Chapter 55: This trick works well, forcing her to come

The Duke's wife stamped her feet in anxiety and ended up stepping into a pile of manure. She looked down and felt nauseous. She gritted her teeth and looked up at Chu Jiuning's clean back. She was so angry that she was going crazy. She slammed the prison bars desperately and screamed hysterically.

"Are you deaf? If you knew the truth, you would definitely regret doing this to us, Chu Jiuning. If you miss this opportunity, I will never forgive you even if you kneel in front of me next time."

All kinds of feces seeped into her clothes, and smelly water flowed down her skin, making her vomit every time she could not say a word. She felt so uncomfortable that she did not want to wait a moment. She had to leave here immediately and take a shower and change clothes.

Right now, right now, right now.

But that bitch Chu Jiuning played tricks on her and disobeyed her mother-in-law.

Ahhhhh.

"Chu Jiuning, Chu Jiuning, whatever you ask for in exchange for letting me take a bath, I will agree to it."

But.

No matter how the Duke's wife shouted, Chu Jiuning ignored her. For a moment, the entire prison was filled with the Duke's wife's excited screams.

When they reached the exit, Chu Jiuning bowed to the jailer and handed them a stack of banknotes.

"Song Jinhuai is right. They will leave here tomorrow at the latest. People like him who are narrow-minded will definitely take revenge on you. It's better for you to take this money and leave the capital, or go to work in my Chu's shop."

The jailer's eyes flashed with surprise.

After receiving the thick stack of banknotes and looking at the face value of one thousand taels, several people were stunned at first, and then they all knelt in front of Chu Jiuning, their eyes red with emotion.

Chu Jiuning was the first person to consider them personally and the first person to help them leave.

Have money.

Who would be willing to stay in this dark and damp place? Their legs have been hurting for years. Wouldn’t it be better to leave the capital, find a beautiful place, and become a rich man?

"Miss Chu, can we really work in your shop?"

There are also one or two who don’t want to leave the capital. After all, their roots are here and their parents are old.

"Yes, but you must abide by my rules and not violate them. You must also do your best. I will not treat unfairly anyone who has worked for me."

Those who wanted to stay felt relieved after hearing her words.

More than a dozen people came out and respectfully saw Chu Jiuning off.

As soon as she left.

The jailer immediately divided the money equally, and then divided the people into three groups, trying to get them all out before dawn.

Chu Jiuning rode slowly in the carriage. When she passed by a teahouse, she stopped to listen for a while. The storytellers received rewards and praised Old Master Chu and her to the skies.

When I returned to the gate of the mansion.

Old Master Chu was directing his servants to hang a plaque. When he saw her come back, he smiled widely, but he covered his nose as soon as she got close.

"My dear grandson, what happened to you? You're such a grown-up, why are you still covered in shit?"

Chu Jiuning raised her arm and sniffed it, then said hurriedly.

"Grandpa, I'm going to go in and wash up. We'll talk later."

"Go ahead."

As the old man spoke, he spoke to Amber.

"Take out our new bath cream and let the young lady try it. She must be able to wash herself nicely."

"I understand, old man."

Amber ran in with a smile, while Qingsong stood at the door guarding the old man.

Only after she nestled into the warm water did Chu Jiuning feel truly comfortable, pointing at her contaminated clothes.

"Burn it. Let them take a bath and change their clothes quickly. They don't need any clothes anymore."

The wind outside the window blew violently, and the branches cast mottled shadows on the window frames, swaying like giant beasts. Chu Jiuning let them wash her and spoke to Nanny Hong who was preparing clothes.

"Autumn is only a month away. Have you prepared your winter clothes?"

The Chu family had so many shops and so many people that they had to prepare everything together, so Chu Jiuning simply opened a garment workshop specifically to serve the Chu family and shop workers. If he had spare time, he would also buy some cheap coarse cloth to make various clothes and supplies, and then store them for use in helping the people in times of disaster.

"The only thing missing is a part of our Chu family."

The things from each branch of the Chu family are all the best, especially those from Chu Jiuning, which are precious and exquisite, so they take a lot of time.

Chu Jiuning nodded.

"After dinner, go to bed early. We must go to the palace tomorrow."

Just saying.

Linglong was talking at the door.

"Miss, the Duke has returned and is looking for you."

"not see."

Chu Jiuning sneered. He was looking for trouble with her as soon as he came back. She was not that stupid. There were guards from the Prince's Mansion here. Even if he broke in, he might not be able to get in.

After changing into luxurious clothes again, Chu Jiuning suddenly frowned.

"What's wrong, miss? What went wrong?"

Linglong hurried forward to check her clothes. Chu Jiuning shook her head, a little unhappy.

"Although we are rich, we are still ordinary people. We can't use many expensive fabrics and headwear. It's really annoying."

After hearing that, Linglong finally remembered.

"The Emperor gave me a lot of gifts last time, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also sent some. I will go get the fabric and headdress."

When dressing up.

Chu Jiuning added a slightly crisp filigree phoenix hairpin, and there was a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.

"Young lady, you are so beautiful! I have never seen anyone more beautiful than you."

Chu Jiuning laughed when she heard this.

"While you are still young and wealthy, you should dress yourself up beautifully, so as not to let yourself down."

Just saying.

Nanny Hong walked in with a sullen face, carrying bird's nest soup, and said with a frown as she arranged the things.

"This Miss An is so shameless. She even knelt in front of our gate with her son, saying she wanted to see you."

Chu Jiuning blinked.

The Duke has some shame, so he changed to An Yinyin again?

"Madam Hong, I remember the plaque that Grandpa hung at the gate. It wasn't the Chu Mansion, right?"

Nanny Hong nodded.

"Yes, it's the Su Mansion that's hanging."

Chu Jiuning's biological mother's surname was Su, so it was registered in her name. Chu Jiuning leaned back.

"Anyway, no one knows I live here, nor does anyone know this is the Chu Residence. If she wants to kneel, then let her kneel."

When Matron Hong heard this, she immediately smiled and brought the bird's nest to her and spoke softly.

"Come and eat something. You've been too tired recently. You need to replenish your energy."

"You guys eat too."

Chu Jiuning always told them that when cooking, cook for everyone and eat together.

then.

Everyone started eating, taking turns eating.

…

At the door.

An Yinyin was delighted when she saw someone coming to open the door.

I knew this trick would work, and it forced Chu Jiuning to not dare to ignore it.

But.

The servant inside just stuck his head out, glanced at them, snorted, then retracted his head and deliberately slammed the door shut!
