Reborn, I was pursued by the Prince of the Broken Sleeves
Chapter 67 Not listening to advice
Most of the remaining ones were eaten by the old lady, so what’s the point of having them?
"Qingluan, I have more important things for you to do."
Su Manman came to the desk and picked up a pen to write a letter.
When she was eight years old, she was playful and climbed onto the palace carriage secretly, and was taken to a courtyard in the suburbs.
At that time, she was lying in the crack of the door and secretly saw Aunt Liu arguing with someone. During the tug of war, she pushed the person down and knocked him unconscious.
Later, Su Tinggui also came. The two of them talked about something, and finally they worked together to throw the man into the dry well.
When the man was thrown in, he casually pulled off the jade pendant from Su Tinggui's waist.
My eight-year-old self was so frightened that I turned around and ran away in panic.
Later, she was run into by them on her way back to the mansion.
They had no idea how she came to be there, or whether she had seen or heard anything.
The two men, feeling guilty, locked her up when they returned home.
Su Tinggui was worried, so he took out a whip and beat her continuously, asking her over and over again what she had seen.
She knew in her heart that if she told it, she would be dead.
So he insisted that he had sneaked onto the carriage, fell off halfway, and knew nothing and had no memory of anything.
After she was whipped and had a high fever, she had indeed completely forgotten about this matter.
But in this life, she remembered.
"Give this letter to Jie Yousheng. He knows what to do."
Just because she promised Su Tinggui not to tell anyone doesn't mean that others won't find out.
Qingluan took the letter and turned to leave the house.
Taohong boiled some medicine and Su Manman fed it to her mother.
She was weak and still in a coma.
Originally, she was not suitable for transportation at this time.
However, the floor of the house was covered with water stains, and it was damp and cold. The environment was too bad and not good for her condition.
"Please clean up. We can't live here anymore. We will move to Nishang Courtyard later."
Nanny Li was about to clean up the house when she heard this and asked in disbelief, "Miss, can we go back to the Nishang Courtyard?"
Nishang Courtyard, the lady has lived in that courtyard since she married into the Su family.
But since Su Jiaojiao came into the Su Mansion and the lady fell ill, she was asked to move out and let Su Jiaojiao occupy the yard.
In a flash, sixteen years have passed.
The lady has been living in this remote and dilapidated Cuixiang Courtyard, enduring the scorching heat in summer, the bitter cold in winter, and the harassment of mosquitoes, flies, rats and insects.
She never thought that without the support of her family, the lady would be able to return to Nishang Courtyard one day.
"My father has agreed. We will go later." she replied.
"But……"
Nanny Li couldn't understand, "Master loves Su Jiaojiao so much, how could he agree?"
"I certainly have my reasons."
Su Manman instructed: "Madame Li, you will be busy for the next two days. We will add some more staff when we return to Nishang Courtyard."
"Miss, these maids in the mansion are unreliable."
Nanny Li said angrily, "They all listened to Aunt Liu. We were away from the courtyard, and everything in the house was stolen, and there was nothing we could do about it."
"Luckily, Taohong, I brought the banknotes with me."
Taohong took out the banknotes from her sleeve and said, "Miss, let's go to the streets to recruit a few people and slowly train our own people."
The people on the street are a mixed bunch, and we don’t know their backgrounds, so we don’t dare to use them at all.
"Don't worry, I've summoned Chunhua, Qiuyue and the others in advance. Calculating the date, they'll be in the capital in about one or two days."
"Really?"
Tao Hong's eyes lit up, "With them here, I can worry less."
Over the years, she earned money, bought farms and shops, and also cultivated her own people.
Except for the two personal maids Taohong and Qingluan, the rest of the people work in the manor shop.
She didn't want them to get involved in the affairs of the Su Mansion, but now she is alone and weak and really needs help.
After a while, a maid came to tell her that the Nishang Courtyard had been cleaned up and the girl could move in.
