Chapter 1085 The Exterminated Cousin 35

Of course, Cui Zhenzhu never thought that before Mrs. Wu proposed marriage to her family, An Ran had already asked Mrs. Wu to help her find a marriage partner, and the target was not Wu Sanlang, but someone outside the house. In other words, as expected, Wu Sanlang was not wanted by An Ran. He didn't take a fancy to Wu Sanlang at all back then, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Mrs. Wu to find someone for her outside.

If this is really the case, then when I thought I had robbed someone, and felt proud, maybe they were still laughing at me behind my back, thinking that she had robbed someone she didn't want.

Thinking of this, Cui Zhenzhu couldn't help but feel her face burning.

At this time, Mrs. Wu, who had been lingering in bed, finally died of excessive poisoning.

Although it is a chronic poison, no matter how chronic it is, after a few years, it will be dead.

Mrs. Wu naturally didn't want to die.

In fact, she has never been able to figure out how An Ran got the poison he gave her into her body. Unfortunately, she is too sick now and can't get out of bed at all. Otherwise, she really wants to chase Zhenguo. General's Mansion, ask An Ran why.

It's a pity that she can't ask, because she is destined to die in peace.

Because Mrs. Wu is about to die, Cui Zhenzhu no longer has time to pay attention to the situation in An Ran, but has to take care of the funeral at home.

In the past, we might have been busy dividing Mrs. Wu’s private room, but now there is no need to divide it, because most of Mrs. Wu’s private room has been confiscated after the house raid, and there is not much left.

At that time, the Wu family's house was ransacked, and a lot of things were confiscated from the rooms of the grandmothers and wives in charge of the house. Those who were in charge of the house, such as the second grandmother Wu and the second wife Wu, all confiscated two or three million worth of things. Otherwise, just How can the Wu family copy more than one million things from the public house? After all, the Wu family doesn't have much in the public house.

Although it was later determined that Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu were of different natures, and the property that did not violate the rules was returned, but to say that the property that did not violate the rules was to return the dowry that Mrs. Wu brought from her natal family. After all, it was from her natal family. The dowry brought, no matter what, could not be illegal, so it was returned, but the other officials did not return it.

As for the dowry, Mrs. Wu's dowry back then was limited. After all, she was not marrying the eldest son who could inherit the title, so the betrothal gift given by the Wu family was naturally not as good as that for marrying the eldest daughter-in-law. The dowry given by the Wang family is less than that of the big house, so the dowry paid by the Wang family will naturally not exceed this amount, so it is only tens of thousands taels.

Although on the surface, tens of thousands taels is a lot, but some furniture, fabrics, clothes, beds, etc., have been worthless now after so many years, that is, some fields are still worth some money.

These are just ten or twenty thousand taels of silver. After Mrs. Wu’s death, her family will share it with Grandma Wu’s family. The family can probably divide ten thousand taels of silver, although for ordinary families, ten thousand taels of silver Two taels of silver is enough for a lifetime, but for the Wu family, who spends extravagantly, ten thousand taels of silver can't cover anything.

Moreover, since he got rich after selling his relatives' villa, Wu Sanlang couldn't stand the hard life in the past, and insisted that the food, clothing, housing and transportation should be the same as before, not too miserable - there was no way, it was difficult to go from luxury to frugality, and Wu Sanlang was not No matter how resilient a person is, they will naturally not be able to endure the hard times.

If Wu Sanlang wants to live a good life, his expenses will naturally rise.

In fact, Cui Zhenzhu is certainly not willing to live such a luxurious life. Although she is extremely eager for fame, wealth and power, she does not have a strong desire for material things. She only needs to have enough food and clothing, and she does not have to wear good clothes and eat well. .

But since Wu Sanlang made a request, Cui Zhenzhu didn't dare to refuse, lest she offend Wu Sanlang, which would be bad for her, and she would lose her current life.

So since Wu Sanlang said this, Cui Zhenzhu naturally had no choice but to do what Wu Sanlang wanted.

And Wu Sanlang lives a luxurious life. We can't let Wu Sanlang's parents live a poor life. If word gets out that they live a luxurious life as a young couple, but the two elders live a poor life, why don't they? They were said to be unfilial, so not only Wu Sanlang lived a good life, but Mr. Wu Er and his wife also lived a luxurious life.

They all live a luxurious life, aren’t these expenses going up?

In fact, before the death of Mrs. Wu, Cui Zhenzhu was already worried that her income could not cover her expenses. In the future, she would have to sit back and have nothing, and one day she would become a pauper and drink from the northwest wind.

Fortunately Mrs. Wu is dead now.

Yes, Cui Zhenzhu is very looking forward to the death of Mrs. Wu.

First of all, Mrs. Wu spent too much money on medicine. Mrs. Wu didn’t want to die, so she always asked famous doctors to see if anyone could break the poison. The cost is naturally very high, so it is normal to spend a lot of money.

Cui Zhenzhu was naturally not happy to spend so much money on a dying person, but because the other person was her mother-in-law, she couldn't say anything. She could only hope in her heart that she would die soon so that she could save the money. After all, she was already unable to make ends meet, having nothing to live on, and spending huge sums of money on medical expenses every day, which was unbearable. She was really worried that Mrs. Wu Er would spend all her family's money one day.

Now that she is finally dead and there is no need to spend a lot of money on her, Cui Zhenzhu is naturally happy.

Secondly, Cui Zhenzhen also thought about waiting for Mrs. Wu's death, using the excuse of mourning, not to live too extravagantly, lowering the living standard of the family, and controlling the situation of sitting and eating.

Normally, she didn't dare to go against Wu Sanlang for no reason, but now that her wife is dead, she needs to live a more frugal life, which is what she should do. Even Wu Sanlang can't say that what she did is wrong. Besides, although Wu Sanlang values ​​​​enjoyment, But she was still a filial person. After her mother passed away, she said she had lived a more frugal funeral, which I think Wu Sanlang would agree with.

After Mrs. Wu passed away, Cui Zhenzhu proposed this to Wu Sanlang, and Wu Sanlang really had no objection. At that moment, Cui Zhenzhu couldn't help but be happy and quickly lowered her living standard.

Seeing that the growing deficit had been temporarily stopped, Cui Zhenzhu couldn't help but think that his wife died at the right time.

He secretly thought that in the future, if the master passes away, his living standard can be reduced for another three years. In this way, he can buy some time and maybe save some money for the family. But it is a pity that the two of them combined can only observe mourning for five years - twenty-seven years of mourning for their parents. Months, not three years, so the total time between the two of them is only about five years - if the time is longer, she is sure to be able to make the family prosperous. Now there are only five years, and in five years Wu If Saburo wants to restore his previous living standard, he will still not have enough money in the future.

So Cui Zhenzhen can only hope that after nearly five years of low-level living, Wu Sanlang can develop the habit of living a slightly worse life, and stop thinking about a luxurious life all day long. Then he will not have to worry about his family's health. He was completely defeated by Wu Sanlang.
