C19 Private House

Knowing that she was about to leave, Faang Xinsu was reluctant. Ever since she was young, she had seen countless maids, but she had rarely seen anyone as smart and obedient as Youuran. She would always be reminded of her, and the two of them got along very well.

When she heard that Lin Family's family situation wasn't that good, Faang Xinsu was a little worried that Youuran would be able to take that kind of suffering when she went back. However, when she saw the peculiar expression that usually flowed in her indifferent eyes, Faang Xinsu also understood her desire to return home. So he had to let the string pick up a few big things and give them to her.

On that day, when they were only two people, Faang Xinsu suddenly asked, "I heard that you were the one who sold yourself. If it was your parents who sold you, would you hate them?"

Youuran was a little surprised that Faang Xinsu would ask such a question, but seeing Faang Xinsu's black and white eyes staring straight at her, Youuran sighed. If it really was a matter of life and death, then there was nothing he could do about it. If it were only for money, I might not forgive them. "

Faang Xinsu then asked, "Why do you think a person has to raise their child from a young age?"

Youuran replied, "But that son of his is not in a good family. Is it really impossible to raise more children?"

Faang Xinsu shook her head. "Although there are a lot of children in that family, they are all powerful and rich."

These words seemed to have something to do with the secret of the Wealthy Class. Youuran intuitively felt that those words had something to do with Faang Xinsu entering the palace. After a moment of contemplation, she frowned and said, "Since it's not about money, there must be something going on between us. The more powerful one was, the more filthy things they would have to deal with. Even the slightest carelessness could lead to their life being at stake. Sometimes, it wasn't necessarily an misfortune for Hou to be too far away. "As I say, whatever the truth, wherever it is, it's the right thing to do."

"You're right." Faang Xinsu mumbled to herself as she sat there deep in thought.

Although they had only known each other for a little more than two months, Faang Xinsu could already tell that Youuran loved to read books. As a result, he arranged most of the books he had read about the county, travel notes, history books, and other things for her. He also sent some of the specialties from the south over and packed a large box. Youuran was about to refuse, but Faang Xinsu pointed out that most of the books were books, so Youuranfang accepted them. These books were the best way to understand the world, and she was reluctant to refuse.

Since Faang Xinsu's birthday was in September, there was nothing she could do about it. She decided to weave a brick bed screen for Lady Fang to give her as a birthday present.

Shen Ying and Shen Xiang had also sent their maidservants to deliver some jewelry and other items. Third Young Master and Fourth Young Master of the outer courtyard had also sent some people to deliver some of the four treasures of the study as souvenirs. Even Shen Lian had sent her maidservants to bring a pair of scarlet gold bracelets and some gold and silver pigeons, saying that she wanted to keep them for herself.

Only Eldest Young Master Shen Cang did not make any sound, so Youuran did not take it to heart.

Apart from the masters, the other sisters all had gifts as well, whether it was a handkerchief or a hairpin, they all had a full bag.

Since she was going to be expelled, Faang Xinsu didn't ask her to be on guard duty anymore. That night, Redbud, who shared a room with her, went to Faang Xinsu's room to stand guard. After sending off the little sisters that came to visit, Youuran locked the door and started to count her belongings.

Although it had been quite some time, Youuran was still trembling with fear at the thought of adapting to the ancient times. She had so many things to do every day and had yet to properly count the things she had saved up.

The original owner had been a servant for many years in the Shen Mansion, and only in the first two to three years did he not manage to save anything. After arriving at Mrs. Shen's side, they started with a monthly fee of five hundred silver coins, which then increased to one tael of silver. However, every month was just a small part of Youuran's property, with the majority being the rewards given by their masters. The time she saved Young Master Han Family, Mrs. Shen had said that she did not give anything valuable, but at that time, Qingliu had also obtained two pieces of gold, each worth ten taels of silver, and a full bag of golden melon seeds.

Youuran took out the key and opened a small box containing camphor wood. Inside the box were dozens of large and small boxes. The biggest was a dressing box with two layers inside. On the top layer, there were several gold bracelets with gems embedded in them, as well as some gold rings. On the bottom layer, there was a pair of small phoenix hairpins with red gems embedded in them. These pieces of jewelry that were extremely precious were all given to her by Mrs. Shen and a lady on her birthday in recent years.

In one of them was a brocade case carved with peony patterns, and inside was a set of jewelry inlaid with ruby. It was the most precious jewellery. The jewelry includes a pair of brocades, a pair of hairpins, a pair of bracelets, a pair of earrings and a pair of rings. It was embedded with rubies the size of lotus seeds. The gems were pure and transparent, and one could tell that they were of extraordinary value. It was her fifteenth birthday last year. As a maidservant, she naturally didn't need to go through puberty, so Mrs. Shen gave her this set of jewelry. It was just that she couldn't bear to wear it, so she put it there to hide.

Most of the other boxes were made of all kinds of jewelry, such as butterflies with gold inlay, pearls with blue inlaid pearls, silver hairpins with beads, jade pendants with flowers, earrings from all kinds of blue coral, bracelets with gold inlay jade, bracelets with silver silk entwined with gold and jade. Youuran was very eye-opener when she first arrived. Who said that the ancient era wasn't developed? Look at the craftsmanship of this Gold-grade Silk. It's all handmade. If it were in the modern era, Youuran wouldn't be able to pay the labour fees alone.

There was a box full of golden melon seeds and golden kudzu seeds, and a bag full of broken pieces of silver and copper coins. Most of the silver taels she had obtained were exchanged for banknotes, about two hundred taels. Including the banknotes Mrs. Shen and the young lady had given her today, she had almost five hundred taels of banknotes. She put the banknotes in the pocket of her dress. Because of the good quality of the gold, the original owner was not willing to exchange it for gold notes. Instead, he had saved all of it. Normally, he would only spend some copper and silver coins in the mansion, he basically didn't touch the gold, if it was silver coins it would also be worth seven or eight hundred taels.

Next, Qingliu looked at the few boxes containing clothes and fabrics. There was makeup, brocade, silk hat, brocade and all sorts of expensive fabrics. There were also some fur jackets and big furry clothes, which were not much worse than the clothes on TV dramas that he had seen in his previous life. Just the clothes and clothes alone would cost six or seven hundred taels of silver.

There were also a few other miscellaneous objects that were spread out and laid out on the brick bed. Before Qingliu had transmigrated to this world, the original owner had always been a second class servant girl. Usually, she would give her a lot of rewards, but compared to the head servant girl, she was still incomparable. After becoming a Big Servant, other than the rewards from the Shen Family Master, every new year, when Youuran helps the First Madam to bring them here, the rewards from the other wives would be very generous. After all, a noble family like the Shen Family would mostly have large families travelling to and fro. Amongst them was no lack of people from the Duke Palaces or the princesses palaces, so it was natural that these people would be very generous with their money. He roughly estimated that Youuran had only spent two years to earn one or two thousand silver after she had transmigrated. No wonder Qing Wen, who was kicked out of Dream of the Red Chamber, could save up to a few hundred gold coins.
