Accumulate Wealth in Life

Shuzi High Gate (28)

Prince Heng didn't talk to Jin Chengan for a long time. It took less than half an hour from entering the door to going out. Of course, if the door is really closed for a long time, the emperor should be suspicious.

Guiwu came back and talked, and the fourth master told him to go down and rest.

Lin Yutong was instructing a few girls to clean up the house. It was really a hassle to move and rearrange the house. It was broken and fragmented, and it seemed that nothing was suitable.

"Tomorrow, ask someone to make a few wooden troughs and plant a crop of green vegetables. After the year, you can eat them. If you get garlic sprouts, I guess you can catch up with the Chinese New Year." Lin Yutong said to the fourth master when he saw the fourth master come in. . Now, there are not many people who can use them. There are less than 30 of them when they are full. The others have been returned to Mrs. Chu by Lin Yutong. Give it to whomever you love.

The fourth master responded: "This is not urgent. I don't have anything to use at home. I'll find a way."

Lin Yutong thought it was true, there were only four girls beside him, the fourth master was serving in Guixi's study, and Guiwu was in charge of foreign affairs. There are several teams in and out of this mansion to support it. It's also been too cold recently, people who are frozen can't go out, and everything has to be slowed down.

She remembered something, and asked the fourth master in a low voice: "You said, this Miao family hides their cards so tightly, and it seems that they didn't give everything to the Duke's government. Then you say, what about this old Miao family member? Even if the master is dead, then those old people? He can't have such a big estate without leaving a single old person."

The fourth master immediately understood what Lin Yutong meant: "Aunt Miao must be gone." Not everyone is the same as Mrs Gan. Besides, if Jin Chengan wanted the property of the Miao family, he would not let the master of the Miao family leave his sight alive. Moreover, the maps hidden in those books, if they really leave alive, they will not take this thing with them. "But this old man... you really should be careful to inquire." After speaking, he called Guixi in, and ordered in a low voice, "Go and tell Guiwu, and see if you can find out what the Marquis of Jing'an often goes to. place."

Gui Xi responded with a sigh, and shrank his neck and got out.

Lin Yutong understood. The Marquis of Jing'an put the Miao family's affairs on the bright side in front of everyone, and when he thought about it, he felt quite meaningful. But she can't get involved in this matter, so she should do what she can. So I called Gui Fang to come: "Take out the skins we have saved, and make two pieces of squirrel skins for the four of you, together with Guixi Guiwu, and one piece of sheepskin for the one serving in the yard. If the skins are not enough, go buy them. If you can't do it by yourself, go to a tailor outside. You don't care about the embroidery color, just make it as soon as possible. The in and out, one by one, with their shoulders shrunk, what does it look like?"

Fourth Master is more straightforward, "Call the ready-to-wear shop, buy ready-made and live first."

Gui Fang felt distressed when she figured it out: "Then this leather... do you still make it yourself?"

Lin Yutong laughed: "Yes! There are not many people in the group. If you live by yourself, you have to have the atmosphere to live by yourself."

As a result, the next day, the yard was full of servants in new leather jackets. Fourth Master and Lin Yutong got up early in the morning and went to greet the old lady, although the first few times, they just sat in the flower hall and asked about the old lady who was serving.

The courtyard they live in now has only two doors connected to the mansion. One is the back garden and the other is the small arch on one side of the hanging flower gate. The door leading to the back garden, Lin Yutong, was already sealed. There is only this small arch, and Lin Yutong arranged for two old ladies to guard it here. There is a row of shrouds beside the arch itself, and she changed the shroud closest to the arch into a gatehouse. On weekdays, this small arch is locked, and when someone goes out, they must get a sign from Sanxi to pass the yard. And if someone wants to come in over there, you have to knock on the door first, and then the old ladies will open the door and let them in. After entering, you have to wait in the concierge, you can't walk around. Only when the old woman asked the little girl who was specially serving here to lead the way, she could walk.

Today, the two of them entered through the small arch, which is a narrow passage. After passing through the narrow passage, they entered another small arch, which is the yard where the husband and wife lived. Going through it again, it is the middle road of the entire Guogongfu. Go inside, the fourth entrance is where the old lady lives.

When the couple arrived, the prince and his wife just came out of it.

Xiao Chu sent someone to send Lin Yutong a basket of frozen pears last night, and when he came back, he heard how strict Dongyuan's management was. She didn't think there was anything wrong with this kind of vigilance. The stricter the management, the less trouble there will be, which is more convenient in her opinion. Now that I see Lin Yutong, I smile: "I'll go to your place to get the scriptures. Our sister-in-law hasn't talked in one place yet."

Lin Yutong saw that the fourth master and Jin Shouren were at the side and didn't know what to say, so he turned his head and greeted the little Chu family: "One day I want to come over, the elder sister-in-law asks someone to explain to the mother-in-law through the door, and I am ready to prepare, but the elder sister It's a good thing, if you don't take out the bottom of the box, I'm afraid it won't make sense."

Little Chu laughed. She is a tall and refreshing beauty. She smiled with a bit of publicity. She saw her eyebrows were raised, "I can wait. Don't try to sweeten me with good words." After speaking, she glanced into the hall and whispered. Said: "There is still one sitting inside. Don't you know, now the in-laws of the Qi family live here, saying that the second grandmother is alone and lives here for company."

