    The old lady¡¯s small treasury is still very rich. Although it is not as good as the assets and dowry that Zhu Jiayi inherited from the Zhu family, it is still the only one in Kyoto!

    "Yi'er, your mother also left Beijing with your father when you were your age, and has come back three or five times since then." The old lady held a half-sized box and said full of memories, "They say girls  It's my mother's little cotton-padded jacket. How can a son be as considerate and filial as his daughter?

    Not to mention the daughter-in-law who is the opposite!

    You, like your mother, are the most filial to me except your grandfather.  "

    She opened the box, and it turned out to be full of pearls and gold ornaments, which illuminated the dark room much brighter.  "People, you have to accept your fate. Since your grandfather passed away, our Duke Du's mansion should have changed its lintel a long time ago.

    It¡¯s me who has been shamelessly fighting with the two masters above, pretending not to understand anything, and ignoring the fact that the government has exceeded the standards.

    Now that one master is gone, the other one is settling accounts with us nobles.

    ¡°Oh, Yi¡¯er, I saved these for you, mother and daughter.  Every time I get something good, I want to keep it for you. Unexpectedly, one by one, the box is full.

    ¡°Take it, grandma has wronged you after all.  "

    Zhu Jiayi's eyes were red, and she couldn't help but put her arm in hers, and rested her head on the old lady's shoulder in an extremely well-behaved and sad manner, "Grandma, Yi'er has never felt wronged.

    "My father and mother left Yi'er one after another. It was you who protected Yi'er from the wind and rain like a big tree!"

    He is Yi'er's only blood relative in this world. Even if you feel sorry for Yi'er, you have to cheer up and get better.

    Although the two uncles are older, with you here, they are like children and still need you to make decisions!

    ¡°Grandma¡­¡±

    "Silly girl," the old lady stroked her smooth face and said with a smile, "your grandmother is almost turning into an old fairy. There are not many old ladies and gentlemen of my age among the nobles.

    It¡¯s because I¡¯m greedy for the world and I¡¯m reluctant to close my eyes.

    I missed you the most before, but now I see you living happily in Dou's house, I have nothing to worry about.

    As for your uncles, your aunts and those sisters, how many times have they looked at me?  If Baba hadn't been staring at this little thing in my hand, I would have wanted to help dig holes and fill them with soil!  "

    The old lady was also very sad, "I have worked hard for most of my life, and you are the only one in bed.

    They are getting older, their wings are hardened, they have their own little jiujiu, and they are impatient with me, an old woman.

    Why should I worry about them?

    You take this box back and treat it as a gift from your grandmother to you and your future children.  These objects are all good and will not be out of date even if they are a hundred or two hundred years old.  "

    Zhu Jiayi hugged the old lady tightly, "Grandma"

    The old lady could not survive the winter of this year. As soon as she died, the two sons started to divide her small treasury in front of her bed, making an extremely ugly scene.

    Instead, Zhu Jiayi led a group of girls to clean up the old lady.

    Because the Supreme Emperor had just gone away not long ago, the old lady¡¯s funeral was extremely simple. Only her family and in-laws came to attend the funeral.  Thinking about the glory of the old lady during her lifetime, and then looking at the desolation at this moment, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

    The two masters of the Du family divided the old lady's treasury, and after the funeral, they quickly separated their homes.  However, the second wife held the money in her hands and did not move out of the house. She still carried the name of the second master and second wife of Du Guogong's house.

    Duke Du's mansion is declining day by day, but it's just that the money in the palace has bottomed out, but the pockets of the first and second bedrooms are indeed bulging, and with the old lady's private money, life is even more comfortable than before!

    The slaves below also became active and continued to pull things into their own homes.

    But without the protection of the old lady, no one in Du Guogong's palace had made any contribution to the court or the people. With a wave of his hand, the emperor had people come to the door with all kinds of crimes committed by everyone in the palace, including the master and slaves.

    All the confiscated property in Du Guogong's mansion was confiscated, and the masters and high-ranking slaves were sent to the frontier to open up wasteland.  Sometimes life is a disaster. The journey from Kyoto to the frontier is 1,800 kilometers, and the weather is so cold. You can imagine how much hardship they have to endure!

    Not only the Du family, but also five families were sent to the border areas, with thousands of people, just in time to go with the troops stationed at the border.

    "These are all criminals, and few of them came to see them off. Everyone was afraid of being implicated, and it was too late to hide. How could they come up to contaminate right and wrong, and let others find evidence?"

    Except for some close relatives and those who value affection and righteousness,?Slaves, etc.

    The people of Du Guofu made a look at the other house and lay on a thick cotton coat and lay on the donkey cart. They could only wrap the dying clothes on their bodies, and curled up together.

    They can¡¯t help but think of the luxurious days in the past, when they casually rewarded their servants with gold and silver, and even drank bird¡¯s nests as porridge three times a day until they were tired of it.  Who would have thought that now they can't even compare to the lowest coachman in the house!

    And this was just the beginning, their faces became even grayer and more desperate.

    "Hey, what is that in the distance? Are there so many carts of food? Don't we have all the food?" The resting soldiers gathered together and discussed in a low voice.

    ¡°Some people even rode up to the horse and looked at it. What could the bags on the car be if it weren¡¯t food?  But the vastness is really frightening and inevitably exciting.

    The general who led the team sent his deputy to ride over to inquire.

    "Brother, what are you doing?"

    ¡°Master Jun, our master heard that there was a shortage of supplies and food and clothing on the border, so he personally delivered these dozens of carts of grain and cotton cloth.¡± The driver in the lead shouted back.

    As they walked in, everyone could clearly see an elegant and unique carriage in the middle of the motorcade.

    When the car stopped, a woman immediately stepped forward to put the footstool in place. A stern man jumped down and turned around to pick up the woman behind him.

    The woman was wearing a white mink cloak with a cyan skirt underneath. The hat on the cloak covered most of her face, only revealing her delicate white chin.

    "Master Dou!" The leading general looked at the man and immediately stepped forward, cupping his fists and shouting.

    "General Qi," Dou Yu nodded with a faint smile, "My wife didn't want to see the soldiers suffer, so she donated all the produce in the village this year, and also used money to purchase a lot of cotton cloth, as well as these livestock and cars.  .¡±

    "Mrs. Dou is so kind," General Qi said with great gratitude, "On behalf of the soldiers, I would like to thank Madam Dou and Master Dou!"

    Zhu Jiayi chuckled and said: "The soldiers are protecting their homes and the country on the border. It's our turn to thank you.

    Although my ability is limited, I am still willing to contribute a small amount of strength.

    From now on, every autumn when food comes down, I will send people to the border areas to deliver a batch.

    Only when soldiers have a full meal can they stand guard and patrol with full energy!  "(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
