The Divine Doctor and the Crazy Concubine: My princess is very cool
Chapter 60: Poor Ghost, Shangguan Qingge
Chun'er packed up her things, had a quarrel with someone in the yard, and went back angrily.
Chun'er returned to her original residence and began to look for something in the drawers and cabinets. The maids who lived with her were all wondering why Chun'er came back.
"Chun'er, didn't you go to the eldest lady's place? Why are you back?" one of them asked.
"Don't mention it. No wonder the Madam and the Master don't like the eldest lady. There's really no comparison between the eldest lady and the second lady! The eldest lady is just crazy because of poverty!" Chun'er said angrily.
Several maids asked with a waitress mentality.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"I'm telling you, the young lady is crazy because of poverty. I've been staying at her place for almost a month, but today she asked me for sixty taels of silver! What did she say? I'm not her maid, I don't eat her food, use her things, and use the best medicine for me, but it cost sixty taels of silver! I looked at the medicine they used on me, and they were all of the lowest quality. How could they be so expensive! I was so angry that I came back!"
One of the nosy maids said.
"Chun'er, after all, the young lady saved you, so it's not too much to ask for some money!"
"I didn't say I wouldn't give it to her, but isn't this obviously a scam? It's not like I haven't bought medicine before. I tell you, the medicine she used on me cost at most ten taels of silver. Ten taels of silver is what I have saved up over the years, so I can give it to her. But she wants sixty taels from me, which is too much! Dong'er is the same. I helped her before, but she actually thinks sixty taels is not enough! How much do I earn? Sixty taels is like asking for my life!"
The maids all laughed secretly. These maids were not very good-looking, and Chun'er was considered good-looking. They were so happy to see Chun'er disfigured. Besides, Chun'er owed the eldest lady a sum of money now, so they enjoyed watching the fun!
Chun'er was complaining loudly, and one of them ran to find Liu to report the news.
Today Shangguan Qingyun was resting in his house and drinking tea with Liu.
"Oh? You mean, Shangguan Qingge is so poor that he even exploits his maids?" Liu asked.
"Yes, Madam, you asked for sixty taels of silver right away. Chun'er is so angry that she scolded the eldest lady in front of us!"
Liu nodded and asked the maid to go down.
"Mother, do you think there is something wrong with Chun'er?"
"I don't know for now, but this seems like something Shangguan Qingge would do. Didn't you see that a few days ago, when the court's salary was paid out, she was so happy that the corners of her mouth were about to crack to the back of her head, as if she had never seen money in her life." Liu said lightly.
"Mother, if I ask Chun'er to come and serve me, do you think Shangguan Qingge will get a reputation for mistreating servants?"
"Good idea, Yun'er is smart. Hongxiu, go call Chun'er over."
Hongxiu went away in response and brought Chun'er over after a while.
Liu and Shangguan Qingyun felt happy when they saw Chun'er's ruined face!
Liu was happy because the master would not even look at an ugly girl.
Shangguan Qingyun was happy because having an ugly person around her would highlight her beauty.
Chun'er knelt down respectfully and saluted. Liu and Shangguan Qingyun didn't let her get up, so she kept kneeling.
"I heard that you owe the eldest lady sixty taels of silver?" Liu asked.
"Madam, it was the eldest lady who cheated me out of sixty taels!" Chun'er said with resentment in her tone!
Liu knew that people die for money and birds die for food! These lowly people are all for money. If it weren't for money, who would sell themselves into slavery!
"This lady can give you sixty taels!"
"Really? Thank you, ma'am!" Chun'er kowtowed excitedly when she heard it.
"But, this lady's money is not taken for nothing."
"This..." Chun'er was a little embarrassed.
"Your face..." Liu glanced at Chun'er.
"My face? My face has always looked like this!" Chun'er said firmly.
"Then you go to the eldest lady..."
"Madam, Chun'er was taken care of by the young lady only because she was nosy. Chun'er just had a common cold. I didn't expect that the young lady would cheat Chun'er out of sixty taels."
Liu nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, you are a smart man. The Second Miss only has Hongxiu here, and there are no other capable maids. You should stay with the Second Miss and serve her!"
As she spoke, Liu handed Chun'er sixty taels of silver. Chun'er took the money, kowtowed a few times happily, and said a few words to thank the lady and the second young lady for their kindness before leaving!
"Hongxiu, go and keep an eye on her!" Shangguan Qingyun ordered Hongxiu.
Hongxiu followed Chun'er all the way to the gate of Shangguan Qingge's courtyard.
After a while, Hongxiu came back and told Chun'er and Dong'er what she saw, that they were fighting over money. Hongxiu did not add any exaggeration, but just repeated what she saw.
She was a little unhappy that the lady left Chun'er with the second young lady. Although she knew that the lady didn't like good-looking maids to serve her, the lady couldn't find any fault with her because she was sweet-mouthed, hardworking and obedient, and allowed her to serve the second young lady. But Chun'er also stayed, which made her feel a sense of crisis!
"Mother, it seems that Chun'er is not from Shangguan Qingge's side." Shangguan Qingyun said.
"Humph, no matter how good the relationship is, it can break up because of money. Didn't you say that you have fewer maids around you? Then keep Chun'er. This way you can still have a good reputation!"
"Yun'er knows, thank you mother!"
On the other side, Dong'er, who had fought with Chun'er, went to find Shangguan Qingge crying.
Shangguan Qingge was applying bruises medicine to the nanny. Today, when the nanny was trying to stop a fight, she was pushed down by Chun'er and her knee was bruised.
"Miss, wuwuwu~ Chun'er is such an ungrateful person, why does she treat us like this? We are so nice to her, wuwuwu~"
"Okay, stop crying. Did Chun'er give you money?"
"Give it to me!" Dong'er took out the sixty taels of silver that Chun'er had given her.
"Miss, just for sixty taels of silver, Chun'er is so heartless! Wuwuwu~cough cough~"
"Forget it. We can't influence her choice, right? Come, apply the medicine to Mammy!"
Shangguan Qingge knew that Chun'er had a younger brother because she asked Shao Yuan to check it out. Dong'er and Chun'er were not in the same batch, so it was normal for them not to know about this. In addition, selling someone to a brothel was not a glorious thing, so very few people knew about it!
Dong'er didn't know, so naturally he didn't understand the hatred in Chun'er's heart. It was better for him not to know, because if he knew, the plan would be easily exposed. Dong'er was straightforward and couldn't hide anything!
Dong'er began to resent Chun'er, thinking that she was an ungrateful person. Although sixty taels was a lot, the young lady was not a bad person and she did not have to give it. Even if Chun'er came to discuss it with her, she and Chun'er could have done more work together and the exchange would have been completed soon. Why did she just leave like that and say so many unpleasant words!
After this incident, whenever the two met, they ignored each other, and if they couldn't stand it anymore, they would just quarrel!
