Chapter 399: Did You Do It Right?
Guo Laosan was illiterate, Chu Shenyao personally wrote the letter of resignation, asked him to press his handprint, and ordered Wen'an to give him two hundred taels of silver tickets.
Du Rongzhi put the letter of resignation in the hand of the embroidery girl, "You take this book of resignation, and in the future, you will completely cut it off with that bastard......"
The embroidered girl had mixed feelings, and pulled the embroidered aunt to kneel on the ground, "Mrs. Song and Prince Chu's great kindness, we can't repay it for the rest of our lives...... In the next life, I will also repay you for the grace of reconstruction! As he spoke, he was going to kowtow to them.
Du Rongzhi hurriedly stretched out her hand to support the embroidery girl, and smiled softly, "If you want to thank you, thank Gongzi Chu." If it weren't for his money and efforts today, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly...... As for me, I didn't do anything......"
Xiu Gu shook her head and said seriously, "You and Master Chu are our life-savers......" She looked at her mother and said gratefully, "If it weren't for your support, Mrs. Song, my mother wouldn't be ruthless...... Reconcile with him, you are our great benefactor! β
Yuan Yuan behind him listened and sighed silently.
The two of them are now out of the sea of suffering, but when the master comes back, I heard that the young lady is purging others and leaving ......
Thinking of Song Zixun's cold face, Yuan Yuan couldn't help but feel a little sorry for herself.
I heard Chu Shenyao smile and said softly, "What the embroidered girl said...... My sister-in-law contributed the most to this matter, and I was just icing on the cake. β
"Young Master Chu is humble." Du Rongzhi remembered, "Those two hundred taels, I'll make people when I get back-"
Chu Shenyao waved his hand and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to be polite to me...... The road is uneven, and I am just doing my part. β
The tone was so sincere that Du Rongzhi couldn't refuse.
The embroidered girl said with a straight face, "Young Master Chu, although I haven't read a book, I also know the truth that the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring...... What's more, you still have such a great kindness to us! I don't have much skills, but I still have some strength. Laundry and cooking, carrying water and chopping wood, cleaning the house, you can do anything...... Aunt Xiu and I are willing to be slaves and maids for the rest of our lives, and repay her father for the money he blackmailed you! β
Chu Shenyao frowned, and was about to open his mouth to refuse, but saw Du Rongzhi secretly winked at him.
Chu Shenyao was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and said, "I just settled down in Shanyin County, and there is still a shortage of cooks in the house, if you are willing-"
"The slave is willing!" The embroidered girl and her mother hurriedly agreed happily, "That embroidered girl ......"
Chu Shenyao smiled, "Isn't she still studying in the women's school now?" Just let her keep reading...... I have heard that female students have a good career out, and no matter what they do in the future, I believe that there is no problem in supporting themselves. β
He paused, "As for you, you only need to be in charge of three meals a day for everyone in the mansion." There aren't many people in my familyβbesides me, there's also the housekeeper...... There are only seven or eight people in total, can you do this errand? β
The embroidery girl nodded again and again, "It's done, it's done!" In addition to cooking, slaves and maids can also do some chores......"
Chu Shenyao smiled, "Someone will do that...... In the future, you can take your daughter to live directly in the house, and you can take care of three meals a day and one or two pieces of silver a month, do you think it will be successful? β
The embroidered girl waved her hand hurriedly, "You've been good enough for us...... How can we ask for your money again! β596
Du Rongzhi on the side pursed her lips and smiled, "If you give it to you, you will take it, and it will be the same to return it to him when you have enough in the future." β
Chu Shenyao paused, swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and nodded, "Sister-in-law is right. β
The embroidery girl thought about it in her heart, although she didn't know how long it would take to pay back the two hundred taels a month, but there was hope for it, so she was relieved and said solemnly, "Don't worry, my embroidery girl's popularity is very good, and the master of the embroidery workshop has also praised it...... Let her make a few more embroideries if she is fine...... Will pay back the money owed to you as soon as possible! β
Aunt Xiu nodded quickly when she heard this.
It seemed that he was really anxious to get the two hundred taels......
Chu Shenyao had to agree in a depressed manner.
After everything was said and done, Aunt Xiu took her mother, Aunt Cui, who had changed back to her maiden name, to go down to the medicine, and Chu Shenyao couldn't help but ask Du Rongzhi, "Why did Mrs. Sister-in-law want me to keep Aunt Xiu's mother and daughter?" β
Du Rongzhi smiled lightly, "If you don't keep them, do you want to let them sleep on the streets?" Seeing that Chu Shenyao pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something, she continued, "What's more, Chu Gongzi also saw it...... That Guo Laosan is a scoundrel at all, even if Chu Gongzi is kind and willing to give them some more money to let them settle down, it is difficult to guarantee that Guo Laosan will not come to the door again...... When the time comes, how can the two weak women resist? β
Chu Shenyao couldn't help but be embarrassed, "It's still Mrs. Sister-in-law who is thoughtful." β
Du Rongzhi smiled, "Women in this world have a harder life than men, and I can't help but think about it...... But if they stay in the Chu Gongzi Mansion in the future, then Guo Laosan just wants to find trouble, and he has to weigh it in his heart. β
Chu Shenyao couldn't help laughing and said, "Speaking of which, wouldn't my sister-in-law even more should bring them into her own mansion, and when the time comes, Guo Laosan will definitely say that he will not dare to go to the county master's house to ask for someone!" β
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the smile on Du Rongzhi's face pause.
Chu Shenyao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly apologized, "I'm used to it...... Please don't blame my sister-in-law. β
Du Rongzhi waved her hand indifferently, "Actually, what you said is not unreasonable," she smiled helplessly, "But I have already made such a big disturbance today...... Even if they settle their mother and daughter, they must first discuss with their son......"
Chu Shenyao raised his eyebrows, "Sister-in-law is afraid that Brother Song is unwilling?" He smiled disappreciatively, "Brother Song is not a pedantic person, he will only praise his sister-in-law's righteous deeds, how can he not be happy?" β
Du Rongzhi pursed her lips and suddenly asked softly, "What do you think...... Am I doing the right thing? β
"Of course." Chu Shenyao said, "Guo Laosan gambles like his life and disregards his wife and daughter, this kind of person will never know repentance." It was wise for the embroidered girl to reconcile with him. Mrs. Sister-in-law made a decision and spoke up righteously, which is even more admirable. β
Du Rongzhi bent the corners of her lips embarrassedly, "How can I be so great as you say?" It's just that I was angry at the time, and I felt that Guo Laosan was really hateful, so I didn't want to say those words without thinking about it......"
Even in hindsight, she felt that she was too bold at the time......
But I heard Chu Shenyao say seriously, "That also shows that Mrs. Sister-in-law has an upright temperament and is not a worldly person." He said with a straight face, "I have also seen many people over the years, such as the resentful couples like Aunt Xiu, and there are countless of them. If everyone can be as transparent as Mrs. Sister-in-law, I am afraid that there will be many fewer tragedies in the world. β
