Chapter 26 Reducing Expenses

"Miss, you're finally back, you were worried about us last night." The worry between Cuiya's eyebrows instantly turned into joy, and the hanging heart also fell back into her stomach.

Ye Zi and Wangcai also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Ye Zi said loudly: "Miss, you must have been hungry just when you came back, right?" I'll fry a side dish or two for you. ”

Wangcai agreed, and also walked to the small kitchen together: "I'll help." ”

Song Mingyue glanced at the worried looks of the three of them, and suddenly felt warm in her heart, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about it in the future." ”

Cui Ya nodded obediently, but said that it was impossible not to worry about it, this was the first master who was so good to her, and she seemed to regard Song Mingyue as her sister in her heart.

She muttered, leaned over to Song Mingyue's side and whispered, "Miss, have you heard?" Recently, there have been a lot of displaced people in the city, and the lord will give porridge relief in the near future. ”

Song Mingyue raised her eyebrows, no wonder people up and down the house were talking about this matter.

She was not surprised that Song Zhitian wanted to give porridge, after all, Song Zhitian was a petty official in the county, and he would definitely have to bear some responsibility for natural and man-made disasters.

"It's just that Madame's face is not happy, Miss, you still don't touch her moldy head recently."

Song Mingyue felt a warm current flowing through her heart, and it felt good to be worried, "Well, I know." ”

Seeing her agree, Cui Ya smiled reassuringly.

Half an hour later, Song Mingyue put down the dishes and chopsticks, took a sip of tea, and wiped her mouth with an elegant atmosphere.

Her face was calm and she said, "Let's go to the hospital together today." ”

In the event of a natural disaster, it is difficult to say what the situation in the city is, but the medical center will definitely become a more crowded place recently.

In this case, it is better for her to do something in her small way.

The three of Ye Zi also thought of this situation and did not refuse.

However, as soon as Song Mingyue and the four of them walked out of Huayu Pavilion, they bumped into Li Xiufeng, which made her cold brows frown.

Li Xiufeng glanced at the posture of several of them, and asked casually, "Yue'er, are you going out?" ”

Song Mingyue raised her head slightly, giving her a look of understanding, as if to say that this is not obvious enough?

Li Xiufeng felt embarrassed, her face suddenly turned blue and red, and she secretly spit out a few mouthfuls of turbidity to calm her mood, and at the same time her hatred for her became stronger.

When she looked up, she had regained her dignified smile, "Actually, I came here because your father asked us to come to the living room to talk." ”

Song Mingyue sneered, probably guessing what it was for, "Are you sure it's us?" And not you? ”

If it weren't for this drought, I guess no one in this family would remember her existence, right?

Li Xiufeng's face turned cold, and she lost the false smile she had before, "If you don't want to go over, I will show you to the master." ”

Scold?

Is this threatening her? But she doesn't eat it.

"Who says I won't go?" After speaking, Song Mingyue walked directly past her coldly, never looking at her from beginning to end.

Li Xiufeng turned to look at the slender back, the hand hidden in the sleeve was clenched, and she didn't even notice the pain in the nail trap flesh.

She said viciously, "Let's go!" ”

on the living room.

Song Mingyue found a random place to sit down, poured herself a cup of tea and began to drink it, not looking at Song Zhitian with a black face at all.

After the expiration date, Song Zhitian's face softened a little, and said, "You should all have heard about the recent drought, right?" ”

"Hmm." Song Shiqi nodded, and when her eyes passed over Song Mingyue, she glanced at it with bad intentions.

She is still wearing a veil, all thanks to Song Mingyue, and she can't even participate in several tea parties this month!

Song Mingyue naturally felt her gaze, but it was directly filtered out.

This made Song Shiqi even more depressed and irritable.

Li Xiufeng responded lightly, knowing Song Zhitian's character, and knowing that if he hadn't had something unspeakable, he wouldn't have made such a formal scene today.

"Master, are you encountering any difficulties? If you ask, if there is anything I can do to help, I will help. ”

Song Zhitian sighed wistfully, "It's still Madame who understands me." ”

Li Xiufeng picked up the handkerchief to cover her mouth and smiled, even if she is almost forty years old now, her every move is charming.

Song Zhitian was also stunned when he saw it, and the smile on his face gradually increased, with such a person who knew him and knew him to accompany him, what could he ask for in this life!

"Well, the severity of the disaster is beyond imagination, and our family will start distributing soup kitchens from today, but ......," he said, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed.

Although he is an official, he does not have much savings, and the expenses of the government are relatively large, so he does not have much money at all.

It's okay to give porridge for a short time, but if it takes a long time, even the Song Mansion can't bear it.

Li Xiufeng immediately understood the meaning of his words, and hurriedly said, "Master, are you worried that the savings in the house are not enough to support it?" ”

Song Zhitian glanced at her appreciatively and pondered for a while, "From today onwards, the expenses of the house will be reduced, the monthly silver of each room will be reduced by half, and the daily purchase will also be reduced by half, do you have any objections?" ”

Li Xiufeng shook her head, the money she had saved in the past few days was enough for her to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, and there would be her own small stove in each room, and she was not worried that she would be really hungry.

"The lord cares about the people of Limin, and everyone will be grateful to the lord when they know it."

Song Zhitian nodded with a smile, enjoying her words very much, and at the same time looked at Song Mingyue, here she almost agreed.

Song Mingyue noticed his gaze and said indifferently: "I have no opinion, I haven't seen a single cent of Yueyin in my hands over the years." ”

Song Zhitian listened, his face that was still red just now suddenly turned a sauce color, and he glanced at Li Xiufeng.

Seeing this, Li Xiufeng's heart jumped, and she secretly scratched her eyes at the calm person not far away, and immediately explained: "Yue'er and Qi'er's moonsilver have been kept by me all these years, I didn't expect Yue'er's opinion to be so big." ”

After hearing this, Cuiliu echoed: "Yes, Madame treats the two young ladies equally, but I didn't expect to be disliked." ”

Song Mingyue's cold eyes turned into a sword and fell on her body, she had endured this subordinate for a long time!

The previous miserable end couldn't help but be caused by Li Xiufeng, if there was no such person, she would not be so bleak.

She sneered, and the corners of her mouth hung with a thick mockery: "Cuiya, you go and bring me the clothes that I pressed under the box." ”

"Yes." Cui Ya naturally knew what she wanted to do, and when she saw her breathing evil anger, her hands and feet became much sharper.

After a while, she went and returned, with a dilapidated wooden box in her hand.

"Turn it on."

Suck!

In an instant, there was a puff of dust in the living room, and everyone looked at the contents of the box curiously, and everyone was directly dumbfounded.

Even if everyone knew that she had a bad life before, she didn't expect that the clothes she wore were washed white and had various patches, none of which were complete.

When it was said that the garment was for a beggar, no one would doubt it.
