Time passed day by day.In the past few days, Zhao Keren was in a very good mood, because she finally sold the other courtyard in the suburbs, and she sold it for a good price.She sold that other courtyard for a good price of 4 taels of silver, and now, in addition to the 5 taels of silver for the white jade Guanyin statue, she can still keep 1 taels of silver for emergency.This time, she was quite satisfied with Xianyun's handling ability.Now, she is not afraid of being discovered at that time, and always thinks that it will be good to collect money to buy it back when the time comes.

Zhao Keran hadn't seen Situ Xu in the past few days, but one morning, when she woke up, she found a title deed by the side of her bed, which was the title deed of the other courtyard in Zhao Keren's outskirts.However, she didn't know how much Situ Xu spent, and she didn't know how to return the money to him.Moreover, no matter how she asked Qin Xiang and Shi Xiang, they refused to answer.In the end, the matter was over.

Time flies, and tomorrow is Mrs. Qin's birthday banquet.

In Xia Yuyuan——

Zhao Keren was holding the white jade Guanyin statue in his forehand, appreciating it carefully, and couldn't help admiring, "It's really a rare treasure, no wonder it costs so much silver. But, I have to say, the 5 It's worth the two silver coins."

Xianyun watched Zhao Keren's movements, and was quite happy in his heart, "Miss, this white jade Guanyin statue is really a good thing! Although it is a bit expensive, it is still worth it."

Hearing Xianyun's words, Zhao Keren said with a smile, "Yeah, fortunately, I acted quickly enough, otherwise, if Cousin Yimiao preempted me, I would definitely regret it. It seems that my decision is still Nothing wrong."

"However," Xian Yun was still very worried, "Miss, if someone finds out, you have already sold the other courtyard in the suburbs, what will you do then?"

Hearing Xianyun's words, Zhao Keren glared at Xianyun, "What are you talking about? How would everyone know! This other courtyard has been under my name for so many years, do you think anyone has checked it? Besides, that's my other courtyard, and I want to sell it, isn't it okay? I didn't steal it, and I didn't rob it, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

"But, miss, the other courtyard was rewarded by the master himself, if it is discovered—" Xianyun was still very worried.

Zhao Keren smiled, and said confidently, "What are you afraid of, as long as we collect enough money as soon as possible, and then buy the other courtyard back, wouldn't it be fine?"

Xianyun nodded helplessly, "It seems that this is the only way to go."

A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in Zhao Keren's eyes where Xianyun didn't see it.It seems that idleness is becoming more and more useless. Recently, no matter what she does, she hides her head and shrinks her tail. In her eyes, any small matter will become a big one. It seems that it is better to be idle.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ke asked, "Xianyun, when will Xianluo come back?"

Xianyun didn't know why Zhao Keren suddenly asked about Xianluo, but she still replied very respectfully, "Miss Hui, there are still a few days before Xianluo will be back."

Hearing Xianyun's words, Zhao Keren nodded, "Okay, I understand, you go down first! Also, put this white jade Guanyin statue away."

After speaking, Zhao Keren put the white jade Guanyin statue back into the brocade box and handed it to Xianyun.After Xianyun took the white jade Guanyin statue, he put it away immediately and left the room.

And in the Chunhui Garden on the other side——

Aunt Yue is helping Zhao Keran comb her hair and getting ready for bed!

"Yuegu, are you ready to pay back tomorrow's birthday gifts?" Zhao Keran asked.

Aunt Yue helped Zhao Keran remove the hair ornament on her head, and replied with a smile, "Miss, don't worry, I've already installed the screen and put it in the cabinet. Also, the other gift has also been sent." Once it’s installed, it’s put together with the screen, don’t worry, miss.”

Speaking of another gift, Yue Gu frowned and asked, "But Miss, is it really okay for you to do this? If Miss Second is offended, will she do something?"

Seeing Aunt Yue's worried look, Zhao Keran smiled and said, "Guy Yue, don't worry, Zhao Keren pays great attention to her external image. No matter what happens, she will always be in front of outsiders. I will never destroy my image. Also, I don't know anything about this matter, so it has nothing to do with me!"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Keran still smiled coquettishly, stuck out her tongue, and looked like a naughty little girl.

Looking at Zhao Keran's delicate appearance, Yuegu couldn't help laughing, "Miss, you are really serious, such things can be used as a joke."

Zhao Keran was very happy to see Aunt Yue smiled, "Aunt Yue, I'm not joking! Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore, I have the ability to handle everything well."

