Chapter 17 Handle
Zhao stood up and walked towards Li, took a closer look, and suddenly found that there was a white jade bracelet on her hand, and she couldn't find any flaws. Her eyes lit up and she thought to herself that it was a good opportunity.
"What's this?"
Zhao grabbed her wrist and raised it up. Li wanted to hide but couldn't escape. It was a bit inconvenient to have a big belly, and he didn't dare to move too much and was afraid of falling.
"Why do I see this bracelet looking so familiar?"
Zhao took off the bracelet from Li's hand, checked it repeatedly, turned his head and stared at Du Zhao very angrily, and cursed: "Du Zhao, are you still human? Take my sister-in-law's dowry to coax your outdoor room, you are not even as good as a beast!"
"Don't talk nonsense. The Li family is a merchant and they don't lack anything. Can't I still afford a bracelet?"
Du Zhao was also very angry. When did he steal his wife's dowry to send to Li? No matter what, I wouldn't do this. I can afford it. Why should I steal it?
His face turned pale, and he blamed Li in his heart for some reason. He came here for no reason. He was so successful that he would be more than to lose things. After all, he was a business woman, and he was indeed not as sensible as everyone's daughter.
"No, this is my thing, not Mrs.'s."
Li waved his hand anxiously to defend himself. His eyes were filled with water, tears were not falling, and sweat came out on his forehead. The little girl beside her tightly held her clothes tightly and did not dare to let go. She was frightened by everyone's snatching eyes.
"Haha! Many things in my Yang family have marked marks. This bracelet was awarded to me by the Queen Mother back then. It was made in the palace and had marks. You can find out once you check it. You can check it."
Zhao handed the bracelet to a woman closest to her. It happened that this man had a good relationship with her mother's family and had been in contact with each other, so he would never help the Du family.
Mrs. Ma took the bracelet and looked at the sunlight carefully, and pointed out the location of the mark with her hands, "Look, this is indeed a mark made by the palace.
You will know this once you check it. It is really impossible to make a false one. I have a gold bracelet rewarded in the palace. It is the same as this mark, but the number is different."
"Yes, I have it too. Look, compare it, are the marks the same? This is what is in the palace."
Another lady took off the hairpin on her head and compared the two items to everyone. The things in the palace have obvious numbers and can be verified. This is because the bottom is left to make the account.
Du Jingfu was also stunned. She really didn't know about this. She didn't have such a good show in her previous life. She really didn't know. She looked at Du Zhao coldly, her voice softly but with a look of disbelief.
"Father, how could she have something from her mother? The Li family is a merchant, how could it have something from the palace? Even my mother doesn't have a few such jewelry. It should be on the dowry list."
Jingfu's voice is light but implicit sadness and despair, which makes the listener cry.
The ladies looked around and finally confirmed the appraisal results in unison. The bracelet was indeed made by the imperial palace, and it would be impossible to make any mistakes.
Du Zhao couldn't believe that he had never stole his wife's dowry, and this matter could definitely be guaranteed.
"It wasn't what I gave it to. I haven't taken my wife's jewelry, how could it be?"
Du Zhao answered in shock, and looked at Li's eyes with a little gloomy look.
"Tell me, who gave it to you by the Du family?"
Zhao looked at the old lady of the Du family, and her expression was self-evident.
The old lady of the Du family snorted in a deep voice, "My old lady has never touched the dowry of her daughter-in-law. Although my Du family is not a wealthy family, she will never do such a thing. Li said, "Whoever gave you, dares to tell a lie, you know what will happen."
She gritted her teeth and stared at Li standing in front of her, feeling unstoppable hatred. She had a vague guess in her heart who gave her what she had given her.
It should be that Ma Ma deliberately bullied her daughter-in-law under her own banner, otherwise it would not have caused such great hatred from her granddaughter and dared to kill her. This was with the intention of dying together.
Fortunately, I had not decided to take down my daughter-in-law's dowry, so I was a little hesitant, otherwise I would not be able to explain it clearly today.
Li was so scared that she kept hunching her head, her expression was scared and frightened. She hugged her daughter and didn't know what to do. The sweat on her face made her makeup look exhausted, and she looked very embarrassed.
"If you say it, you will abort the child in your stomach."
Old Mrs. Du was furious and slapped the coffee table hard, making a loud bang in the quiet hall.
Li knelt down, crawled forward with trembling, and knelt at the feet of Old Mrs. Du, "Auntie, please spare me for the sake of the child in my stomach. This is given to me by Ma Ma."
Old Mrs. Du was very angry, "She didn't keep such a valuable thing secretly, why did she give it to you?"
"She said this was made by the imperial palace and could not be sold, so she asked me to take it to stimulate the sick lady so that the lady could get early... and let me be a wife and will serve me loyally in the future.
This is not my idea. I saw that I had a good look and was left with greed for a moment. I really didn't mean it..."
Li was so scared that he lost his mind and knelt on the ground and started crying.
"Madam Ma is indeed carrying the master. It's outrageous that the damn thing dares to do such a dirty thing on my back."
Old Mrs. Du was so angry that she was dizzy. The dowry maid she trusted for her life was actually a thing that was to blame the master. It was a huge irony!
The group of people below were talking quietly, just saying that the Du family had no successor and the rules at home became looser.
It was a son like Du Zhao who had lost all his life. The Yang family was blind and got this marriage. It was really...
"We are too lazy to care about your family's mess. Since that's the case, I think your Du family can't take good care of my Yang family's dowry.
We didn't want to talk about this, so we discussed it at home. My sister-in-law's dowry was left to my niece. But now it seems that we will take this dowry back to the Yang family. It is more appropriate to hand it over to Jingfu before getting married in the future."
Zhao interrupted in time to guide public opinion, indicating the Yang family's attitude, and took the opportunity to ask for a dowry.
Old Mrs. Du didn't say anything. At this time, she had no face at all and said she would not give her any helplessly.
Du Zhao also pursed his lips and said nothing. Although he had cleared his charge of stealing someone to marry, the outdoor room was not much better, and his face was as dark as the bottom of the pot.
Du Heng looked at the clan leader and winked with a pleading look in his eyes.
The patriarch stood up and bowed to Mr. Yang himself, "Mr. Yang, I am the patriarch of the Du family. I, Dai Zhaoer and his mother, apologize to the Yang family for you.
Back then, I took Zhaoer to marry the Yang family daughter. At that time, I still remember how happy I was. The Yang family girl was a good daughter. She has been devoted to the Du family over the years and gave birth to a smart daughter for Zhaoer.
We are the ones who can marry such a wife in the Du family. It is Zhaoer who is sorry to the Yang family, and it is my Du family who is sorry to the children.
