Chapter 502: Mei Niang
was shocked and quickly dealt with Ahu's school status, and Lin Qingwan knew that the sister and brother's surname was Su.
Lin Yubin said: "This is the surname that Miss Mei took after she arrived in Suzhou, and said that if she wants to start over in Suzhou, she will simply follow the surname Su." ”
It is also because of this that Lin Yubin pitied the other party very much, and helped her not only explain it to her aunt, but also admired the other party herself.
She felt that she and her aunt were difficult enough, but she didn't expect that there were people in the world who were even more difficult than them.
If she was in the position of Mei Niang, she was afraid that she would die early.
Therefore, even if she knew that Mei Niang was being troubled in Wenyuan at that time, she deliberately designed her to bump into her, Lin Yubin never alienated her.
Her momentary joy and anger are just emotions, but in the eyes of others, Meiniang's life may be very different.
And my aunt wouldn't have noticed that Miss Mei had deliberately appeared in front of her that day, but she not only personally sent Miss Mei out of the garden, but also invited her to ride with her, obviously not caring about this.
She may not be as broad-minded as her aunt, but she is willing to learn.
My aunt said that no matter whether the other party is scheming or not, just see if he is worth helping, and if he is worth it, he will stretch out his hand, and those scheming will be used on them, which will not harm them, but will benefit the other party, since it is beneficial to others and not to harm themselves, why bother?
Lin Yubin could think about it, but Mei Niang didn't know, she knew that her careful tricks could hide from those men who were stunned by beauty, but she must not be able to hide from keen women.
So she was only eight points true that day, and two points of falsehood said those words, although there were only two points of falsehood, but she still felt apprehensive in her heart, because Lin Qingwan was not one of those men who would be infatuated with her, and the only women she had come into contact with who were in the upper position were the eldest princess and Ji Nian.
Neither of them was the one who allowed her to play tricks.
Ji Nian used to be an opponent, she was not afraid of her, but she was afraid of the eldest princess.
Similarly, she didn't want to be Lin Qingwan's opponent, so she was naturally afraid of her. So goodbye Lin Qingwan, when she took over the complete school registration from her, she sighed faintly: "The concubine was sold by her parents when she was four years old, and at that time, His Royal Highness bought my younger brother who was only one year old in order to have some restraints on me. ”
Seeing Lin Qingwan's eyes showing pity, she smiled lightly: "Later, the county lord sent someone to ask me where I wanted to go, and I thought that Suzhou had a talented person like the county lord, and this must also be a beautiful place, so I chose Suzhou." ”
"Coming here, it is equivalent to a new life, I have become a good citizen from a lowly slave, and Ahu can also be an upright person, so I thought that Suzhou was really a blessed land, so I decided on the surname Su."
Lin Qingwan nodded and said, "This surname is very good, and it is very suitable for Mei Girl and Brother Ling." ”
Mei Niang breathed a sigh of relief, got up and saluted her: "Thank you to the county lord for taking care of her, the concubine knows that Ah Hu and I have been able to rely on the county lord and the Lin family for the past six months, otherwise the concubine would not know where it is now." ”
Lin Qingwan hurriedly stretched out her hand to support her, pursed her lips, and said with a slight solemnity: "It's good that Miss Mei doesn't complain about the court." ”
Mei Niang was surprised: "Why did the county lord say this, the court has the grace of reinvention to me, how can the concubine be resentful?" ”
Lin Qingwan didn't speak.
is the same is meritorious, and even Mei Niang's merit is not lower than any of them, if she didn't have her to control Prince Chu, where would this battle be so easy?
But because she is humble, a woman, and a beauty, she was forgotten.
The imperial court was afraid of being attacked and annihilated, and it also left a bad mark in the history books, so it did not dare to mention this plan, and the courtiers disdained to mention it, so this hero hid in Suzhou.
If there is no guarantee that she will live and work in peace and contentment, then she will be an official of the court in vain.
But Mei Niang didn't think so, in her opinion, it was too unexpected to be able to get out safely after completing the task of Prince Chu.
She is not stupid, she has long thought that if Chu dies, she will most likely be recalled to the capital, and then sent out again, and she may not be able to avoid such a fate in this life.
So she was already very happy to be able to get out of slavery and leave the eldest princess's sphere of influence, and now all she wants is her brother's studies.
She was still apprehensive in her heart, but Lin Qingwan had already put up a protective umbrella for her, and went to the door for two days in a row, and then took her to visit jewelry stores, fabric stores and restaurants, and every time she could meet one or two ladies she was familiar with, and then introduce her to them.
In less than two days, all the people in Suzhou knew that her Meiniang was the guest of the Lord of Lin, and she had a very good personal relationship.
Ah Hu was very worried in his heart, and said with fear: "Sister, Lord Lin is too good to us, could it be that he has a plan?" ”
Mei Niang was also a little apprehensive, but after thinking about it, she still shook her head and said: "No, it seems that you really support me, now the ladies feel much better for me, and they are no longer as hostile to me as before." ”
"But why?"
The sisters and brothers were raised in a deep house since they were children, just like caged birds, and all they learned was how to please and serve nobles, so these superiors were not good people in their eyes.
