I rely on the collapse of people to set my life in the hands of the male protagonist

Chapter 53

During dinner time, because the three family uncles were present, everyone had dinner together. Except for Chu Lishu who went out during the day and said that he would return, everyone should be there.

But Lin Qingxu did not arrive for a long time.

I don't know if it's to buy time for my son or I'm really jealous of the dowry. If my wife is not qualified to serve at the table, I can't help but talk about the dowry.

When Mrs. Li heard that Nanny Ding had moved all the dowry to Lin Qinglan's private treasury, she immediately helped her out, thinking that since she and Li had returned to her natal family, the dowry should go to the public property. Then arrange the dowry, and the dowry of the second-married daughter must cover the dowry of other unmarried daughters.

As soon as such remarks were made, the members of the Lin family naturally nodded in agreement. After all, it was beneficial to everyone.

Lin Qingyang was about to help speak, but Lin Qinglan nodded directly and said: "Grandmother said that later, Lan'er will ask Mother Ding to strip off the dowry prepared by the Annan Hou Mansion and send it to the Hou Mansion's warehouse."

Lin Qinglan's expression was calm, and her voice was soft and soft. Since Lin Qingyang didn't know the composition of the dowry, when he heard this, he thought that Lin Qinglan had compromised. As soon as he came back, he was bullied by the concubine's room. He was very aggrieved and couldn't help frowning.

But at this time, Li Shi's voice was sharp and his face was ugly: "What do you mean by that?"

"Grandmother? Did Lan'er say something wrong? Return the dowry my father's Lin family gave me, and keep the dowry added to me by my grandfather's family. Grandma, please rest assured that there is a detailed list from Nurse Ding. Something wrong at home."

Those who were present couldn't understand the meaning of these words, and their faces turned green. Looking at Mrs. Ru's distorted face almost instantly, Lin Qingyang laughed and said: "Sister, why are you talking in such detail, no If you knew it, you thought that what grandma and aunt Ru wanted was for you to confiscate all the dowry? This kind of brazen idea can only be conceived by the greed of your ex-mother-in-law. How can normal people be greedy and give it to their daughter’s mother-in-law? What about the dowry. The younger sisters in my family are too embarrassed to take things from our grandfather’s family as dowry. If someone asks about this..."

When Lin Qingyang said this, his mocking eyes swept over everyone present, "I'm afraid their future husband's family would not dare to ask for it."

In the end, it was something given by the family of criminal officials who ransacked the house. In fact, it doesn't sound good to say it.

Back then, my grandfather's house was an upright palace, which was naturally several levels higher than the Hou's mansion. Looking at the behavior of the Liu family now, one can see that the Zhenbei Wangfu was quite protective of weaknesses, especially the daughter who was married.Not to mention the ten miles of red makeup worn by Lord Yawen when she got married, it was comparable to a princess.Later, King Zhenbei prepared good things for each of her children in advance when they were born.

It can be said that Lin Qinglan's three brothers and sisters have obtained wealth that their own parents could not afford since they were young.

When Lin Qinglan got married, the Zhenbei Palace was still there, so in fact, more than half of Shili Hongzhuang was supported by the Palace. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to reach such an exaggerated level with a daughter of the Marquis Mansion, and she could support a whole family by herself. Yingjia.

The Marquis of Annan only gave one-third of the dowry, so Lin Qinglan would only refund one-third of the dowry.

It is estimated that when Shili Hongzhuang came back, Mrs. Ru was so jealous that she couldn't help thinking about confiscating these things and distributing them to her children.After all, their own natal family doesn't have much background.

It's a pity that although Lin Qinglan is gentle, she is not a real persimmon, let a concubine decide, after Lin Qinglan sees that there is no one worthy of her care in this Lin family, she will not easily give away all her cards .

Mrs. Li wants a dowry, yes, those who come from the Lin family will return a lot of it, but those from the Liu family have nothing to do with the Lin family at all.

Lin Qingyang's words made everyone present feel hot.

An Nanhou didn't make a sound, but his stern eyes swept over Lin Qinglan and Lin Qingyang. He felt that he couldn't control these two children.

"Mother, it's not easy for Sister Lan to get married, so don't change the dowry. If you remarry in the future, there will still be so much."

What he said seemed to be pampering his daughter with a bad fate, but Lin Qingyang knew that he was just trying to save face.At the beginning of Li's proposal, he was considering whether to agree or not. After all, taking the dowry from his daughter was really unpleasant, not to mention that Lin Qinglan herself was prepared, so she naturally refused to agree.

"I still don't need my father. Grandma and Aunt Ru are right. After all, I live and board at home now, so this part should be returned." Lin Qinglan said indifferently: "I didn't think carefully before, and I should take the initiative to deal with it."

Hearing what she said, Marquis Annan agreed.

