Chapter 136

"Yes! Yes!" A young eunuch stood up from the pile of clothes and fabrics, and it was Hong He.

He was sweating profusely, as if looking for something.

"What are you doing?" Lan Xin asked.

"I'm looking for a pair of scissors. Someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs said that I want to improve my grade, so I will move in the afternoon, and then asked me to tailor clothes for the empress dowager...Jiang Guiren, this is the slave you recommended to the empress dowager, right?" ?" Hong He was very clever, halfway through speaking, he turned to ask Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu said with a smile: "The Empress Dowager asked about the clothes I was wearing, and I mentioned it casually. Since the Empress Dowager asked you to cut the clothes, you should spend more time."

"We're here today to congratulate you on your promotion. You don't even have a cup of tea, do you?" Zhu Zi patted Hong He on the shoulder.

Hong He scratched his head: "Please forgive me, my slave didn't boil water here today, so there is nothing. Even my slave's mouth is parched."

"Your shelf is getting bigger!" Lan Xin put the basket she brought on the table with a snap, and lifted the cloth covering, it turned out to be a basket of juicy pears.

"Eat it, this is specially for you." Jiang Yu picked up a pear and handed it to Honghe.

Hong He didn't dare to take it, but Lan Xin grabbed the pear and stuffed it into his hand: "Now you're being polite again? You can eat it if your mother tells you to eat it!"

Only then did Honghe take the pear, he found a small knife, peeled off the skin, put it on the handkerchief that Lan Xin had prepared, brought it to Jiang Yu first, and then peeled two more for Lan Xin and Zhuzi to eat. The last one is for yourself.

Seeing that he was sensible, Jiang Yu knew that he would be able to serve the masters well in the harem without further exhortation, so she was relieved.

However, when she came to the Needle Industry Bureau today, she had another thing to do, that is - to get back all the bets she won, although she didn't know if the eunuch would admit it or not.

After eating the pears, Jiang Yu told Hong He about the matter, and Hong He volunteered to accompany Lan Xin and Zhuzi there.

"Niang Niang, you can rest here, it's a mess outside, we'll come as we go." Zhu Zi said.

"Then go back early, if the eunuch refuses to admit it, then it's fine, don't argue with them."

I don't know if Mu Qingyuan will send someone to exchange the silver first, the principal of 500 taels, that is 5000 taels!

Add your own 5000 taels, that's 6 taels.

No matter how rich Concubine Qiong's capital is, can she get out the 6 taels of silver?
After a while, Hong and the others came back from the outside, all of them sweating profusely, grabbed the pears in the basket, and gnawed on them to quench their thirst without peeling the skins.

"What's wrong? Something happened?" Jiang Yu asked in wonder.

"Something has happened!" Zhu Zi bit the pear and swallowed it reluctantly.

Zhuzi then told Jiang Yu what had happened.

It turned out that the three of them still followed the place where Lan Xin went to bet at that time, and found the hut, but the door of the hut was already surrounded by water.

At first they thought it was the bettor who came to find fault, but after a closer look, it was the eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who came with a few guards, and after a while, an eunuch was brought out from inside. The eunuch sitting and collecting money records.

After asking people around, I found out that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is here to arrest people today.

The needle industry bureau gathered a crowd to gamble, open a bank and bet, and all relevant people were arrested, and all gambling proceeds were confiscated.

"Mother, we are one step late, this receipt is useless!" Lan Xin handed the receipt to Jiang Yu with a sad face.
