Chapter 471 - 471: The Madam Liang Who Wanted to Receive Her Wages
Baoya walked with her short legs and followed behind Madam Liang.
When the Liang mother-daughter two walked into the shop, the old lady was talking to Lu Erbai. She was still thinking about Tang Wenqian’s strange behavior. “Second Brother, why do you think Scholar Tang is suddenly asking so much about Yu?”
Lu Erbai said uncertainly, “It might be…Are you in a hurry?”
“I don’t think so.” The old lady shook her head. “Do you think Scholar Tang is interested in Yu? So today, the mother and daughter came together to see Yu and discuss it. In the end, when she heard that Yu wasn’t around, she looked very disappointed.”
Lu Erbai shook his head. “I don’t think so. It doesn’t look like it.”
“How is it not similar? Our Yu is so smart and good-looking. She’s the only one in the entire Shangshi Village. Scholar Tang is quite good, but his mother is not easy to get along with. If Yu marries him, she might make things difficult for Yu. Moreover, their family doesn’t have money. When Yu goes to their house, she still has to serve her in-laws, wash clothes, and cook. It’s too hard.”
Lu Erbai laughed. “Mother, you’re thinking too far ahead.”
“How far? Yu is now fourteen, and when she comes back in half a year, she will be fifteen. It’s about time to talk about marriage.” The old lady was not in a hurry before, but now she was starting to care. “I quite like that Young Master Meng. He’s both talented and beautiful. Unfortunately, his throat is injured and he can’t speak. If only he could be cured.”
Lu Erbai was speechless. His Mother was going off the topic.
Madam Liang and Baoya came in at this time.
The moment she saw her, the old lady immediately stopped talking. Madam Liang was a blabbermouth. If she went out and spouted nonsense, wouldn’t it ruin Yu’s reputation?
The old lady frowned at her. “What are you doing here? You even brought Baoya. It’s such a long journey, how can you not trouble her short legs?”
“Mother, Baoya is my daughter. Of course, I feel sorry for her. I always carry her when I leave.”
The old lady snorted coldly. She didn’t believe her. She asked Baoya to come over and give her some snacks.
Bao Ya immediately sat on the chair obediently and stuffed snacks into her mouth in satisfaction.
Madame Liang winked at her, telling her to follow the plan. In the end, when this little girl had something to eat, she completely threw her business to the side and did not even raise her head to look at her.
Madam Liang almost vomited blood. This unreliable wretched girl only knew how to eat and eat. Without money, where would she get food?
Her fierce expression was too obvious. the old lady was not blind, so she naturally saw it.
She glared at Madam Liang and said, “If you have something to say, say it. Why are you torturing the child?”
“Mother, I didn’t.”
“Hurry up and say it. I can’t be bothered to listen to your excuses.”
Madam Liang felt wronged. After a moment, she smiled and came forward, saying, “Mother, Sanzhu got paid yesterday.”
“Isn’t this a good thing?”
“That’s right. This is the second time he’s been paid. Moreover, last month, he helped a young master find a lost jade pendant. That young master casually rewarded him with a tael of silver. This month, he got two taels (monetary) of silver.”
The old lady’s eyes lit up.” Third Brother didn’t covet that jade pendant.”
Madam Liang was speechless. “What a mother. She understood her son.” She thought.
