"Grandma, let's talk business first." Shi Niang hurriedly held down her grandparents who were about to cry again, and had three boxes delivered to her. She opened them one by one, took out the small box herself, and placed her hands on the case in front of Lu Taigong and his wife.

, "This is 200,000 taels of silver in a deposit box. Everything else that can be found is here. Some furniture, cloth and other cumbersome things were lost. These were made up by my granddaughter. It was returned after a delay of sixteen years. This is a convenient way."

It’s not my fault, I hope my grandparents will forgive me.”

The fourth box was brought in and opened. It was a box full of silver ingots. This was what she was talking about. Whatever was missing, she would make up for it herself.

Fang Yun and his wife looked at the box of silver ingots and were surprised. They didn't expect that this person would buy a whole box of silver ingots.

The Lu family is stupid again, what does this mean?

"Tai Gong, according to law, half of the Lu family's mother's dowry should be returned, and the other half should be added to Shi Niang's dowry. Shi Niang is still young, so these should be handed over to the Lu family." Fang Yun hurriedly clasped his fists and spoke to Lu Taigong.

.

"No, the eldest brother is wrong." Shi Niang knelt down and sat in front of Lu Taigong and his wife, and said hurriedly, "The Lu family gave the dowry to my mother. My mother died young, leaving only my little daughter. The little daughter was unfilial, and her loving mother died early due to exhaustion.

, but because of my mother's cleverness, my little girl has been safe for sixteen years. How can my little girl have the face to accept any favor from the Lu family again? All must be returned!"

Fang Yun was startled. His sister didn't want to take any of it, so she made such a fuss yesterday because she wanted to return all the money. She had to make up for the missing items. She was really worried.

"Grandpa, the Lu family's mother died early, and my sister has been feeling guilty. Please forgive me, Grandpa!" Fang Yun hurriedly stepped forward and laughed with her.

"You are so dismissive of your mother's relics?" Lu Xian didn't even remember his aunt's face. Now that he saw a cousin, he didn't think much about it. Now he returns all the aunt's dowry. This is a bit of a slap in the face.

Already.

"What my cousin said is absolutely true. Although her parents were disobedient when she was a baby, the little girl has always had respect for her biological mother. Therefore, in the dowry, the little girl left the "Encouragement to Learning" by Scholar Mu, which will be placed in the little girl's room.

"Be alert at all times."

"What does this sound like?" Lu Xian tilted his head, feeling a little hesitant.

Grandpa hurriedly helped Shi Niang up and said, "What's the big deal about these things? Now, these are your dowry, and they will be carried back later. Listen clearly, what you sent back was taken by your grandfather. This is your dowry given to you by your grandfather."

Your wealth has nothing to do with your mother."

"That's right, that's right." The old lady smiled and nodded.

"Grandpa, grandma, and my daughter have moved to my eldest brother's house. Please don't embarrass the eldest brother and his wife."

"Exactly, exactly. Your Majesty must accept it, otherwise, this junior will not know how to gain a foothold in the army." Fang Yun hurriedly followed and knelt down, very frightened.

"Brother Fang Xian has always been a gentleman. If these things are piled up in Brother Fang Xian's house, I'm afraid it will attract criticism. Why don't my grandfather seal them up for my sister? When my sister decides to get married, the Lu family will send a thick dowry with great fanfare. Isn't it the best of both worlds?

." Lu Xian hurriedly said to his grandfather.

"What's the matter with you? Do you have a say in this family?" The eldest uncle finally spoke, glanced at his nephew, and thought, "We don't know how you have been living in these years. But I'd like to thank you for keeping me in mind.

Write a letter and send some female workers to appease the elders. You just returned to the capital yesterday, and today you sent back the dowry with such fanfare, how do you think about you and how do you think about you?"

Lu Hu is an experienced Taoist, and he still has some affection for his only niece.

