Chapter 144 Preparation

In the afternoon, the wind blew through the courtyard, and the old elm tree made a pleasant rustling sound, waking up Lin Jinrong, who was sitting under the window and meditating. Her eyes fell not far away, and there was a green gallbladder bottle on the pear wood shelf. What was kept in the gallbladder bottle was the thorny yellow wild huā brought back from the countryside.

It has been five days, and it is still gorgeously open in the fullest posture. The huāduo at the lower end was carefully trimmed by the lychee, and the huā bone at the top couldn't wait to bloom, and the green leaves became more and more shiny, setting off half of the room spring. Even if Lin Jinrong feels that it pricks his eyes, he has to admit that this huā is really beautiful, and it is more patient than those peach huā and Mei huā.

Litchi and Mother Gui sat quietly under the curtain doing Lin Jinrong's dowry, and looked up at her from time to time. Seeing that she looked at the branch and was stunned, the two of them tacitly exchanged glances and continued to work. Other girls embroidered dowry happily, that is, Lin Wu, now she is also in a bad manner, hiding in the room all day long to embroider the dowry. They are the only masters. What they like most is counting money and reading account books. No matter how bad it is, it is to read miscellaneous books, write, share tea and blow. Even if you suddenly want to do needlework, what you do is for Tao and Lin Shenzhi, Lin Jinyin,

Wu's shoes and socks.

What can they do if they don't do it? It's not just for her. After all, as soon as you enter the door, so many relatives, such as handkerchiefs and sachets, have to be sent to make it a point, and they have to embroider well, so as not to let others laugh at her girl. While doing it, Mother Gui suddenly remembered the trouble she had added recently. For a moment, she couldn't help biting her ear with lychee, "Have you noticed that the girl's feet seem to have grown up."

Litchi's heart suddenly jumped wildly, and then it was a little funny. After more than two years, she found that she didn't know whether she and the girl were covering up too well in daily life, or was Mother Gui now old, and her mind was on the longan, which was grasped by Gong's mother day by day? He muttered in his heart and pretended to be surprised: "What do you say?"

Mother Gui looked at the lychee suspiciously: "Don't you find it? I haven't collected the girl's shoes for a long time. When I went to collect them that day, I suddenly found that they were much more targeted than the shoes she used to wear. In the past few days, she has also secretly looked at Lin Jinrong's feet, which are really big.

Litchi gently pressed Mother Gui's gesture and whispered, "I'm serving the girl day and night." I really didn't find it. Mother, did you remember it wrong?"

Mother Gui's face stiffly said, "No, the girl was brought up by me. How can I forget it? It's because you and Cherry have been serving girls closely recently, that's why I asked you. I remember that the shoes the girl wore earlier were put in the ear room, waiting for me to turn over..."

Litchi said with a smile, "Then what?"

Ms. Gui didn't understand: "Ah?"

Litchi put down the embroidery in her hand and said solemnly, "Even if the girl's shoes are bigger than before, what can you do? Go and talk to your wife? Huh? Then what can my wife do? The girl is fifteen years old.

Mother Gui thought for a moment, lowered her head and continued to work, but embroidered one more tentacle of the butterfly. "Raise your head again" and your eyes will turn red: "The girl is big,

" After a moment of silence, he scolded Litchi: "You are confused, how can you fool the girl! This is a big deal. How can it be known in the future? No, I'm going to talk to my wife.

Litchi glanced at Lin Jinrong in the pawn, lowered his eyes and said indifferently, "If you want to say it, just say it. While it's still early, you can take it off.

I'm carrying it all on my back.

Mother Gui was embarrassed for a while and really shed tears: "Am I that kind of person? I did it for the sake of the girl. I entered the door of the Lu family in the future and was known. What should I do?

Litchi forced to ask, "I just asked Mamma, what can I do now to talk to my wife? Make a scene and stuff the girl's feet back?"

Mother Gui is not good at talking, and she is speechless again. But in her consciousness, this is wrong. It's deviant, but she can't find a reason to refute lychee. But she didn't dare to ask her to run to tell Dow about this.

Suddenly, when the curtain moved, Lin Jinrong wiped the two of them and walked out." He said lightly, "You don't have to worry about me in the future. Just do what I want. I'll take care of the rest. Now, Litchi packed up and went to his wife's room with me.

Litchi silently let go of the work in his hand and waited for Lin Jinrong to go out. Mother Gui looked outside and advised, "Girl, the sun is poisonous now. I'm afraid my wife is also taking a nap. Why don't you go there later?"

Lin Jinrong shook his head: "I suddenly remembered something, and I have to talk to my wife now." At this point today, the Tao family sent people to report the good news to the Lin family. A few days ago, she asked someone to bring a letter to Lin Shiquan and ask him to come back recently. If she didn't expect it, Lin Shiquan would come with the person who reported the good news. At this point, people are happy, and it is the most convenient time to talk to Lin Shiquan.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her, Mother Gui simply died and continued to sit back to do needlework.

