Chapter 89
"This child can't stand Mrs. Mu's praise. In the future, I won't ask for anything else. I just hope that Mrs. Mu can take care of him a little more."

The third wife, Mrs. Xie, was talking to Mrs. Mu.

Ye Jingzhao smiled slightly and let everyone look at him.

Mrs. Mu Mrs. Zhao took a look at the third Mrs. Xie.

The tone was a bit narrower, "From now on, we will be a family. We don't have to talk like this. I really like this child, and I'm not trying to trick you."

Mrs. Mu beckoned to Ye Jingzhao, Miss Ye Fourth, and signaled her to come to her.

Ye Jingzhao looked at his mother, and the third wife, Mrs. Xie, nodded slightly.

Only then did she walk towards Mrs. Mu.

Mrs. Mu Mrs. Zhao stood up and took Miss Ye Si's hand, full of satisfaction in her heart and eyes.

She slowly raised her hand and pulled out a golden hairpin carved with peonies from her bun.

The stamens and petals on the peony seem to be pieced together with gemstones of similar colors.

The crystal clear gemstones reflect the red gold background a little more vividly.

"This was my mother's dowry when I left the government. I have been keeping it carefully over the years. I hope you can pass this hairpin on in the future."

Mrs. Mu Zhao smiled gently, and her whole body was filled with kindness.

Ye Jingzhao was a little flustered.

"My whole heart, you just have to accept it with peace of mind. Now it's not like before, so don't worry too much."

After saying that, Mrs. Mu Zhao raised her hand and put the red gold hairpin in Ye Jingzhao's bun.

Ye Jingzhao slowly bent down and no longer resisted.

"Third Madam, why don't you ask the servants I brought to carry the 120 betrothal gift for Miss Fourth to the third bedroom."

Mrs. Mu Mrs. Zhao pulled Ye Jingzhao to sit down.

Then he looked at the third wife, Mrs. Xie, and started talking about business.

When the old lady heard this, her expression froze.

Before the third lady Xie could answer, the old lady opened her voice first.

"Mrs. Mu, this is all the family affairs of the Bo family, so I won't bother the servants of the Mu family."

As she spoke, the old lady turned to look at Nanny Yuan and ordered, "Go and call some careful hands to carry the fourth girl's betrothal gift to the warehouse in the backyard."

The warehouse in the backyard is the old lady's own private treasury.

It doesn't look good to blatantly seize the granddaughter's betrothal gift.

The eldest lady Liang stopped her, "Mother, according to etiquette, the third younger sister should keep the fourth young lady's dowry."

She comes from a wealthy family, and she has always looked down upon the old lady's behavior.

If you really ask the old lady to steal your granddaughter's betrothal gift.

She didn't want to follow the old lady and have outsiders ridicule her.

"The rules of our uncle's house are that the elders always keep these betrothal gifts for the younger ones."

The old lady glanced lightly at Mrs. Liang.

There was no shame on his face.

On the contrary, I think this is a very normal thing.

Mrs. Mu had known earlier that the old lady wanted to swallow the bride price from the fourth girl.

I brought my son here today.

She looked at the old lady with a smile, her eyes showing her unwillingness to give in.

"Old madam, this is probably inappropriate. This is my family's dowry for the fourth girl. How can I ask the old madam to guard it for the fourth girl? This is against etiquette."

"Besides, if the old lady wastes her mind and hurts her body because of this, it will be the sin of their juniors."

Mrs. Mu spoke mellowly and thoughtfully, without any mistakes.

The old lady has made up her mind today, how can she give up so easily?

"Mrs. Mu is still young, so these rules and etiquette are naturally not as thoughtful as an old woman like me. Just follow my wishes today."

"I think the table in front has been prepared. Let's go and eat."

After saying this, the old lady winked at Nanny Yuan who was waiting on the side, and then said in a deep voice, "Be careful. If you stumble and get hurt, check your skin carefully."

The old lady wanted to get up.

Mrs. Mu stood up first, walked up to the old lady, greeted her with a smile.

But her body blocked Nanny Yuan's way.

"Old Madam, although I am young and my knowledge cannot be compared with that of the Old Madam, what if I insist on carrying the betrothal gift to the fourth girl today?"

The atmosphere suddenly froze.

The old lady's face turned cold immediately.

The old man got up and advised, "Mother, let someone carry this dowry to the fourth girl. Besides, the warehouse in the backyard can't hold these things even if I think about it."

The old lady glared at the boss angrily.

"I'm just keeping it for the fourth girl for now. When the fourth girl gets married in the future, I will naturally ask someone to carry it out. Do you all think that I will be greedy for this betrothal gift?"

No one present believed what the old lady said.

"Mother, these things were given to Zhaozhao by the Mu family, and it's best to leave them to Zhaozhao for safekeeping."

The third master got up and greeted his mother.

The second master and second wife Jiang were sitting where they were, not wanting to get involved in this matter.

"All of you, you are really amazing. After giving birth, you all don't pay attention to my old lady now. You are really white-eyed wolves!"

The old lady scolded angrily.

The eldest master and the third master looked sarcastic, but they had no intention of backing down from this matter.

"Old Madam, today is a happy day. Why is it that because of these little things, everyone is unhappy? We all understand the old Madam's intentions. She just wants to ask the fourth girl to keep it by herself. It also settles the relationship between the two families. point."

Madam Mu Zhao persuaded her, her face still gentle.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the old lady reprimanded Mrs. Mu, Mrs. Zhao, "Now, maybe even you want to ride on my old woman's head and shit."

Today she insisted on withholding the bride price of the fourth girl, no matter who came to lobby, she would not agree.

Although there is a charcoal stove in the front hall, the air inside the room is actually a bit colder than outside.

When Mu Yanzong, the eldest son of Mu, saw his mother being scolded by the old lady, he was naturally reluctant.

Just now I endured it all the time, but I was thinking that the old lady is an elder after all.

But today, the old lady has already spoken to such an extent.

According to his temperament, he must stand up for his mother.

Absolutely will not sit idly by.

I saw Mu Yanzong raised his foot and took a step forward.

Although he didn't speak, there was an air all over his body that made people dare not neglect him.

"Lady, ladies and gentlemen."

He first bowed to everyone in the front hall one by one to salute.

Only then did he turn his gaze to the old lady and salute again.

The voice was so loud that it was impossible to easily refute it.

"Old madam, please forgive me for being rude."

He first performed the etiquette, but what he said was extremely dissatisfied, "If today I insist on handing over the dowry gift to Fourth Miss for safekeeping, what will the old lady plan?"

There was a chill in his eyes.

The words spoken sound like orders.

"It's all the elders here, and it's not your turn to interrupt here as a junior."

The old lady's face was full of displeasure, and her voice became a little sharper.
