Chapter 218: Reckoning

Going out from the main building to the north, a few people got into a carriage and walked straight south from the alley in the middle of Ning Rong's second mansion, and then returned to the east courtyard gate of Jia Yu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"I saw that you asked for the drawings from Jia Zhen, don't you have any ideas?"

Lin Lan got out of the car, asked Yingchun and Tanchun to enter the East Courtyard first to see Xing's, and stepped into the study with Jia Yu. "I heard that the Grand View Garden cost more than 100,000 taels of silver in the Rong Mansion, does Daddy know about this?"

Jia Yu nodded and said: "I don't know anything about the project, but if I want to come to Rongfu to have Feng Yatou and your Lian brothers, this Jia Zhen can't be adulterated, so naturally she won't cheat her own family." ā€

This is a carefree old man, presumably now let Jia Yu go to the street to buy vegetables, one or two silver and a cabbage, he dares to pay for silver.

Lin Lan said: "I don't know much about the specific matters of the cost, but not long ago, the staff on the palace came to me and said that I was asked to donate some big Buddha, and I opened my mouth to be 10,000 taels of silver, and also said that Ning Rong's second mansion donated a total of eight big Buddhas." ā€

"Eighty thousand taels? Holy, how did I not know about this? Jia Yu was so shocked that he suddenly stood up, with indescribable consternation on his face. This 80,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, if it is from the account office, there is no reason why there will be no movement in this house, the only possibility is to move on the project of the Grand View Garden.

Jia Yu sat back in his chair and muttered: "I just said that this garden originally had a foundation, why is there so much silver, and the feelings are diverted for other purposes, these people are really bold!" He was so angry that he almost broke the teacup.

Lin Lan said: "Don't make a noise about pardoning Daddy, let's take a look at what the old lady and Daddy Zheng mean, if they are all in the dark, then this matter will be said." ā€

Jia Yu raised his eyelids and said, "What you said makes sense." This time you really helped me a lot, and they all said that I, the big man who didn't care about anything, was a moth in the house, and this time I wanted to see who ate inside and out, and gave favors with silver! ā€

After Lin Lan and Jia Yu talked a few words, they went out of the East Courtyard, thinking that the New Year was approaching, and the Rong Mansion must be busy with the affairs of the Shangyuan Festival, and maybe the year would not be good, so they were ready to go to the West Courtyard to take Daiyu back to the Lin Mansion.

Of course, by the way, I tried to find out if Jia Mu knew about donating the Buddha. Jia Yu and this old lady have never dealt with each other, since the big quarrel when Yingchun got married, he rarely came to the West Courtyard, it is estimated that he asked a hundred questions, Jia's mother's side, Jia Yu discussed with him, and it was better for Lin Lan to come out for an interview.

Seeing Lin Lan coming, the housekeeper Lai Da came up and said, "Say hello to my uncle." ā€

"What advice does Steward Lai have?"

Lai Da smiled and said, "Now the ladies and grandmothers in the house use the soap in your shop. These things are all small purchases, I don't know if my uncle can give me a face and give some spare? ā€

"What do you want?" Lin Lan didn't bother to pay attention to the rat lying in the rice warehouse like this, but this Lai Danai was the head of the Rong Mansion's accounts, except for Wang Xifeng, I am afraid that it belonged to him, and he knew the ins and outs of every amount of silver.

As soon as Lai Da heard that there was a play, he smiled and said: "Don't let you lose money, the grandmothers in our house use the best soap in your shop, that is, when purchasing, can you send some inferior white soap, and also give it to us?" When this winter comes, my girl's hands are cracked. ā€

Lin Lan smiled: "This is easy to say. When you go to the shop, just give me my name. I will say hello in advance, and the most suitable goods will be given to you. ā€

Lai Da was overjoyed and said, "Then thank you, sir." ā€

When Mother Jia saw the spring and the spring, she couldn't help but shush and ask for warmth, is this Lin Mansion eating well? Are you used to living there? It seems that Lin Lan married them back and abused them or something.

When the conversation was almost over, Lin Lan put down the tea and said, "The old lady trusts the Buddha? ā€

"Hehe, I believe it more or less, but not as much as your aunt."

Lin Lan asked, "Is it Mrs. Wang or Mrs. Xing?" ā€

"Naturally, it's your second aunt."

"That's a coincidence. A few days ago, a lobbyist came to the door, and he had to ask me to donate a Buddha statue, saying that he was invited from the ancient temple of Chang'an. ā€

Jia Mu wiped the tea stains on the corner of her mouth and said with a smile: "Don't bother with that, the Buddhist hall at home is all available, and if you invite it again, I'm afraid that the Buddha will sleep on the streets." ā€

Lin Lan looked at Jia's mother like this, she didn't look like she was in the know, so she didn't say any more, and said: "This Yuan Concubine Niangniang came back to save her relatives during the Yuan Festival, and there are not many days to prepare, the house is busy up and down, and now several mothers in the family miss it tightly, old lady, you can't avoid picking up the people in the palace here, I want to take Daiyu back, after this year, another thing to say." ā€

Jia Mu thought about it, but was embarrassed to refuse, and said, "It's okay." Let Emerald go in and ask what your sister means. ā€

Yingchun and the two hurriedly got up, and had already received Lin Lan's order, and said, "Don't trouble the old ancestor, just let us go in." I haven't seen Daiyu's sister for a long time, and I miss it tightly. ā€

Jia Mu nodded her finger and said with a smile: "I still want to keep Daiyu for a while, it's good for the two of you, turn your elbows out, and listen to your husband's words." ā€

Yingchun and the two walked in with a smile.

After a while, the two helped Daiyu out. Lin Lan frowned and asked, "Why are you crying?" ā€

Yingchun said: "It's awkward to have trouble with Baoyu for a sachet." ā€

Lin Lan frowned and said, "Sachet? ā€

Mother Jia made Lin Lan's face gradually difficult to look at, so she quipped: "There must be some misunderstanding in the child's family." Come on, come on, come to the old grandmother, and the old grandmother will give you a reason! ā€

Before Daiyu could speak, this Baoyu ran in.

"Good sister, when did I say that I gave your sachet to my subordinates? Take a closer look, this sachet was made by you, didn't you? Don't cry. ā€

Jia Mu understood what was going on, so she smiled and said, "Look, isn't there no contradiction in this." Ouch, you two always love to make trouble. ā€

Lin Lan, who was sitting on the side, was a little puzzled, and asked Baoyu, "When did this sachet come to you?" ā€

"What? Does this have anything to do with you? ā€

Lin Lan's eyes widened, and she shouted, "My girl, I didn't come here to ask you to bully!" Let's go, I still want Daiyu to come over in the future, but the old lady still doesn't have to open his mouth! ā€

He took Daiyu's arm and walked outside.

"Hey, Lin Lan, ......"

"Good sister, why are you leaving again!"

Lin Lan didn't allow the two ancestors and grandchildren to **** and pull Daiyu away from the verandah.

"Brother, don't be angry, it's all my fault, I'm in a hurry, this is a resentful brother."

Lin Lan's face was blue, and he shouted: "How many times have I talked to you, don't have any dealings with him, I am looking forward to your good, why don't you listen to persuasion?" Don't come here to sell tears! ā€

Yingchun and Tanchun hurriedly abandoned the wasteland to keep up with the car, and persuaded the side, but they couldn't stand Lin Lan's categorical attitude. Baoyu chased after him, and Lin Lan said, "Go!" ā€

The groom whipped and the cart drove away.

Only Baoyu was left in place, whimpering and gasping in a hurry. (To be continued.) )
