Chapter 610 Making up your mind
Zhuo's body became a little stiff. She raised her head from his arms and said, "Brother Yu, you...you still want to go to fight with the Japanese people?"
"Well, the emperor has this intention." Chu Xuanyu looked down at his worried little wife, with an apologetic face, lowered his head and kissed her gently on the forehead.
Then, he said softly, "Don't worry, we Da Sheng have made 30,000 muskets. These muskets are enough for me to lead my troops and defeat the Japanese country."
Zhuo's stiff body slowly softened, "Every time you go to war, I worry. Brother Yu, you have to promise me that you will save your life no matter where you are. Ayu said, as long as you live Now, everything is possible. If my life is gone, everything is gone.”
Chu Xuanyu hummed, "Our eldest son married a good daughter-in-law."
"That goes without saying." Zhuo rolled her eyes at him.
Her charming eyes are like silk, and her cheeks are like sunset.
"Baby." Chu Xuanyu's blood boiled, and bursts of heat rushed to the lower place. He turned over and fell on Zhuo's body.
The silk was fluttered, and the red curtain was charming | naughty,
……
"Master, the third wife came to Beijing and said she wanted to show the fourth girl her husband's family." Sanba rushed in with a smile, gossiping with twinkling eyes.
"The third wife also brought a lot of things, including eight or nine large carriages, and hired a team of escorts to deliver them. The servants all inquired about it. Most of the things in the carriage were the old lady's dowry. They said they were from before. I agreed to make a dowry for the fourth girl. The third wife came to visit her husband’s family and even brought the third girl’s dowry.”
Xia Zihan sat still, doing needlework quickly in her hands without even casting a glance at Sanba.
She just asked, "How did the eldest lady react?"
She remembered that the Xia family had a quarrel when the old lady gave Xia Ziying eight thousand taels of silver as a dowry. This time, the old lady wanted to give Xia Zilan more as a dowry, and the eldest aunt was afraid that she would not let it go.
The eldest aunt is the eldest wife of the Xia family, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xia family, and the most honorable daughter-in-law of the Xia family. Her daughter Xia Ziqing is also the eldest daughter of the Xia family. It stands to reason that Xia Ziqing's dowry should be the largest among the sisters. of one.
However, in the end, her dowry was the smallest among several sisters.
It's strange that the eldest aunt would be willing.
Why does she work so hard every day to take care of this and keep the house in order so that her mother-in-law can be comfortable without having to worry about anything, eat well, drink well, sleep well, and be a happy old man? But in the end , what she got was that her daughter did not have as much dowry as the daughters of the other two families.
Isn't the old lady's behavior obviously a slap in the face?
She has the Chu family as her backer, and Xia Ziqing cannot compare to her, but the two sisters Xia Ziying and Xia Zilan, let alone Xia Ziying, are a piece of junk. They were given to the Cao family for the sake of fortification, so the old lady had no choice but to give her an extra share. Dowry, but... where is Xia Zilan?
Why should she be given so much dowry?
"The eldest lady was not happy, so she went to find the old lady." Sanba had an expression of "I admire you so much" and his eyes were bright when he smiled, "The old lady said that it was her dowry, and she could give it to whomever she wanted. The eldest lady fainted in anger.”
Mrs. Xu was driven away, leaving only the eldest wife and daughter-in-law at home. On weekdays, the old lady would always try to tease the eldest daughter-in-law when she didn't get her way.
At this moment, I saw that my eldest daughter-in-law was getting angry and ignored the housework.
"Hmph, do you think the Xia family can't move without you?" Mrs. Xia snorted angrily, and then handed over all the housework to her daughter-in-law Guo. The angry Mrs. Liu was even more worried about the housework. reason.
"The house is almost in chaos. Mrs. Guo, although the housekeeper has a brush, the servants in the house, under the hint of Mrs. Liu, treat Guo Mrs. Guo in both positive and negative ways. They are always playing tricks on others, which makes Mrs. Guo very angry. All the servants of the Xia family have been sold out. "For such a big matter, the eldest and second masters of the Xia family cannot rely on her.
"You...you are uniting together to bully me just because your third brother is not around, right?" Guo is not a light-hearted person either. "It's okay if you don't sell them, then you will treat this bunch of slaves as slaves." Give me the deed of betrayal.”
As long as she has the prostitution contracts of this large group of slaves in her hands, humph... let's see who among them dares to go against her in a double-dealing manner.
The eldest man of the Xia family thought for a while and agreed, but he put forward a condition, "These people are all brought by my mother from Jiangning City. They have been with the Xia family for decades, at least a few years. If you have feelings for the Xia family, even if you have a contract to sell them, you cannot sell them out at will."
"I know." Mrs. Guo waved her hand casually.
But as soon as he turned around, he betrayed several of Liu's confidants behind everyone's back.
When Mrs. Liu found out, she got into an angry quarrel with Mrs. Guo, and then sent people to find out the whereabouts of those people who had been betrayed by Mrs. Guo.
I don’t know where Guo sold it. Liu searched for it for several days but couldn’t find it.
When the eldest son of the Xia family learned that Mrs. Guo had sold her servant, he was furious. He immediately went to Mrs. Guo and reprimanded her.
"Uncle, even though I am your sister-in-law, I don't scold my sister-in-law indiscriminately. Those people have done something wrong. Don't I have the right to sell them?"
"They are just a bunch of slaves, and they actually alerted the big boss to come and stand up for them..."
In turn, Mr. Xia was ridiculed.
Mrs. Guo held the old lady's hand. Although the old lady was not happy or regretted giving the family's middle income to Mrs. Guo, she never scolded Mrs. Guo. This made Mrs. Guo even more arrogant and domineering. They all overcame Liu.
Moreover, seeing that Xia Shiming divorced the Xu family, Xia Shiming came up with the idea again, and even wanted to marry a cousin of her natal family whose husband had died to Xia Shiming.
"You mean, the third aunt actually wants to be a matchmaker for my father?" Xia Zihan stood up in shock, looking at Sanba with a cold look in his eyes.
Sanba was so frightened that he trembled and thought, "Yes, I heard this very clearly. This is what the third wife said when she was discussing with her wet nurse in the room."
Xia Zihan's face was filled with dark clouds and a stormy sea.
Huh, what a Guo family, she actually dares to take advantage of her father, it’s really...
"Find something for Mrs. Guo to do so that she can have nothing to worry about all day long." Xia Zihan said.
The day after she gave the order, Mrs. Guo came to her door and asked to see her.
"What is she doing here?" Xia Zihan sneered. Is she here for her father's marriage?
"Master, if you don't want to see her, I will send her away." Seeing that her face was not very good, Si Cao said carefully.
Xia Zihan put down her sewing and said, "No, let her come in."
