Mu Qiyue was a very arrogant person in his heart, it turned out that he didn't intend to pay attention to Minglu's little maid's thoughts, but he couldn't care less about causing any impact on Lin Zhu.

This made Mu Qiyue's mood very bad, and Mu Yun, who was invited by Minglu to be a lobbyist, didn't get a good face for several days.

Mu Yun also had no choice, and when he couldn't hide from the revelation, he had to tell Mu Qiyue about the situation, of course, there was also a meaning to remind him. After all, Mu Qiyue's family affairs are not up to him, in addition to the emperor, the most important thing is Princess Changmin.

And after Mu Qiyue stayed in the study for a few days, it was like a sunny day after a rain, and his worries had already begun. said goodbye to Lin Zhu and returned to his house.

Mu Qiyue's house in the capital is not too far from Lin Zhu's house, and it will only be time for two teas to take the carriage, but based on the fact that Lin Zhu will not take the initiative to go to his house as a guest, and Fu Dou'er is not convenient to go, he did not say that he still has a house in the capital. So Lin Zhu mistakenly thought that he went to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing.

"Fourth Master, Her Royal Highness Princess Changmin has already sent someone over to call a few times, when will you come over?" Back in his house, the chairs were not hot, and Mu Yun brought up the matter of Princess Changmin again.

"Tomorrow." You have to go early and late, and you can't hide from it, so it's better to go.

"Yes." After listening to Mu Qiyue's words, Mu Yun thought about leaving his study, but was stopped by Mu Qiyue.

"Mu Yun, you go and find a skilled female guard to send to Miss Lin."

"yes, ah. Yes? Mu Yun habitually nodded yes, and only later did he realize what the master's request was.

"The beef matter will expose her sooner or later, it's better to make some preparations earlier, the people of the Zhao family are becoming more and more presumptuous now." The Zhao family that Mu Qiyue said is the maiden family of the Zhao family, the wife of Lin Shurui, the third elder of the Lin family, Hui'an Houfu.

The famous Zhao Ji rice shop in the capital is run by his family. I have always regarded Muyue Trading Company as a thorn in my side. Last year, when the new rice came down, Muyue Commercial Bank suddenly gave many powerful people a share of special white rice, and for this reason, they also deliberately opened a rice shop to rob the Zhao family of a lot of business.

Although the supply of special white rice in the palace is already a matter of the imperial village, the Muyue Commercial Bank can actually get other shares of the tribute rice in the palace. The proportion of the Zhao family is even less. Therefore, in the eyes of the Zhao family, Muyue Commercial Bank has become an opponent that must be defeated.

The Hou Mansion of Hui'an is still a little powerful, so it found some trouble for the Muyue Commercial Bank a few years ago, although it relied on the means of landing Mingtao. One by one, they were resolved. And Mu Qiyue didn't want to meddle in this kind of thing.

But news came from the palace. The qualification of the Muyue Commercial Bank to pay tribute to grains, vegetables and fruits was cancelled. It was said that the things they sent were not up to standard. Zhao Ji's share of tribute was restored.

If there is no cattiness in this, Lu Mingtao can't believe it, but he can't question them either. Otherwise, if you take a hat down indiscriminately, it may affect the overall situation, especially if Mu Qiyue's identity cannot be exposed.

However, Mu Qiyue didn't express any opinions after knowing about this matter, to be honest, Mu Qiyue didn't value this piece, but as the things in Lin Zhu's hands became more and more abundant, it became more important to make a name for himself by paying tribute, especially every time something was newly produced, it could always bring rich returns, how could Mu Qiyue not have more snacks.

At this time, someone made a stumbling block, and of course it made Mu Qiyue very unhappy.

"I'll arrange it." Mu Yun nodded solemnly.

Although there were still very few beef cattle in Wang's village, even Mu Yun could see the 'money' scene inside, so he carefully selected the right person.

Of course, there is also the meaning of showing favor to Lin Zhu, although it is hidden, but Mu Yun has already calculated it, and use this matter to improve Mu Qiyue's image in Minglu.

Lin Zhu didn't know Mu Qiyue's plans, she was busy preparing to go to Lin's house.

Lin Yuewei, the seventh young master of the Lin family, in order to get Lin Zhu to come to the house to see him, but he did everything he could, and even took out a hunger strike to threaten the third child of the Lin family and his wife Zhao.

Zhao has always been dissatisfied that his son actually had an affair with a lowly peasant woman. And even if Lin Zhu assured him that he didn't have any excuse for the Lin family, the Zhao family would not believe it. A person who looks down on you from the bottom of his bones is useless to guarantee.

Zhao has always had a high opinion of herself, how could she trust a peasant girl.

But Lin Yuewei's matter was known to Mr. Lin, and he was worried that he had no excuse to see this granddaughter in person, so he called Lin Shurui and Zhao to him, and reprimanded the two of them on the grounds that Lin Yuewei didn't eat. and ordered them to invite Lin Zhu to the Rang Mansion in the near future.

Lin Shurui, who didn't have any dislike for Lin Zhu, hated her under his father's reprimand, his son's noise and his wife's provocation.