Mei Niang lowered her eyes and said, "Do you remember what my sister said, this Lord Lin is only afraid that he is a good person." ”
"Capable and good man?" Ah Hu frowned and said, "But didn't you also say that she is very smart, but I am afraid that you are approaching her with a purpose in front of you, so that she is still willing to help us like this?" Unless ......"
Ah Hu's mouth opened wide.
Mei Niang couldn't help but beat him and said: "What are you thinking nonsense, Lord Lin has a deep affection for his deceased husband, and he can't tolerate other people in his heart." ”
Ah Hu muttered, "But there is another situation. ”
Mei Niang glanced at him, "You don't read some messy books, what's the situation?" ”
After a pause, she said, "Lord Lin seems to appreciate me with some guilt, and I think she seems to be a little concerned that I can't be rewarded. ”
"But aren't we already good friends?"
In Ah Hu's view, being able to be good and leaving the capital is already the biggest reward.
Mei Niang smiled, "Yes, we have won the biggest reward." ”
In addition to resolving the conflict between Mei Niang and the ladies, Lin Qingwan also cared about her livelihood, "Mei Niang's two shops are rented out? ”
Mei Niang smiled and said: "The concubine doesn't know how to take care of the accounts, but fortunately, the land in Suzhou is expensive, and the annual rent is enough for our sisters and brothers." ”
Lin Qingwan smiled, "Can't you learn, if you're afraid of failure, the girl can rent a room, take the smaller one to practice, maybe she can succeed in the future?" ”
"This ......"
"If Miss Mei is worried about manpower, I can transfer two people to help you," Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "I don't know what Miss Mei is good at, this business should be based on what I am good at." ”
What is Mei Niang good at?
Poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she has learned everything that can please a man, and in the eldest princess, she naturally did not learn to manage the accounts as a housekeeper, but in the prince of Chu, she passed through the hands.
Although she was just a decoration, most of them were handled by Prince Chu's grandmother, but after listening to it for two years, of course she also learned something.
But in the end, the roots are shallow, and I don't dare to toss indiscriminately.
She thought about it for a long time, and finally found that she was most familiar with some of the things that please men and women.
It is impossible for her to do such a thing as pleasing men again, and even avoid it from a distance, so there is only something left to mess with women.
For example, make some ready-to-wear, or make some perfume......
Mei Niang nervously went to Lin Qingwan for advice, and Lin Qingwan laughed and said: "Your idea coincides with my niece, I won't know this, why don't you go and ask her." ”
Opening a ready-to-wear shop and making beautiful dresses, or opening an incense shop and making perfume and rouge were the ideas that Lin Yubin had when he first came into contact with the business in Fuzhong when he was 14 years old.
However, at that time, the Lin family didn't have a shop to toss her, so she mentioned one or two sentences whimsically when she whispered to her aunt in the dead of night.
Lin Yubin didn't expect her aunt to remember, she smiled a little embarrassed, but she also knew that Lin Qingwan was asking her to support Meiniang, and when her aunt went to the capital in the future, no one would dare to bully Meiniang.
After thinking about it, Lin Yubin pulled Meiniang to the study, she really had a lot of ideas, anyway, Meiniang had no experience, so she chose the tallest one among the short, and she came up with an idea to let her choose.
"Since it's a woman's business, it's best not to let those stinky men in the shop," Lin Yubin said, "Then we're more comfortable." ”
Knowing that Mei Niang didn't want to deal with men, and was afraid that she would be too popular with men and provoke the eyes of female guests, Lin Yubin said: "When the time comes, we will put up a sign in front of the shop, and no men are allowed to enter the store, only female guests will be entertained." ”
"Good!" Mei Niang said happily: "This is a good idea, and there is more." ”
"In this case, when the time comes, the store will have to recruit all female workers," Lin Yubin rolled his eyes, "If you are short of people, you can go to my school to try to recruit people, in addition to the female workers who entertain guests, I also have several students there who have specialized in accounting room." That way, you won't have to transfer people from my aunt. ”
Mei Niang: "...... Good. ”
Lin Yubin didn't expect to be able to find a job for the students in her school, and she was immediately happy, she only had eight points of enthusiasm, but now she has twelve points, and she helped her plan in every detail.
Of course, Mei Niang is also willing to have a good relationship with Lin Yubin, she knows that Lin Qingwan is now in a high position, and most of them will stay in the capital in the future, and Suzhou will have to rely on the county lord Lin.
So I can use a girl to learn to have a relationship with her, and Meiniang can't ask for it.
If something happens to her shop in the future, for the sake of her students, Lin Yubin should also help.
Lin Qingwan originally wanted to make them closer, but she didn't expect them to cooperate, so she couldn't help but shake her head and smile when she heard about it, "But it's fate." ”
"Fate!" Lin Wenze, who was at his feet, raised his head to learn his tongue, and then lowered his head to tinker with his toys, busy and happy.
Ever since Lin Qingwan took him back to the courtyard, he had fallen in love with the mud and wood toys.
Lin Qingwan simply asked the carpenter to make a lot of educational toys for him, and asked him to disassemble and put them on, so now even if he doesn't see his parents at night, he doesn't cry or make trouble.
