Chapter 669: Once you send someone away, they won’t come back (23)
When thinking about Liang Huaixin's "romantic affairs", the first thought that flashed through Xiangsi's mind was - this is good, this young master probably won't bother me anymore.
As long as she can hold on for a few more years and save enough money to redeem herself, she will be able to leave the Liang Mansion completely.
Xiangsi never intended to stay in Yue Ningcheng for long, she always wanted to return to Anyang.
Although she has no family there, at least she can visit her parents' graves to pay homage during the Qingming Festival.
Instead of what we do now, where we can only find a secluded corner and burn some paper money.
She was still young at that time, and although she knew that her grandfather was probably from a prominent family, she knew very little about the past. Moreover, several years have passed now, and she no longer remembers many things.
Naturally, I don’t know where to look for my family members who may still be alive.
Moreover, having seen too many of the unknown shady dealings behind "wealthy families" like the Liang family over the years, Xiangsi has never thought of returning to her maternal grandparents' home.
However, her life as a servant in the past few years was not completely without results. At least now she had a skill to make a living, so making a living should not be a problem.
As her thoughts raced, Xiangsi's right hand involuntarily reached for the purse at her waist.
The purse contained candies that had not been completely eaten a few days ago.
She picked up one of them at random, gently peeled off the oil paper wrapping it, and then put the candy with an enticing sweet fragrance into her mouth.
As the candy slowly melts on the tip of your tongue, a rich sweet taste instantly fills your entire mouth.
At this moment, the question that has been bothering Xiangsi for a while emerged in her mind: Who sent the candy?
What puzzled her even more was how the other party knew that she liked this kind of candy!
This candy is not ordinary! Yue Ning City is in the north. Although there are candies for sale here, most of them are slightly bitter. This is because the impurities are not removed.
The candy in Xiangsi's hand is pure and has no impurities. It is the rice dumpling candy from his hometown in the south.
The candy is shaped like a small rice dumpling, crystal clear, and filled with pine nuts, with floral scent added according to personal preference.
Not to mention that Yue Ningcheng couldn't buy it at all. Even if it was available, it would be very expensive and definitely not something that an ordinary person could get. And the red bean branch drawn on the note left by that person made Xiangsi feel as if she had seen it before.
Just as Xiangsi was lost in thought, a servant came hurriedly and said that the lady wanted to see him.
Xiangsi was shocked. Could it be that Mrs. Liang was thinking of something to "teach" her again?
I came to the front hall with an uneasy heart, but saw Mrs. Liang sitting there with an uneasy look on her face, completely losing her usual superior demeanor.
"Xiangsi, you know about the young master's affairs, right?" Mrs. Liang asked helplessly.
Xiang Si nodded, then shook her head, and then thought that she didn't seem to have explained it clearly, so she explained: "I heard a little about the young master and the mistress, and I thought that the family should have a young mistress soon. I don't know anything else."
Mrs. Liang took a deep breath and recounted what had just happened.
Hearing that Liang Huaixin had "deducted" the money because he had no money to eat, Xiangsi felt more or less gloating - he deserved to be beaten up!
"Xiangsi! Now that the old lady is ill, the master has no time to take care of him. I want you to bring some silver to redeem him!" Madam Liang sighed, "Just now the master said that he would not let me go out and asked me to go and take care of the old lady, so you have to go.
Huai Xin is always willing to listen to you, you can definitely bring him back."
Madam Liang put a purse on the table and said, "I heard that Wangchunlou has a great background. Huaixin was originally short of 15 taels of silver. I have prepared some extra for you. You can take it with you."
If Xiangsi were asked to choose, she would certainly not want to go, but Madam Liang was talking to her nicely because she needed her now. But if she really refused, that would be another matter.
"Yes, ma'am!" Xiangsi took the purse, went out, got on the carriage prepared by the Liang Mansion, and went to Wangchun Tower to redeem the person.
Little did she know that just after she left the house, Xiao Chenliang got the news that she was coming over, and then his mood became visibly happier.
He even specifically asked the chef at Wangchunlou to prepare some river fish.
When Xiang Si arrived at Wang Chun Lou, the owner did not immediately take the purse she handed over, but said kindly: "Thank you for the trouble, young lady. I will take you to the private room to wait for a while."
After saying that, without waiting for Xiangsi to refuse, he took her to the quiet room where Xiao Chenliang was.
Because Xiao Chenliang was behind a curtain in the room, Xiangsi did not immediately notice that there was someone in the room when she entered the room.
When Xiao Chenliang pushed the wheelchair and pushed the curtain out, Xiangsi was startled and turned around to run out of the room.
"Hongdou, long time no see. You've grown a lot taller and become a big girl!" Xiao Chenliang's words successfully made Xiangsi stop what she was doing.