Seeing Zhao Keran's confident expression, Yuegu nodded, "No matter what time it is, I will absolutely trust you."

After thinking for a while, Zhao Keran said, "Guy Yue, you don't have to accompany me to Duke Qin's mansion tomorrow, it's good to have Long'er, Qin Xiang and Shi Xiang accompany me."

After hearing Zhao Keran's order, Aunt Yue was very anxious, "Why! Miss, the servant wants to follow tomorrow too! Don't worry, the servant will never cause you any trouble."

Seeing Aunt Yue's anxious look, Zhao Keran quickly explained, "Guy Yue, don't worry, I'm not afraid that you will cause trouble."

"Why is that?" Yue Gu asked, "Why don't you let the slaves go with you?"

Zhao Keran smiled and said, "Gu Yue, your little grandson has been ill recently, you are very worried, aren't you?"

"Miss, how did you know?" Yue Gu was startled when she heard Zhao Keran's words.In fact, her little grandson has indeed fallen ill recently, and she has always wanted to find a chance to go back to see her little grandson, but because Mrs. Qin's birthday banquet is coming soon, she never brought it up.However, he didn't expect that the lady would know about it.

"Yuegu, I know, because there are so many things to do these days, you are not willing to ask for leave and go home at this time." Zhao Keran said, "But, tomorrow is the birthday party, and everything has been prepared, so you don't have to worry about it." .Tomorrow, you can go home and visit your little grandson! Otherwise, how can you have the energy to do other things well if you worry about it all the time!"

"Miss." Hearing Zhao Keran's words, Yuegu was very moved. She never thought that Miss would be silently caring for her, but she was still not at ease, "How about, Miss, after tomorrow's birthday party , I'll go home again!"

Zhao Keran smiled and shook his head, "Guy Yue, I really don't need it. Tomorrow's birthday banquet, I will set off with my mother and Keren. Besides, there are Longer, Qinxiang and Shixiang. You don't have to worry about it. You have to go back tomorrow, just take good care of your little grandson."

Hearing what Zhao Keran said, Yuegu no longer refused, "Okay then! The servant will not accompany you tomorrow, you must be careful! Also, be careful of the second lady! If there is really something If there is something to do, tell Long'er and the others to do it, you know?"

"Okay!" Hearing Aunt Yue's instructions, Zhao Keran nodded again and again, "Aunt Yue, don't worry! It's just to celebrate my birthday, and besides, it's my grandparent's house, what can happen! It's you , It seems that I haven't been back for a long time. When you go home this time, you should rest at home for a few days and be with your family. You don't have to rush back, you know?"

"Okay." Yuegu also obeyed Zhao Keran's persuasion and nodded.

Seeing Aunt Yue's gray hair at the temples, Zhao Keran asked, "Aunt Yue, in fact, you are not young anymore, have you ever thought about going home to take care of yourself?"

Hearing Zhao Keran's words, Aunt Yue asked in a panic, "Miss, is it because the servants are old and useless, so you don't want the servants to serve you by your side?"

Hearing Yue Gu's words, Zhao Keran quickly explained, "No, no, absolutely not, Yue Gu, how could I despise you!"

Zhao Keran grabbed Yuegu's birthday and held it tightly, "Yuegu, you brought me up since I was a child. In my mind, you are actually no different from my mother. But Yuegu, it's been so many years, you Just stay by my side all the time, what about your family? Do you miss them very much? Also, because you are by my side, even if your little grandson is sick, you can’t be by her side Take care of. Also, your son, your daughter-in-law, don’t you miss them at all? When other people are as old as you, they have already spent their lives at home and have grandchildren. But what about you? You are still serving me all the time, and you hardly have time to go home to see your family. Yuegu, don’t you really have no regrets at all? Look. Keren’s nanny was born when she was five years old. You have already resigned and went back to accompany your family, don't you envy him at all?"

Standing up to Zhao Keran's words, Aunt Yue felt very relieved, "Miss, you have really grown up."

Yuegu stretched out her hand and stroked Zhao Keran's hair, "Miss, I'm very happy that you think of me like this, but I still want to stay by Miss's side."

Hearing Yue Gu's words, Zhao Keran wanted to say something, but Yue Gu stopped her, "Miss, listen to me first. In fact, from the first time I saw Miss, I already liked her very much." Miss. Miss, you don’t know, you were really cute when you were young. In fact, after so many years, I have always regarded you as my own daughter. So, no matter what happens, I will always be by your side By the lady's side."

