"The scenery here is pleasant and very good." Xie Wanyu said with a smile.
Xiao Jing nodded absently.
Xie Wanyu knew that he had something to say, but it was probably too difficult to say, so he talked about some innocuous topics.
She didn't expose him, she just waited quietly.
After a while, Xiao Jing said, "Since you were away from home, Xue Ning has been taking care of the house. She is not as good as you and doesn't manage it well."
"She has just started taking care of the house, so her management is naturally unsatisfactory. It will get better in the future." Xie Wanyu said with a smile.
Xiao Jing nodded.
For a while, the two of them were speechless.
But Xiao Jing came with a mission this time. If he didn't complete the mission, it might be difficult for him to deliver.
"There is no money in the family now, and everyone is having a hard time. Look, can you take some out first? After all, you are also a member of this family." Xiao Jing gritted her teeth and said it anyway.
A man would be laughed at if he used his wife's dowry, but he no longer cared about that at this time.
Xie Wanyu almost laughed out of anger at him.
According to normal people's thinking, he should come here to apologize to Xie Wanyu first, and then take her home.
Unexpectedly, he came here to ask for money.
He didn't want her to return to the Marquis Mansion, but he also wanted her to pay for it. Why did he let him take all the good things?
"The Marquis also knows that now that the New Year is about to enter, there are many places to spend money, and I really don't have any. Moreover, the money from my shops has been used to buy land. If the Marquis is not in a hurry, he will wait for a good harvest next year. Then I will have plenty of money." Xie Wanyu said with a smile.
Xiao Jing was choked severely.
Anger suddenly came over him, "What do you mean by this? Can the elderly wait, can the children wait? After all, you are the mistress of the Hou Mansion, and you are so vicious that you want to starve the whole family to death?" He said Said angrily.
Xie Wanyu looked at him and couldn't help but sneer, "I'm evil, so I'll let it go. Master Hou, can't you use gold rice paper to practice calligraphy? Can't Xue Xuening stop using bird's nests as water? And Xiao Jinmin, one month If you want to make ten new sets of clothes, why don’t you have something to wear? Since you are so poor that you can’t take the blame, why are you still living that kind of life?”
She couldn't help but feel that she had done a good job and completely raised this family up.
Xiao Jing looked a little embarrassed, "I am Lord Hou. Do you want me to live a poor life? Aren't you afraid of people laughing at the Hou family?"
"Then the Marquis will use my dowry to support a large family, so he won't be afraid of being laughed at?" Xie Wanyu asked in return.
Xiao Jing scratched her head irritably, paced back and forth in the room, and finally said, "You only need to give me part of the dowry. After all, you are a member of the family, and you should contribute."
Xie Wanyu couldn't sit still anymore and simply stood up, "Master Hou is really good at talking. Now I live in another courtyard and not in the mansion, but I have to use my money to support the people in the mansion. What do you think? of."
No wonder Xiao Jing is with Xue Xuening, both of them are shameless.
"Aren't you from the Hou Mansion?" Xiao Jing asked.
He remembered Xue Xuening's advice, only money, not people.
Xie Wanyu was left alone to fend for herself in another courtyard, and their family lived a good life at home.
Xie Wanyu knew that it was unreasonable to talk to him, so she said in a flash, "Master Marquis, don't we still have Zhuangzi in the house? You can just sell any one and it will last until next year."
"Those Zhuangzi were left behind by my grandfather, how can they be sold at will?" Xiao Jing said coldly.
"This money was also left by my grandfather. How can I just give it to me?" Xie Wanyu said.
Xiao Jing was no match for Xie Wanyu, and in the end she could only say angrily, "If you don't pay me, I will divorce you."
"Go and write a letter of divorce now. I want people to see if the Xie family is something you can mess with." Xie Wanyu said word by word.
Xiao Jing only threatened Xie Wanyu, how dare he write a letter of divorce.
The Xie family helped him a lot in court, and he did not dare to offend easily.
But now that Xie Wanyu was refusing to accept the offer, there was nothing he could do.
In the end, I could only return in despair.
When Xue Xuening saw Xiao Jing coming back empty-handed, she immediately lost her temper.
"I just asked you to ask for some money, but you didn't even get a cent. Are you going to let me and my son starve to death?" She pointed at Xiao Jing and said angrily.
At this time, Xiao Jinmin was drinking chicken soup in Xue Xuening's room.
Now that Mrs. Xiao is ill, Xie Wanyu has gone to another hospital, so their family of three lives under one roof.
"She won't take anything soft or hard. I've used everything you taught me, but it's of no use at all." Xiao Jing sighed.
Xue Xuening frowned and paced back and forth in front of Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing pulled her and said, "Don't walk back and forth. You'll give me a headache."
"Master Hou, aren't I thinking of a way?" Xue Xuening glared at him, "It's almost the end of the New Year. This year is the first time that our family of three will celebrate the New Year together, so we have to look good."
After looking at their mother and son, Xiao Jing said, "Otherwise, wouldn't I have given you two shops before? You can sell them for some money first, and I will give you some more in the future when I have money."
Xue Xuening immediately became anxious, as if she had stepped on her tail, "You don't care if I ask for money. Do you know that it is the only way for us to survive? Are you going to let us, mother and son, die?"
"It's just two shops, why are people dying?" Xiao Jing said helplessly, "Didn't you say that as long as you are with me, you can endure any hardship?"
After hearing this, Xue Xuening suddenly became quiet.
After a while, she gently touched Xiao Jing's shoulder, "Of course, you are the father of my son, you are the person I want to be with regardless of face, why can't I endure hardship with you, but this shop is for Min The son takes a wife.”
A few words made Xiao Jing feel relieved a lot, "It's just what we should do now."
Xue Xuening thought for a while and finally said, "How about we find a few bandits and kidnap her. She is in the wilderness. I don't believe she won't hand over the money."
"You dare to kidnap someone? Are you crazy?" Xiao Jing said in surprise.
"So what, if she dares to report to the official, her reputation will be ruined, so she can only bear the consequences of being dumb." Xue Xuening narrowed her eyes, "This time, we want her to spit out all the dowry."
Xue Xuening's eyes gleamed when she thought of Xie Wanyu's generous dowry.
If all those dowries were pocketed by her, then she would never need to rely on anyone else in her life.
Xiao Jing was still a little hesitant, "After all, I am an official of the imperial court. How can I know the law and break it? Besides, there is nothing wrong with Wanyu not giving us dowry money."
"She is your married couple. When you are in trouble, even if you ask her to help, she refuses. She is so vicious, what else do you have to worry about? Don't worry, for the sake of her reputation, she won't dare to speak out." Xue Xuening said.
Xiao Jing was a little moved by her words, "Yeah, who made her so vicious."
"That is, with her dowry, we don't have to worry about the future, and it can also pave the way for Min'er's future career." Xue Xuening said, "This is your biological son, so what does Xie Wanyu have to do with you?"
