After rebirth, I became a scumbag and his aunt
Chapter 86 Do you dare to take out the dowry list to check?
Zhao Xiang'er did not enter the hall, but let the escort take her around the escort agency.
Han Youning entered the hall and sat down, and first asked about Chen Hengzhi, "Is there any news about my elder brother?"
Huo Shan shook his head, "I haven't found any trace of him yet. Jiangnan is so big and he is traveling, so it won't be easy to find him. I've sent two more groups of people there. I'll send you a message if I have any news."
Han Youning looked sad, "I'm sorry for bothering you, Uncle Shi."
She took a small box from Ling'er and pushed it to Huo Shan, "This is one hundred thousand taels, of which 60,000 taels are for the bodyguards, 30,000 taels are compensation for the sinking of the Qingshan, and the remaining 10,000 taels are
I gave it to my elder brother Chen Hengzhi."
Huo Shan pushed back and said with a smile, "I can't accept this money. What you brought to Wei Xing Escort Agency is more than one hundred thousand taels of silver. Duke Dingguo sent a report from the border and asked for credit for Wei Xing Escort Agency.
They said that if we hadn’t warned them, the grain ship would have sunk and they would have been out of food.”
He pointed to the black lacquered and gilded plaque directly above the hall, "The emperor personally wrote the inscription 'The No. 1 Escort Agency in the World' and rewarded him with a hundred taels of silver."
Han Youning looked at the plaque. The large gilded characters on it were eye-catching and ironic.
Everyone regards the emperor's reward as the glory of the generation, and they will go through fire and water for it.
The emperor could write a few words lightly and get others to work for him. It was really a good deal.
But when death is imminent, this plaque is of no use at all. It is not as practical as a kitchen knife.
Han Youning pushed the box over again, "Uncle, don't refuse anymore. This is the reward I should pay. The emperor's reward has nothing to do with me."
Huo Shan secretly sighed, for such a broad-minded woman, it is no wonder that the King of Jin treated her differently.
He counted thirty thousand taels and returned it to Han Youning, "You don't have to pay for the Qingshan. This is the price the escort agency should bear."
Han Youning did not refuse anymore and put the thirty thousand taels into one of the two boxes. "Uncle Shi, please help me keep this box for a while."
The moment she opened the box, Huo Shan saw what was inside, and his eyebrows moved slightly, "The county master trusts me so much?"
Han Youning said, "Uncle Shi has given his life to help you, so there's nothing I can't believe."
Huo Shan laughed heartily, "Okay! The county master treats you with sincerity, and Huo can only repay you with sincerity. This box will be foolproof with me!"
"Thank you, Uncle Shi."
Han Youning opened another box, which contained a package of glutinous rice and osmanthus cakes and a package of chrysanthemum cakes.
"These snacks were made by me as a thank you gift to Uncle Shi."
Huo Shan felt warm in his heart. Compared with money, these things showed his sincerity more.
He took a piece of glutinous rice and sweet-scented osmanthus cake and tasted it. He was surprised and said, "The county master's craftsmanship is very good. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake is sweet but not greasy. Even I, who don't like sweets, find it very delicious."
Han Youning smiled slyly and said, "Uncle Shi, if you think it's delicious, please do something for me, and I'll make a box for you."
…
After Han Youning left, Zhao Chengyuan came down from upstairs.
Huo Shan picked up one of the boxes and said to Zhao Chengyuan, "Your Majesty, please sit down first. I will go and put this box safely away first."
Zhao Chengyuan sat down and said, "Go ahead."
Huo Shan carried the box and left.
When he came back, he saw Zhao Chengyuan eating snacks with gusto. After finishing one piece, he took another piece.
I had never noticed that the prince had a sweet tooth before.
Huo Shandao, "If the prince likes it, I will pretend to be humble and take it away for you?"
"good."
Huo Shan: "...!"
--
Chunhui Hall.
Mrs. Han's expression was unprecedentedly gloomy, even ferocious.
She said sternly, "Now that Chen Youning has told you these facts, you should control the situation and leave there, make a decision before taking action. The third prince has already smoothed things over for you, so that is the best time to leave. How can you be so contentious?"
You are so strong and competitive, but you still want to beat me up?"
This is the first time she has lost her temper with Han Qingwan. She is simply disappointed. She used to think she was smart and tolerant. But recently, she has become more and more disappointed with her.
Last time she secretly designed Chen Youning to fall into the water and ruined her reputation as a best friend. This time, is she going to ruin the entire second bedroom?
Han Qingwan was also extremely regretful. Seeing that she had lost everything, she became impatient and always wanted to reverse the situation as soon as possible. After all, she was already in her late teens, and the prince was in his twenties, so the position of crown princess could not remain vacant forever.
She knelt on the ground with tears in her eyes, "Grandma, it's Wan'er's fault. But Wan'er is unwilling to accept it. Wan'er wants to be the queen, but now everyone is despising her, and her daughter has nothing!"
Mrs. Han pounded the table heavily, "How come you have nothing? You still have the life of the phoenix, and more importantly, you still have the identity of the eldest lady of Duke Dingguo's mansion! You are the only legitimate daughter in the entire mansion, which one?
Isn’t the prince looking at you covetously? If they want to win over Duke Dingguo, they can only marry you! Compared to the throne, a mere reputation as a good friend is nothing!"
Han Qingwan raised her face. Is that so?
Is the identity of the eldest daughter of Duke Dingguo so important? She doesn’t need to do anything to get everything she wants?
Yes, compared to the illusory Phoenix Life, the real military power of 200,000 is much more useful!
Han Qingwan became more and more regretful and fell to the ground, "Grandma, Wan'er was wrong!"
Mrs. Han said coldly, "Of course you are wrong! I have spent so many years teaching you in vain, but you can't even compare to a country girl!"
Xiao Wen felt sorry for her daughter, so she said from the side, "Mother can't just scold Wan'er. You also know how hateful Chen Youning is. Wan'er was also forced to do something so hard. She couldn't think so thoughtfully at the moment."
Mrs. Han said sarcastically, "You can still sit here. The prince and the third prince are here tomorrow. Do you dare to take out the dowry list to check?"
Little Wen said in a low voice, "Mom also knows that for the second master's promotion, a lot of money was spent, and a lot of jewelry, calligraphy and paintings were also given away. And some of the usual favors were also spent..."
Mrs. Han sneered, "Exchange of favors? How many good things did you send back to your aunt? How many good things did you buy and furnish for your concubine? How many good things did you move there? Although my eyesight is dim, but such a big movement
, it’s not even invisible!”
Little Wen's face turned red. She thought she was doing it secretly, but the old lady knew it!
She murmured, "My mother also knows that my aunt has a humble status and has a difficult life in the Hou Mansion. As a daughter, how can I bear it..."
Han Rui listened on the sidelines and suddenly felt worried. How could the things from their Duke's Palace supplement the Yongning Marquis' Palace?
He said with a cold face, "You are very generous. Aunt Chu and Lian'er don't have any decent reputation. Why don't you feel sorry for them? Marquis Yongning has a lot of money, and you still need to supplement it!"
