When I got out of the carriage, I saw that it was charred and black not far away, and the smell of burning cloth wafted in the air. Lin Yingxue walked around the burning place, and the skirt was stained with a layer of black ash.

"Send someone to call all the people in the dyeing shop, count all the losses, and bring me the orders that need to be shipped recently. Also, tell the guys who came over that all the people who are rushing to work these days are getting double their wages a day. Lin Yingxue frowned and calmly ordered, and when the little guy on the side saw this, it was as if he had taken a reassuring pill, and the anxiety on his face quickly faded.

After the little guy left, Lin Yingxue moved her gaze to a figure that shouldn't have appeared here.

"Miss Five." Another little guy who stayed here saw Lin Yingxue look at Zhang Su on the side, and he hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "It's this little brother who found out that something was wrong tonight and woke us up in time, otherwise when the fire spreads, our dyeing workshop may be over." ”

Cloth has always been the easiest to burn, almost as soon as it sees fire, and indeed as the little guy said, if the fire is not extinguished before it spreads, even if the people of the whole city come to help fight the fire, they may not be able to save this dyeing workshop.

Lin Yingxue didn't speak, but just glanced at Zhang Su carefully, only to see that Zhang Su was embarrassed, his face was full of black ash, his clothes and hair were burned by tongues of fire, and he looked a little miserable.

Zhang Su saw that Lin Yingxue was looking at him, he couldn't help but turn his head, his face was intertwined with humiliation and forbearance, which made his demeanor look a little weird.

The little guy on the side saw that Lin Yingxue hadn't spoken for a long time, so he kindly said: "This little brother also helped us a lot in the dyeing workshop before, and he is an acquaintance of our dyeing workshop." ”

The little guy's appreciation and gratitude for Zhang Su were beyond words, but Lin Yingxue's mood did not change much because of this - as Zhang Su, anyone who was known by anyone in the imperial city would either be tortured by the criminal department or killed by him.

Only she, in this imperial city, is the only one who can give him a new identity, not to mention helping him turn over, but at least it can make their family of three no longer suffer from displacement, so Zhang Su will be willing to endure such humiliation to please her.

Although she had originally planned to lure Zhang Su to the hook, it was not yet the time to start the rod, and she had to wait until the fish bit the hook to death.

"I see." Lin Yingxue responded lightly, turned her head indifferently and said to Di'er who followed behind her: "I won't go back tonight, you tell your mother about it tomorrow morning, and everything will be said after I go back." ”

In this way, the work went straight to the next morning. After Lin Yingxue returned to the Lin family, she didn't care about resting, and after a hurried wash, she followed the guidance of Yahuan to the old lady's yard.

The time to ask for peace has long passed, but most of the masters of the Lin family are still in the old lady's courtyard and have never left, even if they think with their toes, Lin Yingxue also knows that these people are waiting for her.

"I've seen my grandmother, my mother, my aunt and ......"

"How's the matter at the dyeing mill?"

After Lin Yingxue saw the ceremony one by one, the old lady didn't even let her sit down and asked about Lin Yingxue's cloth dyeing workshop.

So, Lin Yingxue had no choice but to roughly explain the situation last night, "...... Nearly 200 pieces of fabric were lost last night, and I have already instructed my subordinates to make up the quantity and cloth that need to be shipped recently, and then rush to make the rest of the order, so that my grandmother and mother can rest assured that last night's incident will not affect our shipments. ”

"Heh, how long has it been since I helped take care of the business before something like this happened! I said earlier that the fifth sister is young and can't afford to take on heavy responsibilities, but the eldest aunt still doesn't listen, and insists on letting the fifth sister help deal with things. Now it's okay, something has happened! Now we have only lost two hundred pieces of cloth, and maybe one day we will have to compensate our Lin family! As soon as Lin Yingxue's words fell, Lin Yingmeng couldn't wait to count her.

And after hearing this, the old lady nodded in agreement, "Yingxue is indeed younger, and the loss caused this time is ......."

"The dyeing workshop is a dowry brought by the daughter-in-law from her mother's family, and after so many years of operation, there has been some accumulation, and the dyeing workshop can still afford this loss." Before the old lady finished speaking, Liu had already spoken.

The old lady's words were interrupted, and she couldn't help but turn her head to look at the Liu family - the people next to her were not telling her that the dyeing workshop was a big house, and how to toss it was a big house, and it couldn't involve the entire Lin family.

Liu's protection made the old lady a little dissatisfied, and she saw that the old lady sank her face on the spot, "Hmph, if there is no protection from the Lin family for so many years, can the business of the big house outside be managed so well?" It's my wife who talks too much, and I shouldn't ask more about the big house! ”

Liu didn't expect such a small sentence to provoke such a big reaction from the old lady, so she had to hurriedly slow down her tone and said, "Mother, you misunderstood what your daughter-in-law meant. The daughter-in-law just thought that Yingxue was still young, and it was inevitable that something would go wrong in doing things, all of this was mainly because the daughter-in-law had to ask the child to try it, but now that something happened, things have naturally been resisted by the daughter-in-law, and she can't complain about the child. ”

The eldest lady is worthy of being the person who often serves by the old lady's side, and after a bunch of good words, the old lady's face finally returned to normal again.

