Solitary pet

Chapter 31

In the past few days, there have been rumors among the servants in the mansion that the cousin girl from Wangjing offended the mansion and was thrown into Shenghu to fend for herself.

Su Ri Hesheng was a friendly person, no matter how fierce the words were spread, no one would dare to come forward and say anything wrong.It's just that when walking around the house, I often get a lot of sympathetic looks, some of which are a little schadenfreude.

Cuiyu found out from the maid she had befriended that the rumor spread from the servant in the front yard.It happened to be the boy who was kicked out last time when he went to Wangjing Mansion to spread the word.

They are just borrowing, if they are not careful, they will easily fall into the shoes of others.It just so happened that the silver taels on their bodies had been spent almost, and they had no money to take care of the servants.Such a rumor came across such a tight time.

No matter how poor He Sheng was, he was still a decent master. A master could have no airs, but he couldn't have no money.

The cousin without the support of the big mansion naturally has no money, and without money, she just eats and drinks for free.It happened to be a rumor in the real mansion.

He Sheng just came back from the grandmother's place, and when he entered the room, he saw Cuiyu crying on the table.After asking, I found out that Cuiyu was playing cards with someone today, and Fengzi, the girl of the second room, joked that she was beating the girl of Qiufeng's family.

He Sheng frowned, looking at the scratches on Cuiyu's wrist, both distressed and angry.She knew a little about the rumors in the mansion.She was originally a fake hall girl, and she had been in Shenghu for two months, and Wangjing had never asked her. Based on this alone, it is not unreasonable to say that she should be left to fend for herself.

He Sheng took the ointment and applied it on the green jade, he was silent for a while, and finally took out the green jade bracelet he was wearing next to him, "Go outside and pawn this for some silver taels."

Cuiyu knew the origin of this bracelet—it was given to Er Niangzi by the entrustment of Young Master Jinzhi before his death.In their husband-wife relationship, the only thing left is this bracelet.

Cuiyu opened her mouth to speak, but He Sheng stopped her with a look.Gritting his teeth, he ran out to the pawn shop and exchanged 40 taels.

It is impossible to say that there is no touch.No matter what, it is the relic of the deceased husband, so I am really reluctant to sell it like this.

But even if you can't bear it, what can you do? Nowadays, living a good life is the most important thing.

After taking the silver, He Sheng took Cuiyu to Li Qing's house.The girl who was beaten, Fengzi, was called over. Li Qing was arrogant, thinking that she had the support of her second mistress, which was much stronger than her empty air from Wangjing, and her tone was very arrogant: "How do you discipline the servants? Look at her beating up Fengzi. What happened, there are injuries all over the body!"

As she spoke, she asked Fengzi to take off her coat, but Fengzi was reluctant, and she tore it off, revealing her white thighs and arms, all bruised.

It did hurt badly.He Sheng glanced back at Cuiyu secretly, and the scratches on Cuiyu's body seemed nothing compared to the big picture.

This girl, who usually hides deeply, turns out to be a good fighter.He Sheng automatically increased the original two taels of compensation to three taels, took out the money and threw it on the table, "I asked the people present, and they all said that it was Fengzi who picked the trouble first. Cuiyu apologizes, you asked Fengzi to apologize to Cuiyu, this is the medicine fee for her."

Li Qing squinted: "Why do you apologize, Fengzi, just ignore her!"

He Sheng picked up the money bag and handed it to Feng Zi, "Apologize, the money is yours. No apology? Not a cent."

Li Qing stared at Fengzi with sharp eyes, "Don't apologize!"

Fengzi hesitated for half a second, then quickly snatched the purse from Hesheng's hand, and respectfully apologized to Cuiyu.

Li Qing is not a serious master, everyone in the house knows that she is a country girl who lives in Wei Mansion just to let the Second Mistress find a good marriage for her, but He Sheng is different, she is a rich man if she is rich.

Cuiyu made a puff, and He Sheng grabbed her elbow, so she didn't laugh out loud.Now that the master and servant had achieved their goal, they turned around and left without saying much.

Li Qing was so angry that she stomped her feet to hit Fengzi, but just as she raised her hand, she didn't dare to strike - Fengzi was a close maid, and she had to take care of everything.The unknown fire in my heart became more and more intense, and I fell off the chair, wanting to vent my anger on Hesheng's master and servant, and shouted at Hesheng's back: "If you have the ability, you spend your whole life with money. Who doesn't know that you are an empty air. It depends on what good things you can come up with!"

He Sheng paused.

She only has 37 taels for her whole body now, and it is really far from enough to make an appropriate birthday gift for Mrs. Wei.Not to mention that the days will be long in the future, and there will always be a day when the empty mountain will be exhausted.

Alas, no money, really sad.

Pei Liang held the box containing the jade bracelet and carefully handed it to Shen Hao.

Shen Hao picked it up with two fingers and saw that it was translucent emerald green and of good color, and it only cost 40 taels, which is a pity.

"The owner of the pawn shop said that the girl who pawned the jade bracelet said it was a gift from her family, and she will definitely get it back in the future. If I guess correctly, it should belong to Miss Wei."