Out of the yard, Litchi whispered, "Girl, Mother Gui knows.

Lin Jinrong said, "I heard it all. You did a good job, that's what you want. Practice the words well and learn to read the account books, so that I can rest assured to leave the matter to you in the future.

Her tone was very cautious, and Litchi also heard it. She couldn't help laughing and said, "Is it that the girl is going to let the maidservant be a female accountant in the future?"

Lin Jinrong glanced at her with a smile: "How about the female master? I will take care of the money for you, and I will take care of the people for you. With an order, even a big man will listen to you.

Litchi stammered, blushed and said, "The girl made fun of the maidservant again."

Lin Jinrong said, "Who is joking with you? Is it possible for you to read those letters, and you don't understand anything? That's not just to teach you how to read.

Litchi was stunned and suddenly understood. He couldn't help but be a little stunned and looked at Lin Jinrong inquiringly. Since Lin Shiquan went to Qingzhou and came back from that trip, he would write to Lin Jinrong from time to time. The letter usually describes a business in detail, who to do it with and how to do it, and sometimes he will write about his own feelings about interacting with people. Every time Lin Jinrong reads the letter, he will give it to her and let her read it again. Picking out some questions to ask her, she couldn't answer, and Lin Jinrong would not force her. She just took the letter and sat in front of the window and thought about it repeatedly. She often sat for a long time.

Lin Jinrong said in a low voice, "Lychee, maybe there will be more such letters in the future. I'm going to give the money in my hand to the third brother and let him learn to do some business by himself. He will often write letters, maybe he will discuss with me, or maybe he will ask for my opinion. You have to learn to read letters and deal with some things before you can help me.

Litchi's mouth opened a little more: "Girl, although I'm always in the inner courtyard, I also heard Gong's mother mention something about my uncle's family. Other people learn to do business from being an apprentice. They often have to do it for seven or eight years, and they dare to go out to do business alone for more than ten years. Now the young master has only been with his uncle for more than a year. Don't you rest assured? What if I lose it?"

Lin Jinrong frowned: "I won't do too much at the beginning, just let him practice." As long as Lin Shiquan is really consistent with his performance, he will not compensate. She still has this certainty. What's more, she really can't wait.

Although Litchi felt happy to be trusted and leaned on, he still had countless worries: "What should I do with my uncle?"

Lin Jinrong smiled and said, "This is what I want to discuss with my wife today. If we open our own store, we can't always take advantage of my uncle and young cousin, can we? No matter how good the relatives are, there are two surnames. The third girl also needs backbone bones in her mother-in-law's house, and the seventh young master is about to officially study as a teacher. Can't let people say that our family has always relied on her sister's mother-in-law's family, right?

Looking at her like this, q has planned it. Litchi has nothing to say. All she can do is try her best to do what she tells her to do.

Shaoqing, the two of them arrived outside the yard of the Tao family, and happened to bump into the woman who reported the good news from the second door: "The Tao family sent someone to report the news. The third girl's mother and son are safe!"

When Dow heard the sound, Chunya and Xia Ye hurriedly served and dressed, and the smile on his face couldn't stop: "Let the people in!" Go and report the good news to the old lady and the master. He ordered boldly, "Give down the reward money prepared earlier!" For a moment, there was a sound of congratulations and joy in the room. It was so lively.

Lin Jinrong looked at it with a smile and felt that it felt so good. That year, the good news came. Although Tao ordered people to reward money, it was far less generous than this.

It was Song's mother next to the Wu family, and Lin Jinyin's accompanying Yang's mother. The two smiled and told Tao about the situation at that time: "It's going well! The young master weighed six catties and eight taels, white and pure. He was so clever that his wife was so anxious that she couldn't drink the medicine. As soon as he heard that the mother and son were safe, he ate half a bowl of porridge! The spirit looks much better, and it is stable these days. The grandma's body was good. When she woke up, she drank two bowls of chicken soup, ate a chicken leg, and shouted hungry.

"As long as you can eat, as long as you can eat!" Tao smiled like a huā, "Telling her to be careful, don't eat like a big fat man, you can't take it back."

When Gong's mother led the two of them down to rest and eat, Yang's mother was a few steps behind and asked the Tao family, "Master Quan also followed this time. Now he is waiting outside the second door. Do you see your wife?"

Tao said, "I will definitely see you, but I'm going to report the good news in the old lady's room now. Let him go to see Liu'er first. If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later."

Lin Jinrong said, "Mom, let me greet the third brother." Tao didn't care: "Don't neglect it." After saying that, he hurried to the music hall,

All the way, the clothes are full of wind, full of smiles, and you will be rewarded as soon as you meet someone.

Lin Jinrong silently recalled what he was about to say to Lin Shiquan, confirmed that there were no loopholes, so he walked towards Liuer's small yard with his head held high.
