A wealthy family recognizes my relatives? But I am already a billionaire.

Chapter 251 Euro

Lu Jingyao rarely refuses Xu Youyou, and this time is no exception.

Besides, he accompanied Xu Youyou to Finland just to let her have fun.

However, Xu Youyou still felt a little guilty about her temporary change of itinerary. After all, this was not an individual act, but a chain reaction that affected the entire group, and a large number of people behind her had to change their itineraries as well.

It's impossible that Lu Jingyao had no idea about Xu Youyou's multiple last-minute changes to her schedule, but she just never brought it up.

"Do you think I'm weird?" Xu Youyou asked.

Lu Jingyao smiled and said, "You must have your reasons for doing things."

Xu Youyou glanced at the system panel in the air and couldn't explain the existence of the system to Lu Jingyao.

"I... I do have my own reasons... but if I can't explain it to you in my lifetime... will you blame me..." Xu Youyou asked.

Lu Jingyao looked at her seriously: "Everyone has their own secrets. If your secret is the foundation of your life, not only can you not tell me, you can't tell your children in the future. Since it is a secret, you shouldn't tell anyone."

Xu Youyou's heart skipped a beat. Because of the secret she had concealed, she felt that she might never be able to be honest with her lover in her entire life.

Now Lu Jingyao's words seemed to have lifted the burden from her heart.

"Aren't you curious?" Xu Youyou couldn't help but ask.

Lu Jingyao said: "Of course I'm curious, but I don't want to embarrass you."

Xu Youyou smiled awkwardly. Although Lu Jingyao's words were touching, the existence of the system was the foundation of her life, and she was determined to take this secret to her grave.

"Now that you have made the decision, don't worry about it anymore." Lu Jingyao said softly.

Xu Youyou nodded vigorously. After leaving her residence, she strode ahead, following the golden pointer of the system, and walked through this small Nordic city.

After walking in the snow for half an hour, Xu Youyou stopped.

In front of her was a grocery store.

It looked like it was only about 30 or 40 square meters. There was an old man sitting behind the counter in the grocery store, with a wooden face, staring at a book.

Hearing the sound of someone coming in, the old man raised his eyes from the book. Seeing a group of Chinese faces, the old man said tentatively: "You howl."

The old man's Mandarin had a strange tone, but everyone present understood him.

Xu Youyou felt the other person's kindness, nodded, and replied in a clear and articulate voice: "Hello."

The old man listened to the sound and tried to learn it as well, but due to his long-standing habit, even though he learned it seriously, the sound he made was still "you howl".

Xu Youyou asked, "Can you speak Mandarin?"

When the old man heard this, his eyes were confused for a moment, and then he replied in Finnish: "I'm trying to learn Chinese by myself, but it seems that the results are not obvious. Your language is too complicated."

The accompanying Finnish translator immediately translated the other party's words to Xu Youyou and others.

Xu Youyou didn't expect that the old man in front of her, who looked to be in his sixties, actually had such a heart that never stopped learning. Xu Youyou couldn't help but feel a touch of respect in her heart.

"Thank you for your recognition of Chinese. I wish you good luck in your studies." Xu Youyou said with a smile.

The Finnish old man also laughed and said, "You Chinese are always very friendly. Although I am slow to learn your language, I think it is very beautiful."

In a cold foreign country, Xu Youyou felt warm in her heart when she received kindness from others.

The Finnish old man asked, "My store has a wide variety of items. Customers from China, you will definitely find something you like here."

Xu Youyou's gaze followed the system's instructions and fell on the shelf behind the old man.

The items in the old man's grocery store are really diverse. Here you can find skiing equipment, fishing equipment, books, and pots and pans. It is a real grocery store.

"Can I see this plate?" Xu Youyou asked softly.

After listening to the translator's explanation, the old man happily turned around and took a plate from the shelf behind him.

This plate is a beautiful tin red in color. It has obviously been carefully preserved and is in perfect condition.

"This thing originally belongs to your country." The old man took the initiative to speak.

Xu Youyou looked at the other person in surprise.

The old man smiled and said, "This thing was sold to me by a Frenchman. He said it was passed down from his ancestors, but he thought it was not good."

"Why does he think so?" Xu Youyou didn't understand.

After all, in her eyes, this thing has a warm temperament, like the warm sun in winter, which makes people feel close to it and cannot feel any bad luck at all.

The feeling this lacquer tray gave Xu Youyou was completely different from the painting on the ceiling of the castle, so she instinctively felt that it was a treasure of her family.

The old man said, "The Frenchman only said that his family has been in trouble since he got this treasure. They used to be a large family with more than 20 people, but now that this treasure has been passed down to him, he is the only one left."

Xu Youyou was very surprised: "Is it all caused by this thing?"

The old man said, "Who knows whether what he said is true or not? After all, he is not a good person. He fled here after killing someone in his own country. At first, he even wanted to rob me."

When Xu Youyou heard this, she once again showed respect for the ordinary-looking Finnish old man in front of her.

He was able to escape from the robbers unscathed and even took their things. This old man in front of me doesn't look like a simple character at all.

The old man said, "Little girl, I didn't steal this thing. It was a fair deal between him and me. I even paid him two pieces of bread for it."

Although Xu Youyou didn't know the specific value of this plate, she believed that a treasure that could be valued by the system would probably be worth at least several million.

"I want to buy this treasure. Please name a price." Xu Youyou said.

The old man stretched out his hand and gestured the word two.

"Two hundred thousand euros?" Xu Youyou had a good impression of the old man, so she gave a fairly honest price.

The old man shook his head and said, "I only want 20 euros. Consider it as a meal for you."

Xu Youyou didn't understand.

The old man patiently explained, "The Frenchman who got this treasure was not lucky. Since I got it, I have been very successful in the past few years. I was originally heavily in debt. I took the gun that day with the intention of committing suicide."

"The blind French came to rob me, but they couldn't beat me, so they had to buy their lives with the plate. I got the plate, and suddenly I didn't want to die anymore. Half a month later, I won the jackpot and paid off my debt."

"Then I met my wife, had two children, sent them to college, and watched them get married and have children."

"I know this is your Chinese treasure. As a foreigner, I'm destined not to be able to keep it. I've run this grocery store for many years, and this treasure has always been behind me, but you're the only one who noticed it, so it's you who should take it away."
