Chapter 441: No one else needs to worry about the dowry of our Miss Song!

"She and Yuehua are now in jail, and they deserve it. But, logically, I shouldn't say anything more," Mrs. Zhao said with a sad face, "But Yueyi, think about it, she is your stepmother after all. Even if you marry into the Yu family in the future, how can others say that your children have a grandmother like that? How unbearable it will be."

Cen Yueyi looked at Madam Zhao calmly: "So, what does Madam mean?"

Madam Zhao held Cen Yueyi's hand and looked into her eyes anxiously: "...why don't you write a letter to plead for your stepmother and your sister. Your stepmother and your sister were foolish and made such a mistake, but no matter what, they just had such a foolish idea. You are fine now..."

Cen Yueyi pulled her hand back and said in a rare stern voice: "Madam, you are wrong! What do you mean they just had such a muddled idea? If Xingxing hadn't been there at the time, I'm afraid I would have been doomed! Moreover, they colluded with bandits, the evidence is solid, and they also tried to deceive the emperor, I'm afraid the punishment they imposed would not be too light. If I still plead for them at this time, wouldn't it be asking me to slap the emperor in the face? Madam, you are muddled!"

Mrs. Zhao showed some shame on her face.

They are both flesh and blood of the Jiang Taihou Mansion. Her sister and niece are so foolish that they dare to be so bold and presumptuous, but this Cen Yueyi is so smart that she is not easy to fool at all!

Madam Zhao covered her face with her sleeves, her voice choked with sobs: "But she is still my sister after all... I watched Yuehua grow up. I really can't bear it..."

Cen Yueyi lowered her eyes, her expression indifferent, not moved at all.

Can't bear it?

If you really couldn't bear it, why didn't you, the Minister of War, write a letter to explain the situation on behalf of Xiao Zhao and Cen Yuehua?

It's obvious that you know how serious the situation is, and you don't want to get involved and get yourself into trouble, but you also want to trick her into saving people with sweet words.

Haha, really, what do you think of her?

Cen Yueyi was still the dignified and serious Miss Cen, and she rejected Madam Zhao dignifiedly: "Madam Zhao, please go back."

When Madam Zhao saw Cen Yueyi's clear and indifferent eyes, she knew that she could not fool this girl.

She tightened her face, twisted her hands, still a little unwilling, gritted her teeth and said: "...Yueyi, if you are willing to express your love for your stepmother, the Zhao family is willing to give you a generous dowry."

"That's not necessary!"

A strong male voice sounded, and Cen Yueyi turned around in disbelief, and saw two adult men, followed by a half-grown boy, rushing towards them in big strides.

"Don't worry about the dowry of our Song family girl!" The middle-aged man in the lead had a long beard and wore a scholar's bamboo hat. He looked like a scholar with furious hair standing on end.

Cen Yueyi called out in surprise: "Uncle, uncle, brother!"

The visitors were Cen Yueyi's two uncles and cousin from her maternal grandfather's side.

The Song family is a century-old scholarly family in Cen Yueyi's maternal hometown, and has raised Cen Yueyi for more than ten years.

The man whom Cen Yueyi called uncle nodded to her and said, "Yier, I have heard everything. Don't worry, our Song family will definitely seek justice for you."

Mrs. Zhao looked obviously flustered and forced a smile as she greeted the three members of the Song family.

The second uncle of the Song family snorted coldly, not giving Madam Zhao face at all, and said coldly: "Madam is bullying my niece because she is alone and helpless, so she can say such shameless words. Now that we, the Song family, are here, let's put aside the ugly words first. If we encounter Madam saying such things again, don't blame us for writing to the emperor and making a good defense!"

Mrs. Zhao's forced smile froze on her face and her scalp was numbing!

Her husband was the Minister of War. Although he was a military officer, he had a lot of dealings with those literary men. Their arguments were really annoying!

Mrs. Zhao no longer dared to say anything to Cen Yueyi and almost fled in her carriage.

Cen Yueyi was too lazy to bother with Madam Zhao. Even though she was so happy that her eyes sparkled, she still politely saluted the two uncles of the Song family: "Uncle, uncle, brother Qing, when did you come to Beijing?"

The eldest uncle of the Song family said, "We arrived in Beijing at noon today. We originally wanted to rest for a night and wash off the dust before coming to the mansion to look for you. However, we heard in the guesthouse that the serpentine mother and daughter actually wanted to murder you. Your second uncle and I immediately came to the mansion to look for you, but we didn't expect to hear others threatening and tempting you."

The eldest uncle of the Song family had pity in his eyes, "Yier, you have suffered."

Cen Yueyi pursed her lips and smiled, shaking her head: "Uncle, I'm fine."

She nudged Xing Xing and introduced her, "This is... the daughter of the Zhenxi General's Mansion. She saved me. She has been with me all day."

When Cen Yueyi mentioned the "Zhenxi General's Mansion", she rarely showed a hint of shyness.

Song Yuanzhou, the eldest uncle of the Song family, bowed slightly to Xingxing and said, "Thank you, little girl, for saving my Yi'er."

But Xingxing was frightened and quickly turned aside to avoid the gift.

The other party was the uncle of her future sister-in-law, which meant he was her elder. How could she accept courtesy from an elder?

"You're too polite." Xingxing blushed slightly.

Song Yuanqiao, the second uncle of the Song family, couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother, look how scared you are of that little girl."

"Speaking of which, the General Zhenxi's Mansion..." Song Yuanqiao said with a smile, "is it Yi'er's future husband's family? My brother and I were still worried on the way here. After all, a woman's marriage is a second reincarnation... Now that I see that the General Zhenxi's sister is of such good character and appearance, I know that the General Zhenxi's Mansion must be a reliable family."

Song Yuanqiao patted the head of the teenager next to him and said, "Say hello to the girl."

The young man was as beautiful as jade and as slender as bamboo. He bowed to greet Xing Xing and said, "I am Song Shouqing. Hello, Sister Yu."

He was probably in the voice change period, so his voice was a little strange, but the boy was very serious and did not look down on Xingxing just because she was a little girl. He performed the formalities.

Xing Xing returned the greeting with a slightly blushing face.

Xingxing must have something to say when she saw the family reunion. In addition, she was going to return home, but was blocked by Mrs. Zhao.

Xingxing said goodbye to Cen Yueyi and the others.

Song Yuanqiao, the second uncle of the Song family, said to Song Shouqing, "It's getting dark, you should go and see Miss Yu off."

Song Shouqing nodded and made a "please" gesture to Xingxing: "Sister Yu, I'll take you there."

Xing Xing wanted to say no, but Cen Yueyi pulled her hand and said, "Just now I didn't want to deal with Madam Zhao any more, so I used you as a cover. I should have been the one to send you back home... Now that Qingdi is sending you back, I can feel more at ease."

Xing Xing thought about it and decided not to refuse. She bowed to Song Shouqing and said, "Thank you for your help."
