Chapter 47: Cornered
Chapter 47 is cornered
Xu Han looked at An's dowry silently, and Lin Liangchen called him, "Daughter-in-law, what's wrong?" ”
Lin Liangchen looked at him funny, "What do you think?" ”
Xu Han twisted his eyebrows, "It's nothing." ”
Lin Liangchen stared at Xu Han for a moment, "Why don't you go back first, I'll come here?" ”
Different from Lin Liangchen's excitement, Xu Han's compassion for Lin Liangchen was in his eyes, and he estimated that Xu Han was uncomfortable.
"Let's go, I'll come here." Lin Liangchen had a begging meaning, which made Xu Han stunned.
Nodding his head and agreeing, Lin Liangchen smiled lightly, and watched Xu Han leave, and as soon as Xu Han left, Lin Liangchen accelerated the speed of the inspection, and was inspecting, when an ancient bottle was thrown to the ground by a girl.
This sound scared Lin Liangchen half to death, and when he turned to look, a little girl knelt next to the bottle, and kept telling Lin Liangchen about her crimes.
"I'm sorry Grandma, the slave didn't mean it, the slave and the maid tripped a little, just"
What to say, Lin Liangchen fully understood, but An's dowry, whether it was for her or Xu Han, was a very precious thing, and it was broken by a girl at this moment, and her brows were furrowed, "Frizzy, what do you look like, give me out." ”
The little girl was frightened, "Grandma Da Shao"
Lin Liangchen's eyes swept away, and the steward who followed Lin Liangchen immediately asked the two little girls to drive people out.
The ancient bottle, Lin Liangchen didn't understand it very much, and waited for the housekeeper to come back. Then he said: "Mother Xu, you can pack up this bottle, turn around and take it out and ask." There are those places in this capital that can restore this bottle. ”
"Yes, Grandma."
In addition to the porcelain, there were countless jade ornaments and agate, and after confirming that there was no major problem, Lin Liangchen asked the little servants to carry them back to Biqin Garden one by one.
Xu is not suitable for moving things today, and the rope of the box was broken when he returned to Biqin Garden. With a bang, the contents of the box fell to the ground, and the contents also fell out.
It just so happened that the Lu family was passing by Biqin Garden. I was startled when I heard the voice, and I turned my head and hurriedly looked at it, and my eyes flickered several times when I looked at the things in this place.
opened her mouth wide and said to Lin Liangchen, "Sister-in-law." You are"
Lin Liangchen scolded the two little guys several times with a dark face. didn't say anything, Lu Shi didn't know the reason, and said more: "Sister-in-law, did you buy those things?" ”
Lu Shi asked worriedly, Lin Liangchen's face became even more ugly, and Lu Shi continued: "Sister-in-law, Brother and Sister Rong, I should say something that I shouldn't say, you these things." Most of them are fake, I think you've been deceived. ”
Out of good intentions. Lu Shi said what he was curious about.
Lin Liangchen glanced at Lu Shi suspiciously, Lu Shi thought that he had said the wrong thing, closed his mouth in a sneer, and explained in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, don't blame me for talking too much, these things are sold in the shop that my mother's family gave me."
Lin Liangchen's eyes became deep, "Really? ”
"I know what I'm selling in my shop." Lin Liangchen sneered a few times in his heart, and after thanking the Lu family, he asked people to carry these things back to the courtyard, and in the afternoon, he asked the shopkeeper with a unique vision and knowledge of the goods to identify all the things in An's dowry.
Sure enough, as Lin Liangchen thought, after so many years of hard work, the Yu family had already changed the priceless dowry of the An family, and there were only a few very inconspicuous things, and the Yu family did not move.
Hearing this, Lin Liangchen didn't slow down for a long time, and told the shopkeeper, "Don't reveal this matter, don't reveal it." ”
"Don't worry, I will rot in my stomach about this matter, and I will never reveal it to outsiders."
After a night, on the second day, Lin Liangchen directly moved all the dowries of An's family to Xu Yingyong's yard, and after putting it down, he felt that people were leaving.
