Chapter 51: Speaking of Bribery
In the early morning of the next day, Shu Wangjin got into the carriage in light clothes, because he often went out, so Master Shu and Mrs. Shu did not come to see him off, Shu Zhou cleaned up the things on the carriage and then got into the carriage that Shu Wangjin was riding.
"Young master, it's all taken care of." Shu Zhou only returned to Shu's house late at night last night, and as soon as he came back, he was busy with various affairs, and he was busy until he was ugly, even then he was full of energy.
Shu Wangjin was closing his eyes and thinking deeply, and when he saw this, he just nodded slightly and did not speak.
Shu Zhou glanced back several times, and there was no shadow of Lin Mei in these carriages, which meant that she didn't follow, but even so, then Lin Mei should also come to see her off, how could she not see her?
"Young Master, where is Miss Lin?" Shu Zhou stole a glance at Shu Wangjin's angry face, and hesitated for a long time before asking.
"Naturally, she stayed in the capital." Shu Wangjin opened his eyes, opened the curtain, glanced at the tall courtyard wall of Shu Mansion, and put it down again.
"Miss Liulin is alone in the capital?" Shu Zhou asked in surprise, realizing that his voice was a little too loud, so he lowered his voice and said, "Young master, let's go to Los Angeles, the journey back and forth will take more than two months, not to mention that we have to stay in Los Angeles for more than ten days, so in this way, wouldn't Miss Lin have to stay here alone for three or four months?" ”
Shu Zhou's worries are not unreasonable, rather than letting Lin Mei stay in the capital alone, it is better to send her back to Linshan County by the way, otherwise in these three months, I don't know how Mrs. Shu "tortured" Lin Mei......
Shu Wangjin still looked like an old god, and she was not worried about Lin Mei's fate in the slightest, "This little thing, Miss Lin will definitely handle it." ”
Shu Zhou looked at Shu Wangjin curiously, not knowing what Shu Wangjin had done in the past few days in his absence.
When Lin Mei slept and woke up naturally, Shu Wangjin had been gone for more than an hour, she rubbed her sleepy eyes, her face was full of indifference, and she didn't care about Shu Wangjin's going or staying.
"Miss Lin doesn't care about the whereabouts of the eldest young master?" Although Qingying had a cold face, she still couldn't help her gossip.
"It's not ...... at all" Lin Mei washed her face by herself, her mouth full of resentment, "He took Suzhou to Los Angeles in style, and left me alone in the capital to help him clean up the mess, so ...... I didn't send him off early this morning, so as not to block my heart! ”
Isn't it really because of oversleeping?
Qingying looked up at the rising sun outside the window, buried her head silently, and said no more.
"Miss Lin, do you want to throw away this red maple leaf?"
After Qingying packed up the things in the dormitory, she suddenly found that there was a fiery red maple leaf lying quietly on the embroidery table, she picked up the maple leaf, looked around, and there was no such red maple tree in the curtain house, and she didn't know where it floated in.
Lin Mei glanced at it unintentionally, her expression changed, she quickly ran over and took the red maple leaf from Qingying's hand, touched it a few times with great care, and said with a serious face, "This is Shu Wangjin asked Shu Zhou to help me take it from the maple forest next to my house, I haven't seen it for a few days, I didn't expect the maple leaf forest to be so red." ”
Qingying saw that Lin Mei's eyes were quite lonely, and nodded consciously, in her spare time, she would also think of the flowers and trees in the general's mansion in the past, but now it has long become someone else's mansion.
Lin Mei sandwiched the fiery red maple leaf into the "Thousand Character Text" on the side, and smiled again, "Let's go find Yufei later, and then we will go to the warehouse where the medicinal materials are stored together to have a look, although ...... Shu Wangjin said that he had already arranged it for me, but it was better to go and have a look......
Qingying suddenly realized, no wonder Shu Wangjin went to Los Angeles so relieved, it turned out that the back road had already been arranged for Lin Mei, and also, a strict person like Shu Wangjin would not let himself make any mistakes no matter what.
"Hmm...... This one is up to you. Lin Mei seemed to think of something again, and took out a few taels of broken silver from a small square wooden box on the dresser and gave it to her," Yu Fei said, in such a high-walled compound, no matter what you do, you have to reward the broken silver. "Although...... She was very distressed about these few taels of silver, you know, if this is in Linshan County, but she has several months of pocket money!
The last time Liu Yufei met Lin Mei, he taught her a lot of things, including the amount of money that various masters reward their subordinates.
Qingying looked at Lin Mei in surprise, as if she couldn't believe that these words were what she said.
"I can't help it, I'm already eating white food in Shufu, I can't let those servants hate me too......" Lin Mei looked at the few taels of silver in Qingying's hand in a tangled manner, her face full of distress.
Qingying glanced at Lin Mei lightly, and didn't say much, just took these taels of silver and went to the back kitchen.
When the time comes...... Give it back to Shu Wangjin.
Qingying walked out of the curtain house, suddenly felt funny, and glanced at the direction of the curtain house, with a hint of pleasure in her expression.
It's really pitiful, and he was still kept in the dark by Shu Wangjin......
In the entire Shu family, is there any change that Shu Wangjin doesn't know? Those maidservants who have different intentions, I'm afraid that Shu Wangjin has already figured out their bottom line, and they have to wait for Lin Mei to bribe? What's more, the back kitchen is full of Shu Wangjin's people, otherwise Lin Mei still wants to eat the high-quality blue crab and osmanthus dew from Poyang Lake these days? It's just wishful thinking!
"Miss Qingying, please stay ......"
Qingying looked back and saw that it was Han Zhao who was blamed by Master Shu for her poor guarding, she raised her eyebrows suspiciously, wondering why Han Zhao was still here.
"Miss Qingying, I don't know where Miss Lin lives?" Han Zhao smiled with a dog-legged smile on his face, his face full of covetousness.
If you want to talk about appearance, Qingying is better than Qingyan Qingyu sisters, but she has always been cold and never smiles at people, if she hadn't been on an errand in Shu Wangjin's yard, I'm afraid that she would have been beaten out of the house a long time ago.
"You ask Miss Lin where she lives?" Qing Ying didn't care about the lust in Han Zhao's eyes, and replied coldly.
"This ...... The little caretaker is not effective, and now he wants to make meritorious contributions and have a good relationship with Miss Lin. Han Zhao took out the delicate jewelry box that had been hidden in his sleeve, and said with a smile, "This is a piece of mutton fat white jade from my uncle's shop, and the small one is good to see that the jade material is good, so I want to borrow flowers to offer the Buddha......
Qingying didn't even look at it, and said coldly, "Then you are late, the master has already sent a piece of fine mutton fat white jade ornament to Miss Lin that day, you ...... It's just not enough to see. ”
Han Zhao originally thought that Qingying could praise a few words, but as soon as he said something that hurt people's self-esteem, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he hurriedly put the small box into his sleeve again.
Although Qingying's words are damaged, she is right, what kind of handwriting does the Shu family have, and what kind of vision does Master Shu have? Will the things that are given away be bad?
