Shen Yang: Master is really emotional, but how should I explain it to the high priest?
Xing Xiyan: With my cousin-in-law, I finally don’t have to be timid in front of my cousin.
If Luo Jiuli knew what Xing Xiyan was thinking, he would probably laugh and tell him that I will disappoint you.
Cheating her cousin and her husband, she prefers her husband.
Because someone was causing trouble in the No. 1 Pot in the World, Luo Jiuli asked the housekeeper to come to Fuquyuan to look for her with a list of people from all over the house when he returned home that night.
"Second Miss, are you looking for me?"
The housekeeper is now extremely respectful to Luo Jiuli.
After all, his son took charge of the restaurant business at a young age. This was a rare opportunity, and this opportunity was given by the second lady.
He is naturally a person who repays kindness.
Luo Jiuli nodded.
"I came here to ask you, is there anyone in the palace's personnel list who was born as a guard and has a disability, but can move freely and has some kung fu?"
The housekeeper was stunned.
"You have a disability, but you can move freely and have some effort?"
"Yes, some have injured faces, some have broken fingers, and some have injured arms and legs, but they still have some strength."
"But these are all veterans placed by the Duke, but they are not in the mansion. Most of them are in Zhuangzi."
"Veteran? Retired from the battlefield?"
As a military doctor, Luo Jiuli's deep feelings and respect for soldiers have never changed.
The butler nodded.
"Yes, they are all veterans who were injured and semi-disabled on the battlefield and retired after being unable to go to the battlefield."
"Although the court provides pensions, that little money is not enough to support a large family."
"What's more, if you are injured and disabled, you can't do many jobs. Normal people can't find a place to work, so no one is willing to take them."
"The Duke is worried that they have no source of income and live too hard, so he often spends his own money to support them."
"But the Duke's family has a big business and a lot of favors. Sooner or later, the support will be in vain."
"Later, my wife thought of a way. If all the injured and disabled veterans don't dislike it, they can go to Zhuangzi or a nearby shop to help. They can make some money on time every month to supplement their family income."
When Luo Jiuli heard this, his nose felt sore and he felt unspeakable discomfort in his heart.
No wonder the Duke's Mansion is not as wealthy as other mansions, and no wonder my mother always wears light clothes.
It turned out that it was not the Duke's family who was poor, but her parents who had done the most admirable thing in the world.
At this moment, the images of her parents were tall and indestructible in Luo Jiuli's heart.
As for the imperial court's placement of these injured veterans, she didn't know much about it, so she thought she should ask Xiao Mingxuan another day to find out.
"Those veterans fought bloody battles with their fathers, escaped death, and finally ended the war and returned to their homeland. They deserve the best treatment."
"Since my father and mother have set an example, I, as a daughter, naturally cannot succumb to others. I plan to place some veterans in the restaurant. Those who wash vegetables, chop vegetables and meat in the back kitchen, and those who receive carriages and horses in the front hall.
From serving food to serving tea and pouring water, you can arrange the various types of work."
"It's been arranged. I'll let Chunrong take them for a while, and then I'll take Chunrong and a few girls back."
When the housekeeper heard this, he seemed to understand what was going on.
"Second Miss, is it because of what happened in the restaurant today?"
"Um."
Luo Jiuli nodded.
This world is deeply malicious towards women, especially young women.
She originally thought it would give Chun Rong a chance to practice, so that she could be independent in the future.
It also gives those maids who have children at home a chance. After they get married and no longer work in restaurants, they can also start a small business based on their skills.
But now it seems that the social atmosphere is like this.
Those arrogant men, even the beggars who were being taken advantage of, dared to attack Chun Rong in full view of the public.
There's nothing else they can't do.
Today, she is in the store, and Shen Yang and Mo Han are helping her. If one day, she is not in the store, and no one comes to help, what will happen to Chunrong.
In such a hierarchical society, the relationship between people is that the big one bullies the small, the strong bullies the weak, and the higher-ranking officials suppress others to death.
She can't change the rules of society, she can only change her own thoughts.
She didn't want to wait until something happened and reached an irreversible point before compromising.
In that case, she would harm the reputation and lives of Chun Rong and those maids.
"Second Miss, on behalf of those veterans, I would like to thank Second Miss."
The butler bowed solemnly.
"The Duke of Yiguo, from the master and the wife to the young master and the young lady, has done a lot of good deeds."
Luo Jiuli smiled faintly.
"Go ahead and handle this matter carefully."
"yes."
The butler withdrew.
Nan Xing and Nan Zhu stood aside and saw with their own eyes and heard with their own ears.
The look in his eyes looking at Luo Jiuli was a little more admiring.
In this world, there are thousands of good-looking women and thousands of noble women, but there are very few women who are truly wise and broad-minded.
But Luo Jiuli is one of these very few.
——
"Look, this is the woman that the king values. She has compassion for heaven and earth, a broad mind for her family, country and the world, and a proud character that is neither humble nor arrogant."
"How many women in the world can do this?"
In the Nine Princes' Mansion, Xiao Mingxuan stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back.
Behind him were Shen Yang who was kneeling on the ground, Qin Yin and Mo Han standing aside, and a dark figure who had just returned home to report and exited the study.
Shen Yang knelt on the ground, his face turning green and red.
"I hope that Miss Luo Er will be the mistress of the Ninth Prince's Mansion and the wife of the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion."
"It's just that the master's identity is to return to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty one day, kill Emperor Wu, avenge the late emperor, seize the throne, and unify the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
"Miss Luo Er will be the master's assistant, but she will not be the biggest assistant-"
"Shen Yang, shut up for me."
Beside, Qin Yin and Mo Han had cold sweat dripping from their foreheads.
With the master's love for Miss Luo Er.
Mr. Shen Yang asked this question very directly. If you are not careful, you will be killed on the spot.
Xiao Mingxuan had a cold face.
"Master, if you need to come and ask me about my affairs, get out."
"But Master."
Shen Yang's identity was different from that of Qin Yin and Mo Han. There were some things that Qin Yin and Mo Han didn't dare to say, but Shen Yang had to say them.
"Master, have you forgotten that the high priest once said that only the daughter of Ziweixing can assist the master, resolve the master's crisis, and assist the master in ascending to the throne of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty emperor?"
"Shen Yang."
There was a hint of murderous intent in Xiao Mingxuan's eyes.
If he and Shen Yang hadn't both been from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and if Shen Yang hadn't grown up with him in the Falling Star Valley, I'm afraid that Shen Yang would have been a skeleton at this moment.