Xu Yingyong came together, and when he saw boxes of things in front of the house, he felt very strange, and called Xiaocao to ask, Xiaocao said: "General Hui, these things were moved by the young grandmother early in the morning." ”
"My daughter-in-law moved here?" Xu Yingyong was confused, "But what did you say?" ”
Xiaocao shook her head, "Grandma left something and left, and didn't say anything." ”
"You go and invite the eldest and youngest grandmother, and I'll ask her."
"Yes, General."
Xiaocao invited Lin Liangchen to come, Lin Liangchen directly handed An's dowry list to Xu Yingyong, he didn't dare to say anything, Xu Yingyong became more and more strange, let people open the cage, check it, and saw that the things inside had been replaced, picked up one of the jade bottles, and went to find Yu's in a hurry.
At this time in the morning, the Yu family was enjoying breakfast, and when Xu Yingyong came in, the Yu family was drinking blood swallow porridge, "Yu family, look at the good things you have done!" ”
As soon as Xu Yingyong rushed in, he directly put the jade bottle in his hand in front of Yu's family, Yu's eyes turned, his eyes looked at Xu Yingyong lightly, and he said slowly: "The general can dine?" ”
moved his eyelids, and instructed Lai Pozi to add dishes and chopsticks to Xu Yingyong, "What to eat, you quickly explain to me, what is going on with this bottle, don't tell me, this jade bottle is like this, I sue you, I'm not easy to fool." Xu Yingyong directly drank Lai Pozi and questioned Yu on the spot.
"The general doesn't eat, Lai's mother, you don't have to add dishes and chopsticks."
Yu's reaction was simply not to put Xu Yingyong in his eyes, the angry Xu Yingying lifted the table on the spot, and the porridge and snacks on the table were sprinkled with Yu's body, Yu's screamed in fright, and stared at Xu Yingyong very angrily, "The general doesn't need breakfast, why is this move now?" ”
"You still ask me why I" Xu Yingyong wanted to do it again.
Lin Liangchen came in, "Old general! ”
As soon as Lin Liangchen appeared, Xu Yingyong took his hand back.
On that side, the Yu family was helped into the house by Lai Pozi to change clothes, and as soon as the Yu family left, Xu Yingyong also muttered and followed in.
Wait for Yu to come out. Yu's face was very unpleasant, and Lin Liangchen estimated that Xu Yingyong had already questioned her, and he didn't beat around the bush. Directly asked about An's dowry, Yu stared at Lin Liangchen without speaking, Lin Liangchen glared back without showing weakness, his eyes were more fierce than Yu's.
The eyes of the two fought in the air, and the Yu family was defeated, and said in a bad tone: "Nian'an's daughter-in-law, do you suspect that I will replace Nian'an's dowry?" ”
Lin Liangchen raised his eyebrows, "I didn't say that." I just want to know, where did my mother-in-law's dowry go, as far as I know. Since my mother-in-law passed away, there has been no theft or fire in the house, since there has never been a incident. Why are these dowries gone? And all from good things to bad products? ”
Hearing Lin Liangchen's words, Yu's face was ugly, and his face turned blue and red for a while.
Secretly hummed in his heart Lin Liangchen was shrewd, scolded for a while, and forced himself to hold up his spirit and said: "I have those things"
"What are you, Yu, don't forget, you promised me at the beginning. If it weren't for your assurance, I would have fallen out with Lu Guogong. Don't let him take the dowry? ”
Xu Yingyong opened his mouth impulsively, and Lin Liangchen stared at Xu Yingyong several times meaningfully, it turned out, but it was because of the Yu family, so the late Lu Guogong did not get the dowry of the An family.
Xu Yingying reacted, and knew that he had said something terrible in front of Lin Liangchen, and opened his mouth, "Daughter-in-law, listen to me, this matter is definitely not what I just said." ”
Yu sneered, "The general is really courageous, he did things by himself, and now he doesn't dare to admit it." ”
Xu Yingyong was furious, "You shut up for me." ”
Yu pursed his lips and didn't speak, Xu Yingyong explained to Lin Liangchen: "What I said just now, daughter-in-law, don't tell Nian An." ”
Lin Liangchen was silent, "Madam, you haven't given me an explanation yet." ”
Yu secretly complained, but his face pretended to be calm, "Nian'an's daughter-in-law, what do you want?" Nian Anniang's dowry, I really haven't touched it, if you don't believe it, you find someone to check"
Lin Liangchen moved his eyebrows, took out a booklet in his sleeve, and said slowly, "In the third year of Longyi in the Tianjin Dynasty, on the fifth day of the seventh month, Ru Fangzhai received a famous painting, worth 10,000 taels, and on July 20 of the same year, Ru Fangzhai received it."
