    I still remember that when Luo Shuyu married to the Three Princes’ Mansion, Liu still helped him take care of the dowry at that time. The dowry was the same level as an ordinary son’s marriage, plus the bride price from the Three Princes’ Mansion was barely enough. To deal with the past, Luo Shuyu did not have any opinion on this. Besides, he was actually not very good at making requests from others. Moreover, he deeply felt that Luo Renshou was a book of courtesy, and his family was not as wealthy as others. It doesn't matter.

    After opening his mother's dowry storeroom, he felt how stupid he was back then, and how long Luo Renshou fooled him.

    His mother was a real Shili Hongzhuang back then. This box, one by one, is here, even if it is embezzled by Liu, but the big objects are still there. She didn't dare to take it out blatantly. They were all first-class. Good material.

    It's really embarrassing. If he didn't suddenly mad at Luo Renshou, would this dowry still be misappropriated by them? His son is really sorry to his deceased mother, and blames him for believing in those unsuspecting and snakes. The hearted person.

    Fortunately, it is not too late.

    How did he get his mother's dowry list, thanks to the official lady in the previous life who mentioned to him the mink robe worn by Luo Shuyu.

    After returning from the rebirth, Luo Shuyu immediately asked Qingwang to send someone to find his maternal grandfather’s family. Although the Chen family was gone, the camel was bigger than the horse and used to be a big family. Even if the family moved out of the capital, They still have a place in the capital. Through several time-honored shops, Luo Shuyu found his mother's nanny. A few days ago, she was invited to Luofu to meet Luo Shuyu quietly. The other party handed him a box in tears, saying that she was finally waiting for the young lady’s child to come to her. Inside, there was a list of Chen’s dowry and one. An unsigned letter.

    The letter was written by his grandfather to his mother, but unfortunately his mother couldn't afford it after they left Beijing. This difference is the eternal separation of heaven and man. He has never seen this letter again. If he is not born again, he will still miss it again. The content of the letter is not long, mainly because she hopes that she can take good care of herself without worrying about her parents, her brother and others. Even if they are sent back to their ancestral home, they will have a good life.

    The Chen family was also the best in the capital back then. They were favored by the emperor, but the emperor’s favor would always be outdated, and it would be easy to be remembered when he became famous. Then something happened and Luo Shuyu’s grandfather was removed from Beijing.

    The nanny said that she didn't go to Luofu to find his mother, but the people from Luofu drove her out twice, always looking for reasons not to let them see each other. What she said was that she was afraid that the Chen family would hurt the Luo family. In fact, something was hidden from the Chen family.

    Luo Shuyu calculated the time. The nanny went to Luofu to find his mother after the Chen’s incident had settled. After carefully calculating the time, his mother was already sick at that time, and the condition was extremely fierce. It didn’t take long. He passed away. When the nurse came back, she only learned the news of her death. Because of this, the letter entrusted by his grandfather was never sent out until Luo Shuyu sent someone to find someone.

    Now, ten years after his mother's death, the Chen family has also left Beijing for many years.

    If Luo Shuyu had not been born again and had not read the book, perhaps he would never know that his grandfather left a letter to his mother and this dowry list.

    Luo Shuyu personally checked the warehouse. When Luo Renshou handed him the warehouse key, Luo Shuyu also emphasized that all Liu took away must be moved back, otherwise he would use silver to make up for the lost part. His mother never opened the warehouse. After death, the good things were ruined by these people. The dowry not only raised these people, but they also used the dowry to bully her son. If his mother had spirit in the sky, she would be so angry that she wanted to jump out of the coffin.

    Luo Shuyu didn't know when Liu started to manage this warehouse, there will only be few things in it.

    He re-registered the dowry in the warehouse and compared it with the original dowry list one by one, and wrote down everything that was not. With the people brought by Mother Feng, the inventory speed was accelerated, and it took two days to sort out everything, and the missing part was written and handed to Luo Renshou.

