Resourceful beauty

Chapter 91

Su Yuan didn't even remember how she got out of the gate of the Su Mansion, but she only remembered her father's disappointed eyes and Miao's sneer with disdain.

It's as if, she has always been just that concubine who failed to accomplish anything but failed, and would only embarrass and embarrass the Su family.

"How? How could this be..."

Her whole body was cold, Su Yuan leaned weakly in Zhao Nanny's arms and murmured, what happened during the day slipped past her eyes one after another, as if they were right in front of her eyes, but it was so unreal.

"Princess, don't think about it, just... just treat it as a waste of money and disaster relief. Fortunately, the second lady is pregnant, which is a great joy."

With tears in her eyes, Zhao mama persuaded Su Yuan pretending to be relaxed.

Just now in Cunhui Garden, Miao gave two solutions.

Or, let Prince Qi's mansion choose a new date and marry Su Xiu in April and May. By that time, even if the child is born in the wrong month, the name will be justified after all, even if there are any gossips, it doesn't matter.

Or, everything will be carried out according to the original agreement, and the marriage will still be in October, but Su Xiu will be wronged and the child in her belly will be aborted.

Su Yuan had a headache and chose the latter.

As if she had already expected that Su Yuan would think so, Miao sneered and said, "Princess Qi thinks this is the end? You really think that the people in my Su Mansion are soft persimmons, who can be manipulated by Prince Qi's mansion without daring to say anything." One sound?"

Regarding the matter in the first month, be it Su Xun, Miao family, Su Detao and An family, knowing that the matter has come to an end, they all wisely chose to keep silent. If Su Xiu was not pregnant, the Su family planned to suffer the loss of being dumb. After all, with Su Xiu's status, being able to marry the young master of Prince Qi's mansion is considered a high priority.

For this, Su Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Now hearing Miao's words, Su Yuan knew that her mother-in-law planned to settle the old and new debts together.

"It's all the sins of Zhengru. It's appropriate for Prince Qi's mansion to compensate Xiu'er. It's fine for the mother to just say it. If there is any request, as long as it is not excessive, the daughter will definitely satisfy it."

Su Yuan was subdued, but Miao did not intend to let her go. She raised her eyebrows and looked at Su Yuan. Miao said angrily, "Not too much? My aunt took my niece back to the house to stay for a while. It’s not too much for a white girl with yellow flowers to break her body when she comes back. Is it not too much to be pregnant before getting married? Why, Prince Qi’s mansion is thinking that the uncooked rice has already been cooked. Dare to speak up, right?"

Su Yuan was miserable and shook her head again and again, "Mother is serious. You also know that after that incident, the prince was furious, and now he has taken away my power to manage the inner house and handed it over to the two side concubines. If... If it is too embarrassing , I can’t do anything about it, so I hope mother will be considerate of her daughter.”

At this moment, Su Yuan no longer had the aura of a princess. She only hoped that Mrs. Miao could finish the terms as soon as possible so that she could go back to the mansion earlier. Staying here, she felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles, feeling uncomfortable everywhere.

Mrs. Miao glanced at Su Detao and Mrs. An, sighed and said, "What do you want?"

An Shi just kept crying and said nothing, Su Detao got up, choked up and bowed to Su Xun and Miao Shi, "Everything is up to the father and mother."

Su Xun didn't even look at Su Yuan, turned his head to Miao and said, "You can do what you want, just one thing, this matter must not be leaked, and it must not damage Xiu'er's reputation, nor the Su family's reputation."

Instead of saying it for Miao, it would be better to say it for Su Yuan. Su Yuan muttered for a long time, then raised her head to look at Miao.

Mrs. Miao often sighed, "Nowadays, no one knows about Xiu'er except the people in this house. When you leave this door, you just pretend that nothing happened. When August and September come, those who are planning to marry a daughter-in-law Just make arrangements, and those who are planning to marry their daughters will be happy, but don't blame me for being ruthless if any news leaks out."

Su Yuan and the others nodded repeatedly, and Miao raised her eyelids and glanced at Su Yuan, "This time, it's all your fault, and I won't discuss it with you for the time being. The matter has already happened, so let's figure out how to solve it. Are you Xiu'er's aunt will be Xiu'er's mother-in-law again in the future, after this time, Xiu'er has lost her health and needs to be taken care of, I mean, you can give me 1 taels of silver as compensation for Xiu'er."

Su Yuan suddenly opened her eyes wide.

Mrs. Miao curled her lips and said, "Don't worry, the people in the Su family don't have such shallow eyelids. The 1 taels of silver, except for Xiu'er's health care, the rest will be filled in her dowry. When the time comes, It still belongs to your Duke Qi's mansion, we won't cheat on you. How about it?"

1 taels of silver, thanks to her being able to speak.

Su Yuan said bitterly in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.

With the financial resources of Su Mansion West Mansion and Su Xiu's status, it is not bad to have a dowry of 5000 taels when she gets married, but now she has to pay the 1 taels by herself. Even the daughter-in-law's dowry is subsidized by oneself?

The competition for marrying a daughter-in-law is the dowry brought from her mother's family. Now what does such a daughter-in-law do?
There is a lot of dissatisfaction in her heart, but she has to swallow it because Su Xiu is pregnant. Su Yuan knows that if she does not agree, in a few hours, King Qi will come back from the Northwest Camp with a murderous look, and arrive at At that time, neither he nor his son could be left behind.

