Since she intends to leave as soon as possible, Ziwei no longer stays in the room all day feeling sorry for the spring. She bears the grief of losing her mother and directs Jinsuo and others to arrange travel matters.

Ziwei is a soft-spoken and uncommon person, and she feels very guilty about dismissing the servants of the Xia family's other courtyard, so she returned their deeds of sale for free, and also distributed the An family's money.

Those servants who originally signed the death contract and thought they would die of old age in Xia’s family not only got rid of their slave status, but also got a sum of money. Will bless the lady and such kind words.

Ziwei listened to a large basket of thank-you words, saw their joyful expressions, was infected by their excitement, and smiled slightly: It feels so good to be able to help others!

Aunt Wang Shuwang was watching from the sidelines, secretly worried, it was so difficult to go out, I don’t know how much money it will cost to go to Beijing, now that the young lady is so generous in distributing the family wealth, if her father is not found, the money will be spent, so what? Do it?

Jinsuo stretched out his hand to hold Aunt Wang Shuwang, and shook his head slightly to prevent them from speaking: Ziwei is a person full of emotions, often disregarding her own situation, and helping others as soon as she gets hot-headed, but she was accused of being ruthless when she stopped her.Anyway, the money is not theirs, so why bother to be that bad guy?

Anyway, they also benefited from this opportunity - Ziwei also returned the three of them's contract of prostitution, so let Ziwei stop eating fireworks for a while.

Just as it was bustling, two tall and thin middle-aged men and women walked into the yard. The man smiled meanly, "Yo~ they are all here!" It was Ziwei's uncle, Master Xia, and aunt, Mrs. Xia who came.

Ziwei put away her smile and said displeasedly, "What's the wind today, why did it bring uncle and aunt here?" When mother died, they didn't even want to take a look.

There must be no good things if you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

"Girl Ziwei," Mrs. Xia raised a flattering smile, walked over and took Ziwei's arm familiarly, "Look at you, you've lost weight all this time! Jin Suo, remember to mend your young lady's body!" She yelled arrogantly, and then patted Ziwei on the back of her hand pretending to be pitiful, "We heard that you were going to sell this house, so we hurried over here. You are too young! I don't know the villains outside There are many! Rather than selling to those who don't know the details and are dubious, it's better to sell to your relatives! Isn't it? Master~" Mrs. Xia turned to seek Master Xia's support.

Master Xia nodded like pounding rice, "Yes, yes."

The weasel gave the chicken New Year greetings, no good intentions!When there is no benefit, he is not willing to give even a leg hair; when he wants to take advantage of others, he is pleasant and humble!

When Ziwei thought about it, a little impatience appeared on her face, and she said angrily, "Who is selling to? I just want to see who pays more!"

"Of course, as elders, we can't take advantage of our niece," Master Xia raised a smile and stretched out five fingers, "I'll come up with this number! How about it?"

Ziwei deliberately misunderstood and said, "5000 taels of silver?"

"No," Master Xia chuckled dryly, "Your uncle is poor, how can there be so much silver! 500 taels!"

Ziwei's complexion changed drastically. This other courtyard has carried countless memories of her mother and her. If it wasn't for tight money, it wouldn't sell it even if it cost 5 taels!Who knew that my uncle had the nerve to calculate this number?Yesterday the middleman came to offer 1000 taels of silver and she didn't agree!

Seeing that Ziwei's expression was wrong, Jinsuo quickly stepped forward to hold Ziwei and said in a low voice, "Miss, I have something to say." Then he pulled Ziwei aside to communicate.

"Jin Suo, what's the matter?"

Jin Suo thought for a while, and slowly expressed her analysis, "Miss, if this house is sold to someone else, it will be difficult for us to come back to see it later. If it is sold to Uncle, you can come back later Have a look; besides, if you sell it to someone else, don’t you feel sorry for whether it’s demolished and rebuilt or used for other purposes! But if you sell it to your uncle, you can ask him to keep it as it is!”

Ziwei is a smart person, she knows everything. After Jin Suo's analysis, her unbridled rationality immediately came back. She said unwillingly, "Then sell it to uncle, so as to keep the memory of my mother and me."

The reason why Jin Suo spoke for Master Xia and the others was also because of the same sickness——

More than ten years ago, the Xia family gave birth to an unmarried and pregnant Xia Yuhe. The reputation of the whole family was stinky, and the status in Jinan plummeted. No matter the man or woman in the family, they could not marry a good family.Xia Yuhe is a person immersed in her own world, hiding in the Xia family's other courtyard, and suffered little damage.

But other members of the Xia family were not so lucky. The ridicule from the neighbors, the pointing and pointing from the noble literati, anyone with any status would disdain to associate with the Xia family. Originally a modest temperament, but now it has been tempered into such a mean.

Really poor!

In the previous life, Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia were coerced by the queen and gave false testimony. After the deception was exposed, they were finally ended quietly by the royal family.

