Even after realizing that all this was Yaoniang's idea, he was just cooperating with Yaoniang,
Now he didn't take advantage of others' danger and took them away, he even brought them back.
If you look at it from this aspect, this young man is at least decent.
Zhou's current view of Xu Tianyi also changed a little.
Of course, these small changes are not likely to drastically change Zhou's attitude towards Xu Tianyi.
But she did start to consider whether to marry Yaoniang to Xu Tianyi.
So once he considered this, Zhou couldn't help but said to Xu Tianyi, "So, you have done a good thing. I have always made clear rewards and punishments."
"You helped Yaoniang today and brought her back safely. I am very grateful to you, so in order to express my gratitude to you, you can go with Granny Lin to the warehouse to get some bounty."
However, after hearing Zhou's words, Xu Tianyi immediately said, "Madam, it's my duty to accompany Yaoniang. Yaoniang is my unmarried wife. I accompany her to meet her father-in-law. This is I was supposed to do it in the first place, so I won’t ask for these if you give them to me.”
Hearing Xu Tianyi's words, Zhou was somewhat surprised. But thinking of that test, Mrs. Zhou still said, "If I give it to you, take it. If you do well, I will reward you. Isn't this also okay?"
I didn’t want to ask for God’s will, but I still insisted, “I did this out of my own heart, and I don’t need a reward. I was willing to do it, so I chose this way.”
Hearing Xu Tianyi's words, Zhou Yaoniang's eyes turned to admire Xu Tianyi. This was the kind of gentleman she admired.
And Zhou actually had some appreciation for this young man.
But no one knew whether this young man was deliberately performing in front of her to win her favor, so she only had a sulky look on her face.
"Hmph! It's really hard to get enough of it. I want to reward you with something, but if you don't want it, do you look down on me?"
Facing Zhou's sullenness, Xu Tianyi was obviously at a loss. He didn't know how to explain it at all. At this time, he only explained anxiously, "Madam, Xiao Ke never meant to look down on my aunt. Xiao Ke just felt that this matter It's what Xiaoke should do, and Auntie shouldn't reward Xiaoke for this. If everyone does things for rewards, wouldn't it mean that my whole heart for the young lady has also been stained."
However, Mrs. Zhou wanted to give him a try, so how could she give him this excuse? So she just said, "Your wish is your wish, and my reward is my reward. Is there any relationship between the two? You don't accept me." The reward is to look down on me!"
Hearing that Zhou still insisted on such a statement, Xu Tianyi just sighed softly.
Looking at Xu Tianyi who was in a dilemma, Zhou Yaoniang thought that Xu Tianyi was in this dilemma for her own sake. Finally, she couldn't help but said, "Mother, Mr. Xu is not such a person."
Unexpectedly, she just said a word for Xu Tianyi, and her mother's eyes fell on her face.
Zhou Yaoniang was stared at until her face burned into pieces. She knew that she had exceeded too many rules today.
In the past, she didn't care about anything, but today she took the initiative to see her father and spoke for a young man.
She felt shy, and she couldn't help but swallow the little bit of emotion she had just now, and she stopped speaking for the young man.
At this time, Nanny Lin on the side only comforted Xu Tianyi and said, "Mr. Xu, you deserve this. Don't be polite to Madam and the others. Madam, he really wants to give it to you. If you If you don’t accept it, Madam will really get angry with you.”
Xu Tianyi was caught in a dilemma. He took a look at Zhou's face and then at Nanny Lin.
He finally said in an awkward voice, "Okay, since Madam must give me these benefits, I will accept it temporarily. If Madam needs it one day, I can return it."
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou said impatiently, "I don't need you to return it. Our family is not that poor yet."
After saying this, Mrs. Zhou said impatiently to Xu Tianyi, "Okay, you can go down."
Xu Tianyi listened to Zhou's words, and then he went down.
After Xu Tianyi was led down by Nanny Lin, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but said to her daughter Zhou Yaoniang straight to the point, "Yoniang, have you fallen in love with Xu Tianyi?"
Zhou Yaoniang didn't expect her mother to be so direct. Her face immediately turned red, and she felt very uneasy in her heart.
She didn't dare to speak too bluntly, she just whispered, "My daughter just thinks that Xu Tianyi is actually a decent man. If it doesn't work out, he is not someone who cannot be relied on."
Hearing what Yaoniang said, Mrs. Zhou was somewhat surprised. Although what Yaoniang said didn't seem to be very straightforward, in her understanding, Yaoniang didn't actually have that much subjective awareness about her marriage. It seems that she has always been waiting for her to arrange it, so she actually understands in her heart that her daughter is most likely really interested in that kind of providence.
When she thought of this, Mrs. Zhou felt a little complicated. On the one hand, Xu Tianyi was not actually the son-in-law in her heart, but on the other hand, she also knew that she had no choice, so whether her daughter liked him or not, she had some opinions about Mr. Zhou. The feeling of not knowing the truth.
