Chapter 29 The Red Chamber (29)

Red Mansion()

But it was said that the Jia family was all very happy because of the concubine in Yuanchun. The female relatives all wanted to enter the palace to express their gratitude. Suddenly, they became busy. Lin Yutong and Lin Daiyu quietly retreated and walked into the yard.

"Sister, I look at it with cold eyes. This grandma's family has already passed the day. Now that there is such a happy event, I am afraid that things will be a little more excessive. On the contrary, I am a little more worried." Lin Daiyu tightened her cloak.

Tight, he sighed leisurely.

"Yes! Anyone with a discerning eye can see this. But the man who has no future in his family has always been used to such luxury. Don't you know the truth that 'it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality'? This is not what we say

Things that can be explained clearly." Lin Yutong smiled slightly and said nothing.

"Why was sister so happy just now?" Lin Daiyu looked at Lin Yutong and asked.

Sensitive kids are so unpleasant.

Can you say that I want to plot your grandfather's family's money? Lin Yutong wanted to deceive, but looking at Lin Daiyu's black and white eyes, she really couldn't tell lies. She looked around, the surroundings were still empty, and whispered:

"I'm not happy, but I'm laughing at those men who have read so many books in the past, but didn't hear anything strange. My sister also reads history books, how can the word 'virtue' be so useful? A concubine, let's not start with it.

There have never been two words in this title, but just looking at the word 'virtuous' shouldn't make you a little wary. I remember that this eldest cousin was a female official in the queen's palace. Didn't the female official also serve people?

Yes, why did she use the word 'virtuous', so what should I use to evaluate the queen?"

Lin Daiyu was stunned for a moment, and then her expression turned bad: "According to what my sister said, it's going to be bad."

"Anyway, I've never heard of a concubine being praised for being 'virtuous'. This virtuousness doesn't sound like a title, but more like..." Lin Yutong paused after saying this.

Lin Daiyu felt anxious and asked quickly: "What does it look like?"

"Posthumous title!" Lin Yutong spat out two words in a very soft voice.

But it exploded in Lin Daiyu's heart. Isn't what my sister said made sense? There must be some. But can you tell your grandmother? Do you believe it? On such a happy day, if you say such a thing, people will

What do you think? Wouldn't it offend the entire Jia family?

Moreover, this also involves my sister's private speculation on the Holy Will, and she dare not announce it easily. This matter concerns the Lin family.

Besides, what if His Majesty had some intention? No one else exposed it, but he did it unintentionally. Who could bear the result if His Majesty's plan was ruined?

How did Yang Xiu die? He was killed by his own cleverness and open mouth. It doesn't matter if you are clever, but there is a saying that 'see through but don't tell through'.

"Sister, I understand." Lin Daiyu turned her head and said with difficulty: "As soon as the decree from above comes, this fate has been determined. Whatever you do is in vain, the building will collapse, and no one can stop it."

Lin Yutong nodded, "Let's go. Go back."

"Sister, please go back first. I feel depressed and want to go for a walk alone." Lin Daiyu said in panic.

Lin Yutong nodded understandingly. Lin Daiyu was different from him. He was not related to the Jia family, and even had some grudges because of the two aunts. Therefore, when he knew the result, his heart was calm. There was a kind of

It felt like it had finally come. But these people were Lin Daiyu's blood relatives, people who were related by blood. The pain in her heart was inevitable.

"It's cold outside, don't wait too long." After Lin Yutong warned, he also ordered a few girls, "Watch your master and don't make any mistakes."

Then he sent someone to deliver a letter to the shopkeeper, telling him to step up preparations and start immediately.

While Lin Daiyu was wandering aimlessly outside, she walked across from Jia Baoyu. She saw that Baoyu's eyes were slightly red, and he was in a daze, without any joy.

She breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "Everyone is congratulating the Queen on her happy event, why don't you go? You are just here in a daze. People see you and say you are stupid."

When Jia Baoyu saw that it was Lin Daiyu, she felt a little better. She accepted her sadness and said with a smile: "I don't want to meet my sister here."

"I've wandered around this garden a few times. I've never met you. I just wanted to ask what you've been busy with these days." Lin Daiyu turned her head and spoke with a hint of anger.

