When she woke up the next day, Yutong told Lin Jinyan the news.
"Last night when the second master came back to the house, Butler Lin stopped him outside the house and told him to go back through the side door of Xiyuan. The second master lost his temper. It was not until Butler Lin said to go to the old master that the second master went back to the courtyard through the side door. ."
Agate combed Lin Jinyan's hair carefully, her movements and expression more cautious than before. After listening to Yutong's words, she also told what she knew.
"Not only the second master, but also the second wife made a big fuss in her house yesterday. When the maid cleaned it up, the house was full of broken porcelain pieces. When the old master found out, he sent someone to ask the second wife: Who was they throwing? But you don’t like the Lin family and want to go back to the Liu family? The second lady just gives up."
Yutong pouted: "What kind of anger are the second master and the second lady angry with? The young lady is not even angry after greedy for so many silver coins. And yesterday, it was obviously the eldest young master who stretched out his hand to push the young lady into the water, but he only punished him to kneel down. Kneel down."
Man Nao laughed and said: "You girl, really think that dividing the family is just a matter of dividing the house and living in another life? If you didn't make a big mistake, how could the family be separated if your parents are still alive? Now that the news of the separation of the second house is known to everyone, they will understand that it must be the second house. If you make a big mistake, the second wife will be criticized wherever she goes in the future, and even the official fortunes of the second master and the eldest young master will be affected."
Yutong was surprised: "Is it so serious?"
Agate nodded: "My parents were separated when they were still alive, and I only got a small amount of property. Who wouldn't think more about it? Tai'an is such a big city, but the privacy of the officials' backyards cannot be hidden. Anyone who is interested can find out what the second lady is doing by just asking around. Besides, if the punishment is not severe, how could the General’s Mansion agree to it based on the General’s love for the young lady?”
Yutong: "That's what they deserve. Who allowed them to bully the young lady like this?"
Lin Jinyan: "Okay Yutong, although the second uncle and the others made a big mistake, they also received a big punishment. Since the grandparents have already decided, don't say more."
Seeing that Yutong was obedient and said no more, Lin Jinyan turned to look at Agate.
"Sister Agate, it was my fault for causing you to get scolded yesterday. I will be careful in everything in the future so that Sister Agate doesn't suffer for me."
Agate felt heat rush into her eyes, and she took a deep breath to suppress her emotions.
"Miss, you must not say that. I am a slave. If I fail to protect my master, I will not only be scolded, but also deserved to be beaten and sold out. Yesterday, Miss was in poor health and she knelt down to plead for me and Yutong. My heart is full of gratitude, and I will serve you with all my heart in the future."
These words made Yutong's eyes turn red.
"Miss, I didn't think much of you twice, and you never punished me. I will serve you well in the future, without any second thoughts."
Lin Jinyan smiled and said: "Okay, there is no need to be so solemn, I believe you. There is no need to be cautious, just be the same as before."
Agate nodded heavily: "Slaves are blessed. They serve two masters who are both very kind people."
The three masters and servants laughed and talked, and Manao's attitude towards Lin Jinyan was obviously closer.
Something happened to the Lin family in the past few days, and Master Meng stopped teaching.
After two days of raising her, Lin Jinyan started to look at the accounts with the old lady. Lin Jinyan even managed the palace in her previous life, so this account was no problem.
What's more, she had seen these accounts in her previous life, and she was able to master them very quickly. The old lady couldn't help praising Lin Jinyan for her intelligence.
