Lu Yi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I feel that... the eldest lady is a little different from before."
"Huh?" The old lady's voice sounded a little vague, as if she was about to fall asleep.
Lu Yi raised her head and carefully observed the other party's reaction. While guessing the old lady's thoughts, she carefully replied: "In recent years, several ladies and aunts have often bullied the eldest lady, Madam, obviously.
Although he didn't do anything to the eldest lady, he kept making small moves in private, and the servants in the house did not regard the eldest lady as their master. In the past, the eldest lady always did not say a word when she was wronged, but now the eldest lady is a slave.
But she feels...as long as she wants to, no one can bully her anymore."
The old lady closed her eyes and said slowly: "Growing up in such a bad environment, there will always be some changes. She is just a child without mother's love. She will be fed and clothed in two years.
All she needs to do is find a good family and marry her. Those people are so cruel that they can't even tolerate this. That's all, let me, an old woman, take care of her from now on. I hope she can suffer less in the future.
.”
Lu Yi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, now that the old lady is taking care of you, those people will not dare to neglect the eldest lady." What's more, in her opinion, the eldest lady now does not need anyone's protection at all, she can do it herself.
Able to protect oneself very well.
Just like what happened today, those who tried every possible means to plot against her were eventually tricked by her, and ended up losing everything.
"I hope so!" the old lady sighed quietly, and then there was no sound again.
Lu Yi took a closer look and found that the old lady was already asleep. He took a blanket from the back room to cover her, closed the window tightly, and left the room.
Before going out, I was thinking that the old lady seemed to be getting more and more sleepy recently.

Qingwan handed the deeds of the two shops to Zisu and asked her to take them into the back room and put them away. She was thinking of stopping by to take a look when she went to Zuixianming tomorrow.
Zi Su took a look at the two deeds and couldn't help but exclaimed with joy: "Miss, these two shops are both located on Wang Street. I heard that the rent there alone costs eight or nine taels of silver a month. Moreover,
It's not far from Zui Xian Ming. Wow, I didn't expect that Madam would be willing to give two such good shops to Miss."
She originally thought that what Madam gave her, even if it wasn't the worst, was certainly not much better.
Daukou curled her lips and said disapprovingly: "She is afraid that others will say that she has no discernment. She has made a lot of money from these two shops just from the rent. The lady should really settle it with her and let her include the rent as well."
Just spit it out."
Zi Su glanced at the other party sideways and scolded: "You don't know who Madam is? You suffered such a big loss today. Maybe you are thinking about how to get revenge. You still want to get the money back from her.
, it’s simply wishful thinking.”
Daukou stuck out her tongue and said, "Isn't that just what I said? By the way, what are your plans next, Miss?"
Zi Su also looked at Qing Wan with a curious look on her face, "My slave, it seems that the leases for these two shops are about to expire. Do you plan to continue renting them out, or keep them for yourself?"
