Chapter 167 Want to buy a dowry for my sister



Qingli continued, "Do you want to know who your husband's former wives and children are? These people have always been by your side, wanting to solve all the puzzles and save yourself. Give me 12,000 taels of silver now, and I will tell you immediately and teach you how to avoid your own death."

Qingli's words left Chen Jinyu silent.

"You still don't believe it, right?"

In order to quickly earn some money to buy some dowry for Su Qingyue, Qingli could only patiently say: "When you were 15, you went out with your mother and fell off a cliff and almost died. Not many people know about this, right? There is still a scar on the back of your neck. When you were 10, you met a man and almost got engaged. But later you found out that the man was sick and wanted to cheat on you. This marriage didn't work out, right? Do you believe me now?"

Chen Jinyu covered her mouth in surprise after hearing these words and looked at Qingli in disbelief. The shock in her heart was beyond words.

"How...how do you know this?"

Not to mention the accidental fall off the cliff, some outsiders also knew about it, but the marriage was never revealed because it concerned her reputation, so she would not tell anyone about it before the marriage was officially confirmed. That marriage almost happened, but because it was not officially confirmed, outsiders knew nothing about it.

"Can you really tell fortunes? Can you see through a person's fate?"

Chen Jinyu asked in disbelief.

Qingli nodded, "Yes, it's true. It can't be false."

Chen Jinyu still found it hard to believe, this ability was too incredible, she had always believed that fortune-telling was just a trick used by the underworld to deceive people, only fools would believe in such things.

If there is anyone in this world who can see through the fate of others, it must be a god, so she never believes in fortune-telling.

But today, she seemed to believe it.

"Then...will I really die? When will I die?"

Chen Jinyu was suddenly panicked and became a little flustered.

Knowing that the money was a sure win, Qingli said slowly, "Yes, as for when you will die, you pay the money and I will tell you everything and help you survive this disaster. You just treated my sister like that and didn't give anything, so how could I possibly tell you."

Chen Jinyu frowned and said anxiously: "But I don't have so much money now."

Since she got married, part of her dowry has been subsidized to her husband's family. She has been supporting the whole family, and her dowry has been almost spent. Now, she is no longer so rich.

"Oh, no money, forget it, I'm leaving."

Qingli was about to leave, but Chen Jinyu quickly stopped her and said, "I'll have someone go back and get it. Wait, I'll give it to you."

A smile flashed across Qingli's eyes, and she turned back to her expressionless look before.

"Okay, give me what you have now, and send the rest to me within half an hour. By the way, I remind you to check your own treasury! You've lost a lot by getting married. Not only did you lose your life, but you also lost your money. You've really lost both your life and your money."

Chen Jinyu's face turned even uglier when he heard this.

She immediately called the maid and gave all the banknotes she had brought out that day to Qingli, except for 100 taels.

Qingli glanced at him with disdain, "Is that all?"

Chen Jinyu hurriedly said: "I'll send it to you soon."

Qingli nodded helplessly, "Okay! Hurry up, I have something else to do later and I can't wait for you too long. Also, go apologize to my sister before leaving."

Chen Jinyu frowned and wanted to refuse, but when she caught up with Qingli's dark gaze, she couldn't say no and could only nod, "I understand."

The two of them went back to the jewelry store. Su Qingyue hadn't bought anything yet and was looking outside worriedly. When she saw the two of them coming in, she hurried over.

"Su Qingyue, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have spoken to you like that just now, sorry!"

Chen Jinyu said this awkwardly, not daring to look into Su Qingyue's eyes. After she finished speaking, she quickly turned around and left, as if someone was chasing her.

Su Qingyue was extremely surprised!

"Ali, what did you say to her that made her apologize?"

Su Qingyue understood Chen Jinyu's personality. She had known her for more than ten years and had never seen her give in.

The day is strange.

Qingli smiled and said, "It's nothing, sister, it's just that 께께 is a little threatening. Come on, I'll go shopping with you."

Su Qingyue's eyes sparkled when she heard that. She didn't want Qingli to know that she was going to buy jewelry, so she said, "Ali, let's go eat! It's almost lunch time, let's go to Osmanthus Tower."

Qingli pulled Su Qingyue and said as they walked, "I'm not hungry now. Let's walk around for a while before eating."

Su Qingyue looked at her, and seeing that she seemed to really want to go shopping, she didn't say anything more.

At this time, Chen Jinyu had just returned when the maid in the courtyard shouted, "Madam, you are back."

Chen Jinyu was in a hurry to go to the storeroom and didn't notice the somewhat panicked look on the maid's face.

At this time, in the room next to the main house, a man and a woman were being affectionate under a quilt, and the voice of the maid outside the door suddenly startled them.

Xu Lin hurriedly got up and put on his clothes, his movements a little flustered.

The woman was also busy helping her dress.

"Why did she come back so early yesterday? Didn't she just go out?"

Although the woman's voice was deliberately softened, it was still a little rough, unlike the soft and delicate voices of the noble ladies in Nanyang City.

"Who knows? I'll ask later. If you're fine, I'll find time to come over in the evening. Just wait for me."

Xu Lin said this and kissed the girl on the lips.

As soon as Xu Lin went out, Chen Jinyu ran out angrily.

"Mom? Sister-in-law? Come out, why are there so many things missing from my storeroom? Who took them?"

Chen Jinyu was so angry that she almost died. She yelled in the yard with a dark face and didn't care about her image as a noble lady anymore.

Her dowry was generous, and she could not spend it all in her lifetime.

But now, not only was everything torn into pieces by this family, but even half of the things in the storeroom were missing. Those were her last dowry. If they were all gone, how would she survive in the future?
