The rural doctor bought a husband who was very treacherous

Chapter 136 2 The Prince Shows Good Will

After coming out of Qi Lingheng's house, Su Tang walked around the street for a long time and bought a lot of things, then carried them back to Meiyuan.

The gate of Meiyuan Mansion has been open since Su Tang left. The gatekeepers were waiting at the door. They saw Su Tang coming back carrying a bunch of things from afar.

Immediately, several people ran over and helped Su Tang take it. "Miss, let us help you carry these things."

Su Tang nodded in agreement and handed the large and small bags in her hands to the people. "Hey, how did you guys recognize me?"

Su Tang was wearing a veil now, and the moment she appeared in their sight, some people had already run over to greet her.

"Hehe, didn't you wear this dress when you left this morning? We all recognize it. Besides, there are not many people passing by Meiyuan in a day." A doorman explained to Su Tang with a smile.

Su Tang subconsciously looked at the man's arms. They were thick and strong. When he reached out to take Su Tang's package, Su Tang clearly saw the calluses on the man's palms, both of which grew at the base of the thumb.

This man is someone who often carries a sword, so it would be a bit of a waste of his talent to be a doorman.

As expected, there is no simple person in the Second Prince’s Plum Courtyard.

Soon, Chunmei and several others in the Plum Courtyard also quickly ran to the outer courtyard.

"Miss, you should take the servants with you next time you go out. If you buy a lot of things, you can ask a few servants to follow you."

After they took the things from the gatekeeper, those people also retreated to the gate in a very polite manner.

"Miss, why are you still wearing a veil?" Chunmei asked, looking at the moon-white veil on Su Tang's face.

"Well, I heard that the noble ladies in the capital all like to wear veils, so I followed the local customs for once."

Chunmei and the others looked at each other, and then she smiled and said, "How come we haven't heard of it? Is it a new trend recently?"

"I don't know. I just happened to hear someone talking about it on the street."

"By the way, is Aunt Zhao back?"

"After lunch, Aunt Zhao came back once. You were not there at that time. Aunt Zhao left a box and left, saying that she would be back before dinner."

Su Tang returned to her residence. Qiumei poured her a cup of tea, and Chunmei came over from the study carrying a box.

"Madame Zhao said that she should give this box to the young lady when she comes back. Can I help you open it?" Chunmei asked, holding the box.

"Open it." Su Tang took off her veil and put it on the table, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then raised her chin slightly to signal them to open the box.

Qiumei stepped forward to help open the box, which contained some papers.

Su Tang motioned for them to see what they were. Qiu Mei opened the topmost piece of paper and said, "Miss, this is the title deed to the Plum Courtyard. It has been transferred to your name."

"Oh?" Su Tang took the paper from Qiumei's hand. There were two bright red stamps on the paper, which must have been stamped today.

The name written on the title deed is Su Tang. I guess the Second Prince found out her name from asking the Qian family.

Su Tang put away the house deed. Since the name had been changed, she no longer refused.

There were several pieces of paper under the house deed. Qiu Mei looked at them one by one and said again: "These are the deeds of sale of the slaves."

Su Tang took the indentures and took a look. In addition to the indentures of the four Meis, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, there were also some names of men, who must have been the current slaves in this mansion.

The second prince gave her the house deeds and the personal deeds of these people as a gesture of goodwill towards her.

Su Tang raised her eyebrows and took the indentures of those people.

"Since you are all mine from now on, I don't care who you were slaves of before. If anyone betrays me in the future, I can sell you out or kill you at will."

As soon as Su Tang finished speaking, Chunmei and several maids who were cleaning up in the room immediately knelt down in front of Su Tang.

"My lady will be our master from now on, and we will never betray her even if we die."

I didn't expect that they would speak so in unison. It seems that they have received this kind of training many times before.

"Well, I said, as long as you don't betray me, it's good for you, it's good for me, it's good for everyone."

"Yes."

"Okay, everyone, get up, and do what needs to be done later. By the way, how much was your monthly profit before?"

Hearing this, several people stood up and stood respectfully.

Chunmei said, "To answer the young lady's question, the four of us, Chun, Xia, Qiu, and Dong, were originally second-class maids, with a monthly interest of one tael of silver."

Su Tang nodded slightly to show that she understood. After all, they were the second prince's maids before, and a monthly interest of one or two taels of silver was nothing.

"Then let's keep it as it is. Once I'm familiar with everything in Kyoto, I'll make changes based on your performance."

"Yes." Several people agreed again, and then continued to be busy with their own work.

Su Tang sat at the table, packing up the things she brought back today.

In fact, she could have put all these things back into the space, but it seemed a bit strange that she went out without bringing anything back. So Su Tang had no choice but to bring back the things she bought on the street.

"Miss, Aunt Zhao is here."

Su Tang was picking out a small box from the items she bought. She remembered that it was the body lotion she bought from the Rouge Shop.

Su Tang bought this just to see what kind of skin care products the women in Beijing use. She was thinking whether she could make a medical cosmetic and sell it in Beijing in the future. She believed that it would be more popular with women than this ordinary rouge.

Hearing Dongmei's announcement, Su Tang opened the small box and said to the outside, "Please let Aunt Zhao in."

Dongmei responded, and then the sound of Madam Zhao's footsteps was heard in the yard.

"Young master." After entering the room, Nanny Zhao saw Su Tang sitting at the table and immediately bowed her head.

"No need to be so polite, Madam Zhao." Su Tang raised her hand and motioned for Madam Zhao to stand up.

"It seems that the young master has bought a lot of things today." Madam Zhao walked to the table and glanced at the items spread out on the table. "There are also a lot of rouge in the palace. I will talk to the master after I go back today."

"No need. I usually only use the rouge I mix myself. I bought these just to see what scents the young ladies in the capital use."

Su Tang shook her head slightly, then opened the rouge box, picked out some with a small wooden stick on the table, put it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it gently.

"Okay. Today, my master asked me to deliver the title deed of the Plum Courtyard and the indentures of the maids and servants to you, young master. Did Chunmei and the others give them to you?" Madam Zhao smiled apologetically and asked as if she remembered something.

"I have put it away. When Nanny Zhao returns, please thank His Highness for me." Su Tang put down the rouge box in her hand, then looked up at Nanny Zhao who had been standing beside her.

"Yes." Madam Zhao nodded hurriedly in response. She suddenly felt that the delicate young master in front of her seemed a little different from the one she saw yesterday.
