The CEO's Private Baby
Wan Qing paused and said, "Uncle, Mom has passed away. Do you want to collect her things? It's probably unlucky for you to live here like this."
Du Yuanming said: "It's not auspicious or unlucky, it's just that the person is gone but the things are still there, which makes people sad."
He had originally thought of asking Wanqing to count the relics, and now that he had come to this point, he did not delay any longer and immediately took her upstairs.
Wanqing had only been to his and Xu Kewei's bedroom two or three times, and she still felt uncomfortable when she saw it now. She sighed and said to Du Yuanming, "I've only been to this room two or three times, and when I think of how mom looked back then... I feel so uncomfortable. Uncle has lived with mom for so long, so he must be even more upset, right?"
Du Yuanming sighed and touched the mirror on the dressing table: "Isn't it? I can't bear to put it away, but I can't sleep looking at it, and... after all, it's her personal property. Now that she's gone, I can only leave it to you."
"Mom doesn't have anything valuable..." Wanqing said, "It's just that I don't want to throw it away casually."
After saying that, she began to pack Xu Kewei's clothes.
Xu Kewei had lived here for more than half a year, and she had almost no old things left, mostly new clothes. Wanqing didn't miss them very much, so she asked the servants to pack them up in boxes and put them in the storage room temporarily.
Throw it away after a while. Du Yuanming might consider her face and might be reluctant to part with it, but Du Qian probably wouldn't keep the dead person's things at home. After a while, she quietly asked the servants to throw it away, so as not to embarrass Du Yuanming...
There were also some jewelry that Xu Kewei wore close to her body. Wanqing thought they were valuable and she couldn't be greedy, so she didn't want them. Combs and other things should be garbage in Du Qian's eyes. Wanqing carefully put them in a box and prepared to take them back to her original residence. That was her house, and as long as it wasn't stolen, she could keep it as long as she wanted.
Du Yuanming saw it, put all the jewelry into a box and handed it to her: "Don't leave this behind."
Wan Qing was stunned, and hesitantly stretched out her hand, opened it and took a look: "These are not mom's..."
"Who said it wasn't?" Du Yuanming remembered something, turned around, opened the safe beside the bed, and took out a box as big as a book. "This is also your mother's. Her things should naturally be left to you. Other things are fine, but these can't be left. I originally told her to give it to her, and she accepted it. How could I hide it from you and keep it for myself?"
Wanqing couldn't help but frown when she heard him speak so seriously, so she decided to take a look first. If it's not expensive, she'll take it. I thought it would be diamonds or gems, but it turned out to be jade.
She didn't know much about jade, but seeing this crystal green, it must be jadeite. In today's society, women ask men to buy diamonds of several carats when they get married, preferably as big as a pigeon egg, so she naturally thought that the most valuable jewelry was diamonds.
However, this set of jadeite, a necklace, a pair of earrings, a pair of bracelets, so many beads, all the same size, the same color, no matter how ignorant she was, she felt that it was not a simple thing, and it would not be cheap. Especially the brilliance that caught her eye, which was much more beautiful than diamonds. She was shocked, stunned for a moment, and suddenly closed the box and pushed it to Du Yuanming: "I can't take it!"
"Keep it. It was originally a wedding gift that Kewei and I prepared for you."
"Is that so?" Wan Qing was reluctant to let go after hearing that. If that was the case, Du Yuanming paid, then the idea must have come from Xu Kewei. Besides, this shouldn't be expensive, right? Wan Qing was a little undecided.
"Keep it for now." Du Yuanming said, "We are all family, we just need to change rooms."
Wan Qing thought about it and agreed. Even if she accepted it temporarily, she would put it in her room. After all, it was a valuable thing, and she would never take it out. As for what would happen in the future, she would have to talk about it later. If they didn't get along well, she would not take anything valuable out of the Du family!
Thinking of this, she didn't feel any psychological pressure and took the jade and other jewelry back to her room.
When she entered the room, she was spotted by Du Qian. Du Qian saw that she was holding a bunch of velvet boxes. She was used to seeing them since she was a child, so she knew without guessing that they were for jewelry.
Du Qian was a little shocked. How much would it cost to put on a few bigger diamonds? And Xu Kewei seemed to be wearing jade, which was more valuable than diamonds!
Du Qian couldn't help it and wanted to go find Du Yuanming to argue - she also knew that without Du Yuanming's permission, Wan Qing couldn't take things privately!
When she walked outside Du Yuanming's room, she saw a servant coming out. She was startled and pulled the servant aside to ask, "What did Ding Wanqing take away?"
The servant was just packing up in the bathroom and didn't hear it clearly, but she secretly glanced at it and told her, "These are the jewelry left by the mistress. The master asked Miss Ding to keep them."
Du Qian asked gloomily, "What kind of jewelry are these?"
"What I took from the dressing table earlier are all things I usually wear, like a few pairs of earrings and necklaces, and probably two bracelets." Xu Kewei is old and not suitable for wearing diamonds, and she is in poor health, so Du Yuanming directly chose jade for her. She usually wears a bracelet at home, and occasionally wears a jade pendant around her neck, which the servants have seen.
Du Qian felt bad. Those two jade bracelets might be worth millions! What if they were top-grade jadeite? Her mother would cry in the underworld!
The servant went on to say, "Later, the master seemed to have taken some more from the safe. Miss Ding didn't want it at first, but later she was eager to accept it!"
The servant curled her lips in disgust. She had originally looked down on Xu Kewei, thinking that you were not as good as me, so why should you be my boss's wife? Later, Xu Kewei loved to cook for herself, and she felt that her credit was taken away, and she was even more unhappy.
Anyway, there was no big grudge, just envy and jealousy, so I couldn't help but complain to Du Qian. She didn't feel sad about her death, but she just felt it was unlucky, so she wanted to clear out everything related to Xu Kewei. But now it's still in the warehouse, and I feel so embarrassed that I can't help but complain again.
When Du Qian heard this, she shouted, "Throw it away! Throw it away! What are you still keeping it for? To summon the spirit?"
She was so angry that her voice rose high, and the servants were startled. Before they could try to dissuade her, Du Yuanming and Wan Qing came out of the room respectively.
The servant was holding Xu Kewei's used toiletries and cosmetics, ready to throw them away. As soon as Du Yuanming saw them, he guessed what they were talking about and asked in a deep voice, "What are you arguing about?"
Du Qian glared at Wan Qing and said indignantly, "I heard that Auntie's clothes are still in the storeroom? She's gone now, it's unlucky to keep those things, just throw them away!"
