Chapter 241: Accountability (II)

Reprimanded Gu Yutang for a long time, seeing that Gu Yutang kept her head down and didn't defend herself, Lin thought in her heart that she already knew that she was wrong, so she said.

"Tang'er, you are the girl of the long house, the meat of your grandmother's heart, you have touched your grandmother Feng's brow now, although she didn't say anything on her face, but what about her heart? I'm afraid I'll hate you a long time ago. She has the heart to take back the pair of cards in Cai's hand, why do you want to help Cai's? ”

Lin Shi said again one after another, Gu Yutang only thought that it was in the left ear and out of the right ear, and did not take it to heart.

has lived in the second room for many days, and she also knows the bad things in the second room, which is much more than the long room. She didn't mean to get involved in these bad things in the second room, she just looked at Cai's pity and intended to help her.

Cai's family doesn't have much time to live, if she still suffers from the idleness of those slaves below, then she is afraid that she will not be so at ease in the last few days.

And that Mrs. Zhao, deceived her superiors and subordinates, not only used her power for personal gain, but also swallowed the silver she bought many times through the errand of the mother-in-law in the big kitchen. The monthly money of the little maids who served at the bottom was also deducted by her. Punishing such a person, she can be regarded as doing a good thing.

Besides, that Ma Ci, who has served in the second room for so many years, even though the steward who has been serving is lawless, knowing that Mrs. Zhao has embezzled the purchased silver, and without dissuasion, she also used her power for personal gain.

Although he is an old man in the house, he is not very good at his errands, but his temper is quite big.

Gu Yutang said these things in her heart, she didn't dare to say these things to the Lin family. If Lin knew what she was thinking in her heart, then what would it do?

Mama Liang and Ah Hua brought in the spring rolls and spring cakes and put them on the high table beside Lin.

Subsequently, the maid who was waiting in the pantry brought in the freshly brewed cloud tea, and Gu Yutang took the tea cup in Mama Liang's hand and personally served it to Lin's hand.

"Grandmother, knowing that you don't like to drink Shou Mei these days, Tang'er specially instructed the maid who was waiting in the pantry to brew this Lushan cloud mist for you. If you taste it carefully, the water for making tea is still the morning dew on the plum blossoms. ”

Lin took the teacup handed over by Gu Yutang and took half a sip gently. When I lifted the tea lid, I smelled a faint plum fragrance, hidden in the thick tea fragrance. The tea is very light, and there is not much plum fragrance, but when it is savored, the plum fragrance jumps out along the tip of the tongue.

Seeing that there was a faint smile on Lin's face, Gu Yutang dared to take Lin's hand and go to the soft pillow under the window.

When I opened the closed window, I smelled a faint fragrance of plum wafting in, the fragrance of plum was neither strong nor light, it was very refreshing. Gu Yutang took a soft pillow made of soft gold thread, put it on the soft couch, and waited for Lin to sit down.

Knowing that her grandmother liked plum blossoms, Tang'er specially instructed the gardener in the flower house to move a few plum trees raised in the greenhouse in Grandmother Feng's back garden and plant them in the yard. When my grandmother opened the window, she could smell the fragrance of plums all over the house. ”

As Gu Yutang spoke, a wind suddenly blew off from outside the house, blowing down a few petals on the plum tree that had just been transplanted and falling on the high table of the sour branch wood.

Lin didn't speak, and turned his head to look at his granddaughter. The granddaughter has grown up and has her own ideas, and it's not good to keep her around like this.

When the time is right, it's time for her to start preparing for her marriage, and the scenery will marry her off.

Taking advantage of the time when Gu Yutang went to the small kitchen to serve milk tea, the Lin family specially called Ah Hua to his side and asked a few words, "Ah Hua, has the Jiang family brother come to your girl these days?" Did you send someone to bring something? Is there a correspondence?"

Lin asked urgently, and Ah Hua also answered quickly.

"Old lady, the son of the Jiang family asked the stone brother to send things to our house at the end of three days, first snacks, and then those delicate gadgets, after the girl got tired of those gadgets, the son of the Jiang family called someone to send the popular scripts on the market today.

The east and west chambers are so close that there is no correspondence. ”

Old Madam Lin is not her own girl, Ah Hua naturally has to be cautious when she speaks. I was afraid that I would be reprimanded by Mrs. Lin for saying that unpleasant words.

"Hearing you say that, that Jiang brother is really a good Erlang. In addition to sending those things, did he come to see your girl in person? When they meet, do they talk? If so, what are they saying?"

Old Madam Lin wanted to understand Jiang Zhiming thoroughly, so she had to ask Ah Hua more, and she had to ask clearly and clearly.

Hearing the old lady's question in such detail, Ah Hua thought about it in his mind before he said.

"Old lady, the son of the Jiang family will come to see the girl early in the morning, and the girl is lying in the house before she wakes up at that time. The son of the Jiang family waited until the girl woke up and saw the girl in person before he was willing to leave.

There were times when the girl slept until three o'clock in the morning, and the sun shone in, and the girl woke up. I thought that the son of the Jiang family would not be able to wait to leave, but I didn't think about it, the son of the Jiang family was still waiting outside, and he was cold and had a runny nose, and he refused to leave. ”

Before coming to the hall, Gu Yutang had told Ah Hua. Explain to her, no matter what Mrs. Lin asks, she has to say it on the good side, if Mrs. Lin asks about the son of the Jiang family, she will tell the truth, and she must not add oil and vinegar to it, and she must say the same nonsense.

Ah Hua listened to his girl's words honestly this time, and told Mrs. Lin truthfully.

"That's it! After a while, I returned to Chengjiang, and I discussed it with your wife and decided the marriage of your girl. The marriage of the four girls has been decided, and the four girls are younger than your girls, so they can't go ahead of your girls. ”

Lin said, his face already smiling from ear to ear.

In fact, in her own heart, she also likes Jiang Zhiming, the grandson aunt.

Just for the sake of Tang'er's lifelong events, she had to take a good look at each other!

In the back room, Feng Lao'an leaned on the big pillow behind him, his face was a little bad, as if he had been angry. The Qi family on the side also looked trembling, holding the tiger in his arms, and he didn't dare to breathe.

The maid in the pantry brought up the new tea, and before she could put it on the high table, she heard Feng Laoanren's face was wrong, and she reprimanded, "Didn't I order it to go down?" No one is allowed to come in without my command. ”

The maid was new, so she didn't wait in the house, and she didn't hear Feng Lao'an's orders. As soon as I came back, I was called over to deliver tea, but I didn't expect to be reprimanded.

Fortunately, the maid was still an interesting person, and without saying much, she quickly withdrew with the tea tray in her hand.

Seeing that the appearance on Feng Lao'an's face was becoming more and more difficult to look at, Qi was bold and persuaded him.

"Auntie, don't hurt yourself for those two unworthy subordinates. And Mrs. Zhao was greedy for the silver purchased by the big kitchen in front of her, no less than hundreds of taels, and the eldest lady called Ya Po to come in, and it was common sense to sell her. ”

Seeing that the Qi family had the courage to persuade him, the swift on the side followed and said a few words, "Old lady, Steward Ma was beaten thirty boards by Mrs. Cai's shouting, and now he is lying in the yard shouting, but what should I do?"
