Chapter 14 Poor!
As soon as Shen Li entered the door of the Earl's Mansion, Zhong Ning came to look for her.
Zhong Ning asked with concern.
"Li'er, how are you doing outside today?"
Shen Li exchanged glances with Xiaoshuang, and spoke vaguely.
"Very good, this is not coming back."
Hearing this answer, Zhong Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good."
Although in the past few years, Shen Li and Zhong Ning have depended on each other for life, Zhong Ning, the stepmother, has almost made no mistakes.
But the communication between the two is very little, the main reason is their personalities.
Even after Shen Li came, she and Zhong Ning didn't have much to talk about.
No, Zhong Ning turned around and left after confirming that Shen Li was fine.
Shen Li thought of her plan and decided to tell Zhong Ning the plan sooner rather than later.
But before that, she had to figure out the actual situation of the Earl's Mansion, Shen Li called Zhong Ning to stop, and said with a wink.
"Mother, I went shopping two days ago and spent a lot of money, do you still have..."
Shen Li clicked to the end, Zhong Ning was stunned for a moment and then reacted, but his face showed embarrassment.
The little money she saved was used as a dowry for Shen Li, and now she really has no money in her hand.
Shen Li seldom asked her for money, and now that she had finally opened her mouth, she was afraid that there was nothing she could do.
Zhong Ning explained.
"When this month's routine silver comes down, I will give it to you at that time."
Shen Li originally wanted to take this opportunity to probe Zhong Ning's tone and see how rich their family was, but when she heard Zhong Ning's answer, she seemed to be struck by lightning.
Such a big house has no savings at all! And according to Zhong Ning, they still have to wait for others to send the money?
Shen Li resisted the urge to vomit blood, and asked.
Although Shen Li had already tried her best to restrain herself, her words still sounded aggressive.
Zhong Ning's cheeks were flushed, and he didn't have much confidence in what he said.
"Originally there was a property shop, but after your father left, your grandma said that I still have to take care of you, so I will have no time to take care of it, so I handed it over to your aunt."
Feeling Shen Li's eyes getting hotter, Zhong Ning did not forget to add a sentence.
"But as agreed at the beginning, we will pay us dividends every month."
Shen Li didn't know what words to use to describe her mood at this time, she said with a look of desperation.
"So how much did you give?"
Zhong Ning lowered his head, like a child who has done something wrong, with a deep tone.
“They said that the business has been bad and they haven’t made much money.”
So there are not many, no wonder...
Shen Li felt a headache, and it seemed that this handwriting was done by her patriarchal grandmother.
In her memory, her grandmother, Yin Shi, has always disliked her mother, not even her, not to mention Zhong Ning who "killed" Shen Hai as soon as she entered the door.
Since Shen Jiao's mother gave birth to two sons, she will naturally be favored by Yin Shi.
Shen Li sighed, and asked without any hope.
"The house deed and land deed must have been given to them."
Zhong Ning answered quickly.
"No, no, after I discussed marriage with your father, before he went to the frontier, I suddenly changed all the land under my name to my name, saying it was a dowry.
So now my name is on the house deed and land deed. "
Shen Li was suspicious for a moment after hearing this. He had heard of a generous dowry, but he hadn't seen one who put all his family property on it.
But this trace of doubt was quickly replaced by excitement.
She said excitedly.
"Come and show me."
