A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!
Chapter 70 Don’t Believe Everything You Know
After seeing Mother Yang off, Ji couldn't help rubbing her forehead.
Sitting on the rose chair, with his other hand resting on the armrest, he remained silent for a long while.
The Lu family sent Mother Yang back. When they saw Ji's behavior, they knew that the lady had always been competitive and looked down on her step-mother-in-law, Mrs. Su. Now she had to speak well of Mrs. Su for her niece. Isn't this asking for her life?
The Lu family, however, came forward with a smile on their faces.
"Madam, do you feel uncomfortable speaking up?"
Ji sneered, "The second girl is my niece, how can I not wish her the best?"
"But we can't just believe everything we hear, right? I'd rather ask the imperial physician for help than ask the old lady for help! The old lady just got some prescriptions from somewhere and gave them to the servants, doing some small favors. The servants in her yard are short-sighted and just flattering her, but why are they spreading rumors in our house? And everyone in my family knows about it!"
"Let alone if I ask the old lady for help, she might not give me the face. Even if she did, she would get the sea medicine from somewhere and give it to the second girl, and it would not work. Wouldn't it be a waste of effort? It would make people laugh at me!"
Ji was full of complaints, and when Lu heard the words "spreading rumors", his eyelids jumped.
Her little grandson got the medicine from the old lady, and it really worked.
She didn't dare let Ji think about this matter carefully.
"Madam, this is just a small matter. Madam is busy, so there is no need to go to Qingshui Lane in person. Just leave this matter to me, this old servant!"
Ji turned his eyes to the Lu family, "You're going?"
That old lady is very cunning now. Last time when the family was divided, they didn't guard against her and their eldest branch suffered a lot.
This time I went to ask for medicine for my mother's family's affairs. How could the old lady not say something sour and weird to my face?
If we only send a servant over, will the old lady do it?
The Lu family smiled and said, "I will go find Madam Jiao and give her a package of snacks, two pieces of fine cloth, and a pot of old wine. I heard that the old woman likes this. If you coax her into doing this, and she mentions it to the old lady, then we will know whether it will work or not, right?"
Ji listened and nodded slightly.
What the Lu family said makes sense.
Although the Lu family's past also represented her, it was still a little better that she didn't have to face the old lady's smug face in person.
"Then why don't you go to Qingshui Lane?"
The Lu family nodded and said, "I'll leave this to you, old slave!"
Ji let out a long sigh and leaned back. "Then I'll leave it to you. Go to Diecui to ask for two pieces of fine cloth and two taels of silver."
The confidant who works for Ji is from the Lu family, but the one who is in charge of the warehouse is the eldest maid Diecui.
Although these two taels of silver and two pieces of fine cloth were not much, they were enough to appease an old woman like Madam Jiao.
The Lu family immediately went to collect the silver and cloth, and went back to their home after leaving the mansion.
The daughter of the Lu family was surprised to see her own mother coming back when she was on duty.
"Why did you come back at this time, mother?"
The Lu family laughed and said, "Aren't you planning to run errands for Madam and go to Qingshui Lane?"
After briefly talking about the story of the second daughter of the Ji family, the daughter of the Lu family couldn't help but sigh.
"This is such an unfortunate coincidence! The wedding is next year!"
"But does the old lady have this kind of medicine?"
She had seen someone cure his sore lips, heard of someone curing a cold, and even someone curing a poisonous sore on his body...but she had never heard of anyone curing their face.
"If there is any, why not just ask?"
The daughter of the Lu family saw what the Lu family was holding in their arms.
"Is this cloth a gift for the old lady?"
Even though she was just a housewife who had never seen the world, she knew that this gift was a little too cheap, right?
"No, no, no, this is for Aunt Jiao."
"I'm not a fool. If I'm going to give this to an old lady, I'm afraid she'll get beaten up!"
"In addition to the two pieces of fine cloth, there are also two taels of silver!"
The daughter of the Lu family listened, her eyes flickering, "But these two taels of silver don't seem too much to buy gifts, right?"
But she had heard that the servants at the old lady's side were living a comfortable life now, and everyone's monthly salary was higher than before.
The boys and girls in the companion's house all get paid!
As the most important person around the old lady, how could Aunt Jiao be interested in such a thing?
The Lu family sighed.
"Who says it isn't?"
"My wife is too frugal nowadays..."
As she spoke, she could not help looking around, fearing that someone might have heard what she said.
The Lu family's daughter nodded and muttered softly, "It's as if they have exchanged personalities."
Although it didn't say who replaced whom.
But the mother and daughter are so connected in heart, who couldn't hear it?
But Lu's eyes rolled and he suddenly smiled.
"Silly girl, why should I take on this thankless task when you are your mother?"
The Lu family girl opened her mouth and asked, "Then?"
"Mother Yang said that as long as I handle this matter well, the Ji family will definitely benefit from me!"
"The gift to Qingshui Lane was naturally paid for by the Ji family!"
Really, the emperor has plenty of hungry soldiers.
If she only received this little bit of money and got the job done, wouldn't it be a waste of her time and effort?
If she just revealed a few words, wouldn't Mother Yang, who was trying every possible way to save her seriously ill daughter, agree without hesitation?
So by making this trip, she gained favors from both sides and might even make a lot of money.
The Lu family's daughter chuckled and gave a thumbs up, "Mother, you are this!"
The Lu family was very proud and handed a tael of silver to their daughter, "Go buy two packages of snacks from Fushengfang. There is the old wine hidden by your father, wait for me to get it!"
Then she arranged for her daughter-in-law, "Make a bowl of hot soup noodles and two eggs. Mother will have to run a lot of errands today!"
Wait for the Lu family’s daughter to come back with snacks.
There were already quite a few gifts placed on the table in the main hall of the Lu family.
There were so many boxes, big and small, it was dizzying to look at.
Upon asking, it turned out to be sent by the Ji family.
The Lu family was eating soup noodles without raising their heads. "Your sister-in-law made hot soup noodles. There are more in the pot. Go get a bowl. When you're done, come with me to Qingshui Lane."
The Lu family's daughter's eyes were full of surprise, "Mother, you want to take me there?"
When the Lu family saw that their daughter-in-law was not around, they lowered their voices and gave orders.
"I heard that the servants at the old lady's place, those who are skillful with their hands can take on some work of making hair ornaments and cloth tigers. They all make a lot of money and are very happy. Now we live a simple life here and don't have any extra income. You are skillful with your hands. The shoes you made last time were praised by Madam Ji. This time when we go there, mother and daughter may even get some extra benefits..."
What are the additional benefits?
Of course, she wanted to see if she could find a job for her daughter.
The daughter of the Lu family was full of admiration. She responded and hurriedly went to serve the rice.
