Chapter 296: It’s Okay to Owe Money, but Not to Pay It Back!

When the generous gift from Duke Xingguo's Palace was delivered to General Ningyuan's Palace, Qin Wanru was walking in the garden with Shui Ruolan.

Shui Ruolan was in good spirits, Qin Wanru had people adjust her well, Di's mother and daughter were locked up, and the house was much quieter, which was actually a lot quieter.

"Madam, Mrs. Xingguo has given a generous gift to Miss Qi and asked you to send someone to check it out!" A woman hurried over to report! The gift list in hand was presented.

"A generous gift?" Shui Ruolan raised an eyebrow but did not accept it.

"Yes, it is a generous gift. It has been delivered to me at this time. There are several large boxes. I asked Mrs. Shui to choose a date. Mrs. Xingguo will take Miss Qi over to the house!" the mother-in-law reported.

"Mother, let Qi Rongghi's people order it themselves!" Qin Wanru suggested.

Although Qi Ronzhi lives in his own house, he must not be his official lady. It is not good for the Qin House to handle such property matters too much. If there is nothing wrong, forget it. If there are some mistakes, the things inside will be entangled. If you don't know clearly, it may even make people think that Qin Mansion is greedy for property.

These words touched Shui Ruolan's heart. She nodded and told her mother-in-law: "Send the generous gift to Miss Qi's yard, and send the gift list as well!"

Shui Ruolan was also wary of Mrs. Xingguo. After returning from the palace, Qin Wanru told her about Wang Yishu, whom Mrs. Is it the old lady or Shui Ruolan who no longer believes in Mrs. Xingguo Gong.

As for the matter of her sending generous gifts in such a big way, Shui Ruolan didn't want to take over. This was originally a matter between the Xingguo Palace and the Qi Palace. If Qi Rongzhi didn't live in the Qin Palace, it would have nothing to do with the Qin Palace.

The mother-in-law responded and was about to retreat when Qin Wanru suddenly stopped the mother-in-law again, then turned to Shui Ruolan and said, "Mother, please send the generous gift directly to the Qi Mansion. Although Qi Rongzhi lives in our house, she is not alone. It’s inappropriate to have those things in our house after all!”

"Wan Ru means to ask people from Qi Mansion to do the counting?" Shui Ruolan said thoughtfully.

"This is the best way. All the generous gifts are sent to the Qi Mansion. Even if there is anything later, it has nothing to do with us. No one in our house has a hand in it!" Qin Wanru suggested with a slight smile. It was not that she was too cautious. Yes, but when facing the Duke of Xingguo, he had to be cautious.

Mrs. Xingguo is like a poisonous snake hiding in the grass. She doesn't know when she will spring out. There is no harm in being cautious.

"Okay, then let's do it!" Shui Ruolan also understood what Qin Wanru meant, and immediately nodded and told the mother-in-law again, who followed the order and retreated.

"Mom, how's the check on Mrs. Di's dowry list going?" Qin Wanru asked, looking at her mother-in-law's retreating back.

"Nothing was found, but this loss is really suspicious!" Shui Ruolan shook her head in confusion. She was also married. The old lady was not kind to her at that time, and she also had two shops in her hands. Shui Ruolan didn't know anything about the business, how could she keep losing money and keep filling money in, and this was a shop owned by a married girl.

But this tent was so well made that she couldn't find any flaws.

"Can't mother find out?" Qin Wanru asked softly.

"I can't find out!" Shui Ruolan shook her head and said extremely innocently. Even if she knew there was a problem, she couldn't find anything after repeated searches. It was very frustrating.

"What does mother mean?" Qin Wanru asked calmly, reaching out and gently supporting Shui Ruolan, telling her to be careful of a pebble under her feet.

Shui Ruolan stepped over the pebbles and gently pressed the handkerchief on her forehead. There was a slight sweat on her forehead. She was a little tired from walking. She raised her head and looked around, and pointed at an octagonal in front of her. The pavilion said: "Wan Ru, let's go sit in front!"

"Mother, let's not go to the pavilion. It's windy over there. Let's go sit in the empty yard!" Qin Wanru shook her head and looked at the empty yard on the left.

There are few masters in the Qin Mansion, and there are many empty courtyards. The courtyard in front of you is not small, but no one lives in it. The masters only take a break when they wander here during their free time.

The only masters who like to hang out recently are Shui Ruolan and Qin Wanru who is accompanying Shui Ruolan. The old lady should mainly rest her body, so she is not that willing to move.

Shui Ruolan nodded, and the two of them took a few maids into the courtyard and sat down in the main room in the middle.

The maids were busy lighting the stove to warm the house.

There was also a maid who lit a stove to boil water, because Shui Ruolan would come here to rest for a while in the past, and all the utensils were available.

There is no one living in this courtyard, and the layout inside is mainly for enjoying the scenery. The large window opposite the main house is open and somewhat transparent. You can see several plum blossoms in full bloom on the opposite side. The red plum blossoms are blooming on the strong branches. It's a very elegant place to rest.

The maid brought tea and retreated outside. Qin Wanru personally reached out and poured a cup of tea for Shui Ruolan, and then poured a cup for herself. The tea was fragrant!

