Wu Qianjing looked at everyone with sullen faces, and said in a low voice, "Since the matter is about Xiao Ruo's betrothal gift, shouldn't it be better for the third, fourth, fifth and black stewards to settle it in private? It's inconvenient for the second brother to intervene, so it's better to avoid it first."
He knew that there was no way to keep the dowry a secret, and what happened so suddenly, he needed to leave here as soon as possible and find a scapegoat.
Heixin stopped him aloud: "Master, it's not too late to leave after this old servant finishes talking."
Wu Ruo sneered in her heart, Wu Qianjing really thought others were fools, thinking that others would not know what he wanted to do in such a hurry to leave.
Wu Qianjing's heart skipped a beat, and he pretended to be calm and asked, "I don't know what else the black butler wants to say?"
"That's why I started to talk about the purpose of my coming to the Wu clan leader and you to Bujinyuan." Heixin looked at him and said in a tone of memory: "I remember that when we followed the Wu clan leader to Gaoling City, we brought a full thirty The car betrothal gift, the head of the Wu clan and the Wu Guoshi knew about it. On the day of sending the betrothal gift, the people of Gaoling City also witnessed that we sent 30 car betrothal gifts to the Wu family. Accept it, just because the uncle and the second master said that the in-laws and his wife have gone out of the house, and you will accept the dowry instead. However, just now, after learning that the in-laws don’t know the bone dragon nail and the ghost flute, the old slave asked the in-laws When I asked for the dowry list, I found that a large part of the dowry was missing."
He stared at Wu Qianjing and Wu Qianli with narrowed cold eyes: "Master, Second Master, can you explain what's going on?"
Wu Qianjing and Wu Qianli's eyes dodged, and they were too guilty to look directly at the black letter. Just as they were trying to find an excuse to explain, they heard Wu Qianqing say coldly: "On the day when the dowry is received, the people responsible for delivering the dowry are the elder brother and the second brother. Brother and the steward, they told me that people from the Hei family were unwilling to send the dowry into our courtyard."
At that time, they thought that the Hei family disliked their son, and they were very angry. It turned out that his relatives were behind everything.
Wu Qianjing and Wu Qianli were immediately too ashamed to face Wu Qianqing, and their wives also lowered their heads, embarrassed to look at other people.
Guan Tong's gentle face was rarely filled with anger: "The black butler said that he had sent thirty carts of gifts, but we only received twelve carts of gifts from the steward."
What's ridiculous is that Wu Qianjing's housekeeper also explained to them that the twelve-car dowry is considered auspicious.
Wu Ruo pretended to be completely ignorant and shocked: "Why, how could this be? Then, where did the eighteen carts of betrothal gifts go?"
The hall fell into a brief silence.
"This is a big slander. We asked to be sent to the Shuli Hospital, but the uncle and the second master repeatedly blocked us. We can't force it in, so as not to make both parties unhappy, and we can't take the betrothal gift back the same way, so we took the betrothal gift. Hand it over to the uncle and the second master." Heixin was really angry this time: "Also, not only did I find that the betrothal gifts for the in-laws were missing, I also found that the gifts on the gift list of the in-laws had been swapped. "
He took out the gift list he brought from his sleeve and showed it to Wu Qianqing: "Master, this is the dowry gift from our master, and the gift list you asked the housekeeper to show me was not written by this old slave at all. "
Wu Qianqing took it over, looking at the nearly ten-foot-long gift slip, her hands trembled with anger: "It's too much to deceive people, it's really too much to deceive others."
