"There is a little bit of a good thing. By the way, how are your recent homework? Are you going to test it again?"
"There are more than twenty days left! Every time Mom sees me, she either asks me about my homework or asks me about equestrian piano. Mom doesn't know how to care about me." Gao Xina pouted.
"I'm caring about it. Every time I ask you if you lack clothes and jewelry, which mothers can do this?" The third concubine raised her eyebrows.
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!" Gao Xina didn't want to talk nonsense to the third concubine anymore, and tentatively talked about the topic, "Mom, I came from the street of the French Consulate just now, why are there many signs of the Military Supervisor on the street?"
"Is that true?" The third concubine was a little surprised. The military supervisory office is so efficient now, but she smiled. The most prosperous street in the entire Nanjing city is their Gao family.
"Yes, mom, do you want to go and have a look?" Gao Xina continued.
"I will go when I have time. It's getting late. Please inform the kitchen to prepare lunch." The third concubine said.
"I'm not hungry yet, mom, why do you say that the consulate street has to be the sign of the military command?" Gao Xina continued to point out this topic.
"What are the kids doing so many questions? Take your class well." The third concubine replied.
"They are no longer kids, many of my classmates are engaged~~~"
"In the eyes of Mama, you will always be a child!"
The third concubine's words aroused Gao Xina's affection and leaned on the third concubine, "Mmma is so nice!"
"What's wrong with you today? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" The third concubine asked when she felt something was wrong with Gao Xina.
"It's nothing. Today, 7 Shunnu accidentally broke a few things in a shop in the French consulate. The shop owner was particularly furious and asked for compensation. I thought, if my father knew each other, he would say something to Shunnu!" Gao Xina said tentatively.
"Xi Na, you have to know that your father is in the rising period of his career, and the reputation of the people is very important. If you break the goods, just pay for them. Don't bother your father like this!"
"But~~~" Gao Xina tried hard to say something.
"It's nothing, your father comes back, tell him that he won't care!" The third concubine was a little unwilling. Her second daughter liked to be a good man. She did it all over the place, which made her father unhappy and it was not worth the loss.
"Okay, that's just my mom, those brands~~~ If it's true, I'm really happy for my father!" Gao Xina saw that she said nothing directly, so she indirectly took the third concubine's words.
The third concubine rolled her eyes, "You are a daughter, why are you doing men's affairs?"
"My daughter just wants to be happy for her father, and she must know it. If the Gao family becomes richer and richer, then like Zhu Yumo, they will definitely not be worthy of their daughter!" Gao Xina said seriously.
The third concubine thought about it and it made sense. So she looked around and confirmed that there was no servant in front of her, and then whispered, "The street of the French Consulate is indeed under your jurisdiction now!"
"Okay!" Gao Xina almost screamed after changing her image as a lady.
"Look at what you look like!" The third concubine said with a smile.
"But in this way, the Zhu family's marriage is indeed not ideal. When your father is in a good mood one day, I will mention it to him. After all, they have always spoken about the Zhu family's marriage. Although we did not object, we did not agree to leave clearly, it should not be difficult!"
"Mom, you are the best!" Gao Xina hugged the third concubine's neck. It's better to be a real mother.
The third concubine patted Gao Xina's back, her eyes full of pampering, but Gao Xina was calculating in her heart. She went to that nameless cosmetics store tomorrow and dared to blackmail her, so she made her unable to survive in this street!
Chen Yang, who was missed by Gao Xina, suddenly sneezes.
Gao Xi, who has not left yet, has:...
It's not cold this time!
I feel like someone is talking about me!
Gao Xi curled her lips again, and she pretended to believe it.
Although they only met for less than an hour, the two chatted like confidants whom they had met too late, so Chen Yang made a suggestion: Let Gao Xi invest in her cosmetics store again.
It was not until this time that Gao Xi noticed that the store name was "Wu Ming".
Gao Xi shook his head again, "I have no money."
Chen Yang shrugged indifferently, "I'll lend it to you!"
"You lend me money and then let me invest in shares. You give me dividends. What kind of magical operation is this!" Gao Xi refused again.
"There are still people who don't want the money they send to their mouths. Today, I made a lot of money because of you!" Chen Yang said.
"You are so confident that they can take the money obediently? Based on my understanding of Gao Xina, she has many tricks, and maybe she will come to her tomorrow." Gao Xi said again.
Unexpectedly, Gao Xi really hit it again, but this is a story later.
"Don't worry, I have a way to let them take the initiative to bring the money. If they want to rely on it, I will make them beg me to collect it." Chen Yang's eyes were shiny.
"I really like your confidence!" Gao Xi raised his lips again, and she seemed to see her own shadow on Chen Yang.
The two of them looked at each other and laughed.
Compared to Gao Xina's calmness, Luo Shunu is still quite sad.
