As soon as Xiao Chu said this, everyone calmed down and then turned their eyes to Liu.
This matter seems to be more appropriate for Liu.
Liu hesitated for a while, wondering whether he should tell Xiao Chu about these things.
"What's wrong? Mom, what's going on? Can you tell me?"
As Xiao Chu finished speaking, the people in the hall became even more silent.
"From the third family, even if we don't talk about this, Chu'er will definitely know about it in the future. After all, so many people in the village have witnessed these things, so there is no need for us to hide it from Chu'er, what do you think."
The person who spoke was really the second aunt. At this time, she was looking at Liu with a serious face.
Liu was silent for a long time, then sighed.
"Chu'er, I don't want to tell you these things, for fear of losing a good child like you after you say it, but if I don't tell you, I'm afraid my mother will never feel at ease in her life." Liu's expression was solemn, slow down
He spoke slowly.
Xiao Chu was confused when he heard this, obviously he didn't know what Liu was going to say next.
Afterwards, Liu ordered Xiao Cheng, Xiao Lin and a servant to go out, leaving only Liu, the second aunt and other elders in the living room.
Afterwards, Liu and his second aunt took Xiao Chu to Liu's room.
I saw Liu skillfully move out a small box from under the bed.
The box was covered with dust, and the ancient feeling was emitting. It seemed that it had been covered with dust for a long time.
Liu found the key from the foot of the bed, and then slowly opened the box.
Xiao Chu looked into the box and saw a small cloth quilt placed in it.
Liu took out the small cloth bag, his hands trembled, and then opened the small cloth bag in front of Xiao Chu.
What caught my eye was a neatly stacked baby swaddle.
If you look closely, the material used in the swaddle is fine and of high-end material, and it is obviously the kind of high-end material.
Seeing this, Xiao Chu suddenly realized that this was the swaddling clothes he wore when he was a child.
"Chu'er, this is your scrambled baby when you were a child."
Xiao Chu looked at him curiously, as if he knew what Liu was going to say next, so he had to stare at Liu, his eyes red.
"Twenty years ago, I was washing by the river. I saw something floating around. I saw it. I realized it was a living baby. I felt compassion for my mother at that time. Seeing that the baby was cute, I decided to adopt him.
.”
Seeing this, Liu's eyes flashed, and tears had already wet their eyes.
"And this baby is you, Chu'er, this cradle was worn on you at that time. You are not my mother's biological son!"
After the words came to an end, Liu suddenly collapsed and fell to the edge of the bed.
After hearing this, Xiao Chu quickly supported Liu, then helped him sit on the bed, and then knelt down in front of Liu.
"Mom, I am Mom's son, and I will always be Mom's son."
Then, Xiao Chu kowtowed to Liu three times again!
The grace of raising one cannot be repaid, so these three resounding things are naturally not excessive.
"Chu'er, get up, I heard from my mother that the river I picked up was Weishui. Only this cradle can prove your identity. However, this information is excellent. I think your biological parents must be either rich or noble, just
Don't know how to find it."
Xiao Chu's eyes were red and he said, "Mother doesn't have to worry. If your biological parents are destined to meet you."
"Chu'er, your grandfather specifically told me before his death that my Xiao family has made a fortune today, so that Wei'er must tell you your life experience in the future, and not continue to hide it from you, and ask you to find your biological parents.
We will definitely help you! It is my grandfather’s last wish to find your biological parents and recognize your ancestors!”
Liu slowly told all the secrets and told Xiao Chu.
Xiao Chu also nodded, "Mom, don't worry, no matter whether I find my biological parents or not, I will always be your son. The grace of raising me is greater than that of the great, and I will never forget you."
After speaking, Liu held Xiao Chu in his arms, and the mother and son hugged each other and cried, tears falling like rain!
The second aunt was also sad and full of tears when she watched.
"Oh, okay, Chu'er is so sensible, and he has great kindness to my Xiao family. Even if he finds his biological parents, he will always remember your good deeds. Don't be sad."
The second aunt comforted Xiao Chudao.
After a while, Xiao Chu quickly changed the subject and asked, "By the way, mother, let me ask you why my Xiao family has developed into the richest man in Dingyuan in just over ten years. You have not answered yet."
After hearing this, Liu also breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Fifteen years ago, the imperial court came to a mansion and said that he wanted to take you to the capital. We will temporarily return to Zhengjia Village to hide in accordance with your suggestions to avoid causing
Disaster.”
Liu paused for a moment, then continued, "But I didn't expect that the imperial guard chased him to the Zheng family village and caught our family directly. Finally, your grandfather told the big secret and attracted Zheng.
The villagers testified that you are not the biological descendant of our Xiao family, which made the imperial court manipulator dispel the idea of escorting us to the capital."
"After that, although our family was no longer threatened, the county magistrate, under the instruction of the imperial court, repeatedly exploited our Xiao family, which made our business plummet and barely survive. Just two years later, the county was transferred to the county.
After a new master, we found out that this master didn't love anything else, so we had to spend all the money in our family to clear the relationship, bribed the new master, and asked him to take care of the business at home."
"After that, under the care of the great master, the business of the Xiao family gradually improved. With the money-making model you left behind, we re-established the Xiao family's industries, and various restaurants, teahouses, storytelling and other industries gradually grew.
In return, my Xiao family shared the annual profits to that great man, which was as much as ten thousand taels.”
Speaking of this, Liu and his second aunt sighed.
After hearing this, Xiao Chu nodded. The fact that the Xiao family has today is related to the care of the county magistrate.
However, taking away tens of thousands of taels of silver from the Xiao family every year is a bit too much.
However, the business model developed by the Xiao family is indeed relatively advanced, and those who do restaurant business in the city will inevitably not be able to compete with it, so it is not surprising that the Xiao family can develop into the richest man in Dingyuan in these years.
Since he learned this news, Xiao Chu also thought about solving this problem before leaving, otherwise he would let this guy keep exploiting the Xiao family, which would not be a problem.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chu asked, "Mom, what's the name of that magistrate?"
Liu was stunned, not knowing what Xiao Chu was going to do, so he asked, "Chu'er, what are you asking?"
Xiao Chu smiled and said slowly: "Mom, there's nothing to do. I just ask casually. I also know a lot of people in the officialdom. Let's see if I can think of a solution."
