Chapter 143 Who Stole My Dowry
Sure enough, after hearing what Song Nansheng said, Old Madam Zhou slowly calmed down.
Song Nansheng was also helping Old Madam Zhou to calm down and gently patting her back.
Jiang Wanqing held Xiaoxiao in her arms and slowly sat aside.
He looked coldly at Old Madam Zhou and Song Nansheng.
After a long time, Mrs. Zhou finally returned to normal.
She also realized it belatedly and sorted out all the interests involved.
Madam Zhou raised her eyes, and her gaze darkened: "Jiang Wanqing! I underestimated you!"
Jiang Wanqing seemed very kind in the past.
No one would have thought that she had such a vengeful side.
I just wanted to take one of Jiang Wanqing's dowry items.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Wanqing dared to give away all her beloved jewelry!
Jiang Wanqing smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, you are too kind."
Old Madam Zhou only felt that her fist had hit cotton.
At that moment, he asked in confusion: "You also said that you are the only wife of the Xingchang Marquis Mansion, and everything in the Xingchang Marquis Mansion will be yours in the future.
Why would you give away something as valuable as mine? Aren't you giving away your own things?
You should find an opportunity to go to the old ladies next door and find an excuse to take those things back."
In Old Madam Zhou's heart, she was still thinking about the money.
Jiang Wanqing showed a mocking look: "How can you take back something you gave away? Besides, even my own things, my mother-in-law can give them away, how can I guarantee that those things will really belong to me in the future?"
When Mrs. Zhou heard that Jiang Wanqing was unwilling, she suddenly became anxious.
He took a deep breath and said, "Zi Gu is already dead! Those things will naturally all be yours in the future! As long as you go and get them back, they will all be yours in the future."
Old Madam Zhou was only thinking about coaxing Jiang Wanqing first and getting those things back.
After all, it was Jiang Wanqing who sent it out in his own name.
If you go to ask for it yourself, you will lose face.
It would be better to let Jiang Wanqing do this.
Even if it was embarrassing, others would just say that it was Jiang Wanqing's idea.
Jiang Wanqing raised his eyebrows.
I didn't expect that the jewelry I gave away before would be liked so much by Old Madam Zhou.
I have been begging myself to this extent, and I also want to get those jewelry back.
Under Mrs. Zhou's expectant eyes.
Jiang Wanqing shook her head and slowly said, "Then I won't go either. They are just a few small items. For ordinary people, they may be valuable, but for me, they are nothing. I don't want to go."
Jiang Wanqing once again clearly refused.
Madam Zhou's face fell again in an instant.
Song Nansheng, who had been standing beside Old Madam Zhou, sighed deeply.
Looking at Jiang Wanqing's eyes, she said with a complicated tone, "Cousin, my aunt's health is not as good as before. Please don't make her unhappy anymore."
Jiang Wanqing then turned her attention back to Song Nansheng.
He asked in confusion, "Cousin, what a coincidence. When I saw that pair of jade bracelets with silk carvings today, I felt that they were very similar to the one you wore before. It was the one you pawned at Wuyou Pavilion. I wonder if you still remember it?"
Jiang Wanqing suddenly mentioned the bracelet.
Song Nansheng felt a moment of panic in his heart.
Could it be that Jiang Wanqing discovered something?
At first, she didn't know that the bracelet would be Jiang Wanqing's dowry.
The bracelet was also brought by Zhou Zigu suddenly.
He said it looked very nice, so he gave it to himself.
Song Nansheng never imagined that this bracelet would have such a great origin.
If she knew, she would naturally not show off in front of Jiang Wanqing.
Fortunately, Jiang Wanqing did not notice her bracelet at that time.
Or maybe, it was because Jiang Wanqing's dowry was so huge that even she herself had forgotten it.
When he thought of this, Song Nansheng felt somewhat unbalanced in his heart.
Because of a pair of jadeite bracelets with carved silk patterns, she even went to her mother's home to borrow gold to redeem them.
But Jiang Wanqing was surrounded by so many valuable jewelry that she didn't even notice the pair of jade bracelets with carved patterns.
Jiang Wanqing's eyes flickered, and she suppressed all the unhappiness in her heart.
He slowly explained, "They are just similar. My bracelets are not as exquisite as my cousin's."
Jiang Wanqing couldn't stop smiling when she heard this.
It's obviously the same pair of bracelets.
But you have to say it in such a high-sounding way.
Jiang Wanqing didn't expose it.
He just smiled and asked, "I remember my sister's bracelet. The material is also very good. It looks the same as mine. For jewelry like this, my cousin should go to Wuyou Pavilion as soon as possible and redeem the bracelet."
Song Nansheng curled his lips: "This is natural."
She wanted to redeem the bracelet.
But the bracelet had already been redeemed by herself and returned to Jiang Wanqing.
However, he still had to find a way to pay back the 5,000 taels of gold he owed.
Song Nansheng glanced at the silent Madam Zhou.
He frowned.
It was Old Madam Zhou who said before that she would get five thousand taels of gold.
But unexpectedly, now even Madam Zhou’s own jewelry is about to be lost.
However, there was still no news about his five thousand taels of gold.
She still doesn't know how to repay the money to her parents' home.
Just then.
Suddenly a servant ran into the hall in panic.
Madam Zhou propped up her head, her face dark as she vented her anger: "Useless thing! What are you making so much noise for!"
The servant came to Jiang Wanqing.
He knelt on the ground and said hurriedly, "It's bad, Madam. We have searched your dowry storeroom twice, but we still can't find two gold hairpins."
Can’t find the gold hairpin?
Jiang Wanqing frowned but didn't.
Song Nansheng, who was standing by, also looked a little unnatural.
Old Madam Zhou became a little excited and sat up straighter. She glanced at Song Nansheng out of the corner of her eye.
The two people's eyes intertwined, and they seemed to be chatting silently.
Old Madam Zhou didn't understand why there were two gold hairpins missing from the dowry.
However, when Old Madam Zhou saw Song Nansheng avoiding her gaze, she had some bad guesses in her mind.
In particular, Song Nansheng had been avoiding her sight.
The next second, Jiang Wanqing stood up from his seat.
He frowned and said, "The dowry has been well kept, how could two of them be missing? Who dared to touch my dowry? I'm going to report it to the police!"
