Chapter 69
Tang Yanxiu got up and took the flipped gold cake into his hand, and looked at it carefully.

There are two lines of writing on the back of the gold cake.

The font on the first line is slightly larger, and it reads: Dakang Yishang.

The second line is teeny lowercase script, which can only be seen clearly if you look carefully: Dowry my beloved daughter Duan's Furong.

"What does this mean?" Mo Qianrui leaned over to take a look, and took another piece of gold cake casually. After turning it over, he found that the words written on it were exactly the same.

Not hearing Tang Yanxiu's answer, Mo Qianrui subconsciously looked up at him.

"Yan Xiu? What's wrong with you?"

At this time, Tang Yanxiu woke up suddenly, but there was still a little daze in his eyes.

"Dakang is the name of the country, and now the third generation of emperors of Dakang is on the throne. Yishang specifically refers to those businessmen who donated their property as military pay before the founding of Dakang."

"so what?"

Mo Qianrui didn't understand the meaning of the words "Dakang Yishang", but was confused by Tang Yanxiu's reaction when he saw these words.

"Dowry my beloved daughter Duan's Furong..." Tang Yanxiu stroked the words slowly with her fingers, and read them out word by word, then looked up at Mo Qianrui seriously, and said, "Xiaorui, you Do you know? In my previous life, my grandfather often took me to pay homage to my parents before he passed away. I remember clearly that my mother’s name on the tombstone is Duan Furong.”

"What? Could it be... By the way, didn't you say that before? Most of your cousin's dowry comes from your mother. If that's the case, these gold cakes must also belong to your mother."

"I'm not surprised by this. Xiaorui, if these dowries are yours, what will you do with them after you get married?"

"How to deal with it?" Mo Qianrui thought for a while and said, "Pick out the gold and silver jewelry and put them away separately, and then take out some favorite decorations. I will probably lock the rest in the warehouse."

"That's right, normal people would do that. So, what happened to these pressed gold cakes? I don't remember clearly what happened when I was a child, but I also know that my mother is definitely not stupid. Ordinarily, such It is absolutely impossible for precious things to be placed in the warehouse, especially gold cakes, which are expensive but take up very little space."

Mo Qianrui nodded in agreement.

The fact is true, more than 500 gold cakes, the weight is definitely not light, but if you really want to stack them neatly, at most a small box is enough.

Tang Yanxiu seemed to have thought of something, and her face was very ugly: "They told me that my father had an accident first, and then my mother followed. But now that I think about it, even if my mother has death thoughts, As the only child of her and my father, won't she help me arrange my future?"

"Unless, she didn't have time to do it at all. Or, from beginning to end, the death of your parents was a conspiracy!"

"There is another thing. I only know that my mother's natal family is rich, but I never knew that her natal family would be a Dakang charity merchant."

"Could it be that there are not many charity merchants in this dynasty? And there are still descendants?"

Tang Yanxiu put the gold cake aside, and then told Mo Qianrui about the Dakang charity business.

Speaking of which, Tang Yanxiu heard these things from his grandfather not long after he traveled through time.At that time, he had just got rid of the title of little fool, his grandfather was very rare about him, and often called him to talk to him.

I don't know how it started at that time, anyway, his grandfather suddenly mentioned the matter of the founding emperor of Dakang bestowing the title of righteous merchant.

Strangely, his grandfather did not tell him in detail about the charitable deeds of those charitable merchants back then, but asked him to remember the three charitable merchants of Dakang.

Wanjia in Jingdu County, Duanjia in Luyang County, and Huajia in Wanhua County.

The ancestral home of the three righteous merchants, one in the south, one in the north, and one in the middle school, take care of each other. It is said that the wealth of any one family is equal to that of the national treasury.

"God, then your mother's family is the Duan family in Luyang County?" Mo Qianrui was very surprised that the legendary wealth was incomparable, and there were three such powerful families in Dakang.

Although her education was not high in her previous life, she had also heard the story of Shen Wansan in the Ming Dynasty.Unexpectedly, the emperor of Dakang was actually a man of high moral character, or rather stupid?

"If these gold cakes have never been tampered with, they should be."

Naturally, no one would tamper with the gold cakes, because those originally belonged to Tang Yanxiu's cousin's dowry.Who do you show your hands and feet to?

In other words, it has been confirmed to be true.

If Tang Yanxiu's maternal ancestor's family is really Dakang Yishang Duan's family, then Tang Yanxiu has many things to consider.Originally, according to his plan, it was to nibble away at the Tang family bit by bit and take back everything that belonged to the long house.But now, he can use his strength to fight, especially when he has begun to doubt the truth behind the death of his parents.

"There is a difference between attempted murder and real murder. My aunt wanted to kill me to make room for her son. This has touched my bottom line. If I knew, the death of my parents was related to my aunt or If my uncle has something to do with it, then it's definitely not as simple as taking back the property."

Looking at Tang Yanxiu whose face became dark in an instant, Mo Qianrui was silent for a moment.

As an orphan who also lost his parents, Mo Qianrui could understand Tang Yanxiu's feelings.

