Chapter 1259
Looking at Meng Wenhao's resentment and accusation expression.
Xiao Lingyue's conscience was a little painful.
She coughed and said seriously: "Anyway, a lot of things have happened in the capital in recent days, and it is uneasy. You have been in Tianzhuo for these days, so you can avoid the storm."
Qingluo asked, "Miss, has the murderer who killed Mr. Shen been found?"
"I found it, it's Aunt Hua." Xiao Lingyue did not hide it. "She has been arrested, and His Majesty personally sentenced her to death!"
"Lingchi?!" Meng Wenhao was shocked.
"Aunt Hua? How could it be her?!" Qingluo was also shocked.
"Not only her, but also Shen Yuting and Madam Li were also sentenced to Lingchi's punishment."
There was a hint of indifference in Xiao Lingyue's eyes.
She said lightly: "You don't need to ask the details. As long as you know, everything that happened to the Shen family was done by the three of them. Shen Zhijiang was dismissed by His Majesty, and the Shen family has been expelled from Beijing and will not come back in the future."
Qingluo was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Meng Wenhao was a little confused: "Who is Shen Zhijiang?"
"It's the lady's father, but I've already cut off my ties with the lady."
Qingluo said in a complicated mood: "I didn't expect that it would become like this in just a few days."
When Meng Wenhao heard this, he couldn't ask any more questions.
Xiao Lingyue didn't want to talk about the Shen family, so she changed the topic and said: "I am currently living in Prince Yi's Mansion for the time being. Because of some reasons, it is not convenient to leave for a short time. Qingluo will naturally follow me. If Mr. Meng and Xiao Mutou don't mind, stay there for the time being, right?"
"Is this suitable?" Meng Wenhao was a little surprised, "After all, it's the royal palace, I am a native of Dongqi."
Xiao Lingyue smiled and said, "I have told King Yi that you were implicated by me when you were thrown into the Heavenly Prison. It is inconvenient to go back to where you originally lived. I will stay in Prince Yi's Mansion for a few days. After the princess' mansion next door is repaired, you can move over with the small wood."
After a pause, she smiled and said, "You probably haven't forgotten yet. I asked you to consider doing the housekeeper's business before?"
Meng Wenhao nodded in a complicated way: "I remember."
“How are you thinking about it?”
"Miss Shen, I know you want to help me, but" Meng Wenhao showed gratitude on his face, halfway through his words.
Xiao Lingyue shook her head and interrupted: "I am not kind to help you, but I am just mutually beneficial."
Meng Wenhao: "Ah?"
"You are doing things with Xiaomu, which is inconvenient at all times. You need a monthly payment to support yourself and save money for your trip home."
Xiao Lingyue said, "And I just need someone who can trust and manage the affairs. I don't have that much energy to help me manage the mansion. So I want to be a housekeeper. You can bring Xiao Mutou to live in the princess's mansion and help me deal with chores. I will give you monthly money. Isn't this the best of both worlds and mutual benefit?"
When Xiao Lingyue wanted to convince someone, the reasons she gave were often hard to refuse.
Meng Wenhao opened his mouth and found that he was speechless.
Finally, he smiled bitterly: "Miss Shen, it's such a pity that you don't go to business!"
It’s not just a matter of eloquence, but the key is to be able to see through people’s hearts.
After all, Meng Wenhao is a big man, with his own pride and bottom line, and is not willing to accept the kindness given by others. He would rather work harder and earn it with his own efforts.
This can be seen from the hard work he worked with Xiaomu and looking for a job everywhere.
He wanted to support himself, rather than begging others to give alms with shame.
Xiao Lingyue felt respect for such a person, so she did not mention borrowing money to help from beginning to end. She only said that her mansion lacked a housekeeper and asked him if he would do it.
