Chapter 953: Chapter 953 Big Moves
She let out a contrived chuckle, "How could that be? A dowry is the private property of a daughter-in-law; it’s impossible for anyone to covet it."
Luo Qiao spoke with undertones, "It seems Auntie is astute; you must be a good mother-in-law."
Kong Cunlai, who was sitting aside, knew exactly what kind of person his wife was. It made the Lu Family daughter-in-law see right through her, and she had tactfully given a hint, but now was not the time to confront her.
The Lu Family didn’t stay long after settling the matter and soon took their leave to return to the Gu Family.
Once everyone had sat down, Old Master Gu turned to Luo Qiao and her husband, "How did you think of giving Yiting a house as part of her wedding gifts? That must have cost quite a bit of money."
Luo Qiao glanced at Lu Yichen and replied, "You all know that these past few years I have made some money with Yipin Fruits and Vegetables, and Yichen has also invested in some businesses. He always says that what grandma left him was more than what Big Brother and little sister got, and he feels somewhat guilty.
So, we talked it over and decided to buy two properties for little sister and Big Brother. However, the two properties for Big Brother were written in Lu Ran and Lu Hao’s names. We originally planned to give them during their coming-of-age ceremony, but now it seems appropriate to give them earlier.
Both properties for Yiting were written in her name, but today I deliberately mentioned only one in front of the Kong Family. Some things little sister knows in her heart is enough."
Lu Yichen had not expected Luo Qiao to have done so much. They had discussed the things at Yin Tiao Ridge before, but he hadn’t thought she would actually do as they had talked about, and he was completely moved.
Logically, it wouldn’t have made a difference if Big Brother and little sister didn’t share those things since, without Luo Qiao, they wouldn’t have realized the secret of the Jade Pendant, nor would they have been able to find it and successfully remove a small part without leaving a trace.
Although it was negligible compared to what they handed over, when converted to money, it was an astronomical figure. Luo Qiao felt that after all, those were things from grandmother’s maiden family, and the three siblings all had the right to inherit.
They had to express gratitude to feel at ease, but they couldn’t reveal the matter yet, to avoid trouble for themselves.
After listening to Luo Qiao, Lu Yixuan, who had returned to the Gu Family earlier, looked at his brother, "At that time, little sister and I received our shares too, just not as much as yours. We know this, so why would you dwell on it? Besides, you only had a bit more than us—two-tenths more."
Luo Qiao said, "Anyway, if he’s willing, and I have no objections, and since it’s already been handled, you should just accept it with peace of mind. That will put his mind at ease, and you’ll have more at hand. Isn’t that good?"
Master Gu’s face was full of smiles, "Since the two of them have taken care of it, you should accept it. Remember, no matter what happens, you three siblings must support each other and maintain a united and loving bond."
An old hand at life, he knew Luo Qiao wasn’t telling the whole truth. But this child had a really good nature; anyone else would certainly not have done the same.
Wang Xiaoxin called over her son and daughter, "Come, you two, thank your second uncle and second aunt."
The two younger ones had also understood; second uncle and second aunt had bought them each a house. The two stood straight and bowed to Lu Yichen and Luo Qiao, "Thank you, second uncle, second aunt."
After standing up, Lu Hao added, "Second uncle, I will protect my sister in the future, back them up, and will also be filial to you and second aunt."
These words touched all the adults. Luo Qiao said cheerfully, "Well then, second aunt will be waiting."
Lu Yiting’s eyes welled with tears, "Big Brother, sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, thank you for doing so much for me, for always thinking of me in everything."
Her thanks came from the heart; it was not just because her second brother and second sister-in-law had bought her a house, but something she had held back for a long time. When their mother had passed away, neither of her brothers had asked for anything, leaving it all to her.
Back then, there was no second sister-in-law, yet her sister-in-law had not objected to her brothers’ decision. Now her second sister-in-law did the same, to ease her second brother’s conscience, even buying houses for both her and Big Brother — and not just one, but two each.
Wang Xiaoxin knew why her sister-in-law spoke like this and patted Lu Yiting, "Silly girl, your sister-in-law hasn’t done much; if you’re going to thank anyone, thank your second sister-in-law."
At that moment, Lu Yiting said, "I should thank both. Big Brother and second brother left all of mom’s things to me, and now second brother has shared with me what grandma left behind. You all have been so good to me."
Then, Lu Hao approached, "Auntie, don’t cry. Or I’ll feel like crying too. You’re the little sister; it’s our parents’ and second uncle and second aunt’s duty to be good to you. When my sister, my younger sisters, and I are grown up, we’ll also be good to you."
At her nephew’s words, Lu Yiting cried even harder.
Once Lu Yiting had stopped crying, "Hao Hao, thank you."
Lu Hao lifted his chin, "You girls are so troublesome, always crying at the drop of a hat. My parents said, since I’m a boy, I should protect my aunt, my sister, and my two younger sisters. So don’t cry all the time; I don’t know how to comfort you."
