014 Poppy
When Xue Baobao saw Lin Ruhai, he only said that Xue Pan was sick and couldn't get out of bed, and asked Lin Ruhai what to do.
Lin Ruhai knew that the inside story must not be as simple as Xue Pan's illness, but it was inconvenient for him to listen to other people's privacy, so he thought about it and said, "Even if you are sick, there is no way." Later, I will explain to the two Chincha-sama that I don't think the Chincha-sama will blame him."
Xue Pan can't come anymore, blame, there's no way to do it, right?
Xue Baobao nodded, and after eating, Lin Ruhai ordered the two messengers to be invited to the main hall of the outer courtyard and took Xue Shen away.
Xue Baobao was so curious that she wanted to meet that poppy very much, but she was not familiar with the ancient etiquette system, and Lin Ruhai didn't say a word to take her, so she had to wait obediently in the backyard.
Over there, Xue Shen followed Lin Ruhai to the main hall to meet He Yan and Yu Xin, and ordered the little servant to take out two boxes, and said apologetically, "The head of the family is unlucky, and I am afraid that it will be a sin to give it to the two adults, so I sent the villain to hand over to the two adults, and asked the two adults to forgive their sins."
Yu Xin was as rumored, his complexion was as bright as rumored, his temperament was lonely and cold, and he was like a sharp sword out of the sheath, and he had no intention of greeting Xue Shen at all.
He Yan is a shrewd and talkative person, and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay, let the head of the Ling family break the bank, please tell the head of the Ling family, don't take care of your body."
After the greetings, Xue Shen ordered the silver ticket and account book to be presented.
He Yan has been working in the household department for several years, and this is the first time he has seen so many silver tickets at one time, and he is so excited that the silver tickets are all out of the afterimage.
I clicked it three times in a row, and after confirming that it was correct, Fang wrote the receipt and printed it.
The account book records the accounts of all the granges, cloth villages, medicinal herb shops and other materials that can be used for disaster relief this year, but this point is a lot of trouble.
It wasn't until noon that the inventory was finally over, He Yan carefully packed up all the silver bills, account books, bills and other things, and said with a smile, "Such a large amount of property is said to be given away, which makes the head of the family so angry!" ”
Xue Shen didn't dare to say anything, but secretly said in his heart, where is the uncle's good spirit, obviously it is the eldest girl, but it is a pity that the daughter of the boudoir has a golden reputation, but such words are never dared to be known to outsiders.
Lin Ruhai saw that the handover was completed, and ordered to set up a table.
Xue Shentui said that he would go back to pay an account to the head of the family, and he would not be resigned.
Lin Ruhai was not reluctant, and accompanied He Yan and Yu Xin to the table.
Although Yu Xin didn't open his mouth during the banquet, He Yan was a well-spoken person, and he was in harmony with Lin Ruhai.
Yu Xin, who had been drinking until he was half-drunk, suddenly spoke, "Xue Shen said that he wanted to go back and pay an account to the head of the family, but he took a detour to the backyard of your mansion, and he hasn't come out yet."
Lin Ruhai was taken aback, he had discussed with Xue Baobao before he came, Xue Shen couldn't eat at the same table with Yu Xin and the others, so after handing over the account, he pretended to go back to the house, took a detour back to the backyard, and gave an account to Xue Baobao, and had lunch by the way.
After he entertained Yu Xin and the others, he came to the backyard to talk to Xue Baobao in detail.
Xue Shen has always been safe, this is in his mansion again, Yu Xin has never left with him from beginning to end, how did he know that Xue Shen went to the backyard and didn't leave until now?
He Yan was also stunned, and then smiled, "Yu Qianhu suspects that the head of the Xue family is actually hiding in the backyard of the Lin Mansion, but he doesn't bother to see you and me, so he used a steward to send us away, but he hid behind and escaped?" ”
Lin Ruhai is an old minister of the Emperor Taishang, and he is thinking about asking the new emperor to open up and let him return to Beijing to fill the vacancy, where can he dare to offend these new emperor's henchmen, and when he heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly left his seat to accuse.
"The two ministers of the Qin Mission, Lin and Xue Fu never dared to snub the two adults, only the head of the Xue family was sick-"
He Yan interrupted him, "Lord Lin, you don't always have to say any sick lies, even if the head of the Xue family is sick, can you still go to your Lin Mansion to recuperate?" ”
Lin Ruhai's mind changed rapidly, not to mention that he didn't want to offend the new emperor's henchmen, it was the Xue family, who spilled such a large amount of money, obviously to ask the new emperor for grace, and he couldn't offend the two of them because of a trivial matter.
It's a good thing, but if there are twists and turns because of a little thing, it's not beautiful.
Lin Ruhai's plan had been decided, so he said half-truthfully, "It is true that Uncle Xue is sick and can't come, because Uncle Xue can't come, I'm afraid it will be disrespectful, so I sent my sister to the mansion."
Because of the inconvenience of the daughter of the boudoir, he said goodbye to the two adults in the future and waited in the backyard.
After Steward Xue finished his errand, he had to go to the backyard to pick up his master.
I think it was close to noon, and the family members of the Hidden Mansion left Miss Xue to eat, and Miss Xue was a polite person, and wanted to wait for Lin to resign in person after the meal, so it was delayed."
