I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 19 Relegated to common people

Dong's heart sank, and she frowned and said, "This... is impossible. Aunt Guan goes to Xuanqing Temple to deliver money every year and never fails."

Ling Chu twitched the corners of his lips and did not respond to her words.

Then the nun doesn’t live in the same cell as them, so even if you want to question her, you can’t.

Ms. Dong looked guilty and said, "Sister Chu, it's my mother who couldn't help you and didn't find out about this. If you...if you want to blame, blame your mother. It's your mother who didn't fulfill her responsibilities to you."

The third girl, Ling Qing, saw Dong's guilt and said hurriedly, "Mom, it's not your fault. There are more than a hundred people in our house, and it's hard for you to take care of the middle school in the house. You also have to take care of your father, and the eldest brother is weak. , energy is limited, you didn’t notice these little things, it’s not your fault.”

Ling Chu gave her a sarcastic look, yes, Mr. Dong was very busy all day long.

I am busy taking care of more than a hundred people in my house, but I just can't spare the time to pay attention to my daughter who is far away in Xuanqingguan.

 Ling Chu was not sad.

 The original owner is sad.

　That is a poor little person whose father has not cared for him since he was little, and whose mother has not loved him.

Although she has relatives, she is no different from an orphan girl.

The second lady and the third lady looked at each other. Neither of them expected that the eldest lady would ignore their daughter so completely.

There was silence in the cell. The wife opened her eyes, glanced at Mr. Dong with dissatisfaction, turned her head and said slowly, "Sister Chu, my grandmother knows that you have been wronged. Your mother did not notice this, and it was her fault.

However, what your third sister said is right. Your mother is in charge of the household. She has to serve me, an old woman, and your grandfather, and she also has to take care of the juniors in the household. She has no free time all year round.

 Grandma was also wrong. She didn't notice that something was wrong with the servants in the house. But grandma promises you that when you get out, she will deal with grandma Guan and give you a satisfactory explanation. What do you think? "

Ling Chu quietly glanced at the Madam and said noncommittally, "It all depends on grandma."

She knew that the Madam wanted to make the decision for her, not because she had been wronged or because she felt sorry for her. But I heard that she didn't ask Master Ning to help plead for mercy, because she thought she had resentment.

Proposed to deal with Nanny Guan, hoping to calm her down so that she could go to Lord Ning to plead for mercy.

Although Mrs. Tai did not say it clearly, Ling Chu knew that the prerequisite for dealing with Aunt Guan was that she could get everyone out of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment alive.

 The original owner is dead, so it doesn’t make much sense to not take care of the nanny everywhere.

 Actually, Ling Chu had a doubt in her mind. Although she didn't know who Aunt Guan was, as a servant, could she be so bold as to steal the money from her donation?

The eldest master's concubine, Aunt Rongming, said to Ling Chu in a soft voice, "Miss, your brother has been weak since he was a child, and I don't know what is going on in that prison now. If you can, please ask someone to take care of him." It doesn’t matter if you give him some clean food or a bowl of water, it’s all good.”

Seeing that Ling Chu just looked at her with cold eyes but said nothing, Aunt Wen felt unhappy.

But after a pause, he continued, "The eldest girl is now grown up, and when she gets out of this prison, she will be old enough to say goodbye.

 It turns out that you are not in the house, and you are not familiar with your brothers and sisters at home. Although your eldest brother is physically weak, he is kind-hearted and has always cared about you, the twin sister.

There is also your third brother, although his temper is a little more lively, but he still talks about you, the eldest sister, from time to time.

I have been planning to go to Xuanqing to see you before, but I saw that he had a bad temper and was worried about him going out, so I didn't let him go.

The aunt is not right. After all, you are a sister, and your aunt shouldn't stop him to see you. But from now on when the eldest girl stays with us, I will let your third brother get along well with you, the eldest sister.

If you have anything to do in the future, just ask him to run errands. He is older now and is not as naughty as before, so he can handle things reasonably well.

If...if the emperor is willing to be lenient and let you juniors out, even if we elders are gone, you siblings can support each other in the future, and we will not be worried about leaving. "

Ling Chu raised his eyebrows, this Aunt Wen is not simple.

This is because the Second Madam and the others have a bad attitude, and they guess that she may be soft-spoken, and they are playing the tenderness card towards her.

First, she mentioned that her twin brother was weak and asked her to find someone to take care of him and give him food and water. If she had done so, her brother would not have had to eat and drink to himself. The third brother is in the same cell as him, so he should be able to get some food.

 Aunt Wen is very smart and wants to help her son in a roundabout way.

The third brother once made a fuss about going to Xuanqing to see her, but was stopped by Aunt Wen. She bluntly said that she was not doing the right thing and that she could bend and stretch.

 The most important thing is that it’s time for her to have a haircut.

 This is to remind her that when she gets married in the future, she cannot do without the support of her natal brothers.

Even if Ling Chu doesn’t want to care about other people’s lives, he still has to think about himself, right?

 So, even if it is just for herself, she must rescue the eldest brother and the third brother.

Ling Chu looked at her with a half-smile, "Aunt Wen, you can go with peace of mind, but I won't let you leave without peace of mind. Even if I'm the only one left, I can handle the rest of the things smoothly." "

Aunt Wen is her father's concubine. Even for her father's sake, she has to manage her affairs smoothly.

Aunt Wen, considering her dedicated efforts, should she be able to gain more merit, right?

Ling Chu’s words made Aunt Wen speechless.

 For a moment, Aunt Wen felt that the girl's eyes seemed to see through her little thoughts.

But as soon as the idea came up, I felt it was impossible.

 The eldest girl is only just old enough to have hairpins, how can she guess her thoughts?

Others saw that Aunt Wen, a well-rounded person, was frustrated by Ling Chu's hands, and they all shut up in a wise manner.

Lingchu's ears were now clear.

When Ma Dalin distributed food to the prisoners in the prison, he prepared another portion for Ling Chu.

Lingchu divided out a share and asked the horse jailer to take it to the men's cell and give it to her eldest brother.

　　It was not because of her motherly heart, but because the person behind the assassination of the original owner had not yet been found out, so she had better not appear too strong, lest the people behind him become wary.

When Mrs. Tai and the others saw this, they all had a little smile on their faces. Aunt Wen felt proud. It seemed that the eldest girl had taken her words into her heart.

 No matter how tough you say, as a girl, you still have to rely on your family.

This night, Ling Chu still couldn't calm down.

 The sixth girl was possessed by a puppet spirit that appeared out of nowhere and made a fuss asking the jailer to let her out.

 The second lady and the others saw that her words and deeds suddenly changed into that of a man, and they were so frightened that they cried and shouted.

Lingchu had no choice but to take action and use talisman to drive the puppet soul out of the sixth girl's body.

 When she took action, the other ghosts knew that she had yin and yang eyes, and almost made dumplings out of her.

 Fortunately, Ling Chu inherited the skills of the original owner, so nothing happened.

But this whole night, she didn't dare to close her eyes and sleep.

 After staying up all night, I finally got some good news the next day.

　　Everybody in Shangshu Mansion was demoted to common people.
