Changing His Life After Rain

Chapter 31 Mas Mating the Form of the Sincerity of the Ancestor

After Madam Gu got the key, she directly took out the dowry notebook from inside her room. Then, she opened the warehouse and compared one by one the objects in it in front of her husband.

Lady Gu called for her husband to come so that he would witness for himself that the door of the barn was open and ensure that he would not take anything from the inside should the number of things in it be reduced. She also made sure that her husband looked at her dowry notebook, then compared the number of objects in front of her.

Lady Gu wants to prove that she does not want to accuse her husband's favorite concubine. Do not let after the Prime Minister's emotions subside, the concubine instead looked for trouble again at Mrs Gu and her daughter.

Thus, under the watchful eye of the surly Prime Minister, the servants spent a great deal of time examining what was missing in them.

Madame Gu's dowry was indeed a lot. When he was married, the Prime Minister saw only a dozen boxes of dowry. But as a husband, Su Yan had no right to inquire about its contents, even after he had served as Prime Minister though.

Now that he had seen and heard the contents of the objects inside straight away, the Prime Minister became confused. With this amount of dowry, she wondered if her father-in-law had ever been bribed.

"Izin reported to the Master and the Madam, the missing item was the famous painting 'Painting Welcomes Spring', a high quality rock, two pairs of top quality jade, a pair of real gold conde skewers, a pair of real gold skewers, a necklace of sea pearls, two rare books, also ...."

"Enough. Tell Consort Liu to return the lost things. During this time the Madam was not at home, she was in charge of household affairs. Besides, he also raised a lot of personal money." The more he heard, the Prime Minister's face became more and more moody. He immediately cut out the servant's sentence, not wanting to hear any further.

"Master, Mister. These were all definitely the traps that Madam Gu had set up after conspiring with the others, where there might be this many things missing!" As soon as he heard the maid's report of the missing item list, Consort Liu still did not give up, he still wanted to fight back.

At first he felt that Lady Gu would not know what things were missing because of her dowry. But who would have thought, it turned out that he had the notebook. But it was only natural that Liu Mei'er did not know the existence of the book because when she entered this residence, she did not have a dowry. How does he know there's a dowry notebook?

"Congruent to set you up? She opened the door of this barn before me, her dowry was also matched one by one in front of me. Wh why? Do you feel like I'm also conspiring with Lady Gu to snatch your personal savings?"

Su Yan was furious once, then slapped Concubine Liu's face. Looking at him who was shedding tears, Su Yan pressed his chin and said, "No need to pretend to be helpless. You'd better give them all back honestly. If only there was one missing, I'd cut off your finger."

Finished saying so, Su Yan brushed off his arm and walked out.

Concubine Liu, who had never seen the Prime Minister, was shocked. He stopped crying. As soon as he recalled the Prime Minister's gaze just now, he felt his entire body cold.

Concubine Liu walked out of the warehouse door staggered, unlike before, where she always won while doing anything. After Xiao Xue received the list of missing objects, she immediately chased after Consort Liu and paddled him.

"Once you all go out. Please call Second Miss."

As soon as Lady Gu saw Consort Liu's condition just now, she did not feel that she had won anything. He just felt sad for serving this guy like the Prime Minister.

"Mom called me?" Not long after, Su Yue walked into the warehouse. As soon as he saw the number of dowries his mother turned out to be this much, Su Yue was shocked in her heart. In his previous life, when he saw his mother's dowry, most of it was taken by Consort Liu.

"Mother's wedding is a lot. But, the most useful one for Grandpa and the others was of course silver. It's just that Grandpa got caught up in a bribery case, so we shouldn't bring too much silver. Otherwise, Grandpa and the others would be doomed." Su Yue glanced at the dowry. There is a lot of silver in it.

"The one taken the most by Consort Liu is my silver. Though in total there were twenty thousand silver tahils, but it had already taken half." Madam Gu became a bit annoyed when she said that.

"Mom, I have a question. But, I don't know if this question is appropriate or not." Looking at the pile of precious stones before him, Su Yue so could not help but question the question that appeared in her heart.

"Yue'er would have wanted to ask why my dowry could be this much and if it had anything to do with Grandpa's bribery case, right? Because after all, the number of dowries has exceeded the limits of Grandpa's family's ability." A mother can certainly guess the contents of her daughter's mind. Ever since entering here, Su Yue had continued to gaze at all of these treasures with a judging gaze. How could Madam Gu not know?

Su Yue looked at her mother, then nodded slowly.

"Until now, I can't believe that your grandfather was bribed. Grandpa was a man who held justice very much, he hated dirty things like bribery. Where could he possibly be caught in a bribery case? Meanwhile, all these dowries were only a small portion of Grandpa's treasure. Most of the others belong to your Grandmother as well as your ancestors, and then to your ancestral mother. These are all treasures that were given in generations by the women in our family" Madam Gu said with a warm gaze.

"It's time to tell yourself, our family has a separate rule for dowry, which is if not in an emergency then the dowry should not be contested, it must be passed down from one generation to the next. Although after marriage a woman must obey her husband, they can still take this dowry to help the family of in-laws or their own family because our ancestors have long been very dear to girls, they were also worried that their daughters would be oppressed after marriage." Finished saying, Madam Gu stroked Su Yue's head. There was regret in his eyes.

"Yue'er, now Grandpa is in trouble. I have to use this dowry. Mother is useless, can not lower this dowry intact for you to marry later."

"Mom, don't say that. This is not all that matters. Isn't it based on the rules of the ancestors, this dowry is used to overcome the problems we are facing?" Seeing this dowry, Su Yue's heart became warm.

These are all preparations from his ancestors, which show the love of ancestors in their children. In Dongyou Kingdom that only prioritized the position of this man, the attention of his ancestors was precious.

"Mom, I'm so angry today. You better not go to Grandpa's house first. I go alone," Su Yue said in a somber tone while pulling her mother's hand.

But her mother still doubts. Hence, Su Yue said, "Mom, wait here. Help me keep Dad from looking for me. I'll go and come back as soon as I can, won't do anything."

Madam Gu thought for a moment, feeling that this word of her daughter had a point. Hence, he handed over 40 to 50 silver rods of which were about 200 tahils more to Su Yue.

"Take this money, go and come back as soon as you can." Because previously Su Yue said that if giving Grandpa too much silver would harm them, Madam Gu did not dare to give too much silver.

Later that night, Housekeeper Su came carrying a horse carriage to escort Su Yue out of the city.

Meanwhile, behind the two of them, there was someone standing beside the large door of the Su Residence while looking at them with a look full of hatred.
