Chapter 22: After Hardship, There Are Difficulties
Perhaps because the blow was too great, Mu Xiao'er didn't say a word since she came down from the third floor.
Mrs. Mu felt strange, and after being whispered a few words by Jing Yuan, her eyes when she looked at Jiang Yanling could almost erupt fire. The latter is not aware of this.
After lunch, the group returned to Mufu.
It wasn't until he entered the East Chamber, where everything was placed properly, that Jiang Yanling carefully took out the silver ticket. Dou Ding's early let Aunt Rong take it for him, and at this moment he was swinging a pair of small short legs playing with nine consecutive rings.
She had seen a photograph of a Qing Dynasty silver ticket, but the quality of the ticket was obviously much better than the one in the photo: the beige jade plate paper was depicted with gold edges, and the hand-painted frame of the Fu pattern was covered with many red or black stamps, and almost all the characters on it were printed.
"Fuxiang No. 1 Money Village...... Daqi Yufeng thirteenth year......" She tried to distinguish what was written on the ticket, and almost didn't bare out her eyes when she saw the five big characters in the center, "One hundred taels of silver?? ”
Little Douding's surprise is often wrong: "Are you still literate?" ”
She looked at him with wide eyes: "One hundred taels??" ”
He blinked: "It's a hundred, are you literate?" ”
Dou Ding had no concept of money, so she looked at Rong Gu, and when she saw the latter looking back with a solemn face, she knew that this was indeed a large amount of money as she thought.
Carefully calculated, ten taels of silver is ten thousand copper coins, and the nine rings bought on the street last night only cost three wen one, so this one hundred taels of silver...... Wouldn't it be possible to buy more than 30,000 Nine Rings? The Xie family had a casual meal, and they ate a hundred taels of silver??
I thought it would be ten taels or twenty taels, but I didn't expect there to be so many. This one hundred taels of silver, she took the little example of a miscellaneous maid, and she didn't know how many lifetimes she would have to work without eating or drinking.
It's not just pie in the sky. It's still a big hot potato.
Sure enough, Rong Gu said in a sullen voice: "Money is already a disaster, not to mention that the poor get rich." ”
Jiang Yanling held the silver ticket and said dumbly: "I didn't expect there to be so many ...... What now? ”
"What else can I do? Put it away well, don't let others look at it, or you will suffer. Aunt Rong was not angry, "I don't care if something happens to you, but if it affects the mood of the little master, I will not make you feel better." ”
That's right. Her identity is like this now, if people know about it, she will get a windfall now, and her personal safety will have an accident in the next second.
She walked around the east compartment a few times, feeling that it was not safe anywhere, and finally carefully stuffed the silver ticket under her bed.

After dinner, when Jiang Yanling and Xiaodouding were having fun in the main hall, the voice of the janitor came from outside the east chamber: "I've seen the girl who is sparse in the night." ”
"The little master is here?"
"Back to the girl, the young master is playing, I don't see anyone for the time being, please ...... the girl later"
"I'm here to deliver my wife's life."
Jiang Yanling and Douding looked at each other.
The maid paused, and then squeaked and pushed the door open: "Girl, please." ”
Jiang Yanling saw that someone was coming, so he hurriedly picked up the chair and gave a small salute to Shu Ye: "I've seen Shu Ye girl." ”
She is still grateful from the bottom of her heart to this big girl who saved her life.
Shuye saluted Dou Ding: "Please be nice to the little master." ”
"Get up, get up." Xiao Douding didn't look at her, and was still struggling to solve the last nine rings in his hands. The metal collided, and there was a "clattering" sound, "What do you want to say to me?" ”
"It's a life to pass on to Miss Ling'er." As she spoke, a pair of hanging eyes looked in the direction of Jiang Yanling.
"Me?" Jiang Yanling was a little surprised, after all, she and Mrs. Mu had met when they went to Fanlou today, what orders could they give her.
"Yes. Madame called you to come and serve tonight. ”
This was not expected by her. Jiang Yanling sneered: "But I didn't go to serve people, in case I ......"
She didn't even know the rules for making the bed, and she could only make Xiao Douding happy in the East Chamber-this lady has been living comfortably for too long, and she wants to find some excitement or what?
Shu Ye didn't listen to her excuse, but said: "Madame specially pointed out you, you should be honored." ”
Jiang Yanling had nothing to say.
As soon as Dou Ding heard this, he threw the nine chains, turned his head to look at it, and said hurriedly: "Mother, this is going to point Xiao Ling'er to her?" ”
Shu Ye looked over with a smile: "Madam knows that the little young master is reluctant to Ling Er, so she called over tonight, just to see how she is serving, so she can rest assured that she will continue to stay with the young master, not to refer to her." The young master was relieved. ”
"Oh, that'll do." Dou Ding breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Jiang Yanling with a heavy heart, "You have to behave well, it depends on you whether you and I can play together in the future." ”
He scratched his head and said, "But my mother has always been gentle and kind-hearted, and I won't embarrass you if I want to...... You just relax. ”
Jiang Yanling sighed: "It's the same." ”
"Eh, yes, yes, I'll tell you a few things you'd better be careful, when you enter the door of your mother's room, you have to step your right foot first, and ...... when you light the candle."
Shu Ye was still smiling, his dark eyes glanced slightly, and he looked at Jiang Yanling, who was agreeing to Xiao Douding on the side.
This time, it seems that Aunt Hua is right.
If you don't die in a great calamity, there will be a greater calamity.
