Chapter 555 Private Property
Chapter 555 Private Property
"Sister-in-law...how about asking my husband and the others to come back..." Xu was also a little dizzy, mainly because the shock was a bit too great.
She looked at these things. Although they were also of the standard of "Ten Miles of Red Dowager", the items were different from each other. The Ten Miles of Red Dowager for an official family would basically cost 500,000 to 600,000 taels of silver at most.
"We have to call them back..." Li felt that he was about to lose the ability to control his brain.
When Mo Jiangqing heard Li's personal maid asking him to go to the main house in Jiang Che's courtyard, he was confused. After confirming again and again, he went to his courtyard with Jiang Che.
Mo Liujin was a little puzzled when he saw that both of them were called back. But he soon stopped being puzzled because Qishu came to invite him.
"What's the matter?" Mo Liujin sat in the main seat, and the maid brought him a cup of tea.
"Father, mother has prepared a dowry for Mingwei and Jinse." Mo Jiangqing said.
"Yes, your mother has mentioned this many times before. What's the matter?"
"Mother had someone deliver the dowry list after lunch, and... you can take a look at it yourself." Mo Jiangqing Mo Jiangche handed the list in his hand to Mo Liujin.
Mo Liujin: "..."
After a while, he laughed in anger. Is this the way she came up with to torment him? No wonder she kept building his private vault when he took her out to relax. So she was waiting for him here?
It doesn’t matter. He can still earn money. As long as she can relieve some of her worries and no longer feel so uncomfortable, that’s enough.
"What do you want me to do?" Chu Qingmeng was also invited to the main hall.
"Mother, your list is far too expensive." Mo Jiangqing was a bit amused. "Ordinary officials would add the betrothal gifts to their daughters' dowries, which would be around 300,000 or 400,000 taels. The powerful would only give 500,000 or 600,000 taels. Even the emperor would only give a million taels when marrying off his daughters. With your money, your son would have more than enough to marry off three daughters."
“…” Chu Qingmeng didn’t know the specifications for marrying a daughter in ancient times. She only knew that there were ten miles of red wedding gowns and one hundred and twenty carriages, but she didn’t know what was inside.
However, if the Fifth Floor and the Qie Family were considered her dowry, then this list would really be nothing.
"Just keep it for you. I agreed that I would prepare a dowry for my granddaughter." Chu Qingmeng didn't care about those things.
Mo Jiangche knew Chu Qingmeng better than Mo Jiangqing did, so he spoke tentatively, "Mother, please keep this list for now. Give it to Jinse when she gets married. Otherwise, if you give it to your son, he'll get jealous."
The father and son heard Mo Jiangche's tentative intention and looked at Chu Qingmeng.
However, the person being tempted was unaware and glared at Mo Jiangche, saying, "Don't be shameless. You're greedy for the child's things. Let Qihua keep them."
Mo Jiangche glanced at Mo Jiangqing, receiving the signal. Mo Jiangqing said, "Mother, you should keep it for now. When the children get married, you can give it to them. It will look good."
"...I gave it to you so that you can see what you are missing. What are you testing here?" Chu Qingmeng reacted slowly, but he also got the hint and decisively found a reasonable excuse.
Mo Jiangche burst out laughing. The entire General's Mansion had already been included, so what else could be missing? "My son is lucky he doesn't have a sister. Otherwise, judging by your attitude, you might even include him in the dowry list."
Chu Qingmeng was amused. Mo Liujin looked at her smiling face and felt relieved. After crying that morning, she seemed to have relieved some of the knot in her heart.
Mo Jiangqing looked at Chu Qingmeng, feeling somewhat helpless. "Mother, we still have to make a living. You've just given the General's Mansion to these two children."
Huh? Chu Qingmeng was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "Those are my private property."
!!!
The father and his two sons all looked at Chu Qingmeng.
Mo Liujin's heart skipped a beat, and the look he gave her instantly became fierce. "Chu Qingmeng, what are you going to do?!"
Chu Qingmeng frowned at his look, "I'm spending my own private property, why are you glaring at me?"
"Where do you want to go?!" Mo Liujin stood in front of her with a gloomy face, and the oppressive feeling unique to military generals came towards him.
Chu Qingmeng glanced at him, ignoring the oppressive feeling, and turned her head away, not wanting to pay attention to him. Where to go, where to go, where can she go?! Go home to find dad!
"Chu Qingmeng! Answer me!" Mo Liujin pinched her chin, forcing her to look directly at him.
"Hiss...it hurts...let go..." Chu Qingmeng was pinched and hurt, and struggled by slapping him randomly.
Hearing her cry of pain, Mo Liujin subconsciously relaxed his grip.
"Father!"
"Father!"
The two brothers rushed over, and Mo Jiangqing used his internal strength to push Mo Liujin's hand away, then hugged him from the side and kept some distance between them.
Mo Jiangche stood in front of Chu Qingmeng, covering her tightly. "Father! What are you doing?! Can't you just talk it out nicely?"
"Father, we can quarrel, but you can't hit mother!" Mo Jiangqing let go of Mo Liujin and stood in the middle to block his sight.
