Chapter 14 Loyal Slave

Breakfast returned to the usual routine, consisting of small siomai, steamed buns, egg custard, and a bowl of goat milk.

After breakfast in a hurry, I took Shuixiang to Ruyi Tang to pay my respects to the old lady.

As soon as he went out, he met Jiang Yirou, the third girl who lived next door.

Jiang Yirou walked a few steps and took Jiang Yixi's hand, "Second sister, I'm about to go on an appointment with you."

Her voice is soft and waxy, her hands are smooth, and her smile is sweet.

Before getting married in her previous life, Jiang Yixi was not very close to Jiang Yirou. She thought she was like her parents, a smiling tiger type. Later I found out that the three-bedroom family was quite nice.

Jiang Yixi was in a better mood. Only people who have experienced suffering can more easily appreciate the beauty in ordinary things. In life, it is much more pleasant to experience beauty than to experience bad things.

The two of them went to Ruyi Hall hand in hand.

Jiang Yirou and Jiang Yixi bit their ears, "If grandma hasn't picked you up after the Chinese New Year, let my dad remind grandma."

Jiang Yixi smiled and expressed her gratitude.

Mrs. Jiang Da, Mrs. Jiang San, Jiang Yiyan, and Jiang Yishan were already in Ruyi Hall, and the boys invited Wan'an to study in the front yard.

Previously, there was a female gentleman in Jiang Mansion who taught several girls how to read and play the piano. It was not until the end of last year that the youngest fifth girl turned eleven. The old lady felt that the girls should learn more from female celebrities and housekeepers, so she fired the female teacher.

.

After solving that troublesome matter, and thinking that her second granddaughter might be able to bring considerable benefits to the family in the future, the old lady looked at Jiang Yixi much more kindly than before.

"How are you preparing the things? If you are missing something, ask your auntie for it."

Jiang Yixi smiled and said, "Thank you grandma, I saved it."

After chatting and laughing with the old lady for a while, the girls went to play with butterflies and swing in the garden, but Jiang Yixi didn't go.

As soon as she returned to Zhuoyuan and sat down, she heard footsteps in the yard, and then the voice of a silly girl.

"Second Miss, Second Miss, Sister Hua'er came to tell me that I will be transferred to Second Miss as a maid. Is it true?"

While she was talking, she had already run into the house and looked at Jiang Yixi and the others with wide eyes. She couldn't believe that such a good thing could happen to her, fearing that someone else was teasing her.

Jiang Yixi smiled and said, "It's true. If you don't want to, I'll go tell the eldest lady again."

The silly girl knelt down on the ground and said happily, "I am willing, I am willing. It is your blessing to be able to serve the second girl."

Aunt Wu smiled and said, "Look at your silly girl's mouth, how sweet it is."

Jiang Yixi asked the silly girl to get up, "I'm going to Huzhuang to stay for a long time on the third day of the lunar month next month. You go back and arrange your home well. I'll be here on duty on the first day of the lunar month."

The silly girl asked again, "Will I get a monthly salary increase if I come to serve the girl? I used to be a rough girl, and I only got three hundred cents a month. Because I did the work of two people, the manager gave me an extra fifty

arts."

Aunt Wu smiled and said, "You silly girl, how can you be so silly? You are so thief when it comes to calculating money."

Jiang Yixi smiled and said, "From now on you will be my second-class girl, and you will get 600 yuan per month."

The silly girl jumped a few times with joy, laughed twice, and quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

Shuixiang smiled and said, "The silly girl is going crazy with joy."

The silly girl knelt down and kowtowed excitedly again, "Thank you, Miss Er, for now you have money to treat your elder brother. Your grandfather was a soldier of the old man, and he broke an arm during the war. My father is Er.

The master's personal soldiers died on the battlefield with the second master and did not come back. They are all loyal slaves, and I must also be the loyal slave of the second girl and protect the second girl with my life."

