163. Silver

Lan Xue knew that the old couple had scruples in their hearts, so they didn't dare to reach out to pick it up, so they simply didn't say more, squatted down and stuffed the silver ticket into the old woman's hand, and then turned around and left.

When a group of guards hugged the carriage and left, the old couple kneeling on the ground slowly straightened up, looked at the genuine silver ticket in their hands, and for a while, tears welled up in their eyes, and they kept kowtowing in the direction of the carriage......

On the carriage, Lin Mu'er leaned on the cushion, and the hairpin was placed on the low table in front of her casually, Lan Xue glanced at the hairpin, and then at the somewhat tired Lin Mu'er, deliberately smiled a little, and said excitedly: "This hairpin, the prince will like it when he sees it, the slave and maid go back to find a good-looking box, and it must be good to match!" ”

Looking at Lan Xue with a happy face, Lin Mu'er was not interested, and only said lazily: "That is, if you buy gadgets casually, you may not be able to get into the eyes of the prince, if you really send them out with great fanfare, it will look like a small family." Lin Mu'er rubbed her eyes, closed her eyes and continued: "Just go back and keep it, when the prince can use it, he will take it out." ”

As soon as the words fell, Lan Xue's smile froze, but she had no choice but to say "yes". Lan Xue frowned, looked at Lin Mu'er's tranquil expression, and sighed secretly in her heart: Although the prince and the princess get along quite harmoniously, no matter what, the two of them are polite, polite and courteous. But this respectful and amiable atmosphere is actually polite alienation and resistance. If it goes on like this, how can it be like a husband and wife living a life?

Although Lan Xue had a heart, looking at Lin Mu'er's appearance that she didn't want to be troubled, she knew that her master didn't have this mind, and she couldn't be too anxious, so she had to press her mind and slowly figure it out.

When I returned to Weiyueju, I thought that King Jin would be reading, but I didn't think it was a nap, although Lin Mu'er was strange in her heart, she didn't bother, and only told the kitchen to heat up the dim sum she brought back, in case the prince woke up and could eat. After changing his clothes, he called Meiyue to the small study to check the accounts.

"Master, in the afternoon, a message came from the palace, saying that our Jin Wangfu is not allowed to occupy the pool of Yunshui Hot Spring, and can only draw water to dig a small pool by ourselves. The slave and maid calculated, I am afraid that it is a large expense. As soon as Lin Mu'er sat down, Meiyue frowned and opened her mouth softly.

"Oh?" Lin Mu'er frowned: "In addition to the pool, I'm afraid that the houses for us will also have to be repaired, right?" ”

Since the emperor refused to let the King of Jin use the pool of the hot spring in order to avoid suspicion, the house used for pigs must be remote and not commonly used, and it must be repaired.

Mei Yue's brows furrowed even deeper: "Yes, the two compartments add up, I'm afraid it will cost more than a thousand taels of silver." ”

Lin Mu'er nodded, the Jin Wangfu family has a thin background, if it wasn't for the fact that he had cleaned up those stewards before, he would have collected some silver. Now I'm afraid I'm already sitting on the empty mountain!

"Let's go first, now the prince's health is tight, and other places are tighter, so let's focus on the prince first." Lin Mu'er did not hesitate, and ordered: "There is also Zhuangzi, seeing that spring ploughing is about to begin, it must be another expense, you should be careful here, don't let those who don't give up drill again."

Empty! ”

"Yes, the slave knows." Meiyue nodded, and presented the account book in her hand to Lin Mu'er: "This is last month's account, master, you can see it." ”

Lin Mu'er took the account book, only roughly swept a few pages, his brows wrinkled even deeper, his fingers rubbed the corner of the account book, and he opened his mouth in a deep voice: "It does cost a lot of money......

Meiyue also nodded, usually when the master was alone, the food and clothing were arbitrary, but now that the prince is back, all aspects of food and clothing must be prepared, not to mention that he also brought a group of entourage, which is a lot of expenses. In addition, the king of Jin originally held a funeral, and all the funerals were stopped. Now that he has come back suddenly, the emperor has not spoken, so naturally he will not be able to receive the money. Although he has rewarded a lot of precious objects, who dares to sell them at will? I had to find a place that was out of the way and put it up well.

After a pause, Lin Mu'er sighed: "Now that the weather is gradually getting warmer, I should be able to save a lot in terms of charcoal fire, but everyone in the house should also buy spring clothes, I came to the palace in the first year, I can't be harsh, or do it for everyone in the palace as usual, and halve my clothes as appropriate, I don't go out often, and if I do more, it will be the bottom of the box." There is also food, although it cannot be deducted, but it must not be wasted in the house, and it is always necessary to make the best use of it. In addition to some supplements that the prince must have, those precious ingredients, if you don't prepare, don't waste them. I see that the prince is not a person with heavy appetites, so don't waste money in vain. ”

"Master......" Meiyue was a little incredulous, her eyes widened, but she wanted to say and stopped! There has always been only one who deducts from his subordinates, how can there be a master who saves himself and does not treat his subordinates harshly?

