Chapter 256: Synergy
Lychee smiled, ignoring the sludge on her hand, took her hand and stuffed the bag of money into her personally: "This is purely my grandmother's emergency use for you, and it is not included in the compensation." You may not know who my second grandfather and grandmother are. I'll tell you, and you'll know. My second grandfather, this year, brought the plough and the horse over, how much manpower and material resources have been saved, and he has never made half a penny because of this: my second grandmother, with a simple word, she has exempted the tenants from a certain amount of rent, how can she embarrass your orphans and widows? Seeing that the look on Widow Sun's face was relieved, Fang said, "Sister-in-law, I don't know where you are now, let's go talk together?" If you have any problems, just tell me. When he saw the pile of head-turning tiles, he smiled and beckoned the steward to come over: "Please ask a few people to clean up for Sister-in-law Sun, and go back to me for the salary." ”
Lu Lu didn't care too much about Lin Jinrong's suggestion.
He felt that no matter how capable the female stewards of the inner courtyard were, they also knew nothing about these things outside. It's okay to comfort and forgive, but if you really want to be the Lord and solve things, you still have to rely on the stewards of the outer court. But he couldn't casually refute Lin Jinrong's kindness, so he said, "You're right. But if she thinks that Widow Sun has her own husband's family or her mother's family, she will definitely ask those people to come forward and make decisions for her. That's not inconvenient. ”
What he said was the way to deal with it under normal circumstances, and it was understandable, but she knew that it would not please her. Lin Jinrong simply said: "Yes, the conduct of our housekeepers is trustworthy, and I hope she can meet a maiden brother like my uncle who only thinks about her own sisters, and I hope she will not meet an evil uncle who fishes in troubled waters and takes the opportunity to bully orphans and widows." Amitabha, the Bodhisattva is assured. ”
This was a bit ironic, and when Lychee heard it on the side, she wanted to laugh and was worried, so she couldn't help but glance at Lu Lu secretly. But seeing Lu Mu pursing his lips and looking at Lin Jinrong, Lin Jinrong looked at him as if he was fine, with an innocent face.
Lu Lu was a little helpless: "Hugh thinks too much, although it is rare to see people like my uncle, but there are not so many bad people." I know what is going on outside, and I must choose someone I can trust to do it. I depend on you, you are more familiar with the mother-in-law in the inner courtyard than me, who do you think is more suitable to go? "A woman always has to be careful and soft-hearted, she thinks it's good, so it's like this. There's no need to be angry about this.
He thought she was trying to make her happy. Lin Jinrong said with a straight face: "I guess you think I am a woman's heart. But I just remember that if you put yourself in your shoes and be careful, you will never suffer.
It is not easy for orphans and widows, if they can make their own decisions, who would want to ask for help? Just like me, if I can show up and take care of my makeup myself, why should I always bother others? It's just a little trouble for you," but it's a big deal for her. ”
When Lu Mian heard her say this, he gradually lost his expression, got up and bowed deeply to her, and said, "Ah Rong, you are very right" I was not thoughtful. ”
Lin Jinrong didn't expect him to be like this, and then thought, he was doing him a favor, what was it for him to give himself a salute?
Lychee hurriedly poured a cup of tea for the two of them, and said with a smile: "The second master and grandma are really respectful of each other."
Lu Yi smiled, handed the tea to Lin Jinrong, and asked again, "Ah Rong, who do you think is better?" ”
Lin Jinrong looked at Lychee: "Let her go." ”
Lychee was taken aback and pointed to her house in disbelief: "Grandma is joking, right?" ”
Lu Lu also wondered, although Lychee is capable, but it has not gone through anything, a young woman who was born and grew up in the inner courtyard "Even if it is Fangzhu, it is much more suitable."
"Yes, that's her. She's the one next to me, and she's safe, and there's no better person than her. Lin Jinrong has made up his mind, for the future, it is not good for Lychee to read the accounts and settle the accounts, and he has to learn to stand alone, and now is a good opportunity.
