Uncle Quan and Aunt Quan had already prepared a guest room and hot water for the three Wei brothers, and when the two brothers went to freshen up and rest, Cen Hongmian and Cen Xiyan finally had a chance to talk alone.

Cen Hongmian looked at Cen Xiyan, he wanted to speak and stopped, he really had too many questions in his heart, but he didn't know where to start for a while, or rather, he couldn't open his mouth a little.

Cen Xiyan has been stocked in this town for ten years, except for some supplies sent by the Cen family every year, she really hasn't had any other protection from the Cen family, and now to inquire about her life over the years seems too deliberate and too late.

Cen Xiyan saw Cen Hongmian's expression, and knew what he was thinking, so he took the initiative to speak: "Four years ago, when my father came to see me, he handed over some of my mother's dowry to me. After a pause, Cen Xiyan looked at Cen Hongmian and asked with a smile: "Third brother won't think I'm too philistine, right?" ”

This statement is not a lie, a few years Cen Biao came to pass by Qingyuan Town, by the way to visit his daughter, Cen Xiyan intentionally or unintentionally asked her some questions about her physical mother, asked her who else is in her mother's mother's family, what things can be left and other topics, maybe Cen Biao feels that she owes this sixth daughter over the years, maybe she also feels that she is in this small place in Qingyuan Town, life is too hard, not long after he left, he sent someone to send a few shops and some field contracts, as well as a few pieces of jewelry, Said that it was something that her mother had left her and asked her to keep it herself.

In fact, Cen Xiyan brought up this topic, and it also meant this, Cen Biao's transparency made her very happy, not that she cared about her mother's property, but that she intended to make Yuanyinmen's business bigger at that time, and when she returned to Cen 's house in the future, it was inevitable that flaws would be revealed in the details of the money, and with the good excuse of her mother's dowry, it would not make people suspicious.

Therefore, Cen Hongmian's remarks now are actually an excuse that she has prepared a long time ago, which is prepared.

Did the father give Aunt Gu's dowry to the sixth sister? So that's the case, it seems that although my father sent the sixth sister to Qingyuan Town and stayed for ten years, in fact, I didn't completely miss the sixth sister in my heart. When Cen Hongmian heard Cen Xiyan's words, he didn't have any doubts in his heart, and sighed secretly in his heart, feeling more and more that the sixth sister was not easy, Aunt Gu's dowry, his father gave the sixth sister in advance, and it was also to save a dowry for her, right? After all, the biological mother of the sixth sister is no longer alive, she is a concubine, and I am afraid that no one will pay attention to the issue of dowry in the future.

It's just that to Cen Hongmian's surprise, Cen Xiyan would take care of those shops himself? And it seems that the talent for business is not bad? It's a good thing that his daughter's family will plan for herself, but after all, business is a cheap business, so he couldn't help but remind, "When I go back to the capital in the future, the sixth sister will still hand over those shops to the shopkeeper to take care of them, don't let yourself work too hard, have time, get along with the sisters at home more, enhance the relationship, or occasionally go to enjoy flowers and poems with the nobles, and make a few friends." ”

Cen Hongmian said it euphemistically, how could Cen Xiyan not hear what he meant? She was a little disapproving, as a modern soul, of course she couldn't think that business was lowly like the ancients, and she was not interested in having fun with those sisters and the nobles of the capital, she just hoped that they wouldn't bother her, thank God.

"I see, third brother." Cen Xiyan said a perfunctory sentence, immediately changed the topic, and asked, "When is the third brother going to leave for Beijing?" ”
