After Chu Qingge visited Ning Ruyun, as soon as he turned around, Lu Er found him and said that Lu Yuan had invited him.

Lu Siming has passed.

Although Chu Qingge probably guessed what happened...

But I still couldn't help but think that the Lu family must be so poor that they can't even afford a hotel stay tonight.

Otherwise, why would he just mention this matter to Lu Siming and come to her without waiting for the couple to discuss it again...

Facts have proved that Chu Qingge guessed correctly, Lu Yuanwai did have no money.

To be precise, they didn’t bring much money with them.

The Lu family is like many wealthy people who fled Chenyang County. Most of their family assets consist of fields, real estate, and industrial businesses. Without time to sell them, they don't have much cash on hand.

What's more, the Lu family left in a hurry, and neither the gold hidden in the house nor the jewelry and clothes of the women in the backyard were sold.

Naturally, the cash they took away was not much, and after all calculation, it was only 2000 taels more than Chu Qingge.

But along the way, the food for so many of them and the feeding of their carriages and horses was not only not a small amount, but they themselves also needed to eat well, live well, and even have consumption, so let alone more than 2000 taels...

Even if they spend tens of thousands of taels, they can’t bear to spend it like this...

Chu Qingge looked at the account book that Butler Yan handed her and was speechless. When she left, she only had 200 taels in her hand. After meeting Anxiang Yingxiu and the others, she would have some money, but in fact it was not much.

After all, Anxiang Yingxiu didn't have much cash, so they had to save money for a future comeback.

So in order to buy food, she even borrowed Ning Ruyun's money.

Now that she saw that the Lu family actually had more than 2000 taels, she really felt that this money should be left to her.

She guaranteed that the Lu family would still have 2000 taels left from Chenyang County!

"Father, why don't you restrain your aunt and the others?" Although Chu Qingge knew about this, it was actually Butler Yan who was trying to show his favor to Lu Siming and deliberately did not remind Mr. Lu to restrain Aunt Zhao.

To help Lu Siming consume the Lu family's money...

But Chu Qingge still couldn't help but be curious, "Shouldn't all this money be in the hands of you and Butler Yan?"

Why does Aunt Zhao have money in her hand?

Probably thinking that Chu Qingge would ask this question, Lu Yuanwai was too embarrassed to speak.

Butler Yan said for him, "Young Madam, you don't know something. Due to Madam's poor health, the middle child in this family is divided into two parts. The front yard is in the hands of the old slave, and the back yard is in the hands of Aunt Zhao."

That's why Aunt Zhao is rich...

"As usual, most of Qianyuan's money is used for external business turnover. We were in a hurry at that time, and the external profits had not yet been recorded, so Qianyuan naturally did not have much cash."

There are also heavy amounts of gold and silver.

But the carrying capacity of the carriage was limited, so even if they were reluctant to give it up, they could only hide all the gold and silver.

Therefore, after the Lu family came out of Chenyang County, they basically relied on the backyard banknotes that Aunt Zhao brought out.

Yuan Lu thought that Aunt Zhao had a lot of money, so he never paid much attention to their consumption issues.

Who knew that Aunt Zhao didn't actually bring much money with her.

Without him, Aunt Zhao at the time had no idea that it would take so long for them to leave Chenyang County this time.

You may never even go back.

So not only did she not honestly take out her jewelry and give it to Butler Yan, but she hid it in the toilet at home.

She only took part of the money for the front yard.