    Luo Renshou pretended to lock up the Liu family that day because he was afraid that Luo Shuyu would cause the matter to cause serious consequences. One is that he has no face, and the other is that if outsiders know that the present official book of the Ministry of Rites is greedy for his wife’s dowry, he will also let Jishi profligate. He was used to subsidize his family, and he was known by the censor that he hadn't taken part in a book. The image of an upright official he had built over the years was afraid that it would not exist. It is estimated that his official career would end here, and he could not make any further progress.

    With the checklist, Luo Shuyu appeared in Luo Renshou's study. He came to be held accountable and demand compensation.

    Luo Renshou now feels toothache when he sees Luo Shuyu, and doesn't want to meet him at all, but feels that he is now like a soul who only wants his life, haunting him.

    From the day when he received the imperial decree of marriage, he hadn't been comfortable for a day, and he was one of the first two big people around the dowry of his deceased wife.

    "Father, this is a list of dowry items that the warehouse lacks. I won't say much about anything else. The key is in your hands. The person who embezzled Liu is better than me. You don't know whether or not you have embezzled things. Spend a little bit on me. I came here today to hope to get back the dowry I took out, otherwise I can only come and get things back one by one. My face may be thicker than yours, and I don't think you want to see it either."

    Luo Renshou was blocked by his preemptive move.

    He only started to look straight at this son who had been quiet and uncompromising since he was a child. In retrospect, he mostly took a perfunctory attitude towards this son, and rarely cared about him. But on the day when the decree came down, he became another person.

    It turned out that he didn't fight or grab, but the marriage to the third prince gave him this opportunity before the time came.

    Besides, when he wanted to return to Chen's dowry, he couldn't make any mistakes from the etiquette point of view. This is what made Luo Renshou feel aggrieved. He was angry and unwilling to attack him. Luo Shuyu was morally speaking with him. He has nothing to do when it comes to this matter.

    Luo Renshou thought about it, and once again pushed all his faults to Liu's head: "Liu's family is born in a small family and has no insight. Seeing money, it will inevitably be a little greedy. I will make up for these when I look back."

    "You have a father." Luo Shuyu thought. Talking about money hurts feelings, but once there is no feelings, he can only talk about money. "Father can be fair and just, not biased."

    Luo Renshou was overwhelmed by the high hat he suddenly gave him, and he was very upset, so he sent to call the butler.

    In fact, when Luo Shuyu went to find Luo Renshou, he sent someone to call the housekeeper in advance. Luo Renshou's words for a kind father came before he had time to export the steward. It was impossible to play the emotional card. Luo Shuyu did not smile at him now.

    Although the housekeeper is a subordinate, he has worked in Luo's family longer than Luo Shuyu's age. What kind of attitude Luo Renshou usually treats Luo Shuyu? In front of Luo Shuyu, the butler also respected him, not daring to make trouble.

    Luo Renshou asked him, "How did you do the things that you asked you to do the last two days?"

    When the housekeeper saw Luo Shuyu, he knew which one Luo Renshou was referring to. The biggest trouble in recent days was the dowry of the father-in-law. Everyone in the family should know. Everyone said that the sudden change in his temperament was because the wife in front of him gave him a dream, otherwise, it is too strange that a person would no longer tolerate it. The housekeeper has been in the Luo family for many years, and his heart trembled slightly after seeing more private matters. , Thinking about whether he had done anything to be sorry for him, and now facing Luo Shuyu, he dare not hold his head up and speak as usual.

    Steward: "Going back to the master, I have packed all the items that can be retrieved in boxes. The eldest, the second, the fourth and the fifth sons have all been found there. Now they are locked in the warehouse, and I didn't dare to move them."

    Luo Renshou: "Ming will send people to move to Shu Yu's yard."

    Steward: "Yes, this is the list. Please also look at the master and the third son." He wrote two copies, one for Luo Renshou and one for Luo Shuyu.

    Luo Shuyu quickly glanced at the retrieved dowry list and evoked a shallow sneer. It seemed that Liu was not very cooperative. When he checked the warehouse, he was at least 30% less. What was recovered was only a little bit of the 30% of the fur, not splashing at all. Splash.

    Luo Renshou frowned, "Just so?" What does Liu mean? He is losing face at Luo Shuyu every day, and he still doesn't know how to share his worries for him! Still hiding at this time!

    The steward said: "That's all the lady said."

