidate. Jiang Lin smiled, his son was the companion, and the daughter was the crown prince. He bet on both sides, and Zhao Qiuru was not afraid of splitting.

The last remaining set was given by Zhao Qiuru to her niece as a dowry. It is said that she went out of town with her husband and could not come back temporarily, so she couldn't get it for the time being, and she would return it when he came back.

After explaining the three sets of heads and whereabouts, he began to beg Jiang Lin to give Jiang Jinyue an antidote, and talked about brother-sister relationship and blood relationship, which made Jiang Lin feel sick.

As for the replaced defective products and the missing 50,000 taels of banknotes, they never mentioned it.

Jiang Linzai tore up the letter directly, and said to the shocked housekeeper: "Go back and tell your wife, I don't believe her words, ask her to return the third set of hoods, or she will wait for Jiang Jinyue to wear them later, and I will cut them off directly. Jiang Jinyue's head."

Jiang Lin pointed to the defective products he had selected on the ground, "Bring these things back, I just want the original dowry. Tomorrow, I will send it along with the head and the missing 50,000 taels of silver note. I will give Jiang Jinyue the antidote."

Ever since Jiang Jinyue's face was covered with pustules, several doctors have been invited in a row, and there have been rumors of her disfigurement outside, but none of the doctors can make her face better.

According to Chang An's inquiries from servants who had a good relationship with the Hou Mansion, not only was it useless, Jiang Jinyue's face began to rot.

Zhao Qiuru, who originally planned to pack up the dowry slowly, saw that something was wrong, and immediately became anxious, hurriedly went back to her mother's house, and then went shopping again, no, she sent the dowry to Wei's house the next day.

The housekeeper was very embarrassed, and persuaded him: "Master, why are you doing this? Miss is your younger sister. If Lord Hou finds out that you have plotted against your own sister for a little dowry, Lord Hou will be unhappy."

Jiang Lin stared at the housekeeper for a moment, then smiled, "What does Jiang Jinyue's bad face have to do with me?" What's more, it has nothing to do with him if Anyang Hou Gao is unhappy.

Butler: "But young master, you just said that you will bring something tomorrow to get the antidote." The butler's idea is very simple. Doctors can't cure it, but Jiang Lin has the antidote. Doesn't it mean that he poisoned the eldest lady?

Jiang Lin: "You don't need to come to get it. I can have the antidote, so naturally I don't have it."

Jiang Lin stretched out his hand and pointed at the door, "See off the guests!"

The butler's face trembled, and he immediately understood what Jiang Lin meant. If he wanted an antidote, he couldn't say that he was responsible for the poison.

The butler thought of his wife's orders before he came here, and he was a little unwilling, and tried to struggle, "The young master used to be the most fond of the marquis to praise you, why are you so stiff with the madam and the young lady? If the young master takes a step back, the madam will definitely In front of Lord Hou, speak well for the young master. Then Lord Hou will definitely look at you differently, and will be satisfied."

Jiang Lin's eyes showed indifference, "You can go back and tell your Lord Hou that I, Jiang Lin, have no father since the day I got married."

"So, you can get out too," Jiang Lin pointed at the door again, a little more sharply than before.

Chang An stood up to see off the guests with a wink, but the housekeeper was surprised by Jiang Lin's reaction, annoyed that he hadn't completed what his wife told him, and finally left the Wei Mansion full of resentment.

As soon as the people from the Hou's Mansion left, the little Zhou family said, "Nephew and daughter-in-law, even a servant from the Hou's Mansion dares to talk to you like that. It seems that you are not doing well in the Hou's Mansion."

Jiang Linhui: "If life is good, why would you marry into Wei's family, fifth aunt, are you right?"

Xiao Zhou pulled her face down, "What do you mean by that, that you look down on the Wei family?"

Jiang Lin just smiled and said nothing.

Little Zhou became even more angry, and immediately turned to Wei Yunzhao, "Yunzhao, listen to what he said, he looks down on the Wei family so much, why don't you hurry up and discipline him."

Wei Yunzhao raised his eyes, "Fifth Aunt, is there anything in the Wei family that you can look up to?"

"I... the Wei family are the heroes of Dayue. They have fought in the battlefield for so many years and made great contributions to Dayue. They have produced so many famous generals, which one is not to be looked down upon." Xiao Zhou said very proudly.