Lin Zhu didn't know that the waves in the Lin Mansion were surging, and she was a little helpless to pack up her things.

Every half a month, she will reply to Lin Yuewei, a little guy, and she also believes that the people in the Lin Mansion will definitely read what she wrote first, and then give it to Lin Yuewei, so she only writes something funny and encouraging him every time. But what she didn't expect was that Lin Yuewei wrote to her a few years ago asking her what delicious food she had prepared for her younger brother? She easily told him about her plans for the New Year.

I thought it was nothing, but I didn't expect him to write again, so he asked Lin Zhu to treat everyone equally, he is also a younger brother, and those delicious foods should be made for him once.

This made her very embarrassed, the Lin family's attitude towards her, Lin Zhu was clear, it is estimated that except for Lin Yuewei, no one is willing to let her come to the door again. But in this case, I can't tell Lin Yuewei truthfully.

While she was thinking hard about the solution, Lin Yuewei wrote again and said that he would find a way to let Lin Zhu pass.

Sure enough, within a few days, the Lin family came and took an invitation to let her come to the door.

It's okay now, if you don't go, you have to go. Because it was during the Chinese New Year, Lin Zhu felt that he couldn't come to the door empty-handed.

He prepared gifts, one for face and for the Lin family, and one for Lin Yuewei.

Lin Zhu took the carriage and went to Lin's house.

And on this day, Mr. Lin also deliberately stayed at home. Waiting for Lin Zhu to come to the door.

Lin Zhu entered the Lin Mansion, first went to Mrs. Lin to ask for peace, and also met Lin Yuewei's mother Zhao there, but in Zhao's unhappy face and eyes that showed a trace of unkindness from time to time, Lin Zhu obviously felt that she did not like herself. seems to have moved all the resentment that couldn't convince Lin Yuewei to her.

When they met Old Lady Lin again, they were kind, but the eldest lady Yang ignored her existence, and the second lady Wu sat there and looked at her very kindly.

After thanking the Lin family's invitation, Lin Zhu gave the gift he brought, and after making enough gifts, with the approval of Mrs. Lin, he followed the maid to Lin Yuewei's yard.

After Lin Zhu left, Old Man Lin came in. With a straight face, he sat at the top of the seat.

"Master, this is the Lin Zhu girl just now, Xiao Qi's friend sent it." Old Madam Lin said to Old Man Lin, who also doted on Lin Yuewei.

"Really? It's very polite. Old Man Lin nodded, generally speaking, the things given by the guests will not be brought directly to the masters, but will only be held with a gift list for the host to see.

But today, I don't know why the steward was so negligent, and actually brought all the gifts into the hall.

Therefore, the things sent by Lin Zhu were placed in front of the masters of the Lin family at a glance.

"Hmph, it's really from the countryside, our Lin family doesn't have any good wine, can't you use her to send some shoddy wine?" The Zhao family had long seen that Lin Zhu was not pleasing to the eye, and of course he was very picky about the things she sent.

Old Man Lin's eyes immediately fixed on the wine jar, good things come in pairs, and the two jars of wine are placed there without any packaging.

Looking at it, Old Man Lin's eyes tightened, and he seemed to see something, and he immediately called someone in, "Lin Da, send these two jars of wine to my private vault." ”

The others, including Old Madam Lin, looked at Old Man Lin very strangely, and the Zhao family blushed in embarrassment.

"Master, this wine?" Mrs. Lin asked for everyone.

"Hehehehe, this wine is not a big deal." Old Man Lin stroked his beard and smiled. But no one believes what he says, it's not a big deal, can you hide it in your own private vault?

"Okay, look at what else the bamboo girl has sent, and you have to prepare some things for her when she leaves. I'll ask someone to bring some New Year's money later. Old Man Lin left satisfied.

Leaving the Lin family and the ladies to sit there looking at each other.

"Butler, is there anything special about that wine?" Seeing that Old Man Lin refused to speak, Mrs. Lin had to ask the person who first came into contact with the wine world.

"Back to the old lady, the wine jar is still sealed, and I don't know what is particularly small about the wine, but there is a mark of a bamboo leaf under the jar." The butler replied cautiously.

Old Madam Lin instantly understood why Old Man Lin had just behaved, and it seemed that the things she sent were just in line with Old Man Lin's appetite.

"How did she know that her father liked this wine?" Yang raised the question in everyone's mind.

Suspicious eyes passed among the ladies. Even the kindest second lady, Wu, frowned a little.

"It seems that I have already inquired." The Zhao family has always denied Lin Zhu.

"I think I've thought about it a lot, but who doesn't know that Takeki sake is the most popular now." Wu still felt that Lin Zhu didn't have so many scheming, and defended her.

"The second sister-in-law is too generous. Even if everyone in the capital knows what it is, this Takeji sake is not so easy to get. Didn't we just buy ten jars? Zhao was even more disgusted with Lin Zhu in his heart, "That cost a lot of silver." ”

"Alright, let the butler see what is down there, and where to send it." Old Madam Lin's face was a little bad, and she impatiently asked the three ladies to go back. (To be continued......)
