Mrs. Song stared at Lin Jinrong, her lips opened little by little, the corners of her lips raised slightly, and she laughed very slowly. Lychee gave her a creepy smile, but she quickly stopped laughing and looked back at
Lu, who was too silent, raised his chin: "Let's go!"
Madam Lu glanced at Lin Jinrong hastily, then quickly lowered her head and followed Song Madam in small steps.
Lin Yuzhen looked at Tu and said softly: "Idiot!"
Mrs. Tu suddenly changed her color, grabbed her handkerchief angrily and tried to argue with Lin Yuzhen. Lin Yuzhen disdainfully waved the phoenix flower in her hand in front of her, turned around and left with disdain.
Mrs. Tu gritted her teeth with hatred and turned to ask Lin Jinrong: "Why don't you come and talk to me in advance? It's better to let me be prepared. Am I the one who is unreasonable?"
Lin Jinrong smiled calmly: "Third Aunt, I am not a god, I cannot predict the future." She concluded that when Lu Mian was not around, Tu's tears would be reduced by at least half.
Mrs. Tu was choked by her, but she had nothing to say.
Lin Yuzhen called Lin Jinrong outside: "Arong, what are you doing so slowly? Are you still waiting for others to pour dirty water on your head?"
Lin Jinrong smiled and gently kicked Fang Zhu, who was still kneeling on the ground: "Why don't you get up?"
Fangzhu clearly felt that Lin Jinrong's attitude towards her was completely different from that in the morning, but her mentality at the moment was completely different from earlier - she was a person who had been exposed in public, and she had no right to pretend anymore.
In this way, he stood up obediently, bowed his head, and followed Lin Jinrong out of Rongjing Residence anxiously.
Mrs. Tu and Aunt Hui stood there in a daze for a while, then supported each other and walked out. After taking only two steps, Mrs. Tu turned back and said, "Old lady, who should pay for this batch of clothing materials?"
Old Mrs. Lu was lying on the couch with her eyes half-closed, recuperating. When she heard this, she couldn't help but frowned. After a long pause, she said dullly: "Of course Mrs. Meng will pay."
Mrs. Meng's family is one of the richer among the Lu family. She has embezzled things from the storehouse and committed such a big crime. She must have spent a lot of money, and the family's wealth can also be spent. Tu's eyes
As soon as I woke up, I happily followed Aunt Hui to draw up a claim for compensation.
Old Mrs. Lu couldn't help but sigh softly. Aunt Sha had served her for decades and understood her thoughts best, so she said with a smile: "The third wife has been dragged down by her mother's family in recent years, so it's okay."
conscience."
Old Mrs. Lu said: "They are all ungrateful people. When others force her, she will force Erlang. She feels the suffering herself, so why doesn't she think about Erlang's suffering? That's all, the sewing room is not of great benefit. Lao Xu is an honest person.
Nothing big will happen to you." As he said this, he closed his eyes and asked, "What do you think of Second Grandma?"
Aunt Sha smiled cautiously.
Old Mrs. Lu said: "After all, I don't blame you."
Grandma Sha said: "She is so calm and composed, as if it has nothing to do with her. For such an older person, she is so quiet."
Mrs. Lu sighed: "Are you angry when you look at the second wife?"
Aunt Sha lowered her head and beat her legs: "You won't be too happy in your heart, right?"
Mrs. Lu said: "You must think that we are partial." But if we don't do this, what can we do?
…
Mrs. Song had just stepped into the door of her room, and her expression suddenly changed. She looked left and right, picked up a large vase by the door, and threw it to the ground.
Mrs. Lu jumped up in shock, clutching her handkerchief tightly and hiding aside, looking at her tremblingly, not daring to speak. Aunt Xiao rushed forward and hugged Ms. Song: "Good wife, my good wife
, let’s not be angry, it’s not worth it.”
Mrs. Lu then stepped forward to persuade her: "Mother-in-law, don't be angry. Mother Meng is quite sensible. Besides, she is only relying on the old man."
Mrs. Song lowered her voice and scolded: "What do you know! If she relied on her own ability, I would be fine with it, but she relies on your grandfather! Your grandfather is helping her! He is partial! He is warning us! You
Do you understand?"
Lu took a step back and whispered: "What should we do?"
Mrs. Song sneered and pointed at the pile of broken vases on the ground: "Go and ask them to sweep up this pile of scum and go to the warehouse to replace it with a new one. If you can't replace it, don't come back."
Lu said nervously: "Will grandpa be unhappy?"
Mrs. Song said: "What do you know! I have been in charge of the family for so many years, and today I was stepped on by her without making a sound. How can I have a place in the future? Do it! Even if you are an old man, you won't say anything. Even if you say it,
Whatever it is, I’ll bear it too!”
Mrs. Lu did not dare to speak anymore, so she called the girl Su Xin in and whispered a few instructions. Su Xin hurriedly swept up the fragments and put them into a box, and called two sharp-tongued women in: "Take it."
Let's go to the warehouse and get a new bottle. It must be replaced no matter what."
The two women didn't care what was inside, they just took the box and left.
