Chapter 229 Taking Back the Dowry

Upon hearing that the imperial physician had arrived, Madam Xin did not stay here to watch the fun, but led the imperial physician to Rong's courtyard.

When Xin Fan saw the empty warehouse, he almost died of a heart attack on the spot.

"Lan Zhi, you are really great."

"I give you one hour to get everything back, otherwise I will never forgive you."

Lan collapsed on the ground, how could she take it out?

After she took charge of Rong's dowry, she started squandering it, and half of it went into the pocket of her eldest brother from her natal family. Given their personalities, how could they possibly afford to take it out?

In the end, all that could be taken from the Lan family's courtyard was taken out, and Xin Fan even used his own private storage to make up for it, but there was still a shortfall of 20%, which shows how rich Rong's dowry was.

Rong had only one daughter, Xin Rong, while Lan had a son and a daughter. The son was the same age as Xin Rong, only a few months younger than her.

Now that all the second house’s belongings have been compensated to the Rong family, it will be a problem how they will live in the future.

Every month, I can only live on the monthly allowance from the company.

After Lan received Rong's dowry, she never thought of returning it, so she used it however she wanted.

The happier she was with it before, the more distressed she is about to pay for it now.

"Master Xin, please make up the remaining 20% ​​as soon as possible. His Majesty's decree requires everything. We will come again in two days." The eunuch wrote down the missing items and returned the dowry list to Xin Rong.

Xin Fan's face was very dark. He didn't need to think too much to know where Lan had spent the money.

"I don't care who you gave the things to. I give you two days to get them all back. Otherwise, not only will I divorce you, but I will also make your family members go bankrupt."

Lan's head was covered with many hairpins before, but now she only had one hairpin with pearls on it, and her head was lowered.

The eunuch glanced at them, then looked at Xin Rong and said, "Miss Xin San, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that it was the Crown Princess who saved you. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can go to the Crown Prince's Mansion to find the Crown Princess."

Xin Rong held the dowry list and bowed, "Thank you for your reminder, father-in-law. I will go to the prince's mansion to express my gratitude later."

"Father-in-law, you have worked hard. This is your hard work fee. Please accept it."

The eunuch did not refuse, and took it with a smile, "It's not hard, it's a blessing for our family to work for His Majesty."

"Arrange for someone to carry these things to your yard, and buy a few capable guards. Anyone who dares to snatch them will be beaten out." As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, the guards who had been waiting nearby began to carry the things.

This was left by Madam Xin before she went to Rong's place, asking him to obey the eunuch's orders.

The eunuch nodded in satisfaction and said, "Come on, Miss Xin San, I will go with you to see the Madam, and then we can return to the palace to report to His Majesty."

After visiting Rong and knowing that her life was not in danger, he returned to the palace to report.

Seeing the eunuch about to leave, Madam Xin immediately stopped him and said, "Eunuch, I need to explain to you about the second house's harsh treatment of the legitimate daughter. Please help convey it to me."

After hearing this, the eunuch smiled and said, "Madam Xin, we will report this matter to His Majesty. Goodbye."

Yes, Madam Xin did nothing wrong in managing the household expenses. The monthly allowance was never short of money, and clothes and jewelry for all four seasons were sent to the second room. As for how the second room dealt with them, that was none of her business.

After all, if the first wife extends her influence to the second wife, it will easily be criticized.

As for Xin Rong's disappearance, she knew even less about it because Xin Rong never left the South Courtyard of the Second House and rarely walked around the mansion.

The South Courtyard is controlled by the Lan family, so it is easy to keep it secret.

After the eunuch left, Grand Tutor Xin hurried back from outside.

After hearing what happened, he called everyone together, first gave Xin Fan a family discipline in public, then looked at Xin Rong and asked, "Third girl, do you really want your mother to divorce you?"

Xin Rong nodded, "But His Majesty said that we need to wait until mother wakes up and ask for her opinion."

Grand Tutor Xin nodded and said nothing more. He did not ask for the divorce of Lan, nor did he have any intention of controlling Xin Qian.

After this incident, if Xin Fan still favors Lan, it would be better not to have this son.

He stayed in the Imperial College all year round, so he knew little about what was going on at home. He didn't expect it to be so chaotic.

"Third girl, I will write a letter to your maternal family. We can discuss this matter after your maternal family arrives."

The Rong family is also a force to be reckoned with in Jingcheng. The reason why he helped his second son to marry a member of the Rong family was, firstly, because he was impressed by their background, and secondly, because he hoped that his second son could get support from the Rong family.

Unexpectedly, the second brother turned out to be useless. The road was paved for him, but he didn't walk on it.

Xin Rong gladly accepted it. If her maternal grandparents knew about this, they would never let her mother stay here.

……

When Yuanman woke up, it was already the Si hour.

After a quick breakfast, he took Yaoyao and Yuan Erchao to Gu's house.

The Gu family had already made sufficient preparations when they received the invitation from the Crown Princess yesterday.

What surprised them was that the Crown Princess even asked all the branches of the Gu family to be present.

Fortunately, the side branches were not far away and they all rushed over overnight.

When Yuan Man got off the carriage, the Gu family members were standing outside the door waiting.

"Welcome to the Crown Princess."

Yuan Man looked around and nodded, "No need to be polite, please stand up."

Then he stepped forward, helped up the old lady Gu from the main family, and then helped up the old lady Gu from the side branch, "Old lady, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you feeling well?"

Yuan Man didn't expect that they would actually call all the Gu family members in Mingzhou City.

The old lady of the main family is surnamed Qian, while the old lady of the side branch is surnamed Xie.

Gu Xie didn't expect that the Crown Princess would greet her first. She said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I am still in good health."

Yuan Man smiled and nodded, "That's good. Last time, Madam Gu asked me to help Gu Cheng find a marriage, but I haven't done it yet. Madam, you must take good care of yourself and wait for your great-grandson."

Gu Xie narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Okay, thank you very much, Your Highness."

"That boy never comes home all day, and he wouldn't be happy if we arranged for him to meet a girl. If you can introduce one to him, I believe he wouldn't dare to refuse."

Yuan Man smiled and shook his head, "That's not necessarily true. After all, getting married is a major event in one's life, so a wife should naturally choose someone she likes."

"If you haven't met me, it's because fate has not come yet. When fate has come, what you want will come naturally."

Gu Xie smiled and nodded.

Yuan Man looked at Gu Qian who had been standing next to her and said with a smile, "Madam Gu, I apologize for disturbing you today."

Gu Qian was an experienced person after all. Even if she felt unhappy that the Crown Princess greeted a branch of the family first, she would not show it.

"No way, it is a great honor for our Gu family to have the Crown Princess come to our Gu family."

"Your Highness, please come inside."

Yuanman walked in with a smile.

Yao Yao glanced at Gu Zhen, snorted coldly, and followed Yuan Man in.

Gu Song, the head of the Gu family, glanced at Gu Zhen before going in.
