Things have reached an impasse.
At this moment, Wen Dahai walked out from the inner room next to him.
He handed over his hand and reported back: "Miss Wen has some medicinal powder that can make snakes riot. I checked it out and found out what Oriole brought over."
"Xiao Liu?" Wen Guanbin was in disbelief.
Ruining Wen Qinglian's marriage will do no good to the big house!
After a long silence, Wen Guanbin finally refused to doubt Wen Qingfang.
But Wen Dahai said: "Master, I checked carefully. Someone dug a hole in the cage brought by the Guo family and blocked it with straw. If it weren't for those medicinal powders, the quinoa snake wouldn't be able to survive." riot."
"The things brought by the Guo family have always been in their hands?" Wen Guanbin asked again.
Wen Dahai nodded: "Yes."
Wen Guanbin fell silent. As a result, there were also people in the Guo family who were dissatisfied with the marriage.
He looked at Guo Er and his wife coldly.
Mrs. Guo quickly explained: "Mr. Wen, it's really not us! We have already given so much money! How could we ruin this thing at the last minute!"
"Where's Uncle Guo?" Wen Guanbin asked solemnly.
Mrs. Guo was speechless and began to look around, refusing to answer directly.
Seeing Mrs. Guo like this, Wen Guanbin was filled with annoyance and cursed: "This is what you call foolproof!"
"Mr. Wen, please calm down. We don't know when Dafang bribed our people..." Mrs. Guo's explanation was of no use.
At this moment, a servant came from outside to make a call.
The steward of the Guo family's main house has arrived.
Wen Guanbin had no choice but to stand up and greet him.
What came in was an old man with gray hair and a healthy spirit.
He first glanced at the person kneeling on the ground, and then specifically glanced at Wen Qinglian, who was motionless.
"Master Wen." The butler was very polite.
Wen Guanbin quickly asked him to sit down: "Butler, sit down and say, sit down and say."
But the housekeeper of the Guo family raised his hand and stopped him: "No need! The master sent me here just to tell Master Wen that we can't get married today!"
"How can that be done!" Wen Guanbin immediately refused.
But the housekeeper sneered repeatedly and squinted at Guo Er and his wife next to him: "Mr. Wen, this marriage was decided when the old man was still alive. Our master didn't agree with it at all!"
Wen Guanbin's face turned blue and white.
He naturally knew what was going on back then.
In order to fight for more property, the second brother of the Guo family took advantage of the old man's confusion and went around proposing marriage to Guo's parents and grandchildren.
In the end, he and his wife cooperated internally and externally, and settled on the marriage, fulfilling the old man's wish.
Soon after, the old man passed away, and the second brother-in-law of the Guo family began to fight for the family property.
They even used the marriage between the Wen family and the Guo family as an excuse to divide most of the Guo family's property.
But even so, the Guo family's second house is getting worse and worse, and the Guo family's first house is getting better and better.
The Wen family was not satisfied at first, but later they decided to rely on the Guo family's main house.
The reason is the betrothal gift from the Guo family that is tempting enough.
When the housekeeper saw that Wen Guanbin still had some self-awareness, he stopped his anger and said, "What happened today is considered unkind to our Guo family. From now on, bridges will return to bridges and roads will return to their original destination!"
When Wen Qingzhu saw this, he felt very fond of the Guo family's big house.
It seems that the Guo Family Dafang is still trustworthy.
"No!" Wen Guanbin still refused to agree.
But the butler said with a smile: "I know that Mr. Wen is not willing to withdraw the betrothal gift."
Of course Wen Guanbin would not admit it when he was poked into his heart like this: "This is the promise I made with Mrs. Guo back then!"
"But today, everyone in the capital knows how the Wen family treats the third lady. They don't let the Guo family's eldest daughter come to welcome the bride, but let the Guo family's second eldest daughter, who has separated, come to welcome the bride. Those who don't know think that It’s the second master of the Guo family who wants to take a concubine!”
These words were very rude and left Wen Guanbin speechless.
The butler continued rudely: "If Mr. Wen is shameless, what is the face of our Guo family compared to Mr. Wen who is an official? I, Mr. Wen, should just take out the marriage certificate from that year and end it separately."
Wen Guanbin had a sullen face and didn't know how to respond.
At this moment, Mrs. Liu, who looked tired, was helped out by Grandma Du.
She walked to the main seat, glanced at Wen Qingzhu, and then turned to Guo Guojia: "The marriage contract has been finalized. Even if the mistress hasn't married yet, our Wen family will send it to her!"
"Old Madam Wen!" Butler Guo's tone became calm, and after thinking for a while he said, "If the Wen family is willing to break off the engagement, how about our Guo family only needs you to return 80% of the betrothal gift?"
As soon as these words came out, not to mention Mr. Liu, Wen Guanbin was also moved.
In this way, Wen Qinglian can use it again.
Wen Qingzhu immediately frowned and glanced at Wen Qinglian worriedly.
Butler Guo left a very good impression on her. If Master Guo's illness could be cured, Wen Qinglian would have found a very suitable husband.
Soon, her fears came true.
Liu's thoughts were exactly the same as Wen Guanbin's, but she was more greedy.
"Only 20% refund!"
Manager Guo frowned: "In that case, Mr. Wen and Mrs. Wen, let's meet at the Yamen!"
Mrs. Liu quickly stopped him: "Wait! Isn't there still room for bargaining?"
Manager Guo looked at Ms. Liu with a sneer, but Ms. Liu didn't care at all and said another number: "30% refund."
"No! At least 70%!" Manager Guo finally wanted to break off the engagement.
Wen Qingzhu next to him couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but hold his forehead.
Is Mrs. Liu pretending to be tricked by Dafang and trying her best to plunder it from elsewhere
It was only when she glanced that she met Jiang Yuancheng's pitying gaze.
