The abandoned wife married into a wealthy family, and the scumbag father wailed every night
Chapter 158 Time and Space Overlap
"Sister, you are not injured today, right?"
Xie Yichen was still a little worried and asked her with some concern.
"I'm fine. You can't beat me, let alone that weakling Luo Jiaojiao!"
Xie Yiyao no longer cares about who is the boss between her and Xie Yichen.
She could calmly accept Xie Yichen calling her sister, but her face was full of contempt when Luo Jiaojiao was mentioned. How dare they bully her mother? Did they think that Xie Yiyao was dead?
After hearing what Xie Yiyao said, Xie Yichen's frown relaxed.
The brother and sister have been living and eating together since they were young and have never been separated for such a long time.
Xie Yichen had no schoolwork today, so the brother and sister gathered together and chatted endlessly, from interesting things at the banquet to the cats and dogs on the street, exchanging the gossip they knew in the capital.
The brother and sister became more and more excited as they talked. The two little ones' faces were flushed and their eyes were shining with gossip.
Gu Yingxue saw the two little guys talking to each other in whispers, and from time to time they showed each other an expression of understanding, and then the two of them smiled slyly.
Gu Yingxue's uneasy heart somehow relaxed, and she shook her head with both anger and amusement. These two naughty kids really fight when they fight, and really get along well when they are nice.
"Sister, this noble family has really strict rules. I get 200 taels of silver every month, and I don't know how to spend it!"
Xie Yichen looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he followed Xie Yiyao to her yard and whispered to her.
He had never seen so much money before and had always wanted to share this excitement with his sister.
Today, he finally got the chance. He didn't have to go to school or follow Xie Tingzhou for "training", so he talked to Xie Yiyao excitedly.
Xie Yiyao was somewhat shocked:
"He actually gives you 200 taels every month!"
She had long known from gossip that the monthly salary for the legitimate daughter of an aristocratic family was 10 taels, while the monthly salary for a concubine's daughter was 5 taels.
Because the legitimate son has to go to school and socialize, he usually gets 20 taels of silver per month, while the illegitimate son gets 10 taels of silver per month.
The Xie family was very generous to her and her brother. They gave her brother 200 taels of monthly silver and herself 100 taels of monthly silver.
It must be said that the Xie family has done well enough for her and Xie Yichen, two children who are not related by blood.
It seems that Xie Yichen has become more calm and reserved during this period of time.
Xie Yiyao knew that although Xie Tingzhou seemed to dislike her brother on the surface, he actually treated him as his own son and was training him.
"Brother, give this to Xie Tingzhou when you see him next time."
Xie Yiyao pretended to take out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve, but in fact she took it out from the medicine shelf in her spiritual plant space.
There are three marrow cleansing pills in it that she intended to give to Xie Tingzhou as a thank-you gift, but she never found the chance to give them to him.
After all, he gave me and my brother a shop, and I couldn't thank him at all or express my gratitude.
"Will this expose you and let him know that you have something good in your hands?"
Xie Yichen was somewhat reluctant to give it.
Although he admitted that Xie Tingzhou was indeed very good to him, he still had to be cautious when it came to his sister's safety.
"Don't worry, he is a love-brained person. He wouldn't dare to do that with our mother around."
Xie Yiyao looked confident.
She still trusted Xie Tingzhou very much and knew that Xie Tingzhou would not harm herself or her brother.
"Brother, let's split these banknotes in half."
Xie Yiyao handed Xie Yichen the silver note of ten thousand taels that Xie Tingzhou had given him.
"I don't want it. I still have a lot of banknotes here!"
Xie Yichen took out a pile of banknotes and waved them in front of Xie Yiyao, who was stunned:
"Brother, you haven't spent even a tael of silver in the past three months?!"
"Everything I eat and use has been prepared by someone. Is there no place to spend money?"
Xie Yichen had a look of confusion on his face, and Shuangxi and Shuangfu, who were following behind him, hung their heads with bitter expressions on their faces.
Woohoo~
Who in the family understands?
Following a stingy master!