Su Manman stayed with her mother and asked Li Ma and Tao Hong to go and take a look first.
Before the two could leave, the back door of Cuixiangyuan was pushed open.
Qingluan came in with two strong men and four little girls about fourteen or fifteen years old.
When Taohong saw them, she smiled happily and said, "The young lady just mentioned you, and you are here so soon.
As she called out to the people, she threw a basin of dirty water over the wall and cursed, "From now on, keep a close eye on it, to prevent someone's unleashed dog from running around all day."
Xinghua was splashed with dirty water, and was shocked and scared. She turned around and fled in a panic.
In Yixiang Garden, Old Madam Qian looked at the several pieces of gnawed ginseng residues on the plate on the table and fell into a painful dilemma.
This old ginseng is a hundred-year-old ginseng with amazing medicinal effects. It is really rare.
Originally, she could cut some and use it every day. It would be an excellent tonic for her body.
But just now, fearing that it would be snatched away, she anxiously stuffed a large piece into her mouth and chewed it several times.
Of course, that bitch Su Manman wouldn't want this ginseng that had been chewed and spit out.
Naturally, she didn't want something that was chewed and spit out.
Wouldn’t it be a pity to throw it away?
That is a rare medicinal herb, something that cannot be bought even with a lot of money!
After hesitating for a long time, she figured out one thing.
So what if you chewed it?
It wasn't something that had been bitten or chewed by someone else.
It’s her!
Could she still dislike being dirty?
Does she have a dirty mouth?
She is certainly not dirty.
After figuring this out, she felt instantly relieved.
"Auntie Lan," she called out, "Go and boil these broken ginseng into ginseng tea. I'll drink some later."
"This..." Nanny Lan wanted to remind.
She often makes herbal soups, so the amount of ginseng used must be a bit too much.
"What's wrong with you?" Old Madam Qian asked unhappily.
This lowly slave must be worried that the food she chewed and spit out was dirty, so he was unwilling to make ginseng soup for her.
"Even if the ginseng is broken, it won't affect the efficacy of the medicine."
The children and grandchildren in the house all gave her a cold shoulder, and now even the old woman around her was unwilling to listen to her.
Old Madam Qian was furious. "Go and cook it quickly."
Nanny Lan didn't move, her lips trembling, as if she wanted to remind him again.
Old Madam Qian raised her eyelids and scolded, "Madam Lan, are you old and your hands and feet are not convenient? If so, you should go back to your farm in the countryside to retire."
"Pfft!"
Nanny Lan was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and lowered her head. "Madam, it's not true. I just felt that..."
"You also know that you are an old slave..." Old Madam Qian was furious, "Get out."
She got angry at Aunt Lan.
When Mrs. Qian gets angry, she doesn't care about her relatives.
My life is worthless. If the old lady gives the order and beats me with dozens of sticks, I will die today.
Nanny Lan was so frightened that she dared not utter a word. She supported herself on the ground with her hands, struggled to get up, and walked out timidly.
Inside the house, Mrs. Qian's voice came, "Xinghua, Xinghua..."
Just then, Xinghua ran in from outside and brushed past Nanny Lan. She glanced at her and hurried into the house.
"Madam, Xinghua is back." She responded obediently.
"Go and boil these broken ginseng into ginseng soup." Old Lady Qian ordered.
Xinghua accepted the order and kowtowed, "Yes, I will go right away."
She stood up, picked up the plate of chopped ginseng, and nodded again, reporting, "Old Madam, I saw the eldest lady send Qingluan out. Half an hour later, she returned with two guards and four maids."
"That bitch actually has money to buy someone."
Madam Qian angrily asked, "Where on earth did she get the money?"
"It was sent by the guards of Prince Qi's Mansion last time."
"What on earth did this girl do outside?"
The more Madam Qian thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
I'm in a bad mood and don't like anyone.
"Go make some soup." She lay down on the couch and waved her hand, "I'll rest for a while."
After drinking the ginseng soup, you will feel much refreshed.