There are all kinds of information, such information, Lin Liangchen read no less than ten, and the more Xu Yingying listened, the green tendons on his face were about to burst out.
Yu's lips began to tremble, if he hadn't tried to restrain his feelings, I am afraid that he would have gone away by this time.
Lin Liangchen didn't seem to see the ugliness of the two of them, and read for half an hour, and then finished reading the booklet in his hand, "Madame, is there anything else to say?" According to Ru Fangzhai's shopkeeper's recollection, over the years, it has been sold by one person, Lai's mother, am I right? ”
Lin Liangchen's eyes like a snake and scorpion, like an invisible big hand, tightly choked Lai Pozi's throat, making Lai Pozi unable to say a word.
"Me"
"Mother Lai doesn't have to be in a hurry to justify, and Mrs. don't be in a hurry to get angry, it's a family after all, and I won't poke this thing out, after all, it's not good for my own reputation to spread it, but these dowries from my mother-in-law" Lin Liangchen's eyes rolled, "I don't know Madame, when will we give us husband and wife?" ”
Before Yu could speak, Lin Liangchen muttered to himself: "I don't know, what happened to the shops that Madam helped my mother-in-law keep."
"Madam, if you can, bother you, give me the deed of my mother-in-law's property, and after I have dealt with those stewards, I will ask Madame again for the dowry and the money earned by the shop in the past twenty years."
With a snort, Yu heard the sound of himself vomiting blood.
Seeing that Lin Liangchen was smiling so harmlessly now, the Yu family had the intention of killing Lin Liangchen.
Xu Yingyong glanced at Lin Liangchen worriedly, and looked at the Yu family, "Madam~"
Not long after Xu Yingyong finished screaming, Yu's body shook and fell, and a cry for help instantly sounded in the room.
(PS: Corrected the mistake, the Yu family changed it with the time of An's dowry, it was the fifth year of Longyi, and it happened to be shortly after the Yu family married into the heroic general's mansion.) )
Everyone including Xu Yingyong was nervously surrounded, Lin Liangchen looked up at the Yu family who was surrounded by people, did not squeak, and silently took back the booklet just now.
Mrs. Lai didn't wake up the Yu family, turned her head and said to Lin Liangchen with red eyes: "Grandma, mother-in-law, I respect you." But you can't go too far, and you actually make Madame angry."
Lin Liangchen sneered and glanced at Lai Pozi. Suddenly, Yu Shi, who was half-leaning on the top of the soft collapse, walked over.
"Grandma, what do you want to do?" Lai Pozi was in front of the Yu family.
At this time, Xu Yingyong also called: "Daughter-in-law"
Lin Liangchen was still silent, crossed Lai Pozi, stared at the Yu family several times, stretched out his hand, and was under everyone's noses. pressed on a certain place on Yu's body, and Yu immediately jumped up.
That angry look, I don't say anything. I was dizzy just now.
Xu Yingyong's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Yu, you actually pretended to be dizzy?" ”
Xu Yingyong and the Yu family have been married for so many years, but they didn't expect it. One day. Yu will faint because of shame and anger.
Yu's mind turned white, and at this time, Yu's right-hand man invited the doctor in the house in a hurry, and he was very puzzled to see that Yu's had nothing to do.
"What the hell is going on?"
Xu Yingyong shouted loudly, "It's nothing, you can go down." ”
The house doctor sighed a few times and left with the medicine box on his back.
"Is Madame better?" Xu Yingyong paused. Lin Liangchen began to look at Yu with a smile and asked.
Yu Shi turned around and said lightly: "It's better." But I was a little dizzy. ”
"Really? So in order not to disturb Madame's rest, Madame still gave me my mother-in-law's more than a dozen shop deeds and account books, right? Lin Liangchen stretched out his hand with a smile.
"Ma'am?" Xu Yingyong followed and spoke.
