Wang Xifeng didn't know whether the Xue family gave the money to her, or maybe it was given to her aunt to keep.
Seeing that the scene was a little stiff, she took over with a smile: "Oh! Who can't push it out after seeing the money? Old lady, even if our family is not short of money, why is Mr. Lin short of money? Since my uncle is thinking of ways to be filial.
You, please go ahead with your favor. If no one wants it, I will ask people to move it away." He just shouted, "Ping'er, hurry up, call your second master, and let's carry the money back. This is not a sit-in.
I made a fortune at home."
Everyone in the room laughed and the atmosphere relaxed.
Mrs. Shi pointed at Wang Xifeng and said with a smile: "It's really a broken house. Take it! Take it! Your cousins are here, you should take more care of them."
This means charging it into the public account.
Wang Xifeng felt relieved. The money collected from the previous year was almost spent during the New Year. The Lin family's two thousand taels of silver should be able to support them for a while.
Afterwards, everyone was chatting and laughing. Lin Yutong was responding to everyone's questions while observing Lin Daiyu with his peripheral vision. Seeing her and Jia Baoyu getting together again, muttering head to head, her brows furrowed.
It seems that the power of the original work is powerful. I said so many things about Jia Baoyu, but I forgot about it during this meeting.
She was also a little discouraged. Who else could bear the burden of someone else's failure in life?
Mrs. Wang will never agree with Bao Dai, so let's look at the final result. I'm afraid she can only be sad, maybe she can mature. Anyway, Lin Daiyu's body can't die easily now. Let her go. I advise.
Come here, but cruel reality is the best teacher. She will understand one day. As for her reputation, she doesn't care, she just wants to break away from the worldly rules. Then go ahead. Anyway, her reputation doesn't matter.
Okay, I don’t mind being burdened by this cheap girl.
Why should I be a disgusting villain?
Lin Yuyang glanced at Lin Daiyu, narrowed his eyes, and said nothing. In a room full of female relatives, he didn't speak easily, his eyes were lowered, and he rarely raised his eyes.
The dinner was very sumptuous. Lin Yutong didn't know what a Manchu-Han banquet looked like, but there were sixty-six dishes in total, which was equivalent to half a Man-Han banquet.
This is not the highest standard of the Jia family.
Both Lin Yutong and Lin Yuyang have suffered, and they don't care at all about the so-called greasy food. It's just that Lin Daiyu's appetite has been spoiled by Lin Yutong recently. She is usually given her usual taste, which is very light, even if it is meat.
It was made as meat-free as possible. When she saw these things, she really couldn't eat them.
I made rice with tea soup, took two bites, and was done.
Lin Yutong frowned again.
They ate and slept without saying a word. After a meal, it was already getting late.
"We just got off the boat today, and we didn't rest until we arrived. I won't keep you here anymore. You can go back to the yard and rest early." Shi arranged with a smile.
Lin Yutong agreed, and accompanied by Wang Xifeng, walked for a quarter of an hour before arriving at Jufang Courtyard.
The courtyard was smaller than expected, perhaps because each of the Lin family had separate courtyards. The two courtyards were crowded together by the girl and the old woman, making it seem cramped.
"This place is certainly not as spacious as the Lin family. I feel sorry for my sister." Wang Xifeng had seen Lin Daiyu's yard and knew that there was no way this place could compare with the Lin family.
"Our family has a small population and is no more prosperous than your family. It's already very good here. Please trouble my sister-in-law." Lin Yutong smiled politely.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a few words before sending Wang Xifeng out.
There are two cross-courtyards on each side of the courtyard, one for each of the sisters. Passing through the corridor in the middle of the courtyard is Lin Yuyang's courtyard. There is usually a door, but the maids in the inner courtyard are not allowed to go out of this door without permission.
On the other side of the door is Lin Yuyang's courtyard. It is used as an outer courtyard. Not only does it have a living room, but also a reception area and a study room. Going forward, there is another door. After exiting the door, there is a shot.
The distance is the back wall. There is a small door on the wall, and outside the door is an alley. The alley is a dead end, and no one usually passes by. After exiting the alley, there is a street. Turn a hundred meters further, and you will see the bustling Ningbo.
It's Wing Street.
It can be said that it is a quiet and extremely convenient place.
Lin Yutong looked around the yard and saw that everything was in order on his brother's side. Then he went to Lin Daiyu's yard.
"I'll ask the cook to bring you a bowl of vegetarian wontons later. You didn't have a few bites of dinner, right?" Lin Yutong asked with a smile.
"I'm suddenly not used to it." Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, feeling a little embarrassed.
Lin Yutong nodded. "After eating, take a rest early. It's been a tiring day."
"Sister, please rest early." Lin Daiyu stood up to see her off.
Lin Yutong stopped him, "You are weak and it's still cold at night, so don't go out." He then told Zhilan Fanghua, "Keep an eye on your master and report anything bad to him as soon as possible."
The two of them solemnly agreed, and then Lin Yutong returned to his yard.
"No one has lived in our courtyard before. It's called Jufang Courtyard. The Xue family lives in Lixiang Garden. The girl from the Shi family and Mr. Bao from the Jia family live in the old lady's blue gauze cupboard." Chun
The son reported in a low voice.
This has already started to find out the news.
Lin Yutong nodded with satisfaction.
Jufangyuan Jufangyuan, chrysanthemum is the flower of longevity, what the Lin family lacks most is longevity. This has a very good meaning.
