Yutai Bi

Chapter 21
If it wasn't for Xu's and Baicao's loyalty, she, a person who died of illness and transferred her soul to Cen Sanniang, would not know that she still has this property.For an orphan girl without money, it is difficult for her to move forward in this world.Now that she has these, she finally has the confidence to plan for the future.

After three years of peaceful filial piety, Cen Sanniang had a premonition that her life would undergo tremendous changes.She took out 1 taels of silver bills, and another 100 taels, and locked the box.Xu put it back in the box as it was.

"Mom took the time to exchange the 100 taels of silver notes. The government didn't know much about it, but it didn't work. The money couldn't be saved. The new small house in the south of the city fell on my mother's head. Sanfang didn't know that I had paid it back a long time ago. Mother's deed let you set up a female household. It is safest to hide the 1 taels of silver notes in that house. Although Uncle Liu and Uncle Chen have Zhuangzi and Tian in their hands, we are more prepared and have more ways out. "

Because of the belongings hidden in the box, there have never been fewer people in the yard in the past three years.Cen Sanniang took Baicao out, and Mrs. Xu would never leave the yard.

Seeing her arrangement like this, Xu was a little flustered: "Third lady, is something going to happen?"

Cen Sanniang's eyes were shining brightly under the light, showing her cute little buck teeth, and she smiled softly: "Mom, I'm fine right now. But I still like the three caves of the cunning rabbit..."

Xu was angry and laughed, and poked her forehead: "I know that nonsense will widen my mother's heart."

Cen Sanniang rubbed her forehead, pretending to be wronged: "After being a filial piety, my cousin is willing to make bright new clothes for me. I'm afraid she wants to get engaged to me as soon as possible, and she will send me off as soon as I get married. The cousin is an elder, so we don't care about marriage. It's up to me to decide. If I have to marry myself, the money will be envied if it appears on the dowry. What if I can't reconcile at that time?
Holding the banknote, Mrs. Xu's eyes were sharp: "Don't worry, third lady, the third old lady will definitely not marry you indiscriminately just because of her reputation. ... If it doesn't work, mother will ask your grandfather to do it for you." host."

"Didn't they take all the dowry back? They didn't leave me a single thing, and no one came to visit me in the past three years, so they don't care if I marry well or not." Cen Sanniang curled her lips and looked curiously. Looking at Xu Shi, "Mom never told me about the situation of my grandfather's house."

Mrs. Xu hesitated to speak, touched Cen Sanniang's head, and sighed long: "Tomorrow I have to get up early, Sanniang should go to bed early. Mama will tell you in detail."

Cen Sanniang was not in a hurry, she hummed, and went to bed with the light on.

Mrs. Xu kept watch at night and slept on a bamboo couch by the window.

One night, Cen Sanniang vaguely heard Xu's tall figure tossing and turning and the bamboo crumbling under the weight.She thought in a daze, the nanny has an unpredictable appearance, could there be something wrong with the grandparents' family?
In a blink of an eye, it was the Dragon Boat Festival.

On this day, a large viewing shed was erected on the open space on the river beach at the wharf outside the south of the city.Sitting there were the governor, the officials in the city, as well as the rich gentry and local celebrities who had been invited by the assassin, like the third householder of the Cen family.

Next to the high platform are the colorful sheds of the big families in the city.The yamen servants of the state capital and the homes of the rich families will surround the colorful sheds with ten steps and one post, separating the people in the city and avoid disturbing the female relatives.

Outside the color shed, if you look around, there are crowds of people where you can stand.Where no one can stand, the trees on the shore are also covered with half-grown children with strong skills, so dark that you can't see the end at a glance.
