Sure enough, her three older maids and her four children's personal maids and servants were all there.
When the three older maids discovered that their master and her biological children had not returned, they realized that this might be the day.
So they not only took the box, but also brought all the valuable things they could bring from their yard, including silver jewelry, precious Hui ink, and expensive mermaid dresses. Everyone took the most valuable things they could, but they were the girls' own things.
In addition, they also told the servants of the four young masters. These personal servants and maids were extremely smart and avoided other people in the yard and packed up the most valuable things of their young ladies and masters.
The banknotes accumulated over the years, the young ladies' jewelry and head ornaments, and the private property of the young masters, although they were young and didn't have much of these things, they tried to take as much as they could.
Yuan Zhixi took inventory and smiled for the first time in the past few days. She praised the girls, saying, "Good, very good, well done."
The personal maids and servants of the two young masters and two young ladies met up with the maids and servants they had brought with them. They learned about what had happened in the past few days and saw the seriously injured young master. They were all furious and planned to leave with a common hatred for the enemy.
Since Yuan Zhixi was planning to leave, she still wanted to tell Shuxin. After telling Shuxin, Shuxin thought that if she and her mother did not have Yuan Zhixi, the mistress of the house, to uphold justice, she would be like meat on the chopping board after she returned, and Weng Hui could cut her however she wanted.
Old Mrs. Mei can't protect them forever. There will always be times when she can't take care of them. She can endure it, but what if her daughter encounters something like this again?
Shu Xin asked Yuan Zhixi, "Can I go with you?" Fearing that Yuan Zhixi would not agree, Shu Xin said, "My maid is also smart. She secretly noticed that your maids were different from usual, so she brought out all the valuables in our yard."
Shuxin opened a box in front of Yuan Zhixi. Yuan Zhixi didn't expect that Shuxin also had quite a few banknotes, so she looked at her in surprise.
Shu Xin said: "They are all rewards from the official residence and my own monthly salary. Because I am extremely frugal, when I was a maid, I ate and lived in the residence. When I became a concubine, I still ate and lived in the residence. I have my share.
All the rewards I received over the years, the monthly allowance, and the silver that the Second Master gave me after I became a maid and after I was promoted to a concubine, these two rewards were relatively large."
When the second master of the Mei family was mentioned again, both of them were a little silent. They both knew that Mei Xuanqi had someone in his heart, and when they had no other choice, they had thought about living a good life with the second master of the Mei family.
But now it seems unlikely.
After the matter of building the ancestral hall and revising the family tree was completed, Old Mrs. Mei always felt that something was not right, so she called the driver who had been driving back and forth this time to question him.
The driver replied, "I heard vaguely that the Second Master was teaching his son and whipped a few young masters. They were all injured."
After hearing this, Old Lady Mei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said to the nanny beside her, "Go to Yuan Zhixi's yard and take a look. Have all her valuable things been taken away?"
Old Mrs. Mei then ordered someone to call her son Mei Xuanqi and asked him what had happened in the Plum Garden.
Mei Xuanqi had no choice but to tell her the general situation. Old Madam Mei said, "Weng Hui is in poor health. You pity her and want to save her life. That is a matter between you and her. Why would you beat a child to please a concubine? Are you unreasonable?"
You protect her so much just because she looks like Wu Shuangshuang, but even if she is Wu Shuangshuang, is she any good? "
Hearing his mother's harsh words, Mei Xuanqi suddenly looked up at his mother. Old Mrs. Mei said, "Don't look at me like that." How did she scold Ruyi?
If Wu Shuangshuang was really a good person, when she knew that Ruyi was wronged, she would not send someone to call you away in the morning. She would have asked someone to tell you the truth directly. Whether she wrote a note or asked someone to pass on a verbal message, if she had not delayed that morning, I am afraid Ruyi would have survived.
And you can't dwell on this. When did she find out that the things were not lost? She found out when she returned home that day. You said she didn't sleep well that night because of this.
She didn't sleep well last night, and she didn't even send a message the night before?
Don't say you might have discovered it before going to bed at night and you don't want to disturb her. She is not such an honest and well-behaved girl.
In order to attend her best friend's coming-of-age ceremony the next day and to outdo the main character, Wu Shuangshuang came to you in the middle of the night to open your warehouse and borrow the entire set of ruby head ornaments that I had included as a dowry.
She asked the doorman and the night watchman to wake you up, and you went to your sister-in-law to open the storeroom because of her. Your sister-in-law sent someone to ask me about this matter. It has already alarmed all the courtyards in our house.
You were fourteen years old that year, and I didn't want to embarrass you in front of the girl you liked, so I nodded.
A girl who could do such a thing for her own selfish reasons couldn't even come to tell you that she had wronged someone. Did she not sleep well all night? The one who didn't sleep well was Ruyi, who had been punished to kneel all night.
Although Ruyi is a servant, we have watched her grow up. She has been serving you since she was a child. Do you really not know whether she will take other people's things?
Or, as long as Wu Shuangshuang says it's black, it's black, and if she says it's white, it's white? You won't even think about it, won't even investigate?
Are you going to make trouble again now?
You want Weng Hui, who has a heart disease, to live well, but you can't use other people's lives, healthy lives, to fill the hole she dug.
You always said that Wu Shuangshuang had a heart disease and that you had to be tolerant and protected. You were worried that she would die from her heart disease, but in the end, it was the healthy Ruyi who died before her.
