Chen Shujun closed the door, pulled Taoye inside with a confused expression, and then untied the purse from her waist.
"open to take a look!"
Taoye opened her purse under Chen Shujun's expectant eyes, and inside was a fifty-tael silver note.
"This is?"
Taoye looked up and asked.
"I had people try to type out some of the jewelry patterns you drew for me last time. They were sold out in just two days and I made a lot of money!"
"This is your share!"
Chen Shujun looked at Tao Ye with admiration and appreciation.
"This is too much, and slave..."
"Don't refuse, it's better if you have money with you!"
Chen Shujun gently interrupted Tao Ye's words.
"My slave, thank you Miss Chen!"
Taoye wanted to leave some money. If she found her mother and brother in the future and they were having a hard time, she could help. Even if she couldn't find a few people, if she had the chance to go out, more money would be good. OK
Seeing the sincerity on Chen Shujun's face, she accepted the kindness.
"Don't be too happy, I'm going to ask you for a few more pictures!"
Chen Shujun pulled Taoye to sit at the table and took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone from her bag.
"Then slave, please draw some more bracelet styles!"
Taoye would not refuse, so she picked up the pen and thought about it for a while, then started painting with concentration.
I drew three pictures in a row, and when I was about to draw the fourth one, I was stopped by Chen Shujun: "That's all for today. It's getting late. You're feeling better, so go and rest early!"
The temple was quiet, and everyone in the courtyard was sleeping well.
The next day, as soon as the morning bell rang, Taoye quickly got up, washed up, and went to serve Gu Yunqing.
"Aunt Yang is just resting on the side. Madam, we are here!"
When Taoye walked in, Mrs. Yang was standing in the room with a hesitant look on her face.
Mrs. Yang was pregnant with her child, and Taoye didn't want her to have any trouble with Madam. Moreover, Aunt Yang's face was not much better than that of her who had just recovered from a serious illness.
"You go back to your room first. I will ask the maid to call you when you go out!"
When Gu Yunqing heard Tao Ye's words, he turned around in front of the dressing table and glanced at Yang briefly.
"yes!"
Yang lowered his head and retreated.
"Madam, the old lady is here to call for help!"
As soon as Taoye inserted the last jade comb, Biyun ran in and said.
"Let's go now!"
"lady!"
Taoye helped Gu Yunqing out of the door, and Yang was already in front of her without waiting for anyone to call her.
"Where is mother going?"
Yesterday, Mrs. Cao said that she was going to kneel in the main hall for an hour today, but now, under her feet, there was no way to the main hall.
"My mother doesn't know that early this morning, my grandmother heard from the novice monk who delivered the fast food that a new Buddha statue was cast on the mountainside. It is very tall. And if you go up and stand in front of the Buddha image at this time, you will feel as if you are bathing in the Buddha's light!"
Rong Shu, who was holding Cao's arm, replied with a happy face.
Halfway up the mountain? Taoye glanced at Aunt Yang.
She could tell that Aunt Yang's steps were a little sloppy at the moment, and she couldn't stand climbing the steps at all.
"What the second lady said is that the weather is so good today, and the old lady and madam will definitely be able to bathe in the Buddha's light!"
Luo Shi excused himself, his eyes sliding across Yang's pale face.
Gu Yunqing suffered from an illness during confinement and could not walk for a long time, so when he reached the foot of the mountain, his waist was extremely sore.
When Taoye saw it, she hurriedly took advantage of Cao and others to rest on the stone bench at the foot of the mountain, motioned to Biyun and Bixiao to block them, and lowered her body to massage Gu Yunqing.
After pressing the button for half an hour, Gu Yunqing felt much better, and Cao was also helped up by Luo Shi and Rong Shu.
"Auntie!"
After walking this distance, Yang's body felt a little unbearable. Therefore, just after walking two steps, everyone heard Lu Yun's exclamation.
"What's wrong with Aunt Yang? Are you tired?"
Roche looked worried.
"I'm fine!"
Seeing Mrs. Cao's bored and cold gaze at the top, Mrs. Yang held the maid's hand and whispered with a pale face.
"Grandma, Shu'er sees that Aunt Yang is indeed a little tired, why not let the maid hold her up!"
Rong Shu suggested softly.
"Ms. Gu, take care of me!"
Because they were serving the Cao family, Luo Shi and Rong Shu did not bring any maids with them today. The Cao family did not like their son as a concubine, so naturally they would not ask the maids behind them to serve such a person.
Taoye's heart tightened.
"Why don't you let Miss Taoye go over and help your sister!"
Sure enough, Luo Shi's voice sounded from above.
Aunt Luo had ill intentions towards Aunt Yang's child, and she had tried to kill herself several times. Today, she most likely wanted to kill two birds with one stone.
Now the only way to break the situation is to let Aunt Yang tell her that she is pregnant, but it happens that Aunt Yang is weak-tempered, so at this time she only dares to speak.
"Taoye, go ahead!"
Gu Yunqing didn't want to argue with her mother-in-law about these trivial matters, so she tilted her head and gave instructions.
"Slave, you obey!"
Taoye lowered her head, hiding the thoughts in her eyes, and respectfully walked over to support Aunt Yang.
Ms. Cao turned around and continued to walk up, holding their hands.
Gu Yunqing followed, and just as Yang was about to follow, he found that his arm was being grabbed.
He looked at Tao Ye next to him with confusion.
"My aunt is not feeling well. She shouldn't be so pushy. If something happens on the way up the mountain, not only will you regret it, but the old lady will also feel that you ruined her important event of worshiping the Buddha. She will dislike you and even implicate the third young master!"
"Last time, the slave offered clothes to the Buddha, but it disgusted the old lady to this day!"
Taoye held Yang's hand, waited a few steps away from the people above, lowered her head and spoke quietly and quickly.
She had just scanned her surroundings, and there was nothing unusual for the time being. She thought Aunt Luo and the others would be a little higher up if they wanted to take action.
After hearing this, Mrs. Yang paused. She knew that the embroiderer was beaten half to death. She heard that it was the madam and the fifth young master who personally went to the Shou'an Hall to bring the girl out.
Moreover, he would also involve his own son. A look of struggle flashed across Yang's face.
"Auntie, please keep walking, don't miss the moment, my servant will help you!"
Sensing the appraising gaze from above, Taoye deliberately raised her voice and spoke.
Yang blankly walked up two more steps with Tao Ye's support.
Tao Ye lowered her head, with a look of anxiety on her slightly drooped face. In order to ensure that things happen, Aunt Luo and Miss Er will not wait for Aunt Yang to be too tired to give birth. They must have some tricks on the way.
But the person she was supporting was still hesitating and struggling, and his face was getting paler. After walking more than ten stone steps, it was almost she and Lu Yun who were holding the person up. Tao Ye's body was already It was just right, and there was some cold sweat on her forehead, which covered up her impatience.
"lady……"
After walking a few more steps, the person next to him finally spoke, and Taoye breathed a sigh of relief.
