Chapter 30: Introduction (1)

Qingli hurriedly poured a cup of warm water into it, and smiled at the old lady Lin lying on the bed: "It's the fourth girl, who had resigned from Mrs. Tao Jiaji, and came over to thank the old lady for her grace. Because the old lady has stopped. , Shi Cai saluted at the door and went back."
The old lady said nothing.
She was facing the wall, Qing Li couldn't see her face clearly, so she tentatively said: "Old lady, do you want to drink water?"
"Don't drink." The old lady said slowly and nonchalantly: "So she still has my grandmother in her eyes."
Qingli was speechless for a while. The daring old lady has been waiting for Lin Jinrong to thank her. If the four girls do not come, I am afraid that even if they kowtow to the old lady in the future, the old lady may not look at her directly. People, it is the tone of love.
Lin Jinrong only returned to his small yard, and two groups of people came along. The first call was the loquat next to Lin Jinyin. The loquat sent Lin Jinrong a box of gold and silver jewels that had been weighed. He also carried Madam Gui and others on his back and passed Lin Jinyin's original words: "The third girl said that she did not approve of you doing this. But. Money is something outside of your body, but you are her only sister. If you insist, she will give it. It is a blessing to become a blessing. If you fail, you will remember this lesson."
How could it fail? Sure enough, Lin Jinyin, a steady eldest sister, had to stab her. Lin Jinrong smiled and received Lin Jinyin's advice, and collected the box of gold and silver, and then personally rewarded the loquat. The loquat seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "The slave girl is really responsible for running this trip. The girl really wants the reward, just waiting for you to earn it. Reward for the money, the slaves will not be too much." After a pause, he kindly reminded: "The meaning of the three girls, irrelevant people don't need to let them know, and it saves a lot of trouble."
Got it! This girl has always been appropriate and considerate, and she is also a good listener. It is a treasure, no wonder she will become the Taoist housekeeper later. Lin Jinrong smiled, and ordered the lychee to send the loquat out. He lays out the paper under the lamp, and writes the gold and silver so that it can be handed to Tao Fengtang.
Mother Gui and Longan didn’t know what she had just done. They only wondered why she was studying ink and writing in the middle of the night. They couldn’t help being confused: "Girl, what is this going to do?" There were countless little paws scratching and scratching in Longan’s heart. Didn’t the third girl just quarrel with the fourth girl? Why did you send another box of things? Loquat is still mysterious, what is it? What is it?
Lin Jinrong smiled slightly, "I asked my elder cousin to help me buy some novelties at the bargain market, so I'm writing a list." Both of these girls are illiterate, so they are so coaxing.
Longan also died down, she thought very cleverly, that box of things, probably what the third girl wanted to show the young master, just embarrassed to speak, let the fourth girl's hand?
Just gossiping, Lin Jinrong just walked in here when the lychee walked in, with a strange expression: "Girl, you dropped a purse when you were pleased with the third master. Aunt Huang brought it to you personally." Knowing this black light is blind, Aunt Huang is assisting a girl to do what she does secretly.
In the past, Aunt Huang loved to do this face-saving love, but Lin Jinrong never easily refused to see her, nor did she accept her affection. Mother Gui followed her old habits and said: "The girl rests at ease, and waits for the old slave to go out to serve her aunt."
Lin Jinrong put down the pen in his hand and said faintly: "My aunt is kind, how can I be so neglectful of her? Please come in for tea."
Madam Gui hesitated a bit, but Lin Jinrong had already walked out, smilingly greeted Aunt Huang who stood under the porch, facing away from her staring at the deadly wind lantern above her: "Auntie, what is a purse? It’s rainy and cold at night, and it’s the same as if you just meet me or give it to me another day. Come in and warm yourself up with a cup of hot tea." After a gaze, he stopped in the hands of Aunt Huang’s personal servant Zaoer. The double-layer black lacquered food box above.
Aunt Huang smiled modestly, her gaze fell on the black lacquered food box as Lin Jinrong's line of sight, and her tone was no more affectionate: "San Ye is going to eat sweet-scented osmanthus balls, and the slave is thinking about the deep rain and cold at night. It just so happened that everyone ate a bowl of warmth to relax before sleeping, so they made more and sent them to the wife, the third girl, and the fifth young master. The seventh young master was so young that he couldn't eat it, so he didn't send it. The girl lived far away, so she didn't worry about sending it to others, so she sent it herself."
"Auntie has a heart, thank you." Lin Jinrong half-littled her and greeted her in the room, and asked Auntie Huang to sit on the couch near the window and bring hot tea from lychees.
Longan was going to pick up the food box in Zao'er's hand, but Zao'er shrank, her eyes looked at Aunt Huang, and her mouth smirked: "It's rare for a slave and maidservant to have a chance to serve the four girls, so I shouldn't fight with my sister."
Longan was furious. The masters and servants were shameless people. They slapped their noses on their faces. The master robbed the man and the maid rushed to grab the girl. What reason! When I was about to ridicule the date, I heard Lin Jinrong say: "Dongan, my aunt is rare to come here, I remember we still have some lotus root cakes, please go to the hot drink and invite my aunt to try it." Look like this, the pouch and the sweet-scented osmanthus. The are just an introduction, she really wants to know, what is the bottom layer of the two layers of food boxes? Why not just create a chance for Aunt Huang?
