Chapter 262: Congratulations on Getting Two Manors
Su He stared blankly at the mountain of huge boxes.
"half?"
He Huiru nodded with certainty, "Yes, I will use the other half as capital for sea trade, and I will earn a dowry for Chuchu myself."
Su He shook his head. "You don't have to give me so much. I'm from the government, so it's my duty to save you. And you've paid a lot of money yourself. If you don't have this money, it's useless for me to plead with you. But let's not talk about this again. You were the helper that you found in advance. When you were cooperating with the encirclement and suppression of Zhou Tianfu, he committed suicide."
He Huiru and Zhou Chuchu nodded frantically, "I understand."
"As for the silver, just give me one thousand taels. I will take the five hundred taels and distribute them among everyone, so that everyone will know that your mission has been completed."
Su He stretched out a hand towards He Huiru, but was held by He Huiru. "No, if you don't take it, you are not giving me face. Come, I will show you. Chuchu, you come too, you two can choose together."
Su He subconsciously struggled to break free, but He Huiru hugged her even tighter. Damn it, why was she so strong?
Su He felt like he knew something.
"I've sold all my land to Ah Yu, and I've sold all the houses in the city to good friends. Here's about 20,000 taels, you two will each take half. And these huanghuali step-out beds, chaise longues, eight-immortal tables, multi-treasure cabinets, camphorwood boxes, etc. I was planning to sell them, but I couldn't take them with me when I moved with Chu Chu. He Hua, why don't you take all of them? Even though it's been more than 20 years, they're still in good condition. Take a look."
He Huiru pushed Su He to touch the furniture. There was not a trace of dust, which showed how carefully the owner took care of them.
"I didn't need these after I moved to this flower hall, so I put them in the warehouse."
Su He nodded secretly. She didn't know much about the material, but when she felt it with her hands, she felt that the texture was very delicate. When she smelled it closely, she could smell the fragrance of wood. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but her fatigue was somewhat relieved.
"Where do you live? I'll ask someone to take it to you later."
Su He hesitated a little, "Mrs. He, these are what your parents left for you, you can pass them on to Chu Chu. Now that the matter is over, no one will cause trouble for you. In fact, you don't have to leave Guangyuan."
Zhou Chuchu nodded in agreement. "Yes, yes, mother, let's not leave. Houses in Beijing are so expensive, and there's nothing to eat. I heard that people there look down on businessmen like us."
He Huiru also hesitated, but she decided not to leave because all her property had been sold.
"It just so happens that you have sold all the previous ones, so now you can buy new ones and start over."
He Huiru was slightly startled, looked at Chu Chu who nodded vigorously, and then looked at Su He who was smiling at her.
"There are still three days left. There is still time to find a good house. This time, you can think about where to live."
"Well, I need to think about it for a night."
If she stayed, she would have to plan her future life well, but it would be too late today.
He Huiru shook her head and focused her attention back on the dowry.
"There are still a lot of jewelry here. We women deal with it every day. I don't keep much, but each one is a fine product. Zhou Tianfu has been engaged in maritime trade in recent years, and the things he lacks the most are gems and ivory. These two large boxes, each of you take half."
"There are also six boxes full of red gold, jadeite, white jade, coral, turquoise, and green jade. I only kept the best quality ones. I secretly sold all the inferior ones over the years."
Su He looked at the boxes being opened one by one and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
He Huiru's maternal love is embodied in this full warehouse, making Su He envy Zhou Chuchu.
"Mrs. He, have you been ready to leave for a long time?"
He Huiru had nothing to hide from Su He, so she admitted it generously.
"Yes, Zhou Tianfu is not someone I can rely on. Now that I have Chuchu, I have to consider her more."
"Mom, as long as we live in peace in the future, I don't care whether I can get married or not."
Zhou Chuchu hugged her mother and cried, what's the good of getting married, there are no good men in this world.
He Huiru looked at her daughter in her arms disapprovingly, "How can you not get married? You have no descendants, and you are a woman, how will you survive in the future?"
"Mrs. He, in fact, Chuchu doesn't have to get married. Isn't it enough to find a son-in-law? You two are the closest in the world. If Chuchu gets married, you won't be able to look after her every day."
He Huiru frowned, "But most men who marry into a woman's family are not good."
"Hey, then you can find someone whose parents are both dead, or who is alone. What's the difference between this and marrying into the wife's family? When Chuchu has a child in the future, you can take care of the child every day, how great. If you really meet a bad one, you can just kill the father and keep the child. Anyway, you already have a child, so Chuchu is not afraid of no one to take care of her in her old age. Of course, I'm talking about a formal divorce."
He Huiru chuckled, "You are full of ideas. Chuchu is already too late, so I am not afraid of waiting for another two years. It is a blessing for us mother and daughter to be able to depend on each other. Hehua, this is also thanks to you. I must give you half of these jewelry."
Su He had a headache. How did this happen again?
"Mrs. He, I don't really care about jewelry. I prefer real gold and silver. Or, do you still have a farm that you haven't sold? Give me one. I've always wanted a farm."
Zhuangzi?
He Huiru clapped her hands excitedly, "Yes, I still have two farms that I haven't sold yet. I'll give them all to you. There's no point in me coming."
Su He accepted it readily. She could see that if she didn't give him something, He Huiru would never let her go.
Well, I can use Zhuangzi to pay off the life-saving favor, and everyone will feel relieved.
"We'll go to the title deed later. By the way, since you don't want these jewelry and wooden ornaments, I'll just give you silver. Those two farms were not originally mine. I found them from Manager Zhou's room. This is just a bonus."
Su He thought of the unreasonable Manager Zhou and asked curiously about his fate.
"Oh, he died for his master. He is indeed a good dog raised by Zhou Tianfu."
He Huiru said it lightly. Su He didn't believe at all that the bastard would die for his master.
But I definitely can't ask about this in detail.
"Mrs. He, I'm done with the dowry. I'm going to help out in the front hall. We're a bit shorthanded for today's sales."
"Sister Lotus, I'll go too. I can help serve refreshments."
Zhou Chuchu was reluctant to leave this reliable older sister, so she decided to be a follower.
He Huiru used the excuse that she was worried about her daughter, so the three of them went to the front hall together.
The auction had already started for quite a while. Su He looked at Constable Shi who was awkwardly selling vases in the front and felt very sympathetic. This job was originally done by the legal advisor and Magistrate Ge, but who knew that the two of them would just walk away like this.
