After all, this place carries many of her memories. Although there are many bad things, Shangwu has also learned a lot.
Thinking of this, Shangwu was extremely reluctant to leave.
"That's right."
Shangwu suddenly thought of something.
"If you encounter difficulties in the future, go to the General's Mansion to find Miss Sun II Ling Qingwan. She may be able to help you."
"Okay." Shang Chu's eyes turned red.
After saying that, Shang Wu got on the carriage.
Shang Chu looked at Shang Wu's receding back and couldn't help but shed two lines of tears.
"Be good, it's okay, I'm here."
A gentle voice came from above her head. The next moment, Shang Chu was embraced.
…
Because of Luoluo's injury, Lingxiao, Guzhi and others were forced to stay in Jinyun Town for seven or eight days.
Originally Ling Xiao wanted to send Gu Zhi back first, but Gu Zhi couldn't let go of Lu Luo and insisted on coming back with the group.
After this experience, Ling Qingwan and Ling Shenshi also put returning to the Ling Mansion on the agenda.
Ling Qingwan will be engaged to Wei Xun at the beginning of next year, and Ling Xiao and Gu Zhi's marriage has been reported to the Imperial Observatory. During this period, Ling Qingwan should stay in the Ling Mansion.
On the day of returning to Ling Mansion, Ling Xiao was reluctant to leave and went to Ling Qingwan's room to check on her.
At that time, several maids were packing their luggage quickly.
"elder brother?"
Ling Qingwan was a little surprised to see Ling Xiao coming.
"I came to see you." Ling Xiao said gently.
Ling Qingwan walked out of the room and strolled in the backyard with Ling Xiao.
"When you go back this time, I guess we won't be able to see each other for a while." Ling Xiao sighed.
Before, Ling Qingwan lived in the general's mansion, and the two siblings lived together day and night. Now, suddenly there is one less person in the mansion, and Ling Xiao feels uncomfortable just thinking about it.
"We're all in the capital. If you miss me, you can come back to the house to see me. Or we can make an appointment to go out together." Ling Qingwan was open-minded.
"Protect yourself after you go back. The Ling Mansion is not like the General's Mansion. Grandmother is on Ling Chuchu's side, and Ling Chuchu is not a good person. What if..."
"There aren't so many what-ifs." Ling Qingwan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"No matter how bad Ling Chuchu is, has she ever bullied me seriously? Grandma doesn't need to worry anymore. Now that I have stripped her of her power as the head of the family, she stays in the yard every day and can't cause any trouble anymore."
After hearing Ling Qingwan's words, Ling Xiao felt a little relieved.
Yes, although Ling Chuchu is evil-hearted, she is also a brainless person.
Not really. No one can be considered smart in front of Ling Qingwan.
"As for you, don't forget your sister after you get married. Don't think about me, your sister, anymore after you marry a child." Ling Qingwan said with a smile.
"No way! You will always be my sister! No matter what happens, your position in my heart will never change!" Ling Xiao immediately stopped and solemnly promised Ling Qingwan.
Ling Qingwan was speechless.
She was just joking.
Soon, the luggage was packed, and Ling Qingwan and Ling Shen left first and returned to the Ling Mansion.
When the Ling Mansion learned that the Madam and the eldest daughter had returned, there was a lot of excitement.
The Ling family had experienced a lot this year, and the servants in the family had also seen Ling Qingwan's ability. Moreover, Ling Shen had been in charge of the backyard for many years, and everyone in the family had already developed feelings for her.
When the two of them came back, the servants in the mansion were extremely happy.
The situation in Meiyuan was completely the opposite.
"Now that Ling Qingwan is back this time, I'm afraid we have to start dividing the dowry from Ling Shen's family." Ling Chuchu's eyes were slightly dim.
Naturally, she didn't care about Ling Qingwan and Ling Shenshi. She only cared about Ling Shenshi's dowry, but if there was a share for her, how much could she get
"Miss, didn't the lady's dowry already supplement the household expenses?" Zhiqin said cautiously.
"Are you stupid?" Ling Chuchu rolled her eyes at Zhiqin. "Ling Qingwan is such a smart person. If she knew her mother's dowry was used elsewhere, why would she not want to take it back? Otherwise, why would she call the elders of the Ling family and go to such great lengths to lock up my grandmother in Fuluxuan?"
"It's my fault for being stupid. Please forgive me, young lady!" Zhiqin was shaking with fear.
no!
The more Ling Chuchu thought about it, the more uneasy she became.
Ling Shen had not contacted her since she went to the General's Mansion. The mother-daughter relationship between them was as thin as water. What if Ling Shen didn't think of her when she distributed the dowry this time
"Send someone to keep an eye on Lanyuan, and notify me immediately if there is any news." Ling Chuchu instructed Zhiqin.
Zhiqin agreed quickly.
Thinking about how Ling Qingwan got the largest dowry and married the Seventh Prince to become the principal princess, Ling Chuchu was filled with rage.
Sure enough, it is better to marry well than to give birth well.
Ling Qingwan was supposed to be that fool's child bride and live her whole life in the village.
Orchid Garden.
When Ling Qingwan woke up from her nap, it was already getting dark.
Winter nights always come earlier.
"Miss, the lady is here."
Ling Qingwan had just gotten up when she heard Qiao'er's report.
She quickly put on her clothes and went to the main room.
"I heard from Qiao'er that you fell asleep after you came back, so I thought I would talk to you after you woke up. But this girl ran too fast, and she rushed out before I could say anything." Ling Shen smiled.
Qiao'er scratched her head embarrassedly.
"It's okay, I'm awake." Ling Qingwan said with a smile.
She sat down on the chair next to Ling Shenshi. Qiaoer poured tea for the two of them and then left the room.
"Mom, what's the matter with you coming to see me?" Ling Qingwan asked.
It seems that Ling Shen has something to tell her, and it is something important.
Otherwise, Ling Shen would not have said that if she was still sleeping, she would wait here for a while.
"I have divided the dowry and I'll show it to you." Ling Shen said, and asked Madam Pu to take out the document and hand it to Ling Qingwan.
"So anxious?" Ling Qingwan was surprised.
When she came back, she packed up Ling Shen's dowry and asked Hong Shang to give it to Ling Shen, and then went to bed.
Unexpectedly, the dowry had already been divided as soon as I woke up.
When she saw the number on the document, Ling Qingwan was even more shocked.
Ling Shen's dowry was prepared by her personally, and Ling Qingwan knew exactly how much it was. What Ling Shen gave her was enough to account for half of the entire dowry.
"I divided the dowry into three parts, one for you, one for your brother, and one for my old age." Ling Shen explained to Ling Qingwan.
"Your brother has been staying in the general's mansion all year round. With your grandfather taking care of him, he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. As for me, I usually stay in the Ling Mansion and don't need money for anything. It's different for you. When you go to the prince's mansion and become a royal daughter-in-law, you can carry more money with you to support yourself. It's not easy for people to look down on you."
"But this is too much." Ling Qingwan put the letter down. "I can't accept it."
"My grandfather gave me a lot of silver before, and you also gave me many land deeds. I don't lack money at all. It's useless to ask for so much silver. Besides, it's not fair to treat my brother like this!"
"I have already discussed this matter with your grandfather and your brother. It was their idea to divide the property this way. If you don't want to, go talk to them."