In fact, even though she lost her beloved family in that terrible car accident in her previous life, she still hated the driver who made her an orphan.Accidents cannot be forgiven, let alone deliberate murder.

No matter what the reason is, it is absolutely impossible for the hatred of killing parents to be forgiven by the children.

"Where is Luyang County, do you know? Since the Duan family is a Dakang voluntary merchant, it must be very famous. I believe that as long as you go to Luyang County, it should not be difficult to find the Duan family." After thinking for a while, Mo Qianrui said.

A hint of surprise appeared on Tang Yanxiu's face: "Xiao Rui, are you asking me to leave Jingdu County and go to Luyang County?"

Taking a deep breath, Mo Qianrui decided to speak clearly: "Yan Xiu, ever since I knew your aunt was going to kill you, I've been afraid. Although you are prepared now, how can you have a thousand days?" The principle of preventing thieves? Killing a person is far easier than saving a person. If one day, your aunt goes all out and kills you in vain, what should you do?"

"Xiaorui, don't worry..."

"I can't rest assured. Accidents always happen in an instant. Unless it is the Daluo Immortal, otherwise no one can predict it in advance. Why don't you just find a way to leave the Tang family, even after working hard outside for a few years, then It’s too late to go back for revenge.”

Mo Qianrui's meaning couldn't be more clear. Tang Yanxiu's stay in the Tang family doesn't make much sense anymore.

True, he could cause trouble for his aunt from time to time, but most of those troubles were innocuous.However, he himself is on the verge of death at any time. Such a comparison is completely worth the candle.

"Let me think about it." Tang Yanxiu understood what Mo Qianrui said.

However, he really didn't want to leave the Tang family.

It's not that he is greedy for the money of the Tang family, and it's not that he doesn't want to part with his uncle, but... the Tang family is his home after all!
Unlike the house bought by his uncle and aunt after they got married in his previous life, the Tang's house was his grandfather's house and the home where his father grew up. It was the only place where he could find the traces of his beloved family.

Still, he was also afraid that leaving the Tang family would be easy, but coming back would be foolish.

Tang Yanxiu had many concerns, the most important one being that his identity would be taken away after he left the Tang family.However, after he expressed his concerns, he was refuted by Mo Qianrui.

"Aren't you a dishonorable name now? Instead of living in danger every day, why don't you go out and work hard, and when you become famous in the future, how can your uncle and aunt stand up to you? By the way, or you can still go out before you leave. Wouldn't it be nice to make a big fuss, let everyone know that the Tang family still has you, the eldest son of the eldest son, and embarrass your uncle and aunt by the way?"

After all, Mo Qianrui blinked mischievously. She knew that Tang Yanxiu liked to make trouble for his uncle and aunt, so this proposal would definitely be supported.It's just that this way it seems that she has a bad stomach.

"After making a big fuss, I will disappear again, so that others will think that my uncle and aunt did it?"

Mo Qianrui covered her face silently, she suddenly felt that she was so kind, that pranks and frame-ups were not on the same level.

But... she likes it!

The two confirmed some specific details, and Tang Yanxiu even planned to ransack the Tang family again before leaving.Especially those rare copies in his grandfather's study, he would never leave them in the Tang family's cheap uncle.

Soon, the opportunity belonging to Tang Yanxiu came.

There is still a big difference between this era and their previous life. Although there are not many direct descendants of the Tang family, there are quite a few collateral clans.

Simply put, who doesn't have a few poor relatives?
It's just that, for the Tang family, those so-called poor relatives are quite large in number, and all of them are decent clan members.If they came here to enjoy the autumn wind on weekdays, the direct descendants of the Tang family could be dismissed casually, but this time, they came here seriously to pay homage to Tang Yanxiu's grandfather.

Although it has been almost a month since his grandfather passed away, why is communication underdeveloped these days?The offshoots of the Tang family lived not too far away, so they rushed over immediately after hearing the news. Not only did they sincerely drag their families to pay respects, but also, looking at the posture, they planned to guard the old man of the Tang family for three years. The appearance of filial piety.

Different from the politeness of his uncle and aunt who suppressed their anger, Tang Yanxiu sincerely welcomed the visit of these tribesmen.

"When my grandfather was alive, I always taught me that I couldn't write two Tang characters in one stroke. Since you are all clansmen connected by blood, I ask you to stay here for a long time."

"These guys are about the same age as my cousin, why don't you ask my uncle to help them arrange to go to the government school in Jingdu County?"

"Cousin, you see that the sisters in the clan don't even have any jewelry, so you can give them some jewelry that is not commonly used."

"The season is about to change. Auntie, can you call the tailor who usually makes clothes for the mansion? Not to mention, you always have to prepare clothes for one person and four."

"The clan uncles are worrying about rewarding servants? Could it be that the mansion didn't give you the status of being masters?"

"Uncle, grandfather always said that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Shall we give them a few shops?"

……

However, when Tang Yanxiu happily caused all kinds of troubles for his uncle and aunt, Mo Qianrui added new troubles.
