She traveled through the book to become the prince's concubine? She chose to be the villain!

Liu Rumei asked her maid to set a trap, which puzzled Chuntao.

"Girl, why are we digging a hole?"

"Some people just like to bury silver in the ground."

Chuntao: ...What kind of special hobby is this?

Apparently Jiang Rou really had this hobby, as she dug out tens of thousands of taels of silver from the yard.

"We only want silver, house deeds and land deeds. We can sell the valuable jewelry for money, and give the large ornaments such as tables, chairs and benches to the old lady."

The three maids nodded quickly and understood.

The eldest girl only wanted good things, and sent all the junk back to disgust the old lady.

Liu Rumei looked at the house deed, land deed and banknotes and felt very happy.

Jiang Rou owned three shops and three thousand acres of fertile land, which was estimated to be worth forty thousand taels.

I have to say, Jiang Rou is really a person who loves living.

Of the money Liu Hanjun had given her over the years, she only kept 30,000 taels for herself, and used the rest to buy shops and land, just in case.

Because of this, I got a great bargain.

Jiang Rou thought that the indenture contract was just to control her and to vent Zhou Miaoyi's anger?

That's too much to think about. She doesn't care about Zhou Miaoyi that much.

She just wants the money!

Slaves have no private property, but she is Jiang Rou's master, so these things naturally belong to her.

That’s right, there is a secret behind Jiang Rou’s indenture contract, and Liu Rumei is her master.

"Miss, this adds up to tens of thousands of taels!"

Chuntao counted the banknotes with a smile on her face, looking very excited, a typical money-grubber.

"Well, they should all be here."

"But young lady, I still don't understand why you let them into the house?"

Xia Zhu was very curious. Although they made money today, they were still allowed to enter the mansion.

“Of course it’s because they are useful. I don’t want to enter the prince’s mansion, but what if Liu Rufu is willing?

And my good mother, she lives too comfortable a life, that's why she makes so much noise, it would be nice to find something for her to do.

As for my elder brother, isn't he self-righteous and thinks that his literary talent is unmatched? When the two meet, he will know his own weight."

Hearing this, Xia Zhu was stunned.

So you completely disregard the life and death of the lady and the eldest master?

"What about the second girl?" Dongqing asked curiously.

"That guy will behave himself if you cut off her money."

As Liu Rumei said this, she felt extremely happy thinking that the family members in the backyard would be busy.

Is your mother in love? Then let her eat more bitterness of love to satisfy her.

Are you arrogant because of your talent? Then I will show you what kind of person you are!

Of course, the main purpose is to prevent the scumbag father from having time to stare at me.

This backyard is so quiet. Look how proud he is of himself. He even helps the prince find a concubine.

"Come on, follow me to do a good deed."

After Liu Rumei said this, the three maids followed her to the Ministry of Revenue... and the Yun Tower outside.

Yunlou is a restaurant that is quite famous in Kyoto. The only thing it has a reputation for is its excellent food.

"Girl, we can't finish all these dishes!"

"Can't finish it? Then pack it up later. Xia Zhu, eat more and see if you can learn from me and make it for me when you go back."

Xia Zhu nodded quickly, she could do it!

After the three of them had eaten their fill, Liu Rumei took out five hundred taels of silver.

"Go find someone."

Dongqing nodded and left with the silver bills, while Xia Zhu was responsible for packing and didn't pay attention to anything.

"Miss, are you looking for the Minister of Revenue?" Chuntao asked curiously.

"The Minister of Revenue may not be interested in five hundred taels, but the Chief Steward should be able to appreciate it."

As Liu Rumei had guessed, the chief steward of the Ministry of Revenue had arrived.

Although he was a fifth-rank official, his annual salary was only five hundred taels.

If you suddenly get a windfall, you have to take advantage of it.

Besides, Marquis Jingning is looking for me. Could it be that I have some opportunity?

But he never expected that he did not see Marquis Jingning, but saw Marquis Jingning's eldest daughter.

Is this appropriate?

"Miss, this is Director Cao from the Ministry of Revenue."

Dong Qing said this and stood beside Liu Rumei. Liu Rumei glanced at Manager Cao and stood up to salute.

"No, you are too polite, young lady."

Although I was surprised that the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Jingning's mansion could move around freely, I have to say that this girl's etiquette was quite considerate.

"I asked you to come here today because I have something to hide."

Manager Cao was slightly stunned, then he pinched the banknotes in his sleeve and nodded calmly.

"Miss, if you have anything to say, just speak up. As long as it is within Cao's responsibility, I will definitely handle it for you."

Liu Rumei nodded and pushed the box forward.

After Chuntao opened it, she showed him the pictures one by one, which shocked Manager Cao.

These are the deeds to three shops and three thousand acres of land!

That’s a lot of money!

He is from the Ministry of Revenue, so he is naturally sensitive to money.

"Miss, the owner of this household, Jiang Rou, is she a member of your family?"

When he asked this, Liu Rumei handed him the indenture contract.

Manager Cao only took one glance and discovered that the indenture had not yet been stamped!

Even so, with Jiang Rou's indenture, as well as her fingerprints and signature, it should be correct.

"Miss, do you want to transfer all these to your name?"

Seeing Liu Rumei nod slightly, Manager Cao knew why someone found his door.

It's a bit troublesome, but not a big problem.

"Although the indenture has not been sealed yet, it's not a big problem. I can help you..."

"Oh, I knew this wouldn't be easy." Liu Rumei sighed.

Manager Cao: ...No, he didn’t mean that.

“Manager Cao, you don’t know that if I hadn’t had to, I wouldn’t have bothered you.

As an unmarried girl, I really shouldn't show my face in public. But you don't know the situation in Jingning Marquis's Mansion. My father can't even get out of bed now!"

Liu Rumei shouted loudly, then covered her eyes and cried.

Manager Cao was scared to death, but luckily he had opened the door of the private room to avoid suspicion. He was sitting far away opposite the girl.

He thought it was no problem, transferring ownership was no big deal, even if he was not given 500 taels of silver, that was no problem.

"Don't be sad, young lady. I can handle this!"

"Hey, as the saying goes, don't air your dirty laundry in public, but I really feel wronged!"

Manager Cao: ...Actually, he doesn’t really want to hear about your family’s dirty laundry.

He doesn't want to listen, but outsiders want to listen.

It was lunch time and many people outside were listening attentively.

There are not only people from the Ministry of Revenue here, but also people from the other six ministries, and even the Censor-in-Chief. After all, everyone needs to eat.

Liu Rumei made such a big noise, it would be impolite for everyone not to listen.

"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but these shops and fertile fields were all taken from my father's mistress's yard!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Manager Cao knew what the five hundred taels were for today.

It's not for transferring ownership, it's for me to act as a messenger.

But Marquis Jingning has a mistress!

"What! Marquis Jingning has a mistress!"

Manager Cao was very cooperative and he was responsible for creating the atmosphere.

What's the matter? The main thing is that the girl gave too much and he couldn't refuse.

The people outside also pricked up their ears, especially the censor, who took out his little notebook to write it down.

Although it's not a big deal that Marquis Jingning has a mistress, it's still worth it if you can get involved.

It's not easy for them, the censors. They have to find something to do when they have nothing to do, otherwise the emperor will think they are getting their salaries for nothing.

"Well, the two children of the concubine are now adults. By the way, have you heard of Liu Xiude? It is said that he studied at Qinglu Academy and has a good reputation."

Mr. Shuyuan: ...How come you ate the melon on your head!
