Gong, I'll protect you

Chapter 138 Asking about the dowry quietly

Regarding Aunt Shen's words, Ding Baizi said bluntly without hesitation, "Auntie, Qinglian is not bad, but Zishuang is not a worry-free maid. If she really leaves her in the East Courtyard, I'm afraid that she will climb on my head one day."

Aunt Shen raised her eyebrows and said with a faint smile, "It's just a maid. What kind of big wave can she turn out? I'm afraid what you said is serious.

Aunt Shen's words made her mean. It seems that the reason why Zishuang dares to talk back to her has nothing to do with Aunt Shen's indulgence!

Ding Page came to his mind and asked with a faint smile, "Auntie, I don't know whether to ask or not."

Aunt Shen smiled kindly and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. Now that you have married Hao Ling, you are also my daughter-in-law."

Ding Page didn't like Aunt Shen's identity in her heart, but the fact was in front of her. She could only accept it. Aunt Shen was indeed Hao Ling's stepmother, and it was not too much to say that she was her daughter-in-law.

"Auntie, since the four maids were sent to my yard by my aunt, I don't know what mistakes the four maids will make in the future, will I give them to my aunt? Or should we just deal with it according to the rules of the East Courtyard?

Ding Xiaozi said with a faint smile, looking like a good baby, as if he would listen to Aunt Shen's opinions on everything.

Aunt Shen frowned when she heard the words and asked in surprise, "The rules of the East Courtyard? What does this mean?"

Ding Xiaozi explained indifferently, "Auntie, since the family has family rules, now that I have become friends with Hao Ling, the East Courtyard is also a small family, and naturally I also need a family rule to restrain it. After all, it's not as good as before.

Aunt Shen really didn't expect that Ding Xiaozi was so difficult to deal with. She actually wanted to have the rules of a small family. If this was agreed to her, the four maids' life in the East Courtyard would definitely be difficult in the future, but if she didn't agree to her, what she said was reasonable, and she couldn't refute it.

Ding Xiaozi looked at Aunt Shen calmly, looking respectful. In fact, only she understood the great things in her heart.

Her principle of life is also very simple. If people don't offend me, I won't offend them. If the four maids are really stable and do the maid's business, then she, the young lady, will not deliberately embarrass them. When they are old, she will match them with the boy, which is also a marriage for them and form a small family to live a good life. But if anyone has two minds, don't blame her for being cruel.

Aunt Shen thought for a moment and thought about it. She really didn't come up with any words to refute Ding's page, so she only said, "Of course, there must be a rule, but the four maids are all made by me personally. They are all people who follow the rules. They know what they should do and don't do, and they will never be arbitrary. For this, you can rest assured."

Ding Yizi nods and said, "I understand my aunt's heart, but there is an old saying? People are separated from each other. My aunt treats those four maids well, but I don't know if they know my aunt's kindness. I can't say that it's in the East Courtyard, so I used my aunt's name to act arbitrarily and ignore the master. That's not good. I lost my aunt's face and don't mention it. If it spreads to the outside, don't you mean to say that Hao's mansion is weak enough to bully the master?"

"This is a must!" When Aunt Shen heard the four words of slave bullying, she immediately showed extreme indignation. "Page, I understand what you mean. Since you want to think about the rules of the East Courtyard, it's up to you. However, there is a saying that I have to put it in the front. Although Hao Ling doesn't care much about the affairs of the East Courtyard, you have to discuss everything with him. Don't make your own decisions, okay?

Hearing what he wanted to hear, Ding Xiaozi was very happy. He nodded to Aunt Shen and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I've written it down. I won't deal with it indiscriminately."

Seeing that Ding Page was obedient, Aunt Shen nods faintly and winks at Shen's mother. Shen's mother was calm and quickly turned back to the inner room. When she was young, she came out again and handed over a brocade box to Aunt Shen.

Aunt Shen took the brocade box, then opened it, and took two gold bracelets out of it.

"My aunt didn't prepare anything good for you. These two bracelets are a gift given to you by my aunt. You have to serve the young master well in the future." Aunt Shen helped Ding Yizi bring up the bracelet and said with a smile.

Ding Yi took the bracelet quietly and nodded politely to Aunt Shen, "Thank you, aunt, I have remembered all the pages of my aunt's words. I will definitely serve the young master well in the future. Auntie, don't worry."

"Well, you are a good boy. It's a blessing for Hao Ling to marry you. In the past, I only saw that your family was a tofu seller, but I didn't expect that the dowry prepared by your parents for you was quite rich. Aunt Shen said with a smile.

Ding Xiaozi smiled, looked natural, and answered fluently, "My aunt doesn't know. My father passed away early. Although he left a lot of dowry for my two sisters, there is no man in the family. If others know that there are many Zhuangzi in the family, it is inevitable that others will be coveted. Therefore, my mother has made a decision earlier. She doesn't reveal the money in the family. She only does poverty, otherwise the orphans and widows will be bullied.

Aunt Shen saw that Ding Niazi's look was not fake, and the answer was so natural and fluent. If those dowry houses were really not her own, I'm afraid she couldn't pretend to be so much. After all, with her background, her scheming won't go anywhere, right?

Aunt Shen nodded and smiled, "Your mother is smart. This is a good idea. If there is money in the family and no man, she will indeed be bullied. Fortunately, your mother prepared early, otherwise I'm afraid that this kind of family business will be taken away by others, and it's not even your beautiful marriage now.

Ding Page sighed melancholy, wiped away the tears that did not exist in the corners of his eyes, and sighed, "This is also a helpless move. If it hadn't been for my father's early death, how would my Ding family have fallen into the current situation?"

That's the case. If Mr. Ding is still there, the Ding family will not be broken to this extent, and the Gao family may not withdraw from the family. Her fake Ding page is still going to marry Gao Chentian. Thinking of the two concubines of the Gao family, Ding Xiaozi couldn't help but feel sour.

At the beginning, when Gao's mother saw that Gao Chentian was determined to her, she actually came up with a way to give Gao Chentian two concubines, so as to divert Gao Chentian's attention. If you take a concubine for your son, you can take a concubine. However, you don't take a good look at his character. Unexpectedly, you have found that kind of unqualified person.
