Thinking about it, it is ironic that she, the legitimate daughter of an official, came to visit her maternal family. She came quietly, not like she was a guest at all, but like she came to live in a shabby house under the fence.
Now that they are about to leave, the formation is quite large. If there is anything the same, it is probably those servants!
When I came, I was greeted by a bunch of servants, but when I left, there were still a bunch of servants who wanted to see me off. It was really ridiculous.
Jiusi looked at her expression and knew that she was thinking about the past things again, but he didn't say anything more. If he couldn't think about some things, it would be useless for others to persuade him.
The carriage drove away from the Jia family little by little, which also showed that from this moment on, the relationship between the Lin family and the Jia family was gradually becoming distant and weakening...
"Sister, I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first."
Daiyu didn't want to talk to anyone because she was in a bad mood. As soon as she returned to the Lin Mansion, she spoke to Jiusi and returned to her yard with a group of maids and women.
Fortunately, there were people cleaning the yard all the time, so she didn't need to think about making any more arrangements. After going back to freshen up, she lay down and rested.
She was willful and didn't want to talk, but Jiu Si couldn't be willful and could only follow the previous operation and continue to be busy.
Fortunately, Nanny Lin and Housekeeper Lin are here, and her housekeeper has a set of procedures, so even if she is busy, she will not be too busy, as long as everything is done according to the procedures.
She summoned Nanny Lin, told her what she needed to pay more attention to, and then asked her to go down and make arrangements.
Nanny Lin didn't say much. She just responded and took people to deal with those matters. Jiusi looked at her and was speechless.
Alas, in the past, although Nanny Lin was very strict about rules, she would still ask her one more question, or give her some suggestions, but since Butler Lin came, she has even omitted that sentence, which is really frustrating.
After arranging the matters in the inner courtyard, she called the housekeeper who was in charge of the Lin Mansion in the capital and asked him to arrange the affairs in the outer courtyard. Only then did she have time to talk to Butler Lin.
She motioned for Butler Lin to sit down, and then asked aloud: "Uncle Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing?"
Is my father in good health there? Is there anything wrong with him?"
Although she had kept an eye in Yangzhou and news came from time to time, she couldn't help but ask one more time just to be on the safe side.
When Butler Lin heard her address, he immediately broke out into a big smile and replied with a smile: "Miss Lao, I'm worried. My old slave's body is fine, but there is something wrong, but that's nothing."
It is caused by getting older, and things that are inevitable cannot be forced.
The master's health was not in good condition before. Many doctors were invited to look at him, but they couldn't tell anything. They just kept asking him to take medicine. Later, the Holy Spirit sent someone to do it, and he got better.
The master knew that the girl wanted to ask, so he asked the old slave to tell the two girls that everything is fine with him. The two girls can just wait for him in the capital with peace of mind. As long as you two are fine, he will take care of himself.
"
When Jiusi heard that the emperor had sent someone, he knew what was going on.
Thinking about it, it wasn't that the emperor couldn't protect him before, nor that he couldn't deal with the people in Jiangnan. It was just that at that time, he thought Lin Ruhai was on the side of the Supreme Emperor, so he didn't care about Lin Ruhai's life or death.
It was not until she came to Beijing to meet the emperor and the emperor knew that Lin Ruhai was from his side that he took action to save Lin Ruhai.
It was also at this time that she realized that the reason why the Lin family was swallowed up by the Jia family was not just as simple as what she saw on the surface, but more of the struggle in the court.
The Jia family swallowed up the Lin family and got millions of Lin family's wealth and many things from the Lin family, but the final winner was the emperor who stole the Jia family.
Just like small fish eating small fish, small fish eating shrimps, it's just a rule of survival.
Her thoughts only lasted for a moment, but she still had that calm look on her face, and said with a smile: "In this case, I will feel at ease.
Uncle Lin has worked hard all the way, so he should go back and rest early. If something happens, we will talk about it in detail tomorrow.
As for the trivial matters in the outer courtyard, let them do their work, you just have to watch them and don't make mistakes."
Hearing this, Butler Lin responded with a smile: "The girl is so considerate of the old slave, so the old slave won't hold on to me. Thank you very much for the kindness of the girl.
This trip has been really hard, and I really should take a good rest, otherwise it will be my fault if I miss my masters' business."
Then, after chatting with her for a few more words, he got up and left the hall.
If it had been anyone else, Jiu Si's words would have meant seizing power.
But Butler Lin doesn't think so. First, he is older and usually leaves it to the juniors to handle things, so he doesn't think there is anything wrong with this arrangement.
Secondly, he understood the temperament and conduct of this older girl, and knew that she really felt that she had worked hard when she said that, and did not expect others to be so subtle in their words, so he felt more warm-hearted.
Last but not least, the most important point is that the housekeeper in this house is his son, so it doesn't matter to him even if he is deprived of power. He is still his own family anyway, so there is nothing to care about.
After making these arrangements, Jiusi went to check the accounts of the mansion again, and after dealing with a few greedy stewards, he went back to the house to rest a little tiredly.
Early on the next morning, as soon as the two sisters had finished their breakfast, someone came to the palace again, saying that the queen wanted to see them.
The two sisters looked at each other and had no choice but to go back to their rooms and dress up again before hurriedly entering the palace.
After entering the palace, the two of them realized that the person who wanted to see them was not the queen, but the emperor who used the queen's name.
After all, these two sisters are women, and they are also candidates to be selected. It would not be appropriate for the emperor to summon them all the time, so he used the name of the master of the harem, so that even if others knew about it, no one would say anything.
.
The emperor summoned Jiusi because he had something to say, and the queen also knew it. Therefore, as soon as she saw the emperor coming, she took Daiyu directly into the inner room to talk.
As he walked, he did not forget to hold her in his arms and talk: "Miss Lin Er is a lovely person. I like you as soon as I see you. I heard that you have read a lot of books, and I just got one."
It’s an only copy, why don’t you come with me to taste it and taste it.”
Daiyu originally wanted to stay with her sister, but the queen didn't give her that chance at all. She pulled her very tightly, and she couldn't push her away disrespectfully, so she had to follow her in.
When the two of them were far away, the emperor finally spoke: "I heard that your shops made a lot of money from me, what's the matter?
The Lin family doesn’t have enough money for you to spend it?”
When Jiusi heard his question, she understood why he had called her here. He kept cursing secretly in his heart, but with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty is joking, my servant's shops are only so big, even if they can
How much can I earn? It’s just some makeup money.”
If you want my hard-earned money, there is no way. If you ask, you won't get it. If you have the ability, go and grab it!
After hearing this, the emperor continued with a calm face: "It costs hundreds of thousands taels of powder, so your powder is quite expensive.
I don’t know which cosmetics store is it, but you like it so much that you want to buy it after spending hundreds of thousands?"
