Granny Xin introduced herself and said that her husband was doing business with Boss Lu. Her husband's surname was Shangguan. Now that the old man was running business nearby, she brought her daughter to Beijing first.
I have nothing to do, so I just want to hang out at an old friend's house.
Mrs. Lu looked at the outfits of several people while guessing their worth.
Grandma Xin said calmly, "It's getting late, and we've been traveling for a long time, so we're a little hungry. I wonder if I can ask Sister-in-law of the Lu family to prepare a table of noodles for us to eat."
Mrs. Lu was immediately annoyed because she wanted to come here to eat and drink for free, and she brought so many people with her.
Grandma Xin immediately took out a small silver ingot from her arms, which was about seven or eight taels, and handed it to Grandma Lu, "Thank you."
As soon as she saw the money, Mrs. Lu immediately smiled. It seemed that she was a rich person.
She immediately made plans in her mind, smiled and asked them to rest, and she immediately went to prepare.
She carried the oil barrels and wine barrels at home and went out, telling Lu Cunyou to entertain the guests well.
Lu Cunyou had already jumped down, but he was very suspicious in his heart. Mrs. Lu grabbed his arm and pulled him to the door, muttering: "This woman has some money, you have to treat her well and don't let her go."
, if you trick her well, we can defraud her of all the money later."
Lu Cunyou was angry in his heart, but he was used to being bullied by her, so he couldn't refute, he just kept a cold face.
Mrs. Lu hummed: "You don't have to pretend to be noble. This woman only gets eight taels of silver when she makes a move. Then she has at least three or four hundred taels on her, otherwise she wouldn't be so generous. If you do it well and we get the silver, we can pay for it in the future."
Have you ever lived in a world where humans are no longer human and ghosts are no longer ghosts?"
She put herself and Lu Cunyou on a united front, but she forgot who just forced Lu Cunyou to jump over the wall.
Lu Cunyou didn't say anything, looking submissive.
Mrs. Lu knew that he had always been like this, so she didn't care about him. She locked the door and went out to find her mistress.
Mrs. Lu found her concubine and told him what had happened. The concubine was immediately moved and her eyes flashed fiercely.
Three or four hundred taels of silver is a large amount of money.
Besides, the five pretty girls led by the mother-in-law are all good things. It would be a good deal to use them for yourself, give them to someone else for some errand, or exchange them for money.
He immediately made up his mind to ask Mrs. Lu to go home and stabilize them while he waited for him to contact someone.
Of course Mrs. Lu and her mistress didn't know that every move they made was under Shen Mingzhu's control. They thought some fat sheep had come to the house and would be slaughtered by them soon.
Mrs. Lu moved quickly and bought a roast chicken, a salted duck, a rib, two pig's trotters, and several seasonal vegetables. Then she sold a barrel of wine and a barrel of oil and had them delivered to her home.
, I went back and bought a few kinds of fruits, including a big round green watermelon and several kilograms of juicy peaches, and they were all sent home.
When Mrs. Lu returned home and saw nothing strange, she knew that Lu Cunyou didn't dare to say anything and had to listen to herself.
She was so happy that she chatted with Granny Xin, and then while preparing the banquet, she said, "Don't be dissatisfied, ma'am, what we make ourselves is better and cheaper than the ones in the restaurant."
Grandma Xin worked with her while trying to trick Grandma Lu.