The entire Xia family was dragged down by Xia Yuhe, and Ziwei didn't even think about taking care of her when she became Gege, so it's not without reason that the Xia family hates their mother and daughter;

Leaving aside the gossip, this crape myrtle and uncle entered the living room to discuss the transfer of the house. Jin Suo went in with tea. After we parted happily, I secretly mentioned something to Master Xia, "Master Uncle, you know a thing or two about what happened back then. This time, Miss went to Beijing to find her father. If things go well, it will also be good for the Xia family."

Hearing this, Mr. Xia, who was slow to give money, immediately shut his mouth. He lowered his head in thought for a moment, then raised his head and said to Ziwei with a trace of sincerity and pleading, "Dad and I were also blinded by wealth back then. ... Sigh~ Now I don't expect you to bring back any benefits. If I can restore the reputation of the Xia family, then I will die in peace. Regardless of whether you succeed or not, don't come back. Those things, let it last forever Let's go. I really don't want to be someone else's gossip anymore."

Master Xia's eyes turned red, "Ziwei, promise uncle, never be your second mother again, okay?"

Ziwei, promise me, never be the second Xia Yuhe again!

Tears welled up in Ziwei's eyes, and her mother also said these words before she died!Every single word still echoes in my ears.

At the moment when the mother's turbid yellow eyes said that sentence, a persistent and sharp light burst out, as if wishing to shoot into her heart, and firmly imprinted on her heart; the mother's skinny hands, Holding her tightly, he didn't pass away peacefully until she agreed.

Reminiscent of the strange eyes of others these years, Ziwei somewhat understood the meaning of her mother's words, "Uncle," Ziwei got up and knelt down to Master Xia, "If there is anything wrong with my mother these years, I will apologize to you on her behalf It is." After finishing speaking, he knocked his head heavily three times.

Master Xia was filled with emotions. He turned sideways slightly, with a strong nasal voice, "After all, she is my sister. During the Ching Ming Festival, she is indispensable. I will always keep your mother's bedroom for you. Anyway, I still have a thought. .”

Ziwei was kind-hearted, and was very moved after listening to Master Xia's words. She wiped away her dislike and dissatisfaction with him before, and solemnly kowtowed, "Thank you uncle."

Master Xia reached out to help Ziwei, "It's all Xia's family, no need to thank you, get up!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and each other's hearts relaxed a lot.

"Miss, Uncle Wang said that the carriage is ready and we can leave at any time." When Jinsuo entered Ziwei's boudoir, Ziwei was wiping the piano in her arms with a clean cloth towel.

Seeing Jin Suo coming in, she turned her head and said to Jin Suo in a nostalgic tone, "This violin is a gift from my mother." Her slender fingers slid across the strings and made a melodious sound, "I don't know if there will be any more in the future." I will use this piano again to play the music written by my mother."

Jinsuo rolled his eyes secretly, and had to say, the wife is really a confused person, she taught Ziwei to learn those romances, but the housekeeper couldn't understand the same thing!It was okay when they were not married, but after they were married, they couldn't afford to be the mistress of a rich family. Even with the support of Qianlong's father, wouldn't they still be bullied by the women in the backyard of the Fulkang family?

Therefore, Jinsuo made a decision in his heart, if there is a chance, Ziwei must have a deep understanding of what money is cute!

She walked over and lightly snatched the piano out of Ziwei's arms and put it away, "Miss, I have something to say."

Ziwei was startled, and felt that Jin Suo was getting more and more unfamiliar, and she couldn't even refuse every word Jin Suo said!With a trembling tone, he said, "Say it."

"Uncle Wang said that if the journey is smooth, you can reach the capital in at most ten days. It's just—"

"Just what?"

"It's inconvenient to go out. We still wear mourning. Some inns think it's bad luck and don't like to accommodate people who wear mourning. Uncle Wang said, either we don't stay at the inn on the way, and squeeze in the carriage at night; or we Just take off the filial piety for the time being, and wait until the capital to observe the filial piety."

"This..." Ziwei thought for a while, but still couldn't make up her mind, so she asked Jinsuo, "What do you think?"

I am a servant girl, and the time to wear Xiao is different from yours!

Jinsuo thought of this in his heart, but he said devoutly on his face, "Aunt Wang Shuwang will take care of you all the way. If you always sleep in the open air, everyone's health will be overwhelmed, and it will be dangerous. Miss, why don't you wear some plain clothes?" When you have time, you can copy Buddhist scriptures, and when we arrive in the capital, we will take them to the temple and offer them to the Buddha. Seeing how sincere you are, the Buddha will definitely bless your wife and young lady!"

"so be it."

After agreeing on what to wear on the road, Jin Suo went around to stretch Luo Su's clothes. Because Ziwei was anxious to fulfill Xia Yuhe's last wish, the four of them set off on the second day when everything was ready.

Jinsuo supported Ziwei, and walked out of Xia's courtyard step by step. Ziwei looked back frequently with a look of reluctance, and Jinsuo persuaded, "Miss, don't look, it's important to hurry!"

Aunt Wang and Jin Suo boarded the carriage parked at the door with their luggage on their backs. "Sit tight!" Uncle Wang, who was sitting on the shaft of the car, waved his whip, "Drive—"

The clatter of horseshoes sounded, and the four of them slowly left the familiar place in the carriage and headed for an unknown distance.
