Chapter 45: Girlfriends
In the vast snowfall, a convoy of more than a dozen people traveled from a corner of the county seat to the street where Lin Fu was located.
Four horses, sixteen large chests.
The horses dragged the cart with difficulty, and the people who followed them pushed together.
Even though the air was covered with a thick layer of snow mist, the family members who were huddled in front of the Lin Mansion also saw the scene in the distance from afar.
"Call someone to help!"
Bai Song rubbed his hands and jumped at the door and didn't dare to stop, but he was not noticed by the family.
"Hey! Call people! ”
Bai Song shouted again, and Jia Ding noticed.
"Huh?"
"I have already brought back the money that the Lin family wanted, and I asked someone to help."
"Oh."
Jiading looked confused, he didn't know what was going on, he only subconsciously responded, and after a while, he called more than a dozen helpers.
The Lin Mansion, which had just calmed down, became lively again because of more than a dozen boxes of money.
From the unknown that just entered the door, it quickly turned into disbelief.
It was really sixteen boxes full of copper coins, and it was impossible to count.
In the Lin family, the family members also saw so much cash at one time, and the entire Lin Mansion was boiling because of this.
……
"Miss! Miss...... My uncle is back with the money! ”
In the small courtyard where no one was around, Xiao Cui jumped in the snow like a happy rabbit, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and slammed open the door of the young lady's room in a panic.
But I found that I didn't see Miss in the room at all, and when I turned around, it turned out that Miss had already gotten the news and ran out of the yard by myself.
The news reached the lord's room, which shocked the lord and the lady.
The couple didn't even have time to put on their belts, so they hurried to the front hall to see what was going on.
At the east end of the same house, Lin Xun's house couldn't sit still.
The woman, who had hid in the house and was giving advice to her little man, was halfway done, and when she came to the brakes, she got up and dressed, and came to see.
"Madam, why is it so when you go to the crucial place? I don't follow, I don't follow......"
Lin Xun tore the bed curtain, pouted like a little daughter-in-law, and sprinkled jokes on the bed, complaining.
The woman scolded back: "The fire is burning to your eyebrows, and you still have the leisure to play?" What a useless ......."
"Madame...... Madam, I'm not right, come back quickly, it's so cold outside......"
The woman ignored her, and before she could put on her clothes, she had already rushed out of the room.
Lin Xun chased after him angrily, but he didn't realize that he was naked, and he was startled by the cold wind at the door, and his whole body trembled, and he lost his feeling in an instant.
……
Ooh!
That's big news.
His own waste son-in-law had only been out for two hours, and he had brought back sixteen boxes of money.
This is even more outrageous than listening to the legends of gods and monsters.
But the facts are in front of us, and no one can not believe them.
Up and down the Lin Mansion, even the dogs that watched the house came, and they all gathered in the main courtyard to look at Bai Song standing in the center.
"Mom, am I dreaming? So much money? ”
"This guy can't be the guy who grabbed the money, right? How could it be ...... in such a short period of time"
The family members were dumbfounded when they looked at the money, and they couldn't believe it.
A few little maids looked at the uncle in the courtyard with longing: "That little aunt is a capable person at first glance, not to mention curing the young lady, and bringing back so much money to the house in a moment, what are you subordinates qualified to say?" ”
"That's it! From the first moment my aunt entered the house, I knew that this little aunt was not an ordinary person. ”
"Hey, where did Xiaolian go?"
The maid named Xiaolian had already trotted into the snow, and when she came to Bai Song, she handed over an umbrella shamefully: "Uncle, such a big snow, don't catch a cold." Everyone else used to look down on her uncle, but Xiaolian knew that her uncle was the most capable person in the Lin Mansion. ”
After finishing her words, she didn't forget to rub the pair of mountains in front of her on her uncle's arm, and then returned to the corner of the yard with her charming eyes.
Unfortunately, this scene was seen by Lin Xiang'er, who was in a hurry, holding an umbrella in her arms, her delicate body wrapped under a heavy cloak, wearing a velvet hat, covered with a layer of snow, but the umbrella in her arms did not withstand the slightest wind and snow.
Lin Xiang'er's eyes flickered, and she saw that Bai Song was standing in the courtyard with an umbrella at the moment, her hurried steps slowed down, and then she stood quietly in the corner, looking at the man in the center of the world with longing.
Lin Tingzheng finally came, looking at everything in front of him with a look of astonishment.
Bai Song put away the umbrella, strode up to greet him, and said loudly: "Master Lin, the 1,500 yuan you wanted, the son-in-law has already prepared it for you, please take a look." ”
Lin Tingzheng withdrew his gaze from the box behind him, looked at Bai Song, and did not speak.
Lin Tingzheng frowned, he knew that the Lin family was in dire need of money, but someone really sent the money to him, but for some reason, he couldn't be happy in his heart.
"Impossible...... Could it be that my Lin family has fallen so far that they need to rely on the help of the poor? ”
"Master, there are sixteen boxes in total, each box is a hundred yuan, and the remaining box is wine, fifteen hundred, only a little more."
A family member shouted loudly, his face full of excitement, but he didn't notice that his old man's expression was not good.
Steward Liu stepped forward and asked, "Master, is this money transferred to the treasury first?" It just so happened that a Boss Jia came to the door to ask for money......"
Lin Tingzheng took a deep breath and closed his eyes heavily, a little unwilling, but still nodded.
Steward Liu glanced at Bai Song, turned around and shook his hand: "Go to the warehouse!" ”
After speaking, the family members acted here, and the Lin Mansion was a lively scene.
"Where did the money come from?"
