"Come in with me." After Mu Siyu said that, she turned and walked towards the study.
Lu Zhiyun looked at Shang Zhi next to him.
Shang Zhi lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, Miss, Madam is reluctant to punish you."
In the study, Mu Siyu was about to drink water and found that the water was cold. Before she could speak, Lu Zhiyun picked up the teapot and said to Shang Zhi next to her: "Shang Zhi, hurry up and make a pot of hot tea."
Shangzhi took the order.
"Mom, don't be angry. Being angry can easily hurt your body." Lu Zhiyun squeezed Mu Siyu's shoulders, her voice was sweet and she looked well-behaved. "My daughter knows she was wrong. This time she was impulsive. I promise there will be no next time."
Mu Siyu: "..."
She said everything she wanted to say, so what else is there to say?
"You acted impulsively today, and we can't hide your whereabouts." Mu Siyu said, "This is not the most important. At worst, if we come back to visit relatives, it is not surprising to show up here. The biggest influence is yours.
Reputation. You have given yourself a reputation of being cruel and ruthless, and I don’t know how many people who hate you say bad things about you behind your back."
"Mom, you also said that those people hate me." Lu Zhiyun said, "In that case, does it matter what they say? How will what they say affect me?"
"Mom is not someone who cares about other people's opinions. I just don't want you to be wronged." Mu Siyu held her hand, "I have heard all the right and wrong, no matter how unpleasant other people say it, and I don't care at all. But.
My Yun'er is so good, if you hear other people say something bad about you, Mom will be sad."
"Don't worry, mother." Lu Zhiyun leaned on Mu Siyu's shoulder, "Those who really understand us will never care about that. Those unpleasant rumors will only drive away those who don't understand us."
"Did you really let people chop off those people's hands?"
"Just kill seven or eight people!"
"Even your mother has never done such a terrible thing, so you're not afraid?"
"Actually, it's quite scary." Lu Zhiyun lowered his voice and said, "But I told myself, these people deserve what they deserve. Mom, you don't know how many bad things I found out about those people, and they are not innocent even if they die. However, I
I've vented my anger on my sister's behalf, and leave the rest to the county magistrate. If he wants to get promoted and make a fortune, he should seize this opportunity."
Of course Magistrate Gu would seize this opportunity.
Meng Husheng and his minions were quickly convicted.
Meng Husheng's ill-gotten gains were confiscated, and according to his account books, all the money owed to silkworm farmers over the years was made up. As well as the young men who were robbed, each of them received a lot of money.
, and then left each other. The families of those innocent people killed by Meng Husheng and his minions also received considerable compensation.
Of course money can't make up for the death of a person, but it can make their family's life easier. This is already the best way to make up for it.
"Miss..." the servant walked in, "the eldest lady, the second lady, the second young master, the uncle..."
Several children who were eating fruit looked at the servant who came over.
"There are many people outside, and they want to come and thank the lady."
"Who?" Lu Zhiyun asked.
"Those silkworm farmers."
"It turns out it's them." Lu Zhiqing said, "Then let them come in!"
After ordering the servants, she said to Lu Zhiyun: "Sister, I have made many friends. Their family is a silkworm farmer. Although this incident happened because of them, they are the victims. Sister, please don't express your anger.
them."
Lu Zhiyun poked Lu Zhiqing's forehead angrily: "In your eyes, is your sister an indiscriminate person?"
"No, of course not." Lu Zhiqing stuck out her tongue, "My sister is the best. She knew I was at a disadvantage and she went out of her way to help me vent my anger. Now she has the reputation of a tigress."
"Lu Zhiqing, is your skin itchy?" Lu Zhiyun was angry, "Who am I doing this for? You little girl, you are just a white-eyed wolf."
The servant came in with the silkworm farmers.
They knelt down to Lu Zhiyun and others and kowtowed with great gratitude.
"If it weren't for Miss, we would never be able to get rid of Mr. Meng. Miss is kind to us, and we have nothing to repay. We can only work hard for Miss, and we just ask Miss to accept us."
"I don't need you to work as cows or horses." Lu Zhiyun gestured to the servants next to him and asked them to help the silkworm farmers up. "I heard that you are raising silkworms. How are your cocoons?"
"It's not that we don't know how to be humble. The silkworm cocoons in our village are absolutely unique. Otherwise, Mr. Meng wouldn't use all his means to force us to raise silkworms and make cocoons for him." The village chief said, "We are all rough people.
My only skill is the skill of raising silkworms. The young lady has been very kind to us, and we didn’t know how to repay her after much thought, so we gave her some cocoons and asked her not to dislike it."
"Take it and take a look."
The servant took the cocoon and brought it to Lu Zhiyun.
Lu Zhiyun looked at the silkworm cocoons in front of her with admiration in her eyes: "Yes, they are indeed well raised."
"Thank you for the compliment, Miss."
"You really want to repay me?"
"Of course it's true," the village chief said, "What the lady wants us to do, we have to define it."
"There is no need for anything else. You are quite good at raising silkworms. I will ask someone to send you a batch of special silkworms. Those silkworms are called ice silkworms. The silk they spin is also cold, so they are made of that kind of silk leather.
The cloth is also ice cloth, suitable for making summer clothes. However, this kind of ice silkworm is particularly difficult to raise. If you can get it out, you will be rewarded, and there will be generous rewards in the future."
"We are willing to do anything for Miss. We don't need rewards. We want to do something for Miss." The village chief said, "It's just that we have never raised such a rare treasure. If we raise it to death..."
"Just try your best. Even if you really fail, there is nothing you can do about it." Lu Zhiyun said, "As far as I know, not everyone can raise this kind of silkworm. So far, only people in good countries have raised it.
However, this skill is kept secret, so only those with particularly noble status can afford to wear this kind of clothes. If you complete this task, it will be a meritorious service to our country. When the time comes, I will ask the emperor to personally give a plaque to your village.
, then your village will not have to worry about glory and wealth."
"Thank you, miss."
After the silkworm farmers left, Shang Zhi said: "Miss, those ice silkworms are very precious. We spent a lot of money to buy these twenty pairs. If one of them dies, it will be a loss of one hundred taels of gold. Do you really want to leave it to them?"
"
"The silkworm cocoons they gave me are indeed good and of the highest quality. I think there is no one here who is more suitable than them." Lu Zhiyun said, "It doesn't matter if you die, don't put pressure on them."
