Before Wang Jinyi could think about it, she heard the sound of footsteps again.

Wang Jinyi quickly folded the paper and tucked it into her belt. When the door opened, Zhu Yu's little face was flushed and beads of sweat were hanging on the tip of her nose.

Wang Jinyi walked towards her and Zhu Yu quickly turned aside. Wang Jinyi said as she walked:

"Zhu Yu, can you ask my mother if she has time? I want to ask her for advice now."

Zhu Yu left. When her mother entered Wang Jinyi's room, she saw her daughter drinking water obediently and shouting with a smile:

"Mom, drink some water."

Mothers always think that their children are the most sensible and caring. In fact, this feeling is sometimes quite accurate.

Before her mother could say anything, Wang Jinyi looked at Zhu Yu left and right, but her head maid remained indifferent.

: Well, just say it frankly.

"Zhu Yu, you guys go out first. I want to talk to my mother."

When Zhu Yu heard this, he was about to leave, but he turned back to bow to the lady and the young lady, and was about to leave again. He watched the wet nurse leave the room by herself before he followed her.

The mother looked at her daughter with her hair in a bun, always like a little adult, handling things in an orderly manner, pursing her lips and nodding.

"Jinyi, is there something wrong?"

"Mother, Zhu Yu's second brother is here. I want to bring some things for them and have a car take him out of the city."

"Jin'er, do you want to reward the servants?"

"No, kind of!"

"Jin'er, no matter the reward or punishment, there must be a reason. Don't just act on your own whim. That would not make you a good master."

"Mother, just consider it as a reward from Madam Xu, okay?"

"Jin'er, if you want to thank Nanny for protecting you with her life, you should reward the entire Zhao family, not just Zhao Wuya's family. If you think Zhu Yu deserves a reward, you can reward her directly. Think about it, which one is better?"

Wang Jinyi thought for a moment and asked, "Can I meet Zhu Yudi's second brother?"

"Can't!"

Oh! I knew it was not allowed, I shouldn’t ask. Wang Jinyi thought: It’s over, I can only hire people blindly.

"If you want to reward, you also need to know what people need, and you need to be moderate and useful."

Wang Jinyi nodded deeply from the bottom of her heart.

"Mother, I don't know how to reward people."

"You can ask Zhu Yu, but ordinary people need food and clothing, the more practical the better."

"Well! Mother, let Zhu Yu come in."

Hearing the master calling him from inside the room, Zhu Yu came in and bowed to the two masters first.

"Madam, miss."

Wang Jinyi thought for a moment and asked:

"Zhu Yu, how does your family survive?"

"Miss, farming. My eldest brother used to work at the Cheng family. He had a monthly salary and could help the family. At that time, my second brother could still study."

The mother looked at her daughter and talked with Zhu Yu, and finally they realized that food was the best reward.

Mother asked Zhu Yu to leave.

"Mother, can I give them food?"

"Very good, you have done a good job, I will do the rest."

"Mother, can you let Zhu Yu send his brother off?"

. "This is fine."

Wang Jinyi finally got an opportunity.

Just as Zhao Liuzhu was in the lobby looking at the pastries his sister brought, his stomach growling with hunger and he didn't know what to do.

Qing'er came with Zhu Yu, and Zhao Liuzhu stood up and saluted. The person who came was wearing the same clothes as his sister, so she should be a maid, right? But judging from her aura, she looked like a master.

His sister was very cautious in front of this girl and even spoke in a low voice, so Zhao Liuzhu didn't dare to address her casually and could only stand there.

Qing'er took one look at the young man and concluded that he was more scheming and calculating than Zhu Yu, and not like an ordinary farmer's child. She then told him about the reward from the master's family and said that the young lady agreed to let Zhu Yu go to give the boy away.

Zhu Yu knelt down to thank him.

"Mrs. Xie, Miss Xie, Sister Xie Qing'er."

When Zhao Liuzhu heard this, he quickly followed suit and expressed his gratitude.

After leaving No. 9 Yongxing Lane, the brother and sister got on a small blue cloth carriage, which was already loaded with a bag of grain, a piece of pork, and two cartons of snacks.

After a quick look, a large bag of food contained five dou of rice. The brother and sister looked at the things in the car and were a little surprised.

Zhao Liuzhu asked:

"Wu Ya, should I kowtow to the Madam and thank her?"

Zhu Yu quickly grabbed her brother and lowered the curtain.

"Second brother, the young lady has something for you to do."

For fear that the driver would hear, he covered half of his mouth and whispered to Zhao Liuzhu, giving him a general idea of ​​what the young lady meant.

"Brother, do you remember it?"

"Why are you so sneaky?"

"You don't understand. We can't do business in our house. Miss has set up her own account now. I'm afraid she will need money in the future, so I thought of this idea. You have to do it well."

Zhu Yu added one more sentence at the end,

"I feel like the lady thinks you can do it, you have to do a good job."

The carriage slowly drove out of the inner city and arrived at the city gate. Zhu Yu handed the copper coins given by Qing'er to his brother.

"This is the money given by the master to hire a car. I have to go back now. You hire a car and go home. In the next few days, finish the things that the lady asked you to do as soon as possible.

You must do it! It’s best to write it down, put it in the things my mother gave me, and then send it to the concierge, and say it’s something from home for me.”

"Well, I've got it in mind. I understand. I'll definitely get everything done. Please don't worry, young lady!"

When Zhu Yu returned home with the Wang family's carriage, Wang Jinyi was sitting at the door of the room she had chosen, looking at the greenery, her mind racing in her past life:

It was the eve of May Day that year.

After class, I was about to go to the dormitory and wanted to call Chen Zhiyuan, when I heard my roommate shout:

"Someone is waiting for you downstairs."

My mind was on the phone at the time, so I went downstairs while talking on the phone.

"Hey, it's me."

A muffled laugh could be heard faintly from the receiver.

"Hey?"

Wang Jinyi was a little surprised, but she kept hearing the continuous muffled laughter. When she walked out of the girls' dormitory building, she saw the tall figure.

Chen Zhiyuan was still holding the phone in his hand, carrying a backpack and wearing a jacket with the Chinese character "瑾" embroidered on it. He was wearing a white T-shirt underneath. The logo on the T-shirt was designed by Chen Zhiyuan himself.

In the middle of the logo is the Chinese pinyin "知爱" in capital letters, in the upper left corner is the English cursive "我的", and in the lower right corner is an oval seal with the two characters "瑾仪" printed in white lines in small seal script.

From then on, all of Chen Zhiyuan's white T-shirts were of this style. When he hugged me, even when the stars were shining in the car, he was still wearing the white T-shirt with that logo printed on it...

When Zhu Yu returned to the backyard, he saw the young lady staring at the shady green trees with tears in her eyes.

Zhu Yu was stunned for a moment, then hurried over.

"Miss, ma'am..."
