Chapter 565: Threat
For Lin Yu, the Yuan family's withdrawal from relatives is not particularly surprising news, and it is even more so for others, in the eyes of outsiders, since there is no formal marriage, with Yin Susu's situation, the Yuan family's actions are quite understandable.
Therefore, in the case that the parties concerned have deliberately avoided, even if some people know the Tao, it has not caused any waves, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, Yin Susu is already yesterday's yellow flower, not worth mentioning. Although Lin Yu's Xiaobai was inevitably a little dissatisfied, everyone was a reasonable person after all, so nothing happened again.
The Yuan family was also afraid of long nights and dreams, so they decided the family affairs before the wax moon. When Lin Yu got the news, he was looking at the New Year's gift list and the account book at the end of the year, and he just smiled. The end of the year is busy, how can you have so much time to worry about these? However, there is good news recently that makes her feel good, Yin Susu's physical condition has improved significantly, maybe she will be able to wake up before the year, and Lin Yuke will be much more relaxed by then.
Thinking of this, her mood improved a lot, grabbed the account book and began to read, but this was the income of the flowers and plants that people had planted in other places before, but she didn't expect that in addition to providing raw materials to Huaxinfang and Qingqing's Xiangfang for use, there were more than 12,000 taels of silver in addition. Of course, compared to the business benefits, this seems to be a bit inadequate.
However, in this year, the income of the simple field is actually very low, normally speaking, ten hectares of medium land, it is good to have a thousand taels of income, more than 50 hectares of land to plant crops is also 5,000 taels, and now the flowers planted in addition to their own business use, can have this income can be said to be very considerable. Because this is the income of the raw materials that are settled separately from the flowering letter shop. The settlement of raw materials on the Huaxinfang side will cost more than 10,000 taels, and the amount of Qingqing will be less, but there will be three or four thousand taels.
Do you want to expand production in the coming year? Lin Yu was a little undecided. You must know that things such as flowers and herbs in Ludao, although the income is high, but it also needs to be served more and more carefully, although it is not a potted plant for sale, but it is still more difficult to take care of than the crops. Whether you can find enough manpower is a problem, the flowers are delicate, but it depends on the time. If there is heavy rain during the flowering season, these flowers and grasses will not be harvested.
Therefore, Lin Yu was still hesitating, and after taking a sip of tea, he felt that he still had to think again. Someone came in over there to report, "County Lord, the Qi Wangfu sent someone to send something over." ”
The people who came were two grandmothers and two maids, and the things they gave were not particularly valuable. One is that there is a little jewelry in the wax moon, and there are new palace flowers. So someone sent it over, and a few fresh fruits. In this year, the transportation is inconvenient, and there is no large-scale greenhouse farming, and fresh fruits are rare in winter, and this time the Qi Wangfu sent fruits from the south.
"There is still something to ask the county lord to come over, the slave maid is here to report the good news, the third lady gave birth to a fat boy last night, the mother and son are safe to wash the three county lords, please be sure to go over." Mama laughed.
"It's a great event. How could I not have gone over. Lin Yu knew that he was talking about his nominal third sister-in-law, and said with a smile. asked someone to take the reward for Mama, and said. "It seems that the third sister-in-law I remember is a little later?"
"No, it's a month in advance, but since it's the safety of the mother and child, it's also a blessing." Mama accepted the reward, didn't bother Lin Yu, and left after a few words.
Lin Yu held his cheeks and smiled, "Fortunately, I prepared a little in advance, otherwise I would have been caught off guard." ”
It stands to reason that Lin Yu is not out of the cabinet, and he only needs to prepare a little gift for such a thing as his brother-in-law's sister-in-law giving birth to a child, but Lin Yu is now the county lord and lives another life, although the gift does not need to be too expensive, nor can it be too thin. After this preparation, it is another one or two hundred taels, and this is not counting the full moon ceremony.
"It's a lot to spend money at the end of the year." Xiaobai walked in, obviously heard about it, glanced at the list that Lin Yu asked someone to prepare, and suddenly laughed, "If you want to say that in this matter, we can only enter and not leave, and we will lose a lot." ”
"So what's the solution?" Could it be that a child can still pop up now?
Xiaobai glanced at Lin Yu, a little helpless, this girl was really stunned, "I said when will we get married?" ”
"Why did you suddenly get into our ......" Lin Yu reacted halfway through his words, speaking of which, this marriage has been engaged for a long time, and now there is no obstacle, it is indeed time to consider this issue.
"This, you have to wait for your uncle and aunt to come back, and you have to choose an auspicious day to prepare a dowry." Lin Yu didn't squirm, thought about it and said, "Actually, I don't have many opinions. ”
Her body is now more than seventeen years old, she is now the county lord, preparing for a marriage, and now when there is nothing, it will take half a year to get ready, and she can only get married after she is a proper adult, and it will not affect her body.
