The Tycoon's Little Darling: Uncle, you're going to spoil me rotten!

Chapter 556 The Dowry Left by the Mother-in-Law

Gu Nuannuan heard this but deliberately didn't reply.

After she left the bedroom, Jiang Chenyu sat on the sofa, irritated and leaning against the cushions, feeling helpless.

The couple exchanged a few words, and then angrily took their child and left.

A little while later, fearing that his young wife might run away from home, Jiang Chenyu went out to look for the mother and daughter.

In the living room, Gu Nuannuan sat on the sofa, sulking and holding her child.

The housekeeper was checking the betrothal gifts sent by the Su family, while Wei Aihua was busy delivering them to the storage room.

Jiangsu has disappeared again. Only Gu Nuannuan's thin frame is holding the little guy she raised, Naibiao, who is fast asleep with a peaceful expression on his face.

Jiang Chenyu sat down next to his wife. Gu Nuannuan sensed her husband's approach but didn't say a word.

Jiang Chenyu spoke first again, "I said a few words to you, is it really necessary to get so angry and bring the child down?"

He turned to the side, ready to take his chubby son, who weighed over ten pounds, and said that his arms would ache if he carried his wife for a while.

Jiang Chenyu felt sorry for his wife's sore arms, but he wouldn't say it out loud.

Gu Nuannuan held her son tightly and wouldn't let go, saying, "What do you, the big CEO, think is so important? Would you be happy if I said a few words to you?"

After saying that, Gu Nuannuan didn't feel that her husband was apologizing. She got up and ran away from the living room again.

Jiang Chenyu was left alone in the living room again. He sighed, having managed to tread on the tail of the irritable Nuannuan. Fortunately, this time she didn't run back to her parents' house with the child in her anger.

Jiang Chenyu got up, and in just a short while, he had no idea where his wife and son had hidden.

The more Mr. Jiang pondered it in his bedroom, the more he regretted it. Later, he concluded that impulsiveness is the devil.

Now, the Su family has accepted the gifts, given the money, and arranged their daughter's marriage.

He scratched his head in frustration, "How could I have agreed so carelessly? Couldn't I have calmed down?"

As Jiang went out, he glanced at the betrothal gifts sent by the Su family, and the more he looked, the more depressed he felt.

Later, he went to the memorial room for his deceased wife, seeking a quiet place.

Jiang Chenyu was no idle man. He had urgent business to attend to at his company. When he went to his study, he passed by his mother's memorial tablet room and heard the sounds coming from inside. Jiang Chenyu stopped at the door.

In his twilight years, Old Jiang looked at his beloved's most beautiful appearance from back then, recalling their past moments. "Wife," he said, "do you think Lin Yan will treat our daughter well? I've observed that he seems like a nice young man, but... I just don't feel comfortable with him."

Jiang Chenyu stood at the door for a while, but he didn't go in. He went straight to the study.

Gu Nuannuan went to the Tibetan room.

When you're in a bad mood, you should look at some valuable and good things.

She hadn't even looked closely at her best friend's dowry, but now she's brought her child to see it.

Wei Aihua was still counting when she saw her sister-in-law. "Nuan Nuan, Xiao Shan Jun is asleep. Why didn't you put the child down?"

Gu Nuannuan looked down at the chubby little guy, "He's used to being held, and he cries as soon as I put him down, so I just keep holding him."

She didn't show her emotions from arguing with her husband on her face, so Wei Aihua didn't notice anything.

"Sister-in-law, will Momo's dowry be given directly to our family?" Gu Nuannuan asked.

Wei Aihua said, "Let's leave them for now. These gifts will be returned to Momo after Momo and Linyan get married."

Gu Nuannuan suddenly recalled that when she got married, if she remembered correctly, her parents had given her a dowry back then, but she hadn't paid attention to it at the time. Afterwards, she felt puzzled, "Sister-in-law, my parents gave me a dowry back then, why are they returning it to me?"

Wei Aihua explained, "That's for you and Chenyu's little family. The bride price is originally for the bride's family. Your parents don't use it, and it all goes to your little family in the end. The same goes for Momo's. Our family doesn't use her bride price either. When Momo gets married, all of this will be taken back with the betrothal gifts."

Gu Nuannuan seemed to understand what it meant.

Looking at the gifts that she could barely put down, she said, "When I got married, my dowry wasn't even half of what Momo received."

Wei Aihua laughed and said, "Why don't you say that one of your gifts is worth ten of Momo's dowries?"

"Huh?" Nuan asked in surprise. Wei Aihua countered, "Didn't you check your betrothal gifts?"

"I was already thinking about breaking off the engagement, who would be in the mood to look at the bride price?" Gu Nuannuan said bluntly.

Wei Aihua chuckled, "You silly Nuannuan, how many good things have you missed? The betrothal gifts sent out by the Jiang family were personally delivered by our father, how could they be cheap? One piece alone is priceless, and there's also a jade bracelet that our mother left for you when she was alive. There are only two of them in the world, they're already rare treasures. That bracelet alone is worth half of all the gifts in this room."

The woman holding the baby was shocked: "??? What?" She had such a wonderful thing? Why didn't anyone tell her?

"Sister-in-law, what does that bracelet look like?"

Wei Aihua chuckled, "You silly child, do you remember the green jade bracelet I wore before?"

Gu Nuannuan nodded frantically.

Wei Aihua explained, "There is only one pair of jade bracelets in the world. Our mother gave one to me and left the other to you. It has become very difficult to find such stone quality since then, so currently only you and I have the jade bracelets."

Sure enough, the treasure could cure all unhappiness.

Look, she has already forgotten the trouble her husband caused her; all she can think about is that priceless bracelet.

Wei Aihua asked in confusion, "That's not right. You don't know its value, but your parents should know. Why didn't they tell you?"

Gu Nuannuan shook her head. "They didn't tell me. If they had, I would have gotten married immediately." Why would I have bothered to call off the engagement?

Even if it's just for that priceless bracelet, she has to go through with the marriage!

"Sister-in-law, where is my betrothal gift?" Gu Nuannuan was now eager to know where her valuable gifts were.

Wei Aihua was puzzled. "You're asking me? How would I know where you put your dowry before you got married?"

Nuan looked regretful and cried, "I forgot. I'll go ask my mom for my dowry now." Wei Aihua looked at her sister-in-law's tearful expression and smiled affectionately, "Go quickly. Many of the good things in your dowry were left for you and Chenyu by our mother when she was alive."

Gu Nuannuan doesn't even want to hold the baby anymore; holding the baby would delay her from finding her dowry.

Unfortunately, the little guy cries as soon as I put him down after he falls asleep, so I have to hold him to sleep.

So, in the end, Xiaoshanjun lay in the arms of the butler.

housekeeper:"……"

Okay, let's keep counting while holding the little chubby one.

The old woman was folding her grandson's small mattress at home when her daughter called.

"Mom, Mom, it's extremely urgent! What happened to my dowry from back then?"

In the afternoon, Gu Nuannuan disappeared without a trace.

In the evening, Gu Nuannuan had a bracelet on her arm.

With this bracelet, she couldn't even bear to hold her baby. "Son, it's not that Mom doesn't want to hold you, it's just that Mom is afraid you'll crush my bracelet."

Little Mountain Lord, who woke up crying and wanting his mom to hold him: "..."

The little guy has no teeth, is quite chubby, and is dressed in thick winter clothes.

The bright yellow cotton coat made the little guy's face look even whiter. His chubby little face scrunched up as he opened his mouth and cried loudly, trying to awaken his money-grubbing mother's love for him.
