Binding system, I can plant flowers and grass!

When Mrs. Lu saw what was in the gift box, she couldn't take her eyes away and touched it carefully, "Is this a gift from the Chen family?"

Lu Qianqian nodded, "Yeah!"

These jade ornaments cost at least several hundred taels. How could the Chen family be so generous?

Mrs. Lu was silent for a while before she said, "Although the Chen family married Chen Xin into the family, they don't usually interact with each other. At most, your third brother would bring her back for a meal and then leave."

"The Chen family was attracted by your third brother's academic ability. He usually lives in the capital city. He doesn't have to live in the village and serve his parents-in-law after marrying in. The two families only met once when they got married. When I saw the eldest brother of the Chen family today, I almost didn't recognize him."

Old Mrs. Lu understood the Chen family's attitude today. They just saw that her daughter was capable and wanted to have some contact with them. In the past, Chen Xin asked the Chen family to buy her daughter's fruits because her daughter's products were good, so of course the Chen family was willing to accept such a good thing.

However, the relationship between the two companies is just a trading relationship.

But the Chen family's behavior today clearly shows that they want to have a good relationship with them.

Before Lu Qianqian could say anything, Old Lady Lu continued, "The Chen family is not bad. At least they haven't done anything excessive. It's normal for them to look down on our family. Just accept the things they send you. It's a waste not to accept them. And your third sister-in-law, she won't be stupid enough to give you things. If she can give you things, it means she thinks you are valuable. Be careful in the future. Don't be so sincere when she gives you something."

Even Old Lady Lu said that there was no problem with the Chen family, so it was not impossible to cooperate with them. Yalan only covered Tianyuan Prefecture and the capital. If it involved other towns and other countries, the shop would be too big. If she were to do it alone, it would take a long time to recruit the staff.

If they cooperate with the Chen family, they have a ready-made caravan. Plus, with so many years of operation from generation to generation, the Chen family must have more shops in Daxia Kingdom than Shen Yalan, who is just starting out.

"I know what to do?" Lu Qianqian said with a smile, and reached out to take out a jade bracelet from the gift box, "Mom, this looks good on you. I have this jade bracelet given by my third sister-in-law, and it was given by the Chen family. You can wear one for fun."

Old Mrs. Lu did not dare to argue with her daughter, for fear of damaging the jade bracelet. She could only let her daughter put the jade bracelet on her wrist and said, "Why are you wearing it? I am an old woman, why am I wearing a jade bracelet? Take it back and put it away quickly."

As Mrs. Lu was about to take off the jade bracelet on her wrist, Lu Qianqian held her hand.

"Mom, I told you that I will let you live the life of an old lady in the future. Now it's just a jade bracelet. After a while, you will also have other things that the old lady has."

"Why do I need so many things! Keep them for yourself." Although Old Mrs. Lu said this, she felt sweet in her heart. Her daughter is still the best. She is not like those ungrateful men who only have eyes for their wives.

Old Mrs. Lu also knew her daughter's temper, so she didn't insist on returning the jade bracelet. She kept it for the time being, and would give it to her daughter as a dowry when she got married.

The mother and daughter talked for a while, and then Mrs. Lu left.

When Old Mrs. Lu happily returned to her room, she happened to see Old Man Lu coming out of the room with something in his hand.

"What's wrong? What did your daughter say to you? Why did you feel so happy?" Old Man Lu asked when he saw the old woman's smiling face.

Old Mrs. Lu raised her hand and let Old Man Lu look at the jade bracelet on her wrist, a milky white jade bracelet with that wateriness and that color.

Old Man Lu knew it was a good thing at first glance, and a question flashed in his eyes: "Is this a gift from your daughter?"

"Today, the eldest brother of the Chen family gave Qianqian a gift. This is the jade bracelet inside. Besides this, there are other jade ornaments. I think they are worth a lot of silver." Old Mrs. Lu said proudly.

Old Man Lu took a look at the jade bracelet. This bracelet alone should be worth about one hundred taels. The old woman also meant that there was something else, so it was very valuable.

"The Chen family saw that Qianqian was named county lord, so they wanted to have more contact with her." Old man Lu quickly figured out what the Chen family meant. In the past, the Lu family did not have the ability, so the Chen family certainly did not want to have more contact with them. Being able to hand Chen Xin over to Lu Zhenghui was probably the biggest concession.

"If we want to have contact, then we can have contact. The Chen family didn't have contact with us before because the two families were too different. Now my daughter has a good relationship with them. Today when we were having dinner, I heard that the Chen family wanted to do business with my daughter." Old Mrs. Lu thought of what the eldest brother of the Chen family said to Qianqian during lunch.

Seeing the old woman’s smiling face, Old Man Lu hesitated for a moment and said, “Old woman, if your daughter and Chen’s business do well in the future, can you help Xiaoyan’s family?”

Mrs. Lu, who was smiling all the time, sneered when she heard what Mr. Lu said, "How did Lu Yan treat me and you in the past? You are thinking about her now, but has she ever thought about you? She said something cruel back then, asking us not to regret it. Have you ever seen her come back in the 30 years since she got married?"

Lu Yan was Lu Gen's only sister. When she got married, she asked Lu Gen to give her a dowry of twenty taels of silver and two boxes. It was uncommon to be so particular in the countryside.

But Lu Yan was determined to do it. The family she was going to marry was from Lijia Village near Qingshan County. This family was considered a small landlord in Lijia Village and they had more than 50 acres of land. So Lu Yan didn't want to embarrass herself when she married into the family.

She asked her family to prepare these dowries for her, but at that time, Lu Gen had just been married for two years and built a new house when he got married. The family did not have much money, and Lu Yan's request really made it difficult for the Lu family.

The old lady of the Lu family could not bear to see her daughter being looked down upon by the Li family after her marriage, so she asked Lu Gen to borrow money from everywhere and scrape together twenty taels of silver. She also prepared a set of silver jewelry and a gold ring as a dowry. For a country family, such a dowry was already very good.

However, Lu Yan felt that it was her elder brother Lu Gen who was unwilling to give her a dowry. She thought that she was a married daughter, so Lu Gen was unwilling to spend money to buy her a dowry.

When she left, she made a harsh statement, saying that she would treat Lu Gen as if she didn't have a brother. Then she took the dowry that Lu Gen had prepared and followed the Li family.

Because of what Lu Yan caused, the Lu family had to pay back the money to other families. When Old Lady Lu had a miscarriage, the family did not have enough money, and the old lady of the Lu family did not care about her, so Lu Gen also went to the Li family to find Lu Yan.

But Lu Gen was driven away by the Li family before he even saw anyone.

This also made Lu Gen see through Lu Yan, as he had never mentioned her again in all these years.

Now that Old Man Lu brought it up again, how could Old Lady Lu not be angry?
