Nanny Wan and her people searched through all the drawers and cabinets in Huang Yue's room.
After a while, a small millstone that looked like a toy was found from a pile of debris.Huang Yue was shocked when she saw this thing being turned out.
"What is this?" Lu Lingjun saw it at a glance.
It was obvious that the small millstone had been used to grind many things, and there was a lot of powder stuck in the gap. Huang Yue flew in front of Lu Lingyun and grabbed the small millstone tightly, tears streaming down her face before she spoke, "Madam, this is a little toy my father made for me!"
"Why are you so nervous? I just want to take a look." Lu Lingjun looked at her with a smile.
"Madam, this is a relic my father left me!" Huang Yue hugged the small millstone tightly and cried loudly, "When I was young, my parents worked day and night to grind beans and make tofu. I wanted to help them with the work, and my father felt sorry for me because I was young, so he made this small millstone for me."
"When they used the big millstone to grind the beans, I sat on the side and used this small millstone to grind along. Now that my parents are gone, they left this thing to me. Madam, you can ask Xiaoyue for anything, even her life, but I really can't give you this millstone."
Huang Yue cried so touchingly, and her story was so told that everyone in the room stopped and looked at Huang Yue with sympathy and pity.
After all, we are all people from the lower class. Even those who followed Lu Lingjun out would feel heartbroken when seeing this.
Everyone is born by parents, and no matter how poor the family is, you cannot ask your child to become a slave.
This is why Lu Lingjun had no choice but to ask her for the thing. Her parents were dead, and they left her a worthless item as a memory. Even though she was the mistress of the house, she couldn't force her to take it in public.
If you force it, it shows that you are the master and you don't treat your servants as human beings at all.
Lu Lingjun narrowed his eyes and said, "Huang Yue, you are very filial."
"Mrs. Xie understands. Mrs. Xie will support me." Huang Yue hurriedly walked down the stairs to express her gratitude.
"But I think your little toy is so cute, and the young master just needs some toys, so I want to spend ten taels of silver to buy it to please him and let him play with it for fun. I will return it to you in a few days."
Just now, it was Huang Yue who carried her and told her that she, as the master, could not ask for it directly. Now Lu Lingjun asked to buy it, and it was ten taels of silver to buy it for the young master Cheng Bingan to play with for a few days. This was definitely a huge favor to her.
If ordinary servants and maids heard this, let alone playing with the young master for a few days, even giving him away for free would be a huge honor for them.
The young master is interested in a worthless thing like yours, so why would he charge you for it?
But when Huang Yue heard Lu Lingjun say this, her brows twisted into a "川" shape, and her fair face once again looked aggrieved and victimized, "Madam, this is the only relic my parents left me. If it were anything else, it would be for the young master to play with. Just take it. Don't mention the money. Even one more word would be an insult to Xiao Yue."
"But Xiaoyue wants to keep this small millstone, and it's not clean. If it gets dirty on the young master, Xiaoyue will be a real sinner!"
Huang Yue was crying again, but this time, the people around her did not sympathize with her. Instead, they thought she was ignorant and ungrateful.