Wen Qingzhu immediately sneered. How could Jiang Yuancheng still pity him
She turned around and whispered to Fu Lie, "Let's go."
Jiang Yuancheng's eyes darkened, why did Wen Qingzhu not want to see him so much!
Wen Qingzhu originally wanted to see how Wen Guanbin would investigate this matter, but now he started bargaining with the Guo family.
She felt she didn't need to stay any longer.
When Wen Guanbin turned around and walked out, Wen Guanbin did not stop him. He was more concerned about how much the Guo family was willing to give in.
Just as he left the gate of Fushou Hall, Jiang Yuancheng followed him out.
"Qingzhu!"
Wen Qingzhu frowned and looked at Jiang Yuancheng displeased: "Your Highness, the relationship between us is not so good, right?"
Who knew that Jiang Yuancheng said: "Father has already said that we will get married next year."
Wen Qingzhu's face darkened.
Then Jiang Yuancheng stared at Fu Lie unkindly: "Although my father has not granted me the marriage yet, the matter is basically settled. You are my prince's concubine. You'd better not be too close to other men!"
This is a warning to Fu Lie.
Fu Lie's eyes darkened and he did not give in even a moment.
Wen Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "It turns out that His Highness the Fifth Highness values me so much. In that case, I have a difficult matter here. Can you please help His Highness the Fifth?"
"What's the matter?" Jiang Yuancheng was a little surprised.
Wen Qingzhu said with a smile: "Your Highness, please go as far as you can. It's best not to appear in front of me before we get married!"
After saying this, Wen Qingzhu turned around and left.
Jiang Yuancheng's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He wanted to get up and follow him, but was stopped by Fu Lie who stayed behind: "Your Highness, please respect yourself! Your marriage to Miss Wen has not been finalized yet! You two have no relationship now!"
Jiang Yuancheng calmed down and stared into Fu Lie's eyes: "Master Fu, I know you are a popular person in front of my father, but this matter can't change anything! Unless you are also a prince!"
Fu Lie chuckled unexpectedly, and Jiang Yuancheng, who was standing in front of him, felt a pressure.
"Your Highness, I know you are very confident, but everything depends on human effort! Unless you can ascend the throne as emperor! Otherwise you will never marry Qingzhu!" Fu Lie said without a doubt.
Jiang Yuancheng restrained himself and watched Fu Lie turn around and leave.
He knew that Fu Lie came here today not for Wen Qingzhu.
What mission did his father give him to Fu Lie
When she arrived at the east courtyard, Lei Shuo was already waiting for her.
Seeing Wen Qingzhu return safe and sound, Lei Shuo breathed a sigh of relief.
"I heard that a venomous snake appeared at the wedding. Just hope you're fine."
"Of course it's okay, let's talk after we go in." Wen Qingzhu took Lei Shuo's hand and walked towards the house.
At the same time, he looked behind him with the corner of his eye. There were branches swaying in the trees outside the yard.
When he arrived at the house, he retreated.
Wen Qingzhu then asked: "Sister Shuo, are you ready over there?"
"Well, you're ready." Lei Shuo looked at her worriedly, "I can guarantee that there will be no problem on my side, but if you are discovered, it will be a big crime! Not to mention..."
Lei Shuo glanced in the direction of Fu Yuan uneasily: "There shouldn't be poisonous snakes today."
Wen Qingzhu held her hand: "Sister Shuo, don't worry, it'll be okay. I will take care of this matter. In addition, I have one more thing to trouble Sister Shuo. I want to go to Fengguo Temple."
"What's the matter?" Lei Shuo nodded.
"I heard that Master Jiudeng is back. I want to see him, but he rarely sees people. I wonder if you can help me make arrangements?" Wen Qingzhu decided to take Wen Qingxin with him.
Although Wen Qingxin is willing to cooperate with these recent matters.
But what she did was a wild card.
Wen Qingzhu was very suspicious. If she continued to cooperate with Wen Qingxin, she would eventually fall into trouble.
At night, the Wen family finally became quiet.
Wen Qingzhu was sitting in the study reading a book when Jasmine knocked on the door and came in.
"Miss, there are results from Fushou Tang. The Guo family finally agreed to refund only 40% of the bride price, and the third lady was locked up overnight."
"Well, you can deliver the medicine prepared by Shaoyao to the third lady on time."
Jasmine nodded and then retreated.
The night was slightly cool, Wen Qingzhu looked out the window.
The moon on August 16th is really round.
After a while, Wen Qingzhu suddenly coughed.
After a while, she took away the hand covering her mouth, and there was a layer of blood on her palm.
She turned around and walked to the chair to sit down. If she was bitten by a red-tailed snake today, she would probably be killed on the spot.
Wen Qingzhu's expression became serious. Did Wen Qingxin do this on purpose
Seven days later, Wen Qingzhu slowly recovered.
But this time the poison was so difficult to deal with that Wen Qingzhu had to ask Xue Ren to bring a letter to Jiang Dejia.
She needs half a thousand gold pills.
Wen Qingzhu did not regret giving Wen Qinglian the one Fu Lie gave her.
At the end of August, Xue's Medical Clinic.
Wen Qingzhu sat behind the black cloth, quietly waiting for Jiang Dejia's arrival.
Half an hour later, there was a sound outside the door.
Shaoyao was surprised and said: "Miss, this is..."
"It's my mother." Jiang Deyi's voice appeared outside, and Wen Qingzhu sat upright suddenly.
She never thought that Concubine Hui would leave the palace!
Shaoyao led them forward and sat down.
Wen Qingzhu sat upright with all his concentration, waiting seriously for Concubine Hui to speak.
Compared to Jiang Dejia, Concubine Hui cannot be underestimated!
