Chapter 33: Steward Xiao is so magnificent
Cauliflower knew that she couldn't fight Mrs. Chu before, but now that she is old and decrepit and ruined, she can't fight. If you have money in your own hands, it is good to move to the town and settle down properly, and buy two more shops to make a living. In the future, even if the stupid girl enters the Chu Mansion and holds her handle, she can't ignore herself. If the silly girl gets married, she will follow the silly girl's house. Thinking of this, Cauliflower nodded and whispered quickly, "Give me a hundred taels first." β
Chu Yueli nodded and stabilized the cauliflower. To be honest, she didn't think that Steward Xiao would bring a hundred taels to the cauliflower. Give twenty taels to the sky, which is considered a great affection. If she can ask for fifty taels, it has to be said that she has the ability to make Steward Xiao willing to take out the silver.
Wang Lezi and Scarface and the others listened to the whispers of Cauliflower and Chu Yueli, and they didn't understand what was going to happen for a long time, but they knew that something big was going to happen.
Just when everyone was puzzled, Steward Xiao's carriage drove to the dilapidated gate and stopped.
Cauliflower hurriedly ran to the door. The leper pushed open the window and looked in. Wang Lezi and others also stretched their necks, wanting to find out.
The little guy who just came to explore the road is named Ronghui. Rong Hui came to the carriage, put down the stool, and supported Steward Xiao.
Steward Xiao is about forty years old, with a decent appearance and a thin figure, but he has a bit of an elegant style, and he looks like he should have read a book.
When Cauliflower was forced to leave the Chu Mansion, Steward Xiao was not a big housekeeper, but now looking at this posture, it seems to be different. As soon as Cauliflower saw Steward Xiao, tears fell. Her heart, which has been slipping day and night, can finally be let go.
Steward Xiao didn't have time to soothe cauliflower's mood, but asked directly, "Where is Miss?" β
Cauliflower immediately wiped away her tears and turned her head to point to Chu Yueli, who was standing next to the chicken coop.
Steward Xiao's shrewd eyes followed Cauliflower's fingers, but when he saw a thin and thin little girl, after peeking at him, she immediately lowered her head and stood timidly next to the chicken coop, with a chicken feather stuck on her head, which looked a little funny.
Steward Xiao's first evaluation of Chu Yueli is that he is a small family and difficult to get into the hall of elegance.
However, it's okay to be in control.
Cauliflower was a little surprised by Chu Yueli's performance, and vaguely felt that she must have her own reasons for doing this. Besides, why is she so much like Hua Nier when she looks at the stupid girl's style? She didn't have time to think about it, so she hurriedly let Steward Xiao go to the courtyard, just as if this was the God of Wealth, the more respectful the better.
Steward Xiao glanced at the bloody ground, didn't move, but said politely: "Please let the young lady come out, let's go." The lord and the lady are waiting to see the young lady, and it is not good to delay. β
Cauliflower didn't know what to do for a while. She could see that Steward Xiao had no intention of taking her away, nor did he mean to give the silver. Cauliflower looked at Chu Yueli and motioned for her to hurry up and find a way. If she can't give her money, she will never let her go to riches to herself!
Chu Yueli sneered in her heart, pretended to be a little naΓ―ve, and asked Cauliflower: "Mother, why are you staring at me?" β
Cauliflower's threatening eyes were stunned, her face twitched, she squeezed out a smile, and said, "You kid, why would my mother stare at you?" Steward Xiao is here to pick you up, are you ...... You clean up and go with Steward Xiao. As he spoke, tears welled up again, "My mother just can't bear you." β
Chu Yueli said: "I can't bear my mother." Mother, I'm not leaving, I'm with you. β
Cauliflower ran directly into the yard, hugged Chu Yueli, and cried bitterly.
This situation falls in the eyes of others, and it is definitely a deep mother-daughter relationship. Only the two people who hugged knew that this was a play dominated by Chu Yueli.
Seeing this, Steward Xiao frowned slightly, then put a trace of worry on his face, walked into the courtyard, away from the crowd that gradually gathered around, and whispered to Chu Yueli: "Miss and the villain are going back to the house to enjoy happiness." β
Chu Yueli said: "My mother can't eat enough here, I don't want to leave my mother." β
A trace of impatience crossed Steward Xiao's eyes, and he said, "The lord and the lady are still waiting for the young lady, and the young lady must not be willful." β
Chu Yueli blinked her confused eyes and asked, "What is willful?" β
Steward Xiao: "......"
Chu Yueli asked, "Can't I really take my mother with me?" β
Steward Xiao nodded.
Chu Yueli asked again: "Then how much silver do you give your mother?" β
Steward Xiao was slightly stunned and asked, "Why do you want to give silver?" β
Chu Yueli snapped her fingers and said, "Just now, Hua Nier was picked up and gave my father thirty taels of silver." If you want to take me, you must also give my mother money. I'm older than Hua Nier, and I'm better looking than her, so you have to give fifty taels. β
Cauliflower tugged at Chu Yueli's sleeve and reminded her that she wanted a hundred taels.
Steward Xiao almost laughed angrily. When he came to pick up this down-and-out young lady, he had to give fifty taels of silver! It doesn't make sense!
Without waiting for Steward Xiao to refuse, Chu Yueli stretched out her hand again and shook it: "No, no, you have to give a hundred taels." One or two less, my mother can't let me go. β
Steward Xiao suddenly felt a pain in his chest.
Cauliflower hurriedly said: "You kid! Mother...... That's not what Niang meant. If you are doing well, your mother will be happy. β
Chu Yueli lowered her head, began to fold her fingers, and said with a tangled expression: "Fifty taels, one hundred taels?" Fifty taels, one hundred taels? β
Steward Xiao hurriedly said, "Fifty two fifty taels." "Look at the little guy," Ronghui, go to the car and get twenty taels. β
Cauliflower hurriedly said: "Didn't you say fifty taels?!" β
Rong Hui took twenty taels and handed them to the housekeeper.
The butler took out a silver ticket of thirty taels from his sleeve, and gave it to the cauliflower with the silver, saying, "No, fifty taels, it's not a lot at all." β
Wang Lezi looked at Yinzi, and his eyes were straight.
Cauliflower held the silver ticket in her arms, and tears welled up instantly. This time, it was definitely tears of joy. She said to Chu Yueli: "When you go to the mansion, you must be filial to the lord and lady, don't cause trouble." β
Chu Yueli glared and nodded, looking seven points well-behaved and three points stupid, and asked knowingly: "Did my mother sell me to their family?" β
Cauliflower was slightly stunned, and then explained: "No, no, no." You are the daughter of Master Chu, so you should go back to the house. β
Chu Yueli shrunk her neck and asked cautiously, "Then will Master Chu beat me?" Looking at Wang Lezi, he continued, "Do you beat him so hard like Dad?" β
Steward Xiao frowned and looked at Wang Lezi.
Wang Lezi finally understood what was happening, and immediately endured the pain, jumped out with grinned teeth, bent over, and smiled flatteringly at Steward Xiao: "Don't listen to the fool, the villain has raised the fool for fifteen years, and he loves her the most, and this silver is not less ......."
Steward Xiao glanced at Wang Lezi with squinted eyes, and asked knowingly, "Who are you?" β
Wang Lezi said: "The villain is the father of the stupid girl. β
Steward Xiao said, "Palm mouth." β
