The old lady looked at Fu Hengyue who was standing beside her, walked forward with a smile on her face, and stuffed all the banknotes in her hand into Nanny Zhou's hand.
"Madame Zhou, what a child says is unreasonable. It was my child who offended you a few days ago without knowing the truth. Today I brought him to your house to apologize to you. Please don't bother with a child."
Madam Zhou glanced at Fu Hengyue and said, "I dare not offend the young lady of the general's mansion easily. After all, there is a huge difference in status. You don't need to persuade me anymore. Just take her back. I will pretend that I never taught her anything."
"How can this be possible!"
The old lady's voice was anxious, and her tone was full of self-blame.
"It was all my fault before. I could never bear to be cruel to her. I thought everything would be fine when she grew up. Now seeing her like this, I, as a mother, feel very distressed."
"I came here today to ask Madam Zhou to come back with me and help me discipline my child. It can be considered a good deed."
Fu Hengyue had been standing beside the old lady. Although he came to apologize, he didn't say a word.
The old lady looked at her expression and reached out to push Fu Hengyue.
"Didn't you say before you came that you had a lot to say to Madam Zhou? Now that you are in front of Madam Zhou, you should speak up!"
Fu Hengyue raised his head, looked at the old lady, and then spoke timidly.
"Before at home, I was judging others by my own standards. I was too willful and unwilling to listen to the teacher's teachings. Please don't hold it against me, teacher."
"I originally didn't bother to argue with you about these things."
Nanny Zhou sighed, looked at Fu Hengyue's figure today, and then spoke.
"Your child looks a little too immature from the way she dresses. Look at the people of her age, the noble ladies. Which one of them is not well-behaved?"
The old lady quickly understood, "Thank you for your advice, Madam Zhou. I will make sure to arrange everything properly when I return. Madam Zhou... please go back and teach her for my sake."
Nanny Zhou looked at the old lady's passionate gaze, then nodded awkwardly.
"But please listen to me this time, Miss Third. If Miss Third continues to argue with me like before, I'm afraid I won't lend a helping hand anymore."
“Yes, yes, yes!”
The old lady pushed Fu Hengyue's arm again, "Why don't you pay your respects to the master?"
"Meet the Master."
"Okay, old lady, take the child and leave first. I will enter the general's mansion tomorrow."
"good!"
As soon as the old lady and others left, after Nanny Zhou closed the door, her eyes fell on Shen Yuerong and Qinghua who were hiding at the end of the corridor.
"lady."
With a smile on her face, Shen Yuerong put the winnings she had promised to Nanny Zhou into her hands.
"I know Madam is not short of money, but this is my intention. I promised Madam, so I will not give less."
"The old lady has already given me a lot. I am alone in Kyoto and cannot spend all this."
"Madame Zhou really can't spend it all by herself, but what if we include her sick son in the countryside?"
Nanny Zhou widened her eyes in astonishment and looked at the woman in front of her.
Few people in this world knew that she had a son, let alone knew where the child was.
"I have no ill intentions, Madam Zhou. As long as you follow my instructions, I will not easily take money or people. If Madam Zhou is willing, I can help you check your child's illness. After all, I am also the descendant of a miracle doctor."
When Nanny Zhou heard this, her usually calm eyes were filled with a hint of sadness, and she knelt on the ground in excitement.
"Madam, I only have this one son in my life. Please have mercy on me and don't harm my son. He has suffered from many illnesses since he was young. He suddenly fainted a few days before he became an adult, and when he woke up again, he was a useless person who couldn't move."
"I have used all the money I earned in Beijing to hire a doctor for him over the years, but there has been no progress. Even the doctor said... maybe he only has a few more years to live."
As a mother, she naturally hopes that everything is fine with her son, but... there are always hardships destined by God.
"I don't ask for much, so you don't have to worry too much. Anyway, if someone from the General's Mansion comes to ask you for information, just agree to it. After that, I will personally treat your son."
"real?"
Shen Yuerong nodded.
Nanny Zhou knelt on the ground again, thanking Shen Yuerong for her kindness.
After finishing the work, Shen Yuerong ordered Qinghua to send her back to the general's mansion, but she didn't expect to see a familiar face when she opened the door of Nanny Zhou's courtyard.
Today, Chi Mu was wearing a long black robe, a black gold belt around his waist, and an ordinary white jade pendant. It was a very simple outfit.
It looks like he is going out on a secret visit.
The people present naturally recognized Chi Mu's identity. Chi Mu did not hide it. He raised the corner of his mouth and said directly, "Miss Shen, please get into the sedan chair."
Shen Yuerong was a little surprised. After all, in her impression, there was not much friendship between them.
"Miss."
Qinghua just felt that Chi Mu's appearance was a bit strange and didn't want to let his young lady go.
"No problem."
He had never had any ill will in the several encounters. Shen Yuerong got into the carriage with the help of one of his men and looked him over.
"Your Highness, you have come here today specifically. It should not be just a simple stroll, right?"
"You are always smart and know what I want to do. However, I heard that you want a general to fill the vacant fifth-rank position?"
"Where did you hear that? I've lived in Kyoto for so long, and although I know the rules of Kyoto, I don't dare to buy these official positions with money."
"You didn't help him?"
Shen Yuerong nodded sincerely, "I didn't help him. Besides, he won the battle and returned to the capital. Even if it was late, His Majesty would always give him a title, so naturally there would be no need for me to do anything in secret."
He was somewhat confused. After all, he had received the news secretly, but Shen Yuerong had spent a large sum of money and entrusted the Madam Zhou in front of her to help her negotiate, and only then had she managed to get the position of a fifth-rank official.
"So do you want him to take the position of the fifth-rank official?"
"Of course I do."
Shen Yuerong looked at the prince with an earnest gaze.
"After all, he is my husband. If he can get a position in the court, he can stay in the capital, and he and I won't have to suffer from the pain of missing each other. If Your Majesty is willing to help, I will naturally be very grateful. I just don't know if Your Majesty can..."
"Go down."
The man suddenly said this in a very cold tone, then turned his head away from looking at him, and the temperature around him also became a little colder.
Shen Yuerong was a little surprised. How could this person change his expression faster than turning the pages of a book?
She didn't say anything!