In the name of studying, Jia Baoyu hung out with Qin Zhong in the study, but he seldom hung out at home these days. So when he saw Lin Daiyu asking, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and said with a smile: "What are you busy with? It's just that the master is at home. I don't dare to go out and fool around. I'm just pretending, and I have to spend my time in the study."

"Then why do you have free time today and come out to hang out again? But I see that my second uncle is busy with my cousin's affairs and can't pay attention to you for a while." Lin Daiyu asked with a smile.

Jia Baoyu pursed his lips and smiled: "I really can't hide anything from you. However, you only guessed the first part, but you don't know the second part." As he said that, he thought of Qin Zhong and his eyes turned red again. "The Qin brothers, since He is an excellent person. Since her sister passed away, his father has also disappeared a few days ago. Now he is the only one who looks bad. I had a good relationship with him, how can I not be sad when I see him?" As for Qin He didn't dare to mention a word about how Zhong made his father so angry and how he had an affair with Zhi'er.

Lin Daiyu suddenly realized that it was for this reason. She thought he had seen the dangers behind the blooming flowers and the burning fire. She sighed in her heart, Baoyu was originally a very soft-hearted person. She advised: "You Always send people to have a look, and don’t delay getting medical advice. In terms of money, maybe it’s short, or you can’t get it together for a while, so you can just subsidize one or two. This is also your wish. If your money is short, , Just take the food from me. You are afraid of calling the old lady. The lady knows it and dare not use your own things. Send Mingyan to the back door of my house and just tell the concierge that I will ask someone to give you the money. You hand it out."

"Good sister." Baoyu grabbed Lin Daiyu's hand, "You are the only one who knows my heart."

Lin Daiyu pulled her hand back and scolded: "Speak well, talk well, it's getting worse every day, and it's always like this." She was very careful, but she didn't expect Baoyu to still not make progress. She stared. After one glance, he turned around and left. He had no intention of turning around again.

Before the people here could walk quickly, in the distance, Xiren stood on the side of the road and shouted: "My second master, it's so cold and freezing, why are you here? How can we ask the old man if we are suffering from frostbite?" Madam, tell me." After that, he said to Daiyu: "Miss Lin is here too. If you want to talk in this cold weather, please come to our room. If you want to talk to us outside, don't talk about anything else. You won't even get sick from the cold. alright."

Lin Daiyu's expression suddenly changed. This meant that she had tripped Baoyu and should not have dragged him to talk outside. It was even more excessive to ask a girl to go to the man's house to talk.

Zijuan's face turned red with anger but she was speechless. The girl in Zi Lai Bao Yu's house was one step ahead of others.

But Zhilan and Fanghua are not vegetarians. Zhilan sneered and said: "We girls, why don't we walk a few laps in this garden every day? Who doesn't know that we girls have the habit of walking at fixed points? Why, our Lin family lives here

In your house, you have to stay away from your master when you see him."

Fanghua chuckled and said, "You don't know this. This Xiren sister is a first-class virtuous person. As long as the second master Fanbao is not in front of her, he will definitely find him within a moment or three. That is really inseparable for a moment."

.”

If Xiren was just a girl, or if her affair with Baoyu had not been discovered, she would have listened to such words. However, everyone knows that she is not a girl anymore. She can't live without Baoyu all the time, but it's not a joke that she can't live without him.

man.

Such ridicule immediately made her face turn purple.

"Girl, let's go back. It's time for the older girl to think about it." Zhi Lan gave Lin Daiyu a hand and was about to leave.

As if thinking of something, Jia Baoyu ran around the attacker and ran to Daiyu, took out a string of musk and said, "I got this a few days ago. It was a gift from King Beijing. I left this special one for my sister."

.You take it out and play with it.”

Lin Daiyu might as well ask him to stuff it into his hand, and immediately got angry: "What stinky man took it? I don't want it." After saying that, she threw it into Baoyu's arms and returned with only the girl.

Jia Baoyu looked at Lin Daiyu's back and was a little stunned for a moment.

"Second Master, let's go back." Xiren said softly.

