Seeing the expressions of the third lady of the Ye family, Ye Jiuli spoke in a cool tone.
"Since the Hou Mansion has not taken care of me in the past 15 years, there is no need for you to interfere with what I want to do in the next 15 days!
If you want to get married in the General's Mansion, prepare a dowry for me. If I want to disobey the imperial edict, I don't have to do it.
As for the dowry, if you feel that you don’t have to deal with the general’s mansion in the future, you can prepare whatever rotten stuff you want. Even if you don’t prepare it, it doesn’t matter if I get married alone.
Again, if you are willing to live in peace, I will get married well!
If you insist on using rules and filial piety to suppress me, or try to use someone to manipulate me, then I don’t mind letting you see what I have learned in the past 15 years!
Anyway, I have never enjoyed a wealthy life for a few days in my life. It would be quite easy to give up.
But you are different. You have been raised in a noble house for decades. If you were asked to give up this wealth, you would be sad, right? "
After Ye Jiuli finished speaking, he glanced at Su with an unkind look. "What are you doing standing there in a daze? You can't decide on the marriage, so you can't do anything else?"
After saying that, Ye Jiuli turned around and walked out of the flower hall. After a while, Su Shi seemed to have come back to her senses. He bowed hastily to the old lady at the head and hurriedly chased her out.
Seeing the two people leaving, the three ladies of the Ye family felt their hearts tighten at the same time!
Now that the marriage has been decided, it's the Holy Father himself, so this damn girl doesn't even pretend anymore and dares to threaten them in front of so many people!
The damn thing is that now they can only be threatened by others!
Unless the General Mansion refuses the marriage, or Ye Jiuli dies suddenly and mysteriously. Otherwise, if Ye Jiuli makes a mistake and refuses to marry, or for any other reason, as long as the marriage fails to happen in the end, Weiyuan Hou will inevitably be in trouble!
After thinking about this clearly, the third lady of the Ye family remained silent for a long time.
They didn't know how to convince the Xiao family to refuse the marriage, and they didn't know how to kill Ye Jiuli quietly. They didn't know what to do.
Ye Jiuli was indeed threatening them. She knew very well what the people in this house were like!
Even the in-laws who don't know the future of the General's Mansion and whether they can win over are reluctant to give up, let alone the Hou's Mansion, which has been glorious for hundreds of years.
In this era, family is the most important source of support for these wealthy families, and the same goes for the Ye family. If there is even the slightest possibility of threatening the foundation of the Hou Mansion, they will try their best to nip it in its infancy.
If Ye Jiuli still pleases them like the original person in the novel, the third lady may not be anxious.
But Ye Jiuli couldn't control her in this life, so they could only think of using other people's methods to control her.
Judging from Ye Jiuli's attitude towards them after he came back, he was only kind to Su, and he naturally became the most suitable candidate in their hearts!
I have to say that Ye Jiuli really guessed it right! After the imperial edict came down yesterday, after the joy that fell from the sky faded away, the old lady, Madam Hou and Mrs. Qu plotted for a long time.
Mrs. Su is Ye Jiuli's biological mother and the Ye family's wife. They had nothing to do with the disobedient Ye Jiuli, but it was much easier to deal with the Su family!
It's just that the third lady never expected that Ye Jiuli's true face would be such a bastard! The kindness she showed towards Su in the past was actually just an act.
Now that people have made it clear that they don't care about Su's biological mother, if they make things too difficult, others will only laugh at the Hou family if word gets out.
Several young masters and young ladies in the mansion have reached the age of marriage. If there is any bad reputation in the Hou Mansion at this time, it will not do them any good at all.
…
Ye Jiuli and Su Shi returned to Lan Yue Pavilion one after another. After making sure that there were no outsiders, they put aside their expressions of disapproval in front of the three noble ladies of the Ye family.
Ye Jiuli picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water for Su Shi, but when she turned around, she saw Su Shi looking at her with tears in her eyes.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Su's lips moved, she held Ye Jiuli's hand and choked out, "Jiuli, it's your parents who can't help you, if..."
Ye Jiuli twitched the corner of her mouth, put down the water glass, and quickly helped Su sit down. "Mom, didn't we agree that everything we did just now was just for them to watch? It's all over now. Why haven't you performed yet?"
Yes! What they had just done in front of the three noble ladies of the Ye family was something they had discussed long ago.
The purpose was to show other people in the Hou Mansion that Ye Jiuli didn't care about Su's feelings at all.
But Ye Jiuli didn't expect that Su, who was already feeling guilty for her, got too involved in the drama and actually became sad.
Su wiped her tears and said, "Mom knows, but she felt really sad! Back then..."
Ye Jiuli saw that Su was going to recall the past again, so he quickly interrupted. "Mom, I didn't blame you and dad, really! You sent me to the mountains just because you wanted me to survive. I understand!"
Ye Jiuli didn't know whether the original body would blame Su and Ye Hongchi, but she didn't complain anyway.
But it doesn't matter even if the original person has a complaint, although it's a bit painful to stand and talk. But who made this body belong to her now, and everything is controlled by her.
"But…"
Ye Jiuli held Su's hand and cut off her tirade again. "No buts! I am the person involved, so you only need to consider my feelings!
Mom, keeping reminiscing about past regrets is the most meaningless thing.
We are only half a month away from the wedding. Time is so tight. Instead of wasting it on reminiscing about the past, you might as well supervise the embroiderers at home for me and ask them to embroider my wedding dress more beautifully so that I can get married in a glorious way. "
Su Shi blinked her eyes, and the tears that were about to fall evaporated strangely after hearing Ye Jiuli's words!
My daughter is right! The most important thing right now is her marriage, and he shouldn't make her unhappy at this time.
Thinking of this, Su quickly adjusted her emotions. Ignoring her slightly red eyes, Su Shi at this moment actually had an aura of high morale and going all out.
Seeing Su getting up in a hurry, Ye Jiuli quickly grabbed her hand. "Mom, didn't you say before that you and dad secretly prepared something for me and my brother? Don't put my share in the dowry, just give it to me!"
Su Shi was puzzled, "Why? If you put it in the dowry, wouldn't it make you look more presentable when you get married?"
Ye Jiuli waved his hand, "No matter how big the noodles are, they are for the Hou's Mansion, so naturally they have to be filled by the Hou's Mansion. For the ones you and dad gave me, I plan to beat some more gold and silver melon seeds, and use them when I enter the General's Mansion later. It’s also easier to take care of the servants.”
Su Shi nodded, yes, yes! In a family like the General's Mansion, the daughter becomes the eldest sister-in-law after she gets married. Although the servants are slaves, they still need to be well managed so that they can do the things they are told to do more conscientiously.
