Chapter 1026 Crying children get candy
Zheng Jinshu's face darkened: "Sister-in-law, if you feel that my husband and I are bothering you in the mansion, you can just say so. There's no need to be so sarcastic."
The eldest young lady's wife had not expected that this was just a quarrel between women.
She didn't expect him to be so disrespectful to her.
But for Zheng Jinshu.
Whether you give face to the other person or not depends on whether the other person has shame. If the other person himself has no shame, then there is no need to give it.
Zheng Jinshu doesn't care whether it was yesterday's brazier or today's cup.
He had it all in mind, and thought that some things on the first day of marriage could be discussed later.
But some people just don’t know how to quit while they are ahead.
Besides, there are only a few people in the mansion, and it is obvious who did it.
The eldest young lady's face froze: "Second brother was not like this before. After getting married, he no longer takes his family seriously."
Zheng Jinshu looked at his sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, you know what you did. Why do you expect others to take you seriously even though you did it?"
The eldest young master's wife was not happy: "Second brother, you have to provide evidence when you speak. For so many years, I have been running the house. Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard. How can you slander me like this?"
The eldest young lady's wife looked hurt as she spoke.
Gu Ziyan pulled Zheng Jinshu, trying to stop him from talking since he wouldn't be staying in the mansion for many days anyway.
There is no need to quarrel with the eldest wife and make things difficult for your parents.
Besides, it’s enough for her to feel that her parents think highly of her.
Instead, Zheng Jinshu patted her hands gently and gave her a reassuring look.
"Yesterday's brazier, today's teacup, these little tricks of yours are like a joke in front of others. Do you want me to call a witness?"
"Sister-in-law, have you forgotten what I did before?" The Dali Temple Chief is in charge of solving cases.
If it weren't for the fact that her sister-in-law always said things that disgusted Sister Zi Yan, she could disgust herself but not Sister Zi Yan.
After all, this was something I had obtained by using all means I could.
He married Sister Zi Yan to give her happiness, not to let her come to the house to suffer bullying.
Moreover, people always bully the weak and fear the strong. The more tolerant you are, the more the other party will become more aggressive. Anyway, you are not easy to get along with, so she will still be cautious.
The eldest young lady looked at her husband.
Is he just going to watch his wife being bullied?
It's so pathetic.
Zheng Jinshu continued, "I know what you are upset about, sister-in-law. You just think that my betrothal gift is higher than your brother's. But the one you gave is the same as when your brother married you. The extra sixteen pieces of money was added by me."
Mother Zheng looked at her eldest daughter-in-law and said, "Do you really think so?"
The eldest young master's wife did not speak: "I am not happy about this, but second brother, don't think that this money is not from the public treasury. Even if you paid it yourself, didn't mother choose it from her private treasury for you?"
When Zheng Jinrong heard this, he also scolded: "Manqing, do you know what you are talking about?"
This is simply too much. If a daughter-in-law manages her parents-in-law's private treasury, she would feel unhappy but would never say it out loud like this!
Besides, he believed in his second brother, so if he said no, then no.
Lin Manqing heard that her husband didn't speak for her.
She became famous too. She did this because she was worried that her mother would subsidize the second wife, and then they would inherit less.
In the end, he not only didn't help himself, but also scolded himself.
Zheng's mother was too lazy to talk to her any more. She only believed what she thought, so she didn't believe anything anyone else said.
So she was too lazy to talk nonsense: "So what do you want to do?"
It seems that I was not very happy about my youngest son moving out before, but now it seems.
They are doing pretty well living out.
Zheng Jinrong stared at Lin Manqing and told her not to speak.
Then I heard Lin Manqing say, "Of course, mother will have to subsidize my sixteen-ton betrothal gift from your private treasury."
Of course, the subsidy has to come from the private treasury of the parents-in-law. Otherwise, if it is subsidized from the public treasury, it is just like taking money from the left pocket into the right pocket, there is no difference.
When everyone heard this, they looked at Lin Manqing as if she was weird.
At this time, Zheng Qi wanted to persuade his mother, but she just said, "Okay."
Zheng Jinrong quickly waved his hand: "Mother, no need."
Lin Manqing nodded happily when she heard it: "Thank you, mother."
Look! The crying child gets candy, but if you don’t fight for it yourself, you will get nothing.
All I can say is that it was too early for Lin Manqing to be happy.
Then Zheng's mother said, "Since the betrothal gifts have been paid, let's pay the dowry as well! After all, you are the eldest sister-in-law, how can you be more shabby than your younger sister-in-law!"
Lin Manqing was surprised: "What?"
In the end, Zheng's mother ignored her and just looked at Gu Ziyan: "Xiaoyan, your dowry is forty-eight pieces of silver. In addition to the ordinary shops, there are two shops with considerable income. What else?"
Gu Ziyan understood.
He said truthfully: "In addition, I have two hundred thousand taels of silver notes in the bottom of the box." He had tens of thousands of taels before.
Then there was an immediate dividend of 100,000 taels, plus Sister Xia Xia gave a lot more last time.
In fact, it is more than 200,000 taels.
When everyone heard this, they thought that the Second Young Master's wife's family background was really too rich!
Apart from anything else, those two shops are simply cash cows!
Mother Zheng continued, "Well, I remember your dowry was sixteen taels of silver! Since you want the same, you can add thirty-two more! As for the shop that is a cash cow, it is hard to find, so forget it, then let your mother's family add another two hundred thousand taels of silver to the bottom of the box! After all, this dowry is your private property, no one will touch it, and it can also keep you from being inferior to the second wife. You will have no objection now, right!"
After saying this, Mother Zheng looked at Lin Manqing.
Zheng Jinrong didn't say anything else this time.
You shot yourself in the foot.
Lin Manqing looked at everyone looking at her.
I suddenly felt ashamed.
How come she has no objection?
She was very dissatisfied because this was a sign of disrespect for her mother's dowry.
This is simply going to hollow out her family's resources!
Lin Manqing's face turned blue and purple.
Mother Zheng continued, "Old lady, ask yourself, have I ever been harsh on you as your mother-in-law over the years? You still want to make fun of everything. Ever since the second son got engaged, you feel that you have suffered a loss in everything."
"What exactly did you lose? The Zheng Mansion will belong to you, the eldest son of the family, in the future. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
"You don't see the slightest advantage you get, but you remember the slightest loss you suffer. With your current state, can you take responsibility for the future of the Zheng family?"
Lin Manqing listened to this.
What does mother-in-law mean?
Could it be that she still wants her second brother to inherit the family business?
Why?
"Does mother-in-law still want my second brother to inherit the family business?"
"Why not? If the eldest son can't afford it, then someone who can take responsibility can take over."
"No, why? You are partial to the second wife. You want her to inherit the family business just after the wedding."
Zheng Jinrong felt that his wife was really confused.
Get up quickly.
He looked at his second brother apologetically.
Then he stepped forward and covered Lin Manqing's mouth.
If she wasn't pulled away, who knows how many shocking words she would say.
The three children looked at their grandparents above with worry.
Zheng Jinshu looked at Zheng Qie and said, "Qe'er, study hard. This mansion will be inherited by your father in the future, and then by you."
Zheng Qi pursed his lips and stood up, looking at Zheng Jinshu and the others and bowing: "Second uncle and second aunt, I apologize to you on behalf of my mother. Mother might have been tired at the end, so her words were a bit too much."
"It's adult matters, kids, don't worry, take your sister and the others back!"
"Then I'll take my leave." Zheng Qi left with his two sisters.
