After he said those few words, Xu Keke knew that he understood what she meant.

After confirming at the Sun family home that Sun Siyuan was indeed feigning ignorance, just as she had suspected, Xu Keke guessed that the Taoist priest and Sun Siyuan probably had some connection. Today, upon hearing the rumors about her and Sun Siyuan, and recalling the second concubine's reminder, she guessed that Lin Meijuan must have gotten involved with the third wife of the Sun family again.

Since the person has already been seen off, and is still trying to cause trouble for herself, then let Sun Siyuan and this Taoist priest deal with this Third Madam Sun.

It's likely that Sun Siyuan harbored resentment towards his third wife, Sun, who had always tried to harm him.

Xu Keke was delighted to know that the man had understood her. She had originally planned that if the Taoist priest hadn't understood, she would have had to ask Yan Shuo's men to relay her message.

This time, Xu Keke witnessed firsthand Madam Du's competence, which was more decisive and swift than Du Bingtian's.

Not long after the Taoist priest left, the third concubine was taken away by car.

When she left, she took nothing with her except a moon-white cheongsam. Xu Keke wondered if it was just her imagination, but the Third Concubine's figure didn't seem as curvaceous as when she first arrived. Perhaps from being imprisoned for so long, she looked dehydrated and somewhat gaunt.

As the third concubine was leaving, she glared at Xu Keke with a sinister look. Xu Keke simply smiled brightly at her, not caring at all.

In the afternoon, Yan Shuo came to the Du family again in person. This made Xu Keke suspect that the young marshal didn't usually have any important matters to attend to.

"I was afraid they wouldn't be able to explain it clearly, so I came in person." Seeing the shock in Xu Keke's eyes, Yan Shuo explained for himself.

"I asked the Jin family. When they first started the factory with the foreigners, they encountered some problems with funding and connections. They contacted your mother through a friend."

Your mother threw away her dowry. She also helped the Jin family make some connections.

Then suddenly your mother approached the Jin family, wanting to withdraw all the funds. The Jin family naturally refused, as that would cause problems for their business. But your mother was unsympathetic and stubbornly insisted on getting all the funds back.

The Jin family had no choice but to scrape together money from all over the place.

Unexpectedly, your mother suddenly passed away at this time.

The Jin family then approached your grandmother. After several discussions, it was finally decided that a small portion of the money your mother had invested in the Jin family would be returned to the Du family first. The remaining profits would be given to your father annually.

The Jin family felt that since you were your mother's only child, they discussed with your grandmother the possibility of finding a younger member of the clan to take care of you for life. Of course, that was their excuse. I suspect they also intended to keep your mother's money with the Jin family.

As for what happened later, it was because over the past ten years, the Jin family had been dealing with your father and they discovered that he seemed to be unaware of many things. In addition, the different branches of the Jin family each had their own agendas, and gradually they put the marriage agreement aside.

They didn't expect that when they were delivering the bonus to your father, he would suddenly bring up the idea of ​​a marriage alliance with the Jin family. The Jin family had no choice but to agree.

Xu Keke laughed and said, "Where did the Du family get so much money? The Du family only has an ancestral home in the countryside; they don't even own any farmland. Du Bingtian is just a deputy bureau chief; he doesn't have any power to make money. How can they live such a luxurious life?"

It turned out that all this money was the original owner's mother's dowry.
