Catching an adulterer at the beginning, the mistress of the Marquisate went crazy

As Aoyama Kansetsu left, the door was closed from the outside by two people.

"Come out..."

Ming Yi appeared in front of Liu Tianshu in an instant.

"How did Miss know that I was here instead of going to buy tea?"

"I suddenly smelled a scent of tea in the room, which is a scent that neither I nor Aoyama Kanxue have."

Upon hearing the reason why his whereabouts were leaked, Ming Yi frowned slightly. Just as he was about to say something, Liu Tianshu directly handed him the 1,000 tael silver note she had just received.

"Here is a thousand taels of silver. You can use nine hundred taels of it to buy tea and store it. Use the rest to buy ice and send it to the Marquis' Mansion."

Ming Yi heard clearly the conversation between Liu Tianshu and Gu Jinyun just now, so he naturally knew the source of the one thousand taels of silver.

When he heard that she took one thousand taels of silver from the other party and finally only bought ice worth one hundred taels of silver, he couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

"What are you looking at? The ice cellar in the mansion has limited space and can't hold so much ice. Buy one hundred taels of silver first and use it. When it's all used up, buy more..."

"Miss, you don't have to explain to me..."

Knowing that he was wrong, Mingyi hurriedly apologized.

"Miss, the more than 20,000 taels of silver you gave me have all been used to buy tea. Now with this 1,000 taels of silver, should we buy ice or tea first?"

"Of course I want to buy tea." Liu Tianshu said without thinking: "Just have someone send the ice over before tomorrow night."

"Yes!"

Mingyi received the order and quickly left the room.

As Ming Yi disappeared, Liu Tianshu's eyes were filled with envy.

If he also had this kind of high-flying skill, he would not be trapped in the inner house and need help from others for everything.

Unfortunately, her family was a civil servant family, and the things she was exposed to most since childhood were music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she had no chance to learn martial arts.

Liu Tianshu quickly let go of the worries she had about things she could no longer do.

"Miss, Mother Luo wants to see you..."

Qingshan's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Please ask Mrs. Luo to come in."

"Yes!"

Qingshan responded, and soon Qingshan's voice was heard from outside the door again.

"Mother Luo, Madam, please come in and talk..."

"Thank you, Miss Qingshan."

Mother Luo nodded slightly and then walked into the house.

"What brought Mother Luo to me?"

As Luo's mother came in, Liu Tianshu sat in the main seat and asked with a smile.

Ever since Luo's mother was scolded away last time, the two have not seen each other again.

Knowing that the old lady must have something to explain, Liu Tianshu did not embarrass Mother Luo, as if the last incident had never happened.

Knowing that Liu Tianshu was not someone to be trifled with, Mother Luo was now somewhat afraid to have contact with him, and so she took out five silver bills from her bosom and placed them in front of her.

"Madam, the old lady asked me to bring you five hundred taels of silver. I just hope you can open the ice cellar as soon as possible so that the young masters and young ladies in the mansion can use ice."

"Row!"

As long as the money is in place, the ice cellar can be opened at any time, but she still said it in advance.

"Mother Luo just said that this money is for the ice prepared for the young ladies in the mansion. There are a total of ten young ladies living in the mansion now, plus the old lady's, there are a total of eleven places that need ice. Am I right?"

"Yes!" Mrs. Hou did instruct her before coming here. Mother Luo nodded slightly.

"In that case, these five hundred taels of silver can only be used until the end of this month. The ice will be broken on the first day of next month."

"Madam, this... the old lady didn't instruct me to do that..."

Mother Luo looked at Liu Tianshu in embarrassment.

"I don't care what the old lady says. I only buy things with the silver I get. I don't get the excess."

"Yes!"

Through the recent contacts, Mother Luo knew that Liu Tianshu was a man of her word and did not give the old lady any face. Even if she did not get a satisfactory answer, she did not dare to continue speaking and quickly said goodbye and left.

After seeing off Mother Luo, Liu Tianshu happily accepted the five hundred taels of silver.

Five hundred taels of silver were nothing in front of the masters in the mansion, but they represented their compromise with her.

After the first time, Liu Tianshu will have ways to make them spit out the second and third times. Anyway, he will never be stupid enough to use his dowry to fill the holes created by those people in this life.

Especially when those people are not short of money, she will not pay for their expenses out of so-called filial piety.

"Miss, if you reply to the old lady like this, will she be angry?"

"So what if she's angry? Can she eat me?"

Liu Tianshu said nonchalantly, "I am just doing my job. At most, she will go to outsiders and say that I don't know how to respect my elders. But she can't take a piece of my meat. I am not afraid of what she says. Anyway, I will not spend a penny for anyone in the mansion."

"Miss, you are wise, but the banquet at the Marquis' Mansion has already exceeded the advance payment of the Marquis' Mansion. What should we do in the future?"

"After the banquet, autumn will soon begin. Once the autumn crops are harvested and sold, the income from the farm should also increase."

Liu Tianshu had naturally figured this out long ago, otherwise she would not have allowed those managers to take the money from her and leave.

Knowing that Liu Tianshu had planned everything, Qingshan said no more and stood aside, fanning her gently.

"The wind in the house is hot, let's go out for a walk..."

After carefully putting away the banknotes, Liu Tianshu led Qingshan out the door.

Almost half a month has passed, and it is time to go to the yard to check on the servants' compensation.

In the garden, Mother Fang looked at the carefully tended garden and felt like she was about to burst into tears.

It's not for any other reason, but because all the colorful flowers in this garden were rented at a high price.

Yes, ever since Mother Fang failed to buy flower seedlings from that flower shop last time, she has been going to the flower garden every day. As a result, the owner of the flower shop really changes the price every day.

Recently it has increased from the initial 3,000 taels to 13,000 taels of silver.

She couldn't even come up with three thousand taels of silver, let alone thirteen thousand taels of silver.

In the past half month, she was so worried that her hair turned white. However, in order not to be kicked out of the mansion, she had to grit her teeth and spend five thousand taels of silver to rent these flowers for two months.

Thinking that she could have bought all the flowers for only three thousand taels of silver, but now she had to spend five thousand taels of silver to rent the flowers, she felt heartbroken at the thought.

The garden was the first place where the problem was discovered, and Liu Tianshu started her inspection from the garden this time.

I thought I would find out something wrong with Fang's mother, but I didn't expect that she would really manage the entire garden in order within just half a month.

She is truly a talented person, it's a pity that she is from the Hou family, otherwise he could have kept her by his side and made good use of her.

With a soft sigh, Liu Tianshu went to other places in the mansion after not finding any mistakes in the garden.

Looking at Liu Tianshu's leaving back, Fang's mother sat down on the ground and cried.

Liu Tianshu didn't know that Mother Fang started crying after she left. She went around the entire mansion, found some deficiencies, and asked people to revise them carefully before returning to Wutong Residence...
