Chapter 150
"It's obvious that you want to climb high!" Mrs. Yang said every word: "It's because you don't want to fulfill the engagement, so you falsely accuse my Nanxuan."

"What are we climbing to?"

Yu said sternly: "What the maid next to Xie Xingchen said personally, can it be false?"

"That maid Xie Xingchen has fallen into your hands a long time ago. What she says and does depends on your eyes!"

Mrs. Yang's eyes were cold, "At the beginning, I was thinking of my husband and Mr. Xie's friendship. They have been acquainted with each other all these years and even made an engagement. Now you are bullying me, an orphan and a widowed mother, and you have no one to support you, right?"

Yu didn't expect that she would still quibble at this point, so she laughed angrily, "So what are you here to do, just to shout these two words?"

"You want to yell, but I haven't had time to hear you yell yet. Someone is here - seeing off the guests!"

At that moment, two rough ladies came in, and the soldiers in the courtyard also took half a step forward, clearly trying to drive them away.

The expression on the face of the nanny beside Mrs. Yang changed, she stabilized her, turned to Mrs. Yu and said, "Madam, what do you mean? Do you want to do something to my wife?"

"I don't allow others to break into my home." Yu said coldly: "Either you leave by yourself, everyone will be decent. If you don't leave and you are still talking nonsense here, don't blame me for being rude."

Yang's face changed slightly, she didn't expect that Yu could drive people away in less than three words.

Just for a moment, I thought, this Yu family is originally from the countryside and is a big man in the military camp. Who knows what decency and rules are?

He would only use such barbaric methods to solve problems.

"Wait a minute!"

Yang suppressed her anger and said without changing her expression: "I didn't come here today just to talk about these things, there are other things."

Yu sneered: "Speak directly."

"Back then -" Yang said in a deep voice: "After the imperial edict granted marriage, my Chu family gave you a box to the Xie family as a token of your engagement. Now that you have turned your back and are heartless, please return the box. "

Yu frowned, very impressed by the box.

On the second day after Chu Nanxuan and Xie Zhaozhao got married, Chu Nanxuan happily sent an ebony box as a gift to Xie Zhaozhao.

There is a layer of red velvet inside the box, and a silver phoenix hairpin is placed on it.

Because Chai Zi is too simple.

The box is even more ordinary.

At that time, Mrs. Yu thought after seeing it, the Chu family was also a general's house after all, so how could they send such an inconspicuous gift.

But I felt that etiquette was light on etiquette but affection was heavy on affection, so I didn’t take it to heart after that.

Xie Zhaozhao also seemed to have never worn the silver hairpin, and kept it carefully.

Now, Mrs. Yu didn't want to get entangled with Mrs. Yang for even a moment. She waved her hand and said, "I'll pay you back—"

"mother."

Before Yu could finish her words, Xie Zhaozhao's voice sounded outside the door.

Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Yang both turned around and saw Xie Zhaozhao walking into the hall wearing a lotus colored dress, with exquisite and unique cloud shoulders, long hair pulled into a bun with gold ingots, and a fragrant cinnamon flower.

Mrs. Yang only looked at her, and her face instantly became gloomier.

If it hadn't been for Xie Zhaozhao, Chu Nanxuan wouldn't have been targeted by Yun Qi, and things wouldn't have come to this point.

"You came just in time." Mrs. Yang said coldly: "Since you have no intention of marrying Xuan'er, just return the things."

"Our marriage was given by the Holy Spirit."

Xie Zhaozhao's tone was light and indifferent: "We can't decide whether to marry or not, but judging from Madam's tone, there is a high probability that she doesn't want to fulfill the contract." Madam Yang sneered, "This engagement has long been in name only, and we all feel that You know it all, why do you have to say it so beautifully now? Return that box, and from now on, your Xie family will have nothing to do with our Chu family!"

"A silver phoenix hairpin, I'd rather ask my wife to make a special trip." Xie Zhaozhao lowered his head and smiled, "It's really rare."

Mrs. Yang's eyes moved slightly and she said coldly: "Even if it is a wooden hairpin, it was given by Nanxuan. Since you have no intention of spending the rest of your life with him, shouldn't you return his things?"

"Yes, of course."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded, "I just heard that Mrs. Yang was coming. I probably knew that you came for this, so I have prepared it for you."

Xianggui beside Xie Zhaozhao held a square object wrapped in blue velvet in his hand.

Mrs. Yang was startled for a moment, but she didn't expect Xie Zhaozhao to be ready so quickly.

Xie Zhaozhao asked politely: "There are still some things that I want to return intact."

"No need!"

Mrs. Yang said coldly: "The friendship between the two houses over the years has ended here."

"How can it be unnecessary?" Xie Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows and said seriously: "Chu Nanxuan and I have known each other for so many years. He gave me other things besides this, and I will return them today."

"As for what I gave to Chu Nanxuan, please ask Mrs. Yang to return it to me for him."

"What?" Mrs. Yang was startled, looking at Xie Zhaozhao as if she had seen a monster.

"Here is a receipt." Xie Zhaozhao raised his hand, and Xianggui immediately sent a piece of paper to Mrs. Yang.

Xie Zhaozhao said calmly: "It is clearly listed above, which items were given to me by Chu Nanxuan and which items were given to him by me. I will send someone to sort everything out immediately, and ask Mrs. Yang to prepare them as well."

Mrs. Yang just glanced at the receipt and her face instantly turned green.

Apart from the box, all Chu Nanxuan had given Xie Zhaozhao over the years was a sword and two sets of masks, none of which were valuables.

But what Xie Zhaozhao gave to Chu Nanxuan was precious armor, exotic medicines, weapons, hair crowns, and clothes.

And there is a special mark on the back. The hair crown and clothes were converted into a total of 1 taels of silver.

"He has already used his hair crown and clothes. Mrs. Yang will never give them back to me."

Xie Zhaozhao smiled and said: "You are the former princess after all, and your status is valuable. You must not be able to lose to a junior like me, right?"

Xie Zhaozhao added: "As for what he gave me, I have kept them well and have never used them... But I think Mrs. Yang may not believe it. This is good. You can also convert the money into silver and let's deduct it. Let's see. Let’s see how much the Chu family should give me back.”

"Thank you Zhaozhao!" Mrs. Yang's face turned livid, "I never thought you would be such a fussy woman, like a woman who is obsessed with money! You are a philistine and ugly!"

Yu shouted: "Didn't you come here to ask for something first?"

When she saw Xie Zhaozhao appearing, she thought that she must protect her daughter and not let her be bullied by Mrs. Yang.

After three sentences, Mrs. Yang changed her face in anger.

"Why can you only be allowed to settle accounts with others, but not others?" Yu said coldly, "What kind of truth is Mrs. Yang talking about!"

Over the years, the Chu family seemed to have gained the favor of Emperor Xuanwu, but after all, its staff was small and its property was not large. It could not compare to the prosperity of the Xie family.

In all the favors exchanged during New Years and holidays, the Chu family always expressed their feelings in a superficial way, and the Xie family always responded with generous gifts.

Now, shouldn't he be given some money back?