He Yan sneered, "According to what Lord Lin said, this Xue girl can actually take charge of things when her brother is away, so he wants to meet him."
Lin Ruhai saw that his words were frivolous, and he changed color, "Please also ask Lord He to be cautious, the daughter of the boudoir, the body of a daughter, how can it be an adult who comments indiscriminately, and you still want to see it?" ”
He Yan didn't pay attention to his words, he grabbed the handle, got up stupidly to make amends, and made a toast again, Yu Xin didn't speak again, and the topic was revealed.
After they were full of wine and food, He Yan and the others said that they were free to go around and invite Lin Ruhai to do their own thing.
Lin Ruhai saw that they really didn't want to accompany him, so he found a servant to guide them, and went to see Xue Baobao without mentioning it.
……
……
Here, He Yan and Yu Xin walked out of the Lin Mansion and walked around the streets of Yangzhou at will, but the more they thought about it, the more tasteless they became, and said to Yu Xin, "Then Lin Ruhai is obviously playing ghosts, why don't we find a place to block it, that Xue girl has entered the Lin Mansion, she will come out sooner or later, we will meet her for a while, a little girl is always easier to deal with than Lin Ruhai, see if you can cheat something."
Yu Xin ignored it, but He Yan was unwilling, "Hey, before the emperor came up, he ordered that, in addition to getting the money, he also had to check Lin Ruhai by the way."
This is your Jinyiwei's business, and now there is obviously a gap, you don't care about it, do you want to derelict your duties? ”
Yu Xin stared at him and said coldly, "I have already found out, the uncle of the Xue family did have a high fever last night, and the people from the Xue Mansion went to call the doctor in the middle of the night and grabbed the medicine, and the prescription is indeed a prescription for high fever."
It was indeed the daughter of the Xue family who entered the Lin Mansion this morning, and when the Xue girl came in, she also brought a lotus lantern and gave it to Lord Lin."
He Yan, "...... Wait, when did you check it? You've been with me all the time, but I haven't seen you send someone out? ”
Yu Xin sneered, "I also know that Miss Xue also came to the Lin Mansion early yesterday morning and also brought a lotus lantern."
He Yan, "......"
Early yesterday morning?
They haven't arrived in Yangzhou yet!
He Yan finally reacted, "You have already sent people to Yangzhou to keep an eye on the Lin Mansion and the Xue family?" ”
Yu Xin snorted and continued walking.
He Yan hurriedly chased after him, "Hey, sure enough, you Jinyiwei have two brushes!" Hey, now that you know, why don't you tell me what kind of moth that Lin Ruhai is doing? ”
Yu Xin ignored him, but He Yan was a kraft candy character, he kept chattering in his ear, and even wanted to pick his shoulder, he was annoyed, and he didn't have a good breath, "It's nothing, it's what Lord Lin said."
He Yanwu refused to believe it, "But this matter, he can't make sense!" You said that Uncle Xue came to Yangzhou to do business, why did he bring his sister?
That Uncle Xue is said to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, and her sister is at most in her teens.
Even if he brought his sister to Yangzhou to play, Yangzhou is close to Jinling, why didn't he pick a warm spring day to bring his sister to play, and he had to pick this winter to take his young sister back and forth?
Even if he had to take his sister to Yangzhou to play in the winter, then why did he bring his sister to Lin Mansion yesterday to do business?
Lin Mansion doesn't talk about girls who are close to her, even if there is no serious female dependent, only a few concubines, is she coming here to play with Lin Ruhai's old concubines? ”
Yu Xin paused suddenly, turned his head and stared at him coldly, "How do you know that it was Uncle Xue who brought Miss Xue to do things, and it wasn't Miss Xue who brought Uncle Xue to do things?" ”
He Yan was stunned, and then slammed his fist like chicken blood, "So I talked nonsense, right?" Then Miss Xue can be in charge of her brother's absence?
Tsk, she is worthy of being the daughter of a merchant, and I am afraid that she is also extremely accountable."
Yu Xin frowned, "The daughter of the boudoir has a lot of shackles because of all kinds of rules, even if the merchant's daughter is in charge of the house, what does it have to do with two million silver, what does it have to do with you and me?" You don't have to stare at it anymore."
He Yan glanced at him in surprise, "You are a cold-faced Yama, I didn't expect that you would have such a heart of pity and cherishing jade, it is really a rare thing."
Yu Xin didn't bother to pay attention to him, and continued to walk forward.
He Yan stuck to it again, everyone in the capital was afraid of this person's beautiful and poisonous beauty snake, and he was originally disgusted and disliked.
This time I took such an errand, and I was even more depressed that I couldn't eat well for several days.
Unexpectedly, along the way, this beautiful snake that everyone in the capital feared, but everyone wanted to stutter, unexpectedly hit his appetite.
The journey is boring, and he likes to tease this cold-faced and cold-hearted beauty snake.
Even if Yu Xin didn't speak all the time, he could say very happily just by looking at his peerless face.
"It's okay not to talk about that Miss Xue, you tell me about that Uncle Xue, according to what you said, he came to the Lin Mansion yesterday morning as a guest, why is he so sick that he can't get out of bed today? Could it be that you are intimidated by your notoriety as a cold-faced Yama......"
