Gu Fei smiled: “Your Highness is right. If you come to eat again next time, I will make something lighter.”
Xiao Yu glanced at her and said: “Next time, will you cook for me yourself?”
Gu Fei nodded: “Of course, Your Highness has helped me so much, you should come to eat every day.”
With you as a big Buddha, I don’t have to worry about being bullied.
After Xiao Yu finished his meal, he left with Shitou and Zhuzi with satisfaction.
Gu Fei quickly slipped back to her room and took out the silver bills from the space and counted them.
One bill of one thousand taels, two bills of five hundred taels, and three bills of two hundred taels, adding up to a total of two thousand six hundred taels of silver, but she didn’t believe that these were all the wealth of the housekeeper of the Prince Jin Mansion.
Gu Fei held the silver bills in her hand and laughed alone in the room.
She was rich, she was finally rich!
A person who had been poor for two lifetimes suddenly felt the feeling of getting rich.
After being happy, Gu Fei thought about it. She had to buy some jade, the kind of uncarved jade. She really wanted to know what the space would look like after absorbing enough spiritual energy.
Thinking of this, she was worried again. The space was eating jade. If it went on like this, no matter how much money she earned, it would not be enough!
She went out and sent Xiao Luzi to buy some dishes. A lot of them were broken today.
In the evening, Gu Fei was guarding the counter and was drowsy. Suddenly, she saw the Middleman she had met before, leading a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl in.
Gu Fei stood up: “Uncle Zhang, why are you here today–”
The Middleman smiled and said: “I’m looking for Old Huang. He must be inside. I wonder if Shopkeeper Gu can send someone to call him out for me.”
As the Middleman spoke, he sat down with the girl.
Gu Fei looked at the girl curiously, nodded, and shouted: “Lian’er, go call Mr. Huang out, tell him someone is looking for him–”
The girl lowered her head and twisted her fingers anxiously.
Lian’er ran to the backyard, and soon, Old Huang came out.
As soon as he came out, he walked to the Middleman and sat down. The Middleman said: “Old Huang, do you think this girl is okay?”
Old Huang’s eyes fell on the girl, and he nodded after a while: “Not bad, how much silver?”
The Middleman made a gesture: “10 taels.”
“Here, this is the indenture.”
Old Huang looked at the indenture, and thought for a while: “Okay, 10 taels.”
“Go to the government office to stamp the indenture tomorrow, and then send it to me.”
As he spoke, Old Huang took out a ten tael of silvers and gave the Middleman a small piece of silver.
The Middleman took the silver and put it in his sleeve, then said with a smile: “Then I wish you to have a big fat boy soon.”
Gu Fei pricked up her ears at the counter.
A big fat boy?
Oh my, it’s not what she was thinking, right?
The Middleman stood up and told the girl: “Serve Mr. Huang well. Mr. Huang has a big family and a big business. As long as you can give him a big fat boy, you will have a good life in the future.”
The girl blushed with shame and said ‘hmm’ in a low voice.
Gu Fei couldn’t hold back her curiosity, so she walked out from the counter and looked at Old Man Huang with a smile: “Mr. Huang, what are you doing…”
Old Man Huang chuckled: “Since you opened this inn, I feel like I have a new life.”
“So, I’m going to buy a girl as a concubine. If she can give birth to a child, it would be good to avoid the family line being cut off.”
“Otherwise, when I see my parents a hundred years later, they will point at my nose and scold me.”
The girl was so embarrassed that she almost buried her head in her chest.