"It was given by the Xia family, a wine merchant in Pixian County."
"What benefits did you promise?"
"Naming rights for the little year review."
"Naming rights?"
Bai Song was patient and explained the "naming right" again.
After Lin Tingzheng understood, his face changed: "How can this be true!" 'Little Years Review' is a gathering place for literati in Youzhou, how can I be contaminated with these copper smells? ”
Bai Song was very calm, and said lightly: "Master Lin, this is the solution I gave, if Master Lin is not satisfied, you can return the money to the Xia family, as if nothing happened, of course, you can also drive me away from the Lin family according to the gambling contract." But after that, Master Lin can only rely on selling his property to fill the vacancy. ”
"You dare to threaten me?"
"With me without me, the Lin family's predicament is all there, why am I threatening?"
"Sir!" Mother Lin suddenly interrupted, "It's going to be sold for property, what else do you want to do with dignity?" If the Lin family sells their family property because of the master, how can they be worthy of their ancestors? Although Bai Song's method was cloudy and foggy, and he didn't know why, he finally found money and plugged the gap. It's just to add a few slogans of the Xia Family Winery to the Xiaosui review, such a good deal, how can there be any reason not to do it? ”
Bai Song disdained Lin Tingzheng's personality and posture, but he thought that he was Xiang'er's father, and Bai Song was unwilling to have a stiff relationship with him.
Bai Song knew very well that what this Master Lin wanted was a step.
After a little hesitation, he said: "The fact that Xiao Sui Ping can have a merchant title is a recognition of Xiao Sui Ping and the recognition of the Lin family. If it is held in another place, there will never be a merchant willing to name it at a sky-high price of 1,500 yuan. It shows that the Lin family has a deep influence under the leadership of Master Lin. I just borrowed the reputation of the Lin family and did a thing that pushed the boat down the river, if it was another family, the Xia family winery would not have paid so much money. This time of cooperation, both sides win-win, each making money, each with dignity. ”
"Yes, master, Bai Song said a lot, don't get into the horns."
"Hey! That's it......" Lin Tingzheng waved his hand, "That's it." ”
"Then my bet with Master Lin ......"
Lin Tingzheng frowned: "From now on, you can come and go in and out of the Lin Mansion at will." But...... Xiang'er's things don't count. ”
"Why?!"
This is a lifelong concern for Xiang'er, and it is up to her to decide. She also said that she didn't agree with the bet at all. ”
"What?" Bai Song was shocked, "Master Lin, how can you go back on your word?" Obviously I have already promised ......"
"This is what Xiang'er said herself, and it has nothing to do with the old man!"
"Daddy!" A crisp voice came from the other side.
Lin Xiang'er trotted out, looking anxious: "Daughter...... Daughter He once said that he would not agree......"
Bai Song stopped doing it when he heard it, looked at Lin Tingzheng, and said in his heart Let's see how you explain.
Lin Tingzheng was also stunned, he didn't lie this time, it was indeed his daughter who cried and told him that he didn't agree, why did his daughter change her words now.
"Daughter, you came in the snow, and you don't ...... what you say"
Lin Xiang'er lowered her head and blushed, but she didn't admit it: "Dad, my daughter has been staying in the room all the time, how can she ever leave ......"
"Daughter, you...... You ......"
"Dad, Bai Song has found so much money for the Lin family, and he is willing to gamble and lose, should he ...... What should I do, just do it, it's okay for my daughter to be wronged......"
"Hey!" Lin Tingzheng stomped his feet, and his old face was embarrassed.
The heart said how the daughter she taught could say such shameless words!
But at this point, how can he not know where his daughter's heart is?
Immediately he didn't say anything more, flicked his sleeves, left his wife and walked quickly.
Mother Lin looked inexplicable on the side and asked her daughter: "Are you willing to gamble and lose?" What exactly are you betting on? ”
Lin Xiang'er was so ashamed that she lowered her head and twisted: "It's nothing, mother, don't ask." ”
Mother Lin looked at the young couple, and her doubts were undiminished, and she caught up with her husband's footsteps and wanted to ask clearly.
When Mother Lin chased back to her house, saw her husband, and asked the reason for the matter, her face immediately changed.
"Master, why are you so confused? How does this work? ”
Lin Ting was drinking in the room and spread his hands: "Who would have thought that kid could really raise 1,500 yuan in one day!" ”
"I took this opportunity to kick him out of the Lin family, I didn't want to be self-defeating!"
"No! You can't let that guy do whatever he wants, how noble is Xiang'er, how can she live with that poor untouchable? ”
With that, Mother Lin was going out.
Lin Tingzheng shouted, "Where are you going?" ”
"I'm going to tell that kid that if he dares to think anything wrong, I'll beat that guy to death!"
"Are you crazy? Do we Lin family still want to be embarrassed? The bet was made in the middle of the main hall, and many people outside could hear it clearly. Can you still regret it? ”
"But...... But what about my Xiang'er? Wasn't he ruined by that kid? ”
"Now that the matter has come to this, let them live together! You hurry up and find an opportunity to inform your daughter, let her know how powerful, and keep your innocence. When I find an opportunity, I'll get rid of that guy again. ”
……
On the other side, the families of the Lin Mansion saw a strange scene.
In the midst of the blizzard, the little-known uncle picked up the young lady by the waist and ran from the front yard to the back yard, like a mad dog in the snow, shouting the young lady's name frantically.
"Someone! Move all of your uncle's things to Miss's boudoir, and from now on, Miss's boudoir will also be Uncle's boudoir! Xiang'er, we will be best friends in the future! Hahaha......"
