Ninefold Purple

Dou Shishu almost jumped up when he heard this. 【】

He hurriedly ordered his followers: "Go and find out what's going on?"

The attendant didn't dare to be negligent, and after a while, he ran back wiping his sweat and told what happened.

Dou Shishu couldn't help but exploded in front of his entourage: "What is Lao Qi going to do? I'm afraid people don't know that the Dou family is rich? He married a whole bill of silver notes, what is he doing as the Dou family? Nouveau riche? Or not?" Knowing Jiarong’s mediocrity? He is not afraid of being targeted by robbers? He is not afraid of being horrified by the censor? Is he showing off his wealth? Or is he prodigal?” The more he talked, the more angry he was, and he scolded the bearer: “Not yet Go to Lord Seven's residence!"

Only then did the followers come to their senses, they obediently responded, and carried Dou Shishu to Dou Shiying's house in a hurry. [

Fortunately, most of the lively crowd had dispersed, otherwise they might not be able to squeeze in.

Sitting in the sedan chair, Dou Shishu felt very complicated.

Many people in the world don't know that Dou's family is divided into east and west sinuses.Seeing that Dou Shiying is rich, most people think that he has a higher official position than Dou Shiying and should be richer.And Dou Shiying is just a poor Hanlin, rich, of course it is passed down from his ancestors, but he is a cabinet scholar, he is rich, I am afraid it is not easy to explain clearly!

The emperor will definitely ask about this matter, what should he say then?

Dou Shishu couldn't help stroking his forehead.

I also blame myself for being too careless.

Knowing that the seventh brother wanted to compensate Shougu, he didn't ask anyone to pay attention.With so many banknotes, and all of them are brand new, it will take several months for the Tongde Bank to print them. Could it be that he had already prepared for them?

So when did he start preparing?

Could it be that he was sure that the sisters would not get married easily?

Did he know about the agreement between himself and the Ji family?

He only felt that his head was as big as a bucket, and when he met Dou Shiying, he unceremoniously asked all the questions in his heart.

Things were much simpler than Dou Shishu imagined.

"These bank notes were originally prepared by me for Sister Ming." Dou Shiying said honestly. "You also know that Shougu got half of Xidou's property. Compared with her, Sister Ming's dowry is too shabby. I just thought, Shougu is a magnanimous child. I should prepare more dowry for Sister Ming. She doesn't know what to say. Who knew that Sister Ming married Shougu in the Jining Marquis Mansion... I can't let her be wronged just because Shougu has always been magnanimous, otherwise, who would give in to others? Who would want to? Suffering? No one in this world is willing to take a step back. What is it going to be like?! I gave the bank note I prepared for Sister Ming to Aunt Shou as a dowry..."

When the words reached Wang Yingxue's ears, whose eyes were straightened because of the bank note, she vomited blood on the spot and passed out.

Dou Ming's face turned pale, looking at the maids and mother-in-law who were panicking in the room, and quietly walked out of the back room where his mother was detained.After finding Wei Tingyu who was wandering outside the upper room, he said with a sullen expression, "Master Hou, it's getting late, should we go back home? Otherwise, mother should worry again."

She felt like a joke, as if someone was pointing at her wherever she went.

Wei Tingyu seemed a little uneasy, he let out an "oh" and looked at Shangfang.Then he turned around and wanted to leave the main courtyard with Dou Ming.

Dou Mingzheng was worried that Wei Tingyu had also heard his father's words and felt resentful towards her, so he paid more attention to Wei Tingyu's actions than usual.Seeing this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "What is Hou Ye looking at?" His tone was delicate, vaguely flattering.

"No. It's nothing!" Wei Tingyu replied unnaturally, quickly regained his composure, and changed the subject with a smile, "Have you heard that? Shen Qing made a big joke..." He told what happened in the flower hall just now Tell Dou Ming about it. [

Dou Ming listened carefully, as if very interested.He asked, "Who is Shen Qing?" But his footsteps slowed down, and he stopped where Wei Tingyu was standing just now, and turned his head to look.

Wei Tingyu said with a smile: "He is the nephew of the late Empress Shen. He is a marquis from a relative. The emperor is a nostalgic person, and the empress is a virtuous and honest person. Only then can their family live in peace..."

Dou Ming could no longer hear what he was saying.

Looking from where she was standing, she could just see the east wing where Dou Zhao lived.

※※※※※

Once things are decided, the heart will be settled.In the future, it will be nothing more than soldiers coming to block, water coming and earth covering the ground to rush past.

Dou Zhao had a good night's sleep.

Woke up in the morning, radiant and refreshed.

Her emotions also infected those around her.

When Su Xin and Su Lan packed up their things, their hands and feet became much lighter.

Dou Zhao invited Chen Qushui, Duan Gongyi, and Chen Xiaofeng to talk.

"I'm afraid it will be rare to return to the real decision in the future. The guards at home, I would like to ask the three of you to ask. If anyone is willing to come to the capital with me, I will arrange the family affairs and wait until October to move to the capital. If so If you want to stay in Zhending, Zhending’s Aunt Cui needs someone to take care of you; if you have other plans, don’t force it, and send a generous Cheng Yi as a thank you for their hard work in the past few years.” Then she was very formal Chen Qushui, Duan Gongyi, and Chen Xiaofeng were invited, "You are my backbone, without you, I would not be where I am today. Although Shi Ziye is in chaos now, it is also an opportunity for heroes to emerge in troubled times. I hope The three of you can go with me."

