Chapter 341: Attitude
Mu Qiyue went out temporarily for a while because of the matter of Muyue Commercial Bank, so he got the news much later than Lin Zhu.
And after knowing the road, the mood also changed very badly, because the trivial matters of the business bank did not get Lin Zhu's answer in time, and now there are such rumors that damage Lin Zhu's reputation. In order to avoid suspicion, Lin Zhu will not have too much contact with him.
Mu Qiyue, who was pale, first came to Muyue Commercial Bank and asked Lu Mingtao to find out who had spread this matter, and he decided that he must give this rumor-monger an unforgettable punishment.
"Fourth master, I think the one who spread this rumor should be a woman." Lu Mingtao speculated, and his face was a little solemn.
"Oh, how do you say?" Mu Qiyue was suspicious of Hui'an Hou Zhao Cheng in his heart, after all, Muyue Commercial Bank cooperated with Lin Zhu again, and a clear-eyed person could know the Tao at a glance, and he was a businessman who made no money and did not lose money, and the cautious Zhao Cheng was very likely to slander himself and Lin Zhu for this matter.
"The rumors almost didn't say that you weren't, they were all aimed at Miss Lin." Lu Mingtao took two steps in the house, "I said that Miss Lin was so unbearable, I should be jealous of her, maybe I still like you." Although Lu Mingtao's analysis was not far from the facts, they couldn't find this person for a while.
After all, Mu Qiyue's previous reputation was too negative, and although he saved some, the people who really liked him were still limited. It seems that the first thing to target is to target the people who are jealous of Lin Zhu.
"Although Miss Lin has always been kind, sometimes she is a little tactful, and she has become the granddaughter of General Chang. It is also something that makes many people envious and jealous, and it must be easier to find it from her surroundings. Lu Mingtao and Lin Zhu are also very familiar with each other, and the cooperation between the two sides has always been very tacit, so he is also willing to help in this kind of thing.
"Hmph, we must find out this person who dares to ruin my sister's reputation like this." Chang Tianlei sat in the hall and said very angrily. "Let me know who is chewing his tongue behind his back, and he must be good-looking!"
"Bamboo girl, what do you think?" General Chang, who was sitting at the top, had a serious face and looked at Lin Zhu at the center of the incident. But I saw that her face was as usual. I wasn't angry or alarmed by this.
"The trick of the clown who jumps off the beam can't be put on the stage. Ignore it. Lin Zhuyun said lightly, although he was used to seeing this kind of thing in his previous life, he didn't expect it to appear on him now. But Lin Zhu felt that he was steady. Rumors will naturally go unbreaking.
"It's past this outlet. Those who are bored should stop. ”
"Don't you want to know who made the rumor?" Seeing that Lin Zhu was so calm, General Chang nodded secretly, with a good temperament.
"Those who spread rumors may not be accustomed to my people. Maybe you don't like what I do, but these people are doing nothing all day, so it's better to keep them busy and save them from wasting time in such boring places. Lin Zhu actually has some objects of suspicion, but there is no real evidence, so it is really difficult to speculate.
"Well, my sister is really jealous sometimes." Chang Tianlei thinks deeply about this. Everything Lin Zhu did received very good results, and even this time, no one was optimistic about the ranch of Lu, and it seemed that he would make a lot of money in the near future.
The most important thing is that Lin Zhu has not attracted too much attention because of her low profile, and even the emperor has praised her character. This is also the news that Concubine Lan came from the palace.
"But in the end, this matter still has an impact on your reputation," General Chang said in a deep voice, he couldn't suffer this kind of loss in vain, "I will send someone to investigate this matter, and you don't have to pay attention to the attitude of some people outside." If they dare to go too far, the old man will teach them a good lesson. "General Chang feels that he can't be bullied to the head, and he doesn't fight back, the tiger doesn't exert his might, and he really treats us as old and decrepit.
In addition, General Chang was also dissatisfied with Mu Qiyue, and he couldn't see that the reason why these rumors were all directed at Lin Zhu was not because he didn't know where to cause trouble. It seems that the matter between him and Lin Zhu has to be carefully considered.
Mu Qiyue, who was also shot while lying down, felt very helpless, and secretly hated in his heart that he didn't have a long-sighted idea to hit him? That's why I'm so passive in front of General Chang and Lin Zhu now.
However, in order to alleviate this matter, Mu Qiyue did not go directly to Lin Zhu's house, nor did he go to General Chang's Mansion to explain, but he sent letters to General Chang and Lin Zhu separately as soon as possible, indicating that he did not have any behavior of messing with flowers and grass, and at the same time, he also expressed his willingness to investigate to the end. This relieved some of General Chang's anger.
Although it is a rumor, it is also a rumor close to the truth, but it is not a woman chasing a man as everyone thinks, but a man chasing a woman.
However, this rumor made the people of Qingwangfu unable to sit still, after all, they didn't want Mu Qiyue to find a Yue family that would help him and not help others.
General Chang's Mansion happens to be the family of Qing Wangye and other jealous people, although General Chang is no longer in the army, but his residual power is still there. In addition, the emperor still treats the Chang family preferentially, and there is the support of Concubine Lan's mother, if Mu Qiyue really becomes the son-in-law of the Chang family, wouldn't it be even more powerful? This is not what some people in the Qingwang Mansion want to see.
