Chapter 36: Act Now

Aunt Fang and housekeeper Lin Lun arranged a place for Jia Rui and the others, even if Jia Rui settled down in the Lin Mansion.

Then Jia Rui talked to Zijuan first.

Not to mention the Lin family, at least in the Jia family, in addition to the ancestors, if there is one person who is really good to Lin Daiyu, it is Zijuan.

Only she is good to Daiyu wholeheartedly and is like a sister.

Therefore, Zijuan's words, Jia Rui believes.

As for the snow geese, they are relatively young and do not seem to have much presence. Although she has followed Daiyu since she was a child, she is just a maid and has no skills. Even if she wanted to help Daiyu, there was nothing she could do.

"Uncle Rui, please forgive me, it seems that there is no hope for my aunt. Now these people are thinking about the family property, just waiting for the day when the aunt is breathing. ”

"Miss is also a person who has no ideas, and cries all day long. Although Aunt Fang is not bad, it doesn't count if she says it, as for Second Master Lian, alas, it's okay not to say it. ”

"At present, there is no one to call the shots for Miss, since the ancestor called you here, it is best to make a decision about the matter here as soon as possible."

"In my opinion, my aunt is just hanging on to his breath, and there are no one who knows today. If the arrangements for the aftermath are clear, he will leave with peace of mind and save himself from sin. ”

Sure enough, it was Hui Zijuan, it was rare for her to see things so clearly.

"Alas, the matter is not so easy. The old ancestor called me here, that is, to assist Second Brother Lian. If he doesn't come out, it's hard for me to say anything, and it's hard for me to do anything directly. ”

It's not that Jia Rui doesn't believe Zijuan, it's just that his plan is very important and can't be leaked in any way. So I can't tell the truth with Zijuan.

"Alas, Second Master Lian ......."

Zijuan finally didn't say anything.

After looking for Zijuan, I found Aunt Fang and Xue Yan, that is, to chat casually, understand some situations, and not touch on sensitive topics.

When the snow geese went out, Jia Rui went out of the house and wandered around the yard casually.

The yard is very large, full of rockeries and fake waters, pavilions and pavilions.

When Jia Yun saw Jia Rui coming out, she also followed.

"Uncle Rui, Miss Lin and Zijuan have just gone out."

"This is her home, what's so strange about going out for a walk."

"The people of the Lin family are a little strange, when they came over just now, several people were talking, and they vaguely sounded as if they were talking about family property."

"Other people's affairs have nothing to do with us. The matter here is handled by Second Brother Lian, let's not be nosy. ”

"Didn't the old ancestor ask you to help deal with it too?"

"That being said, is Second Brother Lian close to the Lin family, or am I close to the Lin family?"

"Naturally, it's Second Brother Lian. This Lin family looks rich. ”

"How much money you have is also someone else's, and it has nothing to do with us. Tomorrow you're going out and starting a poker business. Jiangnan has money and a large population, and the poker business must be better than in the north. ”

"I see, why don't I go out for a walk right now."

"It's okay, come back early in the evening and eat here."

Jia Yun left, and Jia Rui then walked around the courtyard, noting down the roads and main buildings here.

This is also a habit of his, when he arrives in a new place, he always has to familiarize himself with the environment first. Especially here in Lin Mansion, there are some big things to do here in the next few days, and it is even more necessary to grasp the environment here.

After turning around for half an hour, Jia Rui said hello to the housekeeper Lin Lun, saying that he was going out for a walk, so he took Wang San out of the official residence of the Imperial History of Salt Patrol and came to the street.

He did not leave immediately, but hid next to the gate.

At this moment, two subordinates hurriedly came out of it, stood at the door and looked around for a while, and hurriedly chased towards the east.

"Young master, these two people seem to be subordinates in the mansion."

"I know, they're spying on us and want to see where we're going."

"Still spying on us? This aunt's house is a little strange. ”

"Wang San, you go to the east, catch up with the two of them, don't get too close, so that they can see it, you go to the market to hang out, and Shen Shixu will go back by himself."

"Young Master means to let me contain them, you go elsewhere?"

This Wang San, okay, is quite clever.

"Yes, that's what it means. If anyone asks you, they will say that we are separated in the bazaar, and we don't know where I have been. When the time came, I also went back. ”

"Young master, don't worry, I can do this."

The king went to the east, and Jia Rui went west.

After walking two teas, I arrived at Lion Street. Just arrived at the corner of the street, Zijuan came out.

"Uncle Rui, Miss has arrived, please follow me."

Jia Rui followed Zijuan, turned left and right on the narrow street, and finally stopped at the gate of a small courtyard and pushed the door in.

Daiyu and a middle-aged man in his forties were sitting under a tree drinking tea.

"This is Big Brother Rui, sent by the ancestors. Brother Rui, this is Mr. Luo. I have been in charge of the accounts for my family for more than ten years. ”

"Mr. Luo, fortunately, fortunately, this time it depends on your care."

"Uncle Rui is polite, the lord has the grace of knowing me, and the little one can now have a family business to settle down, all because of the lord. Now the old man is seriously ill, and the little one is also very anxious. Miss's business is a small thing. If Uncle Rui has any orders, just ask. ”

"I can't talk about any orders, and I won't ask you to do anything very dangerous, just talk to you casually about the Lin family's accounts."

"It's right for you to find me about this, don't look at what someone is talking about, the Lin family's accounts, no one knows better than the small one."

"After Second Master Lian arrived here, did he check the accounts?"

"Nope."

"After Master Lin fell ill, did anyone else ask to check the accounts? For example, the housekeeper, the relatives of the Lin family, the clansmen, or the people in the yamen? ”

"The master has a good reputation in the yamen, and he has no enemies. Even if the government checks the accounts, it will only check the public accounts on the side of the yamen, and will not check the homes. A few people approached me to check the accounts of the house. ”

"Who are they?"

If Jia Lian wants to see the accounts, it should be, and it is beyond reproach. But when others want to look at the accounts at this time, it's a little abnormal.

"Steward Lin, Gongzi Zhou, Miss's cousin Lin Rushui, and three other clansmen."

"Steward Lin has the right to check the accounts in normal times?"

"No, no one else has the right to see it. Except for the occasional look at the old man, no one has looked at the accounts over the years. ”

"Who is this Zhou Gongzi?"

"The son-in-law of the old cousin's family is also a gentleman who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it."

After chatting at Mr. Luo's house for more than an hour, Jia Rui said goodbye and left to go back.

When I passed by the gate of the Imperial Salt Patrol Palace, I didn't go in, so I continued to walk east. When they arrived at the market, they wandered around for a while and met Wang San, and the two returned to the Lin Mansion together.

As soon as I entered the instrument gate, I heard someone shouting.

"Brother Rui, you're finally back, and it's hard for me to wait."
