Chapter 245 The Dowry
Lu Daxiong told Chen Xingyan about this after returning home in the evening.

Chen Xingyan didn't think there was anything wrong, anyway, she didn't intend to have too much contact with them from the beginning.

If they are sensible, then they don't care whether they have one more relative.

But they are not greedy enough, so don't blame yourself for being rude.

"Don't pay attention to them, they're just clowns. My mother was abandoned by them back then, and before Lou Sumei left, she snatched my mother's jewelry and even hurt my mother. Just because of this, I don't care. Maybe I really think of her as my aunt."

Lu Daxiong understood her mood, but felt that this matter was a little tricky.

"If you keep procrastinating, I'm afraid there will be trouble again between the two. I asked today, although they have no tokens to prove that they are your relatives, but Nalou told you that your mother was wearing a purple sachet at the time." , have you ever seen it?"

Chen Xingyan froze for a moment, then nodded.

Then ask Qi to help her find the things in the warehouse.

"I remember that there seemed to be a purple sachet in the dowry that my father ordered someone to send to me."

Qi's hands and feet were quick, and he brought the things in a short while.

Chen Xingyan held it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, but he couldn't see anything tricky.

"Mother Lou, do you think this is the sachet my grandmother made for my mother?"

Grandma Lou was able to confirm it with just one glance.

"That's right. The old lady's craftsmanship is good. This sachet has been around for some years. I thought it was long gone. I didn't expect the master to hand over these things for safekeeping."

"Well, it looks like an old thing. But the material and the gold and silver thread used are not ordinary things. When my mother came into Chen's house, did she wear this sachet?"

Nanny Lou nodded: "Yes, there was almost nothing valuable on Miss at that time."

Chen Xingyan was stunned, "Impossible? I remember that my mother has a lot of private houses? And my father sent me all the things, and even used a small box to store my mother's original dowry."

Grandma Lou smiled.

I knew that the master was a decent gentleman, and he never bothered to occupy things that did not belong to him.

"That small box was dug out by my wife after taking me to dig it out. The Lou family was defeated, and everyone thought that the Lou family was heavily in debt. They wished they could sever ties with the Lou family early, for fear that they would be in debt again. But at the beginning When the two young masters had an accident, the old lady was startled that something was wrong, so she had already reserved her hands."

It turned out that when Lou's family had an accident, the old lady ordered someone to buy a house in the name of Mother Lou. The house was not big, just a small courtyard where ordinary people lived, and it looked like it could accommodate seven or eight people.

The old lady had long buried a box of belongings in the yard, which was specially reserved for her daughter.

The old lady originally wanted to buy the house in the name of her daughter, but she was worried about being targeted in the future, so she changed it to Lou Xiang. This is mainly because Lou Xiang is loyal, and Lou Xiang is a slave. It is impossible to escape, so I am not worried that she will betray the Lord one day in the future.

Later, their master and servant dug up the things, and the small yard was sold by Lou Xiang a few years later and exchanged for money.

Only then did Chen Xingyan understand.I have to say that Jiang is really old and hot. If the old lady hadn't saved her hand back then, I am afraid that their master and servant would have a hard time.

"The old lady of the Chen family didn't want your mother to come in at the beginning. Later, the master told about the fact that she had a lot of dowry, and said that he had already brought her into the house. If she was allowed to move out, it would be too bad. reputation, it’s not good to marry again.”

Chen Xingyan chuckled.

Presumably, his father deliberately took him back to the mansion back then, and many people saw it, so the old lady had no choice but to nod.

The Chen family cares a lot about reputation.

He said that at that time his father hadn't been elected yet, if he was criticized, it would also affect his future.

"In my memory, my father was very kind to my mother, but my father would try his best to satisfy my mother for everything my mother could say. It's just that my mother seldom asked for anything, so my father would always pick out some jewelry by himself. It is because of this that my aunt hates my mother so much."

Grandma Lou sighed.

It is not so easy to clarify the cause and effect of all this.

When the master was young, he was really kind to Lou.

It was only after giving birth to Chen Xinglou that the master realized that he could not be too nice to Lou Shi on the bright side, so as not to let her face some ostracism and cold treatment in the inner house.

"Miss, it's all over. The dowry that Miss brought back in the past, except for a few calligraphy and paintings, has hardly been touched. I helped Miss tidy up the warehouse before, and the things that Miss used back then were all given to you by the master."

Chen Xingyan knew that her father still loved her very much.

Although Lou died young, she was considered happy during the years she lived in the Chen family. After all, she had sons and daughters, and also had a husband who devoted herself to her, so she had no worries about food and clothing.

"Put this thing away. If someone mentions it again, say that we have never seen it before."

Grandma Lou was stunned for a moment, realizing that the young lady was planning to open her eyes and tell nonsense.

But when I think of the evil things Lou Sumei did back then, I feel that this kind of person is not worthy of Miss to look at her more!
"Miss, even if we don't recognize him, I'm afraid that person won't give up easily. After all, you and uncle are also celebrities in Gaoyang County now. Especially Ruyifang, it's too famous."

Lu Daxiong also felt that the other party would not give up easily.

After all, who would want to miss something that is profitable?
"Then take it one step at a time. Big bear, you don't have to take the initiative to find them, just wait until they take the initiative to come to the door. You just said that you asked me and Mother Lou, and you said you didn't know, and you never saw any purple ones." Sachet."

Lu Daxiong nodded, everything the wife said was right.

Who are Lou Sumei and Han Huhu?

When I go to bed at night, I always think about how much money my family can bring in in the future. In my dreams, the house is full of gold and silver.

Waking up early the next morning, the couple did not eat at home, but took the copper plate to eat at the wonton shop outside. The taste of meat in their mouths was really refreshing!

"Let's go, I guess inspector Lu is also leaving now, let's go and wait now."

Of course Lou Sumei had no objection.

After being poor for 20 years, she finally had a chance to get rich again, and she felt like she was wasting her life by waiting an extra quarter of an hour.

The two hurried to the gate of the inspection department. After asking the guard, they learned that inspection inspector Lu hadn't arrived yet, so the couple squatted down beside the stone lion and waited in peace.

Lu Daxiong rode his horse and had just turned a few steps when he saw them, and couldn't help grinding his teeth secretly, as if he really couldn't get rid of them after being entangled!
