Chapter 317: Dong Yuyao's grievances
Dong Yuyao locked herself in the room full of grievances, and she didn't open anyone who called the door.
The birthday banquet can't be held, which can make Dong Yuzhen and Lin Zhu jealous, and more importantly, the opportunity to show themselves in front of many noble ladies is gone.
Dong Yuyao smashed all the decorations and porcelain vases in the house, until the house was full of fragments and there was nothing to throw away, so she didn't stop, but she still couldn't get rid of the depression in her heart, lying on the bed, crying aggrievedly.
Liu, who was standing outside the house, heard that the movement inside was finally smaller, and just wanted to come forward and knock on the door, but heard her daughter crying, she was very sad, but she was helpless.
I couldn't help but complain about the culprit who caused this situation, but she didn't have the courage to say it.
Mrs. Su, the mother of Taishi Su Shanchang, unfortunately passed away at the age of ninety-three the day before Dong Yuyao's birthday. And Mrs. Tai died in her sleep without any pain, which is not bad.
Although it can't be compared with the royal people, the status of the Taishi is very high, and it is also very prestigious, and many officials are protégés under the name of the Taishi, so many people have received the funeral report from the Taishi Mansion, and others have heard of it even if they haven't received it.
As a result, some banquets and the like were ignored or canceled. Dong Yuyao's birthday banquet couldn't be held because of this.
It's not that the Dong family doesn't do it, but the people who have been invited can't come, even Dong Jisheng, who has not fully recovered, has to go out to visit the Taishi Mansion.
The opportunity that Liu and Dong Yuyao finally got to raise their eyebrows was in vain. Dong Yuyao, who was depressed, would throw things in the house to vent her anger.
Compared with Dong Yuyao's unwillingness, Dong Yuzhen is much easier. There is no need to talk to her, and there is less worry about Lin Zhu suffering here, and he secretly breathes a big sigh of relief in his heart.
Dong Yuyao finally accepted this result, but fortunately, those who couldn't come sent more expensive gifts than before, which soothed her somewhat injured heart and satisfied Dong Yuyao's vanity.
If it weren't for the wrong time, she would have taken out those things and displayed them in front of Dong Yuzhen. Although this will only expose her childish nature, lack of knowledge, and can't get on the stage, she can't see this at all.
You don't have to go to Dong Mansion to participate in Dong Yuyao's so-called birthday banquet. It also relieved Lin Zhu. I was still thinking about it. There will definitely be a tough battle to be fought at that time, but I didn't expect it to end so dramatically.
I really felt sorry for Dong Yuyao, and Lin Zhu thought with some pity.
This was just a small episode, which only made Lin Zhu relax. And it passed. She also no longer paid attention to the affairs of the Dong family. Because now there are more important things that occupy Lin Zhu's mind.
Although Mu Qiyue did not mention the relationship between Mu Qingqi and Lin Qingyue to Lin Zhu. But it didn't prevent her from getting news from other places, especially after the 'little prince' of King Qi's Mansion was in distress, there were many rumors about the relationship between the two of them.
Although Mu Zixuan was not canonized as the prince. But now that he is the only heir of the Qi Palace, he is the only son of the world, so people will call him the little prince in private.
This title has also been rumored recently and will be confirmed in the near future.
A series of rumors made Lin Zhu faintly uneasy, she stayed in her room and thought about it for a long time, and gradually understood in her heart, I am afraid that there will be great twists and turns in the matter of Fu Dou'er recognizing her ancestors and returning to her ancestors.
Judging from Mu Qiyue's faceless attitude, Lin Zhu could also guess that there must have been a change.
Things have developed to this point, and Lin Zhu's mind has also changed. Since coming to this era, she has always warned herself to keep a low profile and not be public. So I always thought that as long as others weren't too excessive, she would generally not care.
Doing so makes people think that she is a soft persimmon, easy to pinch.
Lin Zhu thought about changing this situation, strengthening his strength, and adding more power to Fu Dou'er and himself to protect himself.
"Sister Jingwen, can you invite Fourth Prince Mu to come over in a few days? If he can't come, Lu Gongzi can come. One day after the year, Lin Zhu said to Mu Jingwen, who had been following him.
"I'll ask." After Mu Jingwen finished speaking, she turned around and left. Her position in Lin Zhu's family is very peculiar, she is Lin Zhu's guard, but the salary is not paid by Lin Zhu, but by Mu Qiyue.
Lin Zhu repeatedly wanted to give her some monthly silver, but she was refused, so she had to find another way, but she never succeeded once. I had to let it go.
However, unless she is out of the house, Lin Zhu does not need Mu Jingwen to follow her all the time, and she is not used to having people behind her, and when spring plowing will start in two or three months, it will use a lot of space, and Lin Zhu does not want to be exposed in front of Mu Jingwen.
Therefore, Mu Jingwen is not only relaxed in Lin Zhu, but also very free to come and go.
"Did she say anything?" After Mu Qiyue got Mu Jingwen's report, he asked.
"Miss Lin didn't say it, she only said that if the fourth master doesn't have time, Lu Zhang's affairs can also be done." Mu Jingwen shook her head.
"That's it." Mu Qiyue thought for a while, and then ordered someone to call Lu Mingtao.
"What do you think?" After telling Lu Mingtao what Lin Zhu meant, Mu Qiyue asked.
Lu Mingtao didn't speak, lowered his head and thought for a while, raised his head, and said tentatively, "Could it be that Miss Lin wants to change the contract?" ”
"What do you mean?" Mu Qiyue's eyes flashed.
"Last year, all the output of Miss Lin's place was sold for a lot of money, although Miss Lin made a lot of money, but compared to our firm, it was too much worse, will she feel a little dissatisfied?" Lu Mingtao's tone was a little uncertain, and his eyes were a little cautious when he looked at Mu Qiyue.
He knew that the fourth master seemed to have some strange thoughts about Lin Zhu, and saying this was equivalent to slandering Lin Zhu's impression in his heart, but apart from this, he couldn't think of any other reason that would make Lin Zhu want to see the two of them.
"Fourth master, why don't you just go for a trip." Lu Mingtao saw that after Mu Qiyue listened to his words, he kept silent, so he proposed.
"There you go." In the end, Mu Qiyue spoke up, but his tone was a little helpless, as if he was a little reluctant, but he had to do it as a last resort.
Lu Mingtao wanted to ask the reason, but was glared back by Mu Qiyue's eyes. I had to suppress the curiosity in my heart and say goodbye to see Lin Zhu.
When he arrived at Lin Zhu's house, Lu Mingtao sat in the front hall to meet the guests, and did not let his subordinates serve tea, but discussed with Feng Yuanbo for a long time, asking him to bring some special Zhuji sake to satisfy his hunger.
"Brother Feng, you don't know how to go, since you drank that kind of wine, the others are really difficult to get into your throat, only Zhuji sake can barely be drunk, alas, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that the money that my brother has earned over the years will be spent on wine." Lu Mingtao pretended to be pitiful, so that the subordinates who served around him secretly laughed in their hearts.
Feng Yuanbo was also a little helpless to ask Lin Zhu for advice, and then took out a small jar of special wine for him. and explained that this was a gift from Lin Zhu to him.
Lu Mingtao didn't dare to accept this wine before she didn't know why Lin Zhu wanted to see them, what if after accepting it, she made some unreasonable demands and made it difficult for her to refuse? The hands of people are short, and the mouth of eating people is short.
However, the attraction of the five-catty special wine tasting was too great, and Lu Mingtao finally accepted it after a few seconds of battle between heaven and man. (To be continued......)
