But at this moment, the old lady in the hall suddenly shouted:
"You old thief Mo!
I was soft-hearted and gave you some retirement money, but you spent it all on dealing with Miss Si!
Someone come! Hit me! "
Si Jinxing turned around and saw the old lady limping towards the stairs with the support of Mother Lu.
Because of her back pain and being kicked a few times by the people, she walked in a very funny way.
When the old lady reached the steps, she saw that all the servants in the yard were standing with their heads down, not moving at all.
Her face darkened, she looked at Si Junshan and said angrily:
"Now, I really have no say in this mansion!
In this case, I will return to Hengzhou!"
Si Junshan turned around and glanced at her, then replied coldly:
"Since mother wants to come back, then I will send someone to send her back to my second brother's house."
When the old lady heard this, she staggered and almost fell!
She was just angry and wanted to scare him, but she didn't expect that her son actually wanted to send her back!
She also has a son and a daughter, both in her hometown of Hengzhou. How can that place be compared with Jianzhou, the place under the feet of the emperor?
What's more, if she went back in such a dejected manner, the people from the second house in the old house would definitely laugh at her!
She doesn't want to go back!
"You! You unfilial son, you are unwilling to support your own mother!" The old lady pointed at Si Junshan's nose and cursed:
"If your father knew about this, he would definitely not forgive you!"
Si Junshan said expressionlessly:
“Didn’t Mother come up with this herself?
The son was just following his mother's wishes, so what was wrong with that?
We'll discuss mother's return to Hengzhou later. First, let me deal with this evil servant!"
Upon hearing this, the old lady's face changed and she winked at Mother Lin.
Mother Lin bravely walked up to Mrs. Mo and slapped her in the face, saying:
"You old woman, weren't you wronged by our young lady for a few days in the western suburbs?
In this world, how can a servant care so much about his master?
I never thought that you are such a vengeful person and would do such a vengeful thing!
"Okay, stop blaming this and that. Tell the truth about what you did and ask the General and the Second Miss for some forgiveness!"
Mrs. Mo covered her face and thought of the second young lady's perversion and cruelty in the villa!
How could a person like that let his family go easily?
She suddenly shuddered, kowtowed and admitted her mistake:
"Yes, yes, I was bewildered for a moment and did such a stupid thing!
Please forgive me, General, Madam, and Second Miss!"
Si Junshan looked at Granny Mo, frowning slightly, and asked, "Did you really do this alone?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Mother Lin and asked, "No one else is instructing you?"
Mrs. Mo paused for a moment, then lay on the ground and cried:
"There is no one else's instigation. It is just that this old slave, Zhuyou, has lost his mind and wants to cause trouble for the Second Young Lady.
I know I was wrong, please forgive me, General!"
Si Jinxing looked at Si Junshan and whispered:
"See? This is it: What you hear with your own ears and see with your own eyes is not necessarily true.
Ten years ago, it was like this! Today, it is still like this! "
Si Junshan was shocked. What did this mean?
She took the cakes that year, and she admitted that she asked the kitchen to make them, but it wasn't her at all...
Now, Mrs. Mo has admitted that it was her who did it, but isn’t it true?
It is true!
Si Jinxing didn't care whether Si Junshan understood or not, and continued:
"Originally, Mrs. Mo has already confessed her guilt and should be sent to Jingzhao Prefecture today.
But our old lady and this Mrs. Mo have a deep affection for each other as master and servant, so perhaps they will reminisce about the past!
Let’s postpone it for one day and send it tomorrow!”
Si Junshan would not refuse, and said:
"Tie this thief to the woodshed and send her to Jingzhao Prefecture tomorrow!"
The matter came to an end with Si Junshan's words, and everyone dispersed.
As soon as Si Jinxing arrived at Suihua Garden, Pei Qingzhu, Zhao Yu, and Manager Fang followed.
"Have you been here for a long time?" Si Jinxing waved his hand, asked a few people to sit down, and called Yan Fei over as well.
Pei Qingzhu said:
"The guard outside the mansion gate said that the mansion was taking care of household chores, so we waited outside for a while. Is everything okay?"
Si Jinxing shook his head and said:
"Nothing, I called you here to tell you that I will be leaving for Huaibei tomorrow morning.
A flood there is just the beginning of a boom in all kinds of business."
Pei Qingzhu's eyes lit up and he said:
"Boss, are you suggesting we open a shop in Huaibei?"
He has been working with this young boss for more than a month and knows her too well!
How could this little girl miss such a good opportunity?
Zhao Yu looked expectant and said, "That's great!
Our Jirentang is now in Jianzhou, who doesn’t know it?
People from nearby states even come here to buy our patented medicines!"
Manager Fang and Yan Fei also expressed their agreement.
The gate of Suihua Garden was closed tightly. Several people discussed for a full hour. When it got dark, Pei Qingzhu and the other two said goodbye and left.
Si Jinxing hurriedly finished her dinner, then took Qingchan out of the yard and disappeared into the night.
In autumn, it gets dark very quickly!
Chaiyuan is located in the northwest corner not far from Suihuayuan, and the courtyard is silent!
At this moment, a figure slowly approached the firewood yard in the cover of night, and knocked the gatekeeper unconscious while she was off guard.
The black shadow looked around and pushed open the wooden door of the woodshed.
"Sister Mo, you've suffered so much, I'll help you get rid of it! Run away quickly while it's dark!"
It’s Mother Lin’s voice!
Mrs. Mo rubbed her shoulders, which were hurt by the rope, and said hesitantly:
"Where...where can I escape to? Will the general send someone to recapture me?"
Mother Lin concealed the dim light in her eyes and said soothingly:
"It didn't cause any serious trouble to the Second Miss. You know the General has always disliked her.
If it weren't for the imperial edict, the general might not have bothered with this matter at all! Don't worry, just run away quickly! "
Seeing that she still had concerns, Mother Lin reached out and took out a purse and said:
"Thanks to my sister's kindness today, the old lady didn't want you to go to that prison, so she gave you some silver to keep you safe!
No matter where you flee to, this money is enough for your family to live for ten or eight years!"
Mrs. Mo took the purse handed to her by Mother Lin. It was heavy and there seemed to be a silver note inside!
She secretly made up her mind and nodded, "Thank you, Sister Lin."
The wooden door creaked open.
Mrs. Mo, holding Mother Lin's hand, took a step toward the door, but was suddenly shocked on the spot!
Mother Lin’s face turned pale instantly. What happened?
The yard was originally pitch black, but suddenly a torch lit up. The bright light was so bright that the two men couldn't even open their eyes!
I only vaguely saw two people standing in the middle of the yard. Who were they?