It's useless to just take back the part of the Lin family. Li Shi gave Lin Qinglan a fierce look, as if she was greedy for her granddaughter's dowry, and caused so much trouble for the Hou Mansion. What's wrong with giving some compensation to the younger sisters? ?Does remarriage still have a good time?Don't feel ashamed?Sure enough, all of them are white-eyed wolves, selfish ghosts, who only care about their own bastards.

The son spoke up, and Li still wanted to show his son face, but he said unforgivingly: "I didn't mean anything else, but I just felt that a family lived together without separation, and the accounts were natural. It’s better to manage it together, and I’m afraid that Sister Lan will hold it in her own hands, and she won’t be able to manage it when she’s young, and Sister Lan is naturally reluctant to share with her younger brothers and sisters the things given by her grandparents.”

Lin Qingyang felt that it was fine that this grandmother didn't like him, but he didn't expect that even the well-educated Lin Qinglan would be so resistant. Is this something a grandmother can say?

Sure enough, when he looked at Lin Qinglan again, his face turned red. Although it was not easy to be manipulated by others, his cheeks were incomparable to these cheeky people.

But to be thick-skinned, Lin Qingyang chuckled, and said directly: "Grandmother is right! I don't want to take the lead! After all, it belongs to the elder sister, no matter how thick-skinned I am, I can't do such a thing. And grandma can rest assured that the elder sister has been the head of the house for three years in the Ying family, and she has managed the Ying family to a flourishing level. I am afraid that the housekeeper's ability is even lowered by the mother."

Li choked suddenly.

Madam Ru didn't expect her plan to fail, and she felt uncomfortable. Standing aside and watching Lin Qingyang stretch her teeth and claws, she held her breath in her chest, "Brother Yang is a boy, so of course I can't have it. I originally thought about it, if we all enter Public account, in the end, the things from your grandparents' house will naturally be distributed to you. When sister Wei gets married, I believe that sister Lan will definitely give some to sister Wei. After all, sister Wei's dowry will be impossible at that time There are so many sisters like Lan."

As soon as these words came out, An Nanhou was the first to say: "What did you say, can this be said at the dinner table?"

This is really a slap in the face, as if saying from the side, without the makeup of the palace, Marquis Annan would not be able to give his daughter face.

But both Lin Qingyang and Lin Qinglan knew that Mrs. Ru was blatantly trying to provoke the relationship between the younger sister and them.

Lin Qingyang looked at Lin Qingwei, hoping that she would not disappoint him, but what he saw was Lin Qingwei with a displeased face.

As if she just remembered that her grandfather's house is no longer there, and she will never have red makeup when she gets married without anyone adding makeup. Ru Furen is thinking about her future, but the eldest sister just wants to keep what her grandfather gave her. hands.

In the final analysis, this is a bit unfair. In fact, she and the second brother are also responsible for those things.

Besides, when the time comes, the elder sister will remarry with so many things, but when it is her turn to marry, she will not be as good as the elder sister, and maybe she will be gossiped by her husband's family.

Lin Qingwei was provoked by a few words, and all kinds of mischief in her heart were written on her face. She couldn't help but sneak a glance at Lin Qinglan, but suddenly met Lin Qingyang's disappointed eyes.

Lin Qingwei became even more angry in an instant, thinking that the second brother just didn't like her, so he defended the eldest sister in everything, and didn't think about her at all.

Just about to stare at Lin Qingyang, she heard Lin Qinglan say in her usual gentle tone: "When my little sister gets married, I will naturally give her more."

That's what Lin Qinglan planned, and she smiled and looked at Lin Qingwei after she finished speaking.

Now Lin Qingwei felt a little guilty, and couldn't help looking away, but murmured in her heart: This is what it should be, if it were me, I would do the same.

Lin Qingyang sighed, "In this case, I have a proposal, Wei Wei, both of us have obtained some fertile land and shops from our grandfather, and neither of us can manage those things. It can’t keep up with the big sister’s side, so why not let the big sister take care of it, anyway, those things seem to be together, and it’s more convenient to manage them together.”

Back then, my grandfather gave a lot of good things as their private property, and the shopkeeper would send the account book to the door regularly. Yuanshen and Lin Qingwei didn't understand it before, so they basically handed it over to the housekeeper for handling. For them, it's enough to get the money to spend .

Some time ago, Lin Qingyang sorted out everything and took over by himself.But Lin Qingwei's...

Lin Qingyang thought of the things in his arms, and glanced from Lin Qingwei to Aunt Ru.

I saw that Lin Qingwei was at a loss for a while, but she didn't react too much, but Aunt Ru's face changed instantly.

Lin Qingyang knew it well, and was about to approach again, when suddenly there was movement at the door, and Lin Qingxu came.

Before Lin Qingxu stepped through the gate, he said loudly, "Second brother, your friend seems to have something urgent to see you."

Lin Qingyang wondered, who?Looking at the past, I was instantly shocked.

Jade barrier?How could he appear here!

