Xiao Youning was leaving for the Yamen after breakfast.
Fu Yin sent two officials to lead the way, and Master Xiao Er insisted to follow in order to save face.
Something happened to a little girl's father and brother. Who else can this second uncle rely on without him? This time following, he did not move a dowry, and Fu Yin was in front of him to be a witness, and the previous rumors were self-defeating.
When the two left the house, Xiao Anning narrowed her mouth unhappy when she heard the news.
Her father didn't even take their sisters to the streets, so he took leave for the annoying spirit of a long room.
Xiao Anning felt uncomfortable, as she rolled her eyes and thought of a bad idea.
Didn't Xiao Youning take a dowry? Now that she is in a state of despair, and she doesn't know how much money to pay back, she can only live on that little silver in the future. In this case, Xiao Youning must be very distressed about the money.
"Lv Chang!" She yelled out, and the maid who was embroidering outside rushed in and asked, "What is the girl's order."
"My third sister keeps the cloud open and sees Yueming. The dowry will be in hand today. It's a good thing. You can talk around the house and let everyone see her back and remember to say something nice."
Lu Chang didn't move hesitatingly, "Didn't the girl hate the third girl? How can people give her joy."
"Just let you go."
When Xiao Anning stared, Lu Chang was scared and ran out.
When people left, she took the time to lean back in the chair, and slowly raised the corners of her lips while touching the bracelet her mother gave yesterday.
She was not so kind to make Xiao Youning happy. When the people came back, the subordinates were all happy. If Xiao Youning didn't pay for the reward, it would naturally be said that she was small.
Even if they live in their second room, everyone has to look down at her.
After all, is it a shabby settlement?
When Xiao Youning arrived at the back of the Yamen, he saw Master Li who had already arrived.
Master Li smiled and called her name, his familiar tone seemed to have never happened before.
Reaching out and not hitting the smiley, Xiao Youning knew that he had to take care of it in front of outsiders. She gave a faint expression of blessing, and did not let anyone make mistakes, and did not have the arrogance to the Li family before.
Master Li saw that she was very calm and felt complicated.
How can he not see that this is superficial skills, for everyone to see.
After experiencing all these things, with this mindset, managing the inner house can be seen without problems, and even the clan wives can be safe.
What a pity, what a pity.
Master Li secretly felt that he did not have this fate.
Master Xiao Er greeted Fu Yin and Master Li and sat aside as the setting board. Fu Yin had already started to do business and took out the dowry list first.
As a result, Yuanguo began to compare with what she had kept, and nodded to Xiao Youning after no problem.
Xiao Youning returned the dowry list, and Fu Yin asked him to carry all the cages up. Master Xiao Er drank the tea and glanced casually, almost choked by the tea.
Isn’t it only sixty-four? This... This looks like a hundred and twenty-eight lifts? !
Master Xiao Er was surprised, but Xiao Youning looked as usual.
This is the amount of her dowry.
It looked like it was sixty-four. It was because her father told him not to be too conspicuous. A batch of dowries were sent to the warehouse and locked up, but the gift list indicated a hundred and twenty-eight.
Fu Yin asked to open the box, Yuanguo began to count the things one by one.
Master Xiao Er looked at the gold and silver jewelry and was dazzled.
However, what I didn't expect was that what was opened at the back was actually a whole box of silver!
Master Xiao Er stood up in shock, why is the long room so rich? !
It's all cash, dowry for a little girl? This is hollowing out the entire Hou Mansion.
When Fu Yin saw Master Xiao Er's look, he smiled to himself.
At first he was shocked when he saw the silver behind him. He thought that Ning Yuanhou was greedy for ink, but he heard Master Li say that it was a reward given by the sage for many years, and Ning Yuanhou had left it to his daughter.
He picked up the silver and looked at it. There was indeed the mark of the household department behind it, and the number was counted. It was still far from the silver rewarded by the emperor.
Now someone is in the same mood as he was then, and he feels somehow comfortable.
Yuanguo returned soon, and she pointed to her own girl with the same dowry list and said: "Girl, there are some things that are not right, but the jewelry is filled with jewelry, and the other things are filled with the same silver. In addition, there are ten more cages, those things are not in the dowry."
Xiao Youning looked at Master Li after hearing this.
Master Li smiled and said, "You Ning, these things should be given to you. It is my intention as an elder, so I will seal them here together."
In other words, it is compensation.
"No need." Xiao Youning changed her gentle attitude just now, her eyes pierced slightly, "I thank Master Li, but I have a bad name for this thing. Take it, it seems that I am very pitiful. But I should thank you You let me stay out of Li’s house for the rest of my life, and save myself from stepping out of Li’s house. But I don’t take it, and I don’t know what’s good or bad. Li’s master has caused me a problem. I’m not human inside and outside.
The little girl looked very likable, but her mouth was always prickly, and Master Li had to get off the stage after being stabbed, his expression was once embarrassed.
At the same time, Master Li was upset.
Ye clan ran back to her natal house because of her anger. If it wasn't for him to come and drag people, she would definitely ask her to say sorry to Xiao Youning in front of Fu Yin. Then it would be justified to give these things.
