Chapter 49
Liu Lu only cares about ordering Qiuyue to do things, but never promises any benefits.

20 taels of silver is enough for Qiuyue to take the risk to help Jiang Wu once.

Qiuyue didn't directly expose Liu Lu, but pretended to accidentally let Madam Xu bump into these meals, and when Madam Xu asked, she faltered and pretended not to know.

Nanny Xu is so smart, even if Qiuyue doesn't tell, she has plenty of ways to investigate.

So in the afternoon of that day, Liu Lu was called away by Nanny Xu, and went to a place where there was no one else.

"I have always valued your gentleness and calmness, how come you have become this kind of virtue now? After all, it is a good concubine that the young master has married into the door. It is really superior to ordinary concubines. How can you be alone? Slaves behave like this?"

Nanny Xu hated iron for being weak, so she scolded Liu Lukuai for a stick of incense.

Thanks to Liu Lu's use of such a petty means of skimping on food and clothing.

Mother Xu warned earnestly: "You don't think the young master is ignoring her now, but she will return to favor sooner or later. If the young master finds out about these scandalous things you have done, do you think you can avoid heavy punishment?"

Liu Lu lowered her head, with an attitude of admitting her mistake, but her nails dug into her palm at some point, boredom and sting flashed in her eyes.

"I know I'm wrong, mama, I'm so angry because I was scratched by her..."

"I still know what kind of person Jiang is. If you don't provoke her, how can she scratch your face for no reason?"

Xu Nanny said coldly, it can be seen that she was really unhappy, "I called you here in private, I didn't say that you were saving face for you in front of others, so I just covered you this time, I told you there will be no next time .”

After she finished speaking, she left, Liu Lu's eyes were sinister, and she gave a half-respect, "Mommy, go slowly."

After Xu Momo's figure completely disappeared, Liu Lu opened her mouth to insult: "Bah, you're so old."

Want Jiang Wu to be favored again?Go dreaming.

"Sister Liu Lu, Mama is just too confused to see clearly that you are the most important thing in the young master's heart." A few days ago, the maid who helped Liu Lu deliver rotten rice to Jiang Wu popped up, and said with a low voice. Flattering and pleasing to the eye.

Liu Lu calmed down a bit, and asked, "What has Jiang Wu been doing these days?"

"I heard that I stayed in the house all day and read some books, and I didn't make any troubles. It seemed quite leisurely."

"Hmph, she is leisurely, who is she pretending to show?" Liu Lu was full of hostility, she couldn't see Jiang Wu living too comfortably, it was like a thorn in her heart.

"I heard that she still cherishes those broken books very much. Last time I saw her accidentally drop the book into the flower pot, she didn't care about getting dirty, and just wiped the mud on her sleeves. It hurts badly."

"Really?" Liu Lu sneered, and instantly had an idea.

On the other side, Nanny Xu led Qiuyue to visit Jiang Wu's residence in person.

Jiang Wu had expected that she would come, but she still asked, "Why is Mammy here?"

"It's all my fault for my negligence. I didn't know that there was a servant girl arbitrarily advocating to deduct your expenses. I hope Mrs. Jiang is not to blame." Xu Nanny didn't want to offend Jiang Wu, but she didn't shake Liu Lu out.

Liu Lu is an old man served by the Changmo Academy, not only Madam Xu, most people in the Changmo Academy will inevitably favor her.

Jiang Wu has a keen insight, and she didn't mention Liu Lu calmly, she just smiled: "It's okay, the mother is busy with affairs, so it is inevitable that she will miss it."

Nanny Xu smiled apologetically, and asked Qiuyue to quickly take the dinner out of the food box.

Two meat, two vegetables and one soup are the expenses that Jiang Wu should have.

"It's good that you don't blame me. From now on, this girl will be in charge of your recent meals." Madam Xu told Qiuyue who was behind her, "You don't have to do the hard work of transporting carbon ash from the kitchen. A wing room, and daily meals for Mrs. Jiang."

"I would like to follow Madam's orders." Qiuyue was overwhelmed by the flattery, and Mama Xu's arrangement made her work easier.

And all of this is because of Jiang Wu's relationship.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Nanny Xu and Jiang Wu took leave.

Jiang Wu secretly gave Qiuyue a wink, signaling her to stay.

After Madam Xu left, Qiuyue lowered her head and said, "Ms. Jiang."

Jiang Wu put her hands on the table and asked thoughtfully, "How long have you been here?"

"Back to Mrs. Jiang, three years."

"I have something here, and I still need you to help me with it." Jiang Wu leaned into her ear and whispered a few words.

I don't know what she said, Qiuyue stepped back in shock and shook her head, "I can't help you with this matter. If she finds out, she is so small, and I can't stay in the house anymore."

"50 taels."

"Ms. Jiang..."

"100 taels." Jiang Wu pushed another bank note in front of her.

Qiuyue was helpless, "It's really not a matter of money."

Jiang Wu looked at her, and suddenly asked: "I remember, you have been working as a maid for three years in the mansion?"

"Exactly."

"Although Madam Xu has spared you some work, the daily work of a maid is still hard, and she does the dirtiest and tiring work for the meager monthly salary. Don't you want to go one step further?"

Qiuyue's hands folded on her lower abdomen clenched tightly, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Jiang Wu went straight to the point: "After helping me with this matter, I will ask you to come to my side and be a first-class maid with a monthly salary of three taels of silver."

There are not many maids in her room, Hongying is the only one who waits close to her, she thinks it will be easy for her to get another one.

First-class maid...

Not only is the work easy, but it is more than twice as high as her current monthly salary...

Qiuyue couldn't resist such a temptation, she gritted her teeth and agreed.

"Madam Jiang, please wait for news from your servant."

Jiang Wuxian picked up the teacup with her long fingers, and hooked her lips, "Waiting for you."

She always believes that there are no people who cannot be driven by interests. If there are, then the benefits are not enough.

Qiuyue left, and Hongying came out from the inside.

She had been tidying up Jiang Wu's things in the room before, and scratched her head in doubt, "It's strange, master, why is your silk skirt missing?"

"If you don't see it, it's gone, it's just a piece of clothing."

Jiang Wu's indifferent and indifferent attitude made Hongying want to cry without tears, "Master, that's silk from heaven, it's more expensive than slaves."

Jiang Wu put down the medical book, and couldn't help laughing, "Then I will sell the red warbler tomorrow, and see who can sell more expensive red warbler or silk silk."

"You're still making fun of your servants." Hongying stomped her feet in embarrassment, "Your room must have been burglarized, right?"

Jiang Wu didn't seem suspicious at all, and said as a matter of course: "This is the Duke's mansion, how could there be thieves? I'm just thinking about it."

"Your heart is too big..." Hongying was helpless, but she couldn't say anything, so she had to retreat first.

The room was quiet and Jiang Wu was the only one left, she seemed to have nothing to care about other than sitting quietly and reading a book.

After half an hour passed, the peeping figure outside the window gradually disappeared...

A deep coldness appeared on Jiang Wu's face, and she put down the medical book that she didn't read a single word in.
