This time spent nearly twenty taels of silver, which is really distressing.
However, Song Qiu holds the Changhe land deed and three deeds of betrayal, so he doesn't feel so distressed just thinking about it.
People are worthless these days and can be bought and sold at will, but she comes from later generations and still knows how precious people are.
She was so satisfied with the three people she bought today that she didn't think the fifteen taels of silver were worth anything.
After leading the group out of Zeng's dental shop, Zeng Ya's mother-in-law saw them off behind and politely said that they could come back next time if necessary.
Song Qiu agreed, then took the mule cart tied to the door and asked the three of them to sit on it.
Yang Dalian was a smart man and immediately stepped forward respectfully to take the whip from Song Qiu's hand, "Girl, the younger one should come and drive the car!"
Song Qiu didn't hesitate and gave him the job of driving the carriage.
Wang followed Song Qiu and got on the mule cart.
Both of them sold themselves and became servants. This was the first time they were bought by their master. They only thought about doing a good job when they arrived at the master's house and not to be sold out again. They didn't think about anything else.
Only Du Chuanfu, who worked as a nurse for a wealthy family, saw the girl who bought them driving a mule cart by herself, and was a little curious about what the new owner's family did.
After all, if you are used to having servants available to you, you will never drive a mule cart by yourself.
But he didn't have many ideas. No matter what he did, since Du Chuanfu was bought, he would be useful in this life. If the girl took a fancy to him, he should be loyal to her and listen to her words.
of.
…
In the afternoon, Landlord Cheng and Mrs. Cheng visited several times after receiving the news, and the ancestors also sent people to guard the place.
Grandma Cheng was not busy with anything else this afternoon. She just stayed in her son's yard.
Everyone was anxiously waiting for Young Master Cheng's reaction.
But young master Cheng has been falling asleep since he drank that bowl of stuff.
Until Mrs. Chen herself felt very uneasy waiting, landlord Cheng, Mrs. Cheng and the uncle of the Cheng family all came to the courtyard again.
At this time, young master Cheng, who was sleeping on the bed, suddenly woke up. The first thing he said when he opened his eyes was that he was thirsty and asked for water.
The maid on guard quickly went to pour some warm water. It was a large glass, but Young Master Cheng drank it all in one gulp, and it took him two glasses in a row to finish it.
The nanny who had been waiting on him was now worried, fearing that Young Master Cheng would complain of bloating again, which was what he usually felt after drinking water.
But after waiting for a while, he didn't see anything. Instead, Young Master Cheng suddenly held his stomach and shouted, "I want to go to the toilet."
Grandma Cheng and others who were guarding the house were immediately overjoyed.
"Quick! Help the young master to the royal room!"
Two quarters of an hour later, the young master was completely exhausted and was helped out of the royal room by the servant.
The mother-in-law who went in to clean up came out and reported: "Go back to grandma, the young master really brought out a lot of bugs!"
As he finished speaking, someone took out the bucket. There were as many as ten or twenty items densely packed inside, which made one's scalp numb just by looking at it.
Grandma Cheng's eyelids tightened as she thought that this was the thing that had made her otherwise healthy son so thin, so she quickly waved her hand and let him burn it.
Then they entered the house, where Mrs. Cheng was greeting the young master.
"My dear grandson, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?"
"My grandson feels much more comfortable all over. He also feels a little hungry now."
Grandma Cheng listened and quickly asked someone to go to the kitchen to bring some light food.
Until he saw young master Cheng drinking a large bowl of white fungus soup and a large bowl of bird's nest porridge with a great appetite, he fell asleep again.
The doctor who was invited also took his pulse and said that it was undoubtedly better.
Only then did everyone feel completely relieved.
The little golden grandson of the Cheng family was finally saved.
The person who saved this only bloodline is the benefactor of their Cheng family, so he should be extremely grateful, right?
After some internal discussions within the Cheng family, the matter was naturally handed over to the head of the family, Grandma Cheng.
It was too late to take care of it that night. The next morning, Grandma Cheng went to see her son again. After washing and changing clothes, she saw that her son could walk freely on the ground and his face looked like a normal person.
After having breakfast with her, Grandma Cheng returned to her yard and asked Ju Xiang to invite Mrs. Chen over.
Mrs. Chen was also very relieved that she accidentally cured the young master of the Cheng family's illness. Now that he was cured, her pear blossom no longer had to face the situation of being lucky.
When she heard Ju Xiang came to invite her, she also guessed that Grandma Cheng wanted to reward her, and she knew it well, so she followed Ju Xiang into the inner courtyard of the Cheng family again without any anxiety, and saw Grandma Cheng in Grandma Cheng's yard.
"Sister Chen, sit down."
At this moment, Grandma Cheng's attitude was much warmer and gentler than yesterday. She invited Mrs. Chen to sit down, and asked the maid to bring hot tea. After some pleasantries, she asked Mrs. Chen how she felt about working in the Cheng family.
But if there's anything you don't like, just tell me.
After Ms. Chen answered her questions one by one, Grandma Cheng changed her subject and got back to the topic.
"First of all, our family let the word go. The matchmaker is marrying a girl who can bring my son a happy wedding, and the betrothal gift is a thousand taels of gold. Our family is sincere in what we say, and it cannot be taken as false. Now my son needs to be cured by Sister Chen.
Not to mention anything else, I must give you this thousand taels of gold as a thank you."
Mrs. Chen is already a married woman with children, so she is obviously not suitable to offer her life-saving favors, and that is to give money as a reward of gratitude.
They were willing to give the life of the little golden grandson of the Cheng family and a thousand taels of gold.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she was startled. She thought that the Cheng family would like to thank her for saving someone, or give her a reward of dozens of taels or at most a hundred taels. She did not dare to ask for more. After all, saving someone would be enough.
The original intention was more for my daughter.
This thousand taels of gold is a hot potato and cannot be taken.
Mrs. Chen looked panicked, and quickly waved her hands to refuse, "I can't help it, I can't help it, this thousand taels of gold is too much, and I didn't do anything. It just happened that the young master's illness was the same as what I had seen before. A blind cat meets a dead mouse."
That’s all, I can’t bear such an exorbitant amount of money!”
They also wanted to work in the Cheng family, and it was a thank you that they were willing to give so much. If she felt at ease and accepted it without saying a word, that would not be the case.
Besides, there is no airtight wall in the world. Even if she took this thousand taels of gold, she would not be able to hold it securely.
"To be honest, Grandma, the reason why I was a little concerned about the young master's illness, and then I happened to think that the illness was familiar and saved the young master, I also had selfish motives in my heart."
When Grandma Cheng saw Mrs. Chen rejecting the thousand taels of gold and not pretending to refuse, she looked at Mrs. Chen with a high regard.
After hearing these words again, she became suspicious.
have an ax to grind?
If it's not for the money, is it possible that Mrs. Chen wants something from you?
What is more important than a thousand taels of gold?
Grandma Cheng immediately thought about it and rushed to this man to save her son. As long as it was not a matter of murder and arson, if Mrs. Chen asked, she would handle it for her.