Lychee was a little apprehensive, and a little excited, but Lu Mingtong disagreed. Lu Lu was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, I ordered a powerful person to protect her." ”
Lin Jinrong reminded him half-jokingly and half-seriously: "I'm just afraid that someone will joke with you, saying that you have to be a husband and wife together for such a thing." This is a euphemism, to put it bluntly, it is a joke that he is useless, and he needs his wife to help him with such a thing, which is a shame.
Lu Mu said lightly: "I will answer him, this is your kindness and thoughtfulness." ”
Lin Jinrong was speechless for a while, got up and said, "Sleep, I'm tired." ”
The next day, Lin Jinrong called Lizhi and carefully instructed, "Fang asked her to go out with Lu Xuan." But he thought that someone would say this, and Lin Yuzhen would definitely be uncomfortable again at that time1
went to find Lin Yuzhen and took the initiative to mention the matter: "On a cold day, it is not easy for orphans and widows, and others can come to the door to find them if they are not good, but she is a woman's house, but it is not easy for her to go out, and some people have to avoid suspicion." Grandfather gave the second master this opportunity to show his face, saying that it is not big, but it is not small, we have to take the opportunity to support the reputation of the long house, a good name is better than a bad name. ”
Although Lin Yuzhen didn't take it seriously, because it wasn't a big deal, she didn't take it to heart and followed Lin Jinrong's wishes. Sure enough, Lychee had only been out for half an hour, and she already knew about it inside and out, and soon someone secretly rumored that Lin Jinrong's hand was too long and too wide, and Lu Mian was too indulgent to her.
When Mrs. Lu heard about this, she smiled faintly, dialed her beloved upside-down sparrow, and praised Fan: "She knows how to build momentum for herself." "This kind of thing happens three or two times, and the reputation of the second grandmother of the Lu family for being kind and thoughtful is going to become more and more famous, and based on this alone, Lin Jinrong is much more shrewd than the Lu family.
Fan Bao smiled: "It's not a bad thing." ”
Old lady Lu replied: "I hope she can do a good job of helping this virtuous person." "Lin Jinrong has a good reputation, and he can bring benefits to Lu Lu and even the entire Lu family, of course he won't care. And it's small
The husband and wife work together and discuss things, which is the result he is happy to see, and he will not care.
The rumors blew like the wind for a while, and when they saw that the second elder of the Lu family and Lin Yuzhen had no reaction, they dissipated without a trace.
Although the snow has stopped, the weather has not cleared, on the contrary, it has become colder. The snow on the side of the street on the top of the wall was frozen and white, but the snow in the middle of the street that had been trampled on by people and cars turned into water, mixed with the sludge, and turned into a muddy pool. It's dirty.
Widow Sun couldn't care about this, the grocery store that she and her only son relied on for a living was burned down by a fire in the Lu family's shop, and only half of the ruins and a few sorglets were left, seeing that food and clothing were about to run out, so how could she not be in a hurry.
Even if the Lu family promised to compensate her, she didn't know how much she could come back, and it was not uncommon for her to bully others. So early in the morning, she set out from the house of a relative, where she was staying, and took her thirteen-year-old son, Hutou, through the mud on the street, and walked to the ruins of her shop and house to stand still, wanting to find out how many bricks, tiles, and wood that had not been burned out were still usable, so that she had to put them away so that they would not be taken by others.
The mother and son were looking for it, and at the same time piled up the bricks and tiles that could be used, although they were not rich and noble, they had never done these hard labors, and soon they could not support it. Hutou felt sorry for Widow Sun, so he said: "Mother, forget it, you can't save much hard work like this." ”
Widow Sun cried: "Save a little is a little, this is the only thing your father left us, and in the future, I will rely on it to marry you, and now a fire will burn out." ”
Suddenly, a man dressed in gray came over, stood there and watched for a while, and raised his voice to greet the tiger head: "Little brother, this homestead belongs to your family?" ”
Tiger Head nodded: "It's my family." ”
The man laughed: "Your shop is closest to the Lu family" I heard that his family plans to buy it and expand his shop. If you want to find someone, don't forget to go to the front street to find me, my surname is the department, and the person who is called the seventh person in the department is, and I will ask for a good price for you. ”
The tiger head responded stupidly, and Widow Sun spat out: "Phew! Who said we were going to sell? Get lost! ”
The old seven didn't think it was wrong" smiled and went away.