Lin Qingyang's face changed slightly, and Yuzhang also saw him. In an instant, Yuzhang, who was described as thin and out of spirits, rushed up and threw himself at Lin Qingyang's feet, knelt on the ground, and pulled Lin Qingyang Clothes hem, crying: "Mr. Lin, help me!"

Lin Qingyang's first reaction was not to look at the jade barrier, but to look at Lin Qingxu, only to see Lin Qingxu was surprised, as if he didn't understand the situation.

"What the hell is going on, who is he!" An Nanhou said in shock.

Such a crying scene, coupled with the appearance of Yuzhang's white-faced niche, everyone naturally thought of something very quickly.

I heard Lin Qingxu said in a difficult way: "He came to our house last night to seek refuge, saying that he was a friend of the second brother, and he also took the personal jade pendant of the second brother as a token. At that time, the second brother seemed to be busy with other things. First bring him into the mansion to temporarily settle down. I wanted to bring the second brother to meet today, but he suddenly fell ill. I was afraid that the second brother would blame me for not being good at greetings, so I had to find a doctor to treat him first, and I was busy with other things I went. Now when he wakes up, I really have nothing to do if I insist on seeing my second brother, so I can only bring him here first."

After Lin Qingxu finished speaking, he said with an innocent face: "Young Master Yu, you should get up quickly. If there is anything embarrassing, just tell the second brother, aren't you friends?"

Lin Qingyang looked at Lin Qingxu with a sneer, and then looked at the shivering jade barrier. "You... came to find me?"

After what happened last time, Yu Zhan should feel ashamed of him, how could he dare to appear in front of him again, unless... Lin Qingxu bought him?

why?To prove that he once took care of a young lady?This... isn't it a secret that everyone knows about his masculinity?Lin Qingyang was a little confused.

Yuzhang is completely out of control now, he is addicted to incense.All of this was Lin Qingyang's fault. He must have accidentally inhaled it and became addicted when dealing with him.Now he just wants to smoke again, but there is no supply, and it's all Lin Qingyang's fault.At this time, someone told him that Lin Qingyang knew the person in charge of investigating the case, and he might be able to get some, so he could only find Lin Qingyang.

"Mr. Lin, the villain doesn't ask for anything, I just ask you to think of the love I have served you so many times, take me in, and give me a bite to eat." Yuzhang tried to be the Qingjun that Lin Qingyang liked the most. Scholar's expression, but facing Lin Qingyang's cold eyes.

But the people around have seen Yuzhang's flattery, wait?mutual affection?What this means is very clear, An Nanhou suddenly said angrily: "Qing Yang, your own friend, take him away and deal with it, this is a family banquet, you can't be presumptuous."

There is nothing wrong with the men of the Great Zhou Dynasty secretly being masculine, but it is ugly if someone comes to your door before they are married.

The appearance of the jade barrier really interrupted Lin Qingyang's plan. Lin Qingyang was thinking about whether to use the jade barrier to expose the truth or take him away temporarily, when there was another commotion outside.

The person who came was the doctor of the mansion.

With a serious expression, he came to An Nanhou's side and whispered something.

An Nanhou changed his face in an instant, and immediately dismissed all the servants, leaving only his family members behind.

"What's wrong with Lord Hou?" The uncles of the three clans asked suspiciously.

It wasn't until then that Marquis Annan slapped the table with fury, glared at Lin Qingyang and said, "Nizi, kneel down!"

Lin Qingyang was really a little confused now, things changed a little fast, he really couldn't react, but he was not willing to kneel casually, "Father, did I do something wrong?"

An Nanhou glared at him, and was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while, as if he was suppressing his anger and thinking about how to deal with it.

"What else can I do wrong? Isn't it already obvious? It's just a disgrace to our Houfu!" Mrs. Li didn't understand the situation, and pointed directly at the jade barrier and said: "Bring some messy people home, you Don't you think you're wrong?"

"It seems that another grandson of yours brought this into the mansion." Lin Qingyang said directly.

Just now, Marquis Annan had asked him to take the jade barrier away, which actually proved that Marquis Annan knew what he was thinking, and it was definitely not because of this that he was so angry now.

Mrs. Li didn't expect that Lin Qingyang would disrespect her so much now, and she was so angry that she almost gave up.He was about to hit someone with his crutches, but An Nanhou picked up the cold dish that had just arrived on the table and threw it in Lin Qingyang's direction.

Naturally, Lin Qingyang would not be passively beaten, and dodged, Lin Qinglan hurried forward to stop her father who was about to strike, "Father, what's the matter? If you have something to say, talk about it."

The people around were also frightened by An Nanhou's anger.

An Nanhou finally pointed at the jade barrier with his trembling fingers and said, "I don't care whether he is a young lady from the Nanfeng Pavilion or a casual lover outside, it has something to do with you, doesn't he? The doctor told me just now that his symptoms of illness are Because of the addiction to incense, that is, the addiction to incense that has caused a lot of ups and downs outside recently, he just ran to you now, tell me if you have been addicted to that thing!"
