Chapter 79 A Truly Kind Person
"Young master, I was just about to go, why did you come out?"
The door was suddenly pulled open, and Yantai was stunned for a moment.
"I'll go by myself." Liu Wenshu changed his clothes after taking a bath, his hair still wet.
It's still hot now, it'll dry in a bit.
Yantai whispered a reminder, "Young master, one hundred taels of silver is no small sum. You might not have that much savings left."
Lady Ye saved his young master's life, so one hundred taels is indeed the right thing to do.
Liu Wenshu thought about his private savings and walked towards the backyard.
"I'm going to see my grandmother."
backyard.
Xing'er knelt down and tearfully recounted what had just happened.
She couldn't understand what was wrong with her, why the young master disliked her so much.
Tao'er was kneeling beside her, but the young master wouldn't let her get close.
Sitting upright on the couch, Old Madam Liu didn't react much after hearing this. "Fine, since I don't like you, you two shouldn't come near me anymore. Go back to my courtyard and serve me. When a steward takes a liking to you, I'll let you go out and get married."
Tao'er and Xing'er were unwilling to accept this; marrying a steward was nothing compared to serving the young master.
But what could they do if the young master refused to accept them? In the end, they went down with tears in their eyes.
Looking at the sun outside, Old Madam Liu sighed, "Is there something wrong with this child? Should we send Yantai over to ask?"
He's in the prime of his life, yet he won't let women near him. These Peach and Apricot aren't ugly, could it be...?
Her attendant, Granny Liu, hurriedly spoke up, "Madam, the young master has just passed the exam. The fact that he doesn't allow women to serve him shows that he is insightful and will surely achieve great things in the future. Why do you need to worry so much?"
Don't let the old lady keep guessing; she'll probably be even more worried.
She looked at the young master as if he were perfectly normal.
Madam Liu smiled and said, "I originally thought that he didn't want women near him before because he was studying, but now it seems that he really looks down on the two maids!"
"Good, this child is more promising than his father. His father didn't pass the imperial examination when he was this age."
Granny Liu reminded her, "Madam..."
The old lady waved her hand, "I know, what's meant to happen will happen sooner or later."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Liu Wenshu entered from outside.
"grandmother!"
When Madam Liu saw him, she smiled kindly and said, "Why did you come at this time? You've been studying hard lately, shouldn't you be resting in your room? Look, your hair isn't even dry. The servants are so careless."
When Madam Liu was choosing him, how could he refuse to have his maidservants serve him?
Unfortunately, Liu Wenshu didn't understand. He chuckled and came closer, "Grandmother, I've got my eye on a fan. It costs a hundred taels of silver. I don't have enough money. So tell me if you love your grandson or not."
"What kind of fan is so expensive?"
As she asked this question, Madam Liu turned to her maid, Liu Mama, and instructed, "Liu Mama, go and get the young master one hundred taels of silver."
"Grandmother, I knew you were the best to me."
Liu Wenshu took the silver and was about to leave when he was stopped.
"By the way, that noodle dish you mentioned before, I asked Manager Liu to buy it, but he couldn't. Is it really that delicious?"
As people get older, they often lose their sense of taste, and this has brought up the topic again for Mrs. Liu.
Just now, a thought popped into my head: Could it be that her grandson has taken a fancy to this woman who sells drugs?
Liu Wenshu put the silver away. "Then I probably won't sell it anymore. The woman who sells the powder has three daughters to take care of, so she's probably too busy."
"Grandma, I've brought you some fresh food."
Seeing that Liu Wenshu had left, Granny Liu said in a low voice, "Madam, please don't overthink it. The young master is still young; perhaps he just hasn't figured things out yet."
There's no way the young master would be interested in a woman with three children, right?
Madam Liu glanced awkwardly at Granny Liu, who had been with her for most of her life.
Was her meaning that obvious?
Outside the Liu family's gate, after the money was scattered, the people who had been gathered there dispersed in a panic.
"Mother, I told you we made the right decision coming here! Do you know how much money I picked up? Twenty coins!"
Sanya was so happy she almost jumped for joy.
The Liu family is really rich. They just threw away a whole basket of money like that. She wished she had eight hands.
Even so, they were afraid of being stepped on, so they picked them up from the edge.
"And Sanya, Sanya was the luckiest. She picked up half a tael of silver. It's a pity that eldest sister didn't come, otherwise we could have picked up even more."
Sanya handed the half-cent coin in her hand to Ye Wan, saying, "Mother, here you go."
Just as Ye Wan was about to praise her, she was surrounded by two men.
"You two brats, so that's why you picked up my money! Hand it back right now!"
Er Ya immediately blocked San Ya's way, "What do you mean 'your money'? This was scattered outside by the Liu family's steward. Whoever finds it can keep it!"
The two men exchanged a glance. "That silver is clearly mine! Hand it over now, or we'll beat you up!"
Ye Wan's face darkened as she spoke, "This is right in front of the Liu family's gate. You're being far too arrogant. If you alert the people inside, you'll be in deep trouble!"
The money the two children painstakingly found has now been targeted by someone. It's infuriating.
"Do you think the important person inside would care about such a small matter? Young lady, I advise you to take out the silver quickly. You just picked up quite a bit of money from us brothers!"
The two men had made up their minds. What could happen if they robbed a woman with two young girls?
Judging by their clothes, they must have quite a bit of money, right?
"If you know what's good for you, hand over the money right now, or else..."
"Men, attack!"
Before the two could finish speaking, Liu Wenshu came out with Yantai and two guards, and dragged the two men to a secluded place to beat them up.
"Madam Ye, are you alright?"
"It's nothing, thank you very much, Young Master Liu."
Ye Wan was also surprised that Liu Wenshu came out of the gate looking so fresh and beautiful.
Liu Wenshu looked Ye Wan up and down, and only when he saw that she was alright did he feel relieved.
Seeing the three of them come to the Liu family's door to collect the lucky money, he felt very bad. "It's my fault. I should have asked Yantai to send the money to you immediately."
If life weren't so hard, why would Madam Ye bring her child out in public to collect money?
While no one was looking, he handed over one hundred taels of silver to Ye Wan on the spot.
Ye Wan's eyes lit up instantly, and she beamed with joy, "Young Master Liu, you are truly a great philanthropist!"
Looking at her, Liu Wenshu couldn't help but laugh. "This isn't the place to talk. Let's go to Xilai Restaurant. As an apology, I'll treat you to dinner."
"this……"
Just as Ye Wan was about to refuse, Er Ya happily spoke up, "Okay, okay, Mother, I've never been to a grand restaurant before, let's go, Young Master Liu is a good person."
Liu Wenshu also looked at Ye Wan, "Madam Ye, you are my savior. Without you, I would not have passed the imperial examination. Please do me the honor."
