Chapter 658
Two days later, the Su family indeed sent a servant again, wanting to secretly meet with Jixiang.
The servant who came looked like he was ready to die, and his arms were bulging.
Upon seeing Jixiang, the servant almost knelt down before her: "Miss, you've finally arrived."
Jixiang frowned, glanced back several times to make sure no one was following her, and then lowered her voice to say, "Speak quickly if you have something to say. A young lady can't be left alone, or she'll be discovered!"
The servant quickly said, "Miss Jixiang, you used to serve our mistress, so please help us this time, even if it's just for the sake of our past relationship!"
Although they were both servants, this young man's attitude had already lowered to the dust.
The servant was truly at his wit's end.
The rumors had barely started spreading in the streets when the Dali Temple officials went out and arrested all those who were spreading them. The people, seeing which way the wind was blowing, dared not say a word, and the rumors were naturally suppressed.
Su Zhengyu waited for two days, but Yun Xi showed no sign of coming to show weakness, so he couldn't sit still any longer.
And so, they sent him over again.
This wasn't the first time the servant had visited, and he knew that Jixiang wasn't so easily persuaded. However, if he returned empty-handed this time, he would inevitably be beaten and scolded when he got back.
He also needs to support his family.
Thinking of this, the servant became even more earnest.
Jixiang looked him up and down, her gaze settling on his bulging chest, and she raised her chin.
Knowing there was hope, the servant quickly lowered his voice and said, "Miss, this time the master asked me to bring two thousand taels! With this money, you won't have to live at the mercy of others for the rest of your life. Isn't that wonderful!"
Under the servant's almost eager gaze, Jixiang frowned: "If you had taken out these two thousand taels of silver earlier, I wouldn't have kept refusing to agree!"
The servant was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed: "Miss, you agreed?!"
So the reason we couldn't get her to come before was because we didn't have enough money!
Jixiang stretched out his hand to him: "Let me see you first, or you're trying to fool me."
The servant boy happily handed over what he was holding.
Perhaps to make them seem substantial, the silver notes were all in denominations of one hundred taels each, a total of twenty notes, forming a thick stack in my hand.
Jixiang weighed the silver in his hand, then said with satisfaction, "I'll take this money. Now, tell me, what do you need me for?"
Things were progressing so smoothly that the servant was caught off guard, but he didn't dare to let his guard down. He swallowed hard and hurriedly said, "Master said that you should think of a way to get the girl out of the house, like shopping or something!"
"that's all?"
The servant nodded.
Ji Xiang rolled his eyes and said, "That's not a difficult thing, but you have to tell me what your plans are afterward. Now we're all in the same boat."
"This..." The servant smiled awkwardly, "I won't lie to you, sir, I don't know what the master's plans are going to be!"
Seeing the doubt on Jixiang's face, the servant quickly said, "What I said is really the truth! After all, it's not appropriate for me to ask too many questions about what the higher-ups are planning."
Actually, when he came out today, the servant never expected that Jixiang would agree.
Jixiang hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Go back and wait. I'll send you a message if I get things done."
The servant breathed a sigh of relief: "I will keep people here to guard the place. Miss, just come and tell me what you need to say anytime!"
Jixiang nodded.
The servant only left after Jixiang turned around and went back with the purse in her hand.
Jixiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and only relaxed after returning to Shanshui Residence.
She handed over the purse in her hand and said, "Miss, the Su family gave us two thousand taels."