Jia Baoyu chuckled and turned away. When he returned to the yard, he became more and more unhappy. He felt that he was being restricted everywhere. If he wanted to spend some money, he would be questioned endlessly by the attackers. If he didn't find out the root cause, he would be in vain.

I won't use money casually. Even if I spend it outside, I still have to examine Mingyan for a long time when I come back.

I just feel that the charming charm I used to have is no longer there. I have become as hateful as Grandma Li.

Now that he wanted to help Qin Zhong, he had to borrow money from Sister Lin.

Seeing that Xiren was so attentive and wanted to move forward, he immediately twisted around and lay face forward. Xiren was so annoyed that all the girls in the room looked at her as if they were laughing. How could they feel in their hearts?

I'm not sad. I just feel that no one can understand her painstaking efforts. It's time for the second master to make progress. If he doesn't read a few books, he won't be able to do well in the future. It's a shame that these girls blindly encourage the men to have fun. The second master who instigated it is now seen.

I have become more and more like a scourge.

Lin Daiyu returned to the yard and saw a little girl who looked like Wang Xifeng's yard playing outside. She asked the woman guarding the door, "We have guests at home."

The woman said: "As for the second girl, it's Second Grandma Lian who is here."

Lin Daiyu was feeling uncomfortable and couldn't stand Wang Xifeng's irritability. She took the girl back to her house, and only sent someone over to say, "I'm tired after walking around, so I won't talk to my second sister-in-law anymore."

Wang Xifeng had just entered the house and had just been served tea. She had not yet entered the room. She said to the girl who was passing the message: "I told you girls to just rest peacefully. I came here to take a look around, so I won't disturb her."

Seeing that the girl was gone, he said to Lin Yutong: "Thank you for being able to control her. Now that she is walking around, she looks healthier. In the past, it was really a beauty lamp. People who looked at it were anxious."

"It's much better now. I used to be out of breath after walking for a quarter of an hour. Look, now I'm sweating a little after walking for half an hour. Take your time." Lin Yutong pushed the peeled chestnuts to Wang Xifeng, "You should do it now."

When you are busy, why do you have the time to come to my place?"

"Didn't I just send the old lady away? Madam is going out. I went to the palace to thank you and won't come out so soon. I will stay with you for half a day." Wang Xifeng asked when she saw that the chestnut was only half the size of the knuckle of the little finger and the end was small.

Said: "How do you find such a small thing?"

"This chestnut doesn't grow very big. A tree can't bear a few kilograms. But it tastes good." Lin Yutong smiled and said, "Try it and see."

This is why the shopkeeper bought a stone mountain near the capital for the convenience of quarrying. There is such a thick layer of soil on the mountain that a wild chestnut forest has grown. Lin Yutong also plans to transplant a few in his own space next spring.

Where is the tree?

"You have a fun-loving nature." Wang Xifeng ate and nodded repeatedly, "You have to have a smart person like you to take care of it, otherwise you won't be able to live such a comfortable life."

"Don't praise me either. Now in Ningrong and Rongfu, no one would say that the second sister-in-law is capable." Lin Yutong's compliment scratched Wang Xifeng's itch.

Seeing a hint of pride in her brows, she said modestly: "I'm the stupid one. They give me a mallet, but I just use it as a needle."

"Don't be self-effacing. When it comes to housekeepers, even ten of them are not yours." Lin Yutong praised, and then whispered: "But second sister-in-law, let's say a thoughtful word. You guys

You really don’t know anything about the situation in the house. A discerning person can understand things at a glance, but they can’t hide them. You must have put in a lot of money over the years."

Wang Xifeng looked around and saw the two of them in the room, and then she answered: "My sister is a bright-sighted person." She frowned, "The days are getting closer and closer, but now the mouth is talking about me.

I used money to support my natal family. Let’s not say that my natal family has gold, mountains and silver seas, just to make someone fat. If I support my natal family, who can I subsidize? My uncle and aunt.” When she talked about this, she was angry and couldn’t even defend herself.

both are not.

"That's why I said you are stupid. People give money back, but you only pour money out. To maintain the dignity of this family, what do you get? No servant's mouth can be forgiving." Lin Yutong pursed his lips.

He took a sip of tea and smiled.

