Chapter 197: Conspiracy

Shang Danju heard it the day after tomorrow, and couldn't help biting her lip and clenching her hands nervously.

Zhou Shuya smiled and opened the topic, "It's good that you have more sisters, and it will be your birthday for several months." ”

She turned her head and pulled Shang Danju and asked, "Shang Si, come and tell us, what birthday gift do you want?" ”

Shang Danju was stunned for a moment, and the smile on her face was a little unnatural.

Lin Yubin pulled her over with a smile, "The fourth sister wants the moon in the sky, will Sister Zhou give it?" ”

Zhou Shuya was stunned for a moment, and smiled: "I want to have that ability, let alone the moon, even the sun I picked for her." Such a lovely person, who would want to make her sad? ”

The youngest Lu Si looked at her and then at Lin Yubin, always feeling that they were playing a sharp game, and they were not very friendly, so she couldn't help but pout.

Lu Ling pinched her face and asked, "Are you hungry again?" Okay, I'll take you down to eat, but don't pout. ”

She's not hungry, she's just eaten a snack, and she's not a pig, how can she be hungry so fast?

However, her cousin didn't wait for her to answer, and pushed her to look for food.

The others also made their own excuses to leave, and they didn't react at first, but as soon as Zhou Shuya changed the topic, they thought of it.

Shang Danju is a concubine, I'm afraid that there will be no courtesy, and then they can't come to the door to congratulate her birthday, isn't that embarrassing Mrs. Shang's?

Shang Danzhu had just thought of it, and couldn't help biting his lip and looking at Lin Yubin, who was hugging Shang Danju.

Lin Yubin smiled at her, signaled her to rest assured, and pulled Shang Danju out.

When he arrived at the garden, the smile on Shang Danju's face couldn't be maintained, and he turned his back to cry.

She knew that this was not good, but she still couldn't help it, and couldn't help choking: "Sister, don't laugh at me." ”

"What am I laughing at you for?" Lin Yubin handed her the handkerchief and said softly: "It's just that you are carrying people on your back, don't let people see it, these subordinates of your family will make waves if they have nothing to do." ”

She has also lived in the Shang family for a few years, and she knows the Shang family best.

Shang Danju did not shy away from her because of this, she wiped her tears and said, "Don't let the third sister know, lest she think too much." ”

"Don't worry, she knows you."

Lin Yubin saw that she lowered her eyes and didn't speak, so she said softly: "The reason why I am happy on my birthday is because I can receive sincere congratulations from others, do you say yes or no?" ”

"Naturally, I am not a vain man."

"Those who love you will give you blessings, so why should you be sad?" Lin Yubin said in a low voice: "Even if the second aunt didn't give you a ceremony, wouldn't there still be us?" ”

Shang Danju looked up at Lin Yubin, and said with envy in her eyes: "My cousin is different from us. ”

Although she is the same age, she can already be half the head of the Lin family, unlike them, she still has to cling to the family.

But a few years ago, her situation was not much better than theirs, she was still living in the Shang family, sure enough, it was better to rely on no one than on herself, if only one day she could be like Cousin Lin.

Lin Yubin had already decided in his heart that if the second aunt didn't give Shang Danju a ceremony, then it would be good for them to do it.

She naturally couldn't do such a big thing alone, so she went to Shang Danlan to discuss.

Shang Danlan thought for a while and said: "It's not difficult, just go back and let the third sister ask the second aunt, if she doesn't have the intention, we can start preparing." ”

Of course, the second lady Shang had no intention, so she finished the ceremony for her daughter, she was very tired, and naturally she didn't have the heart to plan to do it again.

And the cost of a ceremony is very high, Shang Danju and Xuan, wouldn't it be good to make two more sets of clothes for her in the house at that time, wasn't it the same when Shang Danlan and Lu were like this?

Shang Danzhu got the exact news, and after going to the school, he deliberately avoided Shang Danju and discussed with Lin Yubin and the second sister.

Then Lin Yubin called Lu Ling and Cui Rong over, "We plan to hold a ceremony for the fourth cousin in private." ”

Lu Ling and Cui Rong glanced at each other and said, "Let's participate, but it's not good to do it in Shangfu if it's private, so we have to find a place." ”

Shang Danlan: "And that place can't be bad, otherwise it's better not to do it." ”

"It's in my family's Wenyuan," Lin Yubin said, "When the time comes, I'll ask my aunt to set aside a day in Wenyuan for us, and no one will receive it except us." ”

Lu Ling's eyes lit up, "I can be a division." ”

"Then I'll be a praiser," Shang Danlan smiled slightly, "I'm the only one to be a sister for." ”

"Then who is the guest?" Cui Rong said distressedly: "We can do the arrangement of the ceremony and the praiser, but who will do it?" ”

Zhengbin is an elder who must have both ability and political integrity to do it.

Shang Danzhu hesitated and said, "Please ask Aunt Lin for help?" ”

Several people looked at each other and shook their heads, Lin Qingwan is a widow, and these things are taboo.

Lin Yubin looked at Lu Ling and said softly, "Please sir." ”

Lu Ling glared, pointed at her and asked, "My mother?" ”

Lin Yubin nodded, "Mr. has both ability and political integrity, and she is our husband, do you think she is the most suitable?" ”

"But aren't we going to do this quietly, and told my mother ......?"