As for the Xue family's Lixiang Garden, she really didn't want to. The book described it like this: Rong Gong's retreat in his later years was small and exquisite, with about ten rooms.
It is small and exquisite, and there are only about ten rooms. There is not enough space for my family to live in. Even the girls and women can't fit in it.
Lin Yutong secretly thought that if Xue Baochai only had one girl beside him, it might be related to the fact that he could not live in the house. Otherwise, the Xue family would not be unable to afford a girl.
Furthermore, what Lin Yutong couldn't figure out was that since it was Rong Gong's twilight residence, it was just used as a place for relatives to live in. How come when it was time to build the Grand View Garden, it was given to a young actor to live in. In the end, it even became You
The place where the second sister’s spirit rests!
This is really disdain for descendants! The territory of the ancestors can be so ruined. For ordinary people, such a place can only be reserved for the head of the family or the children to study.
No matter how many meanings Li Xiangyuan represents in the original work. It may be said that it is the place where Baoyu is friendly, or it alludes to the Liyuan Theater and represents life as a play. Others say that pear blossoms are the same as "living", which is doomed to tragedy.
No matter what others say, it’s not my home! Who cares?
However, Lin Yutong was surprised for a moment when Shi Xiangyun took over from Lin Daiyu and moved into Bishaqing. This Shi family is really tireless in destroying people!
But when Wang Xifeng returned to the house, Ping'er greeted her, helped her take off her big sweater and clothes, and briefly washed her clothes. Then someone set out the meal, "Grandma, at least eat some first."
The daughters-in-law of the Jia family are very hardworking. They have to watch others eat. Only then do they have time to eat.
Wang Xifeng sat down on the kang, "I'm not exhausted. You haven't seen him, but he is a powerful person."
"No matter who she is, she can be better than grandma." Ping'er said with a smile.
"This is no nonsense! He is not even a little bit better than me. His willingness to risk everything is beyond compare to mine." Wang Xifeng sighed.
Ping'er smiled, changed the subject and said, "The two thousand taels of silver have been transferred to the public account. Just now I saw that my wife sent someone from Zhou Rui's family to the accounting office. It's time to pay for the silver."
Wang Xifeng nodded: "I'm afraid it's for someone from the palace. Counting the days, it's time to come and collect the money. No matter when I don't have three or five hundred taels, I can't send it away. I came here after the Lantern Festival,
I gave him two hundred taels, but he didn’t seem to like it very much. I don’t have five hundred taels this time, so I’m afraid it won’t be easy to talk to him.”
"It's hard to talk without five hundred taels." Jia Lian's voice came from outside the door. He lifted the curtain and walked in with a smile. "No matter who he is, don't worry about it for now. The eldest master talked again, saying that he liked it.
What kind of painting is that? Let me bring you eight hundred taels first. I have to hurry up and get some money."
Wang Xifeng put down her chopsticks and said angrily: "I just received two thousand taels. My wife wants to pay one thousand taels at least, and the eldest master wants another eight hundred taels. Anyway, I only have two hundred taels left in the account. Tomorrow it won't be enough for the clear money of the master.
The guests pay for a meal and drinks. How can we live like this?"
"Then tell me who you want to give this to or not. It's possible that the eldest man only remembered this incident when he saw his wife paying for the money. If you refuse it today, it will be no small matter." Jia Lian sat on the edge of the Kang, "
It doesn't matter where you go tomorrow, just save a sip, it will be enough. Besides, the Lin family has put money away, and the Xue family is embarrassed to live in vain. I'm afraid they will send money again tomorrow. You are also able to make ends meet.
."
Wang Xifeng sighed, "That's all, let you go."
Jia Lian then stood up and said, "I won't be back tonight. My eldest brother has sent Rong'er to invite you. He said he was inviting some eunuchs from the palace to have a drink. I have no choice but to go."
"Bah! What kind of eunuch?" Wang Xifeng scolded, "I don't know where this pink-headed lady came from. She is fooling the devil."
Jia Lian just walked out and said, "I don't have any money on me. What kind of fangirl doesn't want money and gives me money? She's just being careless."
After saying that, she threw the curtain and went out. Angry, Wang Xifeng threw the plate and mixed the bowl again.
Jia Lian turned around and paid 800 taels of silver to his account, and gave 600 taels to Jia She.
After leaving two hundred taels with him, he took Wanger out of the house and went to find Jia Zhenjiarong and his son.
The Zhou Rui family pointed out the silver to Mrs. Wang and said, "Madam, one thousand taels of silver. The Lin family is quite generous."
Mrs. Wang nodded, "Then I'm afraid Internal Inspector Xia will come here in the next two days, so keep five hundred taels outside and put the rest away. You won't need it for the time being."
Zhou Rui's family responded in a low voice and asked: "My aunt sent someone to ask if the money given this time should be kept in the public account or kept by my wife."
Wang twirled the beads for a moment and said, "Bring them over first. If you leave them outside, they won't be able to withstand the daily expenses. They will have to make ends meet early. I'll keep them first."
"My second grandma asked, what should I say?" Zhou Rui's family asked again.
"The eldest lady needs to be taken care of in the palace. I'm in a hurry to use it, so I'll take it away first." Mrs. Wang turned to the Buddhist scriptures again and twisted the beads.
Zhou Rui's family agreed, and then turned around to do things. (. )
