After entering the house, Yu Pinyan did not go to see Lin Shi and Yu Miaoqi. After greeting the old lady, he bent down to pick up Yu Xiang and put her on his lap. Yu Xiang turned around and fed him a peanut, then peeled the shell.

"Don't eat it, it's either peanuts or melon seeds all day long. Be careful of getting angry." Yu Pinyan grabbed the plate containing the peanuts and asked Mammy to take it out. He ordered, "Pour Miss Kuding tea."

Ma Ma answered in a low voice, but heard Yu Xiang call again, "Kuding tea is too bitter, add two tablespoons of white sugar." Seeing his brother's squinting eyes, he murmured, "No, no, no, add one spoon, one spoon is enough. It's alright," her brother's eyes were still filled with disapproval, she struggled to the death, "Half a spoonful, no more." As she spoke, she stretched out her sallow fingertips and poked her brother's hard chest.

Yu Pinyan finally couldn't hold it anymore, his stern brows turned into a pool of soft water in an instant, and he said helplessly, "Add half a spoon of sugar." The thumb gently rubbed his sister's lips, thinking that he likes sugar so much, no wonder it is so sweet and delicious, and I don't know. When can I open my mind so that I can swallow it.

It's really a pair of happy friends, a fate that has been cultivated for a hundred years. The old lady shook her head and laughed, and her mood suddenly improved a lot.

Lin's mother and daughter below the hall lowered their heads, not knowing what they were thinking.

After a short while, Yu Siyu came late, followed by Mama who was serving tea.

"I've seen my ancestors, I've seen my mother, why did you call me here today?" Yu Siyu looked forward with anticipation, secretly guessing whether he wanted to talk about his marriage.

"Sit down, your mother has something to say, let's listen." The old lady waved her hand and looked at Mrs. Lin.

Lin drank a cup of tea, then opened the box and took out the ledger, which he slapped on the table, with a very excited tone, "Mother is so happy to look at these ledger, my dowry has been depleted by more than 100,000 taels of silver, and there are still five prosperous families. The shop has also been sold off. If I hadn't taken it back in time, I'm afraid there will only be an empty shell left in a few years! I just want to ask who is in charge of the house? It's such a trick!" Fierce eyes went to Yu Xiang.

At this moment, Yu Xiang was snuggling in her brother's arms, sipping the tea that her brother fed, as if she hadn't heard her accusation.

On the contrary, the old lady laughed, and her voice was full of suppressed anger, "Lin, look at the spine page. The account book in question was from Chengkang twenty-one years ago, and I was still the housekeeper at that time."

This, this is the admission of embezzlement of dowry? Or did the old lady admit it herself? Lin was dumbfounded. Of course she could see the year marked on the spine page, but she didn't think about the old lady at all. The old lady's mother's family is the most famous family of Hongru in the Han Dynasty. Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there has never been a person with corrupt morals. The old lady herself is a model among ladies, and there is no room for sand in her eyes.

How could she do such an ugly thing? Lin firmly believed that Yu Xiang made a false account, and moved the deficit to her housekeeper, so that she could mistakenly think that the old lady did it and suffer from this dumb loss.

She insisted on making trouble, but also had the intention of letting the old lady see Yu Xiang's true face. However, I never expected that the old lady was serious about it without any hesitation. Why did she steal her dowry? Where can it be spent? Simply incredible.

"Mother, you can't spoil a child like this! You even helped her carry such a big thing!" Lin Shi cried out in exasperation.

"Shut up!" The old lady raised the teacup and slammed it on the ground, and a loud bang seemed to hit her heart, causing everyone to shudder.

Yu Xiang buried her face in her brother's arms, and wrapped her arms around his thin and strong waist. Yu Pinyan thought she was frightened, so he patted her back lightly and lowered his head to comfort her, but she saw her wink at him quietly, her small appearance was shriveled.

Yu Pinyan almost couldn't help but let out a low laugh, pinched the tip of her nose lovingly and pitifully, and silently said 'naughty' with his mouth.

Yu Miaoqi hid behind Lin Shi, feeling more and more anxious. When Yu Siyu saw that Lin's family wanted to trouble Yu Xiang, she was still gloating at the misfortune. How could she know that the situation had turned sour, and the old lady herself admitted that she had embezzled Lin's dowry. This kind of shocking secret news scared her half to death, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of panic.

The old lady saw that Lin's face was pale and it was difficult to say anything, so she continued, "Do you know why I misappropriated your dowry? In ten years of Chengkang, Yan'er entered the palace to participate in the election of the prince's companion, and he urgently needed a lot of money to manage; fourteen years of Chengkang, The second room, the third room, the fourth room, and the fifth room came to the door to break up the family. Yaner Lao and I were really weak, and we spent a lot of money to buy the clan elders. Yan'er was wronged for murdering people, and it was another sum of money. From the 17th to 19th years of Chengkang, Yan'er was poisoned three times, and his life was in danger. He took most of his family money for the medical expenses... After Junjie died, the big house was in turmoil. , there is another jackal, tiger and leopard waiting to take the Hou Mansion as its own. In this case, even the one hundred and twenty dowries I brought have already been used up, and yours only has a layer of oily skin. I also personally asked you if you could borrow some dowry. You nodded and agreed. Why, now you regret it? Also, when Yan'er was about to die several times, you burned yellow paper in the house; When you were on the battlefield, you were embroidering a portrait; Yan'er was the commander of the capital, and when you saw the torture and murder, you wanted to bring your daughter back. What were you doing when Yan'er needed you? Do you think he is your son? Now that life is getting better, you come back to ask a teacher to ask for guilt. You don't even see if you are worthy or not, and if you have the face to open your mouth! I feel disgusted when I see you now. You send a handwritten letter of divorce, do you believe it or not? Do you dare to kneel in front of Junjie's tablet and ask him what he thinks?"

