Chapter 55 You Spent Your Sister's Dowry and You Should Pay It Back

Xu Chunhua learned that Xuan Jiuqing went to Xujia Village.

He immediately returned to Xujia Village happily.

"The Ninth Prince is so kind. Even though the villagers weren't nice to him, he only came once during his wedding and helped them repair their house."

Xu Chunhua didn't expect that Xuan Jiuqing actually asked all the people in Xujia Village to rebuild their houses.

How much money would this cost? All the people in Xujia Village benefited from her.

"This prince is kind-hearted. Mother thinks he is indeed much better than Lu Yuan."

At this time, Xu's mother felt more and more pleased with Xuan Jiuqing because Xuan Jiuqing actually spoke to her.

That's the prince!

Even Lu Yuan wasn't as polite as Xuan Jiuqing.

In an instant, Xu's mother forgot that she was beaten by Princess Nanyang.

She felt that it would be a good idea for Xu Chunhua to follow Xuan Jiuqing, as Xuan Jiuqing was a man with a good temper.

That Lu Yuan was really ignorant of the bigger picture. He actually asked the doorman to kick both her and Xu's father out.

Originally, Xu's father wanted to ask Xu Qiuyue for some money to buy a maid for Xu Chunhua.

But the doorman wouldn't let me in.

When Mr. Xu got home, he had a very bad temper.

Xu's mother didn't believe it and went there in person, but the result was the same.

She sat at the door and cried, saying Xu Qiuyue was heartless.

Then a few old women came out and started cursing at her.

They said she was a heartless woman and there was no more vicious mother in the world than her. Not only did she drain her daughter's savings for the bride price.

He comes to Lu's house every day to ask for money.

More than three thousand taels of silver is enough for them to spend for several lifetimes.

She is still not satisfied.

This made passers-by look at her strangely.

Mother Xu had never been so embarrassed in her life.

I returned to Xujia Village and told the villagers about it.

Everyone praised Lu Yuan and Xu Qiuyue, and told her not to go too far.

What good thing did Lu Yuan do? Wasn’t it just building a road?
All these people turned against us.

Later, Xu's mother found out that Lu Yuan had long ago spread the news in the village that they had embezzled Xu Qiuyue's betrothal money.

Several thousand taels of silver, these villagers could never earn that much money in their entire lives.

How can these people not be jealous?

This also made Xu's mother completely hate Lu Yuan.

What Lu Yuan did was inhumane.

However, in this matter, Xu's mother wrongly accused Lu Yuan. It was Xu Qiuyue who did it herself.

This is also the reason why Xu's father's cousins, nephews, and nephews came to borrow money.

Otherwise, no matter how much more than three thousand taels of silver were spent, it would not have been spent so quickly.

Xu's mother is another person without her own opinion.

Have ideas, but not forceful.

Generally, whatever Xu Chunhua and Xu's father say is what happens.

So Xu's mother really has no money left.

Xu's mother felt sorry for Xu Chunhua, but was also afraid of Xu's father. If she didn't give her money, Xu's father would beat her.

In addition, Xu's mother always felt that Xu Qiuyue had married so well that she would never ignore her.

She felt that Xu Qiuyue must be rich, after all, Xu Qiuyue had been capable since she was young.

In her mind, if she really had no money, she could just go to Xu Qiuyue for it.

But I didn't expect the Lu family to be so excessive.

She was not allowed to enter the door. The Ninth Prince was the best. He took the initiative to give her 100 taels of gold as soon as they met. This is gold!
She had never seen her in her life, but he called her aunt in front of many people.

However, when facing Xu's father, Xuan Jiuqing chose to ignore it and pretended that he saw nothing.

Father Xu could only flatter her and say nice things, and it was only with her help that he got the job.

This made Xu's mother very happy.

This greatly satisfied her vanity, and at the same time she was glad that she did not scold Xuan Jiuqing at that time, otherwise, she would be the one in trouble.

She was pretty nice to Xuan Jiuqing at that time.

After all, she didn't want her daughter to really marry a cripple.

So she still hoped that Xuan Jiuqing's leg could be cured.

Not as mean as Xu's father.

However, as soon as the Ninth Prince left, Father Xu's attitude changed.

Father Xu wanted to take all the 100 taels of gold.

"How much of the three thousand silver I had before? Now everyone is saying that I have spent it all.

It was obviously you who lost everything, yet you still have the nerve to blame it on me.

I must take the money this time.

Next time, if the Ninth Prince gives me money again, I won’t take it.”

Father Xu knew very well that Xuan Jiuqing would not give him any more money.

Xu Chunhua didn't even get the status of a concubine, she was just a maid.

Moreover, Xuan Jiuqing also made it very clear that if Xu Chunhua was willing, she could stay in Xujia Village and marry someone else.

After all, he couldn't give her the position of legal wife.

It seems like he feels very guilty towards Xu Chunhua, which is a very good thing.

But men understand men best.

Father Xu knew very well that Xuan Jiuqing did not like Xu Chunhua. If he really liked her, how could he bear to let his beloved woman leave him.

I just don't want to be known as an unfaithful person.

Looking at Xu Chunhua's silly look, she really thought that Xuan Jiuqing liked her so much.

That's why Xu's father decided to take all the money.

If she doesn't take it away, Xu Chunhua will use it to buy a maid and other things, and spend all the money.

This is too wasteful.

The most important thing is, what if Xu Chunhua really marries someone else.

Xu's mother will definitely let Xu Chunhua use this money to help others.

So Mr. Xu took every penny.

"You are so heartless! You actually want to take away all of Chunhua's one hundred taels. How can she live like this?"

Mother Xu cried and shouted, beating Father Xu's chest continuously.

"Stop making trouble, or I will be rude to you!"

Father Xu yelled angrily and threw Mother Xu far away.

Mother Xu lay on the ground, holding the gold tightly, and said to Father Xu: "This is the gold that His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince gave to Chunhua. No one can take Chunhua's gold away."

When Father Xu heard this, his face changed slightly. He looked at Xu Chunhua and said coldly: "Xu Chunhua, I raised you up. This gold belongs to the family, His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince. If you still have a conscience, don't take the gold from the family!
You have to know that when your sister Xu Qiuyue got married, she didn't take a penny of the 3,000 taels of betrothal money with her, and when she returned home, she brought back a lot of gifts and money.

In the end, all this money and gifts were basically wasted by you. This little money of yours is not even enough for you to spend on your sister!"

Xu Chunhua was stunned for a moment, she lowered her head, and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.

Father Xu treated her so cruelly.

After Xu Qiuyue became a princess in her previous life, Xu's father never looked at her straight in the eye again.

This time, she did not become a princess, and Xu's father wanted to take all the gold given by Xuan Jiuqing without losing a single cent.

It was clearly agreed that she wanted to buy a maid and some new clothes. Her headdress was very old and could not be compared with the new styles in the capital.

Xu Chunhua took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the anger in her heart. She slowly raised her head and looked at Xu's father in front of her.
