Chapter 2653 - 2653 Dowry

2653 Dowry

By investigating from the source, I am sure I will definitely find the truth and identify the culprit who caused her death.

Little Young Lady, follow me. Chenshang nodded and then turned around, leading Qiao Mu into the two-story building. They climbed to the second floor, and she opened the door to a room.

Your mother lived here in the past.

The room was furnished simply. It could be seen that Long Chuyun wasnt too particular about things.

After so many years, the room was still clean and free from dust. It was obvious how diligently Chenshang cleaned it.

Little Young Lady, sit. Chenshang invited Qiao Mu to sit. She picked up a finely crafted rosewood box with exquisite woodwork from the dressing table. She brought it to Qiao Mu.

After pus.h.i.+ng it to Qiao Mus side, Chenshang sighed and explained, Your mother left behind these things. Please keep them well, Little Young Lady.

Qiao Mu opened the box. She was bedazzled by the box full of pearls, jade, and jewelry.

There was a double layer in the box. Qiao Mu opened it and saw a dowry inventory.

After reading through it quickly, Qiao Mu looked up at Chenshang. These things all belong to Mother?

Your mother left all these behind for you as your dowry in the future.

Including this b.u.t.terfly Pavilion, Listless Pavilion, and the like, these are actually all my mothers properties?

Mhm. Chenshang opened the last double layer in the box and took out a stack of land and field deeds. She placed them in Qiao Mus hands.

The master came several years ago to take them, but I didnt give them to him. Chenshang scoffed, The master got hostile with me, but even I, a blind old woman, will protect my ladys property even if I have to lay down my life.

Your eye? Qiao Mus was startled, and she curled her fingers.

That was not because of him. The master was not the one who blinded my eye. Chenshang shook her head. Do not worry, Little Young Lady. With the scarlet fire-spitting tiger here, I did not suffer the short end of the stick. I got wounded, and so did the master. Afterwards, he even sealed off the path here and designated Wind Chasing Court as the Mu Clans forbidden grounds, but that was just as well. This way, a lot less people came to jabber. Chenshang sn.i.g.g.e.red, But even though we have the building and land deeds in our hands, the Mu Clans people are managing those shops and manors now.

Qiao Mu nodded. Its fine, well take it slow. If its mine, I will not accept anything less.

Chenshangs eye couldnt help but brighten when she saw the little young ladys resolute att.i.tude.

Even though this meeting was her only interaction with the little young lady, for some reason, she felt that the little young lady would accomplish what she said.

After coming to the Divine Province, has Little Young Lady made contact with the imperial capitals Long Clan?

Qiao Mu shook her head. It was Eunuch Chen who went to request compensation from the Long Clan. This did not require her to make an appearance personally.

A cold glint flashed past Chenshangs eyes. Little Young Lady, you do not need to hold back with the Long Clans people if you encounter them in the future.

The Long Clan was also behind the reason your mother left the Mu Clan back then.

Qiao Mu was confused. The Long Clan isnt Mothers maiden family?

What maiden family is that? The Divine Province imperial capitals Long Clan is but a tiny branch family. Their bloodline is already very far removed from the main familys bloodline. Contempt flitted past Chenshangs eyes.

Qiao Mu blinked. Then my moms maiden family is?

The w.a.n.gchuan Sea. Chenshangs eye showed longing. Our home is in the w.a.n.gchuan Sea.