Zhou Yaoniang didn't know that Mrs. Zhou had so many thoughts in her mind. She just thought that her mother was not feeling well, so she took the initiative to say to Mrs. Zhou, "Mom, please go and rest for a while. My daughter will help you over. You Don’t work yourself too hard.”
Hearing Zhou Yaoniang's words, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but turn her head and look at Zhou Yaoniang and said, "I'm not tired. I still have things to do. If you are tired, you can go back first."
Zhou Yaoniang was somewhat surprised when she heard this, but she still said silently, "Okay."
Then Zhou Yaoniang went down.
After Zhou Yaoniang left, Mrs. Zhou suddenly said to the maid beside her, "Come with me to the warehouse."
Upon hearing this, the maid immediately said, "Okay."
Then Zhou Yaoniang went to the warehouse with the maid.
Besides, Xu Tianyi only went to the warehouse under the leadership of Nanny Lin. When he arrived at the warehouse, Xu Tianyi just stood outside the warehouse. Nanny Lin couldn't help but said to Xu Tianyi when she saw him standing outside. "What are you doing outside? Come in."
Xu Tianyi still only said cautiously, "It's hard to tell clearly under the melon fields and plum trees. Xiao Ke can just wait outside."
However, Granny Lin smiled nonchalantly and said, "What did I say? This is not some melon field. This is your own home. When I take the money from the young lady, won't it all belong to my uncle?"
However, Xu Tianyi immediately said nervously, "I don't dare to say that. This is the property of Uncle Shi and Auntie. I don't dare to covet it at all."
Hearing Xu Tianyi's words, Granny Lin shook her head as if she didn't agree with it, "Oh, I don't even want this valuable thing. You really don't know how to adapt."
While talking, Granny Lin slowly opened the lock. After unlocking it, she took out the key and threw it directly on the table next to her. This so-called warehouse looked nothing like an ordinary study. What's the difference? Apart from a desk and a few Taishi chairs, there are shelves and shelves of bookcases filled with all kinds of books.
Looking at the layout of the room, Xu Tianyi felt that his eyes were dazzled.
At the moment, he had forgotten why he came.
Nanny Lin ignored Xu Tianyi, she just continued to walk forward.
When Xu Tian saw Nanny Lin walking forward, he couldn't help but said, "Nanny Lin, is this a study room?"
Mother Lin smiled and said, "Follow me, and you will know what's going on later."
Seeing Nanny Lin say this, Xu Tianyi naturally stopped talking.
Then he saw that Nanny Lin actually started to move a vase on the bookshelf against the wall. As the vase moved, the bookshelf against the wall soon followed. Then he actually followed Nanny Lin into a dark room. A dark little warehouse.
Looking at this unique warehouse, Xu Tianyi just glanced at the external structure and then closed his eyes.
As Nanny Lin lit the fire, Xu Tianyi could clearly see that the fire was shining brightly in the warehouse.
Nanny Lin smiled and said to Xu Tianyi, "God's will, look at our warehouse, it's quite impressive."
Xu Tianyi nodded, he had to admit that everything in this small warehouse was indeed impressive.
This room is filled with all kinds of boxes and shelves. Those shelves are filled with all kinds of treasures. When you open the box, you will find that the box is also full of gold and silver treasures.
Nanny Lin just smiled and said, "Uncle, Madam asked me to give you ten taels of silver. What do you think?"
Xu Tianyi just lowered his head and said, "Of course I will listen to Madam."
However, Nanny Lin immediately said, "Uncle, how can you listen to Madam on everything? This is not good. Madam's reward is too little. In the past, she rewarded her servants with twenty taels or thirty taels." Yes. I, an old woman, feel aggrieved for my uncle. It’s better to do this. Uncle, just listen to me. I’ll bring you fifty taels. Don’t tell my wife. Anyway, my wife never comes to the warehouse. She She didn’t even think about it, if I fooled her, she wouldn’t know that she’s missing something like this.”
Xu Tianyi was obviously shocked when he heard what Nanny Lin said.
"Nanny Lin, how can you say that? I...I can't do this!"
However, Nanny Lin said nonchalantly, "How can you say that! It's nothing. I do it every time. As long as the people below don't say anything, who knows. Anyway, the key is in my hand." , Madam also has absolute trust in me, why should I make such a fuss?"
Hearing what Nanny Lin said, Xu Tianyi couldn't help but whisper, "Nanny Lin, I can't accept this kind of thing. I don't want the money anymore. You don't have to tell me this anymore."
After saying this, without waiting for Nanny Lin to say anything else, Xu Tianyi seemed to be planning to roll up his sleeves and leave. Upon seeing this, Nanny Lin immediately pulled Xu Tianyi nervously.