They are holding their own pigtails.

Seeing that Su Yuan was silent, she didn't know whether she disagreed or she hadn't thought about it, Miao suddenly slowed down her tone and said, "Or else, let's just leave it at that, and you go back and discuss it with King Qi?"

"No, there's no need, just do what mother said."

Surprised, she looked up at Miao, and Su Yuan hurriedly responded.

But looking back at this moment, Su Yuan felt heartbroken: she should pay the price anyway.The 1 taels of silver, it is clear that it cannot be taken from the prince's mansion, and paid for by himself. Isn't this gouging out his own flesh?
Back in the Yixin Hall, Su Yuan didn't even care about dressing and washing, and lay down on the bed exhausted.

After a while, when Nanny Zhao thought she had fallen asleep, Su Yuan said, "Tomorrow, let Lianqiao's man come to the mansion with the account book."

Lianqiao is Su Yuan's accompanying room, and her man takes care of the dowry shop outside for Su Yuan.

Nanny Zhao responded, covered Su Yuan with the quilt and put down the bed curtain, and went out lightly.

Early the next morning, Guanshi Wu, Lianqiao's man, entered the mansion.

Knowing that Fang Ruyu was pregnant, and knowing that Su Yuan was invited to Su's residence on the way back to the residence, and Su Yuan's ashen complexion when she returned to the residence, Fang Ruxuan intuitively thought that something had happened.

When Steward Wu entered the Yixin Hall and didn't come out until noon, Fang Ruxuan was able to determine what kind of problem Su Yuan had encountered.

"In the past few days, you have been keeping an eye on Manager Wu to see what he does and who he has contacted with."

Hearing that Guan Wu had left the palace, Fang Ruxuan hastily called for Mu Mian to give instructions.

Within two days, Fang Ruxuan learned that Steward Wu had gathered several shopkeepers in Su Yuan's dowry shop, and seemed to have checked the accounts. Seeing that there was no mistake, Steward Wu went to the bank to withdraw 1 taels of silver. ticket.

"1 taels? What is Su Yuan going to do?"

After listening to Kapok's reply, Fang Ruxuan fell into deep thought.

Kapok played with a bamboo card and guessed: "It must be related to the Su Mansion."

It has something to do with the Su family, or the Miao family took advantage of Su Yuan and asked Su Yuan to buy it with money.Or, there was something wrong with Su Xiu.

In the West Mansion, there are only these two people who have been in contact with Su Yuan in the near future. Fang Ruxuan can't think of anything else that requires Su Yuan to spend such a large amount of money.

"Has the bank note been delivered to Su Yuan?"

Fang Ruxuan sat up and asked Kapok.

Seeing Kapok nodded, Fang Ruxuan's face showed a bit of joy, "Since it's ready, she will definitely send it out. No matter where she is sent, we can catch them by surprise. .”

"Miss, what are you going to do?"

Squinting her eyes, Kapok couldn't understand what Fang Ruxuan was thinking.

"She has been taking care of the inner house for so many years, and she still doesn't do much for personal gain? Now that she has no energy to guard against, we can get back as much as we can. You know, this should be brother's money. Since there is a chance for her to spit it out How can you miss such a good opportunity?"

What Fang Ruxuan said made sense.

"Miss, have you figured it out?"

Kapok thought Fang Ruxuan was joking.

Fang Ruxuan nodded solemnly, "Do you think I'm joking?"

Mu Mian shook her head and snickered, for a moment she felt that the girl in front of her was not a noble princess, but a female robber in the forest outside the city.

On the evening of the second day, Mother Zhao left the house in the dark with a box in her arms.

Half an hour later, on the desk in front of Fang Ruxuan, there was a long red sandalwood brocade box.After another cup of tea, the carriage that had not been out of the mansion for a long time rushed back in panic. Mother Zhao panicked and burst into tears from the second gate for the first time regardless of her image.

Kapok pursed her lips triumphantly, "I've been squatting hard for several hours, and the lady won't accept my victory?"

Fang Ruxuan opened the box with a smile.

There are a few pieces of jewelry randomly placed in the box, none of which are valuable. At first glance, it looks like they were given as gifts to the servants. After taking out all the items, you can see that there is a compartment under the box. Take it out Come on, the thick stack of banknotes are all issued by the HSBC bank, and the banknotes are exchanged all over Dayuan.

"It's no wonder those people would rather worry about being robbers after eating their last meal, rather than start a small business in a down-to-earth manner. The feeling of getting rich this night is really good..."

Rubbing the bank note in her hand, Fang Ruxuan said jokingly, covering the box and handing it to Kapok, "Yuanzi bought it, now is the time to recruit people and need money, the money comes at the right time, you take it Go, spend wisely."

Kapok didn't shirk, and just took it.

The master and servant looked at each other, smiling like a cat that has stolen a fish.

In the Yixin Palace, I heard Zhao Mama said that the brocade box was robbed by someone, and the other party acted quickly as if it had been premeditated, Su Yuan's face turned pale and then red, and after a long while, she rolled her eyes and passed out.

　The leak in the house felt like it was raining all night, Su Yuan said: I can't bear it~~~