"Aunt Yue, what about your family? Don't you miss them at all?" Zhao Keran asked.

Aunt Yue smiled and shook her head, "If I told you that I don't want to, I must be lying to you. However, it has been so many years, in fact, my son and daughter-in-law have long been used to this kind of life. .Even if I go home now and live with them, I may not get used to it. In fact, this kind of life is quite good. When I am on vacation, I will go home and live for a while. In this way, the relationship between us, Maybe it will be better! If you really go home and live with them, maybe it will be easy to have conflicts."

"Yuegu." Zhao Keran knew that Yuegu said this for her own sake. In fact, which mother would not want to live with her son or daughter-in-law!However, since Yue Gu has already said that, it means that she will never leave her.Looking at Yue Gu like this, Zhao Keran couldn't help thinking of her previous life, Yue Gu died to protect herself, and even after her death, her body was not sent home, but was thrown into a mass burial post.If it wasn't for me, then in her previous life, Aunt Yue could actually live well.

Thinking of this, Zhao Keran secretly made up her mind that she will take good care of Aunt Yue in the future.

"By the way, Aunt Yue, what is your son doing now?" Zhao Keran asked, and she realized that she never seemed to know anything about Aunt Yue's family.

Aunt Yue smiled and replied, "My son! He hasn't studied much, so he can't find any decent job, so he can only work as a waiter in a small teahouse, barely able to support his family. But it's okay, In normal times, I still have my monthly money to help make up for it, and life at home is pretty good."

After hearing Yue Gu's words, Zhao Keran thought for a while and said, "Yue Gu, you told me a while ago that Keren wanted to sell the other courtyard in the suburbs, do you remember?"

Hearing Zhao Keran's words, Aunt Yue was puzzled, but still nodded, "I remember, but Miss, didn't you say that we don't care about that matter?" 13acv.

Zhao Keran smiled mysteriously, "Guy Yue, that lovely courtyard has been sold, and the buyer is me."

"What?" Upon hearing Zhao Keran's words, Aunt Yue was taken aback, "Miss, is what you said true? How did you get so much money? Also, if someone else finds out about this, then Miss, you It will also be dragged down."

Seeing Aunt Yue's nervous look, Zhao Keran smiled and comforted her, "Aunt Yue, you don't have to worry, no one will know about it. Also, the money in this other hospital is absolutely decent, so you don't have to worry. Also, when I bought this other courtyard, I asked someone else to come forward, and that person is unknown to everyone, so no one will know. Just rest assured!"

Hearing Zhao Keran's words, Yue Gu's heart settled, "Then miss, who is that person who helped you out? Is he reliable?"

Zhao Keran nodded, and replied affirmatively, "Guy Yue, don't worry, he is a friend of mine, you don't know him. However, he is very reliable, so you absolutely don't have to worry."

"However, Miss, why did you buy that other courtyard?" Aunt Yue was puzzled. The lady was next to that other courtyard, and there was obviously another one. Why did the lady buy the second lady's? seat?

Zhao Keran smiled, but did not answer.In fact, when she was about to buy the other courtyard at the beginning, she saw that Zhao Keren was eager to sell it and would definitely transfer it at a low price, so she wanted to take advantage of it.But, besides that, there is another reason.When her grandfather gave her and Zhao Keren these two other courtyards, they were allowed to choose by themselves.She actually liked Zhao Keren's one better.However, since I was my older sister at the time, I let Keren choose first.However, Keren immediately picked out the other courtyard he liked.

Between days Zhao Renwu.In fact, that other courtyard was not more valuable than his own. In order to show fairness, the two other courtyards chosen by grandfather were not only connected, but also similar in size and value.However, in the other courtyard that you can choose, there is a precious plum garden. There are various varieties of plum blossoms planted in that plum garden. When it snows in winter, the plum blossoms in the garden are in full bloom. Against the backdrop of snow, it looks even more beautiful.I like that plum garden very much, but since it has been picked away by Keren, I can't help it.

But, unexpectedly, Zhao Keren would sell the other courtyard in order to buy the white jade Guanyin statue.Since there was such an opportunity, how could Zhao Keran let it go?Therefore, when she heard that Zhao Keren wanted to sell the other courtyard, her first reaction was to buy it.And now, I have indeed bought the other courtyard as I wished, and owned the plum garden.However, right now, I haven't found a suitable person to take care of that other courtyard.

Thinking of this, Zhao Keran smiled, and asked, "Yuegu, if I say that I want your son to help me take care of that other courtyard, do you think he will be willing?"