Lin Fanghua lived here to accompany Qi Duoer? This is really...

Lin Yutong understood what Xiao Chu meant, this Lin Fanghua was the daughter of the Lin family. "I really don't know that. I just know that I just moved from the Lin family to the Qi family courtyard a few days ago. I really don't know that I live at home now."

This means that he was swept out of the house by the Lin family.

"Okay, let's go quickly, it's not cold, let's stop at the door." Jin Shouren's voice came from one side.

When Lin Yutong looked up, the fourth master was already standing on the steps.

Little Chu snorted softly and whispered to Lin Yutong: "These men are all virtuous, why didn't they say cold when they talked just now..."

Lin Yutong pursed his lips and smiled, and watched Little Chu leave. Only then did he pass his hand to the fourth master and ask her to help him up the steps. Although this step is under the corridor, it always feels that the bluestone slab is frozen hard and slippery.

The two went in, but this time they saw the old lady. The house was closed a bit tightly. In order not to make the smell in the house unpleasant, incense was used. As soon as you entered the door, the smell almost knocked people back.

When Lin Yutong approached, the mammy next to her whispered to the old lady lying down that the fourth young lady was coming, and the old lady stretched out her hand to touch Lin Yutong's hand. The surprise in Lin Yutong's eyes flashed past, he couldn't see it. She stretched out her hand and grabbed the old lady's wrist, knowing her pulse as soon as she felt it. The old lady has glaucoma. After a long time, she can see a little blurry shadow. Moreover, in Lin Yutong's opinion, the old lady's eyes no longer need treatment. If you take good care of it, the old lady's lifespan will only be three or five months, and it will come to an end.

In a flash, her hand was pulled by the old lady instead. Rubbing up and down, "Well! The fourth child is lucky. This daughter-in-law is the most tender and slippery..."

What is this all about! What does it sound like.

The old lady who was waiting on the side smiled awkwardly, and the old lady spoke again: "...strange..." She pinched Lin Yutong's fingers and touched them one by one, "...it's hard...it's too rigid...this is Good but not good... But a person who can live in peace is better than the daughter-in-law of the second family, the daughter-in-law of the second family is not a safe one, she can't keep it..."

The old mama quickly rescued Lin Yutong from the side, "You haven't given the fourth grandma a gift."

The old lady turned her head and pointed to the cabinet by the bedside, "Add that ruby ​​set, that's a good thing..."

As a result, Lin Yutong was confused and took two gifts from the old lady. One set was jadeite. Although the water head was good, the value was the same. This set of ruby ​​was really good.

In the end, Lin Yutong couldn't help but tell the old mama: "When you ventilate the outside, put a light curtain on the inside door, it can breathe more or less, and it is more comfortable for people to carry."

The old mama glanced at Lin Yutong in surprise, and lowered her eyelids.

When I turned around and went out, I saw Qi Duoer kneeling in front of the Buddha statue in the corner of the outer hall. Apparently praying. Lin Yutong sighed, this one is willing to go out. But it's a show... Really filial piety, where is the chanting different? Besides, she wanted to take advantage of the old lady, but she was afraid that she would not succeed. The old lady was blind. And the old lady's life span is approaching!

After returning, Lin Yutong told the fourth master about the old lady's physical condition. This person is gone, and she must be filial. If Jin Chengan's current position changes because of Shou Xiao, then many things will be difficult to say. Seeing the fourth master nodding, he went to his heart, so he changed the subject and said, "Does the old lady know how to look at her bones?"

Fourth Master really didn't study the metaphysics. But there are more things people don't understand in this world. You can't just beat someone to death with a stick, saying it's superstition. He took Lin Yutong's hand, touched his finger and said, "There are such records in some books, who knows whether it is true or not?"

However, Lin Yutong became interested, "I must learn it if I have the opportunity in the future..." Even if it was to fool people.

Anyway, idle is idle, two people tossing in the room, to see if there are books on this. It was almost time for lunch. Xiangli came in and asked what he wanted to eat at noon. Lin Yutong hadn't said anything yet. Gui Wujin asked outside, saying that Princess Heng had posted a message and asked Lin Yutong to go to the palace tomorrow.

The fourth master asked Guiwu to send the post in. Only then did Lin Yutong slowly put down the book in his hand, and flatten the pages little by little, "In such a hurry..."

Guiwu sent the post to the fourth master, the fourth master opened it and glanced at it, and handed it to Lin Yutong, "Look, it is indeed the princess."

It's the princess, not the concubine. This made Lin Yutong a little uncertain for a while.

After eating early the next day, the fourth master personally escorted Lin Yutong there, "Just go, I'll be waiting at the nearby restaurant. I guess it's almost time, I'll pick you up at the door."

Lin Yutong burst into laughter: "I'm so bad? It's just to see a princess." We've seen a lot of princesses.

When Li Xiangjun got the letter, he asked Mammy Zhang to pick him up, and at the same time asked someone to inform Concubine Gan.

Mammy Zhang sighed and could only stand at the door of the inner courtyard early and wait. The carriage stopped at the entrance of the inner courtyard. She was about to go up to meet her when she caught a glimpse of the stone wall on the side, and Mammy He stood there watching silently.

When he turned his head, he saw a tall and graceful figure had come down from the carriage...