Three months! Three whole months!
They have never seen a single penny reward from their master!
Shuangxi and Shuangfu touched their empty wallets and felt like crying but had no tears!
In the past three months since they followed their master, they were so poor that they didn't even dare to go to the big kitchen to add food.
Every day they have to eat the communal meals that everyone else eats, and their mouths are so dry that they feel like birds are coming out of their mouths!
In fact, the food for the servants in the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion is already the best in the capital, but who wants to eat from the same pot all the time? They also want to improve their food from time to time!
Who could believe that they, as personal servants of the eldest grandson of the Yongchang Marquis, had obediently eaten the communal meals for three months!
I haven’t even had a stir-fry yet!
If this gets out, people will definitely think they are talking nonsense!
Even those gossipers in the kitchen spread rumors that they were going to get married and save money for their wives.
They said they couldn't bear to eat any meat. They must have set their eyes on that maid and were trying their best to save money!
God knows, they can barely feed themselves, how can they afford to feed another one!
They simply met a stingy master who was impossible to find no matter where they went!
Xie Yiyao glanced at Shuangxi and Shuangfu who were following their brother with their heads down, and quietly pulled Xie Yichen aside:
"Brother, are these two servants still devoted to you? Are the servants in your yard still obedient?"
Xie Yichen looked puzzled:
“They are so devoted to me!”
Xie Yiyao felt relieved when she saw that the servants in her brother's yard and the personal servants did not slack off because of her brother's stinginess.
Xie Yiyao said to Xie Yichen in silence:
"Brother, among the noble families, the masters usually give their personal servants a reward of one hundred to two hundred coins a month, and give other servants a reward of dozens of copper coins. If you ask them to run errands for you, you have to give them a few copper coins!"
This was the first time Xie Yichen had heard of such a rule, and he looked at his personal servant in confusion.
Shuangxi and Shuangfu looked at him with tears in their eyes, as if they were expecting something!
Xie Yichen's expression was somewhat awkward:
"And... we still have to give them a reward."
He really doesn’t know!
Double happiness, double blessing: Master, do you understand now? ! ! !
Xie Yichen touched his nose and took out two small coins from his purse and gave one to Shuangxi and Shuangfu:
"You two didn't even bother to remind me!"
Shuangxi and Shuangfu stared at the silver with shining eyes and couldn't help biting it.
Then his eyes narrowed into a line from laughing, a full two taels of silver!
They are going to have pork knuckle tonight!
Add another two ounces of beef!
Have another drink or two!
The two were so happy that they were about to kowtow to Xie Yichen, but were stopped by Xie Yichen. Influenced by Xie Yiyao, he also didn't like people kneeling to him.
Xie Yiyao looked at the two servants acting funny and knew that they were good people.
This should be the lively and clever servant that the palace specially selected for his brother based on his personality.
My brother’s personality is sometimes too dull. He becomes lively only in front of her. He is very frugal with words in front of others.
That's good. With these two servants, my brother won't be so bored anymore. The Xie family has really put a lot of effort into training my brother.
"Sister, I plan to take the Tongshi exam next year. In the future, there will be a place for me, Xie Yichen, in the court of this great Deng! Although we don't have a father, don't worry, I will definitely protect you and mother. I will definitely let you live a richer life than those noble ladies with fathers in the capital!"
Xie Yichen glanced at Xie Yiyao, as if he had made some kind of decision, and spoke to Xie Yiyao with a firm face.
After hearing what Xie Yichen said, Xie Yiyao's brain buzzed and she stared at Xie Yichen blankly.
"Sister, I plan to participate in the base selection next year. I will definitely have a place in the Star Core Base as Gu Yichen! Although we don't have a father, don't worry, I will definitely protect you and mom. I will definitely make you live a happier life than those girls with fathers in the upper city!"
The same words were said to me again by my brother after two years of time and space!
Xie Yiyao stared at Xie Yichen in a daze. The young man in front of her looked like her brother in armor from her previous life. They had the same resolute expression, only the clothes they were wearing were different.
