Chapter 2087 - 2089: I’ll Have Someone Rescue Your Son
At this moment, Yang Chuxia’s mood was truly not great. So it turns out Yunyun was harmed because she was blocking someone else’s road to wealth and honor?
Shameless, absolutely shameless. If she didn’t let these people reap what they sowed, she’d feel she was letting down her own surname.
"Madam, let’s report to the authorities. This Prime Minister’s family is just too shameless. How can someone so shameless be a Prime Minister?" Ming Lan suggested, "If this is really the handiwork of First Madam Luo of the Luo Family, once reported, the Madam of the Prime Minister will surely expose First Madam Luo."
"Agreed!" Yang Chuxia nodded, "These two families are always so concerned with saving face. Letting them take a trip to the yamen would be good, let’s see if they feel ashamed."
Mingqiu, being straightforward, said, "Madam, they probably won’t feel anything. Didn’t the Madam of the Prime Minister already make a trip to the yamen during the New Year?"
"Haha," Yang Chuxia laughed, "This time is different from last time. Last time, she could claim she was deceived by Qian Xiaoqing or that she was too kind-hearted. But this time, these people are from their own family."
"Alright, it’s late, let’s head back." Yang Chuxia then turned to look at Nanny Gui, "Don’t worry, I’ll have someone save your son."
"Madam, do you really intend to have someone save her son?" Mingqiu asked on the way.
Ming Lan replied, "Are you silly? Of course, we need to save him. Otherwise, what if Nanny Gui turns against us after we report to the authorities? If we have Nanny Gui’s son in our hands, she will undoubtedly expose the Madam of the Prime Minister when it comes to court."
Yang Chuxia nodded in agreement, "Mingqiu, you need to learn well from your Sister Ming Lan, see how perceptive she is."
"Madam, I understand." Mingqiu replied, a bit sheepishly.
Ming Lan took the opportunity to say, "Madam, this little girl has her mind set on money. You have no idea, every night before sleeping, she takes out her silver to count."
This habit was something Yang Chuxia was hearing for the first time, and she couldn’t help but laugh.
"That’s a nice hobby. I like silver too, but in the future, don’t count it before bed. That silver is so dirty, handled by so many people."
Mingqiu rubbed her head and laughed, "Silver isn’t dirty, plus my greatest wish is to earn lots and lots of silver."
"Why do you want so much silver? Are you saving for a dowry?" Yang Chuxia teased, glancing at her.
"Madam, I don’t want to get married," Mingqiu said seriously, "When I was young, my family was poor. My father sold my sister and me to support my younger brothers. Unfortunately, my sister wasn’t lucky and was beaten to death not long after being sold. If my family had been wealthy, my sister wouldn’t have been sold."
In this male-dominated society, selling sons and daughters was common. Seen enough, and one becomes numb to it.
"Madam, can I help in your shop in the future?" Mingqiu mustered the courage to ask.
"Why do you want to go to the shop?" Yang Chuxia thought of her desire to earn a lot of money and said, "Working as a junior clerk in the shop doesn’t earn much money."
"It doesn’t matter if it’s not much. I want to go to learn from the manager there, to learn how to manage a shop." Mingqiu thought, after learning, maybe she could free herself from servitude and open her own shop. Even if not, helping the madam manage the shop would earn more than being a maid. The shop managers earn several times more than they do.
"Alright!" She had the heart for it, and Yang Chuxia naturally wouldn’t stop her, "You and Ming Lan pick out a couple of smart maids, train them, and once they’re trained, you can go to the shop. When you’ve learned well, I’ll open a new shop and let you manage it."
