The Evil Prince and his Precious Wife: The Sly Lady
Chapter 9: Fighting with Stepmother
"Shut up!" Murongxue backhanded, and slammed into Qiu Ma's face: "Did you do something wrong, dare to frame the old lady, you are impatient!"
Qiu Ma's side face suddenly appeared a bright red five-finger mountain, hot pain, her eyes flashed a haze, gritted her teeth and said: "Miss, the old slave did not lie, really the old lady ..."
"Dare to quibble!" Murongxue slapped over again, knocking Grandma Qiu down on the ground, looking at her condescendingly, preparing to teach a few words, and a severe rebuke sounded first: "Noisy, What happened?"
She only said a few words, and the people who supported her came. The speed of the Houfu people to report the news was really fast enough. However, the maid in front of the Western Chamber and the grandmother were all around the old lady. Grandma Qiu, who was waiting in front of him, was still eating inside and outside. No wonder that person would come so soon.
Murongxue bent a sneer at the corner of his mouth, turned around casually, and it turned out that the old lady, Du, holding the maid's hand, walked slowly over, her gray hair bundled high, gently held by a green hosta The emerald bamboo pattern is embroidered with an emerald on the forehead, which reflects each other with the hosta, dignified and stern.
Her lips were squeezed tightly, and she glanced at her cheeks with red and swollen cheeks, frowning tightly. "What's going on?"
When Grandma Qiu saw her, it was like seeing the backbone of her heart, her eyes gleaming, her tears like a broken bead, she was ticking down, kneeling on the ground, her head banging loudly: "Old lady , Help, Missy is about to sell the old slave! "
Murong Xue raised her eyebrows and said: "Grandma Qiu opened the warehouse privately without permission and splashed dirty water on her grandmother. I taught her that it was to eliminate the unhealthy winds of the Hou Mansion. People relied on their qualifications to insult the young masters, and they still performed prestige and blessings in the house. "
"Is it?" The old lady swept coldly at the forehead Qiu Ma's forehead, and fell on Murong Xue: "But Qiu Ma's did not lie. I asked her to open the storeroom to get the jewelry. You learned the wrong person. . "
In order to pamper his granddaughter, he ordered his servants to privately open their daughter-in-law's coffers, and their reputation was very unpleasant. Du Shi did not do everything possible to shirk it, and admitted bluntly that he really hated Murong Xue.
If the original owner is standing here, it will definitely be lifted up by Du's harsh accusations and reproach, but she is the 21st century family heirloom, so she will not follow the old godmother ’s way: "Which law does the Qingyan Kingdom The law states that the stepmother can use the dowry of the late daughter-in-law at will? "
Du Di's eyes flashed a little haze, and looked at Murong Xue coldly: "Your mother marries into Zhenguo Hou Mansion, and is the man of Hou Mansion. Her dowry is naturally the property of Hou Mansion. I control the inner courtyard of Hou Mansion. Right to use anything in the inner yard. I do n’t have any suitable jewelry in my warehouse. It ’s reasonable for Qingyan to come here and pick a few pieces. ”
"The Law of Qingyan State clearly stipulates that the death of the wife and the dowry are given to their children. The stuff in this warehouse is left by my mother to my brother and has nothing to do with the rest of Murong ’s family, as long as I and my brother One day alive, you, grandmother, do not have the right to use it privately. "
After the death of his parents, Du Shi threw Murong Xue in Luoxue Pavilion. No matter what she asked, she saw her own life and death. Occasionally seeing her, either picking or reprimanding, did not treat her as a granddaughter, she naturally did not need Du as a grandmother .
"Now, you have opened the storeroom privately and took my mother's dowry without my or my brother's consent. It is a violation of the law of the Qingyan State."
"Really?" Du Shi looked at Murong Xue sideways, his eyes and frowns mockingly: "So, step granddaughter, are you going to sue your step-grandmother to the court and send him to the prison?"
"These jewellery are still there and have not been lost. The step-grandmother does not have to go to the court. Just slapping the bully of the master to beat a hundred boards and sell it." Murong Xue said lightly.
Du's face was dull, but she was mocking Murong Xue. Didn't Murong Xue hear it?It was really a slow-witted idiot who convicted Grandma Qiu even after following her words.
"What are you still doing stunned? Didn't you understand the meaning of the old lady? Drag the grandmother Qiu down, hit a hundred boards, and sell!" Murong Xue snapped.
"Yes!" Two rough maids came forward, tucked a piece of rough cloth into Qiu Ma's mouth, and dragged her out, the speed made people too late to react.
The sounds of the boards and the mourning of Qiu Ma's pain resounded outside the courtyard. The maids and maids looked at each other, and they were chilling: Missy is losing her temper, they don't want to be affected.
The old lady looked terrible and gloomy. She looked at Murong Xue fixedly, her eyes covered with haze.
Murong Xue turned a blind eye to the sandalwood box that contained only fine jewelry: "Cover the box and send it back to the warehouse."
"Yes, yes!" Mammals, the grandmothers agreed one after another, holding the jewelry box and hurriedly ran into the warehouse, lest they walk slowly, Murong Xue blame, let them fall into the miserable end of Qiu Mam.
Looking at the empty courtyard, Song Qingyan's face was pale, and the hands under her sleeves were clenched tightly: the sapphire hairpins and ruby earrings that were about to arrive were all her favorite ones, and they were gone.
"This is not the first time Cousin Qing is getting jewelry here."
A cold voice rang in his ears, Song Qingyan stiffened and looked alertly at Murong Xue: "What do you mean?"
Murong Xue smiled gently: "Cousin does not have to panic. I don't want to teach my cousin, I just want to ask the cousin to return the jewelry I took from here."
Song Qingyan secretly relaxed and scared her, Murong Xue did n’t want to teach her by hand, but the jewelry she took was all carefully selected, and each piece was a treasure. She liked it very much and could n’t bear it. I gave it back to Murong Xue. Moreover, she had worn the jewelry for so long, and it should have been her: "You are my cousin, and those pieces of jewelry should be my presents, please ask me for it, no Feeling too stingy? "
Murong Xue looked at her sideways and said casually: "Cousin comes to Houfu at least three times a month. Every time he takes away two or three hairpins, earrings, collars, jade bracelets, armor and other jewelry. For two years, cousin The jewelry taken from here is not a few pieces, but hundreds of pieces, which can be filled with two or three boxes! "
Song Qingyan didn't take it for granted: "So what? You have a lot of dowry, and you don't lack these hundred pieces of jewelry."
Murong Xue sneered, took other people's jewelry, and was so straightforward and eloquent, so shameless: "Aunt also brought ten miles of red makeup when she got married. There must be no shortage of jewelry. It is better to return my mother's wedding dress Send me another two or three boxes of exquisite jewelry, so that I can also enjoy the generosity of my aunt. "
"My mother's jewelry is mine, how can I give you?" Song Qingyan screamed in shock, realizing that she was fooled in the moment, and was preparing to explain in detail, Murong Xue opened the mouth first: "My mother's jewelry It ’s all left to me. How can it fall into your hands? Before dark, I want to see those jewelry, otherwise, we will see you in the court! "
