Chapter 296 You can owe money, but can you pay it back?
When the generous gift from the Duke Xingguo Mansion was delivered to the General Ningyuan Mansion, Qin Wanru was walking in the garden with Shui Ruolan.
Shui Ruolan was in good spirits, and Qin Wanru made someone adjust her well. The mother and daughter of Di were locked up, and the mansion was much quieter, but it was much quieter.
"Madam, Mrs. Xingguo Duke gave me a generous gift to Miss Qi, and you will send someone to count it!" An old woman hurriedly ran over to report the report! The gift list in her hand was presented.
"Good gift?" Shui Ruolan raised her eyebrows but did not answer.
"Yes, it's a generous gift. At this time, I've been sent here. There are several large boxes, saying that I'm asking Mrs. Shui to choose a day. Mrs. Xingguo's wife wants to take Miss Qi to the mansion!" The woman reported.
"Mother, let Qi Rongzhi's people order it themselves!" Qin Wanru suggested.
Although Qi Rongzhi lives in her mansion, she is not her own official lady. The Qin Mansion is not good at handling such property matters. If nothing is wrong, it would be fine. If there is something wrong, the matter here will be confused, and it will even make people feel that the Qin Mansion is greedy for property.
This was very much in Shui Ruolan's heart. He nodded and ordered the woman: "Take the gift to Miss Qi's yard, and give the gift list too!"
Shui Ruolan was also wary of Duke Xingguo's wife. After returning from the palace, Qin Wanru talked about Wang Yishu's wife who asked her to take care of that day, saying that Wang Yishu actually wanted to harm him as soon as he met. From then on, both the old lady and Shui Ruolan no longer believed in Duke Xingguo's wife.
As for the fact that she gave generous gifts so much now, Shui Ruolan didn't want to take over. This was originally a matter between the Duke Xingguo Mansion and the Qi Mansion. If Qi Rongzhi had not lived in the Qin Mansion, she would have no relationship with the Qin Mansion.
The old lady was about to retreat when Qin Wanru suddenly called the old lady again, then turned to Shui Ruolan and said, "Mother, just send the generous gift to Qi Mansion. Although Qi Rongzhi lives in our mansion, she is not without a home. It is inappropriate to put those things in our mansion!"
"Wuru means to let the people from the Qi Mansion go and count it?" Shui Ruolan said thoughtfully.
"This is the best way. All the gifts were sent to the Qi Mansion. Even if there was anything in the future, it had nothing to do with us. The people in our mansion were not involved in it!" Qin Wanru smiled and suggested. It was not that she was too cautious, but that she had to be cautious when facing this Duke Xingguo's wife.
This Duke Xingguo’s wife is like a poisonous snake hidden in the grass. She will jump out at any time. It’s no harm to be cautious.
"Okay, then that's it!" Shui Ruolan also understood what Qin Wanru meant, and nodded and ordered the old lady again, and the old lady retreated as she was ordered.
"Mother, how did Mrs. Di check the dowry list?" Qin Wanru asked as she looked at the old lady's back as she left.
"I didn't find out anything, but the loss is really suspicious!" Shui Ruolan shook her head in confusion. She had married too. At that time, the old lady was not very nice to her and had two shops in her hand. Shui Ruolan was not ignorant of the business on the shop. How could she keep losing money and filling in the money? Moreover, this was a shop where she married a girl.
But this account is extremely skillful and she can't find any flaws.
"Mother can't find out?" Qin Wanru asked softly.
"I can't find it!" Shui Ruolan shook her head and said innocently. Even if she knew there was something wrong with this kind of thing, she could not find anything after searching it, which was very frustrating.
"What does mother mean?" Qin Wanru asked quietly, reaching out and gently supporting Shui Ruolan, asking her to be careful of a small stone under her feet.
Shui Ruolan stepped over the pebbles and gently pressed her forehead with a veil. She felt a little sweaty on her forehead and was tired of walking. She looked up and looked at her left and right, reached out to a star anise pavilion in front and said, "It's like, let's go and sit in front!"
"Mother, let's not go to the pavilion, it's windy there. Let's go to the empty yard to sit!" Qin Wanru shook her head and looked at an empty yard on her left.
There are few masters in the Qin Mansion, and there are many empty yards. The yard in front of me is not small in size, but no one lives there. I will only take a short rest when my master comes here in my spare time.
The only masters who like to hang out recently are Shui Ruolan and Qin Wanru who accompanied Shui Ruolan. The old lady should focus on resting, but she is not so willing to move.
Shui Ruolan nodded, and the two of them took a few maids into the yard and sat down at the main house in the middle.
The maids quickly set up the heating stove and warmed the room.
There is also a maid who boils water in the furnace, because in the past, Shui Ruolan would come here to rest for a while, and she is ready for a while.
The yard is not occupied, and the layout inside is mainly for viewing the scenery. The large welcome window opposite the main house is open, which is a bit transparent. You can see a few plum blossoms blooming opposite. The red plum blossoms on the strong and powerful branches are a very elegant place to rest.
