C24 Cross of General Angle

After the short exchange of Purple Stone Cottage with each other, Su Lingshan's side had not moved at all. Su Ying's side had also become unusually quiet, as she could not find an opportunity due to the madame's tight watch on the previous matter.

It was just that this quiet backyard seemed as if it was going to rain at any moment. However, Su Zijin was not afraid at all, because at this moment, all of her attention was on the box in front of her.

Su Zijin's eyebrows knitted together tightly as she looked at the silver taels inside the box that could be counted with one hand. Who knew how many times she had sighed.

Ever since she was ridiculed by the Young Master Li that day, Su Zijin had truly experienced the importance of silver coins. Besides, she was in debt right now, and she still owed Jun Guchen.

Therefore, she must repay Jun Guchen's money as soon as possible, redeem the jade pendant, and completely cut off all connections with him.

To return money, one had to have money. To have money, one had to have money, and to have money, one had to have both capital and means of making money.

As someone who had been reborn, Su Zijin had always wanted as much as she could. It was just a matter of capital …

She had originally thought that she would get fifteen taels of silver every month. After so many years in the inner chamber, she did not spend much, so she should have some leftovers.

Not to mention making money, even a stall on Jinling Street wasn't enough.

"Miss, don't sigh. That's all you have left. "You see, the inner chamber doesn't have much money, but the daily expenses of maidservant, the servant of our courtyard, are all from you. Occasionally, you have to spend money in order to reward people." Xia Hee felt helpless looking at the broken silver in the box. She was the one who cared the most about the box and clearly understood what was going on inside it.

Normally, he spent a lot of money on these kinds of things, but this knife was the most injurious one. He had to cut a few of them this month, 15 taels of silver was only enough to pay for it.

Su Zijin couldn't blame her for everything that had happened because she had been too optimistic. She had forgotten that people in the inner chamber didn't like to have too much free money, so the monthly allowance was based on the monthly expenses. At most, they could get one or two silver coins more and occasionally even some extra.

After all these years, Xia Hee had a good family background for her to keep these silver taels.

Just thinking about it made him sad. What could these few taels of silver be made into? Wasn't it as difficult as taking a walk in the park if one didn't have the means to earn money?

Everything was empty.

"Forget it, forget it. It seems I'll have to let this matter go for now." Su Zijin helplessly pushed the box open and laid her body on the table, feeling helpless.

Before Xia Hee could say anything to comfort Su Zijin, Liu Zhu hurriedly walked in from outside. She said, "Miss, Country Princess Mu and the princess have arrived. They want you to pass through Fallen Ying Courtyard."

"Prefecture Princess Mu is here?" Su Zijin's dimmed eyes lit up instantly.

Prefecture Princess Mu could be said to be Su Zijin's savior.

Sofia was the only daughter of Prefecture Prince Mu and DayGreat General, and since Country Princess Mu and Madame Xu were both at the same time the daughter of a marquis, both of them a little boyish, they had been together since childhood. Naturally, the two of them had a lot of contact with each other as well. Su Zijin was a childhood friend of Prefecture Princess Mu's.

Prefecture Prince Mu was an infatuated man who only married Country Princess Mu, and there were only one daughter in the family. Prefecture Princess Mu, as an only daughter, was not a schemer in the court, so she was straightforward and a bit carefree, but she was a good businessman.

As Prefecture Prince Mu was a distant relative of the Emperor, he had no real power after generations. Fortunately, the cover was in Lin City, which was a rich place. Therefore, Prefecture Prince Mu's family had been doing business for generations. Prefecture Princess Mu also liked to do business, but unfortunately for her, she never had the chance to do so until she finally married Crown Prince Nanping. In just four short years, she had already surpassed Prefecture Prince Mu.

At that time, as a child, Prefecture Princess Mu had given her a lot of help. However, she wouldn't wait that long in this life. Now, she wanted to resolve this desperate situation.

After changing her clothes, Su Zijin led Xia Hee along the corridor to the Fallen Ying Courtyard.

The third house, First Wife, lived in the east yard, not far from Purple Stone Cottage. When they walked to Purple Stone Cottage, Su Zijin saw Madame Xu walking out of the main hall with a tall middle-aged woman who was in her early thirties with a face as white as jade and a heroic air around her eyebrows.

Behind the two of them followed a thirteen-fourteen year old girl. She wore a peach colored half-sleeve, a pink colored skirt, and had a bun that hung down from her temples. Her fair and pure face had some flesh to it, and her pair of large eyes looked around, her long eyelashes flashing as if she knew how to dance.

"Greetings, Princess Country Princess Mu." Su Zijin greeted the three people who had just walked out of the courtyard and greeted them warmly.

"Zijin!" "I've finally seen you. I've been thinking about you the whole way here." Before Country Princess Mu could nod, Princess Mu Yutong jumped out from behind and held Su Zijin's hand as she spoke.

"Yutong!" How come you don't have any rules at all? Have you forgotten what I told you before you left? " Country Princess Mu's brows frowned. She didn't get angry, but she still had her might.

Seeing Mu Yutong lower her head like a scolded puppy, Su Zijin tried to smooth things over for her. "Princess has a lively nature and knows me well, so there's no need to be so restrained."

"Zijin, why did you call me princess? Didn't I tell you before? I told you to call me Yutong, otherwise I would have called you Eldest Miss Su." Mu Yutong glared at Su Zijin with slight anger, as if she was about to do so if Su Zijin didn't agree.

In her rebirth, Su Zijin had always been careful not to leave anyone with a place to pick on. Naturally, she had lost the innocence of her youth. Looking at Mu Yutong's adorable and embarrassed appearance, Su Zijin could only helplessly let her take over.

"Good, good, good. Yutong, Yutong, I was wrong. I won't do it again."

"That's more like it. Next time, don't do it again." Mu Yutong raised her head high to tell everyone about her victory.

Seeing Su Zijin petting Mu Yutong and Mu Yutong's innocent and cute appearance, the surrounding people couldn't help but laugh.

"Look at these two girls, they look so much like us two hours ago." Madame Xu's eyebrows curved into a smile as she thought back to her old age. She felt a sense of nostalgia.

Country Princess Mu patted Madame Xu's hand in agreement and said with a smile, "You and I are like you and me, but these two sisters rarely see each other. Today, we'll let them go on their own and chat alone."

Madame Xu knew that Country Princess Mu was deliberately finding reasons to talk to her alone. She wanted to refuse, but she couldn't bear to look into Country Princess Mu's eyes, so she nodded and instructed Su Zijin, "Zijin, take the princess around for a bit. I'll send someone to find you during dinner time."

"Yes." Su Zijin agreed without hesitation.

She was just worried that she wouldn't have the chance to talk to her savior alone about the road to wealth in the future. Since Country Princess Mu had created this opportunity for her, how could she not agree?