    Luo Renshou patted the list on the table: "She is so bold!"

    Luo Shuyu thought to himself that Luo Renshou was still playing here to show him, it was really boring.

    Steward: "Master, this..."

    Luo Renshou looked at Luo Shuyu: "Shu Yu, tomorrow I will let Liu give you an account, and whatever is due will be returned to you."

    Luo Shuyu did not give Luo Renshou room for bargaining. He pointed to the price behind each item: "Father, you don't have to force it if you can't find it. I'm very happy to find it. I don't know how to be a lion in my mother's dowry. Open your mouth, I will not ask for one more. I just hope that my mother will be at ease below and don’t worry about me. There is a corresponding value behind the missing list I gave you, all of which have been converted, and I really can’t find it. You can make up for it at the above price. In recent years, Liu’s younger brother has used your reputation to set up a lot of properties outside. I must have fed our family’s money. As for my dowry, you can take care of it. Just fine, it doesn’t matter if it’s less, I don’t think the third prince will embarrass our family too much."

    When Luo Renshou heard him mention Liu's younger brother, he was shocked. How did Luo Shuyu know? He didn't even know that Liu still had something to hide from him! Later, when he saw the silver converted from the used dowry, the cold sweat almost shed from his forehead, but he can only pretend to be calm, and it seems reasonable for Luo Shuyu not to talk to him.

    He pretended to be very helpless and sighed: "Okay, I am sorry for this matter, and I am sorry for your mother and you. I will convert it into money and shop for you. I will deal with this matter the day after tomorrow at the latest. You. Over the years, it was also my negligence." He will also settle the account of Liu's subsidy to his brother.

    Luo Shuyu refused to pick him up. He just listened blankly. Luo Renshou felt at a loss. His emotional cards hit the south wall. He was quite embarrassed. If he had been in the past, he could still rebuke Luo Shuyu, but now, it is different now. Old days.

    At this time, the outsiders passed the eldest master and Shen Gongzi over together.

    Luo Shuyu raised his eyelids, and the relationship between eldest brother and Shen Mingyun is as good as ever.

    Liu's two sons, the eldest brother Luo Shumo, and the second brother Luo Shuhan.

    Luo Renshou said immediately, "Let them in."

    If Luo Shumo and Luo Shuhan came to Luo Renshou's yard together, Luo Shuyu would avoid it for the time being, but Shen Mingyun was there, he had a reason to stay, and he didn't seem to need to avoid it deliberately, but he wanted to know what Shen Mingyun started to engage in again.

    The speed of Shen Mingyun's system publishing tasks is still very fast.

    As soon as the two came in, they saw Luo Shuyu leisurely drinking tea.

    Luo Renshou wanted to send Luo Shuyu back, but he was embarrassed by what happened just now, and he really couldn't say it.

    Luo Shumo called Luo Shuyu: "Shu Yu."

    Luo Shuyu didn't have a deep impression of this elder brother. He only knew that he had been close to the prince. When he was a child, he went to the palace and worked as a student for a while, and it was also at that time that he had a relationship with the prince.

    Luo Renshou was able to reach the position of Shangshu in the officialdom. His mind was not bad. The eldest son was close to the prince, and the second son was closer to the prince. No one was guilty. Everyone asked only that they were doing things for the emperor.

    At present, the adult princes are the eldest prince, prince, third prince, and fourth prince. The most likely to get the throne is the prince, but the prince is not very popular with the emperor, because the prince’s biological mother Lin Guifei is the most favored by the sage today. Everything is possible.

    So, Luo Shumo and Shen Mingyun, who were close to the prince, came to find Luo Renshou for anything important?

    Luo Shuyu smiled slightly at Luo Shumo. With sharp eyes, he seemed to ask inadvertently: "Brother, where are you guys from here? Mud is stained on the corners of his clothes."

    When he asked, Shen Mingyun's expression paused slightly, because the familiar system task reminder sounded in his mind at this moment.

    [The host triggers a special hidden side mission: Please stop the wedding of the three princes Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu on August 10 as soon as possible.Task reward: 200 mall coins.】

    The author has something to say: Luo Shuyu: Exciting.