After she and Gao Xina separated, she kept trying to use some excuses to get money.
The situation in Luo Shunu's family is much more complicated than that in the Gao family. Luo Shunu is the daughter of the big wife, which should be more popular, but her mother has a low status in the Luo family. Old Lady Luo's mother's family has another cousin and become a concubine. Although she is called a concubine on the surface, Luo Shunu's father is so spoiled that she doesn't take the big wife and the two daughters of the big wife seriously at all.
Especially in recent years, the second concubine's family has produced a third lady who is a successful family. She married the commander-in-chief of the Southwest Army. The second concubine's status has even crushed the big house. If it weren't for the early years that the big house gave birth to Luo Lin, she would have been swept out long ago.
Now the food, clothing and consumption of the Luo family's big house is many times worse than that of the second concubine. The second concubine spent 500 taels to make clothes last season, but the big house can't even take out 50 taels!
The little goldfish she wants to compensate this time is roughly 5,000 taels. Even if the half of Gao Xina's compensation is removed, the remaining half will take her life unless~~~
If she had no choice, she would never use this method, otherwise she would be killed by Luo Lin!
After hesitating, the sky gradually became dark. Luo Shunu had no choice but to walk into the Luo family mansion with a tough bullet.
"Why are you back so late today? Don't you know that the girl's house is going to come back early? Is your school's homework too easy recently? If it's easy, come back early to help Mrs. Meng do some work. All day long, you will know that you are full and not hungry, and you don't know how to help the family share the burden!" Luo Shunu's second concubine was scolded by her second concubine as soon as she entered the door. Luo Shunu's mother sat aside, blushing and pale. When the second concubine finished speaking, she hurriedly laughed, "Shunu's schoolwork has been quite heavy recently, and she has to practice equestrian after school, so it's too late to come back."
"I didn't ask you again, why are you anxious, sister?"
Although he called "sister", the second concubine didn't take the official wife of the Luo family seriously at all.
"Aren't I thinking about Shunu telling me, let me explain to you." Cao laughed.
"It's not that I said your sister. You're used to children too much and they don't have any rules at all. Look, where are there girls from every family? They come back when it gets dark?" The second concubine continued to scold.
"Yes, my sister is right. I will discipline myself carefully when I look back."
Luo Shunu sneered. Luo Qingzi, the daughter of the second concubine, often played with her friends all night. Is this a well-educated? What a ridiculous double standard!
"It's right to know. There is still food in the kitchen. Let's go and eat it. After eating, I washed the dishes. Today, Mrs. Meng felt uncomfortable, so I allowed her to rest early." said the second aunt.
Luo Shunu nodded. If the second concubine's children came back late, no matter how late, Mrs. Meng would bring the hot meal. However, if she and her sister came back late, she would only go to the kitchen to eat the cold leftovers. After eating, she had to clean it up by herself. If there were no leftovers, she would be hungry or find a way for herself. So Luo Shunu usually would not come back after dinner. Today she encountered a special situation. She really didn't want to go back to this house or enter this house.
At this time, the door rang again, and the second concubine frowned, and saw Luo Qingzi shaking in.
"Mom, I'm hungry, hurry up and ask Sister Meng to bake some snacks for me!" Before the people entered, the voice arrived first.
The second concubine frowned and suddenly stood up.
Luo Qingzi threw her two shoes aside and walked inside barefoot.
The second concubine walked towards her quickly.
"Mmma~~~"
"Look at what you've drunk! I've said so many times that girls shouldn't drink outside. If the parents of a big family see it, it will affect your kiss in the future!" Although the second concubine was scolding her, she didn't stop and hurried to get slippers for Luo Qingzi.
"I know, my good friend celebrates his birthday today, I won't drink it next time!" Luo Qingzi explained.
"You also said yesterday which classmate celebrated his birthday, and the day before yesterday, your teacher celebrated his birthday!" The second concubine accused.
Luo Qingzi:...
Mom, why do you remember so clearly?
Luo Qingzi smiled awkwardly, "Just~~~ I'll be together for my birthday!"
At this time, Mrs. Meng, who had already "slept", came down from the upstairs, "Miss, are you back?"
Luo Shunu's eyes shrank for a moment. Luo Qingzi ranked third in the family, and her normal title should be called "Miss Three."
This lady Meng was brought by the second concubine from her parents' home. She thought she was the oldest and existed in the entire Luo family like a housekeeper. All the servants followed her as the leader, so she said that she had fallen asleep, and the other servants did not come to serve her. She got up, and the others also got up.
But in this title, she kept calling the second lady and the third lady. Unless she met her, she reluctantly called "Second Miss". When she saw Luo Qingzi, she directly removed the ranking and called it "Miss", as if there was only Luo Qingzi, the only lady in the Luo family!
