Chapter 6 The True Financial Status of the Gu Mansion
Chapter 6 The True Financial Status of the Gu Mansion
In the darkroom of about 100 square meters, there was nothing but a pile of broken stones in the corner and a wooden box next to it.
"This..." Gu Hua was dumbfounded. "In the original owner's memory, wasn't their family one of the most wealthy merchants in Jiangzhou City?"
Gu Hua looked into the dark room. The last hope was the only wooden box in the middle.
"Maybe I am short-sighted." Gu Hua muttered to himself, "If that box contained a box of banknotes or rare treasures, the Gu family would still be able to become one of the wealthy merchants in Jiangzhou City."
Gu Hua opened the lid of the box and saw neatly arranged small wooden boxes filled with women's jewelry. Her head ached again.
The memories that the original owner had blocked out and did not want to face were forcibly broken by everything Gu Hua saw.
After the dizziness, Gu Hua didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Isn't it just that the family business is in decline? As for blocking this memory, I don't even dare to think about it."
“Besides, it’s not your fault. Your parents passed away suddenly. You were still young at the time, facing the huge compensation for the deceased and the calculations against your family in the business world.
Not only did the family members not help, they also took the opportunity to put pressure on us and tried to seize the Gu Mansion's assets. It's already good that you can use the little money left in your family to hold out for three years while surrounded by wolves."
As Gu Hua continued to talk, the pain in her head slowly disappeared, and her soul, which seemed to be trapped, also relaxed. She could feel the soul of the original owner remaining in her body, and this time it was completely relieved and dissipated.
Looking at the ornaments placed in the small boxes in the big box, Gu Hua guessed that these should be the ornaments worn by the original owner's parents when they were alive, so what she saw just now triggered this memory.
Gu Hua walked over and looked at the inconspicuous stones piled in the corner. She felt that as a businessman, the original owner's father would not put a pile of worthless stones here for no reason.
A sudden inspiration came to his mind, "Are these not jade stones?!"
Gu Hua, who couldn't find the answer for a moment, waved his hand and collected all the stones into the space.
When you have the chance to find a jade craftsman and ask him to cut it open, you will know whether it is a worthless stone that can only be used to build walls, or a priceless jadeite.
After all this trouble, Gu Hua came out of the study when it was almost dawn.
early morning.
The maids on duty, Xia He and Dong Mei, pushed the door open and heard the slight breathing sound coming from the inner room. They paused and turned to look at each other.
Dongmei: "When did the master come back last night?"
Xia He shook her head to indicate that she didn't know either.
Xia He stretched her head to take a look inside and found that her master had no intention of waking up. She gave a look to the quiet Dongmei, and the two of them retreated.
"You two are standing here chatting instead of helping the master get up and wash. I'll go in and report to the master that you are being lazy here."
Qiu Ju came over and started yelling without asking any questions. She glanced at the two of them with disdain, thinking that since she was sent out to do the job, the other three would have no hope either.
They were all maids serving Gu Hua. Why should she be kicked out of the house?
Gu Hua, who had just fallen asleep in the room, heard a noise outside. He frowned slightly and said in an unhappy tone, "Who is making noise outside? If you don't want to work in the yard, get out."
When Gu Hua's roar was heard, Qiu Ju's cheeks, which were already covered with thick rouge, became even redder, because she was the only one who spoke loudly in the yard just now.
"Master...I..."
Seeing that Qiu Ju wanted to speak up to defend herself, Xia He and Dong Mei hurriedly pulled her out to stop her from making any more noise and disturbing Gu Hua's sleep. Qiu Ju, who was dragged out by the two, glared at them angrily, "Why are you stopping me?
I want to explain to the master that you are the ones who are lazy and don't come in to serve him, and I am the one who is most suitable to serve him."
Xia He and Dong Mei were speechless. They had never met anyone with such an lack of self-awareness.
Or she is the most suitable person to serve the master, just based on her words, "I", she calls herself to the master.
"I knew that you two had no good intentions just like that little bitch Chunlan. You were jealous of my master's favor and said bad things behind my back, which instigated the master to transfer me to work outside the house."
Qiu Ju was unaware that the two people were looking at her as if she were crazy, and she mistakenly thought that she had predicted what they were thinking.
She roared angrily, "You bitches, when the master sees my beauty and takes me into his room, I will sell you all to a brothel to serve ugly and dirty old men..."
"Shut up." Followed by a loud shout.
When they turned around, they saw Gu Hua with a dark face. He didn't know when he had been standing there, and Chunlan, who also had a bad face, followed behind him.
"Since you think a brothel is a good place for women," Gu Hua raised the corners of his lips and smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes, "then how about I send you there to have fun?"
"Plop." Qiuju's legs softened and she knelt on the ground, "I..."
"No, no, no, it's me... I beg the master to have mercy on me and forgive me this time!!"
However, Gu Hua did not have the chastity to indulge her servants who often acted in front of her, especially when the servants were disloyal. It was even more impossible for her to indulge them.
"Call Mother Wang." Gu Hua: "Because she nursed my master."
"I will not punish Qiu Ju for not understanding the rules and for repeatedly transgressing the rules. I will let her take her daughter back."
When Mother Wang, who was living a life of luxury, drinking tea and teaching a group of little girls etiquette, was called over by the maid in Gu Hua's yard, she thought that he had finally come to his senses and wanted to take his good-looking daughter into the house as a concubine.
To servants like them, I am half a master. Moreover, the Gu family is a merchant family. If my daughter is lucky enough to give birth to the eldest son, it is not impossible for her to be promoted to the position of the wife.
Mother Wang walked into the main courtyard where Gu Hua lived with a big smile on her face. She saw Qiu Ju kneeling on the ground and ran into the courtyard with her big fat butt twisted.
"Ouch, what's going on?"
Gu Hua looked at the original wet nurse who walked in without greeting and went to help her daughter. She finally understood where Qiu Ju's unruly behavior came from.
Chunlan, Xiahe and Dongmei looked at this Madam Wang who relied on her status as their master's wet nurse to act arrogantly in the mansion, and now she didn't even take her master seriously. They found her extremely hateful.
"Since the mother loves her daughter so much, why does she let her work as a servant? Wouldn't it be better to keep her at home as a young lady?"
"You silly girl, I knew you didn't like my Qiuju." Mother Wang helped her daughter up and reached out to hit Dongmei, who was outspoken and criticized their behavior.
Chunlan and Xiahe rushed forward to stop them, but were pushed away by the fat Mother Wang. Dongmei reached out to pull them back, but Mother Wang took the opportunity to slap her hard in the face.
"Snapped!"
"Heh!" Gu Hua strode to the three girls, raised his hand to grab the thick wrist of Wang Mama who was still trying to hit them, and said solemnly, "It seems that Wang Mama really doesn't take this head of the family seriously."
