As soon as Xu Heming returned to the mansion, his son dragged him to the storeroom that was originally filled with Li Zhiwei's dowry.
"Father, what did you see?" Little Xu Qingshi asked, hands on his hips, looking at Xu Heming.
"What?" Xu Heming looked at Xu Qingshi with a puzzled expression, wondering what his son was up to this time.
“This place used to be full of them!” Xu Qingshi thought to himself, no wonder his father still doesn’t have a woman.
With such a stupid brain, what woman could possibly be interested in him?
Luckily, he was observant and managed to bring a woman back with him.
Unfortunately, she became penniless shortly after marrying her father.
Thinking about how his mother died after marrying his father, and how now that unfortunate Li Zhiwei has married his father and immediately become penniless, it seems that his father is truly destined to bring misfortune upon his wife.
"Oh." Xu Heming nodded without saying anything.
He knew about this; wasn't Li Zhiwei's dowry donated to the imperial court?
However, he did not expect Lord Tang to act so quickly.
"Father, don't you have anything to say?" Xu Qingshi looked up at his father.
"It's alright, Father knows about this." Xu Heming thought Xu Qingshi just wanted to tell him that Tang Xiuyong had come to move things.
"Father, did you bring misfortune upon your son that day?" Xu Qingshi took a few steps back and asked cautiously.
"???" Xu Heming was full of questions. Ke Zi?
What's the meaning?
“Father, look, that stepmother only married you for one day and she’s already a poor wretch. My mother married you, and now she’s gone.” Xu Qingshi saw that his father didn’t understand, and after thinking for a moment, he realized they were father and son, so he spoke directly.
Xu Heming was speechless upon hearing this; he had no way to refute it.
However, Li Zhiwei's dowry had nothing to do with him.
As for Zhou, his death was somewhat related to her.
After all, she lost her life to bear children for him.
"Don't talk nonsense," Xu Heming said with a sigh.
“I didn’t say anything wrong.” Xu Qingshi said with some dissatisfaction, seeing his father’s expression and his refusal to admit it.
“Li’s dowry was donated to the court voluntarily by her, not because of me.” For some reason, Xu Heming was quite bothered by this, since it was because of his own actions.
"Father, you should hurry and tell my stepmother that I've left her two things." Xu Qingshi looked at Xu Heming with a smug expression and pointed to the room behind him.
"What?" Xu Heming was stunned, not expecting that this little brat would actually leave something behind.
However, considering that Li Zhiwei had promised to give these things to the court, if she really didn't, the emperor might blame her.
Xu Heming quickly went to check the things in the room.
We mustn't let this child ruin things.
When Xu Heming saw the longevity coffin and the canopy bed in the room, he first breathed a sigh of relief. Then, seeing that they were made of the finest golden nanmu wood, he gave the ignorant child a disapproving look.
That's really going to cause him trouble.
"Qingsong, go and fetch 20,000 taels of silver notes." Xu Heming couldn't let the Emperor think that he had broken his promise. He would just consider these notes as something he had bought for Li Zhiwei.
"Father, what do you need so much silver for?" Xu Qingshi asked with a frown. He knew that he usually only had about a hundred taels of silver, so these ten thousand taels of silver notes must be a lot, right?
"Mo Yu, take the young master back to Liangqi Courtyard!" Xu Heming took a deep breath, not wanting to deal with this troublesome thing.
