Finally, Gu Xietian's face brightened up. He looked at Leng Xiangyu and said, "Well, although it's not entirely your fault, it's also your fault for not managing the family properly. In the future, you should arrange a few maids for me. It's not right for a rich lady to live alone!"
"Yes, master, I will arrange it later." Leng Xiangyu bowed and promised.
Gu Xijiu coldly looked at the drama between Gu Tianqing and Leng Xiangyu. Her lips curled into a mocking smile. How could General Gu believe such a lame reason? Was he blind or was his heart blind?! Had all his years of official career gone to waste?
It was not that he did not understand, but he was just trying to find a way out in front of so many people. He really did not care about his daughter, Gu Xijiu, and that was why he allowed them to bully her!
However, Gu Xijiu also understood that she could not bring down the mother and daughter in a short period of time. It was meaningless to expose them.
Moreover, she did not have any spiritual power or internal power now. She could not leave the Gu Mansion to start her own business. She still needed to stay here for a few years to get some herbs. She should stop now...
She slightly smiled and said, "It seems that I have misunderstood you. Will you send some maids for me in the future?"
"Of course! Don't worry, Xijiu. I will send four maids for you later. "Leng Xiangyu quietly felt relieved.
Gu Xijiu looked around the courtyard and felt a little embarrassed, "But, my courtyard is so small. I am afraid that there will not be enough space for so many people …"
Leng Xiangyu secretly gritted her teeth. This girl seemed to want to change to a bigger courtyard...
But at this time, she had to be generous, "Xijiu, don't worry. I arranged for you to live here because it is quieter and better for you to recuperate. I did not expect you to suffer. It is my fault. Later, I will personally order people to prepare a big courtyard for you to live in..."
Gu Xijiu slightly smiled, "Xijiu, thank you so much. But I am still a little embarrassed... "
"What's so difficult about it? Tell me all of them. "Leng Xiangyu's gentle and virtuous mask almost fell off.
Gu Xijiu sighed, "Of course, it is good for you to give me so many servants, but I only have half a string of money. I am afraid that I cannot afford them …"
Leng Xiangyu, "..."
Her face began to burn again.
Among the aristocrats of the Feixing Kingdom, the young ladies of the royal families all had a fixed monthly allowance. Even a young lady from a small state would have a monthly allowance of five taels. As for Gu Xietian, he was the Great General and the Minister of War. All of his daughters were given twenty taels of silver as a monthly allowance. Gu Tianqing was a genius in martial arts and was loved by her father, so her monthly allowance was thirty taels of silver.
In this era, a dipper was equivalent to half a tael of silver. A legitimate daughter's monthly allowance was only half a dipper … If this were to spread out, it would be a joke!
