Chapter 149 How did they do it?
Six days later, there were less than 10 taels of silver left. If the master didn't come, we could only hold out for 10 days at most.
The master left without saying a word, and he didn't dare to ask when the master would be back.
Just when I was worried, I heard the doorman yelling.
"What's up? Yelling and shouting? That's rude!"
"The master is back."
The concierge's face was wrinkled with smile.
Without having to see the housekeeper's sad face every day, they all knew that the housekeeper had no money just because he gave them a quilt and brown rice for every meal.
They have no complaints.
Because the master bought them all, and because the master gave them a home again.
They have lived here for half their lives and are really reluctant to leave this yard.
As long as the master does not abandon them and gives them food, they are happy.
"Is the master back?"
The old butler immediately ran out of the gate, "You damned old man, why don't you go to greet the master?"
Doorman Yang Laoliu: "..."
Yes! Why did he run to the mansion?
"Master, master."
Jiang Yu was just standing there looking at the plaque above the door when he saw the old butler running towards him at a speed that was disproportionate to his age.
"You slow down!"
Jiang Yu said unhappily, "Master, I can't fly anymore."
The old butler didn't care about the 'master's' squeeze, "It's good that the master is back."
"How's the mansion these days?"
As Jiang Yu spoke, she walked through the door, and the four people behind her followed in.
"Everything is fine."
There were people following the master, so the old butler didn't dare to tell the truth.
After entering the outer living room of the courtyard, Jiang Yu put down the small box and sat down, pointing out the embroiderer who might be color blind and the accountant who was implicated by the purchase and corruption.
"You two stay in Ying Mansion, and the other two stay for one night and leave with me tomorrow."
"Yes!"
The four of them responded with their heads lowered.
The old housekeeper: "..."
Another person?
Jiang Yu looked at the stunned old housekeeper, "Housekeeper, take them downstairs to make arrangements."
"master."
The old housekeeper looked embarrassed, "Not enough bedding."
"add."
Jiang Yu waved his hand at the old housekeeper, "Take the people downstairs and settle them down first, then ask someone to go out with you to buy everything that is missing.
Including two sets of clothes and one set of cotton clothes for each person, as well as the firewood, rice, oil and salt needed in the mansion.
Go quickly and call your apprentice. Really, there are so many people who are not needed, why are you, an old man, running around?"
The old butler grinned and went out to settle the four people. Jiang Yu counted out 75 silver bars with a distressed look.
With one thousand and two taels of silver, he was only able to provide settlement for the elderly, the weak and the sick in the mansion.
It must be paid for as soon as possible.
These old, weak, sick and disabled people should be arranged to work as soon as possible. This mansion is really not a nursing home!
After handing the silver bars to the old housekeeper, Jiang Yu left Ying Mansion again, “This time, Master, I gave you enough silver.
Don't cut back on their food. I'll arrange for the idle people to go out and earn money in the future. Don't even think about living in the mansion in your old age. No one can afford to support you, a burden."
"Yes!"
……
Carrying half a box of silver bars and a shovel from the gardener, Jiang Yu went to Yue Mansion.
If she wasn't so strong, the small shovel wouldn't be able to dig the soil.
Qin Neng is here, and she also wants to dig a basement. I wonder if she can dig two basements?
After burying the silver bars, Jiang Yu carried the small box and the shovel back to Ying Mansion.
After the bedding was delivered back, she took a set away. She had Yue Mansion to stay in and she didn't want to stay in the inn anymore.
The maid who tidied up the outer living room handed the two small wooden boxes to the old butler, because the master often carried these small boxes in and out.
The gardener also handed over a small box, and the old butler thought about it and put them all in the carriage.
The master should use a carriage tomorrow, right?
……
The next day, 'Mr. Chen' did not come. Instead, a friend of 'Mr. Chen', a young master who turned his folding fan into a palm-leaf fan, came.
The young master took out two indentures and said he was here to take away the embroiderer and the accountant that "Master Chen" had sold to him.
After the embroiderer and the accountant came out, the young master waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
The embroiderer and the accountant "..."
This young master who was walking under the sun and almost broke his folding fan, really bought their new master?
When they went to the carriage shop with their new master to rent a carriage, they saw the new master bargaining with others, and both the embroiderer and the accountant were worried about their own future. When they arrived at the Qin Mansion and heard the doorman flatteringly calling them "Young Master", they were slightly relieved.
"Where's Nanny Jiang?"
Jiang Yu asked the doorman.
"In the restaurant!"
The concierge followed and asked, "Should we call Madam Jiang back?"
"Need not."
Jiang Yu waved his hand without even turning his head, "That's what I asked."
"Master."
By the door of the hall, the embroiderer with poor eyesight was embroidering in the sun again.
"You can mend the embroidery inside the hall door. It will ruin your eyes in the sunlight."
The embroiderer was stunned for a moment, then bowed and thanked him, "Thank you, young master."
"Go call Liu Da over and give your eyes a rest."
"Yes!"
The embroiderer's eyes turned red and she retreated respectfully.
Liu Da came running over with sweat on his face, "Master, that family seems to be getting better."
"How did they do it?"
"I don't know."
Jiang Yu: "..."
If it is a muscle-regulating technique, it can be done quietly in the room and no one will notice it.
"Take these two people and make arrangements."
Jiang Yu pointed at the embroiderer and the accountant standing aside and said, "Tell the embroiderer to help He take out all the clothes in the mansion.
Then make a dress for a woman in her twenties using fine cotton cloth, making it exquisite, noble and elegant.
He is about the same height as me, but a little bit stronger than me."
Liu Da: "..."
Is the young master trying to dress up as a girl again? Is his master a man or a woman?
"Yes!"
"As for the accountant, do you think we should arrange for him to work in the restaurant? Or in the mansion? Or both?"
"Yes!"
When Liu Da went down, Jiang Yu was about to leave again, "Liu Da, I have something to do and will be back in a few days to take the Feng family away. Please inform them."
"Yes!"
"Next time if you dare to buy this mess of a person for me, I will sell you out."
"Yes!"
……
Jiang Yu returned to the village and met the gossipy woman again.
"Ayu, why did you come back?"
"Ayu, have you found your aunt?"
"Ayu, you took so much stuff with you, how come you're back in just three days?"
Jiang Yu: "..."
If grandpa hadn't been worried about her coming and going at night, how could she be in such a difficult situation?
"I'll be out again in two days. I won't be able to stay at home peacefully if I can't find my aunt."
The women repeatedly praised the Jiang family for their loyalty and righteousness, and praised Jiang Yu for her filial piety.
Jiang Yu: "..."
Am I filial? My aunt has become my nanny.
Jiang Yu spoke a few words to his grandfather and brother, letting them know that his aunt was doing well, and then he left.
Grandpa Jiang: "..."
There's something wrong with my granddaughter. Could it be that she got upset outside?
Jiang Jin: "..."
I will work harder and harder, and when I can help my sister, she won’t be so busy anymore.
……
Jiang Yu appeared in bedroom 502, put the stack of red deeds in his pocket into the drawer of the bedside table, then took his pajamas and went to take a shower.
When Jiang Yu walked out of the bathroom and saw Sister Xiu yawning in the living room, she felt embarrassed and said, "I haven't showered for four days. I'm going bad."
"fine."
Zheng Xiu yawned again, "Sleep? Or chat?"
"Go to sleep, and talk after you wake up."
"Then I'll take a day off tomorrow and go down to the third floor as soon as I wake up."
"Ok."