"Sister, after we said we would return together, your second brother Lian still has to inherit this family. I can't let it fall like this now." Wang Xifeng said with a bitter smile.

"Whatever comes to your own home is yours. Now, it's just a big family, consuming the money of you two in the future. We all know that things are not our own. If it were me, I would work hard to build them and don't spend them now.

In the future, it will not fall into your own hands. Think about it, is this the truth?" Lin Yutong lowered his voice and said, "They all say that you can't kiss even if you are not. Today, I will say that you can't kiss even if you are not. Your aunt, wait for me.

How can you be better than her own daughter? You know how much of the family's expenses are thrown into the palace in exchange for a future. But in exchange for a future, can the second brother Lian get more than Baoyu?

.In the end, it has nothing to do with you. If you don’t believe it, just look at how the empress in the palace will behave in the future. Not to mention that she can put the eldest master and his wife on the same level as the second master and the second wife, as long as she still remembers

There is such a thing as a big house. It's not too late for you to be considerate and considerate to her."

Wang Xifeng's heart pounded when she said such straightforward words. But the more she thought about it, the more it made sense. The title in this family must be inherited by the two of them. Whose things are the expenses being spent on nowadays?

"That good thing will definitely not be your turn. All the hard work, trouble, and offending work are all taken care of by you. The good legitimate sons and grandsons have been reduced to housekeepers. What do you think, a smart person like you?"

Lin Yutong asked Wang Xifeng very puzzled.

"Old lady, she..." Wang Xifeng's eyes were already a little flustered. In the final analysis, the reason lies in the old lady's attitude. The reason why this mansion can still have the sign of Guogong's Palace is because the old lady still has a super-class title.

Now, this is how we can insist on not changing our signboard.

Therefore, the old lady is the face of the family.

"The old lady only wants Baoyu to be well." Lin Yutong said with a smile, "Besides, the old lady is old and can manage for a few days. Don't tell me that you have never fooled the old lady with your methods."

Wang Xifeng pointed at Lin Yutong, "That mouth of yours is really annoying."

Lin Yutong clicked on it. With Wang Xifeng's cleverness, he should be alert. He added: "If you don't have enough money, don't let others take advantage of you. I have a good business here, just come and find it."

I am." Anyway, the Jia family's purchases have to go through the hands of these two couples. It can only be regarded as a kickback for the couple. It also saves her from having to borrow usury money. After doing this business, the usury money will be three melons.

Zao, she also likes it.

Wang Xifeng was so excited by what she said, who still disliked the fact that money was so hot, so she quickly asked what kind of business it was.

Lin Yutong only said: "It won't be time. You will know when the time comes."

"I made a profit with three to five thousand taels of silver." Wang Xifeng tried.

"Pull it up ten times." Lin Yutong revealed a little more.

"Three to fifty thousand taels!" Wang Xifeng was startled, then lowered her voice and said, "You can't bluff me."

In fact, a Grand View Garden does not cost much money, and it is all stripped down by the people below. If you trade directly with Lian Er, there are no intermediate links, and the money saved will be more than 30,000 to 50,000 taels. Just go to Jiangnan to purchase small actors.

Along with those delicate and worthless sundries, I prepared 50,000 taels of silver. But I asked the Lin family to do it, and they didn’t even need the 5,000 taels. Of course, the Lin family had roots in Jiangnan, and had its own shop connections, and even the governor of Liangjiang was there.

Above. Lin Yutong has no intention of compressing other people's profits, but he can't stand it. The price given by others is definitely the lowest price. Anyway, if you add in the shipping fee, it really doesn't cost much.

She smiled and said: "I'm going to fool you. With this money, whether you manage it yourself or entrust it to others, there won't be a year when you don't receive 18,000 taels of silver." In the future, you won't have to waste money on a few hundred taels of silver.

If you don’t open it, you still have to treat it as your own jewelry.

Wang Xifeng immediately agreed, "It doesn't matter if I'm short of money or not, when the time comes, just ask me. No matter how much capital it costs, I will find a way to get it together."

Lin Yutong didn't say in advance that he wouldn't pay any money, so he smiled and nodded and agreed.

