Chapter 136: Finding Faults
In fact, normally speaking, Cheng Zhijun would not give out a penny, but this time, I don't know what happened, he just saw a sure brilliance in this girl's eyes.
It made him instinctively want to believe her.
Of course, Cheng Zhijun is not stupid, he knows that even if this grain is not profitable, he will not lose too much, so he will be like this.
It has entered the depths of winter, Qingzhou City is located in the north, and strong winds and heavy snowfall always come unexpectedly.
It was getting colder and colder outside, and Lin Jingxian was also lazy, unwilling to go out and walk around, guarding the brazier all day long, unwilling to leave.
In the past, every winter, the most inferior charcoal was used in the cold bamboo courtyard, and it was going to smoke when it was burned, but this year is different, Lin Jingxian lives here, of course she will not be wronged.
So I bought the best silver charcoal.
This kind of charcoal is not cheap, if it is burned in winter, Lin Jingxian's house will cost fifty taels of silver, which is not a small amount.
However, Lin Jingxian is not bad for this bit of silver, so in this house, silver charcoal has been used.
Even the four big girls such as Cailian also followed suit, and Lin Jingxian also asked them to use this good charcoal fire like herself.
But the others in this Cheng Mansion were not so lucky.
In previous years, although they did not use silver charcoal to burn money, they also used slightly worse black ink charcoal, which is also less smoking, but this year, in order to save silver.
Mrs. Cheng directly ordered, and this house can only use worse charcoal. This charcoal fire burns with a smell of pine oil, so that there is no smoke. The smell of pine oil is also quite good, but staying in such a room all day, no matter how good the smell is, it becomes disgusting.
What's more, pine oil smells too much, and it doesn't smell so good.
Lin Jingxian sent some good charcoal to Mrs. Cheng, but as for the others, she didn't care.
When Lin Jingyue was in the Lin Mansion. She had never suffered like this before, and as a result, she felt that this day was difficult.
At this time, Lin Jingyue was staring at the red brazier in a daze. Listening to the jade kite, she said, "Madam, I heard that Caiyu, the maid of the cold bamboo courtyard, said that their house is burning silver charcoal!" ”
When Lin Jingyue heard this, her face darkened. A few little maids beside Lin Jingyue. It's all more comfortable than her life!
Where could Lin Jingyue hold back this breath, and said with a cold snort: "Let's go and see, didn't she say that she didn't have any money?" There is even silver to buy silver silk charcoal! ”
Lin Jingxian was reading the account book in the house, and Lin Jingyue pushed the door without passing it on.
Lin Jingxian raised her eyebrows and looked up at the visitor.
When Lin Jingyue came in, she brought in an air conditioner, which made Lin Jingxian shiver. Seeing this, Cai Lian hurriedly took a cloak for Lin Jingxian, complaining in her heart. These two young ladies are really true, and they are not afraid to come in like this, so they brought in the cold air and rushed the young lady.
Lin Jingyue's eyebrows swept away, and they fell directly on Lin Jingxian's charcoal basin.
Seeing the charcoal fire with a layer of silver filaments inside, her face turned a little dark, and then she asked aggressively: "Lin Jingxian!" Didn't you say you don't have money? How can you use such silver silk charcoal! Are you really thinking of us as fools! ”
Lin Jingxian glanced at Lin Jingyue mockingly, Lin Jingxian was afraid that she was also infected by Cheng Zhizhi, what good things did she have, and what did it have to do with them?
If there is, they must be used?
But in the end, she belongs to her younger sister and daughter-in-law, and she has to get by on this face.
Just as Lin Jingxian wanted to explain, Mrs. Cheng had already entered the door.
It turned out that when Lin Jingyue came, she notified Mrs. Cheng, no, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law planned to join forces to find trouble with Lin Jingxian.
After Mrs. Cheng came in, she said with a smile: "I didn't expect your cold bamboo courtyard to be very warm." ”
Lin Jingxian heard Mrs. Cheng's ridicule, stood up, and saluted: "I've seen my mother." ”
Mrs. Cheng was angry when she looked at Lin Jingxian's deferential appearance, if she was really submissive, it would be fine, but in fact, her deference was only on the surface, and it was all against the bones!
Nothing made her happy.
But Lin Jingxian, who is biased, does things on the bright side without leakage, so that people can't find any handle at all.
"Mother, you see, my brother and sister use silver charcoal, we didn't buy silver charcoal this year, didn't my brother and sister say that they don't have silver? How can there be silver to buy silver charcoal? Lin Jingyue was swaying and provoking.
Lin Jingyue has always wanted to come to trouble Lin Jingxian, but Mrs. Cheng had already told her that she couldn't really anger Lin Jingxian, so she kept holding back.
This finally had an opportunity, how could Lin Jingyue not make good use of it?
Lin Jingxian glanced at Lin Jingyue, looked at Lin Jingyue's hideous appearance, felt a little funny, and then raised her eyebrows and said: "Why did I come to me today as a sister-in-law, it turned out to be to ask where this silver silk charcoal came from." ”
"In order to avoid any misunderstanding, then I will make it clear, this is my mother who feels sorry for me and specially sent it." Lin Jingxian pulled out the banner of the Wang family.
Lin Jingyue's face turned cold: "Your mother has already given you all the dowry!" Where is the money to buy these! ”
Lin Jingxian raised her eyebrows: "You know how much dowry my mother had back then......
In Lin Jingxian's words, there is already a different meaning and hint.
Lin Jingyue's face was feverish, and she couldn't say how much dowry the Wang family had.
Lin Jingxian snorted coldly: "Since my sister-in-law doesn't know the truth, don't jump to conclusions, if someone hears about it, they will think that I am not filial, I only care about my own enjoyment, and I refuse to contribute to the house." ”
Speaking of this, Lin Jingxian paused for a moment and said, "Or...... I sold this silver silk charcoal, and I gave the silver money to the big house, so I can help if I can. ”
Lin Jingyue's eyes lit up: "Okay! She didn't care about this bit of silver before, but now, she understands what it means to be a good woman who can't cook without rice.
This penny can also be sacrificed to heroes!
Mrs. Cheng said angrily: "Enough! ”
Lin Jingyue heard it, this angry shout was directed at herself, and she looked at Mrs. Cheng inexplicably.
Mrs. Cheng looked at Lin Jingyue coldly, it was really not enough to succeed and more than to lose! Then Lin Jingxian said that she sold the silver silk charcoal, even if she really sold it, can she ask for the money? Let people know that the Wang family gives his daughter a gift to express his mother's love, and he has to contribute it to Cheng Fu! Then Chengfu must not be drowned by the spitting stars?
