Mrs. Cai knew that her heart was moved, and she couldn't help but feel nervous, but with a cautious look on her face, she stretched out two fingers and said, "Two hundred taels, maybe more."
The mother-in-law looked at Mrs. Cai up and down, with a complicated look on her face, "It seems that your former master treated you well! You can actually save two hundred taels of net worth by yourself!"
It was hard for Mrs. Cai to answer this, so she had to laugh. The mother-in-law helped her throw out the two hundred taels of silver. She alone could get the two hundred taels of silver as her hard work. This is not a small amount for any servant.
.
So she firmly believed that her mother-in-law would not refuse.
Sure enough, the woman was just upset for a while and then said in a cold voice: "Don't brag. If you can really get it, I will report it for you. At least we have friendship, and I sincerely want to help you."
Mrs. Cai nodded repeatedly, "Sister, if you are willing to pull me like this, will I still cheat you? But as I said just now, there is a problem now. My... money is all outside and I can't get it out, isn't it?
It’s all in vain?”
The woman then sneered and said, "I'm talking about you! You are a decent person! You are timid in speaking and doing things. Whose house did you work for in the past? Why don't you understand such a few rules?"
"
After he finished speaking, he spoke emphatically, as if he was teaching the younger generation, "The dragon has the way of the dragon, and the rat has the way of the rat. Aren't we slaves human beings?"
As a human being, he naturally has his own connections and connections. With so many things going on in this house, how can the masters take care of them?
As long as we work together and deal with everything in the house, nothing will happen to us.
For example, when it comes to entering and leaving the house, although there are regulations from above, the rules are dead and people are alive.
Now that you have something important to go out, you can just go out after saying hello without disturbing the butler. Don’t you know this truth?"
Actually taking this opportunity to find a way to go out, Mrs. Cai was extremely excited for a moment.
But he had to endure it and nodded repeatedly: "Sister, what you said is reasonable, but before that, I always thought in my mind that this is the palace after all. It is no better than other places, and it may be the same as the palace, so I didn't go there.
The boss has thought about that."
"Ouch! You're being circumspect. No matter it's the palace or the palace, the people working underneath are all human beings. These people always have emotions and desires, and they always have their own ideas! How can you still call someone who is strict and strict?"
The mother-in-law had a sense of superiority that she was more knowledgeable than Mrs. Cai, and she always spoke in the same way. Mrs. Cai naturally just nodded in agreement without any denial.
In my heart, I looked down on Xie Songhua even more.
I don't know if the same is true at the residence of Mr. Xie Ge in the capital. The supervision of the people there is so lax.
How dare a humble young woman like the one in the house treat the rules as if they were nothing...
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think that her husband had accidentally mentioned before that there were many informants from different houses in Datong City.
The palace is so poorly guarded...
The more she thought about it, the more she thought about it. She couldn't help but think a little too far, and her body gradually became cold.
The mother-in-law on the side called her several times before she came back to her senses and said a little embarrassedly: "Ah? What did sister just say?"
"What are you thinking! So absorbed? I'm asking you when you can get the money when you go out? I'll contact you for the convenience of the gatekeeper."
As he spoke, a trace of uneasiness flashed across his face, but he quickly hid it, "But in the final analysis, this matter is against the rules of the government. Those people are taking risks, and there is no reason to make others fearful in vain. It is inevitable.
I want to give you two dollars to treat everyone to tea and drinks, do you agree to this?"
As if he was afraid that she would be unhappy, he said sternly: "This has always been the rule. I tell you, you must not be reluctant to part with these two dollars. This time you will do a better job and everyone will recognize you.
It will be easier to do things in the future.”
Mrs. Cai curled her lips in her heart, but she agreed with these words. She nodded and said with a smile: "As a sister, I don't know anything. Just help me contact you. I will prepare to call you tomorrow afternoon."
When I leave the house, my sister will ask if it is convenient for me. As for everyone's hard work, don't worry, it will not be a penny less, and it will not make people think that you are ignorant, sister, for introducing such an unreliable person.
past."
This made sense, and the mother-in-law became happy.
During the discussion, the two people had already arrived in front of the small courtyard, and the woman waved her hand and said: "You go and do your business. If you have any plans, you should figure them out first. I will run errands for you."
Mrs. Cai nodded with a smile and let out a long breath after returning to the house. It turned out that it was so easy to get out of here. If I had known better, I shouldn't have quarreled with that woman.
But maybe this is also a benefit.
She has been behaving well for so long, and now that country bumpkin from the Xie family trusts her so much that he thinks she can't do anything.
Otherwise, if she had actively gotten close to these servants in the past, Xie Songhua would have become suspicious.
Mrs. Cai opened her tightly clenched palms and found that her palms were sweaty and she was so nervous.
She couldn't help pacing back and forth in the room.
If she can really leave the house smoothly tomorrow, should she just blend in with the crowd and leave this ghost place?
Her heart was beating violently, but it didn't take long for Mrs. Cai to calm down.
No!
Datong is such a big city, and the surrounding city gates are now under security. If you sneak out on your own, you will most likely be discovered.
And now that she was really penniless, it would be a dead end for her to go out, and it would be impossible for her to go all the way to the capital.
Then the only choice is to go to Cai Mansion.
After going to Cai Mansion, she had to face her husband. Her husband's stupid head might send her back that night. Wouldn't it be even worse if Xie Songhua knew about it.
Then we can only let the daughter-in-law at home quietly not tell her husband.
But this is difficult. Although Xie Songhua doesn't care about her very much now, it doesn't mean that she has completely forgotten about herself. If the mother-in-law finds out that she has not come back, she will have to report it.
Others don't know her, but her husband knows her best, and it won't be long before he knows she is hiding in the house.
The house elsewhere was sold by her at the very beginning.
Inns and so on are not safe.
After thinking about it, Mrs. Cai realized that she could not leave this palace.
Even if you go out at this time, you still have to come back.
She sat silently at the table. After thinking for a long time, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll be right back!"
This Xie Songhua had harmed herself to this extent. She had to take revenge no matter what, otherwise her life would be ruined and her reputation would be ruined.
What's more, she didn't come to ruin Xie Songhua's reputation. Why did Xie Songhua himself have a bad reputation?
Isn’t this so-called way to make money the best opportunity?
Mrs. Cai made up her mind. Although she felt very unhappy, she did not hesitate anymore.
Sure enough, the next day, she saw Xie Songhua's carriage going out again, just like yesterday.
It seems that this woman's appetite is not small, and she doesn't know how much land she wants to buy. I'm afraid she has transferred a lot of money back from the capital.
The mother-in-law also found her at the same time and said, "Okay, okay, I have already explained it to you. At the beginning of noon, you go out through the corner door on the west side. Someone will hold the door open for you. But first, we have agreed that within two hours you can go out."
I have to come back, it’s been a long time, and I can’t hide it. If anyone asks, everyone will be in trouble!”
Mrs. Cai nodded slightly, with a fierce look in her eyes, but then she smiled and said: "Sister, don't worry, I will come back of course, and I even want to make some money in the house! What can I do with such an opportunity?