"What?" Upon hearing Zhao Keran's words, Aunt Yue was very pleasantly surprised, "Miss, do you mean that you want the servant's son to work in the other courtyard you just bought?"

Zhao Keran nodded, "Yeah, let him go there to be in charge. But don't worry! I won't treat him badly."

Zhao Keran had already thought about it, but Yue Gu's son would be the best candidate.In fact, I have met Aunt Yue's son a few times, and he is a simple and honest person.Moreover, not many people knew him, even if he worked in that other courtyard, it would not arouse anyone's suspicion.In addition, he is still Yuegu's son, and Yuegu has dedicated her whole life to herself, so it's time for him to do something for Yuegu.

"No, miss, is what you said true?" Yue Gu was overjoyed when she heard that Zhao Keran wanted her son to be a steward in another courtyard.No matter what, being a steward will have a better future than being a waiter in a teahouse.Moreover, not only has the income increased, even if it is said, being a steward is much more respectable than being a mistress.

Seeing Aunt Yue's surprised look, Zhao Keran nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, I will give him a corresponding reward. There will be ten taels of silver a month, and there are rewards for the New Year's Day, etc. Absolutely not less. All her treatment will be the same as that of the stewards of other courtyards in the Grand Master's Mansion."

"What, ten taels of silver?" Aunt Yue couldn't believe it. Now her son is only two taels of silver every month. Now not only is the work easier, but the income has increased by five times in an instant.

"Yes, Aunt Yue, is your son willing?" Zhao Keran asked.

"Of course I would." Yue Gu agreed again and again, but after thinking about it, "Miss, is it because of your slave that you thought of letting the son of your slave go to another courtyard to be in charge?"

Zhao Keran smiled and replied, "Guy Yue, you think too much. In fact, my other courtyard really needs a steward. And your son is indeed a good candidate. However, I am not because of you I want to find your son, but because your son is really suitable. I have met your son a few times, he is indeed an honest person, and he has worked in the teahouse for so long, I believe there will be Someone with certain experience will definitely be able to help me take care of the other courtyard, don’t tell me, Yuegu, don’t you trust your son? Or, you don’t trust my vision.”

"No, no," Yue Gu quickly shook her head, "Miss, how could this slave not believe you!"

"That's good." Zhao Keran said with a smile, "Then it's decided. Aunt Yue, when you go home this time, you can talk to your son. Also, find another chance and let us meet."

"Okay." Aunt Yue replied gratefully, "Miss, thank you very much for giving this servant's son such a chance."

Zhao Keran smiled, "Guy Yue, I should be the one to thank you, you have been by my side occasionally, and now your son is here to help me take care of the other courtyard, I should be the one to say thank you."

After hearing Zhao Keran's words, Yuegu shook her head repeatedly, "Miss, I know that everything you do is for the sake of your servant, and if you are a servant like this, even if you want your servant to go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire, the servant will not even blink an eye. "

Seeing Aunt Yue's serious look, Zhao Keran shook his head amusedly, "Aunt Yue, it's not that serious! I won't ask you to go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire, as long as you stay by my side. .”

"Okay, the servant will always be by Miss's side," Yue Gu nodded firmly.

After thinking about it, Zhao Keran said, "Guy Yue, it's rare for you to take a vacation, so you can stay for a few more days when you go back this time! Don't rush to come back, it's enough to have Long'er and the others by my side."

Yue Gu frowned, "But—"

"Gu Yue, you don't have to worry." Zhao Keran persuaded, "Look, now I have not only Long'er, but also Qin Xiang and Shi Xiang by my side! Don't worry."

Aunt Yue was still worried, "But Qin Xiang and Shi Xiang have just arrived, and they don't have much experience."

Zhao Keran smiled, "Guy Yue, although Qin Xiang and Shi Xiang are newcomers, their abilities are obvious to all. Haven't you praised them for what they can do?"

"That's true." Yue Gu nodded, "Not to mention, Qin Xiang and Shi Xiang are really capable, no matter what they do, they can do it well. Although they look delicate, they can do things well. , but they are more powerful than anyone else. I really don’t know where they worked before, and how their original masters are willing to release them.”

"Yes!" Hearing Yuegu mention Qinxiang and Shixiang's former masters, Zhao Keran's face flashed unnaturally, and he quickly changed the subject, "Yuegu, you should comb my hair quickly! I'm going to sleep. "

"Okay." Seeing that Zhao Keran was tired, Yuegu hurriedly quickened her movements.
