Xu Shiqiu did not expect that Xu Yanzhu would be troubled just now because of this matter. He pondered for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked at her: "How can you have such a plan?"

Xu Shiqiu didn't think that his first niece had such a thought out of a sudden.

After all, her uncle's entire family was in the business world, and even his second brother had borrowed the connections of his relatives in the Second Sister-in-law to do business.

If his first niece really wanted to do business, the first thing she would consider would be his father and his uncle's family. Why would she think of him?

The doubt in Xu Shiqiu's heart did not show on his face, but at this time, Xu Yanzhu was also thinking about how to answer Third Uncle's question just now, and she noticed the change in expression on his face.

"Third Uncle, I won't hide this from you. This time, when father comes back, I'm afraid that we have to settle the engagement.

My grandmother also gave me a shop in the coastal town and a shop in Beijing. When my marriage is decided, mother will probably give me two shops as well.

Although the four shops are not many, I still have to learn how to manage my own. "

Xu Yanzhu looked at Xu Shiqiu who had just finished speaking, thought for a while and said directly: "But you should know, right now, I do not have anyone who is loyal enough to me, but Third Uncle is the Third Master of the Xu Family.

Moreover, as far as I know, Third Aunt's cousin was previously a waiter in a restaurant in the town. If Third Aunt and I were to open a shop together and Third Uncle stood behind us with a few more of her trusted aides, the business could still go on.

Xu Yanzhu didn't hide anything from Xu Shiqiu. After finding out that his parents were going to return, Old Madame Xu didn't hide anything from Xu Yanzhu and directly told her that her parents had already arranged a marriage for her.

Xu Yanzhu didn't know how much her mother would give her as a dowry, but her grandmother said that she would give her two shops. On the surface, there was only one shop in the town, one that her grandmother, whose parents did not know, had bought.

Since there was a shop, she should cultivate her own power. However, when she thought about her parents coming back, she was controlled, so she could only rely on Third Uncle.

After Xu Yanzhu mentioned Dong Lei, Xu Shiqiu was moved. When she mentioned about working with his Young Girl, Xu Shiqiu decided to agree.

Just like what his first niece had said, as a Third Young Master of the Xu Family, although he currently did not have an official position and did not have any silver coins, as long as he divided the clan, he could receive a portion of the Xu Family and a portion of his mother's dowry.

Unlike his sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law, his Young Girl did not have that many dowry. Since he was partnering up with his first niece, it was a good thing that he could help his wife get some dowry.

This was indeed a good idea.

After interacting with Xu Shiqiu for the past few days, Xu Yanzhu had become more familiar with himself, the Third Uncle. Seeing his expression, Xu Yanzhu knew that he was moved.

"Third Uncle, you don't have to worry too much about the origin of the goods. Although my mother dotes more on my two younger brothers, I'm still her only daughter after all. If I want to borrow some Jiang Family from the future, I can."

After Xu Yanzhu finished speaking, Xu Shiqiu finally looked at her and nodded: "I agree to this matter, but I need to first go and discuss it with your grandmother. As for the details, wait for me to ask your grandmother first."

Xu Shiqiu was indeed tempted, he had two villas that his father had bought for him in secret, but he did not have any in the shop.

However, Xu Shiqiu knew that his mother and sister had many stores in their hands, and these two women had to pamper him even more.

Xu Yanzhu was also clear about her Third Uncle's position in the Xu Family, that was why she had such a thought. After hearing what he had to say, she immediately revealed a smile, bowed, and immediately left the Shihuan Courtyard.

After Xu Yanzhu left, Xu Shiqiu did not delay any longer. Although it was inconvenient for Dong Shu to come here with a red body, it was not impossible for him to bring her to see her mother secretly.

Half an hour later, Old Madame Xu saw her third son and her third daughter-in-law who had suddenly appeared in her courtyard.

She really did not expect that her third son would come looking for her here.

Although she was excited, Old Madame Xu still managed to stabilize her body. She first sized up Dong Shu, whose complexion was getting better, and then looked at Xu Shiqiu: "Shiqiu, how are you going to get here?" Furthermore, it seemed like she had secretly snuck in.

Although Old Madame Xu was just an ordinary old lady, she had an extraordinary background and was the wife of General Xu for many years.

As a result, even though she was puzzled, she couldn't show it on her face.

Xu Shiqiu also did not make the Old Madame Xu wait much longer. He had originally come here secretly with Dong Shu, afraid that there would be a death loyalty left behind by his big brother and second brother.

He wasn't planning on scheming against his big brother and second brother, but since the three of them were now married, he naturally had to be on guard against them.

Thinking up to here, Xu Shiqiu did not delay any further, and directly led Dong Shu into the house. He first supported Dong Shu, who was not in a good position, and bowed to her mother, then arranged for Dong Shu to sit at the side, and then looked at Old Madame Xu as he prepared to speak.

When Old Madame Xu saw Xu Shiqiu's attitude, she knew that Xu Shiqiu had something important to discuss with him.

She did not bother about her third daughter-in-law who was sitting by the side, and directly nodded to the servant beside her who had served her for dozens of years. Seeing her walk out to guard the door, she signaled Xu Shiqiu to speak.

"Mom, I've come to find you today because I have something that I want to ask you." Xu Shiqiu and his mother would never conceal what was in his mind. Seeing that his mother was attracted by his words, he quickly continued, "Now that our son is married, how can your son work for Eldest Sister-in-Law at her father's place?

