Back to ancient times to open obstetrics

Chapter 1270 The Music of the Piano (2)
"What? 100 taels of silver?" Liu Qiqiao touched her heart and said with aching heart, "If I remember correctly, the Empress Dowager only rewarded Concubine Liang with 100 taels of silver. What is this? The girl is too expensive, I just drank a few cups of tea from her..."

Du Ruo hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him: "In addition to the money for listening to the music, it also includes a table of delicious dishes and the money for painting the boat, all of which are included in the calculation. In fact, it is not very expensive. In Changle Lane in the capital, if you invite If you want to go to Biyue Lake for a swim with the girl, it will cost so much money."

Liu Qiqiao glared at Du Ruo, gritted her teeth and said, "You're going to die, and you know exactly how much money these romantic places cost. Tell me, how many times have you been there?"

Du Ruo was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she hurriedly said: "I, I have never been there. You said it was expensive, so I persuaded you to come!"

Liu Qiqiao burst out laughing, recalled what happened to Tang Hongzhe today, and asked casually, "Can court officials order prostitutes? Is there any problem?"

Du Ruo said: "Hong Yuan is an official prostitute, she doesn't accept ordinary guests."

Liu Qiqiao suddenly understood that ancient civil servants were much more comfortable than modern civil servants, and it was really considerate of the emperor to think of such a way to relieve the fatigue of civil servants.

I heard that more than half of the money collected by the official prostitutes was to be handed over to the imperial court, so in fact, Du Ruo just used his own salary to pay the imperial court for this meal.

The two chatted for a few more words, and then fell asleep.The next day was still a sunny day. At noon, Qi Wang, who had been with the second master Du, went to Du's house first, met Mrs. Du, and helped Aunt Su on the way back to her hometown. Let's talk about things.

It turned out that this time the emperor was gracious and allowed Mr. Su to return to his hometown for burial, and because he thought that the Su family had no heir, he asked Aunt Su to bring Du Yi to Jinling to pay homage.Qi Wang hurried over early in the morning to reply to Mrs. Du, and said: "Aunt Su said that she is wearing filial piety, so it is inconvenient to come to see the old lady, so let the slaves come to say hello to the old lady first, and when they arrive in Jiangning, then The county magistrate on the other side has arranged the funeral of Mrs. Su, and she and the second girl will come to the mansion to pay respects to the old lady."

Mrs. Du always knew that Aunt Su was a polite person, so she said, "You go first, they can't do without men, and the second master doesn't have time to come together, so you should take care of him."

Du Ruo was also sitting in the hall, and after hearing Mrs. Du's words, she just said, "Old lady, Tang Hongzhe, the magistrate of Jiangning County, is Mr. Tang's youngest son. He is also considered a family friend with our family. Why don't I go and have a look with Qi Wang? The second uncle didn't come, I should help with these things."

Mrs. Du thought about it. Although she wanted Du Ruo to go there, she felt a little worried when she thought of the three patients lying in Du's house.
