First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

Chapter 346 Li Yuzhu's Visit

Zhao Xiuwan snatched the chopsticks from Qian Feng's hand.

"Don't eat!" She looked at Qian Feng viciously and said, "Go out and get some money now!"

Qian Feng looked at Zhao Xiuwan in astonishment, whose expression changed like turning a page of a book, "No, Madam, where do you want me to get so much money?"

"Why should I care about you? Won't your colleagues lend it to you?" Zhao Xiuwan looked at Qian Feng with disdain. "Besides, aren't you very capable? You have always followed Wei Ling. If you have the guts, just ask Wei Ling for it!"

"Madam, what you said..." Qian Feng also got a little angry, "Who do you want me to borrow so much money from? It's not that the Marquis didn't lend me money. If you didn't spend so much last time, you would still have a thousand taels of silver at home now."

"You've been with Wei Ling for so many years, why can't you even give out three thousand taels when his family is wearing gold and silver?" Zhao Xiuwan was not afraid of Qian Feng's eyes at all, and pinched her waist and said, "Others took the spoils, and you took them too! Why did you take less than others? Not only do you not say you are incompetent, but you also yell at me? Yell at me again and see? Don't come back again!"

When Qian Feng heard this, his tone softened immediately.

He was fearless except for Zhao Xiuwan's temper.

He quickly took two steps forward and tried to hold Zhao Xiuwan's hand, but Zhao Xiuwan dodged him.

"Alright, alright, Madam." Qian Feng said with a smile, "I can't afford that much money right now!"

"I don't care. The registration will close in two days anyway. I don't care what you do. I must attend this auction. Otherwise, you can go to Wei Ling to do you a favor!" Zhao Xiuwan snorted and said, "If you can't get a ticket to the auction, don't set foot in my house again!"

"There must be some money in the store. My military pay during this period should add up to two hundred taels!" Qian Feng said, "Otherwise, Madam, please give some to make up for it."

"How dare you say that? Your monthly military pay of fifty taels of silver is not enough for anything. You don't want clothes, you don't want food! I can't even buy a decent piece of jewelry with your money. Even the former maids in the palace can act arrogantly in front of me! Who can I tell about these grievances to!" The more Zhao Xiuwan spoke, the more she felt wronged. Although that little bitch Bihe had restrained herself a lot now and didn't poke her eyes very often, she had met Bihe twice at Zheng Wenxiu's place.

Bihe's current dressing style is completely better than hers.

Moreover, this auction uses a registration system, so Bihe will definitely be able to come up with a deposit of three thousand taels.

No matter what, she was outshined by Su Jixiang because Su Jixiang's husband was Wei Ling, and she was outshined by Qu Wanning because Qu Wanning's father and brother were right in front of her and Qu Wanning was married to Xie Yingfeng.

But she has nothing lacking. She married Qian Feng. Although his rank is not as high as some generals of the Black Tiger Army, he is by Wei Ling's side. If she can't enter the place that even Bihe can enter, then she has no need to save her face!

Seeing Zhao Xiuwan shedding tears, Qian Feng was suddenly at a loss.

"Okay, okay, Madam, I'll go find a way, okay?" Qian Feng's heart softened, and he quickly tried to coax her. "No matter what, I'll let you go to the auction!"

"What's the point of just going in?" Zhao Xiuwan cursed, "I want to buy land! Do you know that the first batch of people who bought land in the new urban area have made a fortune! Some of the low prices have more than doubled! It's only been a few months. What about the future? Use your pig brain to think about it!" She poked Qian Feng's forehead hard with her finger, leaving a half-moon shaped finger mark on Qian Feng's forehead!

Qian Feng smiled and said, "I really don't know how to calculate this. But Madam, we don't have to worry about food and drink! We have a shop, a house, and I also have military pay. Can't we live well without making this money?"

"Are you stupid?" Zhao Xiuwan's chest was heaving with anger. "Who would complain about having too much money? You are working in Mangcheng now. Can you work in Mangcheng forever? What if you have the opportunity to go to the capital in the future? I don't care. I won't live in this godforsaken place forever!"

Qian Feng couldn't even lift his head after being scolded by Zhao Xiuwan. He could only keep persuading Zhao Xiuwan not to be angry.

"If you want me to not be angry, go get me three thousand taels of silver now!" Zhao Xiuwan looked at the three hundred taels of silver Qian Feng handed her, "And I want the admission ticket to the auction. Not only do I want to enter the auction, I also want to buy land! I want to make money, and I want to make all those who look down on me get out of here!"

Qian Feng was kicked out of the house, but someone came to visit Su Jixiang.

Li Yuzhu was led into the flower hall.

In the north, summer is relatively cool in places where the sun doesn't shine.

There are flower windows on three sides of the flower hall. In summer, mugwort is smoked around it. The doors and windows are ventilated, there are no mosquitoes, and it is very cool and comfortable.

"Madam, please sit down for a moment. Our lady will be here soon." Guihua said to Li Yuzhu.

Li Yuzhu hurriedly said "OK" and then sat down sideways.

Su Jixiang hadn't arrived yet, so she looked around.

This was her first time entering the general's mansion. The yard was not big, but every corner was arranged just right.

The trees are trimmed very neatly. There are not many varieties of flowers in the small garden, but they are growing well and it is obvious that they have been carefully cared for.

The whole yard is refreshing and clean, giving people a very relaxing and comfortable feeling.

Soon, footsteps were heard and Su Jixiang appeared in Li Yuzhu's sight.

Li Yuzhu quickly stood up and bowed, "Meet the Marquis."

"Please sit down. There is no need to be restrained." Su Jixiang waved his hand and asked Li Yuzhu to sit down. Then he said to Guihua, "Go and get the sour plum soup that I made today for Madam to taste."

"How can a common woman be worthy of being called Madam nowadays?" Li Yuzhu waved her hand and said, "If Madam doesn't mind, you can call me Yuzhu."

"Okay." Su Jixiang didn't bother to exchange pleasantries with Li Yuzhu and asked with a smile, "How have you been these days?"

"Okay, thanks to the Marquis and Madam's care last time, I got my money back and bought a house. Now I have a place to stay with my husband." Li Yuzhu said hurriedly.

"Is there something you want to talk to me about today?" Su Jixiang asked with a smile.

"To be honest, Madam Hou." Seeing Su Jixiang asking so directly, Li Yuzhu also bowed again, "Although my money has been recovered, my husband is in such a state now that it is difficult for him to bear the burden of the family. Now the family depends on me alone, so I want to do some small business with Madam Hou. I know that coming here like this is very abrupt, but I am not completely without things. Here are a few prescriptions for Madam Hou to take a look."