Widow Sun was indignant: "This is a matter of breaking people's foundations, don't sell it!" Nothing sells. I will rebuild it and leave it to you in the future, so that I can have the face to see your father. ”
Tiger Head said: "What if his family must buy it?" What are we going to do? The second cousin said, "We can't afford to mess with the Lu family at all." ”
Widow Sun was silent for a long time, and said hatefully: "Then I will die to show them!" ”
Suddenly, I heard a woman say softly and softly on the side: "This sister-in-law is surnamed Sun?" ”
Widow Sun stopped and looked at the comer. The person who came wore a bean blue hooded cloak, an autumn-colored satin cotton jacket, a cyan embroidered huā cotton skirt, and a gold pendant hanging on his ears. There was also a woman wearing a green cloth skirt and a silver hairpin in her hair, and a carriage was parked not far away, and the coachman and a man who looked like a rich man were talking in a low voice.
Widow Sun suddenly became vigilant: "Who are you?" What are you doing? ”
The woman smiled: "I am the girl next to the second grandmother of the Lu family, called Lychee." My second grandmother heard that you are an orphan and a widow, and it is not easy to sympathize with you, "Let me come to see you for her." As he spoke, he motioned to the woman to hand over a money bag: "I'm really embarrassed that you are so tired that you are homeless." Please take this money for emergency first, and when other matters are properly discussed, my second master will order someone to send the money over. ”
Widow Sun doesn't accept money" and said sensitively: "What do you want to be abundant?" I'm never going to sell a shop. ”
Lychee remembered Lin Jinrong's instructions before going out, and hurriedly asked, "Who said they wanted to buy your shop?" My master didn't say that. Sister-in-law Sun, tell me quickly, who borrowed the name of my master and said nonsense, "I have given the master of the house, and I will not spare him!" ”
Widow Sun will be suspicious, but because of her own orphans and widows, she doesn't dare to say the old seven easily: "Whether you say it or not, it won't be sold." ”
Lychee smiled, ignoring the sludge on her hand, took her hand and stuffed the bag of money into her personally: "This is purely my grandmother's emergency use for you, and it is not included in the compensation." You may not know who my second grandfather and grandmother are. I'll tell you, and you'll know. My second grandfather, this year, brought the plough and the horse over, how much manpower and material resources have been saved, and he has never made half a penny because of this: my second grandmother, with a simple word, she has exempted the tenants from a certain amount of rent, how can she embarrass your orphans and widows? Seeing that the look on Widow Sun's face was relieved, Fang said, "Sister-in-law, I don't know where you are now, let's go talk together?" If you have any problems, just tell me. When he saw the pile of head-turning tiles, he smiled and beckoned the steward to come over: "Please ask a few people to clean up for Sister-in-law Sun, and go back to me for the salary." ”
Widow Sun hesitated for a moment, and said, "We are now staying at his cousin's house, not far from here, if the girl does not dislike it, you can go with me." 、”
Lizhi hurriedly greeted the coachman, followed Widow Sun, and after several twists and turns, she finally inquired about the situation and intentions of her family in detail, and solemnly instructed Widow Sun before leaving: "My second master understands that it is not easy for you to be orphaned and widowed, and I am afraid that a few turns in the middle will make you suffer. When other people come, like the old seven or something, you don't believe it, and you don't sign any documents. If you don't believe me, just ask someone to go to the Lu family's gatehouse to inquire, and you will know the truth. ”