Before Chen Qushui came

Guess that Dou Zhao called them over at this time, either to invite them to go to the British government together, or to discuss the matter of returning to the truth.Although the three of them had already negotiated with Dou Zhao on the road, they all felt that it would be better to go to the British government, at least they would not have so many "managers" above them, and life would be relatively easier.As for the risk, you might stumble while walking, so why not take risks?What's more, this risk has always coexisted with wealth.

At this time, there was naturally the joy of getting what they wanted, and they all expressed their willingness to follow Dou Zhao to the British government.

The four discussed some details after passing for a long time. Seeing that it was time for lunch, the married aunt, sixth aunt, and little tail Zhao Zhangru came to talk to Dou Zhao, and the three got up to say goodbye. It's hard to hide the excitement.

Dou Zhao is married, so there are some things that need to be explained.

The sixth aunt and aunt saw that the three of them didn't care, Zhao Zhangru leaned on Dou Zhao's shoulder and said with a smile: "It seems that everyone thinks it's a good thing to follow to the British government!"

The aunt patted Zhao Zhangru on the head lightly, and said: "Everyone is busy with Shou Gu's affairs these two days. If you run around, be careful, I will never take you with me anywhere in the future! "

Zhao Zhangru kept begging for mercy, which made Auntie and Auntie Six, who were very tired from directing the servants to put on dowry boxes since yesterday, couldn't help laughing.

After lunch, the sixth aunt asked Dou Zhao if he had any special requirements for the new house, and she took Su Xin to the British government to hand over the dowry and decorate the new house.

Because my aunt was a distinguished guest, she stayed in the alley of Jing'an Temple. [

After putting on makeup, Fifth Aunt came over with a group of women from Dou's family, but she didn't see Dou Ming.

Dou Zhao didn't want to see her either.Invited Fifth Aunt and others to sit in the hall, Sujuan and others brought refreshments to entertain them, acting neither close nor indifferent, very polite.Instead, it makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

Shitang's sister-in-law, Mrs. Cai, talked about Shen Qing vividly. Everyone laughed for a while, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

Su Lan likes Zhao Zhangru's boldness and lack of airs the most, so she asked her in a low voice: "Do you think we should bring more dry goods such as shark's fin, bird's nest, abalone, bamboo fungus, etc.? Last time when I was in Jining Houfu , seeing their shredded chicken mixed with vermicelli is regarded as a bowl of cold meat on the table..."

This was just heard by Liutang's sister-in-law Guo Shi who was left alone, and she couldn't help but let out a low "ouch".Quietly asked Su Lan: "Didn't you say that the Marquis of Jining is the founding father of the country? Why is the banquet so simple when the Marquis is married?"

"That's right." Su Lan murmured softly, "I even ran to check it out. I made walnut sticks and peanut sticks and made four dried fruits on the table. Not to mention a whole fish, cut by the whole knife meat, not even a fish lip or scallop."

Mrs. Guo also always liked Su Lan's quick talk, so she smiled and nodded Su Lan's forehead.Angrily said: "Your eyes are good!"

Su Lan pursed her lips and grinned.

It caught the attention of Mrs. Fifth.

She looked at Mrs. Cai, who was talking loudly in the crowd, and smiled and asked Mrs. Guo loudly: "What did you say to Miss Biao? You said it so happily! Say it and let us laugh!"

All eyes immediately focused on Mrs. Guo.

Guo's heart panicked when he was seen.His face was flushed and he murmured, "No, I didn't say anything!"

What a wall!

Fifth Wife couldn't help sighing.

Zhao Zhangru decided to make the Fifth Wife miserable, and said with a smile: "We are talking about the banquet in the Marquis of Jining, which is full of pork and chicken, not even fish or dry goods. Their family is really stingy!" My son came to have a wedding, and he was wearing the same dowry clothes as before. This is the time when the seasons change, so their family won’t even save this, right? It’s worse than ours!”

What he said made everyone's speech condensed.

When Mrs. Fifth's personal nanny walked in, she made a lot of noise.

The fifth wife couldn't help but her face darkened, and she said, "What's going on? You're in a panic!"

The nun who was close to her body was already nervous, but she became even more flustered when she heard the words, and said indiscriminately: "Fifth Madam, it's not good, it's not good, the seventh master sent a whole load of silver notes to Miss Fourth as a dowry ..."

There was a sudden silence in the room, and then buzzing discussions started like a frying pan.

No one bothered to pursue her inappropriate words anymore.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Wu frowned, "Talk slowly!"

Those banknotes were prepared by Dou Shiying a long time ago. For fear of being found out by thieves, they were hidden under Gao Sheng's bed after they were delivered by Detong Bank, so Gao Sheng's wife didn't get out of bed for several days. When it was time to make up the makeup, it was carried out, and medicinal materials were temporarily added, so the dowry of 120 liters was collected and carried out of Dou's house.

The Dou family didn't pay attention, and the Song family thought it was because they were afraid of being missed by thieves. When Dou Shishu questioned Dou Shiying, the news immediately spread like the wind to every corner of Jing'an Temple Hutong.

Dou Zhao was so angry that he didn't know what to say!

She pleaded guilty to the fifth wife and the others, and hurried out of the hall, naturally, she did not see the gloomy eyes of the fifth wife, Cai's thoughtful expression, Zhao Zhangru's excited eyes, and Guo's full of envy.