Wei Yunzhao poured a basin of cold water, "Fifth Aunt, that was the past, not the present."

"The current Wei family is nothing."

He is rational, calm, and sober, which makes people feel distressed.

Little Zhou opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't make a sound for a long time.

When Wei Yunzhao opened his mouth, Jiang Lin stopped talking to Mrs. Zhou, and ordered Chang An and others to carry the things to Zhaoyun Garden.

"Wait!"

As a result, just after moving a box, a voice came from outside.

Jiang Lin looked at the door and saw Mrs. Wei leading the female family members of the Wei family.

"Tsk," the money really touches people's hearts. Earlier, he and Wei Yunjia went to a banquet, and no one came to ask about such a thing. Today, the dowry was brought to the door, and it was all poured out.

Madam Wei asked Jiang Lin when she entered the door, "What are you going to do with these things?"

"Ah?" Jiang Lin was puzzled for a moment, "What else can I do with the dowry? Of course, I put it away and use it slowly."

Mrs. Wei said: "The Wei family is no better than before. Now that you have entered the Wei family and presided over Zhongfu, you should understand what I mean."

Jiang Lin really understood, "The old lady asked me to take out the dowry to support you."

Jiang Lin poked Wei Yunzhao's shoulder with his finger, "Since when did your family have this rule, have all the dowry of your mother and your aunts been used up?"

Wei Yunzhao was expressionless, "I don't know, please ask grandma to be strict."

Mrs. Wei snorted coldly, "I used to be in charge of the affairs of the mansion, and the expenses of the family have always been paid out of my dowry. Now that there is a new person in charge, it is natural for him to pay for it."

Wei Yunzhao frowned, looking unhappy, "I remember grandfather's salary, father's salary and several uncles' salary, as well as my salary and court rewards were all given directly to the family. The Wei family has several shops in Shengjing Well, there is also a Zhuangzi outside the city, and all these incomes are enough to support the family, and even have some spare money. I don’t know how rich the family is, and they need to use the grandmother’s dowry?”

Jiang Lin immediately called Chang An's name and asked him to go but ask the accountant in the mansion to come, and remember to bring all the previous account books.

Mrs. Wei was refuted by Wei Yunzhao in public, and her face was long, she was very unhappy, "Why, are you going to interrogate me? Do you think I was greedy for the money in the house?"

"Grandson doesn't dare. When the accountant comes, he will find out where he is after checking the account. Grandma doesn't need to worry." Wei Yunzhao said.

Mrs. Wei: "That's enough! Now you only believe in the words of this funeral star, and you don't even have my grandmother in your eyes. Since you are determined to protect him, what's the point of me saying anything? Since he is reluctant to part with his little dowry , the big deal is to tighten your belt and live life, no one will force him."

He said it in a high-sounding way, and wanted to leave after he finished speaking.

Jiang Lin was the first to block the door, "Why is the old lady so anxious? The old lady is only thinking about the Wei family, and she has almost embezzled her own dowry. Why do we need to know where the money is spent and how much it benefits us? Thank you very much, Mrs.

He was full of smiles, and his eyes focused on Mrs. Wei. Mrs. Wei felt as if she had been seen through, and she did not dare to look at Jiang Lin.

The accountant came soon, and the account book was also brought over. Jiang Lin showed Wei Yunzhao that the first payment was recorded clearly, but Wei An's name was on it every few days, at least one or two each time. , as many as a few hundred taels, and even thousands of dollars.

From the book's point of view, Wei An's spending alone can be worth the combined spending of other people in the mansion.

Jiang Lin briefly counted the names of Wei An above him, and looked at Mrs. Wei, with a deeper smile on his face, "The old lady raised her son really well." Jiang Lin bit the word son very hard.

It was obvious who the dowry was for.

As soon as Jiang Lin sent someone to hire the accountant, Mrs. Wei knew that something was going to happen. She stared at Jiang Lin and cursed angrily in her heart.

She also regretted that she should have said hello to the accountant at the beginning, some accounts don't need to be as clear as notes one by one.

When Mrs. Wei was expressing her dissatisfaction with Jiang Lin, Wei Yunzhao said, "Grandmother wants Jiang Lin to be a nephew and daughter-in-law, and use the dowry to support her husband's uncle?"

"Grandmother, how shameless is Fifth Uncle?"

The author has something to say: on the return journey today, there is not much time for coding, and more will be done tomorrow.
