Destroyed outside, gold and jade inside

Chapter 10 Asking the Dowry

Until Shen Xinniang knelt down opposite him.

Only then did he come back to his senses with slightly burning cheeks, aware of his lack of focus and embarrassment, he raised his voice a little angrily, "You have married into the Feng family, and you are my wife, Feng Qilang. Forget it, guarding this courtyard will naturally require your food and drink! But if you don't behave like a woman and stick out of the wall like that red apricot, I, Feng Qilang, won't be so cowardly! Get out of Feng's house as soon as possible!"

Shen Xinniang looked at him indifferently, "Your mother, that's not what you said."

"Just remember what I said!" Feng Qilang shouted.

I thought she was going to cry.

But she said calmly, "Okay."

Feng Qilang was full of anger, but he had no reason to vent his anger. He blushed and looked at Shen Xinniang, "If you have other thoughts in your heart, tell them now! If you do something inappropriate in the future, don't blame me for not doing it." remind you!"

"What unacceptable behavior?" Shen Xinniang looked at him and asked.

A pair of eyes that could not see the waves made Feng Qilang feel guilty, "Doesn't you know that women in the house are not allowed to discriminate against men in the house?"

"I, who am I seeing privately?"

Looking at Shen Xinniang's dark eyes, Feng Qilang gritted his teeth and was speechless.

When I met King Qi yesterday, there were many people present, so I can't speak of prejudice.

I heard that seeing King Qi this morning, she also opened the door of the courtyard and did not leave the sight of everyone, so it is not considered prejudice.

And it was King Qi who came to the door twice, so it's not her fault.

"It's just because incomplete people are easy to bully." Shen Xinniang looked at him.

That stiff face made him feel a bit of irony.

Because she was easy to bully, did he come to scold her?When did he, Feng Qilang, become such a bullying person?
"Call the Feng family, and be more vigilant. It's more useful than scolding me." Shen Xinniang said slowly.

She taught her a lesson by herself, but was she treated as a fool?
Feng Qilang walked out of Shen Xiniang's yard angrily, but couldn't help but look back.

With such clear thinking and well-founded answers, is she really an incomplete person?

Maybe, I should call the Feng family, who went to Wu Xing to see her last year, to take a good look!

Was the one who married into Feng's family the incomplete prostitute of Shen Shangshu's family?

Shen Xinniang got up and came to the dressing table.

Being disturbed by someone, I can't fall asleep at this time, so it's better to wait until after lunch.

On the contrary, the yin-yang spring eyes raised with jade, since they have this miraculous effect, naturally shouldn't be wasted.

Pushing the maid away, she dug out her dowry and picked out all the jade ornaments from it.

Put them one by one on the palm of my left hand to try, but there is no response.

Whether it was the precious pigeon's blood ruby ​​jade or the suet white jade, the palm of his left hand was peaceful, and there was no wonder that the jade disappeared.

Shen Xinniang couldn't help being a little disappointed, could it be just a coincidence?

Or is it only effective when the palm of the hand is hot?

She was about to give up.

Suddenly, he saw that the dowry and the cold jade bracelet seemed to be a pair of earrings made of the same material.

Try again with this earring?

As soon as the earring made of cold jade touched the palm of his left hand, it immediately disappeared as if it had evaporated.

Only the golden hook that was originally tied with cold jade dangled in Shen Xinniang's hands alone.

Silently recite "Tai Chi produces Liangyi..."

The moment the Yin-Yang spring eye appeared, she quickly scooped up the Baiquan spring water with the prepared cup.

The jade material is too small, the Yin-Yang Spring Eye only appeared for a moment, then disappeared.

Fortunately, the spring water scooped out of the cup is still there.

And the white smoke is constantly rising from the cup, like water vapor, invisible to the touch.

Shen Xinniang took a breath, she had never moved so quickly since she became conscious.

Drink the spring water in the cup into your mouth.

A warm current lingered in the throat, and then slowly flowed to the limbs.

The feeling of comfort throughout the body is difficult to describe in words.

"Come here!" She took a deep breath and called out.

The voice suddenly became clearer, just like the voice a girl of this age should have.

She looked at herself in the mirror, raised her hand, and moved her fingers.

A day ago, she was extremely stiff in doing these movements, but now she can do them freely and smoothly.

This spring water is really amazing!

"Miss?" The servant girl tentatively poked her head out from behind the screen, the person who called someone just now, is it really the lady?

"Where is my dowry list?" The moist and comfortable feeling in her throat had already allowed her to speak fluently, but in order to avoid suspicion, she still spoke slowly.

"Ah?" The servant girl was taken aback, "This thing should be... the lady kept it herself?"

Shen Xinniang looked down at her dowry, there was no dowry list in it.There are also good things in the jewelry, the pigeon's blood red jade bracelet, the suet white jade hairpin, the red gold emerald jade bracelet... But the styles are not new, and there are obvious traces of wearing them.

Thinking about it, it might have belonged to her deceased biological mother.

"Do you know where Mrs. Feng's yard is?" Shen Xiniang looked at the maid and asked slowly.

"The servant girl knows!" The servant girl nodded repeatedly.

"Help me over there." Shen Xiniang supported the dressing table and stood up.

The servant girl was taken aback, "Ma'am, you... You are looking for Madam... Well, you should call Madam 'mother'..."

"Mother, here is my son, please greet me." Shen Xinniang said blessedly.

When she bowed her head in salute, she couldn't see the pair of eyes that had no whites and were dark and deep like a bottomless abyss.It is also pleasing to watch, but when she raises her head and touches her eyes, it makes people feel uncomfortable.

Madam Feng turned away her eyes and pretended to smile enthusiastically: "Why did Xin'er come here? You are not in good health, so you don't need to come to pay your respects, your mother has already seen your heart! But the servant has neglected you? Just tell your mother..."

"Mother, where is my dowry list?" Shen Xinniang said slowly.

Her face was calm, even a little warm.

But as soon as these words came out, there was silence in the upper room.

Mrs. Feng's face is not very good-looking.

The old mother who was waiting on the side was even more annoyed.

"Young Madam, you are not in good health, so the Shen family handed over your dowry list to Madam for safekeeping! Do Madam still miss your things? No matter you have a young man or a young lady in the future, your dowry will naturally be Your child! Madam will definitely not move a bit, you are in Feng's family, you have food and lodging in Feng's family, and you don't need it!"

Before Mrs. Feng could speak, the senior mother beside her couldn't help being filled with righteous indignation.

Shen Xinniang looked at her deeply.

She also stared back in a daze, but when she touched those deep eyes that couldn't see the waves, her momentum was a little bit weaker.

"What are you talking about? It's only natural for Xin'er to ask about her dowry, so she won't back down!" Mrs. Feng reprimanded the old mother, her tone not very harsh.

She looked back at Shen Xinniang with a smile, "Tell mother, who taught you to ask about your dowry?"
