Prosperous Concubine

Chapter 199 Take the dowry and die in anger (3)
Mu Zhen's friendly smile instantly froze on his face. The nobles of Qinglong Kingdom have always believed that the male is the master of the outside and the female is the master of the house. As Mu Yutang said, she will be married soon, and will definitely be in charge of the inner courtyard after marriage. , She doesn't understand these things, and it is completely reasonable to use the mother's dowry practice, and he can't find any reason to refute.

Most of the wealth of Duke Mu's mansion was in his account, and it belonged to him, so how could he hand it over so easily.

Mu Zhen pondered for a moment, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "You really should learn to manage the inner courtyard. Your mother has always been in charge of Duke Mu's mansion, and the servants are obedient. Well organized, she manages the inner courtyard very well, let her teach you!"

Ah Jing has been in charge of Duke Mu's mansion for more than ten years, and she is very familiar with Xueqing's dowry, but Yutang knows nothing about those wealth. Guarantee that Yutang can't figure it out even if she tries her best. She wants to arrange the dowry and be played by Ah Jing, so he will let her!

Even if one day, Yutang arranges all the dowry and keeps it in her own hands, that wealth will still be placed in Duke Mu's mansion. As long as he says a word, he can get it all back!

"Thank you, father!" Mu Yutang said lightly, looking at Mu Zhen's friendly smile, he sneered in his heart. He knew that the two of them were at odds, and asked Chen Jing to help her organize the dowry. old fox!
Isn't it Chen Jing, the hostess of Duke Mu's mansion, she is not afraid at all, if she has any tricks, just use them.

Mu Yutang has Su Xueqing's dowry list, the first step to get back the dowry is to count the items on the list.

All the property of Duke Mu's mansion was placed in a special large warehouse. The host, Mu Zhen, personally gave the order. No matter how unwilling the hostess, Chen Jing, was, she had to take out the key and open the iron lock.

Under the warm sunshine, the warehouse door was slowly opened, and large and luxurious boxes were quietly placed on both sides, as if soldiers were being inspected. After walking in, the long hem of the clothes flicked across the smooth ground, leaving a shallow trace.

Su Bai opened the box with her small hand, and dazzling rays of light came out of the box, the brilliance was so bright that it dazzled people's eyes, the maids and nuns all narrowed their eyes slightly, appreciating secretly in their hearts, the original wife's dowry is all rare treasures ah.

Jade pendants, pearls, gemstones, hairpins, earrings, and other accessories are all in the box, each of which is very valuable. Mu Yutang admired it repeatedly. The dowry of ancient high-class nobles is really eye-catching. No wonder Mu Zhensong Holding on and refusing to let go.

Chen Jing intentionally mixed up the dowry. The dowry lists included and did not, expensive and cheap jewelry were all mixed together. Within a few days, Mu Yutang would never want to separate completely.

Make things difficult for her?Wasting her time?Ask for trouble!
Mu Yutang frowned, picked up a piece of jade pendant that was not part of the dowry, and threw it out with her hands: "Put it here for a tael of cheap stuff, it's boring!"

"Crack!" The jade pendant fell at Chen Jing's feet and shattered into several pieces. She narrowed her eyes suddenly when she saw the crystal clear green pieces, picked up the jade pendant, and snapped angrily, "Mu Yutang, what are you doing? The beautiful jade is worth several 10 taels..."

Although the jade pendant is not her dowry, it is the property of the public. She is in charge of the entire backyard, and the things belonging to the kilometer will belong to her son in the future. If it is damaged, she will feel distressed.

"Ah, so precious? Why didn't you say it earlier?" Mu Yutang's eyes widened in surprise, and Chen Jing gritted her teeth angrily with innocent eyes: "The box is full of precious jewelry, this jade pendant is eligible to put it in There, will it be cheap?"

Facing her sharp accusation, Mu Yutang's eyes sparkled, and she sighed helplessly: "Ma'am, please open your eyes and look at the pearls in this box, jade pendants, each one is shining brightly, this jade pendant It's dull, and at a glance, it's a cheap fake..."

Chen Jing gasped, and glanced at the jewelry in the box, all of them were of excellent quality, this fine jade was far from them, placed among them, the brilliance was completely covered, it really looked like a fake.

"Sister Xueqing's dowry was mixed up with Kilometer's things. I'll ask the maids to tidy up the things again, and you can count them again!" Chen Jing's voice was low and muffled, as if suppressing her anger, jade pendants, jewelry, etc. They are all fragile, and once they are broken, they can never be restored again. Her plan to rehabilitate Mu Yutang has been put on hold for the time being. First protect the valuables, and there will be opportunities to teach her a lesson in the future.

When Mu Yutang saw Chen Jing's confidant maids and nuns walked into the storeroom, and carefully and carefully separated Su Xueqing's dowry and Gongzhong jewelry, Mu Yutang groaned in her heart. If she had known so much earlier, she wouldn't have to sacrifice that piece of beautiful jade!
After a long while, the maids and nuns separated all the things. Mu Yutang stepped forward, carefully looked at the list and the jewelry in the box, confirmed that they were correct, and waved for the guards to seal the box and carry it out of the warehouse.

Every time a wooden box passed in front of Chen Jing, Chen Jing's complexion became gloomy. She watched helplessly that more than half of the boxes in the warehouse gradually disappeared, and the full warehouse was empty and a little desolate. Gritting her silver teeth secretly, Mu Yutang had the dowry list in her hand, so she couldn't do anything, otherwise, she would have taken away more than half of this box full of top-quality jewelry without making a sound.

"Ma'am!" Mu Yutang walked over gracefully.

The bright smile hurt Chen Jing's eyes deeply, she frowned slightly and said, "You have been correcting the list for a long time, but have you checked everything clearly?"

The solemn and haughty voice was tinged with sarcasm. Mu Yutang didn't take it seriously, and looked at the dowry list with a slight smile: "I'm missing a set of Dongzhu head mask, a set of sapphire head mask, a set of pearl jasper head mask, and a set of plum flower exquisite head mask... ...I checked carefully, and the twelve sets of masks are not in the box, may I ask Madam, where are they?"

Seeing Mu Yutang close the dowry list, Chen Jing looked at her coldly, her complexion was so dark that it was about to drip ink: those twelve sets of heads were finely crafted and brightly colored, worn by famous daughters, Ming women, Yun Jia was ten years old Afterwards, she successively handed over these heads to her. Unexpectedly, Mu Yutang took out the dowry list and prepared to claim them all back!
"Yunjia likes those heads very much. I took them to Yunjiayuan to watch. I will order someone to bring them back immediately!"

watch?It was given to Mu Yunjia to wear. Don't think she didn't see what Mu Yunjia wore every time she attended a banquet.

As Su Xueqing's biological daughter, Mu Yutang wanted to wear her own mother on Kilometer's head, but Chen Jing would find all kinds of reasons to shirk and refuse to give it. She was really generous to Mu Yunjia. This is Su Xueqing's dowry, not Chen Jing's, but their mother and daughter use it so reassuringly, it's really shameless.

After a cup of tea, Mu Yunjia angrily scolded from far to near: "You dog slaves, you dare to grab my head by force, you are so impatient..."
