Dongfang Jing twitched the corners of her mouth, and a sneer appeared on her lips, "The ghost king is acting perversely, maybe what is the reason for his actions?"
"Of course it's for you, girl." Jin Qiu pursed her lips and smiled, "My girl probably doesn't know yet, but His Majesty wants to postpone your wedding, but my uncle is so anxious...he insists on coming as planned! It's just that the servants of Prince Gong's mansion are exhausted, I also want to marry the girl back home as soon as possible, and pamper her well!"
Dongfang Jing didn't know why, but when she heard this, she got goosebumps all over her body, and always felt that Zongzheng's move to help Su was uneasy and kind.
After about half an hour.
Lu Qiao ran back anxiously, and knelt down in front of Dongfang Jing with a plop.
Dongfang Jing frowned, "What are you doing? Get up and talk!"
"My maidservant has done something wrong, please punish me!" Lu Qiao's face was extremely heavy.
Jin Qiu quickly helped her up, and asked, "Girl asked you to get up and answer, so stop kneeling!"
Luqiao didn't dare to make a sound, but Dongfang Jing had already guessed a bit, and asked tentatively, "Is there something wrong with my mother's dowry?"
"Miss!" Lu Qiao cried bitterly, "The servant went back to find the pawnshop, but found that the pawnshop was closed, saying that the shop had been transferred, and the boss fled with the money! The servant went to the government, trying to make the pawnshop close. Help to find the boss... who knows, the boss left Beijing more than a month ago, and many people have gone to the government to look for it! The Yamen sent people to look for it for more than a month, but there was no trace! Madam's dowry, I'm afraid I won't be able to find it!"
Dongfang Jing frowned, "He opened the door for serious business, why did he run away with the money?"
Lu Qiaolian shook her head, "I don't know, I heard that someone bought his shop at a high price, enough for him to eat and drink for the rest of his life. He was probably just being greedy..."
"Who bought his shop?" Dongfang Jing continued to ask.
Lu Qiao said, "The shop is being refurbished, and only a group of craftsmen are working. The servants went to ask, but they said that they took money to do things, and they didn't know who the owner of the shop was. It was all the fault of the servants, who didn't find out who the owner of the pawn shop was. If you don't know the details, you took the wife's dowry to pawn without authorization, the slaves deserve to die, the slaves deserve to die!"
Luqiao blamed herself.
Dongfang Jing reached out her hand and took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped her tears, shook her head helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, stop crying! At that time, I was also in a hurry to spend money, pawning my mother's dowry, which is mine. Meaning, it has nothing to do with you. You can't blame you for this matter. Since the shop was only transferred, it means that my mother's dowry is still there... Let's just wait. When the shop reopens, we can find a way to get it back! "
"I'm afraid the new owner of the shop will not accept it." Luqiao sobbed.
"Heh..." Dongfang Jing laughed softly, "Is there any businessman in Daning Kingdom who is not interested in money, not to mention that his shop is still open on the most prosperous South Street in Ningdu. Let’s do it? As long as we can pay enough ransom, it’s not a problem to get my mother’s dowry back, so don’t worry about it anymore.”
"Really?" After hearing this, Luqiao gradually stopped crying.
Dongfang Jing nodded, "Don't worry."
Afterwards, she smiled and said to Luqiao, "I'm a little hungry, go to the kitchen and get some snacks."
"Yes." Luqiao hurried out of the room.
Jin Qiu took a step forward, and asked with clear eyes, "Why did the girl push Lu Qiao away?"
