Chapter 129 Should we build a secret room?
Jiang Yu didn't show kindness indiscriminately. Liu Da's current physical condition was obviously weak due to malnutrition.

The same symptoms as my grandfather after he took the antipyretic medicine and got out of bed.

"What did the doctor say about Xing'er's health?"

Liu Da said, "The doctor said Xing'er had a sore, which was a wound caused by a wound."

"The wound is festering?"

"Yes."

Jiang Yu: "..."

When buying antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drugs, Sister Xiu kept talking about how good Chinese medicine is at regulating the body and how fast Western medicine can save lives.

Sister Xiu prepared life-saving medicine. Did she have foresight?

Zheng Xiu: "..."

In ancient times, beating with a stick was a common punishment, and it can be seen in many TV dramas.

Seeing the lady take out the big purse again, Liu Da and He happily knelt down, "Thank you, madam, for the magic medicine."

Jiang Yu's hand paused, she hadn't said anything yet (foolish)!
He took out a board of capsules from his purse and said, "Take it twice a day, in the morning and evening after meals, one capsule at a time.

If you can swallow it with water, do so. If you really can't swallow it, open the shell and dissolve it in water.

If the remaining half pill does not cause fever, do not give it to him anymore."

"Bang bang bang!"

Liu Da and his wife kowtowed to Jiang Yu. He even put down the child in her arms and asked the child to kowtow to the lady to express her gratitude.

Seeing Xing'er's stiff posture of bending over and kowtowing, Jiang Yu sighed and took out two more bottles and cotton swabs.
"Okay, stop knocking. First use this medicine to clean Xing'er's wound, then sprinkle the powder in the small bottle on it, and wrap it with a clean cloth...

If there is pus in his wound, use the liquid to disinfect the sewing needle..."

Jiang Yu told the couple the method of treating the wound that Qin Yue had suggested.

The couple kowtowed again, "Thank you, ma'am!"

Jiang Yu: "..."

If she had been a little more kind, would these two people have had holes knocked out of their heads?
"Go! Go find Nanny Jiang to settle down!"

"Yes!"

……

Not long after, Jiang Xianghui came with a shovel.

The two men went to the east room in the backyard, closed the door and dug a hole in the ground to bury the silver.

"Ayu, this won't work! Do you want to build a secret room?"

"When is it finished?"

Jiang Yu asked, "What should we do with the craftsmen after the construction is completed? Should we kill them?"

"What should I do?"

"Just dig a cellar."

Jiang Yu dug a hole in the ground in no time and buried the small box inside. "Let's take care of the trivial matters first. When things are on track, I will dig the cellar myself."

Jiang Xianghui went to the next door to return the shovel, and inquired about the prices of various shops, etc. Then she went back home, called the coachman and took two maids to go shopping.

After burying the silver, Jiang Yu returned to the inn. The house was in a mess, with only furniture but no bedding.

If she stayed in the mansion, the servants would be uncomfortable, and she would be uncomfortable too. It would be better for her to stay in an inn alone.

Of course, the bedding in the inn room was replaced with new ones.

……

The next day, Jiang Xianghui brought He to find Jiang Yu to buy cloth and needles and thread so that they could make clothes for Jiang Yu.

He saw Jiang Yu was about to kneel again, but was stopped by Jiang Xianghui, "What are you doing?"

He shed tears, "I want to thank you for your kindness, Madam. Xing'er's wound has begun to heal, and I also want to thank you for the food you gave me."

From last night to this morning, all the servants were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears, because the food they were fed by the mansion was a mixture of coarse and fine grains, and they had never eaten such good food in their lives.

Xing'er also got two boiled eggs this morning. She didn't know how to thank the lady, so she could only kowtow a few more times.

"Alright, alright, you should work hard in the future and you will be worthy of Madam's kindness."

Jiang Xianghui did not allow He to kneel again. After entering the cloth shop, Jiang Yu bought only the best quality cloth, because everyone in the mansion needed to buy new clothes.