Shang Danlan smiled, "Mr. won't say anything outside." ”

"Yes, as long as Mr. agrees, she won't say anything outside," Lin Yubin patted her on the shoulder and said, "Sister Ling, this matter depends on you." ”

Lu Ling was dumbfounded, and only after half a sound did the strong man break his wrist and said, "Okay, I'll go!" ”

Shang Danzhu got up and said with a smile: "Then I'll contact other classmates, time is running out, we have to prepare a courtesy for her." ”

Everyone dispersed happily, and Lin Yubin went home at night and told Lin Qingwan about it, and asked her for the right to use the Wenyuan on the ninth day of the first month.

Lin Qingwan smiled: "It's not difficult, I'll let Lin An vacate the venue for you when she arrives, but you are all ready, what should you do with her dress, hairpipe?" ”

Lin Yubin was stunned, obviously not expecting this.

Lin Qingwan winked mischievously, "These things are really valuable, and they cost a lot of money, what are you going to do?" ”

Lin Yubin said with a bitter face: "Let everyone pool money to buy it?" It's just that everyone is not rich in their hands, and like Jin Shuang, their family background is a little poor, and they can't get it, so it's not good to make them sad for the birthday of the fourth cousin.

In that way, the classmates are afraid that they will complain, and the things that were originally happy will become bad. ”

Lin Qingwan bowed, "So what are you going to do?" ”

Lin Yubin thought bitterly for a long time, and finally looked at Lin Qingwan, "Auntie, the fourth cousin passed away, didn't you say it?" ”

Lin Qingwan laughed and said, "Yes, how about I give her a dress?" ”

Lin Yubin's eyes rolled, "Then, I'll prepare her hairpin." ”

Lin Qingwan looked at her but didn't smile.

Lin Yubin said boldly: "Auntie, didn't you say that I can use the things in the warehouse casually?" Shall I pick something out of it? ”

"That's your stuff, it's up to you."

Lin Yubin cheered, turned around and ran towards her yard, "Then I'll go and choose something for my fourth cousin." ”

In the Lin family, the most important thing Lin Yubin lacks is jewelry and all kinds of jewelry.

The accumulation of several generations of the Lin family was left to her and Lin Qingwan, and although Lin Qingwan liked to appreciate these things, she rarely wore them, so she gave them to her.

Not to mention the big warehouse in the house, there are a lot of good things in the small warehouse in her yard alone, and the boxes of jewelry sent by Zhong Ruying that she received when she was in the house have not had time to put them into the big warehouse.

Lin Yubin asked someone to find out a few large boxes, selected a lot of good things from them, and then began to open her money box to count.

Well, the money seems to be a bit small.

Lin Yubin asked distressedly, "Don't I have five taels of monthly silver every month, why is there only this money left?" ”

She has the materials, but there is also a manual fee for making jewelry, and the exquisite craftsmanship is generally not cheap.

Ying Yan said with a smile: "Miss, why did you forget, most of the monthly money you saved before was donated to the victims last year, and when you were out of filial piety, you paid for the ever-bright lantern in the temple at your own expense, and at the time of the New Year, in order to pray for the lord, you also gave all the New Year's money to Yushantang, and now these are what you have saved in these three months." ”

Ying Yan counted and said: "Yes, excluding your daily expenses and gifts to Miss Sanbiao, this is all your savings." ”

Lin Yubin pinched up the broken silver and asked blankly, "Then do you think this money can invite a silversmith to make jewelry?" ”

Ying Yan glanced at the materials she selected, shook her head and said, "If you want to make such valuable jewelry, you are still in a hurry, this amount of money is impossible." ”

Bi Rong smiled, "Eldest Lady might as well go to your aunt and grandmother to help." ”

Lin Yubin frowned, shook his head and didn't speak.

The next day, she went to Shang Danzhu and Shang Danlan with the materials in the box, and the three of them chatted together.

Shang Danlan picked out a few of them and pushed them aside, and said softly: "It's better to use jade for the hairpipe, I have one there that I haven't worn, it's my father's previous collection, and my brother gave it to me a few years ago, so I can give it to my fourth sister." ”

Shang Danzhu said: "If you want to hire a good silversmith, you will get at least twenty taels of silver, I have New Year's money there, and the monthly money saved in the past few months is enough." ”

Lin Yubin breathed a sigh of relief, "Then let's go into the city together after school, time is running out, we have to order it as soon as possible." ”

"But after school, the three of us sisters are going to go together, won't she know about it then?"

Lin Yubin turned the beads and said, "Then pull her up, just say that she is giving me jewelry, just ask her about the style of jewelry." ”

"Good idea, by the way," Shang Danlan asked softly, "what about the dress?" ”

"My aunt said that she would deliver the dress, and our family has the data she left when she made the clothes last time, so we don't need to measure it again."

"But in addition to the last dress, there are also Confucian shirts and skirts and curved deep clothes."

"Every year when we are born, the family will make a set of clothes, and when the time comes, I will pick her up to make a deep coat," Shang Danzhu said: "As for the Confucian shirt and skirt, why don't we do it ourselves?" ”

Shang Danzhu is not very confident, but although they have learned embroidery and tailoring, their skills are a little difficult to speak to.

Shang Danlan and Lin Yubin also didn't speak.

The two looked at each other silently for a long time, and finally Lin Yubin's heart moved, and he said softly: "Maybe you can ask Aunt Wu." ”

Aunt Wu is Shang Danju's biological mother, her skills in making clothes are still very good, and many of Shang Danju's clothes are made by her.

Shang Danlan and Shang Danzhu glanced at each other, and their eyes were bright.

As for the fabric, there is no need to worry at all, they can scrape together the money to buy it, and the money for the fabric can still be afforded.