Seeing Meiyue like this, Lin Mu'er naturally knew what she was thinking, and waved her hand, but it prevented Meiyue from speaking. Lin Mu'er himself doesn't care much about food and clothing, and now that he is stretched, it doesn't matter if he saves a little, but he just has a few flashy clothes!

"Why don't you mention it to the prince?" Meiyue saw that Lin Mu'er didn't want to say more, thought about it, and opened her mouth carefully. After all, King Jin is a prince, and there are always more ways to make money than cabinet women.

Lin Mu'er frowned, and finally shook his head, King Jin is in northern Xinjiang all the year round, and all the shops and fields in the capital are deserted, how can there be any other income? Forget it, although he has been forced to this now, after all, he is still a pampered royal child, and there is no need to bother him with such a cheesy yellow and white thing, it will only add to the annoyance.

"That's it, if you tighten up on all matters, you can get through." Lin Mu'er closed the account, looked at the somewhat depressed Meiyue on the side, smiled softly, and said: "Fortunately, in this palace, the prince and my two masters, plus the prince needs to recuperate, there is nothing to be extravagant and wasteful." ”

"By the way, as soon as the hot spring is repaired, we will go over, and we will have to live for a few months, and you will have to take care of the affairs in this palace." Lin Mu'er smiled and said apologetically: "You are in charge of the accounts of the palace, but it is inconvenient to take you over, so I can only work for you."

It's hard work! ”

Meiyue's eyes were sour, but she knelt down lightly: "Niangniang trusts, Meiyue naturally doesn't dare to slack off, where can it be said that it is hard, the slave will definitely live up to the weight of Niangniang!" ”

Lin Mu'er stretched out her hand and slowly raised her eyebrows: "Look at you!" Get up! By the way, over there, if Quan Yu has difficulties, you can also take care of it more, if the drunken flower shade is done, it is also a good entry! ”

Meiyue nodded: "Yes, the slave knows!" ”

With a sigh, Lin Mu'er no longer bothered about money, and the left and right were just tightened, and it was not too difficult. Then he pulled the eyebrows and carefully checked the account book, this time I went out, and I didn't know that I could only return home in the year of the monkey, and I always had to arrange it properly.

I don't know how long it took, I saw the red apricot palm the lamp coming, and the two of them were shocked to realize that it was dark outside the house, Lin Mu'er rubbed his swollen head, a little tired: "It's not early, the rest is pretty much the same, you can see if it's in charge!" ”

"Yes!" Meiyue nodded, hesitated, and asked again: "Master, where you went, how do you look at this account book?" ”

Although Lin Muer has a lot of trust in Meiyue, the main family still has to pass the purpose of the monthly accounts, one to prevent mistakes and omissions; Second, this account is beautifully done, and it is also a kind of show of loyalty to the master.

"I'll discuss this matter with the prince." Lin Mu'er couldn't make up her mind for a while, after all, the royal land could not be entered and exited at will, not to mention, the emperor only allowed King Jin to dig a small pond in the middle of nowhere, so it seemed that in that place, the movement was even more restricted.

"Good! The slave and maid retired first! Seeing that the master did not respond immediately, Meiyue retreated first.

Under the flickering candlelight, Lin Mu'er leaned lightly on the back of the chair, exhaled a slight breath of turbidity, and just watched Hongxing on the side tidying up the table.

Seeing that the master's expression was sluggish, Hongxing knew that the master was also lacking on this day, so she smiled and whispered: "The master wants to pass the meal?" Hot water has already been prepared on the stove, and after eating, take a hot bath to relieve fatigue? ”

Lin Mu'er came back to her senses, only smiled and nodded, and asked softly, "Is the prince awake?" ”

Hongxing shrank her head, cautiously leaned over and glanced at the inner room, and mysteriously approached Lin Mu'er, and lowered her voice: "I've woken up a long time ago, but, the slave and maid look, the prince doesn't seem to be very happy today, with a cold face, looking weird and scary!" ”

"Oh?" Lin Mu'er was a little curious, it was rare for Hongxing to have such a strange appearance on weekdays, seeing her so cautious, she didn't know what kind of temper Gu Moyan had, and she made such an honest girl change her temperament!

"But it's nothing, the prince is a cold temperament, maybe you are not in the house today, the slave maid and the green orange are waiting in front of the prince, looking at the prince's cold face, I always feel that I have done something wrong, and I don't know where to put my hands and feet!" As she spoke, Hongxing was a little embarrassed to pull the broken hair around her ears, and lowered her head with a red face.

"You!" Lin Mu'er is a little funny, Gu Moyan is a person, and after getting along these days, he doesn't think it's it

It's hard to get along, most of the time, quietly read a book or deal with things, and there is no sound for a long time, sometimes it's not so fierce, but I don't feel that there is someone around. Although he has no smiling face coldly, he is not a tyrannical and unreasonable master, but he is delicate and thoughtful.

"It's not too early this day, and the prince woke up, so he brought the food." Seeing the cramped appearance of Hongxing's face, Lin Mu'er couldn't bear to make fun of this honest girl anymore, so she only ordered to pass the meal, but she got up and walked to the inner room.

Finally, I couldn't resist the guilt in my heart, and quietly climbed up to another chapter......
