Chapter 237: Leave some silver
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Yanfu officially hosted a banquet for relatives and friends.
Cai Er Niangzi was called by the kitchen in the house to help with the dishes. Cai Er took Lin Zhu to go back to Xiezhuang Pit's house to have a look. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Cai Er Niangzi's father and younger brother's family will come to live for a few days, and they have to go in advance to give Lin Zhang's a reassurance, and by the way, Yan Mansion has a lot of vegetables these days, and someone will often come over to prevent her from coming to the vegetable garden.
Lin Zhang's is arrogant and domineering, and always feels that the second daughter-in-law has climbed his son. is sneering at the father of the second lady of the dish and his father-in-law Hu Lao. Daddy Hu is honest and honest but has strong self-esteem, and he usually doesn't come to his daughter's house.
It's just that in the past two years, the population of my son's family has increased a bit rapidly, and the problem of food and clothing is difficult to solve. That's when I occasionally come to my daughter's house to see if I can be helped.
People are poor, horses are thin and have long hair, this sentence is really true.
Lin Zhu really didn't want to go to Lin Zhang's house. Not to mention that the Gargamel-like old woman always called her money and reminded her of her provenance. The atmosphere of the family is strange just because it is so big.
Lin Zhang and his little grandson live in the big empty main courtyard. The two sons lived in two courtyards, and one was left for them, which was empty, but it was a lot of idle things.
This big family seems to live in a large courtyard, as if three generations are in the same house. In fact, it is the idle men and the lazy women. There are so many people in the whole family who gnaw on the old family. But the one who was gnawed came to squeeze the most diligent son.
In order to dress and eat, it seems that a family is actually divided into three parts, and three families stage palace scheming every day. Men are idle and addicted to gambling, and the two shrewd and lazy daughters-in-law try their best to let their children eat more. Dress well.
The elderly mother-in-law who is calculating and eating empty books.
In this family, there is no diligent and down-to-earth person except for the father, and no one of the women has a life except for the mother. It is said that hard work makes you rich, and if you are so lazy, you deserve to live a poor life for the rest of your life.
But she doesn't live at home, and her father and mother are just such a child. How can the New Year have to pass the formal New Year's greetings, which is exquisite.
The father and daughter carried ten big steamed buns and ten fried oil cakes. I thought about the rhetoric, and the Yan Mansion sent someone to send it. Walk down the slope and walk through an alley made up of people's courtyard walls. When he met Young Master Jin Zhen's brocade clothes and went out, the somewhat dim sky suddenly cleared. He was followed by the tall Li Zhushan. Holding a beautiful gift box in his hand.
It seems that he is going to Yanfu to pay New Year's greetings to the old lady......
Cai Er bent down very servilely to say hello from a distance: "The villain greets Young Master Jin." Happy New Year to Master Jin. “
He felt so good about Young Master Jin Zhen. The voice was attentive with unconcealed joy.
Young Master Jin Zhen smiled and said, "Second Uncle Cai, you also have a good New Year." Do you want to go to the house and sit? ”
Speaking to Cai Er in his mouth, his eyes looked at Lin Zhu, warm.
He loves seeing the trees every day. But after this he will be away for a little while. I can't help but have reluctance in my eyes.
Cai Er smiled innocently and said, "Young Master Jin." You've got something to do today. The villain won't bother. Wait for Young Master Jin to be free one day. The villain goes to kowtow again. ”
As a subordinate, kowtow to the master for the New Year. Young Master Jin Zhen is not his master, he thinks he is the master in his heart.
Kowtow to what. It's good that you're old. Don't be so slave all the time. Lin Zhu glanced at Bai Cai Er with dissatisfaction. Nanaji didn't see the white of his daughter's eyes. Continue to nod your head.
Young Master Jin Zhen smiled slightly and said, "Second Uncle Cai doesn't have to be polite. Xiaosheng will leave home to visit his parents in the afternoon. I'm going to be away for a few days. When I come back, I will come to see your second aunt with the same dish. ”
Let's go today. Lin Zhu quickly glanced at Li Zhushan, who was a little stupid. He was watching her, too.
Then he asked in a low voice, "Brother Dashan." Are you going home with Master Jin too? ”
Li Zhushan said in a rough voice: "Jiu'er will also go back together, and there will be no one at home." ”
"Young Master Jin, Brother Dashan. Bon voyage. ”
Say goodbye to Young Master Jin Zhen Li Zhushan. Lin Zhu felt a little lost.
It's used to Jiu'er coming to see her from time to time. I was used to Young Master Jin Zhen's warm eyes when he looked at her. They are the closest people she has to her father and mother in this strange era, and they have almost become her spirit in recent years. Jiu'er, in particular, is a real hardcore best friend. Except for not telling her about the ambiguous things she had with Jin Xiaoguang, she didn't hide anything else. It's also true that my father and mother are honest and honest, and they don't understand her much, and she can only tell Jiu'er a lot of things on her mind.
