Chapter 144
Prime Minister Xia didn't treat her badly, he gave her a maid, and this maid was Shuyu who was kicked out by Xia Zhiyuan.
Shuyu has always wanted to follow Mrs. Linglong, and this time, his wish has been fulfilled. It is a pity that Mrs. Linglong today is not even as good as the Yuan family back then.
Shuyu came in with a bruised nose and a swollen face. Before she settled down, Mrs. Linglong asked her to clean.
Unluckily, she picked up the broom and finally cleaned the elegant room. Mrs. Linglong asked her to clean the yard and gazebo again.
Shuyu was beaten up in Xiazhiyuan, now he came here, he kept busy doing things without even drinking a sip of water, how could he be reconciled? She sat down and said aggrievedly: "Servant, rest for a while, and then go to clean."
Mrs. Linglong raised her brows upside down, and twisted her ears, "You dare to bully me, don't you? Didn't you always complain about coming to serve me? Now your dream has come true, how dare you have it?" Complaints?"
Shuyu was beaten by Xiaosun before, and his ears and face were hurt. After being pinched by her like this, he immediately cried out in pain, "Forgive me, madam, forgive my sin, servant, let's go!"
Mrs. Linglong felt resentful, and it was rare to find someone to vent to, how could she let her go so easily? After a continuous beating and beating, Shuyu was beaten until the corners of his mouth and nose were bleeding, and he refused to give up.
After the birthday banquet, neither the old lady nor Prime Minister Xia talked to Zian.
They already feel that there is no need for this.
There was no Madam Linglong in charge in the mansion, and the old lady was tired, so Xia Wan'er recommended her to manage the affairs of the mansion, and both the old lady and Prime Minister Xia agreed.
The first thing Xia Wan'er did after taking office was three fires, ordering to stop all supplies in Xiazhiyuan, even the daily meals for living expenses.
This matter was not directly informed to Xiazhiyuan, which resulted in the refusal and humiliation of Mammy Yang and Xiaosun when they went to pick up the things.
This means that Xiazhiyuan has to be self-reliant.
The Yuan family did have some money, but they gave some to Chen Er's daughter-in-law and children, and took some maids from the same village who bribed Dr. Li and Xiaosun, so there was not much left.
Yuan Shi is not worried, she still has jewelry that can be sold.
Xiaosun told Zian privately that all these jewelry were Madam's dowry, which was left by Madam's dead mother.
Zian also couldn't bear to sell Yuan's dowry, but the remaining money really wouldn't last long.
When Murong Zhuangzhuang arrived, he heard them worrying about their livelihood, and said with a smile, "Isn't it just money? Don't worry, I have plenty. I'll send you whatever you want."
As the Eldest Princess, the land she entrusted can harvest a lot of money for her every year, so she certainly doesn't pay attention to the money.
Zi'an declined, "Thank you princess for your kindness. Poverty is hard to take care of. It's not an option to rely on the princess all the time. Besides, I have medical skills and a pair of hands. Self-reliance should not be a problem."
Zhuang Zhuang frowned, "Self-reliance? There are some women who are self-reliant. They either enter the government as slaves, or sell them into youths. They work as girls in the house, or open a stall in the market to sell tofu or wonton noodles. You can do it." What kind?"
Zian pulled Zhuang Zhuang aside and whispered a few words.
Zhuang Zhuang thought for a while, "It's possible. After all, you cured King Liang and Lao Qi. As long as the news is released, there must be many rich people who seek your treatment, and the consultation fees will be very generous."
"Please trouble the princess to take care of it for me." Zi'an said earnestly.
"Don't worry, it's not a difficult task. Although I don't have much contact with those official ladies, it's okay to release some news." Zhuang Zhuang said.
From the day she studied medicine, she decided that practicing medicine was her lifelong career. She didn't want to get involved in all kinds of battles and ignore the value of her own life.
When she first came here, she was thinking about how to survive. Now that she has gained a firm foothold, she wants to find a way out for her career and support herself and the Yuan family.
On the way to Prince Liang's Mansion, Murong Zhuangzhuang asked Zi'an directly.
"Plan? Isn't it just to let the princess find for me..."
Murong Zhuangzhuang interrupted her, "You know I don't mean this, but Chen Linglong and Xia Wan'er, how are you going to deal with it? And the Prime Minister, you don't naively think that the Prime Minister will let you go, right? They This time, you have suffered a serious setback, and the Xiangfu will lose all face, and it will all be blamed on you."
Although Murong Zhuangzhuang was not there that day, she knew everything that happened.
"Soldiers come to block the water and cover it with earth!" Zi'an lifted the curtain and looked at the busy people outside.
"Where are Chen Linglong and Xia Wan'er?" Murong Zhuangzhuang hated these two people very much, and always felt that this ending was not pleasant enough. She already understood the forced marriage.
"Princess, let things take their course." Zi'an didn't say much, but the hatred still lingered in his heart.
She knew that this hatred was left by the original owner, Xia Zian. She died at the hands of Murong Qiao and Chen Linglong's mother and daughter. If these two people did not die, this resentment would not dissipate.
"Don't be too soft-hearted, some people won't be grateful for your concessions, they will only make progress." Zhuang Zhuang thought that Zi'an really planned to let them go, so he kindly reminded them.
"Princess, don't worry, I have a sense of proportion!" Zi'an looked at her, feeling a little touched in his heart. Murong Zhuangzhuang didn't know him very long, and he wasn't close to him, but he always thought of her.
Coming to ancient times, it wasn't all about calculations and conspiracy, but also about friendship, which was a great comfort to her.
The carriage was stopped halfway, and it was Chen Liuliu who stopped the carriage.
Chen Liuliu was riding a horse, dressed in strong clothes, sitting majestically on the horse's back, if there was a burden on her back, she would indeed be very imposing.
She got off the horse and got into the carriage disheveledly. She hung her head and said, "Grandmother asked me to follow you for twelve hours until I get married."
Zi'an can't laugh or cry, isn't this old lady too impatient? Didn't we agree on half a year?
Zhuang Zhuang and Miss Chen's family have known each other for a long time, and he laughed when he heard her say this, "Your grandmother is just too anxious, don't you think I'm not married yet?"
Chen Liuliu took a look at Zhuang Zhuang, "Grandmother said, you can't imitate the Eldest Princess, seeing that she is too old to get married, Brother Xiao Xiao even went to the border to avoid you."
Zhuang Zhuang turned green, "Liu Liu, I am comforting you, don't hurt others."
Hearing Liu Liu's words, Zian asked, "Who is Xiao Xiao?"
Liu Liu's eyes widened, "You don't even know Xiao Xiao? General Xiao!"
"Isn't General Xiao Xiao Tuo?" Zi'an was confused.
"Xiao Xiao is Xiao Tuo's elder brother, and he will be my uncle in the future." Liu Liutian said shamelessly.
Zhuang Zhuang gave her a white look, "Are you wanting face? You haven't written a word about this matter, so you have the nerve to publicize it?"
"Isn't that a certainty? My grandmother said that Zi'an is the future princess regent, and Xiao Tuo is good friends with the prince regent. As long as the princess regent tells me, Xiao Tuo will have no choice but to marry her."
She looked at Zi'an, "Isn't it? You don't agree to such a thing. How can you say you are a good friend of the prince? If someone becomes friends with me, I have twelve brothers, just choose. Look, tell me which one you like. Say!"