Yu Shi was very helpless, his eyes closed, "Mother Lai, take out the things." ”
There is a knife both horizontally and vertically, and the Yu family wants to be a little more happy.
"Madam" Lai Pozi hesitated for a moment.
"Go quickly, Nian'an's daughter-in-law is still waiting." Yu's face was instantly stern, and the peony flower's jacket was even more noble.
"Yes"
After getting the deed of more than a dozen shops, Lin Liangchen thanked him very happily, and then called the girl to move the accounts kept by the Yu family.
As soon as Lin Liangchen left, Xu Yingying said in a vicissitudes of tone: "I didn't expect you to do this." ”
In his heart, Xu Yingyong still regretted a little, he knew that there would be such a scene, Xu Yingyong would definitely not let the Yu family take care of An's dowry.
Back then, in addition to the Yu family saying that he would take care of it, Xu Yingying also thought about An's, this An's thing, naturally he didn't want to be taken away, because of this matter, how many times did Yu's want to move into Xu An's Biqin Garden, but Xu Yingyong let go, Yu had to deign and rebuild a courtyard according to the style of Biqin Garden.
Yu's eyes reddened, "Are you willing to do this?" If it weren't for this big family, I would have made it like this? ”
Xu Yingying roared: "It's not that you are not doing it well, don't talk about Nian'an and his mother, I sue you Yu, these are two different things." ”
Xu Yingying, who was overly angry, almost didn't say, you see Liangchen, a woman from the countryside, this head is smarter than the Yu family, and without anyone's help, not only does the family business run so big, but even the money for the house is earned by Lin Liangchen.
As for the Yu family, that is a blind toss, there are so many feeds in the house, not only did not operate well, but more and more people were not welcomed.
Yu sneered a few times, "After marrying you for so many years, I thought you would be biased towards me, but I didn't expect it to be like this." ”
Yu's sigh was quite self-deprecating, and the other meaning was that Xu Yingyong favored An's rather than Yu's.
Xu Yingyong's face was ugly, "Don't talk about these things, why do you want to change Nian'an's dowry, is it not enough for you to toss Nian'an's dowry with such a big business in the General's Mansion, so you are worried about Nian'an's dowry?"
You said again and again that you and Nian An are best friends, but now it seems? Hmph~"
Xu Yingyong estimated that whatever touching words he said at the beginning were all fake, and he was thinking about An's dowry to be true.
Yu Shizhen's old face turned blue and purple, and he glared at Xu Yingyong without speaking, Xu Yingying saw that he was right, and he sneered a few times, "You will exchange Nian'an's dowry by yourself, otherwise it will be difficult to end at that time." ”
Even if this was his last reminder to the Yu family.
What kind of character Lin Liangchen is, Xu Yingyong doesn't know, but judging from his observation and getting along these days, this daughter-in-law's personality is very stubborn, and she is very thoughtful in her words and actions, and her thoughtfulness makes people feel a little scared.
If it really makes trouble, it will definitely be the Yu family's loss.
At that time, the Taishi Mansion is afraid that it will be embarrassed
Yu's eyes turned red. "Don't bother the general about this, I have my own opinions."
Gritting his teeth, he thought it was quite heavy, and Xu Yingying snorted twice. Flicked his sleeves and left.
As soon as Xu Yingyong left, Lai Pozi said: "Madam, they are all young grandmothers who are ignorant, and they are unexpectedly"
"Don't talk about it, her little ability won't make a big difference to me." A hint of cruelty flashed in Yu's eyes, "Do you really think that the little hooves in the countryside can scare me?" ”
Yu has been through so many years. It's not scary.
If you want her to return the dowry, just think about it, I really want to get it. Scold~
Yu's confident appearance relieved Mrs. Lai, and in Biqin Garden, Lin Liangchen went back to have breakfast and told Xu Han about the dowry. Xu Hanqi almost didn't go to the Yu family to fight alone. Lin Liangchen finally persuaded him, Xu Han was really determined, and he wanted to settle An's dowry with Lin Liangchen, otherwise it would be cheaper for Yu's, Xu Han would not be willing no matter what.
"Xianggong, what do you want to do?"
