Chapter 274: Stingy Master

Since the return of Yongji Temple, Linglong's treatment in the house has risen sharply, she used to go to serve Mrs. Jin every morning to freshen up, and now Mrs. Jin not only exempted her from morning and dusk, but also invited the female gentleman to teach her Danqing,

This granddaughter, not only was summoned and rewarded by the queen, but even the master of Zhijue, who had been away from the world for many years, praised her, didn't she just not understand Danqing? The Jin family has money, and if you have money, you can't believe that you can't hire a good gentleman, in the opinion of Mrs. Jin, as long as you have money, you can make your granddaughter go from not knowing to proficient.

Since Yan's grandmother Chen was pregnant, Linglong fell ill again, and she didn't go to Dongfu for some days. Now I have to study Danqing with the female gentleman all day long, and I have no chance to go out.

In the past, she went to Sweetwater Lane, or secretly went out of the city to visit her mother, all under the banner of going to Dongfu, but now she has no chance at all.

On that day, the female gentleman had something at home and could not come to teach her, so she slipped out of the house under the pretext of visiting the Chen family in Dongfu.

She went to Sweet Water Lane first, handed over the few spring clothes and tonic herbs she had made for her mother to Li Sheng, and asked him to go out of the city and send them to Zhuangzi.

She asked about Xinbo's shop again, and her second cousin Jin Zihuan helped her take a fancy to a silk Zhuangzi, the owner of the shop lost his son in his old age, and no one inherited the family business, and he was also disheartened, so he wanted to sell the shop and go back to his hometown to enjoy his old age. Linglong had already asked Jin Zihuan to help her pay attention, so when she heard that this silk village was going to be sold, Jin Zihuan thought of Linglong, the silk village is a women's business, and Linglong will marry in the future and use this shop to make some private money, and her husband will not say anything if she knows it, and this shop is not big, and it is only two thousand taels of silver if the goods are dished together.

At that time, Linglong had just bought the house on Junyi Street, and she was short of money, so she really couldn't get the two thousand taels.

Jin Zihuan simply took out 2,000 taels by himself and put it on Linglong, so that she could make money and pay it back in installments.

When Shi Er left, he returned 7,000 taels to Linglong, and Linglong took the silver ticket and immediately returned the 2,000 taels to Jin Zihuan.

There is no division in Dongfuli. These two thousand taels are Jin Zihuan's private money, and she can't let her second cousin suffer.

It was the Chinese New Year, and the dental shop was also closed, and Linglong was sick for a few days. By the time the silk village was officially bought and all the paperwork and goods were handed over, it was already the beginning of February.

Linglong handed over the shop to Xinbo to take care of, and it was scheduled to officially open at the end of March.

She was in a hurry to see Xinbo, just to ask about the shop.

Xin Bo smiled and said, "Although this shop is not big. But the original owner has also done more than ten years, and now the shop has not yet opened, there are some maids in the house who came to inquire, Uncle Yan of Dongfu just came from Suzhou A batch of goods, a few days ago has been sent a batch of colors, are not yet in the capital. ”

Linglong put her mind at ease when she listened, and when she turned around, she saw Shuangxi sticking her head out to poke her brain, as if she had something to say.

Double Happiness is only ten years old and looks like a tiger. Since Miss Fifth asked him to walk around the city more often and pay attention to the wind outside, he has not been in Sweetwater Lane all day, and he just hasn't gone out today.

Linglong beckoned to him, let him in, and asked, "What did you inquire about?" ”

Shuangxi touched the back of his head, as if he was struggling with whether to say it or not.

Linglong pretended not to see it, and said to him: "It's inconvenient for me to come here for a while, if you don't say it, I'll leave." ”

Seeing that Miss Five seemed to be angry. Shuangxi was in a hurry: "No, no, Shuangxi wants to say." ”

Linglong grimaced and said lightly: "Then you can say it." ”

Shuangxi blushed and was a little embarrassed: "It's the two ladies who came from Chaoyang Hutong that day." I came across it again later. ”

It was Double Happiness who went to Chaoyang Hutong to invite people, and the two ladies who came with him were Fusu and the beautiful woman.

