Chapter 94

But the Qi family also said that the Huo family rented in the Daliuzhi Hutong, and the whole family lived together, and there was no place to put the dowry at all. It would be better to make an auspicious number eight, and put more gold and silver jewelry and bank notes. Are they real?

Father Zhu listened very reasonably, and nodded in response without checking.

On the day when the original owner got married, the butler sang the dowry list in front of the guests, and posted the dowry in public. Sure enough, as Qi said, the number of boxes was small, but each was heavy, even three times richer than a daughter of a comparable family background. point.

People can't find any mistakes, and the marriage is done smoothly.

But after the original owner got married to the Huo family, he found out that there was no dowry girl with him, and the dowry box was dropped, and there were only her old clothes and bedding in it, except for her attire that day, there was no jewelry And silver!

Where the original owner was willing to do it, they started arguing on the day they returned home.

But Zhu's father has long disliked her, thinking that she was full of lies and didn't believe a word; Huo Shangjie didn't expect too much from his new wife, and ignored it indifferently; As long as I can jump out of the pit of Zhujia, there will be bread and milk!

For this, Zhu Jiayin comforted her in a low voice, and subsidized her with half of her dowry, including 200 taels of silver, a small village with [-] acres of paddy fields in the suburbs, and a small wine shop in a busy street in a civilian area.

In fact, Zhu Jiayin didn't have many dowries, but Zhu's father cared about the son-in-law of the champion man, and personally followed him to make up a good dowry.

Because of this, Qi's heart ached so much that he tampered with Zhu Jiayi's dowry.

The reactions of these people were all within Qi's expectations. Seeing Zhu Jiayi coming in with arrogance and leaving like a frost-beaten eggplant, he said softly: This Zhu Jiayi is a coward who is tough on the outside and soft on the inside. I don't know how she has the guts to do so many stupid things!
The original owner has never learned how to run a family, and is extremely vain and loves to compare, so he has never saved money.

Now that she got such a fortune suddenly, she naturally squandered it, buying carriages, maids, wives, coachmen, clothes, jewelry, and food. Within half a year, the 200 taels of silver were wiped out by misfortune.

During the period, she reached out to her sister many times. After being reprimanded by her brother-in-law, she used the turnover money of the restaurant and abruptly cut off the way to earn money every month!

Just because the money was not available, the original owner began to focus on Huo Shangjie's Fengyin with ugly looks, and wanted to split the family.

Recently, he was about to rent out the wine shop, and he also sold the despised Zhuangzi for cash.

With her stomach full, Zhu Jiayi struggled to find a purse from under the bed, which contained the land deeds of Zhuangzi and the wine shop, and sold the servants and the carriage to get 60 taels of silver for the invitation card of the Peony Club.

Looking at the two pieces of thin paper with the official seal and six fist-sized silver, she breathed out slightly. If she was two days late, she might really have to rely on Huo Shangjie.

Thinking about the heartache of reaching out to others for money, she didn't want to go through it!

A few hundred taels of silver were exchanged for a full body and piles of colorful clothes and jewelry. Zhu Jiayi pretended to stuff a few pieces into the box, and folded the rest neatly into the space.

When she was sitting and resting, Huo Shangjie came in with his two brothers, glanced at the room, then picked up the box and walked out without saying a word.

Zhu Jiayi hurriedly got up to follow, the rooms next door and opposite were very quiet, but Huo Xiaomei looked at the door frame, and quickly retracted her head when she met her gaze.
