Chapter 104 A little peace

As he said that, Gu Gu stood up abruptly and slammed into the solid wood altar table in the mourning hall.

"Gu Gu!" Bai Jinxiu opened her eyes wide and opened her arms to stop Gu Gu, but was knocked down with Gu Gu.

The mourning hall was in chaos in an instant, pulling Gu Gu and rushing to help Bai Jinxiu to help Bai Jinxiu.

The people were filled with righteous indignation.

"The Duke's Mansion is too unlucky! Is this going to give the widow of the Duke's Mansion a living? In one day, two people in the Duke's Mansion were almost killed! What kind of evil did this do? Isn't this clan afraid of lightning strikes? !"

"Bah! It's really shameless! For such a big funeral in the Duke's Mansion, the clan didn't know how to send people to help the orphans and widows, and they robbed the family property like a robber!"

"It's really not greedy! The Duke's Mansion gives half of the income to the clan every year. Who is so generous?! I think it's because the Duke of Guo is too kind-hearted, making those wolves more dissatisfied, so he gave it to the widow of the Duke's Mansion It caused such a catastrophe.”

"In my opinion, they are just bullying that there are no men in the Duke's Mansion! The men in the Duke's Mansion died for the country and the people. Does this shameless clan have the nerve to bully other widows?!"

Seeing the anger of the people, Bai Qiyun took two steps back and stood with his two cousins, obviously disturbed by the incident of "the Lord of the Kingdom's apparition".

"What's the trouble?!"

Mrs. Dong, the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, was supported by Bai Qingyan and walked slowly into the mourning hall. The majesty of Dong's mistress was very impressive.

"Is there such a big commotion to alarm the eldest princess?!"

Gu Gu felt guilty and restless, and kowtowed heavily: "Mrs. Shizi! This old slave has not kept his word of loyalty, and this old slave is not worthy of being a servant of the Duke's Mansion!"

Mrs. Dong said, walked up to Gu Gu, helped Gu Gu with red eyes, and said: "Why did Gu Gu say that? Gu Gu's family followed the Duke's Mansion from the ancestors, and worked hard for the Duke Mansion from generation to generation! How could I not know? ?!"

"Mrs. Shizi!" The old man burst into tears, choked up and couldn't speak.

"Although this time, in order to buy land for the clan, repair the ancestral hall, ancestral temple, ancestral tomb, and school, the Duke's family has to go bankrupt to barely make up enough money. But I, Mrs. Dong, swear here that I will use all my dowry to support the Duke's work. Your loyal servant and domestic slave, I, Mrs. Dong, have a bite to eat, and I will definitely not let anyone in the Duke's Mansion go hungry."

"Mrs. Shizi!"

"Mrs. Shizi!"

The servants and slaves of the Bai family knelt down to thank Dong for his kindness.

Although Dong is a back-home girl, she is a man of city and determination.

Bai Qingyan looked at her mother with admiration and admiration in her heart. Just now, her mother pressed her down and waited behind her, until Gu Gu was forced to touch her to death, which ignited the fire in the hearts of the people, and then her mother came out leisurely Clean up the scene.

Today, the mother said before the funeral that she will use the dowry to support the loyal servants and slaves of the Bai family, that is, she will return to Shuoyang in the future. The clan saw the servants who returned in great numbers from the Duke's mansion, and saw that the food and clothing of the Duke's mansion were the same as before. , and can no longer use any clan righteousness to force the Duke's government to pay money for the clan, after all, it is all her mother's dowry.

No matter how shameless and shameless the clan is, they can't put their contributions to the clan on the clan's daughter-in-law's dowry, let alone reach out so long to check the Bai family's daughter-in-law's dowry.

Otherwise, who would dare to marry Bai Jialang in the future?

She thought of a way, but her mother made up her way more comprehensively. She still has a lot to learn about this matter in the house.

"This time, for the sake of the clan, our Duke's family has gone bankrupt! But I have to make it clear to my cousin of the same clan..." Mrs. Dong looked at Bai Qiyun, word by word, with a voice like a bell, "This time to contribute to the clan, The government of our country has taken the lead in dismantling the family and dismantling the business. Next time, if the clan has anything to do, don’t think about the dowry of us widows. After all, our dowry has to support our daughters and these loyal servants who are devoted to the government. , Domestic slaves! When we return to our hometown in Shuoyang, we also ask the clan to give us widows of the Duke’s Mansion a way out and a little peace.”

Bai Qiyun and his two cousins ​​were standing together, and they were supposed to have an argument to restore the clan's reputation, but when he thought of the candle flame not flickering in the wind, the incense broke twice, he pursed his lips tightly and dared not speak.

Reputation is the foundation of a clan.

He never expected that the group of women and girls in the Duke's Mansion who will rely on the clan for their livelihood in the future would even disregard the roots of the clan and completely tear themselves apart from the clan.

If Bai Qiyun's father and the current patriarch knew about this, Bai Qiyun's legs might not be saved.

"It doesn't matter if the family's wealth in the Duke's Mansion is gone. Fortunately, we still have the dowry from our wives and other families. Aren't we afraid that we won't be able to support our children and the loyal servants of the Duke's Mansion?!" She also came to the coffin with her help, and she respectfully saluted Mrs. Dong, "As long as you can spend money to buy a life for the widow of our government, don't let the clan force us to death! What's the matter if the family's wealth is gone?! Sister-in-law's dowry, and my dowry, sister-in-law... We are all in the same boat, and there is nothing we can't get through!"

Leaning in front of her son's coffin all this time, the fourth wife, Mrs. Wang, said in a hoarse voice, "And my dowry!"

"And mine! Although my dowry is not as good as my sister-in-law's, it was red dowry back then... I carried the dowry for a whole day!" The third wife, Mrs. Li, heard the news and heard it before she arrived. .

Since ancient times, all married women regard their dowry as more important than their lives! When the clan forced the Duke's Mansion to go bankrupt and buy peace with silver, the wives of the Duke's Mansion stood up and said they were willing to use the dowry to support the remaining children of the Duke's Mansion, and to support the servants and domestic slaves of the Duke's Mansion!

In comparison, how magnanimous are the ladies of the Duke's Mansion! How dirty is the Shuoyang Bai family? !

The common people are not without a dead man in the family and no male family. Who can keep the property left by the man? Most of them were robbed by the clan.

Unexpectedly, even a family like the Bai family is so dirty.

Bai Qingyan lowered her feverish eyes. She always knew that her aunts were so righteous. Although there were inevitably quarrels and unhappy feelings when they got along with each other on weekdays, once they really encountered difficulties, the Bai family would be extremely united.

This... is the reason why the Bai family has been thriving and prosperous for hundreds of years.

In the world, there is only love of blood that cannot be measured by money. Grandpa was right when he said that...

"The Duke of the country has said several times in the clan that the Duke's mansion should be responsible for the contribution of the clan, and there should be no regrets! The clan has absolutely no dirty idea of ​​persecuting the widow of the Duke's mansion! The wife of the son always talks about the dowry. The clan is embarrassing! Let the people in the world think that the patriarch of the Bai clan is the one who took away the widow's property! That being the case... even if it violates the Duke's last wish, the clan will never dare to accept the Duke's kindness, so we bid farewell!"
