Chapter 738: Compensate Five Hundred Taels (2)_1
She was just a servant, without the right to lock them out— it would be considered neglectful. Hong Xia bit her lip, took out the keys, and opened the door, inviting them inside.
Fang Hui humphed discontentedly and entered the room with her head held high and grandeur in her step.
Hong Xia turned around and poured two cups of tea, "Mrs. Feng, Old Feng, please enjoy your tea. I’ll go to the workshop and ask the lady and the third miss to come back."
Feng Shouxing quickly stepped forward, smiling awkwardly, "Then we’ll trouble you to make a trip to the workshop. We’ll just wait here."
Hong Xia curtseyed, "Then please wait a moment, both of you!"
As she left, she didn’t actually head for the workshop but instead called over two young boys at the alley’s entrance, asking them to run the errand, "...I can’t go out to meet people looking like this now."
The two youngsters saw the palm print on her face, realizing she had been slapped, and quickly ran to the workshop to call someone.
Fang Hui took a sip of tea, scalded her mouth, and then threw it on the table, looking around the room.
In the past, after their mother died, they were just several lonely siblings. They built a new residence, but the rooms were empty. Now, not only were there a complete set of furnishings, but the room also boasted porcelain decorations and hung paintings. Especially the large clock on the wall opposite the divan, gleaming with gold and inlaid with gems. Those wood carvings weren’t worth much, but the clock was very valuable. Previously, the young boy wanted to touch it, but that wretched girl Pei Qian glared and wouldn’t allow it. The jade sculptures on the shelves probably were also worth quite a bit.