The maid brought the tea and retreated outside the door. Qin Wanru personally reached out to pour a cup of tea for Shui Ruolan, and then poured a cup himself, and the tea smelled so good!
"It's like, how about we send the dowry list to your elder sister?" Shui Ruolan said with a smile.
"Big sister's dowry list?" Qin Wanru smiled, her eyes shimmering.
"Yes, it's your elder sister's dowry list. The marriage between your elder sister and Prince Yong-Kangbo has been decided. It's impossible to change it in this way. Naturally, her dowry must be prepared!" Shui Ruolan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with some meaning after putting it down.
Qin Yuru's dowry was actually prepared early. Before in Jiangzhou, Qin Yuru had married once. The dowry ceremony was first carried to Qi Mansion. Later, the marriage between the two mansions was unsatisfied. In order to compensate for the losses of Qi Mansion, this part of the dowry was not carried back and naturally stayed in Qi Mansion.
The dowry of the noble ladies of the aristocratic family often began to be prepared after they grew up. Qin Huaiyong held great power in Jiangzhou at that time. Qin Yuru's dowry had a large share, and there were many good things in it. But now they were all in the Qi Mansion in Jiangzhou. She had to prepare for her marriage now.
But the dowry that is prepared will not be better than that of Jiangzhou, and it will even be much worse. Don’t doubt this.
The Qin Mansion, who had just arrived in the capital, is no longer the General Jiangzhou Ningyuan who held the heavy power. In such a short time, many things were not necessarily bought even if they had money. The meaning of Shui Ruolan, Qin Wanru, and even Di would understand it, but he was determined to become the noble wife of Prince Yong-Kangbo, and from then on, Qin Yuru, who had several noble daughters in the capital, may not necessarily understand it.
"Has the dowry father been ready?" Qin Wanru asked with a gentle smile, her watery eyes were gentle, like a little fox.
"Your father has already been prepared. I originally planned to show your elder sister, but there was a lot less!" Shui Ruolan said bluntly. Even if she saw the dowry, she knew that it had shrunk a lot, but there was no way. All expenses in the Qin Mansion are now very tight. Qin Huaiyong could have such a dowry and he squeezed it out. The old lady also added a lot of private houses in it.
But even so, it is still not comparable to the previous ones.
"Compare Mrs. Di's shop to my elder sister?" Qin Wanruji understood what Shui Ruolan meant.
"The dowry is too small, so naturally I have to pay some compensation, but there is not much in the mansion. Even the old lady took out her private house. Sister Yu Rushi's only daughter, she should take out the dowry and put it out. You don't care. Could it be that my sister will still be able to do it!" Shui Ruolan said calmly.
"It's best if my mother can think so!" Qin Wanru smiled. This was originally what she thought, and she was thinking about the dark water Ruolan. There was no need for her to hint.
There was something wrong with Di's shop. Yong-Kangbo's mansion greed for money from her dowry shop. He would send it to Yong-Kangbo's mansion again, which would make them suffer a loss.
Moreover, everyone knows that Qin Yuru can't do it if he can take this mute, but the corners of his lips curled slightly, and there is a little deeper in his watery eyes.
She was very happy to see Shui Ruolan come up with such a way. If Shui Ruolan was still so weak, how could she protect her children? If she had no means, she would only fall into the joint efforts of Yong-Kangbo Mansion and Di, just like in the previous life!
"What should I do if that batch of silver ounces should be placed first?" After thinking about it, Qin Wanru reminded Shui Ruolan that Yong-Kangbo Mansion was taking this reason. From this point of view, General Ningyuan's mansion lacked a lot of money for Yong-Kangbo Mansion.
"Just thank you for now. You are always a family, and you can discuss things even if you have something to do!" Shui Ruolan said. Since she saw her ex-husband’s family, she has become more and more aware that it is impossible for her and Di to coexist. Since this is the case, she is not blindly hit and not fighting back.
"That's true. Mrs. Di married her father, and now the eldest sister is going to marry Prince Di again. The two families are considered to be the best. They have such a close relationship. They won't be able to make a fuss. Let's pay back the money!" Qin Wanru smiled even more and more happy. She looked at Shui Ruolan and saw the meaning in the other party's eyes.
It’s OK to owe money, but don’t pay it back!
Moreover, this kind of thing will be Qin Yuru's dowry in the future, and he will be sent to Yong-Kangbo Mansion with Qin Yuru. No matter how much the shop was defeated by Yong-Kangbo Mansion, it will be under Yong-Kangbo Mansion in the future. Even if there is anything wrong with it, it is Qin Yuru's business.
It has nothing to do with the Qin Mansion!
Since this matter was agreed, Shui Ruolan and Qin Wanru told Qin Yuru in detail about Qin Yuru's dowry. This kind of thing was discussed by the old lady and Shui Ruolan in the past, but Shui Ruolan did not hide it from Qin Wanru, and explained it to Qin Wanru bit by bit. Invisibly, Shui Ruolan had already regarded Qin Wanru as the backbone and felt that this matter was uneasy if he didn't say it to Qin Wanru.
While listening, Qin Wanru added a few things she didn't notice for Shui Ruolan. Shui Ruolan nodded repeatedly.
