The second room was originally quiet and quiet with only Mrs. Lin as the head of the house, but suddenly there was an outer room with a son. Immediately afterwards, the girl who had been doted on by her husband many years ago also died, and then her mother-in-law took the initiative and gave her husband a good concubine!
This year is simply a bad year for Lin.
What is Wen Yuniang trying to do to stimulate Lin at this time?
She definitely didn't want to recruit Lin to deal with her.
"To say that Lin's biggest enemy is actually Song Qian. Because no matter how much people hate Wen Yuniang and Huang Sha'er, they are just cheap concubines, and Song Qian is the one she needs to guard against the most. Wen Yuniang stimulated Lin fiercely in order to make her Lin takes action, but Lin is not stupid. If she takes action, the first person she has to deal with is Song Qian, not Wen Yuniang and Huang Shaer."
Changlan immediately cheered up after hearing this. Are these women going to fight again?
"The girl is right. Once Song Qian is defeated, Wen Yuniang and Huang Shaer, two ordinary concubines, will always find opportunities to get rid of them."
Li Qingyi raised his chin with his hands, looking like he was watching a good show, "I just don't know if Wen Yuniang's move will shoot herself in the foot."
"Should we give Aunt Huang a heads-up?"
"Well, go ahead and ask her to go out of the yard less recently and pay more attention to the servants around her, so as not to get involved."
*****
In the second room, Ms. Lin was leaning on the couch and staring blankly at the sparrow holding a spring flower in its mouth on the screen.
This was originally placed here for the occasion at the beginning of spring, but now that summer is almost over, she has no intention of replacing this screen.
In other words, her begonia screen was old and there was no point in replacing it.
Ruyuan walked in, looked at the lazy Lin, and couldn't help but turn down the corners of her mouth, "It's not a good idea for my aunt to lie like this all day long. Our third master is still waiting for money to save his life!"
It is said that every master has a slave, and Ruyuan's face is very similar to Zou's.
She was sent by Zou to monitor Lin.
Mrs. Lin was very angry at Mrs. Zou for behaving like this, but after thinking about it again, she decided to keep Ru Yuan for the time being.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Ruyuan couldn't help complaining: "What does it mean that my aunt didn't speak, just because our wife is worried about the house? Don't you want to wait till the end and let those people kill the third master?" If that's the case, let alone our wife not being able to spare you, even the old Marquis will want to ask you if your heart is dark!"
"You are more anxious than Mrs. Zou. What benefits did she promise you?"
Ruyuan paused in her throat and then said, "I am your lady's maid, so naturally I have to think about our lady."
"Oh, your wife? Lin Wenye is not an official, and Zou doesn't have a royal title, so why should we call her madam? Just call me madam!"
Ruyuan choked and her face turned red, "My aunt said that some of these things didn't do anything! Why don't you think of a solution quickly!"
She didn't know what tricks Zou knew about Lin, she was just following Zou's attitude and instructions and imitating them.
Lin gave her a sarcastic look, "You should give me some advice and see if there is anything I can do."
Ruyuan frowned, "There are so many rich people in the Wei family, can't my aunt open her mouth? As for Aunt Wen, she spends a lot of money and doesn't feel bad about it. She has a concubine, and my aunt can't handle it." ?」
"What's wrong with my concubine? Her money is still hers. Is it possible that I can snatch it away and use it?"
Ruyuan was speechless, and after thinking for a long time, she said unwillingly: "There is still a way. Auntie, I have to think about it carefully. If it doesn't work, just take out one or two of the treasures in Suochun Pavilion. , can you also give our master some relief?"
Mrs. Lin had deliberately manipulated Ru Yuan, but at this moment she couldn't help but her temples were beating with anger: "Who do you think I am? I am the second wife of Shangshu Mansion, and you want me to steal something?"
Of course Ruyuan also felt that this was not going to happen, but she still muttered sarcastically: "If all the pride is gone, sooner or later the face will be lost."
"What did you say!"
Ruyuan looked at Lin's face and flinched a little, but after thinking about it,
Still having the courage to say: "If you are not envious of the silver in Aunt Wen's hand, why are you gnashing your teeth at that piece of fox fur! Aren't you the slaves who are also helping my aunt! After all, if you are not caught by our husband... our wife Take advantage of me, you don’t have to be so passive now! If you want to blame, just blame yourself!”
"You bitch!"
Mrs. Lin was so angry that her head was smoking. She stood up and slapped Ru Yuan so hard that she couldn't stand and fell to the ground!
Ruyuan followed Zou's instructions and was about to have a seizure when she got up, but Dong Ling reported from outside: "Madam, Aunt Song is here."