In fact, Lin Yutong really didn't know that Wang Xifeng had already been involved in loan sharking. Wang Xifeng was happy and returned to the house happily. Ping'er came over and whispered: "Sister-in-law Wang'er just sent the interest money, but...

The second master happened to be here at that moment. Tell me, she is getting more and more miserable. I finally found an excuse to deal with it. "

After Wang Xifeng got the news about Lin Yutong, she didn't think much of the two or three hundred taels of silver a month to make a living. Then she thought about raising money and said, "Let's stop here now. This thing is really harmful to Yin De."

Although I have never been afraid of ghosts and gods, there has been no movement in my stomach, and even you are useless. I can't even lay half an egg. No wonder there are so many things out there. This may not be because it is detrimental to your moral character."

Ping'er gave her a 'poof' and said with a smile: "Grandma heard some dirty talk somewhere and came back to talk to me about it."

"I'm really not kidding you." Wang Xifeng smiled inwardly and said: "I just saw the situation of the Lin family and felt something. You said, if Mr. Lin hadn't brought cousin Lin back, there would be no one in this family.

Son, who can I pass on to Nuo Da's family fortune? I have been calculating all day long to see how much I can spend. It is my dowry. What is left now will be enough to make a dowry for my eldest sister in the future.

No matter how much money I earn, who can I give it to? Even if you give birth to a child, we have raised him under our knees since he was a child, and you will not be able to rely on him when he gets old."

Ping'er's eyes turned red, "What kind of monster are you doing now? Come back and use these words to annoy people."

"Silly girl, what I said is the truth." Wang Xifeng leaned on the kang and said.

"But when my wife asked..." Ping'er said uncertainly, "How should we reply?"

Mrs!

Wang Xifeng felt excited.

"...Don't be taken advantage of and have evil thoughts..."

"...Your aunt can treat you no better than her own daughter and son..."

Lin Yutong's words were still ringing in her ears. Cold sweat broke out on her head instantly. Why didn't Auntie do this kind of business by herself? There must be something wrong with it.

She held on and said, "It's just for the sake of the heirs. Just accept it and I'll go and answer my wife's call later."

When Ping'er saw Wang Xifeng's bad expression, he thought she was doing it for the heir's sake, so he didn't dare to ask further questions. This master had a strong temper, and he was indeed stronger than others. Only the heir's side was a shortcoming. For this reason,

Angry.

She quietly withdrew, thinking about the sake of her heirs, and became more and more careful about the matter of accepting loan sharks. She hoped that there would be no clues left.

Wang Xifeng, on the other hand, thought about the events of the past years together, and the more she thought about it, the more stupid she felt. After hating and crying alone, she felt better.

It is said that the authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear. I am not confused. But there are so many bystanders, who can expose it in front of me.

She thought of Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai, who came to Jia's house earlier than Lin Yutong. These two people are also blood relatives to her. Although according to her husband's family, she has to call her aunt, but according to her mother's family, she is her biological aunt. Baochai is also her own.

Cousin.

It's okay if others can't see it. When it comes to Daiyu, she has a temperament that understands in her heart but never pays attention to worldly matters. I don't blame her. But Aunt Xue and Baochai, who don't have an account in their hearts, don't say to call them

Facing oneself is just showing it out, and I have success in my heart. It doesn't matter now.

I was sulking. When Jia Lian came back, he came over from the kang, and saw that his eyes were like walnuts when he was crying. The person who usually looks like a bully, now looks more touching than others.

He couldn't help but his voice became softer, "What's going on? Who provoked you?"

"It's okay." Wang Xifeng shook her head, "It's because I didn't give you a son. Thinking about it, I inevitably feel uncomfortable again."

"What do I mean?" Jia Lian shook his head, "You just have to take good care of it. We are still young and have a son. It's not like we can't have children. Anyway, it will come sooner or later." Without a son, he would be shorter than others when he stood up.

Halfway through, he was also anxious. But he remembered that he had something to discuss with Wang Xifeng, so he suppressed his words.

Wang Xifeng's expression changed. Seeing that Ping'er was not in the room, she said, "I'm discussing a serious matter with the second master."

Jia Lian couldn't help but wonder: "You can't make the decision on anything at home. It's strange today. You want to discuss it with me."

