Chapter 1022 - 007 Home Controller (Second Update)
After dinner, each member of the family returned to their own quarters to rest.
Although it was their first night away from home and they were somewhat uncomfortable, they were exhausted from the past few days’ efforts and did not have any problems falling asleep.
Lady Liu entrusted Xiao Yongyan to Mother Zhang to be soothed to sleep, while she and Lin Jiaxin called Lin Yuan into their room.
Seeing her parents’ somber expressions, Lin Yuan was puzzled, "Father, Mother, is there something you wish to discuss with me?"
Lin Jiaxin and Lady Liu looked at each other and, in the end, it was Lady Liu who spoke, "Da Ya, your father and I have something to tell you."
As she spoke, Lady Liu took out a bunch of keys from her bosom. Upon seeing these keys, Lin Yuan’s gaze sharpened. When they had come to the Capital city, all of the valuable items and silver from their household had been locked in a large chest, and these were the keys to it.
What did Lady Liu mean by taking out these keys?
Lin Yuan looked at her mother with doubt, "Mother, what is this...?"
Lady Liu smiled and pushed the keys toward her, "Da Ya, your father and I have discussed this, and we have decided to handle our family’s treasures just as we did back in Lin family valley. It’s you who will be in charge of them. I’ve been keeping these keys, and it has made me so anxious that I haven’t been able to sleep peacefully. I am truly worried that I might lose them one day and cause you great trouble. Now that we’ve arrived in the Capital city, where there’ll be no shortage of expenses, it will be more convenient for you to manage the money if you hold onto the keys."