Lin and Ru Yuan looked back and saw Song Qian walking in.
"I wonder if Madam is feeling better these days. I'll come over and have a look."...
Mrs. Lin looked at her as if she was a little taller and couldn't help but look at her feet.
Song Qian covered her lips with a smile and lifted up her skirt slightly, revealing a pair of pearl-encrusted high-soled shoes on her feet. "Madam, this is a joke. These high-soled shoes were given to me by Sister Wen. The heel is slightly higher than the forefoot. It was just a little bit taller when I put it on. I really liked it, so I put it on."
Lin's face-changing skills were incredible, and there was no sign that she was angry just now. She said, "It really showed off her posture."
Ruyuan interjected from the side: "Ah, these shoes are very expensive, right?"
The pearls are all of the highest quality, each one is round, plump and very shiny, and they are all of average size. In addition, the embroidery on the shoes is also extremely exquisite, so they are naturally valuable.
However, Song Qian didn't expect that a slave would interrupt his master's conversation at will, and couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Lin.
Mrs. Lin looked at Ruyuan fondly and said, "You girl, I have spoiled you. You are becoming more and more unruly. Why don't you interrupt me here and bring me some tea?"
Ruyuan didn't want to move, but in front of outsiders, she had no choice but to give Lin family face, so she had to go down and make tea.
Song Qian pretended not to see the slap mark on Ru Yuan's face and said with a smile: "These shoes are indeed expensive, but they are not as good as Madam's white fox fur. I heard that it is a white fox unique to the North. It has no variegated colors at all. It is extremely rare."
Lin's teeth were wrong when he heard this.
With Song Qian's background, it's not obvious that she has never seen this white fox fur before. She was deliberately insulting the Lin family.
The other party is a concubine, but she is still an aunt in essence. It is natural for the aunt to wear the things given by her aunt, but if Mrs. Lin wears the things given by her aunt, she will inevitably be ridiculed.
In other words, everyone can accept Aunt Wen's kindness, but only Lin can't.
She forced a smile and said, "Aunt Wen has her heart, so of course I accept her favor."
Song Qian rolled her eyes, "Yes, Sister Wen is so polite."
Ms. Lin tried her best to calm down the anger surging in her heart. She exchanged a few words with Song Qian and then showed signs of fatigue.
Song Qian carefully told her a few words, "Have a good health and recuperate" before leaving.
Ruyuan stretched her neck to look at Song Qian, "Everyone in this house has more money than my aunt. I don't know how my aunt has been able to get around for so many years. There is no one who can even ask for a loan?"
Ms. Lin glared at her fiercely, "Don't waste your time here, otherwise I'll make you look good first!"
Ru Yuan had just been beaten, and now she heard what Lin said. After all, she remembered that she was just a slave. She held her breath and said, "The people in the casino only gave the third master a month. If he can't raise enough within the time limit, The silver will definitely be lifeless! When our wife will make a fuss, my aunt will not be able to hide! I also think about my aunt."
Ruyuan rolled her eyes, thinking of Aunt Wen who had scattered her wealth, and said, "She is just an aunt, and you are the main wife. It is not easy to deal with her. We can't get the money from her shop, so we will take away the people around her." I’m afraid I’ve got a lot of ready money!”
Mrs. Lin looked at her, "Wen Yuniang is not a fool either!"
Ruyuan said with a cold face, "This won't work, that won't work either, then let me tell you what to do!"
"You go out, I want to think about it."
*****
Song Qian stood outside Peilan Courtyard for a while before leaving.
She has long inquired about the virtues of the Lin family in the Nanning Marquis Mansion.
Yes, some time ago there was a joke about uncle and nephew competing for a girl, which is the most ridiculous thing in the world!
Now there is still some hope for the Lin family's big house, but the second and third bedrooms are simply too mud to support the walls.
I heard that Mr. Lin went home some time ago and wanted to get close to the big house, but was treated coldly.
This is also true, if she is Lin's eldest sister-in-law, and has been ridiculed and targeted by her sister-in-law for many years, and suddenly her sister-in-law wants to ask for help, it is because of her kindness that she does not add insult to injury.
With such a Lin family, what did Lin go back to do yesterday?
I heard that someone from the third room of the Lin family asked her to go back, and they even brought back a girl from the Lin family...
Song Qian was really baffled.
Moreover, the girl named Ruyuan just now was so unruly that she didn't look like someone Lin asked to help her.
If you don't want it, it's someone else's!
Could it be that someone from the Lin family wanted to tuck that girl into Wei Shiyuan's bed?