She needed clothes urgently, but it was too late to make them, so ready-made clothes were the best choice.

He watched as her wife bought clothes and shoes for men, women, young and old, all of the same height and shoe size as her.

After returning home, she whispered to her husband, and Liu Da told her to shut up.

They are servants in the mansion, and their lives and deaths are in the hands of the Madam. Moreover, the Madam has done a favor to their family, so how could she say these things behind their backs?
Madam, have you forgotten the two government rules you just mentioned?
He quickly shook her head and said, "I'm not saying anything bad about Madam, I just think her behavior is a little strange. We should pay more attention to it and make up for it if we find anything wrong.

We are lucky to have such a kind and considerate master like Madam."

Liu Da said, "Don't say a word to outsiders."

He nodded vigorously.

……

Jiang Yu and her great aunt went to a jewelry store, and when they saw the prices, both the grandparents and grandchildren gasped.

The cheap ones start from one tael of silver and range up to ten taels.

Medium ones weigh between 10 and 50 taels.

The starting price for top quality ones is 50 taels.

The best ones will be invited to the VIP room upstairs, where the shopkeeper will personally deliver them for selection.

Jiang Yu held down the aunt, pointed at a white jade hairpin and a gold hairpin and said to the waiter with a disdainful look, "These are the two."

60 taels of silver. Jiang Yu didn't bargain or try it on. He just paid the silver bar and left.

She thought she had turned things around, but in fact she was still at the bottom of society.

Jiang Xianghui followed in silence. 350 taels of silver was all the remaining property of the Wu family. Compared with the jewelry shop, it was pitifully shabby.

Back at the inn, Jiang Yu encouraged his depressed aunt, and at the same time encouraged himself.

"Believe me, after our restaurant opens, we will definitely be able to move up to the second floor of the jewelry store."

Among the four classes of people, merchants are the lowest. If you want to go to the second floor, you must be outstanding among the merchants. I guess the owner of the jewelry store will look down on you.

But Jiang Yu refused to accept it. She believed that everything needed money as a foundation. Sister Xiu had even said that she was "rich enough to rival a country", but she didn't believe it. Couldn't she work hard to gain a status and identity different from that of ordinary businessmen?
After calming down, Jiang Yu began to teach her aunt how to put on makeup.

Since my aunt was her housekeeper, she couldn't be recognized by others or the Wu family.

Unexpectedly, the aunt's hands looked like feet, her eyebrows were drawn into caterpillars, and her lips were drawn into a bloody mouth.

Looking at the two caterpillars trembling on the aunt's face, Jiang Yu praised,
"If you are not doing this for appearances, but just to hide your identity, your makeup is already very good."

"Pfft!"

Jiang Xianghui couldn't help but burst out laughing and scolded, "I don't know where you learned this makeup technique. I'm an old lady, how can I be as smart as you?"

Jiang Yu compromised and said, "Change your clothes and hairstyle first. I bought that gold hairpin for you.

Call He over and I'll teach her. If she can do it, ask her to help you with your makeup every day."

"Can it be done?"

Jiang Xianghui looked at the pile of bottles and jars and asked, "Where did you get these from?"

"Grandpa knows, just ask Grandpa."

Jiang Xianghui: "..."

This is all the niece needs to deal with her.
"I'm worried that these things can't be seen by others."

"It's ok."

Jiang Yu was very confident. "She wouldn't dare to say anything. I still have her family's indentures in my hands!"

He came and learned that she was entrusted with an important task. She almost knelt again, "Madam, don't worry. I promise I won't say anything nonsense."

The embroiderer had very nimble fingers, and He had a very good brain and aesthetic sense, so she quickly learned makeup techniques.

What she learned was makeup, not imitation of Jiang Yu's makeup.

Jiang Yu also tried to teach her how to imitate makeup, but found that He had no talent at all, so she gave up.

"From now on, you will help Nanny Jiang with her makeup every day. The more imposing it is, the better."

"Yes!"
