Chapter Thirty-Eight: Seeing People's Hearts Over Time
The next day, by the time Gentle woke up, the sun had already risen.
"It's over, how did I forget about business." Wen Rou remembered that she said she was going to Yangliushu Hutong yesterday, and jumped out of bed at once.
At this moment, Caiyue pushed open the door and entered the room with the water used for washing.
"Miss, you're awake, the slave is waiting for you to wash!" Caiyue looked at the gentleness who stood by the bed, and a smile flashed in her eyes.
"Caiyue, are you back already?"
In the eyes of gentleness, Caiyue is synonymous with diligence, since she didn't wake herself up, it should be that she went to Yangliushu Hutong alone.
"Miss, the slave saw that you were sleeping too soundly, so I couldn't bear to wake you up."
Caiyue saw that her gentle face was not very good, and said with some drumming in her heart, "Don't worry, the slave maid is very safe this way, and she will come back immediately after delivering the letter." ”
Gently looked at Caiyue's somewhat timid appearance, and most of the anger in her heart disappeared, "Forget it this time, you must not be so good at asserting next time, do you hear?" ”
"Yes! The slave maid remembered the teachings of the young lady. ”
Seeing that Wen Rou was not really angry, Caiyue's tone was a little lighter.
"Okay! In a while, you go and talk to your mother, pack your luggage, and we'll leave tomorrow as soon as I get my things. ”
I can leave here tomorrow and go to a broader world, and my gentle mood is not bad, "By the way, you tell her, pick up valuable things and pack them, don't pack them up, you won't be able to take them away when the time comes." ”
"Yes! The slave waits for you first, and then goes to find my mother after washing. ”
Next, Gentle got dressed with the help of Saizuki, washed up again, and combed her hair.
After she finished her breakfast, Caiyue went to the kitchen with the food box.
The kitchen is always noisy, and Caiyue went to the stove to find her mother, and passed on the gentle words when no one was paying attention.
is really leaving, Aunt Wu is looking forward to and worrying at the same time, but she still nodded, indicating that she knows.
This day felt unusually long, and she really couldn't wait to leave this place that imprisoned her.
In the evening, Aunt Wu came to the gentle room, and she also carried a black baggage.
"Mother, what are you taking?"
Caiyue stretched out her hand to take it, and her hand sank involuntarily.
"Silver."
Aunt Wu didn't have an appetite, and directly said what was in the baggage.
Waiting for Caiyue to put the burden on the table, Aunt Wu untied the burden, which contained a lot of gold and silver ingots, as well as some yellow paper with seals on it.
Could this be the legendary silver ticket? Gently and curiously stared at the paper.
"Miss, all this gold and silver were left by the general and his wife."
Aunt Wu pushed the burden forward to Wen Rou and continued, "Here, there are ten gold ingots, and one ingot is ten taels, a total of 100 taels. Ten silver ingots, one ingot is also ten taels, a total of one hundred taels. Then these silver bills are all worth one hundred taels, there are ten, a total of one thousand taels, you count them. ”
Listening to Aunt Wu gently, the little abacus in her heart had already been opened.
By the time Aunt Wu's words fell, Wen Rou had already calculated that there were a total of ten catties of gold and ten catties of silver in this baggage, no wonder Caiyue went to take it, and her hand was dropped.
"How much silver do you get for a tael of gold?"
"Generally speaking, it is one tael of gold and ten taels of silver, but in the process of exchanging, there must be some more silver to exchange for gold."
Aunt Wu is quite patient with gentleness, no matter what kind of questions she asks, as long as she knows, she will answer them carefully.
"That is, gold is worth more than silver, so what about this silver ticket? Will we still be able to use it when we get to the border? ”
Gently counted the silver tickets, a total of ten, that is, a hundred taels of gold!
"I don't know about this servant, but it can be used in all the prefectures and cities of Dongqing Country."
"It seems that we have one more thing, and we have to exchange the silver before leaving." Gently picked up the gold and silver ingots and checked them in her hand, and decided to exchange all the silver tickets for silver, anyway, she also has a place to put it, don't go to the border and can't exchange it, then it will be a big loss.
Aunt Wu knew that Gentle had a mustard seed space, so she naturally supported her to redeem them all.
You must know that if you put so much money in the bank, you will have to charge a lot of storage fees every year!
"Miss, there is still silver here, please put it away!"
Aunt Wu said, took out a small bag of things from her arms and put it in front of Gentle.
Gently opened it and saw that there was a gold ingot, two silver ingots, a lot of broken silver, and some silver jewelry.
"Aunt Wu, these are all things you worked so hard to save, right? I can't ask for it. ”
Gently wrapped the things and wanted to stuff them into Aunt Wu's hands, but she stopped her.
"Miss, my silver is nothing, it's all rewarded by Madame, don't be too little."
Aunt Wu's sincerity touched Wen Wen's heart.
"That's it, we're leaving tomorrow anyway, it's not safe for you to take this money along the way, I'll save it for me, and when you want to use it, come to me, okay!"
Although Wen Rou still didn't agree to use the silver, she finally accepted it, which also made Aunt Wu feel better.
"Miss, what do you decide to do tomorrow? How can I help? ”
Wen Wen didn't tell Aunt Wu what she was going to do tomorrow, so Aunt Wu didn't know what their specific steps were.
"You don't have to do anything tomorrow."
Speaking of plans, Gentle immediately became serious.
"After my eldest aunt takes Wen Yuhuan out, Caiyue and I will create some chaos tomorrow, and then take advantage of the chaos to go to the big house to get something.
You can wait in the back of the firewood room when the time comes, and we'll come and meet you when we've picked up our things. ”
"Good! So the servant went back first. ”
At this time, Aunt Wu didn't say anything about it, just cooperate with Miss's plan.
"Okay!"
With a gentle wave of her hand, Aunt Wu saluted her, and then walked out of the room.
"Mother, pay attention to Aunt Liu, I always feel that something is wrong with her."
Caiyue sent Aunt Wu to the gate of the courtyard and couldn't help but tell her.
"You feel it too?" Aunt Wu turned around and stroked Caiyue's hair, her eyes were full of relief, "Mother's little girl has grown up." ”
"Mother, you know?"
"I only noticed it in the past two days, and I hid it deep enough."
Speaking of Aunt Liu, a hint of fierceness flashed in Aunt Wu's eyes.
Speaking of which, Aunt Liu entered the General's Mansion two years later than her, and Mrs. has always been generous to her subordinates, and she is very popular, but she didn't expect that in just a few years, she could be bought by the big house.
It's really a road to know the horsepower, and I will see people's hearts for a long time.