Wang Xifeng pushed him and said, "I'm thinking about it, I'm going to serve the wine in a serious manner and bring Ping'er's matter to light. I don't believe it anymore. The two of us still can't have a kid out of our stomachs."

Jia Lian was stunned for a long time, then reached out and touched Wang Xifeng's forehead, "You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?" Once Yan Zhihu in this family changes his temper, his first reaction will definitely not be surprise, but fright. He himself

On weekdays, when he and Ping'er were making out, they were sneaky and like thieves. He was really a little uncomfortable with this sudden act of generosity.

Wang Xifeng snorted coldly: "Ping'er is a good person, so you don't have to come into the house with a troublemaker. Life will not be peaceful. Otherwise, I..."

"Definitely!" Jia Lian stared at her and felt relieved. He is still the same jealous person at home and has not changed at all. "You make up your mind. I will listen to you."

"Don't make any noise for now. I'm going back to the old lady. Madam, let's have some fun. This will save her from being embarrassed and worried about whether I have a problem with her. From now on, she will continue to help with the affairs of this family." Anyway.

I will no longer rush forward stupidly when I offend others.

Jia Lian nodded. Having a beautiful wife and concubine is a joy in life, so there is no reason why she should not allow it.

Jia Lian then talked about his nanny brother and wanted to find a job. "It turned out that I had begged several times. I forgot about it when I got here. But by chance, I saw my mother passing by the garden from a distance before entering the door, and I remembered it again.

It won’t look good if you ask her to come to your door again for begging.”

"What's this worth? It's no use to anyone. You sent a boy to send a message back. I know it and I'll do it for you. It's worth your while to come and say it." Wang Xifeng stood up and gave him a look.

.

"That's not what you said. Why didn't you think of it at the time?" Jia Lian said sarcastically.

"I've made a note of this and will send someone to tell my mother later. Just rest assured." Wang Xifeng sat in front of the dressing table, arranging her hair and jewelry.

Jia Lian only said that Sister Feng was easy to talk to today, and she couldn't help but feel weak. She walked over and the two of them had a rough time.

"You just have to go, I'm afraid everyone who went to the palace will come back. You have to be busy, and I have to be free." Wang Xifeng sent Jia Lian away. She had something on her mind and had no time to quarrel with him.

Jia Lian slapped his forehead and hurriedly said, "Counting the time, it's almost time."

Wang Xifeng chuckled lightly, "If you didn't know better, you'd think I was going to meet your little love."

From a distance, I heard Jia Lian reply: "Nonsense!"

Regarding the construction of the provincial residence, Lin Yutong finally received the exact news amid all the expectations.

"This money can't withstand such spending." Lin Daiyu sighed and said.

Lin Yutong thought to himself, it must be spent like this, otherwise your sister and I will earn it. She vowed to earn back the money the Lin family gave to the Jia family.

Everyone in the Jia family was gathering together to discuss how to build a garden.

Wang Xifeng thought of Lin Yutong's words.

"The time has come."

When she heard this, she understood. Using the money from the public school to build the garden would basically wipe out the family's financial resources. What was left was an empty shell. What use would she have for it? If she didn't take advantage of this opportunity.

, put the money into your own pocket, you are really a fool making wedding clothes for others.

This errand must be carried out. It really cannot be passed through other people's hands. Jia Lian still has to handle the external affairs, but he will not reveal all the details to her.

For example, if he buys something worth 10,000 taels from the shop arranged by Lin Yutong, he will be given a benefit of 500 taels. But later, Lin Yutong will give him a kickback of 2,000 taels.

She didn't want to understand how Lin Yutong's business was done at first. After thinking about it for a long time, she remembered that Lin Yutong had already said that there would be opportunities to make money. In other words, the Lin family had already heard about the relatives' visit. Thinking of this, she felt

Secretly shocked. This is the difference between having real power and not having real power.

Then, Lin Yutong must have made preparations long ago, just waiting for the news to be released. If I am not wrong, I am afraid that she is the only one left in the capital that can sell building materials and the like. Exclusive business is naturally good.

Even if it is something from Jiangnan, it is difficult for others, but it is not too easy for the Lin family. Who has the guts to make money from the Governor's family of Liangjiang? The cost must be low. If you divide the profit for yourself, the Lin family will also get it.

