After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!

Chapter 72 I wish I could find a crack in the ground to crawl into

Su Yi heard that those old women were blocking the gate of Qichi Courtyard and were shouting and cursing outside, wishing they could tear down the gate.

She was secretly pleased with herself.

But two days later, the housekeeper came to her with a list of names, "My dear cousin, all the people on the list have been sent away, and they have received their monthly salary and their deeds have been returned."

"They're all gone?" Su Yi asked in surprise, "Are they willing to leave? Are they not causing any trouble?"

"Why didn't they make a scene?" the housekeeper sighed, "They made it to Qichiyuan and almost got into a fight!

"Those people in the outer courtyard are really outrageous. They actually surrounded the young master's car! The young lady was scared!

"I guess the young lady gave them money to appease them! Only then did they agree to leave!"

Su Yi curled the corners of her mouth coldly.

Those people are so brave, they dare to think and do! They surrounded Jingyou, Jingyou is Song Mingli's lifeblood, won't she bleed?

"My cousin's wife said she had no money! But she is rich!" Su Yi deliberately expressed her dissatisfaction in front of the housekeeper.

The housekeeper sighed, "I heard that it was money borrowed from her parents' home. It was supposed to be used for half a year, but now it's all given away."

Su Yi was very proud. She cut down on her expenses and Song Mingli paid for it.

When Mrs. Gu and her aunt praised her later, it was also her credit.

Song Mingli paid the money, but he couldn't get any credit and was hated by the Gu family!

Let’s see how she can gain a foothold in the Gu family in the future!

It's only half a year's worth of flowers! She got it cheap!

After sending the housekeeper away, Su Yi was in a good mood. She took the list to find Sun and told her about her spending cuts.

"These are all the old people in the Marquis' Mansion. It's not good to drive them away, right?" Sun hesitated, "In fact, the most useless ones are those people in the old lady's yard!

"Most of them are poor relatives from her mother's side! She has seven or eight maids to do the laundry alone! How can there be so many clothes to be washed?"

Su Yi sneered in her heart, did he think she was stupid?

As soon as he entered the Marquis' Mansion, he started to attack the old lady's yard?

"These people are old and can't do much. If we dismiss them, we can save ten taels of silver a month!"

Su Yi smiled complacently, "Besides, they can't blame the Marquis' Mansion, they will only hate Song Mingli..."

Su Yi told Sun about how she had cheated Song Mingli.

Sun had been frustrated with Song Mingli recently. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "Okay! You have to come again!"

"Shan'er should have taken you into the mansion earlier! If you had come earlier, I wouldn't have to suffer in front of her all the time!

"Just wait! Even though they are servants, they have vicious tongues! They curse her day and night! Curse her to death!"

Because Nanny Zhou instructed those who were dismissed not to make it public.

If they make it known, the young lady won't be able to arrange jobs for them.

When it comes to their own jobs, these people keep their mouths shut.

When the Gu family asked about it, these people remained silent and only said that the young lady subsidized the severance pay and they had found new jobs.

Within three days, all these people left Gu Mansion.

After leaving the Gu family and going to the place arranged for them by the young lady, these people became less tight-lipped.

The servants in various prefectures in Kyoto were inevitably from the same hometown or were related to each other.

How stingy the Gu family is, how harshly they treat their servants, how generous and kind the young mistress is, how she doesn't manage the household, and yet she has to clean up the mess for the Gu family...

The news had already spread among the lower classes in various prefectures in Kyoto.

Gu Qingshan didn’t know this.

He heard from Su Yi that she saved the Gu family a lot of expenses by laying off a group of people who only received wages but did not do any work.

You can save ten taels of silver a month.

Although ten taels of silver is not a lot, it would be a relief for him.

"It's better if you are willing to help me. They will just force me to find a solution." Gu Qingshan was secretly making out with Su Yi in the west wing of Chongming Hall.

Su Yi was secretly proud, this company, it wasn't that difficult to be the boss!

……

After two days, Gu Qingshan finally borrowed the face of his old friend and shamelessly squeezed into the banquet of a group of young masters.

Unexpectedly, Cui Jiashilang was invited to the banquet.

If this young man from a top-notch family could support himself in front of his elders.

There will be plenty of opportunities to climb up in the future!

Gu Qingshan was enthusiastic and kept looking for opportunities to toast to the young master of the Cui family.

The young master of the Cui family didn’t look at him straight in the eye at first, but he heard from the people around him that he was the eldest son of the Marquis of Changning, Gu Qingshan.

“Gu Qingshan! I know you!” Cui Silang suddenly said.

Gu Qingshan's heart was pounding. God bless him! His chance had come!

"You have married a virtuous wife! It's really great to have a virtuous wife at home!" Cui Silang sighed with a smile.

Gu Qingshan's face froze... What does this have to do with Song Mingli? Was he deliberately teasing him?

Everyone else at the table started laughing too.

Gu Qingshan looked a bit embarrassed.

"Don't laugh, I'm serious!" Cui Silang put away his smile, "I heard from my little fifteen that your family dismissed a group of old servants who worked in the mansion at that time.

"The old marquis said that as long as they worked hard, he would provide for them in their old age! But you only gave them an extra half month's salary and sent them away!

"Oh! What you did is not fair. Even if you have difficulties, it is better than theirs, right? You asked people to move out of the mansion within three days. Aren't you trying to force them to death?"

Gu Qingshan took a deep breath.

How come Cui Silang knew more about this matter than him?

Move out within three days? Didn't Su Yi tell him that?

Su Yi only said that Song Mingli gave them severance pay and they left voluntarily!

"Did Cui Silang misunderstand? How could he only give an extra half month's salary? Our mansion gave us severance pay!

"The Marquis' Mansion no longer has the glory of the past, and there are not so many masters anymore, so we shouldn't waste money, so we dismissed them..."

Cui Silang looked at him with a half-smile, "You don't know how they curse your mansion in private, right?

"If it weren't for your virtuous wife, who arranged a home for them and also gave them some money, do you think they wouldn't have spread the news to everyone in Kyoto? My little fifteen saw it with her own eyes and heard it with her own ears, how could it be false?"

"Oh, yes, my servants also heard about it. They told me it as a joke!" Someone at the table immediately echoed.

"Well, you don't know that the Song family borrowed the money from the Song family!" Someone at the table knew more, "The Song family has been squeezed to the edge of the court. If it weren't for Prince Jing's concern for the old general, the Song family would have been squeezed out of the capital. How could they still need the Song family to help the Changning Marquis' Mansion?"

"Master Gu, you can't do this. How can we play with you if you keep doing this?" There was a dandy who enjoyed teasing others and made fun of him deliberately.

Gu Qingshan's face turned blue and red.

He originally stood up and toasted Cui Silang.

As a result, now I can neither stand nor sit, and I wish I could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Fortunately, his friend next to him pulled him to sit down and said, "Drink, drink!"

Gu Qingshan didn’t know how he managed to finish the drink.

After Cui Silang said that, he felt that everyone at the table was looking at him with contempt and mockery.

Cui Silang must have done it on purpose!

Gu Qingshan was depressed and drank a lot. He returned to the Gu Mansion drunk and went straight to Chongming Hall.

Su Yi had just fallen asleep when she heard a gentle patting sound.

"Who is it so late?" Su Yi didn't want to get up.

"I, open the door." Gu Qingshan's low and suppressed voice came.