Longan was not irritated, but he didn't dare not listen, so she had to bow and bow. Lin Jinrong called her Grandma Gui: "Sister, please go and help me see the hot water. It was a cool breeze and rain. Some chill, I want to bubble."
"Yes." Mother Gui glanced sadly at the lychees standing on the side, and walked out gently.
At this moment, Zao'er had opened the first food container, took out a fine pink porcelain bowl with both hands and handed it to Lin Jinrong. The sweet scent of Osmanthus fragrans kept digging into Lin Jinrong’s nose. She smiled slightly, took a spoon and scooped a ball into her mouth without hesitation, savored it carefully, and sighed: "My aunt is good craftsmanship, this close At all levels, only you can make sweet-scented osmanthus like this."
Aunt Huang smiled and said: "If a girl likes to eat, just send someone over and say it, even in the middle of the night, the slave will cook it for you."
Lin Jinrong smiled slightly and told the truth: "Where do I have that blessing? Didn't I kill me? My father would not forgive me first, and my fifth brother would blame me for tossing auntie."
Aunt Huang was stabbed by her big truth, but she didn't take it seriously, and smiled lightly: "The girl said and laughed, if it weren't for you, how could the fifth young master be let go by the old man so easily? The slave is crude, but It’s a memory. In the past half a month, it’s inconvenient for you to go out, and for slaves to visit. But you never stopped in your hand. The two pairs of shoes you want have already got a pair, and they will be sent together in a few days. If you are sick, you can bring it together today."
Lin Jinrong nodded, and went straight in: "I wonder what purse my auntie picked up? Can you show me?" She knows whether she has ever dropped a purse. She knows best whether Aunt Huang has picked up a purse.
Aunt Huang’s complexion changed several times suddenly, cloudy and sunny, and her eyes were a bit erratic. Then, her gaze fell on the piece of paper on the table that Lin Jinrong could not put away in the future, her eyes lit up, and she said: " Four girls, the slave came in the middle of the night and asked for something."
The spoon in Lin Jinrong's hand slowly scooped a round sweet-scented osmanthus ball, and the fish caught the bait, but she was careless, and it was very likely that all the hard work and calculations were lost. Be steady, be steady! She feeds the sweet-scented osmanthus ball into her mouth and smiles faintly: "My auntie has a wrong love.
Aunt Huang frowned and said: "Four girls, I'm not the one who doesn't know how to look at the momentum. This is not difficult. As long as you gently raise your hand, it will pass. It is good for me. You and even our three bedrooms are good."
"Oh?" Lin Jinrong looked at Aunt Huang with a half-smile: "I would like to hear the details." It's because Aunt Huang knows how to look at the momentum, otherwise she wouldn't hit Aunt Huang.
Aunt Huang signaled Zao'er to go out, and Lin Jinrong let the litchi out.
The lower layer of the double-layered food box was opened, and it was full of gold and silver bars of different sizes, not many, and similar to Lin Jinrong's private house. Aunt Huang put her fingers on the edge of the black lacquered food box, a little uncertain.
Lin Jinrong ate another sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus ball and smiled faintly: "My auntie took these gold and silver for no reason.
Aunt Huang raised her eyes to Lin Jinrong. But seeing Lin Jinrong sitting under the lamp with a sweet smile and slight disdain, as if he had seen through his own tricks, but deliberately pretended to be confused, he gritted his teeth: "I heard that the price of gold and silver in Qingzhou is higher than that in Pingzhou. high."
Lin Jinrong accepted a smile, she threw the spoon into the small bowl, and made a clear "dingdong" sound. Her voice seemed to be covered with a layer of ice: "My auntie's ears are really good. But even so, that's it. Don't do your business."
A faint, but particularly bold smile appeared on Aunt Huang's lips: "Four girls, it is not the courage of the slave, but the kindness of the girl. The slave cannot be easily brushed."
Lin Jinrong's eyes were full of chill, staring at Aunt Huang motionlessly.
Yes, even if she didn’t see it with her own eyes, she knew that there were some things she couldn’t hide from Aunt Huang. For example, taking gold and silver to Qingzhou to exchange for the price difference. Dow was not the first in this family to do it, nor would she. Is the last one to do. How can such a relaxed way of making money, like Aunt Huang, who especially needs gold and silver, not know? But last night, regardless of Lin Jinyin's objection, she deliberately pulled Tao Fengtang to say that in the yard of Master Lin San, originally for another purpose.
She was fishing, catching the slippery fish Aunt Huang. Aunt Huang, like her, is a person who is particularly eager for money, especially Aunt Huang, who has a low status and is not free to enter or leave. Even if she knows how to do such a thing, she has no way to go, nothing to do, nothing. Envy but can't. She deliberately told Aunt Huang that she was going to have a kick, taking advantage of the moment when Aunt Huang's imaginary fire surged, and waiting for Aunt Huang to jump boldly. At this moment, Aunt Huang jumped up bravely following her footsteps!
However, Lin Jinrong did not feel the joy and excitement of the upcoming success. Her mind became calmer and clearer. She heard her voice like a straight line without any ups and downs: "Auntie's words are too profound, I don't understand."