Jiu'er is about to leave, and she has to go and say goodbye. She still has a lot of silver deposited with her, and she has already used a small part of it, and she can't afford to pay it back now. asked her if she wanted to take the rest with her.
Absentmindedly entered the Lin family, Lin Zhang's performance was very surprised. He was very enthusiastic about her. I don't know where to find the frozen apples, a few wilted dried dates stuffed for her, and she said vigorously: "Zhu'er, it's big for the New Year." Eat quickly. ”
The fat cake face squeezed out wrinkles as he spoke, and it was very profound.
It stands to reason that the wrinkles on the face of obese people are not noticeable. Lin Zhang's face was full of chrysanthemums when he smiled.
She ran out and ran in with great difficulty, busy pouring water for Lin Shu to drink.
Lin Yun and Lin Duo also walked out of the courtyard when they heard the voice. Lin Yun took her hand very attentively and said, "Zhu'er, grandma has already agreed." Fifteen, the three of us went to the town to see the fire. Look at the lanterns. He also said to boil us a few eggs and bring them. ”
Lin Duo also nodded vigorously.
It seems that grandma has finally opened her grace. The three aunts of the great god are also fat and thin, all with rare smiles, talking and laughing around the father and daughter.
I didn't pay attention to the steamed bread oil cakes that were still on the edge of the kang. Usually, as long as I see something to eat, my eyes are eager to eat.
This family is strange. In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, they were also cold to her. After only two days, the attitude took a 180-degree turn.
It's just that on the fifteenth day of the first month, I went to see a spark lantern in the community, as for being so excited. She'll go to see it in previous years, okay?
Which one is this singing? What's the conspiracy? The fake face of the family, Lin Zhu quickly used his brain.
But I couldn't think of any reason. Maybe it's because of a discovery of conscience or because I've grown up.
I don't have to think about it. After sitting for a while, he said that he would go next door to say goodbye to Jiu'er, and got up to say goodbye.
Cai Er's mother and sister-in-law had such a good attitude, and they were excited, so they stayed and sat for a while.
When I looked up, I saw Lin Yun looking at Lin Zhu's eyes strangely, and he didn't mean anything, he definitely had hatred.
His heart tightened, and he stared at Lin Yun suspiciously. I want to see something.
Lin Yun forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart as Lin Zhu's delicate back disappeared at the gate, and turned his face to meet the eyes of the second uncle. The little face flushed, lowered his head and hurriedly walked away.
In a few days, she will replace Lin Zhuzao's second uncle's daughter in a grand manner. It must not be seen by the second uncle. 、
But thinking of Chao Simu, the immortal-like young master Jin Zhen hugged Lin Zhu so gently. She wanted to tear her apart right now.
Lin Zhu came to Young Master Jin Zhen's house, Mei Jiucheng wandered around the courtyard, saw her very kindly smiled and said, "Zhu'er, you are here." Come inside, it's cold outside. ”
This said. Lin Zhu really felt cold. It was as if my hands were numb.
She rubbed her hands together. "It's cold and dry today," he said. Mabel, go into the house and warm up, don't freeze. ”
For this old servant who was as scary as a ghost in Lin Yun's mouth, Lin Zhu had another feeling. I feel very kind and kind, and it seems to be a long of my own.
Mei Jiugong was even a little moved in his heart, and said with a loving smile on his face: "People are old, and their bodies are hard and cold-resistant. You go in, Jiu'er is in the young master's house. ”
Every time he saw Lin Zhu, he was also very excited. It will remind him of Princess Jin's quiet and soft face, when he saw the princess for the first time, he was amazed. At that time, she was not much older than Lin Zhu's current time, and he still remembered very clearly that her eyes were as pure as a pool of lake water.
He had a crush on her for so long that no woman had been able to enter his eyes so far.
I think that I saw the princess back then and mistakenly lived for life, but now I still feel like this when I see her daughter.
He slowly turned and walked towards the backyard. Thinking that he didn't know if he would ever see this elf-like girl again, he turned to look again.
This time I went back not to appease the old ministers and old ministers of the former dynasty as before, but to fight against foreign invaders. The young master said that he must let the foreign ministers retreat a hundred miles beyond the border, so as to ensure that the former ministers who were placed there could live and work in peace and contentment like ordinary people......
It's a life-and-death duel.
Lin Zhu lifted the curtain and entered the room, Jiu'er was sorting out Young Master Jin Zhen's clothes on the bed, looked back at her with a pair of slender eyes and narrowed down with a smile and said, "I heard that you went over there just now, and I think you will come over." ”
Lin Zhu walked over and put his hand into the quilt, and he touched the stove of the cover, took it out, hugged it with both hands and said, "Warm your hands, it's cold." ”
Young Master Jin Zhen slept on a bed, and there would be this small copper stove on the bed day and night.