However, the old lady is not such a good person to send - Lin Yingxue only got away dizzily after listening to the admonition in the old lady's courtyard for a whole morning.

It's just that before she walked out of the old lady's yard, Lin Yingmeng, who couldn't give Lin Yingxue a face just now, said unwillingly: "I heard that some people don't know how to lift, and they don't weigh how many catties and taels they have, and they actually want to seduce the Fifth Highness, and they still ask the Fifth Highness for a reward in the store, it's really shameless!" ”

Lin Yingmeng and Lin Yingling walked in front, Lin Yingxue and the eldest lady followed behind the two a few steps behind, everyone knew who these words were meant for.

When the eldest lady heard Lin Yingmeng's blatant arrangement of Lin Yingxue, her face changed on the spot, and Lin Yingxue was busy all night last night, and this morning she was delayed by the old lady for a long time, she was already very tired, and she didn't want to have any conflict between Lin Yingmeng and the two at this moment, so she quietly took the eldest lady's hand and signaled that the eldest lady didn't need to stand up for her.

And Lin Yingmeng saw that Lin Yingxue didn't respond, so she couldn't help but say more and more proudly: "Third sister, this golden hairpin on your head was given by His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness, it's really good-looking!" If you want me to say, some people just don't have self-knowledge, and the Fifth Highness can hook up with anyone! ”

"Yingmeng is not good at anything else, but this mouth is getting more and more powerful." The eldest lady listened to those unbearable words floating over one by one, if it was her own, it would be fine, but since it was Lin Yingxue, then she couldn't bear it.

The eldest lady pulled Lin Yingxue to walk a few steps quickly and stopped beside Lin Yingmeng, she glanced at Lin Yingmeng lightly, her usual gentle eyebrows and eyes were rare and sharp, "Yingmeng's opening and closing is 'seducing', 'hooking up, which is what a young lady should say?" It must be those ignorant maids at the bottom who chew their tongues every day, and they have no place to bring Yingmeng to ruin! ”

"And as the saying goes, each flower has its own beauty, and no one is inferior to a few young ladies in this house, whether the five highnesses are willing to like Yingling or who, that's all the business of the five highnesses. I don't know if the Fifth Highness would be angry if he heard that someone was talking about his actions behind his back. ”

The eldest lady also came from when she was a daughter, how can she not understand the turmoil between the families of several younger daughters? It's just because she got married and became a housewife, so her temperament has been restrained a little, if it's really more real, how many people in this house can be her opponents?

What's more, the eldest lady is right, compared with Lin Yingling and Lin Yingling and others in the past, the difference was only one person, but now Lin Yingxue has passed to the big house, which is the daughter of the big house, compared with Lin Yingling who has no Song family as a backer, it is really not bad at all! So even Lin Yingxue couldn't figure out where Lin Yingmeng's current self-righteous superiority came from.

After being choked by the eldest lady, Lin Yingmeng opened her mouth, and she couldn't say a word in her mouth for a long time.

"Let's go." The eldest lady also accepted it when she saw it, and pulled Lin Yingxue to leave with her head held high.

Then along the way, the eldest lady kept a straight face and did not speak, until she entered Mo Yunxuan, and only the two 'mother and daughter' were left in the house, and the eldest lady said with a solemn face: "Yingxue, I know that you have always disliked having more rights and wrongs, but sometimes your forbearance will only make some people kick their noses in the face, and your mother will back you up, you just have to say it in the future, just do it, no matter what happens, your mother will bear the ...... for you."

The eldest lady rarely spoke to Lin Yingxue in such a serious tone, but every word the eldest lady said today was from the bottom of her heart.

Lin Yingxue was moved in her heart, she pursed her lips and smiled, and nodded at the eldest lady, "Mother rest assured, Yingxue will definitely not live up to her mother's hard work." ”

Seeing that Lin Yingxue understood what she meant, the eldest lady couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then said: "I heard that someone deliberately did it this time, Yingxue, you must find out about this matter, otherwise I don't know what tricks the people behind this curtain will play in the future." ”

When it came to the fire in the dyeing workshop, the eldest lady did not blame Lin Yingxue in the slightest, but analyzed the situation for Lin Yingxue with a worried face.

"Mother rest assured, I will definitely send someone to investigate this matter, as for the loss of the dyeing workshop......"

"Yingxue, you don't have to say this." The eldest lady interrupted Lin Yingxue's words, and a kind smile appeared on her face again, "Yingxin has already married, I have already given her everything that should be given, as for you, there are not many things that your mother can leave you, if you marry in the future, you can take away all the property in your mother's name." Then there are a few years left for you, and we don't have the same background as other young ladies, so there is only this bit of industry left for you to toss. ”

"If you have the ability yourself, you will grow this inheritance, and these industries will be the confidence after you get married. If you don't feel that you have much talent in business, then arrange for the people below to take care of these industries and keep them as they were. ”

The eldest lady's face was full of sincerity.

When she began to enter the big house, Lin Yingxue was just happy that she had finally gotten rid of the name of a concubine, but the eldest lady really regarded her as her own daughter, and Lin Yingxue couldn't remember how long she hadn't experienced this kind of motherly care.

"Okay." A thousand words are reduced to just one word.
