I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times Chapter 65

Chapter 65 Missing

Ling Chu didn't pay attention to the second lady's anger at all.

 She has no feelings for this family.

As for what she said just now, she said it deliberately for everyone to hear.

Although the Ling Mansion was demoted to the rank of common people and could no longer serve as officials, life would still go on.

Her father and her second and third uncles can either engage in business or do accounting work. The eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother are not young anymore, so they should also take some responsibilities.

As for the female relatives in the house, they can make some needlework and help out to some extent.

 A big family, with hands and feet, as long as they work hard, they will never die of hunger.

But if you are still holding on to your airs and can't let go of your figure, then just wait for the northwest wind.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Ling Hao sighed, "Grandma, the eldest sister is right. As long as our family works together, we will be able to overcome the current difficulties. We all have skills and feet, and we can always find ways to make money. "

Mrs. Tai always valued her eldest grandson, and nodded happily after hearing this, "Brother Hao is right. As long as the family works together, the current predicament will be able to be overcome safely. From now on, everyone will take turns doing the work in the house... "

The matters decided by the Grand Madam never allowed anyone to refute them, so even if the Second Madam was dissatisfied, she could only endure it.

The second girls, Ling Hui and Ling Qing, gathered around the Madam with smiles, saying that they would work hard to make more female celebrities, and when they earned money, they would buy maids for the Madam and come back to serve her.

　　Coaxed the lady to smile from ear to ear.

Lingchu didn't pay much attention to this, just made an excuse, and took the two maids back to her yard.

 Liu Xiangju and Xia Zhi both knelt down and solemnly bowed to Ling Chu, officially treating her as their master.

Ling Chu did not refuse, "From now on, you can stay with me with peace of mind. You two are my maids. From now on, you only need to work as servants in my yard. As for other people in the house, don't pay much attention to them."

What happened in the flower hall earlier was seen by the two maids. Although I had doubts in my mind, I didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Although these two are serving as maids for the first time, they also know that the most important thing in being a servant is loyalty. Servants must abide by whatever the master says.

Ling Chu saw the two of them agree and didn't say much. After arranging a place for them to stay, she went back to her room to rest.

 But not long after, Liu Xiangju came to her anxiously.

"Girl, can I ask you for two days' leave first? When I go back to finish my mother's funeral affairs, I can come back as an errand?"

 Liu Xiangju did not know that Ge Shi was dead, and her ghost was taken away by Ling Chu.

Lingchu didn't intend to let her know.

Even though Ge Shi is her mother, she is now a puppet soul. If she gets close to Liu Xiangju and taints her with Yin Qi, her body and luck will be damaged.

Although Gurdjieff loved this daughter, as a mother, she did not want her child to be harmed in the slightest.

 Ge's family is dead and Liu Xiangju wants to take care of her funeral affairs, so naturally Ling Chu will not stop her.

That Liu Dongluo was a gambler who drove Ge to death, but I don't know if he arranged for her funeral.

When Ling Chu saw that there was nothing going on around him, he simply asked Xia Zhi to follow her back to help.

"Take these fifty taels back, settle your mother's affairs, and then come back as an errand."

Liu Xiangju did not expect that Ling Chu would approve her leave and give her a sum of money.

 She didn't want Ling Chu's money at first, but thinking that now she was penniless and her father had lost all the money at home, she hesitated, wiped her tears, and took the banknote.

"Thank you, girl. I will treat this money as a loan from the girl. But I don't have the money to pay it back. Can it be deducted from the future monthly payment?"

"You don't need to pay back this money. It's a memorial gift from me. Just take it with peace of mind."

Xia Zhi originally followed Ling Chu and had been feeling uneasy, but at this moment, her heart suddenly calmed down. The girl is a good person. She not only rescued them from the traffickers, but also took her and Liu Xiangju as maids.

 Liu Xiangju's mother died, and the girl paid so many tributes to her.

She believes that as long as she does her job well and serves the good girl faithfully, the girl will not treat her badly.

Ling Chu didn't know that he had been given the good guy card by the maid.

After the two maids left, while they had nothing to do in the house, Lingchu went to bed after eating. After waking up, he continued to eat. After eating, he lay in the yard to bask in the sun.

 Her body still needs to be replenished with more yang energy.

 After leaving the house the next day, Ling Chu went to the medical clinic to prepare some health-preserving medicine.

After coming out of the hospital, Ling Chu looked at the few hundred taels of silver notes left in his hand and sighed.

Out of the 3,000 taels of gratitude given by Prince Jing's Mansion and the silver rewarded by the system, she prepared a month's supply of health-preserving medicines, and only had more than 300 taels left.

This money is really worthless.

It seems that if she wants to continue to live well, she must not only work hard to accumulate merit, but also make more money.

 After returning home, Ling Chu drank some medicine and was about to take a rest when Xia Zhi ran back in a panic.

 “Girl, it's bad, Liu Xiangju is missing.”

Lingchu frowned and saw Xia Zhi holding a chair and breathing heavily. He must have run back without stopping.

"Drink some water first and take a rest." Ling Chu did not ask in a hurry, but poured a glass of water for her.

Xia Zhi was running and his mouth was dry. He didn't hesitate when he heard the words. He reached out to take it and drank it in a few sips.

Putting down the tea cup, Xia Zhi still looked anxious, "Girl, Liu Xiangju is gone, what should I do?"

“Tell me what's going on. Please tell me slowly.”

Xia Zhi's expression was anxious and uneasy, "Originally, Xiangju and I were burning paper in the mourning hall, but she found that the paper at home was running out, so she planned to go to the street to buy some incense paper and bring back money.

 But shortly after she walked out of the door, I seemed to hear her scream.

 I felt something was wrong at the time, but when I went out, I didn't see her.

I asked around, and no one saw Liu Xiangju going out, but someone said that they seemed to see a carriage passing by, but they didn't see clearly who was sitting in the carriage. "

Taking a breath, Xia Zhi continued, "I was worried that something might happen to Xiangju, so I asked about it at the nearby incense and candle shop, but the shopkeepers all said they had never seen her."

“Xiangju is gone, have you told her father?”

Xia Zhi shook his head, "No, Xiangju's father was not at home. When something happened to Xiangju's mother, the neighbors didn't know. It was only after we invited people to help build the mourning hall that everyone knew that Xiangju's mother was dead.

 According to the aunts who came to help, Xiangju's father had not been seen for several days. "

Seeing that nothing could happen after further questioning, Ling Chu had no choice but to go to the Liu family to see for himself.

When I arrived at Liu's house, I didn't see Liu Dongluo, only two aunts who were close friends of Ge's family during his lifetime. They couldn't bear to see Liu Xiangju taking care of Ge's funeral alone, so she came over to help.

Ling Chu asked around, but no one saw Liu Xiangju.

It was the person who saw the carriage passing by. Seeing that Ling Chu was asking carefully, he hesitated before telling her that the carriage passing near Liu's house seemed to be Hu Batian's carriage.

Lingchu: If we don't reward you with tickets, we will drink the northwest wind.