But it happened that the lady-in-law and thief, for the sake of her own face, didn't care about his life and death, making him embarrassed here alone.
Master Li was speechless for a while, but Xiao Youning smiled when he saw this, and the compelling momentum just disappeared.
"Or else. I won’t be able to accept it, but Master Li will also be willing to take it back. It’s better to deal with Fu Yin directly to help the poor people. Master Li has done a good deed. The people must be grateful, and I will help The people thank Master Li in advance."
It's cheaper to take it back to the Li family. It's better to take it out to do good deeds.
Fu Yin once again looked at Xiao Youning with admiration, the girl was so amazing, and the matter was solved perfectly in a blink of an eye.
Don't the Li family just want a name, but the Liangzi who is bound to the Xiao family is not something that can be settled with money. The little girl from the Xiao family made it clear that she did not forgive, but she did not let the Li family too much to come to stage.
After all, they are all in the capital.
Sometimes take a step back and broaden the sky.
Master Li's expression changed a little, a good word stuck in his throat, and he couldn't get it out. It is embarrassing to be forced to do good in this way.
Then what everyone didn't expect was still to come.
Xiao Youning pointed directly to a box of silver, and said to Fu Yin: "My lord, I will also give out a box of silver and apply it to the back of the yamen. Thank you for helping us with these chores while you are busy."
Fu Yin thought this little girl was too cute.
This turn of words and a box of silver are more useful than giving it to him. After all, it is him who will give him a good reputation and official reputation.
Fu Yin smiled deeper, nodded, and said intimately: "Let's see if these things are sent to you, or are you looking for someone?"
Xiao Youning had thought about it a long time ago, and replied: "May have to bother adults to help me save for a few days. I send it under the fence, it's not easy to occupy other people's place."
Master Xiao Er almost choked to death by her.
"Okay, wait until the officer waits for you to fetch it." Fu Yin didn't think about it at all. He slapped his knee and asked him to put a seal on the previous seal on the spot and reseal the box.
In the end, Xiao Youning found the silver ticket at the bottom of the box in one place, grabbed it on him, and left.
Master Li's expression was difficult to express, and he sat in the back hall for a long time without moving.
Just when Xiao Youning left the back of the Yamen, she saw a familiar figure.
She didn't stop without stopping, and walked quickly to the carriage with a calm face.
But the young man caught up.
"Sister Ning!"
Li Zhiqing ran quickly, without thinking too much in anxiety, and reached out and grabbed her arm.
Xiao Youning was staggered and almost fell. So annoyed, she turned around and slapped Li Zhiqing.
There was a crisp sound from the alley, and Li Zhiqing was stunned by the fan.
Previously, the elders didn't agree with him to invite Xiao Youning back, and his mother sent someone to look at the yard. Finally, she learned that she was back today, so she sneaked out to tell her that she still loved her.
Her heart didn't change, but he made a detour for a while.
The result was a slap in the face.
Li Qingzhi was stunned on the spot. When he recovered, the carriage in the second room of the Xiao family was gone. Only the burning pain on his face told him that he had indeed seen Xiao Youning just now.
Sitting in the carriage, Yuanguo felt that the slap just now couldn't be more joyful. She held Xiao Youning's arm and laughed all the time, and she blew her palm, asking her if her hand hurts.
Xiao Youning finally showed a real smile, leaning on the wall of the car and suddenly said, "It's really a joy to hit someone."
Master Xiao Er sitting aside was speechless for a while.
The way back went smoothly, but when Xiao Youning stepped out of the carriage, he found that the servants in the house were more enthusiastic than ever.
From the door to her return to the yard, everyone was congratulating her.
Yuanguo was confused by the trouble. She didn't know what was going on. She said in surprise, "Girl, if I didn't follow you out today, I would think you were going to marry."
Congratulations all the way, congratulations, congratulations...it made the girl a good son-in-law.
Xiao Youning sat down, poured tea and drank by herself, and said slowly: "Yuanguo, you work harder, go out again to exchange for the broken silver. Then find a restaurant and tell them that they need enough table noodles for a hundred people. The drinks are the best!"
"Huh?" Yuanguo opened her mouth wide. "Girl, who do you want to invite to a banquet? One hundred mouthfuls, where are so many people."
"Go ahead, go back quickly."
Yuanguo went out again while urging.
At the same time, Xiao Anning had heard that Xiao Youning had come back, but none of her rewards had been given. Someone in the house had already begun to say that she was not doing well, and some of the arrangements were missing.
Hey, it really is a shabby settlement.
After lunch, Xiao Anning will go to her grandmother and wait for her to drink soup.
Why did Mrs. Xiao say that she had a headache after she was sleepy night and night, she was pleased in the morning, her elder sister was waiting on the side, and it should be her in the afternoon.
As soon as she walked halfway, she met many people who ran to the side.
There was a woman who was familiar with the people in her yard, and when she saw the maid next to her, she stopped for a while, and then said happily, "Why haven’t the girls gone to the third girl’s yard? The third girl has given out money. Yeah!"
Everyone around Xiao Anning wowed, and Xiao Anning was in a daze, "What did you say?" The words fell, and the point in my heart just disappeared without a trace, and he was stuck in his throat.