Although King Qing let Mu Qiyue return to live in the house in the name of filial piety, and his yard is much stronger than before, Mu Qiyue does not return to King Qing's mansion every day.
However, if the people of Qingwangfu want to find him, as long as they go to the Muyue Trading House, someone will receive him, and it will no longer be like when no one paid attention to him before.
"Call him back to me. The king wants to ask him, why did he come back to this mess after going out for a while? Where did he put the face of the Qing Palace? "King Qing's Mansion is furious in the mansion.
Princess Changmin's Mansion.
Princess Changmin was a little worried about this rumor, and Mu Qiyue had also mentioned to her about Lin Zhu and his thoughts before. Princess Changmin saw that he had made up her mind, and Lin Zhu was very good in terms of identity and ability, so Princess Changmin had no opinion.
But the rumors will hurt the reputations of the two after all. And the families of the two are both heads and faces, and they will never be exposed so easily, if both sides stand up and say that there is no such thing, then it will be difficult for Mu Qiyue and Lin Zhu to get together again.
So Princess Changmin was a little anxious and wanted to find Mu Qiyue and ask him how to deal with this matter. So he also sent someone to the Muyue Trading House to find him.
Similarly, as a person who is very close to Lin Zhu, he is very angry that someone wants to ruin Lin Zhu's reputation like this.
In the Dong Mansion, when Mrs. Lin and Dong Yuzhen were also anxious about Lin Zhu, Dong Yuyao and Liu were watching jokes together.
"Hmph, it's really shameless, but he has a hand in clinging to the powerful at a young age." Liu sat in Mrs. Lin's courtyard with Dong Yuyao in the name of asking for peace, and from time to time mocked a few rumors that were unfavorable to Lin Zhu in the capital, and squeezed Mrs. Lin and Dong Yuzhen in and out of words. "Which young lady will Yao'er associate with in the future, but you have to see clearly who she is, understand?"
"Yes." Since Dong Yuyao climbed to the Qi Palace, Dong Yuyao specially asked the Liu family to invite a nurturing mother to guide her etiquette rules. So far, there are some results, and I know the rules much more than before. It's just that he still speaks like Liu's, and his mouth is open, which is very unappetizing.
"Several young ladies of the Lin family are all famous ladies, you have to learn from them." Liu is very satisfied with Dong Yuyao's current performance, and he has also heard that many ladies have a very good impression of her, so he naturally shows off in front of Mrs. Lin with pride.
Mrs. Lin has a strong disdain in the depths of her eyes, she can't control what her mother's family does, and she doesn't want to deliberately please the four brothers, she has never been close to the eldest brother and the third brother, the second brother is serious, and never easily shows her concern, but Mrs. Lin still sees from some things that the second brother does not have too much affection for her.
may be the same reason for the concubine, the fourth brother is very good to her. So when Dong Yuzhen went to the Lin Mansion, the sisters of the second brother and the fourth brother got along very well. Mrs. Lin has no regrets.
It's just that I can't get used to the appearance of Liu and Dong Yuyao's villains, and they often ignore the provocations of the two of them.
However, this time it involved Lin Zhu, Mrs. Lin was very surprised, "It's right that my sister can think like this, everyone has the way of doing things, and it's good to let Yu Yao follow suit, but the girls in the boudoir are the most avoidant of these rumors, if you don't pay more attention outside, you will inevitably be seen as a frivolous person, and it will be worth the loss." ”
Mrs. Lin's words made Liu's mother and daughter change their faces. In an instant, Liu's anger rushed to his head, and when he just wanted to fight back against Mrs. Lin, he was stopped by his daughter, whose face was a little pale.
"Mother taught me a lesson." Obviously, Dong Yuyao understood the meaning of the warning in Mrs. Lin's words. After being taught for so long, Dong Yuyao knows these rules much better than Liu. A young lady in the boudoir, for this kind of rumors between men and women, should not inquire more, it is best to avoid it, and she and her mother are so grandiose in front of the main room of the Dong Mansion, even discussing with ridicule, if Mrs. Lin uses the rights of her wife in the main room to ground herself with her mother-in-law Liu, it is understandable.
And don't look at Liu's flaunting power in the Dong Mansion, but he is not very proficient in the dealings between ladies, and sometimes even makes jokes, which has to need Mrs. Lin to preside over the overall situation of the mansion.
Because of this, some Dong Yuyao will restrain some of their attitudes. Try not to leave a handle in front of Mrs. Lin.
Seeing her daughter bowing her head, Liu wanted to regain face, but under Dong Yuyao's warning eyes, she died down. The two of them left Mrs. Lin's courtyard in a gloomy manner.
"Mother, what should I do with Sister Xiaozhu?" After Liu's mother and daughter left, Dong Yuzhen revealed her worries.
"It's all groundless, I believe the General's Mansion will handle it." Mrs. Lin frowned, knowing in her heart that having said that, the rumors had already caused damage to Lin Zhu's reputation, so her marriage would become a little unsmooth.
There will be two more. (To be continued......)
