When the masters of the Lu family went out, they saw strangers coming and going in their home. Lu Zhengping asked angrily, "Who are you? Why are you here in my house?"

One of them explained, "Sir Lu, we are servants of the General's Mansion. We are here on the General's orders to move Miss Yan's dowry."

"Dowry? What dowry?" Chen Mei'e was stunned. She knew better than anyone that she had not prepared any dowry for Yan Wanwan.

"They are the flowers and plants in Miss Yan's yard."

After saying that, the man began to direct everyone to move the things.

Chen Mei'e and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. "How can she have a yard? Isn't it just a wasteland?"

"not good!"

Lu Zhengping's expression suddenly changed, and he ran towards the wasteland.

At this time, the wasteland was no longer blocked by poisonous vines, and the once flat ground had become bumpy. Every servant in the general's mansion was carrying a beautiful flower in his hands.

"Stop! Who told you to dig?"

As soon as Lu Zhengping arrived, he saw a scene that made him grit his teeth.

He saw the servants digging with hoes, and some areas had been dug to half a meter deep. He rushed forward frantically to stop them and asked all the digging to stop.

Yan Wanwan came out and saw him in a hysterical state, "Minister Lu, what are you doing?"

"You asked them to dig it?"

"Yes! I planted these flowers and plants, so it's understandable that I let them take them away!"

"No, no one can touch this land. Plant it all back."

Yan Wanwan looked at him in shock, "Minister Lu, are you sure you want to replant those poisonous vines?"

Lu Zhengping was speechless. He said angrily, "In short, we can't move."

Seeing that he was having trouble speaking out, Yan Wanwan smiled insincerely, "Okay, let's do as Minister Lu said, everyone should use the pull."

After changing their method, they moved faster and moved most of the flowers and plants in half an hour.

Chen Mei'e stepped forward and advised, "Master, I'll be the only one watching over here. Please go and have your meal!"

"No, I want to watch it myself."

A few people just thought that Lu Zhengping was irritated by Yan Wanwan's behavior and didn't say much.

He returned exhausted only after the people from the General's Mansion had left. He immediately made arrangements: "Switch her to the best courtyard right away. Don't let her live there any longer."

The expressions of several people, including Lu Wanru, turned ugly in an instant.

"Master, it's only a few days anyway. It's very troublesome to keep changing it like this."

"Women's opinions," Lu Zhengping scolded. "When she gets married, do you want her to leave through there? Are you worried that the Shangshu Mansion hasn't been laughed at enough?"

Chen Mei'e was stunned for a moment, and finally came to her senses. Fortunately, he reminded her, otherwise if Yan Wanwan really got married from this shabby courtyard, the backbone of the Shangshu Mansion would be broken.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

It’s just that she didn’t follow Lu Zhengping’s requirements completely, and she still got the best courtyard. Does she deserve it?

I randomly found a small courtyard in a corner and asked someone to tell Yan Wanwan to move there today.

But after a while, the servant came to report that Yan Wanwan refused to move.

"Why doesn't she move? Does it mean I have to go and beg her myself?"

"Mom, I guess my sister doesn't like that yard. Why don't I give my yard to her? It should have belonged to her anyway. I stole it from her."

Lu Wanru lowered her head deeply, and her words revealed loneliness and helplessness, which made people feel distressed.

Chen Mei'e hugged her and comforted her softly: "Wanru, don't think too much. You don't owe her anything. It was mother who brought you here that day. It was mother who wanted you to be a lady in the Shangshu Mansion."

"Mom, you are so good to me."

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried, it was so touching.

"But what about my sister...?"

Chen Mei'e said impatiently, "Then give her the yard next to the master. It's the best yard in the mansion. I don't believe she won't move."

Lu Wanru bit her lip tightly. She had set her eyes on that courtyard a long time ago, but her mother hadn't given it to her even after begging her for a long time. Now she had simply given it to that village woman Yan Wanwan? How could she not be filled with hatred?

But her idea was good, and the servants soon came to report again, but Yan Wanwan still refused to move.

Chen Mei'e was immediately enraged. "You've done this once, twice, but not three times. Are you giving her face?"

The servant said tremblingly, "The eldest lady said that there is nothing in the yard, and asked you to prepare everything before she moves."

Chen Mei'e sneered sarcastically, "I thought she was so strong-willed, but I didn't expect she was just begging for some vulgar things in a roundabout way."

She ordered, "Go and move those old things in the warehouse to the yard, and tell her that if she doesn't want to move them today, then she doesn't have to move them."

Fortunately, nothing went wrong this time. After the new yard was decorated, Yan Wanwan moved in neatly.

That night, Lu Zhengping brought several confidants to a desolate wasteland and found several locations.

"Dig from here."

The confidants dug for a long time but found nothing.

"My lord, there's nothing down there."

Lu Zhengping was horrified, "Impossible."

He grabbed the shovel and started digging himself, but the pit was a meter deep and still nothing was found.

"How could this happen? Where are my things? Where are my things?"

He fell to the ground in despair and crawled madly towards the freshly dug holes, but there was nothing there except moist soil.

"I'll dig three feet into the ground to find it for me."

One day, two days, the wasteland was turned upside down. No one knew what he was looking for, but they only knew that he was in a very bad mood. Anyone who made a mistake at this time would be punished with a beating at best, or even sold out at worst.

After two days of reflection, Lu Zhengping finally accepted the fact that his things were missing. The person he suspected the most was Yan Wanwan, but how could she transfer all that gold, silver and jewelry by herself?

Even when someone came to the General's Mansion, he was supervising the whole process and could ensure that no one discovered the secret hidden underground.

Where could that thing go? Could it be that it's hard to guard against thieves in the house?

It’s a pity that those things cannot be seen in public, otherwise he would search the whole Jingzhao to find the person who stole his treasures.

Only Yan Wanwan knew why he was so crazy. Even though she had robbed many gold shops in the apocalypse, she had never seen so many treasures.

But now those are all his. Who told him not to put his things in the warehouse? Ownerless things are naturally on a first-come, first-served basis. Being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself. This is the truth she learned with her life in the apocalypse.

She put down the cake in her hand and said thoughtfully, "It's time to go talk to the Shangshu's wife about the dowry."

Chen Mei'e personally made ginseng soup in the yard. Seeing that her husband had been restless these days, she was very worried.

Just as she finished cooking, she heard the servant announce that the eldest lady had come to pay her respects.

She couldn't help but sneer. How could someone come to pay their respects in the afternoon? But she still let her in.

Yan Wanwan said straight to the point, "The wedding date is approaching. I wonder if the Shangshu's wife has prepared the maids and nannies for the dowry?"

Chen Mei'e was too tired to complain about her address and casually dismissed her, "Er Ya will follow you as a dowry maid. As for Mammy..."

"Madame Shangshu's wife, Madam Li, is quite good. Why not let her be my dowry nanny?"

"Mother Li?"

Ever since Nanny Li brought Yan Wanwan back home from outside, she has been ill and has not been able to get out of bed yet.

Although that was the old lady beside him, she was now unconscious and there was no point in keeping her by his side. It would be better for him to go with her and act as a spy.

Chen Mei'e agreed immediately and said, "I'll ask Madam Li to come to your courtyard to serve you later."

"Thank you very much, Madam Shangshu."

After saying that, she turned and left.

Chen Mei'e recalled blankly, this seemed to be the first time that the mother and daughter were able to talk calmly.