Jiang Yixi was stunned and asked, "Is your father Jiang Tiejie?"

She knew that Jiang Chen's personal soldier was named Jiang Tie, and she had met him twice when she was a child.

The silly girl nodded, "Well, my father's name is Jiang Tie."

Aunt Wu looked at the silly girl carefully and said, "Don't tell me, she looks a bit like Jiang Tie. I remember Jiang Tie said his daughter's name is Ling'er..."

The silly girl smiled and said, "My name is Jiang Ling'er. My dad said that no matter how stupid I am in the eyes of others, I am the smartest in my dad's eyes."

Jiang Yixi personally stood up and helped the silly girl up and said, "From now on, you will be called Shuiling. You are not only smart, but also watery."

The silly girl's eyes were filled with little stars, "I know, Shui Ling is so handsome."

Jiang Yixi smiled and said, "Dress up well, our Shuiling will be a handsome girl."

She listened again to the situation at Han Yatou's house.

The news of Jiang Tie's death in battle came back. The silly girl's grandfather almost died of anger, and her brother broke his leg. The court gave fifteen taels of silver as a pension, and the uncle's house gave ten taels of silver. It only took half a year to treat grandfather and brother.

There was no one left. My brother's leg was lame, and he was not recovering well, so he lost his job as a driver for the government. Fortunately, she came to work in the government last year, and she made money again...

Jiang Yixi sighed secretly, the mainstay of the family was dead, and she stopped caring after giving him ten taels of silver. She treated the family members of the hero so unkindly, no wonder Uncle Wu Xiang's house was getting worse and worse. In his previous life, he was also confused, and he never paid attention to many things.

She went to the bedroom to open the makeup box, which contained two fifty-tael silver ingots, some broken silver, and more than a dozen gold and silver jewelry. Most of her monthly money was used to buy jewelry, silk damask, embroidery thread, or story books.

Not many items to save.

This is almost Jiang Yixi's entire family fortune. The old lady has not received the fifty taels of silver she verbally promised.

Jiang Yixi took out ten taels of silver. Tomorrow she had to go to the street to sell some jewelry, and there were many things to buy.

She handed the money to the silly girl, "My brother and I didn't know that Uncle Tie's family was in such a difficult situation, but we ignored it. Use the money to treat your grandfather and brother to make their lives easier. If anything happens to them, they can go to Jiang

Xun, Jiang Xun will help."

The silly girl cried with joy and kowtowed to Jiang Yixi several times. Her brother's legs had not been able to move well and the pain was terrible...

Jiang Xun came to Zhuoyuan for dinner at noon.

He whispered, "Sister, Brother Lianshan came to see me again today. I said that sister is going to live in Huzhuang in the southern suburbs. Brother Lianshan said that Zhuangzi, where Prince Meng lived, is also in Linfeng Town in the southern suburbs. If Sister is in Zhuangzi,

If something happens, send someone to find him... He also asked us if we needed any help, and I said we didn't have any at the moment."

With that said, he took out five silver notes and gave them to Jiang Yixi, each worth one hundred taels of silver.

Jiang Yixi shook her head and said, "I've already said that I can't ask for other people's money anymore. How can I accept such a large amount of money?"

The first time he received it was when Meng Cimo thanked the orphan of his savior, so he accepted it. Later he gave a small amount of money as pocket money to his children. But this time he gave so much money...

Jiang Xun said, "I didn't accept it at first, saying that I had grown up and could not accept other people's money casually. Brother Lianshan forced it on me, saying that we have no father or mother, so they should take more care of me. Let me do this this time

Take it, and he will go back and make it clear to Prince Meng that he will not give it away again if nothing happens. Sister, take this money and spend it in the village, it will be miserable in the countryside."

Jiang Yixi thought about what she wanted to buy. She took out three of them and returned the other two to Jiang Xun. "Hide them well and don't let Mrs. Yu see them again, otherwise they will be taken away by grandma again."