"Wan Ru, how about we send the dowry list to your eldest sister?" Shui Ruolan said with a smile.

"Eldest sister's dowry list?" Qin Wanru smiled, her eyes twinkling.

"Yes, it's your eldest sister's dowry list. Your eldest sister's marriage to Prince Yong-Kangbo has been finalized. It's impossible to change it. Naturally, her dowry must be prepared!" Shui Ruolan picked up the item! After taking a sip from the tea cup, he put it down and said meaningfully.

Qin Yuru's dowry was actually prepared early. When she was in Jiangzhou, Qin Yuru got married once. The dowry was first carried to the Qi Mansion. After that, the marriage between the two mansions was not harmonious. In order to compensate for the Qi Mansion's After the loss, this part of the dowry was never brought back and naturally stayed in Qi Mansion.

The dowry of a noble lady from a noble family is often prepared after she has grown up a little. Qin Huaiyong was considered to hold a lot of power in Jiangzhou at that time. Qin Yuru's share of the dowry is not small, and there are many good things in it, but now they all remain. In the Qi Mansion in Jiangzhou, she had to prepare again for getting married.

It's just that the dowry prepared again will not be better than Jiangzhou's, or even much worse. There is no doubt about this.

The Qin Mansion who just arrived in the capital is no longer the powerful General Jiangzhou Ningyuan. In such a short period of time, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy many things. Shui Ruolan understands the meaning, and Qin Wanru understands it. , even Mrs. Di would understand, but Qin Yuru, who wanted to be the wife of the noble Prince Yong-Kangbo and became one of the most noble ladies in the capital from then on, might not necessarily understand.

"Has your father prepared the dowry?" Qin Wanru asked with a gentle smile, her watery eyes like a little fox.

"Your father has already prepared it. He originally planned to show it to your eldest sister, but it's just a lot less!" Shui Ruolan said bluntly. She knew that the dowry had shrunk a lot even when she saw it, but she couldn't help it. All expenses in the Qin Mansion are very tight now. Qin Huaiyong had to squeeze out such a dowry himself, and the old lady also added many private houses in it.

But even so, there is still no comparison with the previous ones.

"Compensate Mrs. Di's shop to the eldest sister?" Qin Wanru already understood what Shui Ruolan meant.

"The dowry is too small, so naturally we have to supplement it, but there is not much left in the house. Even the old lady has given up her private room. Yuru is my sister's only daughter. It is her duty to take out the dowry and put it on her quilt. You don't care about it. How can it be? If you are not a good sister, you will still be calculating!" Shui Ruolan said calmly.

"It's best for mother to think so!" Qin Wanru said with a smile. This was originally her idea. She also thought about secretly wanting Shui Ruolan, so she didn't need to hint at it now.

There is a problem with Di's shop. The Yong-Kang Bo Mansion embezzled the money from her dowry shop. This will be sent to the Yong-Kang Bo Mansion again, which can be regarded as making them suffer the consequences.

And everyone else knew very well that Qin Yuru could not bear the disadvantage of being dumb. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and her watery eyes became a little deeper.

She was very happy to see Shui Ruolan come up with such a method on her own. If Shui Ruolan was still so weak, how could she protect her child? Without any means, she would end up in the Yong-Kangbo Mansion and the Di family. In their cooperation, it’s just like the last life!

"What to do with the batch of silver that needs to be paid first?" After thinking about it, Qin Wanru reminded Shui Ruolan that Yong-Kangbo Mansion had this reason. From this point of view, General Ningyuan's Mansion was short of Yong-Kangbo Mansion. money.

"Just owe it first, we are always a family, and we can discuss anything if anything happens!" Shui Ruolan said. After seeing her ex-husband's family, she became more and more clear that it was impossible for her and Di to coexist. That being the case, she doesn't just take hits and not fight back.

"That's true. Mrs. Di married her father, and now the eldest sister is marrying Prince Di. The two families are well connected, and they are such close relatives, so we won't lose face. Let's pay back the money. !" Qin Wanru smiled even more happily, and she and Shui Ruolan looked at each other, and both saw the meaning in the other's eyes.

It’s okay to owe money, but not to pay it back!

Moreover, this kind of thing will be Qin Yuru's dowry from now on, and will be sent to Yong Kangbo Mansion together with Qin Yuru. No matter how much the previous shop was ruined by Yong Kangbo Mansion, it will be under the control of Yong Kangbo Mansion in the future. If there's anything fishy here, it's Qin Yuru's business.

It has nothing to do with Qin Mansion!

Now that the matter was agreed upon, Shui Ruolan and Qin Wanru talked about Qin Yuru's dowry in detail. In the past, this kind of thing was discussed by the old lady and Shui Ruolan, but Shui Ruolan didn't hide it this time. Qin Wanru explained it to Qin Wanru in detail bit by bit. Shui Ruolan had already regarded Qin Wanru as her backbone, and felt uneasy if she didn't tell Qin Wanru about this matter.

While listening, Qin Wanru helped Shui Ruolan add a few things that she hadn't noticed, and Shui Ruolan nodded repeatedly.

While they were talking, a maid suddenly ran in in a hurry and reported in the corridor, "Madam, Mrs. Yong-Kang Bo wants to see you!"