Linglong was surprised and delighted, she really didn't read it wrong that day, it was the woman who appeared on the street of Dengshi, and Fusu was also in the capital, which means that the master is back? "These two ladies are not together. I didn't see it at the same time, either. That day, I went to Chaoyang Hutong again, and saw a lady and a man coming out of Chaoyang Hutong, and I recognized the lady at a glance. β€œ

Linglong frowned: "Which lady, what kind of man is the man with her, is it the one who was injured that day?" ”

"It's the very beautiful lady who helped the injured uncle into the carriage. But the man is not an injured uncle, he is a strange man. ”

He met the woman with murderous intent.

But who is the weird man?

"What's weird, tell me about it."

Shuangxi scratched the back of his head again: "I can't say how strange it is, it's just, he looks like a woman, but he's a man." ”

Like a woman and like a man?

Hermaphrodite?

Eunuch?

Linglong asked again: "The other lady, when did you meet and who is she with?" ”

"It's also there, a particularly beautiful lady and a man like a woman walked out of Chaoyang Hutong, walked in front of a sedan chair, and a person came out of the sedan chair, it was the lady who rode back with Miss Five."

Linglong's face was slightly red with excitement, and she asked urgently: "Then where did they go, did you see it?" ”

Shuangxi's eyebrows and eyes wrinkled together, and he cried with a sad face: "I didn't see it, they saw me, and the lady in the sedan chair gave me a bag of candy and asked me not to sue the master." ”

Fortunately, he did a lot of ideological struggle, and he still told Miss SΓΉ Fifth about it.

Although the bag of sugar is delicious, if you don't tell the truth to Miss Five, you will definitely get tooth decay.

Linglong is frustrated, Master doesn't want to see her!

Her good mood was all gone, and she even began to doubt her character.

She was not yet thirteen years old, but she was already disliked by her master.

She thought about it carefully, except for recovering seven thousand taels of silver in disguise, she didn't seem to have anything to dislike her master.

Master, this person is too stingy, I didn't ask you for money openly, you took the initiative to give it to me.

Besides, you originally earned this money from me, and you will be reluctant to spit out the extra money.

You are really reluctant, so you can tell me to your face, what is this, as if our master and apprentice have a big grudge.

In short, Linglong is quite angry.

Leaving Sweetwater Lane, she came to Dongfu to visit the pregnant Chen.

Chen's pregnancy was not stable, and he leaned on the pillow with a pale face, and when he saw Linglong, he had a smile on his face.

There was also a woman in the house, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, very white, and wearing two jade gourds and red gold hairpins on her head.

Chen introduced, and Linglong learned that this was Chen's sister-in-law Du Shi, and her husband was Shu Jishi, who was currently in Hanlin Academy.

Linglong and Du Shi saw each other, and sat down for a while, Du Shi took his leave, and Chen's body was inconvenient, so he asked the big girl Cuiliu to send Du Shi away.

When Du was gone, Chen sighed, his pale face full of sorrow.

Linglong brought the sweet ginger and sour plum of Caizhitang, a time-honored brand in Beijing, to Chen's family, and she asked Chen's maid Anliu to make hot tea with sweet ginger and serve it, and Chen drank two sips, and his face was bloody.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you, are you not feeling well?" Linglong asked with concern.

Chen sighed again, gently held Linglong's hand, and looked at her with pity: "If the second sister is as sensible as you, how good it would be, and my brother will not want to let it go." "Release? How so? Linglong was taken aback.

Chen's second sister is Chen Feng, she has been selected, and after the twelve princes and Gu Yanran get married, she will marry into the prince's mansion as a concubine.

One-one-one-one
