"Are you exciting me?" he yelled angrily.
"No!" Su Li shook his head, "I'm helping you! Now that the book with Li has been written, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. Go find your song sister! Marry her home as soon as possible!"
She carefully folded the Heli book and put it in her close-fitting clothes. She turned to look at Ruan Ling: "Ling'er, pack your things, let's go home!"
"That family won't take you in!" Gu Mingxuan yelled angrily, "If you decide to divorce on your own, just wait for your parents and your five brothers to break your legs!"
"That's my business!" Su Li said with a smile, "Mr. Gu, I advise you to worry about your own affairs first! I am leaving today, but your mother and sister took most of my dowry. , go and inform them quickly, how you got it, and how you can return it to me!"
"Why does my mother and sister want to take your dowry?" Gu Mingxuan shouted angrily, "They don't care!"
"Aren't you curious?" Su Li sneered, "Then I'll take you to have a look!"
Ignoring Gu Mingxuan's objections, she pushed him out of the courtyard and walked straight to the courtyard of the Gu family's mother-in-law, Fang.
Mrs. Fang was drinking tea and chatting with her daughter Gu Xinlian when she saw Su Li and frowned slightly.
"Who let you in? Get out!" Fang scolded coldly.
She doesn't like this submissive daughter-in-law.
So what if it's the real daughter of the Hou family?
Things that grow in the wild cannot be put on the table at all!
It's pity that her son, a young and talented man, was supposed to marry a beautiful and talented lady like Jiang Qingge, but instead ended up getting together with this woman!
Just thinking about this matter for a moment made Fang feel as uncomfortable as burning with oil!
If she hadn't cared about the dignity of Mistress Gu Mansion, she would have wanted to beat Su Li violently and throw her back to the Marquis Mansion!
In the past, Su Li would have run away in fear after being scolded by her like this.
But this time, not only did she not slip away, but she also walked over with her head high to meet her gaze, and she didn't stop until she was in front of Mr. Fang.
"Su Li, are you deaf or blind?" Gu Xinlian stared at her impatiently, "Mom told you to get out, didn't you hear?"
"I heard that!" Su Li replied with a smile, "I will soon do as you wish and get away! However, before you get away, please return my dowry to me first!"
"Dowry?" Fang and Gu Xinlian looked at each other and subconsciously retracted their hands.
However, the cuffs of the spring shirt were a bit short, and the bracelet on the wrist was too shiny. No matter how they pulled it, they still couldn't hide the dazzling luster.
Su Li sneered silently.
In her previous life, all her dowry fell into the hands of Fang and Gu Xinlian.
After getting so many benefits from her, these two girls never gave her a smile and beat and scolded her.
In name she is the daughter-in-law of the Marquis, but in reality she is worse than the lowest slave!
Now seeing the faces of these two girls, Su Li was filled with anger.
Her eyes fell on Fang's wrist, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly: "The red coral and lotus bracelet Madam is wearing was purchased by my grandfather from the Western Regions. When I got married, my grandmother personally put it on my wrist. , Gu Mingxuan, do you still remember?"
Gu Mingxuan turned his head and said, "Who remembers what bracelet you are wearing? I don't even bother to look at you!"
"Yes!" Mrs. Fang covered the coral bracelet and echoed: "Don't talk nonsense here! My bracelet was given to me by Xuan'er's father! How did it become yours?"
"It doesn't matter if Madam doesn't admit it!" Su Li said with a smile, "It's clearly written on my dowry list! When I get to Shuntian Mansion, there will be someone to uphold justice for me!"
"What Shuntian Mansion?" Fang was startled, "Okay, what are you talking about?"
"It was the madam who started talking to me!" Su Li chuckled, "The laws of the Xiao Dynasty are clearly written. If a woman makes peace with her and separates, her husband's family cannot withhold her dowry, but the madam has to violate the law. I can only do this!"
When Mrs. Fang heard the word "Heli", her head was buzzing, and she hurriedly interrupted her: "What Heli? What on earth are you talking about?"
"Ah, I'm sorry!" Su Li chuckled, "I was so anxious that I forgot to tell my wife the whole story! Just now, I made peace with Gu Mingxuan, the young master of your house! Here is the letter of peace and separation, which I personally said Please, what he wrote with his own hand is absolutely true!”
She took out the Heli book and put it in front of Fang's eyes. After making sure that she could see it clearly, she quickly took it back and put it away.
"Now that we have reconciled, please return the original dowry I brought! If there is even half a missing piece, we will meet in Shuntian Mansion! I hope that the lady will be more honest and not hide anything, so as not to make the confrontation ugly in court!"
"Why should I give it back to you?" Gu Xinlian jumped, "Those dowries were obviously given to us on your own initiative!"
"Take the initiative?" Su Li sneered and stepped forward, grabbed her wrist, and forced her to show the bracelet on her wrist, "When did I give you this exquisite jade bracelet?"
"And this malachite green jade bead string around your neck, when did I give it to you?"
"Obviously you took it without asking! Taking it without asking is considered stealing! You actually have the nerve to talk about gifts here? Do you dare to go to Shuntian Mansion to say this? Do you dare to let everyone in the capital come? Do you listen? Have you ever seen a mother-in-law or a sister-in-law from any family who is wearing the bride’s dowry all over her body?”
"Don't scare me with Shuntian Mansion!" Gu Xinlian wanted to shake her off, but she held her tighter and cursed angrily, "Hey Su Li, why are you so angry today? Someone, take her away. , serve with random sticks!"
"Miss Gu is so majestic!" Su Li sneered, "I'm right here, let's see who dares to serve you with a stick!"
"So what if I beat you?" Gu Xinlian stared at her, "Is it possible that there will be someone to protect you? Those people in your parents' family want to beat you to death more than I do! The only one who can protect you is your mother-in-law. The ancestral family! However, the Su family is finished now! The men are dead, and the men are in jail! Only the old, weak, women and children are left, and they have no time to take care of themselves. Do you think they can protect you? "
Su Li had been thinking about how to deal with Jiang Qingge since he was reborn. When he suddenly heard her mentioning his grandfather's house, his heart trembled and tears filled his eyes!
Yes, my grandfather’s family has fallen into decline.
Not long after she was taken back to the Hou Mansion, something happened to the Su family.
My grandfather, my eldest uncle, my second uncle died in the war, my third uncle was imprisoned after returning to Beijing, my fourth uncle disappeared, and my fifth uncle was paralyzed in bed. Only my grandmother, eldest aunt, and several cousins were left in the family to support themselves.
But even so, when she got married, her grandmother still tried her best to buy a dowry of ten tons for her.
As the biological mother, Mrs. Su only gave her a symbolic load of scraps and scraps of scrap metal, which even the servants looked down upon, so she picked them out and threw them to her.
Thinking about it carefully, in the short twenty years of her previous life, her happiest time was when her grandmother took her back to Beijing.
