The words "everywhere" made Zhou Jingmao stunned for a moment.
He had everything he wanted since he was a child, and he had never experienced this kind of sorrow. It seemed... very miserable.
But Xiao Cunyu was so calm and normal when he said this that he felt a chill like early winter in his heart.
"Am I a little ungrateful for what I have?" Zhou Jingmao stared for a while and asked a little embarrassedly.
He scratched his head, as if repenting.
But Xiao Cunyu glanced at him sideways and said, "Yes, but will you change?"
"Of course not. This blessing was given to me by my father. If others don't have it, it's because they don't have a good father!" Zhou Jingmao said hurriedly.
Change? He wants to play for a few more years!
"That's right, I think so too." Xiao Cunyu nodded solemnly. "If young masters like us from aristocratic families are born without the knowledge of enjoying life, how many lifetimes will it take us to spend all our ancestors' wealth? There is only so much wealth in the world. If we take more, others will have less. If we spend quickly, it will also give others the opportunity to become richer, don't you think?"
“…” Zhou Jingmao’s mouth twitched violently.
yes?
"No! You can't have such thoughts. You should protect the foundation laid by our ancestors!" Zhou Jingmao was anxious.
This guy is even more unreliable than him!
"That's why you are not magnanimous enough. You have enjoyed it for so many years, and you still want your children, grandchildren and generations to come to enjoy it? I am different. Once the wealth passes through my hands, I can't keep even a single penny. This is for the benefit of the people!" Xiao Cunyu waved his hand, and he looked like someone who was in charge of the country.
It's all bullshit.
But Zhou Jingmao's eyes were wide open.
Just as I was about to open my mouth to persuade him a few more times, a weak voice suddenly came from the side.
"Seventh cousin?" Dong Qiaoxin had just come out of the Taoist temple when she saw Xiao Cunyu looking like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.
Xiao Cunyu's arm stiffened, and he turned around, his expression solemn: "Did you recognize the wrong person?"
She ran away from home, so where did her cousin come from?
"My cousin really loves to joke." Dong Qiaoxin said, and the next moment, she hid the bracelet on her wrist into her sleeve.
After Xiao Cunyu pointed out what she had concealed that day, she felt very uneasy. She also thought about the details of that year and finally came to only one conclusion...
Back then, she stuffed the two concubines into a box. Later, her mother came, killed the concubines, and locked them in the box.
This also explains why... there were two concubines' bracelets among my mother's belongings.
Her mother was born a concubine, and she did not have a large dowry when she got married. However, she came from a prominent family and her family was quite wealthy. However, her father had drained all of it over the years, leaving her without a decent dowry.
Otherwise, she would not have kept and hidden Shuang Niang's bracelet like a treasure.
This bracelet should have been thrown away, but she couldn't bear to do it...
So I came to this Taoist temple to worship the gods and get rid of bad luck.
"Do you know each other?" Zhou Jingmao hurried over. "Whose family are you from? What is your relationship with him?"
Dong Qiaoxin was startled.
I don't know where this black guy came from. He is so rude. How could he be so close to her?!
"Cousin, I have handled the family affairs according to your wishes. I hope you won't tell others...about the old things. If you do that, it will ruin the rest of my life. Then I can only live out the rest of my life in seclusion. If that happens, you will be worried, right?" Dong Qiaoxin looked at him nervously.
She doesn't like the feeling of being controlled.
Especially when she was held hostage by an unreliable playboy like Xiao Cunyu, it was like a pair of hands strangling her throat, making it difficult for her to breathe.
