Chapter 96 Reward

The brothel owner accepted the money and promised repeatedly, her eyes narrowed with joy.

I didn't expect that this little girl looked poor, but she was actually rich. She didn't even ask about Chao Yun's worth, but directly paid the money for her redemption. When the time comes, she will definitely make a fortune from her for several hundred taels!

Seeing that Caiwei had even paid the money for her redemption, Chaoyun felt more relieved. She bowed to Caiwei and sobbed, "In this way, I can wait for the young lady to come and save my life."

Zhou Laowu saw that Caiwei didn't even ask Chaoyun's worth, but directly paid the money for her redemption, and couldn't help but speak anxiously: "Weier, this..."

"Uncle Zhou."

Caiwei interrupted him with a voice and whispered, "Uncle Zhou, don't worry, I have my own arrangements for Zhao Yun's affairs, and it has nothing to do with Bafu Restaurant."

Caiwei's attitude was firm. Seeing this, Zhou Laowu knew that he couldn't change her decision. Besides, Wei'er was not a fool, so he simply stopped talking and returned to the carriage in silence.

An Mansion

Early in the morning, the An Mansion was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and there was a constant stream of guests coming to celebrate the birthday. From the family of the county magistrate to the son of the richest man in Bianzhou, almost all of them were people of status and position.

A load of decent birthday gifts were carried in from the front gate, blinding everyone's eyes. The four brothers An Qiyun stood on both sides of the gate, bowing to welcome the guests who came to celebrate the birthday.

When Caiwei and others entered the An Mansion, Zhou Laowu was obviously nervous. It was the first time he saw such a big scene and the first time he participated in it.

"Weier, do we need to kowtow to the old lady? Oh, we forgot to prepare gifts!"

Caiwei smiled and said: "Uncle Zhou, don't be nervous. We are just invited to grill skewers. Even if we want to celebrate the birthday and kowtow, we don't have the qualifications. "

Hearing Caiwei say this, Zhou Laowu's uneasy mood relaxed a little. Several servants guarding the second gate heard that they came to grill skewers, so they hurriedly helped to carry the grill, charcoal, etc., and sent them to the garden in the backyard.

The birthday banquet was scheduled for noon, and it was too early to grill skewers now. When she arrived at the back garden, Caiwei had nothing to do, so she strolled around the garden.

The An Mansion was a large house with five entrances. The house was surrounded by white walls, with a wide front and back, three hanging flower gatehouses, and four corridors. The paths in the courtyard were connected, decorated with rocks, and the whole house was magnificent and elegant!

Caiwei looked at it and secretly admired it in her heart. It was indeed a wealthy family. The luxury of the house was beyond her small courtyard!

As she was looking at it, a maid wearing a blue-green silk cotton bodice and a round face came over, bowed, and said: "Miss Mu, our old lady wants to see you."

Caiwei was quite surprised that Old Lady An wanted to see her. You must know that the most distinguished person in this town is none other than Old Lady An.

Old Madam An has four sons. The eldest master, An Qixiang, is the most famous doctor in the town. He opened the largest clinic in the town, Baoan Hall. In addition, he also opened two herbal medicine shops in the town. An Qixiang has superb medical skills and noble medical ethics. The herbal medicine shops are also fair and reasonable, so he is quite respected in the town.

The second master, An Qiyun, is the county magistrate of Yushu County. He receives royal salary and eats public meals. Everyone in the town has to respectfully call him "Lord An". He is a person who cannot be underestimated.

;   The third master, An Qishan, gave up literature and went into business in his early years. After years of hard work, he is now rich and wealthy. Not only does he have Xinglong Inn, Zuixianju Restaurant, Anji Silk Shop, Baishi Silver Shop and other industries in the town, but he also has businesses in Yushu County and even Bianzhou Prefecture.

The fourth son, An Qilu, is even better than his father. Although he does business with his third brother, his business is bigger and farther. He has opened shops all over the country and even in the capital. It is said that his business is so prosperous that it is not an exaggeration to describe it as making a fortune every day!

Because her son is doing well, Mrs. An has always been kind and generous, so she has a high prestige in the town and can be regarded as a few big figures!

Hearing that the old lady wanted to see her, Caiwei greeted Zhou Shu and Jiujin, and followed the round-faced maid.

They walked west along the side corner door, walked through a north-south alley, and then passed through an east-west hall, and entered Mrs. An's courtyard from the west gate.

Walking along the back corridor, a little girl in front of the door had already reported it, and quickly raised the curtain.

As soon as she entered the back room, she saw a carved agarwood screen with the Four Seasons Ruyi. A burst of laughter came from it. It was obvious that there were many people in the old lady's room, and they were getting along happily.

Caiwei took a quick look and saw that the room was full of pearls and jade, flowers and branches were gorgeous, and the fragrance was fragrant. Old Lady An was leaning on the Luohan bed, surrounded by a group of young girls in colorful clothes.

There were several yellow pear wood chairs on both sides of the Luohan bed, and many embroidered cushions were placed on the ground in order, on which sat a group of noble ladies wearing gold and silver.

"Caiwei greets the old lady. I wish the old lady good fortune as vast as the East Sea, longevity as great as the Southern Mountains, longevity as long as the pine and crane, and a bright future."

Caiwei didn't look at it for long. She walked through the crowd and came to the old lady, and saluted to the old lady very respectfully.

"You are the girl from the Mu family that the second brother mentioned, right? Good girl, get up quickly." Mrs. An said kindly, then looked at the others and said, "This girl is the one who runs the nursing home that I told you about. What do you think of her?"

Everyone smiled and said, "She is indeed a good girl. This girl is not only kind-hearted, but also good-looking!"

Old Mrs. An smiled and said: "Isn't it? It's difficult for her to have such a compassionate heart at such a young age. I often want to do some good deeds to accumulate virtue and blessings for my descendants, but I always don't know what to do, so I have to go to the temple. I donated some incense and money, and saw Hanako giving away a few dollars. I didn't expect that this little girl at such a young age would have such a big heart and quietly set up a nursing home. It's a pity that she only has so little. All the money is used to support these people, and I don’t even have decent clothes. "

After saying that, he turned to a big maid next to him and said, "Ruyi, take the key to the storehouse later to find two pieces of bright satin, and bring them back to Mu Yatou to make clothes for her to wear."

Caiwei hurriedly leaned down to thank her. The ladies on the ground were either Mrs. An's younger daughters-in-law or merchant women who came to curry favor with her. Seeing that the old lady appreciated Caiwei, they all stepped forward to join in the fun.

You give me a purse, I give you a pair of earrings, she gives you a ring, and there is a young lady wearing a rose-red gold braided braid, who generously gives you a precious red gold and ruby ​​hairpin.

Not long after, Caiwei had more than a dozen pieces of jewelry on her body.

Mrs. An said happily: "Look, this girl immediately looks much more handsome with these things. Young girls should dress up properly. It is taboo to be too plain."
