Chapter 389: Master Yun is back]
An hour later, Mr. He left, and Chen Meixin came out of the house with a somewhat disheveled look.
Yang Cuicui immediately went over to her, fetched her a basin of water, and said with a smile, "Mei Xin, you've worked hard. Come and wash your face. This kind of thing, once you get used to it... it's just a simple matter. When we make more money, I'll buy you two maids to help you dress up. Then we won't have to go to the mountains to pick those wild vegetables and mushrooms anymore."
Chen Mei washed her hands and face with a chilling heart, and said coldly: "Mother, where is the money that Mr. He gave you just now?"
Yang Cuicui was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on a smile and said, "You are young, it doesn't matter if I keep the silver. Later..."
Chen Meixin turned around and looked at her coldly, saying, "I earned the money with my own body, why should I keep it for you? If you want me to keep it for you, then I'll have to serve those stinky men myself next time..."
Seeing Chen Meixin's anger, Yang Cuicui could only smile and say, "Look at you, child, why are you so angry? I'm your biological mother, don't you still trust me? Well, here! Two taels of silver, weigh it, not a penny less, and I'll give it to you and let you keep it for yourself, isn't that enough?"
Chen Meixin glanced at her and then took away the two taels of silver coins.
Yang Cuicui sneered silently at her back.
It’s true that girls are no longer under their mothers’ control when they grow up.
Are you starting to be on guard against her now?
Fortunately, she had foresight.
Mr. He actually promised to give her five taels of silver. Now, the remaining three taels of silver are hidden in her arms!
After the mother and daughter rested for a while, they returned to the gathering place agreed upon by the villagers and took the ox cart back.
After leaving the town and walking a short distance, they saw a carriage coming towards them from afar and soon caught up with it.
When the people in the car saw him, they all greeted him, "It's Steward Yun. Your young master has returned to the old house in Daming Mansion to take care of things. Has he finished everything?"
It was Yuan Xu who was sitting in the carriage. He glanced at Yang Cuicui and Shen Meixin, then smiled and replied, "It's almost done. Are you all coming to town for the market? I'm really sorry, as everyone knows my master is in poor health and can't show up to greet everyone. I hope you can forgive me."
Everyone in the carriage said, "We're all awake. It's windy on this road, so there's no need to be so polite, Mr. Yun."
Yuan Xu exchanged a few more pleasantries before driving the carriage and leaving first.
After the carriage drove away, everyone started talking.
"Young Master Yun has been back in Daming Prefecture for almost two months now, right? I heard that his distant uncles and elders are planning to marry him off. I wonder if he's already married before returning."
"It doesn't look like that. If he was really married, why would he come back alone? He should have brought his bride with him."
"That's true. Alas, considering Mr. Yun's appearance, character, and family background, if he weren't suffering from tuberculosis, I'm afraid his house would have been demolished by matchmakers long ago. Why is he still unmarried?"
"If you ask me, maybe Mr. Yun is still thinking about Miss Shen, so he didn't get married?"
Everyone was gossiping, while Chen Meixin was looking at the shadow of the carriage from afar, with a determined look in her eyes.
Is Mr. Yun really that good? Why are they praising him like this?
She wants to see it for herself!
However, this is not important. What is important is that she must defeat Chen Fenghe and get this Young Master Yun!
