The two each took a copy, and were relatively silent for a moment.

Seeing this, Mrs. Jiao quickly stood up from the ground, and said loudly, "Mrs. Cui, our Houfu Temple is too small to afford your big Buddha, so hurry up and leave!"

Mrs. Cui shook the He Li book in her hand, but she smiled smugly.

"Don't worry, I will definitely leave, but I will take away the things that belong to me. For example, my... dowry!"

Dingbeihou's expression changed at that time, and he suddenly felt that he had fallen into a trap!

"What dowry?" Marquis Dingbei said coldly, "You have been married for nearly 20 years, and the dowry has been scattered long ago. If there is any leftover, this time the capital will be moved to the north."

"Master Hou is really good at joking. When I married you, I was dressed in red makeup and brought most of my Cui family's wealth. Even if the 2 taels of silver in the box were used by you to curry favor with your boss, but those antiques and jade wares are not sold in farm shops. It's always there." Madam Cui calmed down and poured herself another cup of tea.

Mrs. Jiao thought of the locked rooms next to the study in the front yard, and guessed something in her heart.

Although Master Hou would not let her take charge of it on weekdays, it was always the property of the Hou Mansion, so naturally he didn't want to be taken away, so he chimed in and said.

"Sister, it's your fault. Master Hou reconciled with you to save face for you. How many years ago do you still care about the dowry? After all these years, you have been married in the Hou's mansion. You, the mistress, don't care. If you contribute, you should contribute something and money, right?"

"It's ridiculous. I've never heard of it. A man takes a concubine, and a concubine and a concubine need to pay for it from their regular wife? Do you want to go out and find someone to judge and let everyone listen to how Dingbeihou is soft?" Fan, how did he rely on his wife’s dowry to live for so many years? Finally, he abandoned his wife, this is simply Tianwu’s number one ungrateful white-eyed wolf!"

Mrs. Cui is not forgiving, and left and right have reconciled, just scolding freely.

At this time, Mr. Liu took out an old booklet.

"Back then, Grand Master Cui specially invited the three of us to his home before marrying his daughter. We inspected the dowry with our own eyes, and we all signed the dowry list, just to prepare for this day. Originally, I thought it was unnecessary, but unexpectedly, It is still the most powerful scholar to know people."

He put the brochure on the table and said with a sneer, "As Jin Rou said, the dowry silver can be spent, but the gold, silver and jade farm shop must be returned!"

Mrs. Cui added, "Most of the gold, silver and jade in my dowry were brought by my mother to the Cui family, and there are marks on them. Don't even try to hide them, Lord Hou, otherwise, if I see one outside in the future, I can tell him about it." Lord, it's a crime of theft. There are also those shops and farms, all of which are on the Weizhou side. The income has been given to the Hou Mansion for so many years. There are not 10 taels of silver, but [-] to [-] taels. I didn't ask for these. gone."

Marquis of Dingbei clenched his fists so hard that he could scrape two taels of frost off his face. He stared at the dowry list, and there was no possibility of sophistry.

He also knew that the Cui family's dowry was precious. For so many years, even if he needed to give a gift, he would try to buy it from outside as much as possible and rarely use it. He never thought that it would be returned to Zhao now!

This simply made him spit out the fat he ate into his stomach!

But it’s not enough to vomit, there have been rumors in the court these days that the emperor is going to use Mr. Liu, a veteran official, if he doesn’t release the dowry today, he will become enemies with the Liu family in the future...

"Okay, I will return the dowry to you, but we will never see each other again in the future."

Mrs. Cui didn't give him any extra glances at all, she just looked at Liu Zhiheng.

Liu Zhiheng immediately took the dowry list, and said with a smile, "Master Hou, please, finish counting earlier, and we will leave earlier."

Marquis Dingbei strode out, Madam Cui was worried and followed.

For so many years, her dowry has been locked in the treasury of the Hou Mansion, and she has already prepared in her heart that the silk, satin, gold and silver must be gone.

But I didn't expect that her jewelry, gold, silver and jade wares, and ancient wooden wares were all there.

It wasn't even lost and damaged by the sudden southward movement!

She really didn't know whether to cry or be happy. She was happy that most of the dowry could be returned, but she was sad because her husband would rather bring these dead things than her.

But Jiao Shi, who chased after her, felt so distressed that she was about to give away so many good things!

Not only that, Liu Zhiheng is still pressing Dingbeihou.

"Master Hou, there is a pair of emerald Ruyi missing from the list. Did Master Hou put it in the study? Take it out quickly. This pair of Ruyi was specially selected by my mother from her dowry when Jin Rou got married. , there is still a mark on it. If Hou Ye sells it, let me know, and I will redeem it."

The Marquis of Dingbei blushed, and holding back his anger, he told Jiao, "The couple in the betrothal gift at that time brought the jadeite Ruyi, and returned it to them!"

Jiao Shi didn't expect to be able to abduct herself, and immediately shouted, "Master Hou, that pair of Ruyi is my betrothal gift, so I can't take it out!"

Liu Zhiheng mocked with a smile, "Oh, it's not easy for Lord Hou. He took the dowry from his first wife, stopped his wife and married a new one. If it gets out, there will be a lot of excitement."

Dingbeihou yelled angrily, "Hurry up and get it back, I will find better supplies for you in the future!"

After all, Jiao didn't dare to disobey, so he could only take Yu Ruyi back with pain in his heart.

Satisfied, Liu Zhiheng closed the dowry booklet, and shook the box containing the deed of the farm and shop in his hand, and said with a smile.

"Master Hou, Jinrou's farm shop has given all the production to the Hou Mansion for so many years. The Hou Mansion is not too stingy now, is it? You can transfer the manpower back, but you should not bring the things in the shop and the grain in the farm with you. Let's go. After all, there is too much commotion, outsiders can't stop guessing, and Master Hou's face is not good-looking."

After all, he didn't care what Bei Hou said, so he called out the manpower he brought and started to move things out.

One car after another, more than 20 cars were pulled!

And Mr. Liu and the others waited until the last car left in front of the Hou Mansion before getting up to leave.

Both Marquis Dingbei and Jiao Shi looked as if they had eaten shit, which was very ugly.

Seeing Mrs. Cui walking gracefully, bringing with her a large sum of belongings, as well as her favorite Jade Ruyi, Jiao was really annoyed, so she yelled loudly.

"Sister Cui, you are no longer a member of the Hou family. From now on, you should live your life honestly. Don't go around and show off in the name of the Hou family. After all, you have lost your innocence. You have lost face. We still want it." !"

Madam Cui didn't want to care about her at first, men are unreliable, but with money by her side, life will not be bad in the future.

Unexpectedly, Jiao Shi would not let her go, so she naturally couldn't hold back this tone before leaving.

So, she turned her head to look Jiao Shi up and down, and asked with a smile.

"My mother only gave birth to me. Where did you come from as a younger sister? Our Cui family has a scholarly family, and my father is a grand scholar at the time. Even if he devotes [-]% of his thoughts to teaching his daughter, he will not fail to teach her." What an idiot like you! In the future, don't make random connections, lest others think you despise the Jiao family and want to change your father!"

"You talk nonsense!" Mrs. Jiao was furious and wanted to scold back, but Mrs. Jiao didn't give her this chance.

As soon as she appointed Beihou, she smiled again, "Oh, I forgot, you have already found a father for yourself! When you are walking outside, you'd better stay far away, otherwise if you don't know, you will think that your father brought you Let the girl go out!"

Now, even Marquis Dingbei was about to vomit blood angrily, "You're presumptuous!"
