After Li Qiusui finished explaining, he signaled Cuiping to give Xiaolu two taels of silver.
"Miss, I can't have this." Xiaolu took two steps back and waved his hands to refuse.
Li Qiu Sui glared at him, "Just take it and stop talking about it!"
Just wave people away.
Li Qiu Sui asked Cuiping to take his money back. In the blink of an eye, the two hundred taels of silver were only a few dozen taels left. Fortunately, there was no need for a large amount of money in the future.
Xiao Lu also agreed that she would come back in two days to pick up the pills and send them over, and they could be sold anywhere in Jimin Hall, as long as she paid a lot of money.
The day after tomorrow is the apprenticeship ceremony organized by Mrs. Zheng. I have to go to the master in person, and I also need to talk to the master about Cuizhu's younger brother.
Li Qiusui rubbed his chin and thought about something in his yard. He didn't know that something was going on with the servants in Zheng Mansion outside the yard.
There are more than ten members of Guang Cuiyin's family in the mansion. Her father, Liu Quan, ran away for several months before returning to Zheng's mansion to rest for less than half a month. Then he was taken away by the people sent by Mr. Zheng. Living.
"What's going on with you? I want to see the master. Who can be convinced by taking someone for no reason like this? I've been running around for the Zheng Mansion all these years, and I deserve hard work not to mention credit. I've ended up like this. Don’t be afraid of chilling the hearts of our servants.”
Liu Quan was held down by several people and tied up directly by Wuhua Da. He was worthy of being a person who has been out and about all year round. Even in the current situation, he still spoke in an orderly manner.
Zheng Fu is the chief steward of the Zheng Mansion. Master Zheng leaves it to him to take care of people.
Seeing people making noises, there were so many servants watching the excitement around. Because in the Zheng Mansion, they loudly discussed the rights and wrongs of the master's family, and the feud between each other could not be hidden from Zheng Fu's eyes.
"Liu Quan, you can be regarded as a decent person, but you look ugly like this! Master asked me to tell you..."
Zheng Fu walked up to Liu Quan and whispered a few words. Liu Quan suddenly turned pale and changed his previous arrogant attitude.
"Zheng... Brother Zheng, I have something to tell you about these things... It's really not my fault..."
Zheng Fu raised his hand to interrupt him, "If you still want to save the lives of your family, just go to the government office to confess your crime and tell the governor everything you know. You can only be considered an insignificant marginal figure. After atoning for his sins, at most he will be exiled thousands of miles away, while his family and in-laws can still live in Zhuangzi."
Zheng Fu did not lower his voice to let his servants hear these words, why the Liu family has fallen so far.
"I just said something is wrong with Liu Shen. His mother-in-law can command the maids. Didn't you see that the gold bracelet on his wife's wrist is as thick as my little finger? The one on his head is even bigger. The concubine of the Zheng family has given birth to the wife at the head of the room."
The speaker was also a steward of the Zheng Mansion, and lived in the same courtyard as Liu Quan's family. The two families were still related, not close relatives. This time, his family did not suffer disaster, and it was still the reason for the disharmony between the two families.
On weekdays, his mother and daughter-in-law often murmured that he was useless when he saw that he was well-fed, well-dressed, and well-dressed in gold and silver. Now, could he have anything good to say about Liu Quan?
An acquaintance came over to answer the question. This person had a good relationship with Liu Quan. I was afraid that people would think of him later and be anxious to add insult to injury and make his position clear!
He said, "That's right. We can take care of Madam's affairs more slowly. If his family says something to you, please try to take care of it a little more slowly. I can take away your job tomorrow."
Another good guy came over and said, "It's okay for the older generation, as long as they eat, drink and dress well. The little girl in his family is so bad. Why do you try to work as an errand next to the young master? Isn't it just to climb high? Go! If the young master hadn’t seen through it with his fiery eyes and kicked people out of the yard, there might have been more trouble."
This man had little contact with Liu Quan. He also helped the Zheng Mansion manage part of the industry outside. He was a peer of the same profession. He knew everything about Liu Quan's family. Seeing that Liu Quan was in serious trouble, he couldn't wait to tell everything in his stomach. pour out.
"I heard that the girl in the second bedroom is also restless. The second lady had said earlier that she would be the second wife for the second young master."
Someone else came over and chimed in, and for a moment it was as lively as a vegetable market.
When things got to this point, it was almost over. As soon as Zheng Fu raised his hand, all the servants below him were silent. With another wave of his hand, the people he brought suppressed Liu Quan and his family and walked out of the house.
After Zheng Fu led the people away, there were waves of whispers among the servants.
Cuizhu watched Cuiyin being held down on the shoulders by two rough women, and felt happy. Even though her stepmother was not a thing, she was indeed a brainless idiot who couldn't think of such torture methods.
The girl said that Cuiyin was after her. In fact, she was a person with a dark heart and a rotten lung. She did bad things not to get any benefits, but just out of spite.
Cuizhu turned around and told Li Qiu Sui what was going on outside, "Girl, do you think Cui Yin's father really committed a crime?"
Li Qiusui raised his eyes, "It doesn't matter whether it's true or false. Master Zheng wants to deal with him, but this is true."
Liu Quan helps Zheng Mansion manage some of the outside business. If Master Zheng has no control over it, what can he do to restrain these managers?
Furthermore, he has been dealing with all kinds of people all year round. Even if he doesn’t use some shady means, he won’t be able to manage the business so well. In short, if he wants to deal with you, he will definitely be able to catch your little one. braid.
Cuizhu sighed, "It depends on how Cuiyin's family behaves. How can his father be a good person outside? If the business is good, he is just using the Zheng family's sign as a tiger skin. I saw it once, a businessman When the master of the house saw Liu Quan, he almost bowed to the ground."
Cuiping sighed as he listened, "It's better to be low-key and be kind to others than to be enemies everywhere."
Cuizhu thought of the old in-laws of Cuiyin's family who were later implicated and took the initiative to expose her family's evil deeds, feeling both happy and a little bored.
Who says it’s not!
The next day, Li Qiusui asked Cuizhu to go to the medical clinic outside to help buy some medicinal materials.
Tomorrow she will officially become a disciple. Although Mrs. Zheng helped prepare six items for the apprenticeship ceremony, she did not express her feelings that it was not a matter. She did not have a few taels of silver on hand. She could not get the famous calligraphy and painting, antiques, etc., so she pinched a few pills. Wanzi, this is not tiring, the main thing is to save money!
The apprenticeship scene that Old Man Yang created was much better than her.
After explaining, Li Qiusui went to school.
Meeting Zheng Shu on the road, they greeted each other and walked together.
Zheng Hui came out of nowhere, so the twosome turned into a threesome.
When they arrived at the school, the three of them sat down next to each other.
Zheng Hui was about to speak but stopped.
This girl looked annoyed, she didn't speak, and Li Qiusui just pretended not to notice.
The teacher came in and started a day of teaching.
