Ling Chu didn't pay attention to the second lady's anger at all.
She has no feelings for this family.
As for what she said just now, she said it to everyone on purpose.
Although the Ling Mansion was demoted to a commoner and could no longer serve as an official, life would still go on.
Her father and her second and third uncles can either do business or choose to do accounting and other work. The eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother are not young anymore, so they should also take some responsibilities.
As for the female relatives in the house, they can make needlework and needlework, which can help to some extent.
A big family, with hands and feet, as long as they work harder, they will never die of hunger.
But if you are still holding on to your airs and can't let go of your figure, then wait for the northwest wind.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Ling Hao sighed, "Grandma, the eldest sister is right. As long as our family works together, we will be able to overcome the current difficulties. We all have skills and feet, and we can always find ways to make money. "
Mrs. Tai always valued her eldest grandson, and nodded happily after hearing this, "Brother Hao is right. As long as the family works together, the current predicament will be able to be overcome safely. From now on, everyone will take turns doing the work in the house... …”
The matters decided by the Grand Madam were never allowed to be refuted. Even if the Second Madam was dissatisfied, she could only endure it.
The second girls, Ling Hui and Ling Qing, gathered around the Madam with smiles, saying that they would work hard to make more female celebrities, and when they made money, they would buy maids for the Madam and come back to serve her.
The madam was made to laugh from ear to ear.
Ling Chu didn't pay much attention to this. He just made an excuse and took the two maids back to her yard.
Liu Xiangju and Xia Zhi both knelt down and solemnly bowed to Ling Chu, officially treating her as their master.
Ling Chu did not refuse, "From now on, you can stay with me with peace of mind. You two are my maids. From now on, you only need to work in my yard. As for the other people in the house, don't pay much attention to them."
What happened in the flower hall earlier was seen by the two maids. Although I had doubts in my mind, I didn’t dare to ask any more questions.
Although these two are serving as maids for the first time, they also know that the most important thing in being a servant is loyalty, and servants must abide by whatever the master says.
When Ling Chu saw the two of them agreeing, he didn't say much. After arranging a place for them to stay, she went back to her room to rest.
But not long after, Liu Xiangju came to her anxiously.
"Girl, can I ask you for two days' leave first, and wait until I go back to finish my mother's funeral affairs, and then come back as an errand?"
Liu Xiangju didn't know that Ge Shi was dead and her ghost was taken away by Ling Chu.
Ling Chu didn't intend to let her know.
Although Ge Shi is her mother, she is now a puppet soul. If she gets close to Liu Xiangju and lets her be contaminated with yin energy, her body and luck will be damaged.
Although Ge Shi loved this daughter, as a mother, she did not want her child to be harmed in the slightest.
Ge Shi was dead and Liu Xiangju wanted to take care of her funeral affairs, so naturally Ling Chu would not stop her.
That Liu Dongluo was a gambler who drove Ge to death, but I don't know if he arranged for her funeral.
Seeing that there was nothing going on around her, Ling Chu simply asked Xia Zhi to follow her back to help.
"Take these two hundred taels back, settle your mother's funeral affairs, and then come back as an errand."
Liu Xiangju didn't expect that Ling Chu would approve her leave and give her a sum of money.
She didn't want Ling Chu's money, but thinking that now she was penniless and her father had lost all her money at home, she hesitated, wiped her tears, and took the banknote.
"Thank you, girl. I will treat this money as a loan from the girl. However, I don't have the money to pay it back. Can it be deducted from my monthly payment in the future?"
"You don't need to pay back this money. It's a memorial gift from me. Just take it with peace of mind."
Xia Zhi originally followed Ling Chu and had been feeling uneasy, but at this moment, her heart suddenly calmed down.
The girl is a good person. Not only did she rescue them from the traffickers, but she also took her and Liu Xiangju as maids.
Liu Xiangju's mother died, and the girl paid so many tributes.
She believes that as long as she works well in the future and serves the good girl faithfully, the girl will not treat her badly.
Ling Chu didn't know that he had been given the good guy card by the maid.
After the two maids left, while there was nothing to do in the mansion, Ling Chu went to bed after eating, woke up and continued eating, and after eating, he lay in the yard to bask in the sun.
This body of hers still needs to add more yang energy.
After leaving the house the next day, Ling Chu went to the medical clinic to prepare some health-preserving medicine.
After coming out of the medical clinic, Ling Chu looked at the few hundred taels of silver notes left in his hand and sighed.
In addition to the 3,000 taels of gratitude given by Prince Jing's Mansion and the silver rewarded by the system, she had prepared a month's worth of health medicine, and only had more than 3,000 taels left.
This money is really worthless.
It seems that if she wants to continue living well, she must not only work hard to accumulate merit, but also make more money.
After returning home, Ling Chu drank some medicine and was about to take a rest when Xia Zhi ran back in a panic.
"Girl, it's bad, Liu Xiangju is missing."
Ling Chu frowned and saw Xia Zhi holding a chair and breathing heavily. He must have run back without stopping all the way.
"Drink some water first and take a rest." Ling Chu didn't ask in a hurry, but poured a glass of water for her.
Xia Zhi was running and his mouth was dry. He didn't hesitate when he heard the words. He reached out to take it and drank it in a few sips.
Putting down the tea cup, Xia Zhi still looked anxious, "Girl, Liu Xiangju is gone, what should I do?"
"Please tell me slowly what's going on."
Xia Zhi's expression was anxious and uneasy, "Originally, Xiangju and I were burning paper in the mourning hall, but she found that the paper at home was running out, so she planned to go to the street to buy some joss stick paper money.
But not long after she walked out of the door, I thought I heard her scream.
I felt something was wrong at the time, but when I went out, I didn't see her.
I asked around, and no one saw Liu Xiangju going out, but someone said that they seemed to see a carriage passing by, but they didn't see clearly who was sitting in the carriage. "
After taking a breath, Xia Zhi continued, "I was worried that something might happen to Xiangju, so I asked around at the nearby incense and candle shops, but the shopkeepers all said they had never seen her."
"Xiangju is gone, have you told her father?"
Xia Zhi shook her head, "No, Xiangju's father was not at home. When something happened to Xiangju's mother, the neighbors didn't know. It was only after we invited people to help build the mourning hall that everyone knew that Xiangju's mother was dead.
According to the aunts who came to help, Xiangju's father had not been seen for several days. "
Seeing that nothing could happen after further questioning, Ling Chu had no choice but to go to the Liu family to see for himself.
When they arrived at Liu's house, they didn't see Liu Dongluo, only two aunts who were close friends of Ge's family during his lifetime. They couldn't bear to see Liu Xiangju taking care of Ge's funeral alone, so she came over to help.
Ling Chu asked around, but no one saw Liu Xiangju.
The person who saw the carriage passing by saw that Ling Chu was asking carefully and hesitated before telling her that the carriage passing near Liu's house seemed to be Hu Batian's carriage.
Ling Chu: If we don’t reward the tickets, we will drink the northwest wind.