Mrs. Lu sat with Mrs. Song for a while, but saw no sign of her mood improving, so she got up on the pretext of going to see the child.
Mrs. Song sat in silence for a long time, then waved to Aunt Xiao to come over and whispered a few words in Aunt Xiao's ear.
Aunt Xiao looked shocked and muttered: "Madam, isn't this too risky?"
Song sneered: "Risk? We have been forced to this point. How can we succeed without taking risks? What will happen in the future depends on this battle. What the old man thinks and what he will do must be seen!"
Voice: "Only heaven and earth know this matter. You know it and I know it. Can you remember it?"
Aunt Xiao nodded solemnly: "I will not let you down."
Song said: "There must be no mistakes." One light and one dark, let's see how Lin Jinrong takes the move, and let's see what step the old man wants to take.
Lin Yuzhen kept looking at Lin Jinrong up and down. Lin Jinrong looked calm and allowed Lin Yuzhen to look at her.
"Arong, you really surprised me." Lin Yuzhen finally couldn't help but said, "How did you learn about this?" Any coincidence is nothing more than words to coax a child. From what Mrs. Meng said,
Lin Jinrong said that all the words were lies and could only be believed with five points. However, no one dared to point it out, leaving only such thin layers without tearing them. But privately, she hated it
Lin Jinrong's behavior and temper, which he kept secret from others, had nothing to show for it. Putting Fangzhu around Lin Jinrong had no effect at all, and almost cost him his life.
Lin Jinrong looked up at her and smiled: "Didn't I talk to people in the warehouse a few days ago? Some of them seemed to be in the same group, but in fact they didn't all have their own ideas, so I said I wanted to change
When they needed to choose someone to take over Mrs. Meng's position, someone tried their best to sell me information. But at that time, I didn't know what they wanted to do. They were just being more careful. It was half luck and half precaution.
"
Lin Yuzhen didn't believe it. But she could no longer boss Lin Jinrong around as casually as before, scolding her at every turn, so she just lowered her eyes unhappily and thought to herself.
Lu Yun was unusually quiet. She held an embroidery bag and sat in front of the window to embroider butterflies. She used thin threads split into ten strands and extremely fine golden needles. She couldn't let her mind wander at all, but she broke several threads in succession.
Back. Jian'er secretly looked at Lu Yun, then carefully threaded another thin silk thread and handed it over. Lu Yun glared at her impatiently, while Jian'er lowered her eyes and silently held up the needle.
Lin Jinrong came over, took the needle from Jian'er's hand and handed it to Lu Yun, asking Jian'er to get down: "Ayun is in a bad mood?"
Lu Yun lowered his eyes: "No."
Lin Jinrong said: "You have said very little these days. Today, I thought you would help persuade my mother..." Usually, Lu Yun would always persuade her at the right time and help her speak in front of Mrs. Song and Mrs. Tu, but today,
Lu Yun actually didn't say a word, didn't even try to persuade Lin Yuzhen, and just allowed Lin Yuzhen and Tu to argue endlessly.
Lu Yun stared at the half butterfly wing on the embroidered fabric and said calmly: "I can't help it. What's more, my sister-in-law has already done an excellent job. I'm afraid of disrupting your plan."
A reasonable explanation. Lin Jinrong didn't say much anymore, but sat aside and watched her embroidery. Lu Yun's needle couldn't fall, and the needle tip poked back and forth on the cloth several times, but in the end he couldn't find it.
That suitable point. There was a very slight sound, and the silk thread broke again. She threw the embroidery fabric on the small table next to her irritably, and scolded Jian'er: "What kind of thread is this? It has been breaking constantly, ever since.
No matter which store I bought it from, I will refund it all!"
This silk thread came from Tao's grocery store, an authentic and high-quality Jiangnan silk thread. Jian'er secretly glanced at Lin Jinrong, said nothing, and just stepped forward to clean it up.
Lin Yuzhen shook her fan and said: "This silk thread is very thin after being split into ten strands. Why do you use so much strength? Is it possible that your third aunt's shop can still get defective products for you to use? If you don't want to embroider, don't do it.
Embroidery is a waste of thread."
Lin Jinrong stood up and said, "Aunt, I'm going back first. Something happened to Mrs. Meng, and it's impossible for several people to be implicated. There will definitely be chaos in the warehouse. I'll go take a look."
Lin Yuzhen narrowed her eyes and said, "Arong, who do you plan to replace Mrs. Meng?"
Lin Jinrong didn't tell her, he just said: "There are so many people here this time, we must add more people. It depends on what my grandfather and grandmother want first."
Lin Yuzhen gave her an idea: "I will recommend a few for you. They are all people who followed me in the past. They are very capable and loyal. You need to go and make up for them."
Lu Yun raised his eyes and looked at Lin Jinrong: "Mom, please don't embarrass my sister-in-law. She may have already made her own arrangements."
Lin Yuzhen said: "What arrangements can she make? How many people does she know in this family? How many can be used? Of course you have to listen to me."
Lin Jinrong suppressed the impatience in his heart and said: "Although I am in charge of the warehouse now, everything is just what he said. To be cautious, it is better to listen to my grandfather and grandmother first."
