Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy
Chapter 154: The Heir of the Last Wish
"Oh! In fact, this is equivalent to, from the very beginning, the money was divided into two parts. The gentleman or shopkeeper in charge of managing the store only knew that there were two owners, so he handed over the profits in different ways. In this way, as long as the store is still there, the money will never stop.
Even if the store encounters problems later, the principal can be withdrawn and it can be dealt with for a while. Grandpa is really smart!"
And the most important thing is that even if my uncle sold his share, the second boss of the store never touched his share and still had to remit money every year.
In this way, the executor, the collector and the user do not meet or know each other, which greatly reduces the probability of Shadow Guard being discovered. High! No wonder at the beginning, Shadow Nine said that they had an independent source of money, which was really correct.
"Yeah." Bai Yu nodded, looking pleased.
In this case, Xu Yixing has nothing to worry about. The Shadow Guard's finances will not be controlled by others, so there is naturally no need to worry about using them.
"Uncle, do you know how much dowry the old general gave to Madam Bai when she passed away?"
"I don't know about that." Bai Yu's expression didn't seem fake, but rather a little strange. Could it be that the Xu family didn't know?
"Yan'er, you should ask your father about this. When your sister got married, I was just a side branch and I wasn't even in the capital. How would I know this?"
"Oh...that's right. I just asked casually." The reason Xu Yixing asked this was that he wanted to know whether his father acted later because he had his eyes on his mother's dowry.
"Yan'er, you've asked so many questions and said so much today, what are you planning to do?"
Xu Yixing hadn't figured out how to answer this question and was still a little confused.
"Yan'er, I know a little about the affairs of the Sun Mansion and your behavior at home. Although you are not of the blood of our Bai family, you can think about your sister and avenge her. Uncle is actually very grateful to you. If you want to do anything, uncle is actually willing to help you."
Xu Yixing opened his mouth, but changed his tone: "Thank you, uncle. I didn't have anything to do. Sorry for disturbing you today. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now."
"Let's eat first before we go."
"No, my parents are waiting for me to go back home." Xu Yixing stood up and said goodbye. When he went out, it was already dark.
Bai Yu had been standing at the door of the guest room, watching her being picked up by Xu Qian. He waited until Yan arrived before he spoke:
"What do you think? I've long said that Yan'er is not an ordinary child. Ever since she came to inform us last time when the Xu family lost her sister's dowry, I knew that she would check it out sooner or later."
Yan took a few steps forward and gathered her husband's clothes. "Then tell her about the suicide note your father left behind?"
"I didn't tell you the content. I just feel like I shouldn't tell you now. She's going to marry the Seventh Prince, and she's in high spirits. If that suicide note really causes a conflict between her and her family, that would be bad."
"Actually, she has nothing to do with the Bai family. Maybe she won't believe or listen to you." Yan was holding a small lantern, and only the couple stood in the yard. The orange light shone through, warm and cozy.
"Whether she believes it or not is her business. Whether I can follow the old commander's instructions is my business. There is no conflict. And don't you find it strange that she cares so much about Xing'er and our family's affairs?"
Yan was also very puzzled. Logically speaking, they had half-brothers and since the elder sister was dead, the younger sister should have had little contact with her sister's mother's family. Yet, it seemed that Xu Yiyan came quite frequently.
"Husband, you showed me the suicide note. Even my father himself couldn't be sure. Why are you holding on to it?"
Bai Yu looked at the ground, his eyes uncertain: "My father has been very kind to me. I have not been able to fulfill his last wish. It is really unfilial! And Madam, if it is all speculation, then why is Xu Yiyan investigating this now?"
"what do you mean?"
"You've heard about what happened to Granny He before, right? I think it was Xu Yiyan and his gang who did it. Granny He was the one who delivered my sister back then."
"But we also asked her, and there was nothing unusual."
"Hmph!" Bai Yu turned his head away in disdain, sneering at Granny He: "Don't believe a word that old thing says. To be honest, you and I are not as courageous as Yan'er. If we had used some tricks on that old thing back then, she wouldn't have said anything!"
Yan smiled bitterly, thinking that I told you to use some tricks at that time, but you didn't listen and insisted on using courtesy first and then force. In the end, apart from spending a sum of money, I didn't get anything out of you.
"Then what do we do next?"
"Let's wait and see what happens from Yan'er. That girl doesn't trust us at all. I guess even if there is a plan, she will do it on her own. I hope nothing goes wrong."
Yan nodded. In fact, she really hoped that her husband would not do anything. After all, twenty years had passed. But she knew her husband well. He was a man who valued friendship and loyalty. Now that Xu Yiyan wanted to do it, she would let him do it first and see the effect.
Xu Yixing had no idea that the couple had such an untold secret. At this moment, she was sitting in the carriage returning to the city.
Siqin was next to her, and outside the car were the guards that Xu Qian and his father had brought with them, so it was not convenient for her to talk about anything in the car.
The more he learned about the Bai family, the more Xu Yixing admired his grandfather. He took one step and planned ten steps. In the past twenty years, there was no mistake at all, and he left the Shadow Guard intact to him.
Since her grandfather had worked so hard to pave the way for her and her mother, how could she bear to give up this family bond?
She made up her mind that if she found out that her mother's death was related to her father, then both the Xu family and her father would be abandoned by her.
Being abandoned was terrifying, and she had already felt it before her identity as an imposter was exposed.
She also understood that once she broke off relations with her family, the support and help that Lu Anyuan needed most might disappear. It was unknown whether he would be able to fulfill his promise at that time.
"Siqin, sometimes I really wish I wasn't my father's daughter."
"Huh?" Siqin didn't understand the meaning of these words. Daddy is very good to the young lady now and has considered everything for her. Why did the young lady say such things?
Xu Yixing did not explain, but returned home in silence and saw the gift list sent from the front yard. That was his dowry, which was now ready. This was the final version that his father and Gu had agreed on.
