Chapter 690 Becoming a Rich Woman on the Spot
Not to mention Fubao, everyone in the room was stunned. Wasn't this fellow family member too arrogant?
But since they have money, they can't control what they want to do. But Old Mrs. Wan is happy.
If the emperor of Yue was replaced, they wouldn't have to worry about Fubao being captured again.
Tongrui pulled Fubao to her side and held him on her lap.
"My dear, remember that behind you is not only your current Wan family, but also our Tong family. If anyone makes you uncomfortable in the future, just tell your aunt. We must swallow our anger and fight back, understand?"
Tong Yan shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Arui, Fubao is still young, don't teach her these things."
"Sister, you have become what you are now because you never tell your family about anything. If you had told your family about your situation earlier, father would have found a way to get you out of the palace. Maybe we would have found Fubao and you and your daughter would have been reunited. So tolerance does not necessarily bring you the result you want."
Tong Yan was speechless after hearing her sister's words. She was indeed restricted in the palace.
Now, every breath she takes smells of freedom. She likes her current life very much. It is carefree, without any constraints, without any intrigue, and with her daughter by her side.
Fubao looked down at the deeds one by one and suddenly found a very familiar name.
"This...Aunt, did you buy this Qinxiang Garden in Texas?"
Fubao took out the land deed and asked Tongrui to confirm it.
Tong Rui took it, glanced at it casually, and nodded, "Yes, this is just one of them. I have opened several gardens in other places that are bigger than this one. Oh, by the way, you have also opened one in Beijing recently. It is located in the suburbs of Beijing and occupies a larger area than the ones you have. It's just that the construction period is slow. It is estimated that it will be completed in May next year. However, that garden is also under your name."
Fubao simply admires her aunt so much.
"Aunt, isn't your gift a bit too big? How much does a garden in the capital cost?"
"Not much, maybe one million taels."
Tong Rui spoke in a light tone, as if she was talking about something insignificant.
Mrs. Wan and Mrs. Wan almost slipped off the stool. Even the once wealthy Cui couldn't hold it anymore. She looked at Tong Rui in surprise. What was the origin of the Tong family? One million taels was a lot of money for the Jia family during their heyday. However, the Tong family used one million taels to build a garden. This...
Cui lowered her head, thinking about her own thoughts.
After hearing this, Fubao immediately felt that the garden he had visited in Texas before was probably dwarfed by this one in the suburbs of Beijing.
"I've been to Qinxiang Garden. It's a really beautiful garden. I went there with my older brother, and he found his soulmate in the garden. To be honest, my aunt's garden is the best built." Fubao said with a smile, hugging Tongrui's neck.
Tongrui reached out and touched Fubao's forehead.
"You're a little smart guy, but the garden is now under your name, and all the income is yours. If you have time to go to Texas, go to the garden again, check the account book, and collect the money. Since the opening of the garden, I saw a letter from the manager saying that the income is about 5,000 taels of silver every day, and they also held a meeting at the end of the year, so the income should reach a new high. My preliminary estimate is that it should be more than one million taels, which is the New Year's money that your aunt gave you."
Fubao didn't expect that happiness would come so suddenly. She didn't do anything, but overnight she became a wealthy woman with houses all over Da Qi and a million taels of silver in her hands.
"Aunt, are you the God of Wealth who has descended to earth?"
Fubao looked at Tongrui with starry eyes, which made Tongrui laugh out loud.
"You little rascal, that's enough. I have something to do in the capital. Now that I see you and your daughter are safe, I feel relieved. I'm leaving now. If you encounter any problems, you can use this jade token to find someone. Your mother knows the scope of our family's business. Let her tell you slowly."
After Tongrui finished speaking, she put Fubao down and stood up.
Old Mrs. Wan also stood up quickly. In less than half an hour, she heard about wealth that she had never dared to dream of in her entire life.
At this time, she had a new understanding of the Tong family and had a clearer plan for Fubao's future in her mind. It turned out that Fubao was extremely rich when he was born. From Old Lady Wan's point of view, she felt that the identity of a princess was an insult to their Fubao.
This princess is a shackle, and it is not as good as being the granddaughter of the same family.
"Madam Tong, it's already the end of the year. It's a long journey for you to go to the capital. Why don't you spend the New Year at our house?"
"Thank you for your kindness, old lady, but I have urgent business and need to rush to the capital as soon as possible. I will come back to bother you after I finish my business.
My sister has been in your house for a long time. I brought you some gifts as a thank you. Thank you for taking care of Fubao all these years. She is growing up well. I can see that she is very happy in your home. "
Tong Rui waved her hand and the people outside immediately filed in.
Soon, the room was filled with all kinds of gifts.
"Madam Tong, you are too polite. Fubao has a destiny with our family. As you know, Fubao has a special status. Over the years, it is not us who have been taking care of her. Instead, she has helped the family a lot. If it were not for Fubao, our family might have died on the way of exile. How could we have the good life today? If we have to thank someone, we should thank Fubao."
Old Mrs. Wan said sincerely.
She took a look at the gifts Tong Rui had sent. Without opening them, she knew that each one must be very expensive. The dozen or so pieces of cloth on the top were brightly colored, with patterns and styles she had never seen before, not to mention the materials. Even in the dim light in the room, they were glowing. She wondered what was mixed in them, but they must be worth a lot of money.
In Da Qi, the more fancy the cloth was, the more expensive it was. Solid colors like black, white and gray were relatively cheaper, and no one in poor families could afford colorful clothes.
Tong Rui looked at Fu Bao and smiled, "Madam, no matter what, it was you who saved Fu Bao's life. The friendship between us cannot be compared with these material things. Don't you agree?"
Old Lady Wan also smiled and nodded, "It's what Madam Tong said, friendship is the most important."
"Then, old lady, I'll take my leave. We'll see you later."
Madam Wan sent Tong Rui to the gate. Seeing three carriages outside, Tong Yan felt reluctant to let her go.
"Sister, are you taking these people with you when you go out?"
Tong Rui saw her sister's reluctant expression and walked forward to hold her hands.
"Sister, how could that be possible? I didn't want to disturb the neighbors, so I didn't let Anan and the others into the village. They are all waiting outside the village. I think the village has a strong sense of defense. It's so cold today, and there are patrols at the entrance of the village. It took me a lot of effort to get in. I feel relieved that you are here."
Tong Rui couldn't help but smile when she thought about the time she was interrogated when she first entered the village.
"That's true. When I first came here, I was interrogated many times before I was let in." Tong Yan said with a smile.
"Sister, I'll be here to pick you up soon after I finish my work. Just rest here and give me two years. I'll make sure you and Fubao don't have to hide away from each other anymore."
Tong Rui hugged Tong Yan gently, then turned around and stepped into the carriage.
Tongyan's eyes were red. Fubao felt A'niang's emotions and quickly stepped forward to hold Tongyan's hand.
"Mother, you still have me."
Tong Yan bent down and picked up Fubao. They watched the carriage slowly leave the village until it disappeared. It came and went so quickly.
