Chapter 429 Temporary Change
Looking up at Chu Liangrao with a calm expression, Ding Xiang couldn't help but feel fear in her heart. As someone close to Chu Liangrao, she couldn't see that Chu Liangrao was really angry at this time. To be honest, he couldn't open his mouth no matter what.

With red eyes, Ding Xiang bowed her head and backed out.

Mother Du hurriedly persuaded: "Princess, I can't blame Ding Xiang for this matter."

"Mom, the matter has already happened, so why hide it, it's better to say it, and let more people come up with ideas."

Even if she didn't say this, Mother Du was planning to say it, she bowed and said, "Speaking of it, it's because of Mr. Zhu..."

Sure enough... If it weren't for Zhu Xiucai, no one would be able to influence Lilac.

Looking up at Mother Du, Chu Liangrao said, "What did Mr. Zhu say?"

"Mr. said that he has taken good care of Ding Xiang. Instead of bothering the princess, it is better to support himself. Now that he has a fortune, it is not impossible to give Ding Xiang a decent dowry. That's why he came up with this idea." Mother carefully looked at Chu Liangrao's face, no matter what, Zhu Xiucai's behavior was really a bit smug, if it wasn't for the princess, how could he have the status he is today.

Chu Liangrao was not angry, but asked, "Which one are you looking at?"

"It's a family named Zhu, named Zhu Yong, and they say they also work in the store." Mother Du said.

When he heard that it was Zhu Yong, Chu Liangrao couldn't help sneering in his heart, this Zhu Xiucai really knew how to do things, and he thought that he had grown up, but in the end he was still a sour scholar with short-sightedness.In the past year, I have given him a lot of favors, and he feels that he has the right to be the master.

Suppressing the displeasure in his heart, Chu Liangrao asked, "What does Lilac think?"

"Ding Xiang listened to her father." Mother Du said.

Chu Liangrao couldn't help but clenched his hands a little bit, and said, "Since she has made up her mind, let her be."

Mother Du was stunned when she heard the words, she looked at Chu Liangrao and asked, "Princess, don't you want to persuade Ding Xiang? How can this marriage be compared to that of Mo Qing? Mr. Zhu can't figure it out, but Ding Xiang does. Why don't you let mother and Ding Xiang persuade Mr. Zhu?"

Shaking his head, Chu Liangrao said: "Ding Xiang will be old enough next year, let her go out of the house then, it's a pity for Mo Qing."

"That child is really good..." Mama Du followed with a sigh of regret.

Chu Liangrao stopped talking about this matter, and only said: "Pick two more smart maids, and promote second-class maids, and they will work with Zhen'er and Zhu'er on weekdays, and let Ding Lan take care of me. "

This kind of decisiveness was so merciless, Mother Du's heart shuddered, she didn't say much in Chu Liangrao's anger.

Mother Du thought that Chu Liangrao would be fine in two days, but she didn't know that she had really made up her mind.

Chu Liangrao couldn't help feeling reluctant, Ding Xiang, a maid who knew how to read and write, was well-bred, and usually had a bit of courage, but unexpectedly she was overwhelmed by the word filial piety.

As for Mr. Zhu, since he is ill, he doesn't need to worry about things in the store.

Huo Tainan had recommended her someone who knew how to manage accounts before, and she felt that Huo Tainan was superfluous, but now that she thought about it, he really knew everything, so he would keep it for herself.

Thinking about it, Chu Liangrao said again: "Mr. Zhu has worked hard this year, and it's not easy, so I'll give him his share." Mother Du couldn't help being slightly surprised, with a bad premonition in her heart, but she heard Chu Liang Rao said, "The Lord recommended a reliable one before, and when the time comes, I will hand over the affairs of the store. When the business is good, I will sell it out."

"Princess..." Mother Du turned pale with shock, and persuaded, "The business is good now. Wouldn't it be a pity to close the shop?"

"Mother, don't worry, I didn't deal with it like this because I was angry. I had planned it a long time ago."

I'm afraid that this year's capital will not be stable. Instead of guarding the huge store, it's better to abandon the immediate interests and seek long-term peace.

Mother Du didn't believe it at all, she just thought that Chu Liangrao was pissed off by Zhu Xiucai, she found Ding Xiang when she came out of the room and said, "You have time to persuade your father, and see how angry the Princess is. Is it? The princess said that he wants to sell the store."

Ding Xiang was startled, and said: "How could it be, the princess has spent so much thought in the store..."

"Hey, don't even think about it, how much thought the princess has spent on you, it is your father, the livelihood after coming to the capital is not all the idea of ​​the princess, if it is not for the princess, how can you have the life you are now? "Mother Du was a little bit angrily, and said, "Your father is good. Life is better, and he turns his head and refuses to recognize anyone. It doesn't hurt people's heart, but the county horse is not here."

Lowering her face, Ding Xiang was also ashamed.

Mother Du was able to speak up, and she said again: "The princess also said that this rule is fixed, and no matter what, you will have to wait until you are old enough next year before letting you out of the house. You broke the rules again and again because of you, what would the servant girls below think if they saw this?"

Hearing this, Ding Xiang burst into tears. She pulled Mama Du's sleeve and said, "Mom, I really don't have any ambiguity towards the princess. I really want to serve the princess for the rest of my life. However, slaves also have the orders of their parents." Difficulty."

Mother Du had pity for Ding Xiang, but she changed her face when she heard this sentence. She said, "You don't have to worry about the things in the princess's house in the future." leave.

Ding Xiang covered her face and began to cry, choking with sobs.

Hearing the movement, Zhen'er ran over first, saw Ding Xiang crying like this, and thought of Du's mother's expression just now, she wanted to persuade but didn't know how to persuade, in the end she just handed over the handkerchief and went back to work.

On the contrary, Zhu Er said a few soft words, but Ding Xiang didn't seem to listen, Zhu Er sighed, fetched water to wipe Ding Xiang's face, and asked: "Sister, do you feel wronged?"

After wiping her face, Ding Xiang also stopped crying. She shook her head and said nothing.

"Mr. Zhu is my sister's biological father. My sister dared not disobey what he said, but my sister never thought about it. The princess took such care of my sister, even if it's a kindness that can't be overstated." Zhu'er said, " This time, it was my sister who did it unkindly."

Unexpectedly, Zhu'er, who has always been simple-minded, would think so, Ding Xiang shed tears again, and said: "I will remember the kindness of the princess, and I have to repay it in the next life."

Hearing this, Zhu'er's complexion changed, she stood up and shook her head slightly.

After Zhu'er left, only the sound of Ding Xiang sobbing in a low voice was left in the room again, and she thought of her father's explanation: "The Zhu family is a big family, and I don't know how much better it is than a small official who you trust. Instead of being the poor wife, Wouldn't it be better to be a wife of a rich family and go out with a different prestige?"