But Madame Dong's body had already been nurtured, so his son had to raise a child in the future. So, your son wants to ask, if we split the family income, how much of the property would your son get? "

Although he had lost his manager nine years ago in that chaos, his assets were still there.

Although the emperor had said that no one from the Xu Family was allowed to be an official in the capital city for ten years, his eldest brother still borrowed his eldest sister-in-law's father's power to become a sixth grade official in a city not far from the capital city.

Although a sixth rank official was not that high, anyone with a discerning eye would know that as long as ten years passed, the old man's Xu Family would rise greatly.

Since he was young, his second brother had never been pleased with literature nor with martial arts. He had also proposed to marry the Second Sister-in-law himself, and now that he was married to the Second Sister-in-law's mother, his business was flourishing like the wind and water.

There was only him, a civil servant, he couldn't do it, but a military general …

Thinking of this, Xu Shiqiu also sighed in his heart.

I wonder if His Majesty can safely hand over the military authority to the Xu Family people?

Old Madame Xu had been looking at Xu Shiqiu the entire time, so she had naturally heard everything Xu Shiqiu said, and she understood the things that he did not say from the look on his face.

Thinking about it, Old Madame Xu also felt that her third son was pitiful.

However, she had already thought about splitting the family.

"Regarding the branch family affairs, according to the rules, your elder brother is the eldest son, so he could have been given sixty or seventy percent of the family property. "However, six years ago, when their family left this place, both of them promised me that they would share the family property equally with your two younger brothers."

Old Madame Xu's expression was normal, but hearing her words, Xu Shiqiu's heart was in shock.

He really did not think that the price that Big Brother and Big Sis had to pay in order to bring his entire family out of the Xiahe Village would actually be thirty percent of the Xu Family's property.

Even though he didn't really care about these things for all these years, he understood that since his father had fought in the battlefield for so many years, there was no way that his Xu Family would lack any wealth.

Furthermore, Xu Shiqiu thought of another thing. When second brother left the Xiahe Village with the Second Sister-in-law, he must have paid a heavy price as well.

Sure enough, when he thought of this, his mother spoke again.

"As for your second brother, hmph!" Ever since he married the Madame Jiang, our Xu Family had an accident and he almost became the son of Jiang Family. At that time, when their family left, they even said that they wanted Yanzhu to stay behind with me.

Do you think I can't see what Madame Jiang is thinking? She wished that she had never given birth to Yanzhu. If not for your father liking Yanzhu, she would have thrown away this eldest daughter of hers who would have made it difficult for her to give birth!

But they also agreed to one condition of mine. "

Although Old Madame Xu liked her grandson more, she liked her own granddaughter as well.

Furthermore, Xu Yanzhu was almost by her side, so she naturally liked her more.

When she thought about how her own Yanzhu actually had such a mother, she became flustered and angry in her heart.

The thing that made her the most angry was her second daughter-in-law's pitying tone and attitude when she spoke of her third son.

No matter how bad her son was, he wasn't someone a business girl could look down upon!

"However, in order to leave the Xiahe Village back then, your second brother promised to give me twenty percent of the profits earned in these seven years. I will leave 10% for you, and the other 10% will be Yanzhu's dowry.

Your big brother and second brother have one each, and your sister has already taken one of them with her when she first married. The remaining three, two of them will be given to you first, and the remaining one will be given to you after I go there. "

Old Madame Xu was biased, she knew that her hateful husband had already set up two extremely good manors outside the capital for his third son, but she still decided to leave half of her private house to his third son.

As for why not all of them, it was naturally to fill in the mouths of his eldest and second daughter-in-law.

However, there were quite a few things in her private room. Some of them seemed expensive, but they were not. Some of them looked ordinary, but were actually valuable.

She had already thought of what she would leave for her third son. In addition to that, she also prepared something else.

Thinking about it, Old Madame Xu got up from her chair and walked into the inner room. She then took out a box from nowhere.

"There are two villages in Seaside County. One is in the coastal town, and the other is farther away. There are four other shops that your big brother and second brother do not know, all located in the capital.

All these years, your sister has taken care of them, and the benefits will go directly to your sister. When we return to the capital next year, your sister will naturally give her to you. "

In Old Madame Xu's heart, the person she doted on the most was her third son, and the person she pitied the most was her granddaughter. She could be at ease with her only daughter who had not been by his side for so many years.

Xu Shiqiu came to find his mother today naturally because he had already guessed that his mother would secretly give him a portion of good stuff.

But he didn't expect that his mother would give him so much.

After all, his first niece had accompanied his mother for so many years, yet she could only fish up two stores.

Thinking about that, Xu Shiqiu looked at his mother and said: Mother, how about you follow your son and live in the branch family from now on? When Madame Dong has children in the future, you can watch them play around. "

Xu Shiqiu was naturally speaking from the bottom of his heart. He knew that after so many years, if not for his parents and elder sister protecting him, his big and second brother would have already disliked this little brother who brought bad luck upon himself.

Thinking about the day nine years ago, when his Xu Family met with mishap, when his brother and second brother looked at him with such a gaze, Xu Shiqiu felt his heart spasming painfully.

He didn't want it to happen either. Why would he think that something would happen to his Xu Family? Where's your life?
