Chapter 10 Buying an agarwood pillow is a slap in the face

Yun Qi Qi
"Coming so late?"
Shen Lu frowned, and at a glance he saw the young man sandwiched between the middle-aged man and the bodyguard behind him.
What's the origin? He's quite handsome!
"This young lady looks like the owner of the house."
The middle-aged man whispered to his young master.
When Shen Shensi heard this, she felt even more uncomfortable and her face became much uglier.
Why is Shen Lu more like the master?
She has lived here for 18 years!
"Xiaolu, who is here?"
Mrs. Shen was soaking her feet in the house. When she heard the sound, she dried her feet quickly before putting on her shoes and socks and came out.
She looked at the powerful young man in front of her, and vaguely saw the shadow of an old friend on his face. After a long time, she said: "Are you from the Lu family?"
"Junior Lu Xingye has met Miss Shen Qi!"
Lu Xingye bowed to Mrs. Shen as a junior.
"Are you Lu Yuan's grandson?" Mrs. Shen narrowed her eyes.
If an old friend suddenly appears after not seeing him for many years, he must have gone to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.
"Yes." Lu Xingye nodded.
"Could it be that your grandpa..." Old Mrs. Shen looked a little unhappy.
Lu Xingye instantly understood what the old lady was thinking, and he was speechless.
But he still explained: "He is not dead yet!"
"Pfft--" Shen Lu couldn't hold back his laughter.
Is this one pretty straightforward?
Mrs. Shen also realized that she had made an own mistake.
She glared at her granddaughter: "Xiaolu, why don't you invite the guests into the house?"
Fine.
Shen Lu turned on the lights in the main room and invited Lu Xingye: "Let's go, it's cold outside, come inside and chat."
Lu Xingye glanced at Shen Lu and followed her in.
The middle-aged man, Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper, naturally followed him.
Because there were guests, Mrs. Shen couldn't take care of Lin Rou, mother and son.
The three of them followed in automatically.
"I have been separated from your old man for more than forty years. How has he been doing since he returned to the imperial capital?"
"You found Shenjiacun, what's the matter?"
Mrs. Shen doesn't like to be polite.
Lu Xingye is also not good at replacing his grandfather for a long time.
Of course, playing the emotional card is useless.
Lin Rou and the others were a little surprised when they heard this.
In those days, how could a country person like the old lady know someone from the imperial capital?
Looking at Lu Xingye, he knew that the Lu family's conditions were not bad, and the car alone was worth a lot of money.
The sudden arrival of distinguished guests seemed to indicate that this old woman was different from the country people Lin Rou imagined.
"The old man suffers from severe rheumatism, and now his whole body hurts so much that he can't sleep peacefully."
"I heard that the dowry prepared by Mr. Shen family for you included a pair of agarwood pillows. I wonder if Miss Shen Qi would like to part with them?"
Mrs. Shen looked at her old friend's grandson again: "Who did you listen to?"
"Also, don't call me Miss Shen Qi."
The world has changed. How can there be Miss Shen Qi in this world?
"According to seniority, it's okay for you to call me Grandma Shen."
Lu Xingye followed his advice and said, "Okay, Grandma Shen."
"When grandpa went to the countryside, he must have heard people say that your great-grandfather once deposited your dowry for you in HSBC Bank..."
With outsiders present, Lu Xingye couldn't say more.
"Agarwood pillow, there is indeed a pair."
Mrs. Shen did not deny it. She also saw Lin Rou and Shen Sisi's surprise. She only glanced at it and then looked away.
"However, you came at an unlucky time."
Lu Xingye frowned slightly, and his heart felt like he was on a roller coaster.
We had clearly reached the top of the mountain just now, but now we were sliding down to the valley.
"Have you given it away?" Lu Xingye never thought about the possibility of selling it.
Even though the courtyard where Shen Haitang lives now is a bit shabby, it is not necessarily the case that every stone slab in his house is covered with gold bricks.
He didn't think that Shen Haitang would be so short of money that he would sell his dowry.
The old man said that the Shen family did not show their wealth in the past, but secretly hid their wealth!
If the doctor hadn't suggested that he find an agarwood pillow for the old man, he wouldn't have gone to such trouble to find it, knowing that the chance was slim.
"Yes, it was given to my granddaughter."
Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Lu instead of thinking deeply.
Shen Shensi's face didn't look good. Is the agarwood pillow really hers?
"Then I can only ask Miss Shen if I can part ways with you."
Lu Xingye looked at Shen Lu.
He was a smart man, so how could he fail to see that Shen Si, who had led the way before, was not the old lady's granddaughter at all.
The old lady looked at Shen Lu as someone close to him, but looked at Shen Sisi at a distance.
"The agarwood pillow was the first gift my grandma gave me after I returned home. I don't want to give it to anyone else."
Shen Lu actually refused!
Lin Rou couldn't help but say: "Shen Lu, do you know the value of agarwood pillow?"
"If you sell it, you and your grandma can move to the city and have no worries about food and clothing!"
Sure enough, people who come from a small family have stupidity in their genes.
Lin Rou didn't know who Lu Xingye was, but with his appearance, it was not simple.
Bodyguards, butlers, and elegant clothes all show that he is either rich or noble.
If the agarwood pillow belonged to Sisi, she would even persuade Sisi to give it to Lu Xingye.
Such a person does things decently. If you give him what he needs, he will definitely make up for it in other places and will not let you suffer.
Lin Rou was full of scheming, but Shen Lu just pretended not to see it.
"Thank you Aunt Lin for your suggestion, I think so too."
This is another twist.
Lu Xingye raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Lu: "Miss Shen is really willing to sell me the agarwood pillow?"
"Of course." Shen Lu smiled kindly at him.
"Grandma gave me a gift and asked me to give it to others. I can't do it, but I can still sell it."
"Besides, grandma gave me both pillows."
"I'll keep one and sell you one, what do you think?"
Of course Lu Xingye wants a pair.
Because the value of agarwood pillow is there, it cannot be bought with money.
"Your old man is in so much pain that he can't sleep. The doctor recommended using an agarwood pillow, so one pillow is enough for him to sleep on alone."
Lu Xingye also understood that all the benefits could not be his.
"As long as Miss Shen is willing to give up her love, one is fine."
Shen Lu immediately went to get the agarwood pillow from which the thick cotton material had been cut off by Mrs. Shen.
He was carried out with the cotton cloth.
Shen Shensi recognized it at a glance. This was the pillow she had slept on since she was a child!
"Look, this was just taken out of the cotton cloth today."
Lu Xingye did not dislike the shabby cotton cloth. He only took a quick glance at it and knew that it was indeed what the old man needed.
"Yes, it's an agarwood pillow. This scent is so mesmerizing!"
Opposite to Lu Xingye is Shen Sisi.
It's hers!
Now Shen Lu wants to sell this pillow to someone else.
Lu Xingye would not pay attention to Shen Sisi.
He just wanted to take the agarwood pillow back quickly: "Miss Shen, the agarwood pillow is worth a lot of money. I'll give you this number. Do you think it's okay?"
From beginning to end, Shen Lu never asked her grandma's opinion.
Mrs. Shen also let her granddaughter make the decision.
Shen Lu frowned, and at a glance he saw the young man sandwiched between the middle-aged man and the bodyguard behind him.
What's the origin? He's quite handsome!
"This young lady looks like the owner of the house."
