Chapter 175 Thank You Gift 2
Even Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui, although the couple had a lot of silver bills given by Shen Li, had never seen so many silver bills at one time.
"Wow." Shen Yuanzhou closed the lid and looked at the family mysteriously. "Guess how much money is here?"
No one in the family cooperated with him. Shen Qian'an tried to snatch the box, but he dodged him.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't grab it, let me hold you for a while longer!"
"There are a full ten thousand taels of silver in here!"
After hearing this, the whole family looked at Shen Li at the same time, their eyes full of shock.
Shen Changshan also looked at Shen Li, "Ah Li, with so many banknotes, is it appropriate for us to just accept them?"
Shen Li thought it was nothing, and asked with a smile: "Dad, Mom, Brother, and Sister-in-law, do you think this banknote is too hot to handle?"
The whole family shook their heads. Who would complain that money is too hot?
"Then accept it. The Lu family is the richest family. I saved Lu Jing and Lu Nian, so it's only right for me to take this little money. Besides, only if we accept it can they feel at ease."
The whole family nodded, and then Shen Changshan took the box under Shen Yuanzhou's reluctant gaze and pushed it to Lin Cuicui for safekeeping.
Shen Li then took out the two deeds and handed them to Shen Changshan, "Dad, keep these for now, and we'll make plans after we get to Suzhou."
Shen Changshan didn't take it. "Ali, keep this. Consider it your dowry in the future."
As he said this, he looked calmly at the faces of everyone in the room. Seeing that his son and daughter-in-law did not show any strange expression on their faces, he nodded secretly.
Shen Li felt helpless about the fact that they always wanted to leave all the good things for her as a dowry, but under the approval of the whole family, she had to put the deed away again.
The land deed had been transferred to Shen Changshan's name this morning. Women cannot own property, it can only be registered under the name of their father or brother, unless a female household is established.
Although these things were under his own name, Shen Changshan had already made up his mind that these things would be given to Shen Li as a dowry in the future.
"Okay, I'll keep it for now. When we get to Suzhou, let's take a look at the size of these two manors and then we'll make plans."
"it is good."
After the family finished talking, they went to their respective rooms. Shen Yuanzhou called Shen Li mysteriously.
He took Shen Li to his own room, then lowered his voice and asked, "Ah Li, how long did it take you to master the inner skills?"
Shen Li raised her eyebrows, "What's wrong, Third Brother, have you made progress?"
Shen Yuanzhou sat down on the stool, his tone a little sad, "No, I just want to know how long it will take me to have internal strength."
Shen Li sat down next to him, picked up the teacup on the table, and poured a cup of tea.
When Shen Yuanzhou saw that his younger sister didn't say anything, his discouragement gradually disappeared, and he stared at Shen Li with his round eyes.
He drank two cups of tea in a row before putting it down and said slowly, "Third brother, do you remember what I told you at the beginning?"
"remember."
"Then don't be anxious, take your time and keep a calm mind. Third brother, you have to believe in yourself. One day you will be able to cultivate internal strength."
Shen Yuanzhou nodded fiercely, "You are right, little sister. I must believe in myself!"
Shen Li: There’s nothing wrong with what she said!
The third brother was so excited that he felt like he was fed a bowl of poisonous chicken soup.
"Okay, Third Brother, you practice first. I'll go back to my room first."
"Yes, little sister, please close the door for me when you leave. I need to meditate now."
Shen Li:......
Well, it's pretty good.
After returning to the room and meditating for an hour, I heard someone knocking at the door. I got up, opened the door, and saw it was Mother Wu.
"Miss Shen, the young lady and the young lady are here and want to see you. They are waiting in the front hall now."
"it is good."
Shen Li walked out of the room, closed the door, and followed my mother to the front hall.
Mu Nanzhi sat on the upper seat, her daughter Jiang Muxue stood beside her, and the little maid behind her was holding two small wooden boxes in her hands.
"Mrs. Jiang, Miss Jiang."
"Miss Shen, please take a seat."
Jiang Muxue had a perfect smile on her face and nodded slightly to Shen Li.
After Shen Li sat down, she looked at the mother and daughter, not knowing why they came to see her.
"Miss Shen, I didn't want to disturb your rest, but I came here anyway because I thought you wouldn't be here for long."
Shen Li smiled faintly, "Mrs. Jiang, you are too polite. What do you want to see me about today?"
Since she came to see her for something, Shen Li simply asked directly, not liking to beat around the bush.
Mu Nanzhi glanced at the maid beside her. The maid placed two wooden boxes on the table and opened them one by one.
Shen Li also saw what was inside. There were two boxes of gold, and in one of the boxes there was a deed. "What does Madam Jiang mean by this?"
Mu Nanzhi explained with a smile: "Miss Shen saved Ah Jing and Ah Nian, this is my thank you gift."
"Mrs. Jiang, I don't think this is necessary. I saved them both, and Mr. Lu has already paid me. I can't take yours."
Originally Shen Li thought that after she said this, Mu Nanzhi would give up the idea, but she didn't expect her to shake her head and refuse.
"Miss Shen, this is different. Lu Cheng gave it to him. This is a little token of my appreciation."
She paused for a while before slowly saying, "Miss Shen, you don't know that Ah Jin and Ah Nian are the last bloodline of my sister left in this world. Although they are safe now, that's because they met you."
"If they met anyone else, and were in that situation, I really can't imagine what would happen to the two of them."
"So, Miss Shen, don't refuse."
What she said made Shen Li feel as if she didn't accept it, she would always feel guilty.
Shen Li would not get involved in the family affairs of the Lu and Mu families, so she never took the initiative to ask about the situation of the Lu family.
But it is easy to imagine that among the wealthy and powerful, intrigue and murder are common, and there is nothing strange about it.
"Thank you, Madam Jiang," Shen Li reached out and picked up the deed paper, "but I only need this one."
After picking it up, the deed paper slowly opened, revealing the contents inside. Shebuli took a quick glance and found that it was the address of a store in Suzhou City, and the name on the address had been changed to Shen Changshan.
To be honest, this piece of paper made her more excited than the gold.
Mu Nanzhi nodded, "That's fine, but that's what A Jing asked me to give to you, so Miss Shen still has to accept my thank you gift."
"Okay, in that case, I won't be polite to Madam Jiang."
This time Shen Li did not refuse the two boxes of gold bars and accepted them directly. After she accepted them, the smile on Jiang Muxue's face widened a little.
"By the way, you can actually take a boat from here to Suzhou City. Does Miss Shen know?"