"I'll go say hello to the barracks in a while, and then I'll join you to find out what moths will come out of this dowry." Xu Han didn't believe it. The Yu clan will be rampant to that point.
Lin Liangchen pursed his lips, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
Yu's Ah, Yu's. This is your own death, no one else is to blame, if you want to blame, you are too greedy, you said that you would keep An's dowry, but behind the scenes, An's dowry was all changed, so that An's well-deserved dowry became an empty shell.
This kind of thing, put in the capital, I am afraid that only the Yu family can do it.
After breakfast, Xu Han really went to the barracks, while Lin Liangchen directly took the deed and brought a large group of people to check the old accounts of An's shops in the past 20 years.
Of course, these stewards arranged by the Yu family will naturally not listen to Lin Liangchen's orders, and take out the account book without hesitation, if one does not take it, the other will naturally not be good-natured and wait to die, before going to borrow two or more guards from Wang Shizi, Lin Liangchen gave an order, and several guards drove out all the guests in the store at once, and took out the internal rectification that Lin Liangchen had prepared a long time ago, and posted the notice of the recent closure outside.
Let ten people stay outside and not let people make a fuss.
With a bang, the door of the shop was closed, and Lin Liangchen sat on the chair and drank tea.
"Shopkeeper He, tell me, do you take this account book?"
"Young Grandma Lin, I said, I won't give this account book, besides, if you want to give it, it's also for Mrs., you"
"What am I?" Lin Liangchen rolled his eyes and took out the deed of the shop, "Shopkeeper, you have to take a good look, whose hand is this deed now, since it is in my place, then, you naturally want to listen to me, but if you don't want to give it, then I can only send you to the official." ”
When Shopkeeper He hesitated to give it, Lin Liangchen waved his hand, and several guards found the account book in the shop, and a few guards recorded the things in the store.
The distribution of the work is very clear.
But everything that has been recorded is labeled by the guards, and when the shopkeeper saw Lin Liangchen like this, he wanted to know that she was not joking, and secretly gave the guy a look, wanting the guy to ask for help, Lin Liangchen's eyes narrowed, "This little brother, where do you want to go?" ”
The young man in the store was frightened by Lin Liangchen's voice, and pretended to be calm: "I didn't go anywhere, I just wanted to go out to a thatched house." ”
"Hold on."
"Huh?"
Lin Liangchen moved his eyelids, and then said lightly: "I said hold back, if you really want to go to the thatched house, it's not impossible, just solve it here." ”
Lin Liangchen's words, not only was Shopkeeper He surprised, but this little guy was the same, he was almost not stupid.
He stammered: "Da Young Grandma, isn't this okay?" ”
"There's nothing bad about it, I'll avoid it." The meaning of the words was obviously that he didn't want the young man to leave, the shopkeeper He turned pale, and closed his eyes very unfortunately, the little man was hit by Lin Liangchen, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything about the thatched house.
Without the full cooperation of Shopkeeper He, Lin Liangchen just got the accounts of recent years, "Shopkeeper He? What else do you have to say? Do you take it now, or will I send you to see an official? ”
"I know the choice of Shopkeeper He, come here, send Shopkeeper He to the yamen, and tell the people in the yamen to entertain and entertain Shopkeeper He"
"What did you say?" Yu slapped, the cup containing the tea jumped violently, the hot tea let the outside flow, and the tea flowed all over the table.
The girl was afraid of burning Yu's family, so she quickly rescued Yu's hand.
"Listening to the doorkeeper in the front yard, the young grandmother called the guards of Prince An and went to check the shop in a hurry." Lai Pozi was afraid that the Yu family would not hear clearly, so she said it again.
"This Lin clan is really getting more and more arrogant, I didn't care about it for a while, and I was arrogant to this point!" It's just arrogant, and she borrowed a guard from Wang Shizi, who is she in this Lin family? also borrowed guards from the prince of An
What the hell is going on?
"No, listening to the people at the front door, the young grandmother's face is ugly." Lai Pozi whispered.
Yu snorted coldly, "She thinks I'm not bad enough, so she wants to find something to do for me, and she really thinks she can push me into a corner?" ”
Even if Lin Liangchen is forcing her to death, it depends on whether she is qualified enough. (To be continued......) (To be continued......)