"Yes, my niece realizes her mistake." Anyway, the things have been sent back, so it doesn't matter if she has to be scolded for a while.

"Your temperament is quite similar to your mother's. You admit your mistakes quickly, but you just don't change." The eldest aunt hurriedly helped up Shi Niang, pinched her little face, and after she finished speaking, she smiled and looked long.

He let out a long sigh and said, "I'm here. I'll stay here for just a few days. Your mother's house will be arranged as it is. It's like Grandpa and the others are reluctant to throw away their childhood toys."

"Mr. Fang, how many days can you let Shi Niang stay here?" Mrs. Lu looked at Fang Yun hurriedly.

"Originally, this is what should be done. However, my sister just returned to the capital yesterday and came to visit the grandpa and the old lady first thing today. However, my nephew also needs to take his second sister to visit his relatives. He must not be rude. He also has to take his concubine with him.

I'm going around socializing with my sister. How about this? My wife will come to pick her up early tomorrow morning." Fang Yun thought for a moment, raised his head and said.

The grandpa nodded, the Lu family could not take Shi Niang out for entertainment on behalf of the Fang family. Shi Niang was already sixteen years old, and it was necessary to let every family in the capital know that the Fang family's legitimate daughter had returned.

"It's very appropriate. I won't bother your wife tomorrow. I'll ask her aunt to take her back to your place." The old man nodded and patted Fang Yun gently.

Shi Niang watched helplessly as Fang Yun and his wife left, not even having lunch, saying that the children were at home. Isn't that too mean-spirited? Everyone knew that the Lu family did not need outsiders like them to be present at this time.

Lunch is a big long table, and everyone sits around it. Even though each person has a meal, they are still warm and affectionate.

"Son, where have you been all these years? My grandmother always cried when she received your letters. When she was seriously ill last year, she even said in her heart that she could not die and she would wait for you to come back." My eldest aunt was busy holding vegetables for her.

Lu Han was still young when her eldest aunt married in. She was really raised as a daughter and sent out properly. But within a year, she was gone. The child was said to have been rescued, but where was she?

Shi Ye went crazy to look for the child, but she didn't expect that it would be sixteen years before she saw her for the first time. Looking at her face, she knew that this was Lu Han's child. She had just burst into tears.

"It's in the mountains outside the city. I guess that's where Mom wants to escape." Shi Niang has just seen the distance between the Lu family and Uncle Weiwu's house. Thinking about it, she knows very well that the escape route to the Lu family has been blocked. She can

Not many people left. So after thinking about it, she decided to leave the city and go to Karma Temple, which was a forbidden area for the royal family and was guarded by soldiers. As long as she entered the woods, she could survive.

"It's just outside the city. Why aren't you allowing me to visit?" the old lady asked hurriedly.

"If my family knew about the royal forbidden area, I would be afraid that the people coming in and out would arouse people's imagination. Besides, my adoptive mother doesn't want people to know. I have been raised there for the past sixteen years, which will be detrimental to my reputation."

"Where...?" The eldest aunt was really surprised and hesitated for a moment. Seeing that everyone was confused, she immediately shut up. She also knew that she couldn't talk about it.

"It's absolutely true. Seeing you like this, I also know that your adoptive mother has taken good care of you in the past sixteen years. If there is a chance, the whole family of the Lu family will kowtow to her." Taigong Lu nodded, so that the eldest daughter-in-law could understand.

, he certainly understands it.

"How come you moved out early today, but the Fang family is in trouble with you?" The eldest uncle nodded and changed the topic.

"Oh, let me ask, why did my mother let me marry the Fang family to fill the house? My mother has so much dowry and she is good-looking. Is it better to marry anyone than to marry Fang Xian?" At this point, Shi Niang asked hurriedly.

.

"In his later years, the late emperor believed in Huang Lao's skills, and that year he wanted to select a group of virgins to enter the palace to practice Taoism." Lu Xian said hurriedly, "My aunt's horoscope is quite suitable."