The heater has good heat insulation, and Jiu'er will add charcoal to it on time. Lin Zhu hugged and warmed up for a while, stroked the velvet sleeve, approached Jiu'er and said, "Sister Jiu'er, I heard that Young Master Jin said that you are leaving in the afternoon, I am really reluctant, you are gone, who am I going to find if I have something." ”
Jiu'er stopped what she was doing, looked at her and said, "Zhu'er, let's go." You must remember to stay away from Jin Gongzi. There are also carefree sons, all a little farther away. You have to believe that less will make you live well. ”
Lin Zhu's eyes quickly looked outside, but there was no one.
She asked in a low voice, "Sister Jiu'er, you tell me quietly." Who am your young master? ”
She really wanted to know the answer.
Jiu'er naturally wouldn't tell her, but said, "Zhu'er, no matter what the young master's relationship with you is, you just need to remember that he is the best person for you." ”
Lin Shu pursed her lips, it seemed that she wouldn't speak. If you don't say it, you won't say it.
She changed the subject and said, "Sister Jiu'er, you're going out." Bring with you the money you have left with me. If you are poor and rich, bring more silver on the road and rest assured. However, it is not enough for fifty taels. “
Jiu'er smiled lightly, revealing her fine white teeth, which was very good-looking.
She said: "Zhu'er, my young master has silver. I don't need that at all. Sister has one more thing to ask you. I have a hundred taels here, and I will leave it with you. If you need it urgently, just use it, and don't worry about paying it back. ”
Lin Zhu hurriedly said, "Sister Jiu'er, you should bring the silver." Where I put it, I want to use it if I don't have money. How will I pay it back to you when the time comes. ”
Jiu'er hurriedly said: "No, you don't have to pay it back." Then a little silver. You just have to use it, and what else is there. ”
It's just that there are only a hundred taels of silver, and the young master throws away more than this.
Lin Zhu was willing to use it, shook his hand and said, "Sister Jiu'er, one hundred taels of silver." You still rest assured in the money bank. I can't sleep well with me. Besides. I'm afraid that I will use too much silver, and I won't be able to pay you back when the time comes. It's going to ruin our relationship. It is said that good friends are diligent in settling accounts. ”
Jiu'er felt a little depressed. The young master instructed her to find a way to leave some silver for Lin Zhu, no matter what method she used, the more the better.
She wanted to come and go, but there were too many trees and she didn't dare to stay. It's too little, and I'm afraid that something will happen to the little county lord. It took a little thought before I decided to leave a hundred taels.
Although one hundred taels of silver is not much, it is already an astronomical amount for the current situation of the little county lord.
She hurriedly said, "You and I don't have to worry so much about each other. What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine. If you need anything, you can use it, and if it's not enough, I'll leave some more for you."
Listening to her tone, she did not deposit the silver, but kept her the silver.
She asked, "Sister Jiu'er." This is what Young Master Jin meant. What was stored with me before was also what he meant? ”
In this era, silver is very valuable, and one hundred taels of silver is enough to buy a property for ordinary people's families, buy a few acres of good land and marry a few daughters-in-law. Although Young Master Jin Zhen's family is wealthy, it is unreasonable for a maid to be so generous.
Jiu'er smiled and said, "Zhu'er, no matter whose it is, you can stay and use it." “
Lin Zhu naturally refused to ask for it.
No matter what the relationship with Young Master Jin Zhen is, it is still useless. She wanted to do it on her own.
Jiu'er was anxious, turned around and pulled her and said, "Zhu'er, you can leave the silver." I can't use it, otherwise how can I explain it to the young master. “
As he spoke, his eyes swirled in his sockets.
The young master explained. , no matter what method is used, the little lord must leave the silver. Not being able to guard his sister's side, leaving some money is a comfort for him.
It must have been Young Master Jin Zhen who put pressure on Jiu'er.
Don't embarrass Jiu'er, although I haven't seen Young Master Jin Zhen's power, but it is already certain that she is definitely not an ordinary man, and if he wants to give her silver, he shouldn't have to bother.
Maybe Young Master Jin Zhen is really the leader of the gang and is entrusted to take care of himself.
It seems that it will not work if you don't take this silver, and it will make Jiu'er embarrassed.
If you have more money, you don't burn your hands. That being the case.
She smiled and said, "Then I'm welcome." I can spend all my money on it. When you come back, in case it's already spent, you are not allowed to ask for it. “
"No, no, no." Jiu'er hurriedly said, "If you don't have enough to leave more." ”
It seems that what she used to put in her own place is also for herself.
It's a good thing to have more silver, but unless it is absolutely necessary, the silver will never be used, and the right should still be deposited. (To be continued......)