It's the big head. What's more, she is not only engaged in the Jia family's business.

Thinking about it this way, I feel more and more that there are many benefits to cooperating with Lin Yutong. After getting the money this time, I will not take it back, but will directly hand it over to Lin Yutong to run the business and reap the dividends myself. It is not as easy and rich as the usury money. Moreover, the Lin family

She can trust his character, and besides, others may not think highly of the little money he has. When the time comes, he can use it as he pleases, which is easier than leaving it at home for Lian Er to think about. It would be fine if Lian Er lives his life wholeheartedly with her.

Oh, but he has an affair. Men can no longer be trusted. Money is much more reliable than men.

No matter how it was discussed in the end, who contributed how much money, this errand had to be handled by herself and Lian Er. She didn't care about the rest.

But the money at home is definitely not enough, so it is inevitable to borrow money from relatives and friends.

She thought for a while and went directly to Lin Yutong, so that her good aunt would not have to say anything and she would have no way to refuse.

Lin Yutong knew Wang Xifeng's purpose and said, "It just so happens that you will go over there to ask for a reward in a while. The Lin family is responsible for all the stones needed in the garden. You just need to send people to bring them back."

I bought a stone mountain, not much else, but a lot of stones. Most of the stones are used for this large garden. All the stones are covered, so it is quite grand.

Wang Xifeng laughed and scolded Lin Yutong for being smart. Others didn't know that Lin Yutong had a stone mountain, and they didn't know that Lin Yutong now monopolizes this business. According to the market price, the cost of this stone is huge.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Lin family is definitely generous.

Lin Yutong smiled and said to himself, if you can dig down a corner of the mountain, I can make a fish pond to raise fish in the free space.

After sending Wang Xifeng away and perfectly solving the Jia family's money borrowing problem, Lin Yutong was in a great mood.

Over there, Wang Xifeng went to find Mrs. Wang and told the Lin family what they wanted. Mrs. Wang indeed had a satisfied look on her face: "My son, you are the only one who understands my difficulties. It's hard for you to be willing to sacrifice your face to deal with me.

"

"Who said we are aunts and nephews? This lady and I are not only sisters-in-law, but also sisters. How can we not care about it?" Wang Xifeng said very emotionally.

"It's hard for you to be so attentive. I'm afraid I'll have to leave everything big and small to you and Lian'er." Mrs. Wang knew Wang Xifeng's temperament and couldn't bear to show off her abilities and methods.

Sure enough, Wang Xifeng happily agreed and promised to do it decently, "It's the account book, and I'll give it to you clearly. Just ask someone to check the account, and there won't be any mistakes."

Mrs. Wang didn't fully believe it, but she also knew that nothing serious could happen to her. There were so many pairs of eyes staring at her.

After Wang Xifeng accepted the order, she left happily. After thinking about it, Mrs. Wang quickly asked the Zhou Rui family to spread the word about the fact that the Lin family had packed all the stones for the garden. For one thing, she was worried that these children would not be able to build the garden.

They knew the prices but didn't know the size of the garden, so they responded haphazardly, and then backed down when the cost was too high. If they regretted it, they were relying on their young age and no obstacles. How could they still chase after their juniors for money?

For publicizing it so early, Lin Ruhai had to hold on for the sake of face. Secondly, with the Lin family comparing it to others, other families also had a reference.

Aunt Xue was worried at home after receiving the news, "This is a lot of money. The Lin family really doesn't feel bad."

Xue Baochai was much smarter. She smiled and said, "Let's see what mom can do. There are also stone mountains around the capital, and you can buy one with a few thousand taels of silver. But in this capital, there are rich and powerful people everywhere, and not everyone can buy the rocks and land."

The Lin family is different. A high-ranking member of the first rank cannot buy such a place. Even if we can understand the way inside, we can also get the money to buy it, but we can’t do it if we don’t have the connections. Count the Jia family, Tianzhuangzi,

Aren't they also in Dabei and Jinling? In front of the capital, they can't be ranked either."

"That's the truth. I'm afraid your aunt doesn't think so." Aunt Xue sighed.

Xue Baochai also felt worried...(.)
