Chapter 115: Dowry controversy
Chapter 115 Dowry Disturbance
Lin Yonghe is counting Ningxi's dowry. Although it is not much, it is not an easy task to calculate everything clearly. Counting until her eyes hurt, she sighed and said, "Luzhu, make a pot of tea."
"Yes!" Luzhu brewed a pot of Tieguanyin, afraid that it would be too thick to fall asleep, so she only put some, "Madam, here."
Lin Yonghe took a sip, rubbed his brows and said: "What's wrong today, my eyelids are always twitching, I always feel like something is going to happen... Where is Ningxi? If you don't stay in the house, where are you going?" gone?"
Lu Zhu said: "I said I went to pay my respects to the old lady, I guess I stayed there for dinner!"
It is also good to be filial to the old lady. Lin Yonghe didn't say anything, but asked what Ma Guang was doing. Luzhu said that he was studying. Lin Yonghe was very relieved and asked Luzhu to boil some ginseng soup and send it to him.
Not long after, the gatekeeper's mother-in-law reported that the third lady had come.
Since Ning Yue suffered a serious illness, she has never been to her yard again. What kind of wind is blowing today that brought Ning Yue here?
Lin Yonghe suppressed the doubts in his heart, raised a smile, and welcomed Ning Yue into the back room.
While walking, Ning Yue took off the red cloak and put it in Qiuxiang's hand. Qiuxiang was about to hold it by herself when the little maid stepped forward and said sweetly, "Give it to me, sister."
Qiu Xiang smiled, and handed Ning Yue's red cloak to the little maid.
After the little maid hung up her cloak, she made a new pot of tea and presented a box of pastries and fruits.
Lin Yonghe kindly greeted Ning Yue to sit down, peeled an orange for her, and smiled more kindly than her own mother: "I haven't come for a long time, I think you and I have a birth share? Come, this is your favorite orange. "
My favorite orange is not in my house, but I can only see it in your house, which is really ironic.
Ning Yue waved her hand, said with a faint smile, "I just ate too much at the old lady's place, and I really can't swallow a single bite. Auntie can eat by herself."
Lin Yonghe understands that Ning Yue is not as easy to fool as before, and even after what Ning Xi did, Ning Yue may have secretly hated their mother and daughter, but we all live under the same roof, and we can't see each other when we look up. Don't pierce the window paper. Lin Yonghe put down the peeled oranges, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said softly: "You also went to see your grandmother, why didn't you come with your second sister?"
Ning Yue's almond-shaped eyes widened, and she said with a very surprised look: "Huh? The second sister left before dinner! Why? Has she not come back yet?"
As soon as Lin Yonghe heard this, he immediately realized something was wrong, but he couldn't express it in front of Ning Yue, so he said awkwardly: "Look at my memory, she said that she didn't understand some homework, and she wanted to ask your fourth brother for advice." , I forgot all of a sudden."
As soon as the voice fell, Lu Zhu opened the curtain and came in, "Ma'am, the fourth young master has rested, so the ginseng soup won't be boiled?" When Fu saw Ning Yue, he was stunned, and saluted, "Miss San."
Ning Yue smiled slightly.
Lin Yonghe was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole in the ground and get in.
Ning Yue didn't say anything sarcasm, she stood up and said, "Actually, I don't have anything special, but the old lady just gave me the key to the small storeroom. I'm inexperienced, so I want to ask my aunt to help me check my inventory. Mother's dowry."
Lin Yonghe could hardly believe his ears, what did Ning Yue say? Ask her to count Lin Lanzhi's dowry? Isn't that... giving her the opportunity in vain? That's almost half of the Lin family's property! Just moving a little fur is enough for Ning Xi to enjoy a good time in her in-law's house for a while!
Ning Yue had a panoramic view of Lin Yonghe's greedy expression, and couldn't help sneering, thinking that Lin Yonghe was so calm that he didn't do anything for a long time, so it turned out to be nothing more than that.
If one compares her mother's dowry to an egg, Lin Yonghe is a fly salivating over the egg. When the egg has no cracks, the fly can still keep calm, but once the egg cracks and the egg liquid flows out, the fly will Even at the risk of being photographed to death, I couldn't help but fly over and lick two mouthfuls!
This is the despicableness engraved in the blood!
It’s fine, I’ll let you lick it all tonight.
"I may not come at the right time, forget it, I'll go find my second aunt!" Ning Yue said, put on her cloak and went out.
Lin Yonghe even forgot to change his jacket, and hurriedly chased after Ning Yue: "No...it's not that my aunt doesn't want to help you...my aunt is afraid..."
Ning Yue interrupted her with an aggrieved expression on her face: "Are you afraid that I will hate my aunt because of the second sister? In my aunt's heart, am I such a person who can't distinguish between gratitude and resentment? Or is it true that my aunt did Are you sorry for me?"
"Of course I didn't!" Lin Yonghe denied without thinking. She looked at Ning Yue, and seeing that there was no trace of resentment in the other's eyes, she gradually believed in Ning Yue. It's just that Ning Yue and Ning Xi have become so deadlocked, even though she didn't take part in anything, she is Ning Xi's biological mother after all, so it's impossible for Ning Yue not to hate her...
"Yue'er is young, so she can't do wrong things and offend the second sister. In the past few days, Yue'er has figured it out, no matter how much she argues, she will be my sister. When I go to the palace in the future, the county king and I will have to rely on my sister , brother-in-law live, and I hope that my aunt will say a few words in front of my second sister, and forgive Yue'er for being ignorant."
Ning Yue's words dispelled the last trace of doubt in Lin Yonghe's heart. After a long time, it turned out that he was paving the way for himself. She just said, so what if you have money? After passing through the door, it's not just for Ning Xi to kowtow to admit his mistake!
Lin Yonghe went proudly.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and she sneezed, only to realize that she was wearing a thin jacket indoors.
Ning Yue hurriedly took off her red cloak, and said flatteringly, "Put it on, Auntie, be careful not to catch a cold."
Count your senses! Know that only I can help you speak up in front of Ning Xi!
Lin Yonghe enjoyed Ning Yue's service as a matter of course, but he didn't notice the coldness on Ning Yue's lips.
At this moment, Dongmei ran over to her face: "Miss San is not well! Niuniu fell off the swing, go and have a look!"
Ning Yue's complexion changed: "Niu Niu fell? How could this happen?"
Dongmei lowered her head and rubbed her eyes with her hands that had been rubbed with chili pepper: "Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"But..." Ning Yue looked at Lin Yonghe in embarrassment. After a long while, she bit her lip and put the key in Lin Yonghe's hand, "Auntie go light it first, and I'll come later! Qiuxiang, light up the lamp for Auntie, carefully break the key." Go!"
Qiu Xiang blessed her body: "Yes."
