Shuxiang was also a smart man. He was sent by Su Wenyue. Although he did not take credit for Su Wenyue in his words, nor did he say anything that sounded nice. His words were just the most plain, but they made these wounded soldiers feel extremely grateful.
Since Madam has such kind intentions, she must let these people know so that her efforts will not be in vain. Although Madam has no intention of seeking fame or reputation by doing this, and she does it purely out of kindness, they, as servants, must consider Madam's side.
"Thank you, ma'am. We will remember your kindness."
These disabled soldiers were very grateful to Su Wenyue for the care they received, including food, shelter and respect. They did not expect that there was something that warmed their hearts even more. Although they were injured on the battlefield, it was an honorable injury and they should have received better care, but the reality was not so good.
When they have lost their original value, cannot fight on the battlefield, have physical disabilities, and are almost useless, it is even more impossible for them to have any chance to move forward. Even if their superiors are relatively lenient to them, they will inevitably be schemed against and deducted by the villains below, and in the end they will get very little, not to mention scarce items like medicine. It would be better to use it on useful people than on these useless people.
This is the truth and the reality, they had no choice but to accept it, but they still felt unfair in their hearts. Now that they were treated like this by the general's wife, all the grievances and unfairness they had suffered before spread in their hearts, and they were particularly moved. If the general's wife didn't really care about them, she wouldn't pay attention to these details.
"Madam did this not to make you remember her kindness. If you really want to repay Madam, don't do anything that will harm the General's Mansion in the future. Just be quiet and behave yourself. That will be your way of repaying Madam."
After Shuxiang answered like this, the disabled soldiers present stopped talking, because saying anything more at this time would seem hypocritical. It would be better to do something practical to repay the lady's kindness. They will definitely remember the lady's kindness to them in their hearts.
Shuxiang is actually better at observing and using people's hearts than Xiaoxi, which is why he is valued by Su Wenyue. After looking at the expressions of the people present, he realized that the effect he wanted had been achieved, and left with Xiaoxi very satisfied.
"Shuxiang, you are really amazing. Just a few words can make them grateful to the lady. I don't have such ability." Xiaoxi said with admiration.
She did not feel unhappy or have any thoughts about Su Wenyue's appreciation of Shuxiang. In her opinion, as long as it was good for the Madam, there was no reason to object. What's more, she really admired Shuxiang's abilities. Even though she had been with the Madam and the Madam had trained her for so long, she knew in her heart that she could not compare with Shuxiang's abilities. Shuxiang was also loyal to the Madam. She would not be jealous and would not do anything because of it. The important thing was that she knew in her heart that the Madam trusted her the most, more than anyone else. It was enough for her to understand this.
Shuxiang could feel the sincerity in Xiaoxi's words. She was not like the maids in other wealthy families who used all kinds of tricks to win favor. They followed the lady and were more like a family, helping and supporting each other. Therefore, they did not say any hypocritical and polite words to Xiaoxi.
"Xiao Xi, you did a good job. Everyone is good at different things. I may not be as good as you in some areas. Let's learn from each other. In short, we are all doing things for the lady, so let's not argue about who is better." Shu Xiang said sincerely.
"Yes! We are all working for the Madam. We shouldn't argue over who's better. You and I are sisters." Xiaoxi agreed. After that, the two smiled at each other, feeling that something was added and they became closer.
Shuxiang and Xiaoxi returned to Su Wenyue, but saw Su Wenyue holding a piece of note in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking about. She put the note down only when she saw them come back.
"Madam, what is this post about? Have you encountered any difficult problems again?" Xiaoxi asked directly, out of concern and habit.
After hearing Xiaoxi's question, Su Wenyue did not blame Xiaoxi for overstepping her bounds or being dissatisfied. She knew that Xiaoxi was just like that and that she was just concerned about her.
Shuxiang was envious when she saw this, but it was just envy. Although she was more capable and excellent than Xiaoxi in many aspects, her position in the lady's heart would never be as high as Xiaoxi's, even though she knew that the lady trusted her very much. She always felt that there was something between Xiaoxi and the lady that they didn't have. Perhaps it was because Xiaoxi had been with the lady since she was a child, and the feelings they had cultivated over the years, Xiaoxi didn't have the same awe of the lady as they did in their hearts. For example, Xiaoxi could ask the question directly without thinking, but she couldn't. It was a problem of character, and she also lacked Xiaoxi's innocent heart. Xiaoxi was sincere to the lady, as long as it was for the good of the lady, and didn't care whether she would be blamed or not.
"It's a post from the City Lord's Mansion, inviting me to attend the flower viewing banquet."
Seeing Xiaoxi looking at her with concern and worry, Su Wenyue shook her head. She was just thinking about something else. It was heard that Yin Lihua and Chen Li came to Peicheng one after another two days ago. If this banquet was no exception, they should also be present.
Thinking of the fact that the city lord's only daughter Liu Xinru was quite attentive to Liu Xiu and often went to Liu Xiu's place during this period, it was obvious that she had some intentions, and the city lord did not stop it, but let it develop. Su Wenyue really wanted to know how Yin Lihua would react. It was really unfortunate for her to meet a man like Liu Xiu as his wife. A man like that only cared about his career and didn't have any sincerity.
When Xiaoxi heard that it was the invitation from the city lord, inviting Su Wenyue to go to appreciate the flowers, the worry on her face did not diminish at all. In her opinion, because of Zhou Yao's matter, they had already had a grudge with the people in the city lord's mansion. Zhou Yao was the niece of the city lord's wife. Even if they had only an ordinary relationship, she was still a legitimate niece. The fact that the wife had slapped Zhou Yao in the face and kicked her out last time was enough to offend the city lord's wife.
"Madam, will the mayor's wife retaliate against you because of that crazy woman?"
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"No, the City Lord's wife is not so petty. This flower viewing banquet is actually meant to build relationships with everyone. Even if the City Lord's wife is dissatisfied with me because of Zhou Yao's matter, at least she won't do anything too extreme on the surface. As long as this is the case, I can handle your wife."
Su Wenyue said confidently, not worried at all that the city lord's wife would make things difficult for her because of Zhou Yao's matter. According to the information, the city lord's wife was not very smart, but she was definitely not stupid, which was enough. As long as she was not too stupid, she would not do anything too extreme even if she was embarrassed. After all, Liu Wenyong had already made his attitude clear when Han Yu came to seek justice for her.
