Chapter 634 Carrying the Dowry
Yang Qingrui and others also looked at each other. The old lady came here last time and asked for money in a very aggressive manner. This time she came here to give money, and she was so humble?
I'm afraid he's possessed by a ghost.
Song Chuman stepped forward, took the dowry list and took a look at it, then without any hesitation, asked someone to open the box and check each item one by one.
Gou Yingya became anxious when she saw that she was moving slowly.
Song Chuman caught a glimpse of Gou Yingya's expression and slowed down his movements even more.
Just when Gou Yingya and the others were about to collapse, Song Chuman spoke up, "Father, according to my verification, twenty items of dowry are missing, including five thousand taels of silver notes and some antiques, jades, famous calligraphy and paintings, etc."
Gou Yingya explained: "I converted all the things that are gone into money. It's that big wooden box."
Song Chuman said: "I know, I saw it, about 20,000 taels."
Gou Yingya said: "Yes, those things are not actually worth 20,000 taels, but your grandfather said that giving you a little more can be regarded as compensation for you."
"Then I'll accept it for my mother." Song Chuman looked aside and said, "Uncle Qingrui, please help me carry these things to the backyard."
"good."
Yang Qingrui immediately called on his brothers to carry the dowry.
But just as he passed by, Gou Yingya blocked his way.
Song Hexiu's face darkened. "Madam Sheng, what are you doing? Are you regretting this now?"
Gou Yingya said seriously: "Although these dowries belong to Sheng Shuwan's biological mother, I have been in charge of them over the years. To keep them so intact and complete, I have no credit, but I have also worked hard."
Song Chuman: "Yes, yes, it's hard for you to transfer them to Black Fish Village and then transfer them out of Black Fish Village. It must have taken a lot of effort. You have worked hard."
Gou Yingya was startled and asked in horror, "How...how did you know I left these things in Black Fish Village?"
Song Chuman smiled and said, "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. Do you really think that just because you are older than me, you can hide it from me?"
Gou Yingya choked and said, "Forget it. I don't care how you knew this. If you want to take these things, you must agree to one condition of mine. Otherwise, I will have them carried away in the same way they were brought here."
Song Hexiu looked at Gou Yingya with an ambiguous look in his eyes.
The others looked at Gou Yingya with complicated expressions.
The Song family has quite a few people, and she didn't bring many people with her. Since she had the conditions from the beginning, she took the initiative to carry the things in? Is she too confident that she can get away with it? "
Song Chuman said calmly, "Tell me about it."
Gou Yingya said, "My youngest son was involved in a murder case. He definitely didn't kill anyone, but there's no evidence to prove his innocence, so he was taken into custody and is still in jail."
"The official presiding over this case is from the Ji family. He is also Sheng Shuwan's uncle, your great-uncle."
"I want you to promise me that you will persuade the Ji family to release my son. As long as you can do this, I will return the dowry to you."
Song Chuman asked, "Are you so confident that we will agree? Bring the things here first. Aren't you afraid that we will agree first and then regret it later?"
Gou Yingya curled her lips. If Sheng Pengchi and her eldest son hadn't insisted that she send the things first, so that the people of the Song family could see their sincerity.
Even if Sheng Pengchi's confidants were to escort her personally, so that she couldn't order those people around, she wouldn't be so foolish as to come here.
