Chapter 80 Carefree

　　After Ranmo left, Shu Huan poured all the gold out of the purse onto the table. She didn't have to count to see that there were a total of four ingots. It was probably because Ranmo was careful and deliberately asked the silver to be exchanged like that. It saved her some trouble. She only locked one gold ingot in her chest where she keep all her money. She played with the other three in her hand.

　　Now that she had calmed down, she carefully thought about things. In fact, there were previous examples of selling those flowers. She could only blame herself for not having thought of it and let this idea be first taken by Gu Xiran. After she had figured it out, she annoyingly discovered that no matter whether she had thought of it or not, she couldn't earn this money now!

　　Gu Xiran is the legitimate son of Gu household. Old madam and master weren't at the resort. To touch or not to touch these flowers and plants were all to his wishes. Let alone, that he pulled them out to sell them, even if he had pulled them out and destroyed them, the servants would only talk behind his back, saying that he wasted things. However, he wasted his Gu family's things. Could others have a say in that?

　　Her ident.i.ty wasn't the same as Gu Xiran. If she did that, probably all kinds of vile words would come out of those servants. They would say that she loved money like her life and that she plundered all ground and didn't even let go of a plant and a flower. Those were already very gentle discussions. Maybe, when it spread to the end, it would become that she even carried a plant and a flower to her maiden home. This crime was too big!

　　Shu Huan sighed. Since ancient times, ident.i.ties had been difficult to surpa.s.s! When she seriously recalled in her memories, in fact, there were many ways to make money. However, there was no way she could do it. It was better for her to work hard and use her insignificant skill to make some small amount of money. She only wished to be stable and that she could do it for a long time.

　　While she was in deep thoughts, Gu Xiran had returned. When he raised the curtain and entered, he saw that she was staring at the three ingots on the table. He couldn't help but laugh, "Did you become rich?"

　　"Right, right!" Shu Huan's anger hasn't completely disappeared yet. When she saw him, she couldn't help but get angry again. She put those three ingots inside the purse and threw it at him, "Congratulations, you got rich! Fifteen golden liang. It's worth a year of your monthly allowance!"

　　When Gu Xiran returned, he already encountered Ranmo. Hence, he wasn't surprised when he heard her say this. He took over the purse, took a peek inside and laughed, "Ranmo is a capable one, but as he gets older, it's not convenient for him to go in and out of the inner residence. I want to take him over from little fourth.”

• When manservants get old, they weren’t allowed anymore to go freely inside the residence where the women of the household lived.

　　When Shu Huan heard this, she even forgot her temper. She shook her head and said, "He is little fourth close study companion ever since they were young. Will little fourth be willing to part with him?"
