Chapter 24 Five Taels of Silver



The next day.

The maids in the Chen household got up early one by one.

What happened yesterday has taken root in everyone's mind; they can't forget it even if they want to.

Many people and many things they saw, they pretended not to see.

For example, Chen Fan and Chen Xin knelt outside the old lady's summer residence for a whole night, begging her not to send Aunt Zhao to the estate.

Aunt Zhao also made a scene all night.

Unfortunately, none of this could change the old lady's mind.

Later, the old lady did not appear, and Chen Fan and Chen Xin saw Aunt Zhao off.

When Aunt Zhao left, she kowtowed to the old lady.

The door to Xia Ju remained closed, and no one watched Aunt Zhao's tearful performance.

After the mother and her two children left, the maids and servants of the Chen household all breathed a sigh of relief.

No one could compare to the old lady's status in the Chen family.

Yesterday, the old lady's attitude was clear, and Chen Siyuan was not someone to be trifled with. No matter how capable Aunt Zhao was, she was just a servant, not a mistress.

They were all flogged yesterday and are still in pain, but the doctor prescribed medicine for them, and each of them received five taels of silver as compensation.

After experiencing these things, their hearts gradually gravitated towards the young lady.

They had all heard that the maids in the warm quarters could ask the young lady for help if they encountered any difficulties.

Everyone encounters problems, and when they meet a generous young lady, they are naturally willing to accept them.

Over the years, they've been doing things for the Chen family, and I've seen it all clearly.

Aunt Zhao eats well, dresses well, and wears fine clothes; it's all thanks to the eldest young lady.

Every year, the Wen family of Beicheng would send over boxes and boxes of treasures, all of which ended up in Aunt Zhao's hands.

Even a tiny bit of money from the young lady's hands would be enough to eat and drink for a lifetime.