The more Lin shi listened, the paler his face became, and when the last few sentences were shaky, he said incoherently, "Mother, I, I was wrong, I don't remember at all. No, no, if I had known earlier... not, I thought …”

She was very confused, and found that what she said was inappropriate, and what she said was wrong, and her son looked at her with extremely indifferent eyes, which almost didn't make her collapse on the spot. It's not that she doesn't care about her son, it's just that she wakes up too late and can't look back.

Yu Miaoqi wished she could turn into a puff of blue smoke and disappear. She thought that she would be able to live a good life by relying on Lin's in the future, but she knew that Lin's unreliability was far beyond her imagination, until she was hated by people. Being tied to the Lin family, it is no wonder that there is no benefit in the presence of the old lady and Yu Pinyan.

Yu Siyu's expression was blank, and he didn't feel much about these things.

Yu Xiang had already been told the real fire, she stepped back from her brother's arms a little, and sneered at Lin Shi, "Why does my mother think that I stole all of these things and planted them on the ancestors? You don't put all the accounts Come and trouble me after reading it. The dowry of the ancestors could not be redeemed, and any surplus in the palace over the years will be used to redeem your dowry. Take a good look at this account book for the 23rd year of Chengkang, five Jianwangpu and the 100,000 taels of silver have all been returned in full, it's really disgusting that you came here to make trouble with the ancestors!"

She took out the ledger with the words "Chengkang twenty-three years" on the spine page and smashed it hard on Lin's head.

Lin Shi cried out in pain, forbearing his surprise and replied, "Let's not talk about it, what is the 200 taels of silver you draw from that shop in the west of my city every month? It's nearly 10,000 taels after four years of transfer, right? "

Yu Xiang shook her head and said word by word, "The mother went to ask my uncle where the two hundred taels are going. My uncle's family is unsustainable, and he comes to the house every month to ask for money. I can’t afford it, and I can’t keep myself from stealing because of the central feeder, so I can only take 200 taels from your dowry. If my mother thinks it’s wrong, she can go and ask my uncle to get it back.”

Lin was dumbfounded. Yu Miaoqi buried her head lower and was even more surprised. Unexpectedly, not only the Lin family is unreliable, but the uncle's family is even more unreliable. Every month, he visits his niece to fight the autumn wind. How shameless it must be! Didn't you just say that wealth can rival a country?

Yu Xiang continued to ridicule, "Mother put all the charges on me without even reading the ledger, and immediately sought the theory of my ancestors, this is obviously wanting to put my face under my feet and trample me! If one or two sentences are missed Listen, I don't have to live in the capital anymore. I'm surprised, obviously my brother and I are your own biological children. Why do you only love the second sister, but treat us as nothing? I have been by your side for 14 years. Who is it? If you talk about mother-daughter love and ask me in private, or patiently read the ledger, how come today’s farce? What my mother did is really chilling!”

She wiped the corners of her eyes pretending to be sad, and got into her brother's arms for comfort. Didn't the Lin family refuse to admit her? She prefers to use the mother-daughter relationship to discourage Lin.

Yu Pinyan hugged his sister tightly, his lips quickly slid across her forehead, and when he looked at Lin Shi again, the trace of warmth in his eyes turned into suffocation, and he said word by word, "I thought we were a family, and we are in danger. It's time to watch and help each other, but it turns out that my mother didn't think so. In this way, I will spread out all the accounts today, so that you and I will not be confused in the future. "

What do you call mine? Is this an attempt to draw a line with yourself? Lin Shi was so sorry that he could only hold on to the front of his shirt, unable to speak in sadness.

Yu Miaoqi suddenly knelt down in front of the hall, kowtowed and said, "I also ask my grandmother to forgive my mother this time. My mother is also in a hurry and confused. I will also have my brother's share of my mother's dowry in the future.

"You're right," Yu Xiang looked down at her, her eyes full of scheming and sarcasm, "Mother's dowry also has her brother's share, but looking at her mother, she doesn't care about her brother at all, and only gives you one. Treat it as a treasure. You have just come back and you have been making a lot of ups and downs. In a few years, you will not put your mother's dowry into the palm of your hand? This can't be done!"

Yu Miaoqi didn't expect her to speak so frankly, she was stunned after knocking her head halfway, she couldn't find any words to refute.

The old lady's brows twitched, and she said immediately, "Xiang'er is right, in a few years, Lin's will not be able to see Yan'er! Lin, if you're really wrong, give the dowry to a few children in front of me. Divided, you can't only favor one." Didn't you say that I stole your dowry? That's good, I'll just swallow it today, it's better than feeding it all into the mouth of the white-eyed wolf Yu Miaoqi.

Yu Siyu, who was sitting on a stool with a wooden figure, instantly became refreshed.

Lin looked at the stern face of the old lady, and then at the cold-faced son, only to feel that the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys were rubbed to pieces, and the pain was unstoppable. She is not willing to divide, she is not divided, I am afraid that she will not be able to be kind today, who made her wrong this time.

Yu Miaoqi didn't show it on her face, but in reality her heart was on fire, and she felt like she was about to vomit blood.
