Chapter 130 Another Way for the Granny to Make Money
Hearing this, Old Madam Sheng was quite surprised. She asked curiously, "Doesn't Xi-ge'er even have someone to serve him tea and water?"
The old woman quickly nodded and explained, "That's right, Madam. Only Liu Ma has been taking care of the Duke since he was a child. Since the Duke arrived in Tokyo, he has only asked Liu Ma to bring in water for washing his face."
"Oh...and who is this Liu Mama?" Old Mrs. Sheng frowned slightly and continued to ask.
"According to the old folks in the manor, there was a terrible disaster back in our hometown one year! Many people went hungry, and Liu Ma fainted from hunger by the roadside. Just then, the mistress happened to pass by and rescued her. Liu Ma was left all alone. To repay the mistress's life-saving kindness, she served her devotedly from then on. When the mistress passed away, Liu Ma was only just reaching marriageable age. At that time, our master originally intended to find Liu Ma a good marriage so she could have a grand wedding and a good life. But who could have imagined that no matter how earnestly the master tried to persuade her, Liu Ma would stubbornly refuse? She kept saying that the young master was still too young, and she didn't want to entrust him to someone else. So, Liu Ma stayed by the young master's side, serving him diligently." The old woman slowly recounted this story, her face full of emotion.
Hearing this, Old Madam Sheng couldn't help but nod gently and sigh, "Oh dear, what a kind and righteous woman! It's just a pity that this has delayed her own marriage."
The old nanny quickly replied, "That's right. The old master has tried to persuade Liu Ma many times, but Liu Ma always refuses his kindness, citing the master's dying wish. That's why all the old people in our Jin family respect Liu Ma so much."
Upon hearing the news she had been longing for, a barely perceptible hint of joy flashed in Old Madam Sheng's eyes. She then subtly gave Wang Ruofu a look. The young lady immediately understood her mother-in-law's meaning and quickly turned to the maidservant beside her, whispering, "Go and fetch that newly made silver ornament from my dressing case."
Before long, the maid returned quickly, carrying a beautiful silver ornament in both hands, and carefully handed it to Wang Ruofu. After receiving the ornament, the lady of the house walked up to the old woman with a smile on her face, gently placed it in her hand, and uttered words of gratitude.
The moment the old woman saw the gleaming white silver ornaments, her eyes lit up, and her smile blossomed like a blooming flower; she was so happy she could hardly stop smiling. As she happily tucked the ornaments into her bosom, she began to tell a long, detailed story about the Jin family.
However, having worked for the Jin family for many years, the old woman naturally knew what could be said and what should never be revealed. Therefore, during her narration, she skillfully glossed over the parts involving the Jin family's privacy or secrets, only picking out some trivial but interesting things to tell everyone.