"Then it's not allowed to be delayed any longer." Xiaobai glanced at Lin Yu and sighed, "Don't talk about the marriage between my sister and Sister Qingqing, our family affair can be regarded as a twist and turn." ”
"Don't think too much about it, help me see what's wrong with this ledger." Lin Yu finally grabbed a strong man, and immediately pushed a large pile of ledgers to Xiaobai, and stood up by himself, "I'm going to the garden to walk and breathe." ”
"Hey, I just came back from a long trip outside!" Xiaobai looked at the account book, then looked at Lin Yu's unceremonious back, and shouted in the back.
Lin Yu didn't look back, but waved his hand and smiled, "It's just time to gather for work and rest and sit down to rest." Besides, you are a person who is going to get married, so you naturally have to take on the responsibility of supporting your family. ”
"I don't know at all that I feel distressed." Although Xiaobai complained, he was actually not angry, and after muttering a few sentences, he looked at the account book resignedly. It seems that the business is not good when it gets bigger, and at the end of each year, it takes a lot of time just to look at the account books.
In fact, Lin Yu went to the garden, there was really something wrong, she entered the garden warm pavilion, and there was a woman dressed as a ring, waiting for her.
"What's the matter with me?" Lin Yu looked at the woman in front of him and said a little carelessly.
"Our master Xu said that he wants the county lord to support her with some money." That girl ring is Xu Xiao's personal ring, after staying in the palace for a few days, she has learned to be pretentious.
Lin Yu frowned slightly, didn't have a seizure, and said lightly, "How much?" ”
"A number." Yahuan shook her fingers and said very rudely.
"A thousand taels?" If it is this amount of money, it is not that it cannot be given, but Xu Xiao is afraid that it will not be so peaceful.
"A thousand taels? Does the county lord think that the palace is outside? What is 1,000 taels enough? Yahuan's voice was a little harsh, but then she reacted again and softened her voice. County Lord, the palace is not as big as the outside, the cost is big, and a thousand taels is really not enough to do anything. ”
Lin Yu laughed, "It's not that I can't take out 10,000 taels, but I'm quite curious, what does Xu Xiao want to do?" ”
was looked at by those eyes that seemed to have seen everything, and Yahuan couldn't help but sneer, "It's just a competition for favor, since you have thought of a way to send my master into the palace, how can you not ask?" ”
Lin Yu found those girls originally to attract Yu Wencheng's attention so that he could escape, but not to support a spokesperson in the palace. It's just that I didn't expect things to be resolved so smoothly, so I didn't take this matter to heart anymore. It's just that she still has some reluctance, after all, she is using them. Even if Xu Xiao is ambitious, she actually uses the ladder on her side to climb up, and if she can, she will help her.
It's just 10,000 taels of silver, which is too big to open her mouth, if Lin Yu agrees, she will definitely become her ATM. Putting aside Yin Susu's huge family wealth, her own foundation is still relatively shallow. Although the income continues to increase in a blowout this year, the income of a year is only a little more than 500,000 taels, and some of the expenses are still spent on buying some things and personal contacts, and the net silver that can be left after the last is not less than 350,000 taels, and I want to buy some shops and fields.
This is also because of her simple population and small expenses, and even most of the slaves she uses now are still from the Yin family, and they are paid from Yin Susu's account. Of course, Lin Yu didn't take advantage of Yin Susu, Lin Yu helped Yin Susu take care of the family business, and if Yin Susu wanted to pay her a salary, it would not be a small amount. Lin Yu also joked that it was no wonder that Yin Susu gave a generous gift on her birthday, and her feelings were to help her take care of her family's salary.
Lin Yu is just an empty county lord, no relatives, the family population is small, and he is unmarried, and he doesn't need to be too expensive to get into the best gifts, and he still has this expense a year, if it is those royal nobles, etc., even if the income is much higher than her, the population is large, and the expenses are large, there may not be much balance in a year. If you are not good at management and like luxury, it is not uncommon for the Jia family to have a deficit in the Dream of Red Mansions.
Therefore, 10,000 taels can't be given, but whether to give this money or not, how much to give, Lin Yu is still a little hesitant, if she really ignores it, she is still a little ruthless, and since Xu Xiao has entered the palace, she is afraid that she will fight against Mi En, and she will really make enemies and cause trouble for herself. Xu Xiao has no bad deeds now, and there is no reason to dispose of her, right?
It's just that Lin Yu's silence became indifferent in the eyes of that girl, and he was angry at that time, so he said a little desperately, "The county lord is not afraid that the emperor knows that it is you who wants to send Xu Cairen into the palace?" ”
Lin Yu was still hesitating, but when he heard that this maid dared to threaten herself, her face changed, and her usual smile disappeared, "What a bold man, she actually threatened me." If Xu Xiao wants to say it, just say it! Am I still scared? ”
Yahuan still retorted, Lin Yu sneered, "Do you really think you have a big face?" It's just that I'm tired of reading the list, and I'm just trying to find someone to talk to, otherwise the steward would have sent you away! (To be continued......)
