Chapter 63 Changes

After all, my uncle didn't see the general ledger book and stayed in Jiangdong Mansion for three days. My uncle returned to Jinfeng Mansion with a gloomy face. However, there are many problems left behind.

The stewards of some peripheral industries seem to have made an appointment in advance. In less than ten days, more than ten people have left. Although on the surface, there is no substantial impact on the Chen family's industry, Lin Huazhi knows that these damages are invisible and may cause a huge impact one day.

Yan Shaobai also found this and sent someone to take over. Soon after, he came back and said that these stews did not take anything away, and the relationship was very clear. However, how to hand over the relationships accumulated over so many years?

Cui Ting came to the house twice during this period. Lin Huazhi did not want to see her and knew that she was coming, so she avoided early. Yan Shaobai may understand that Lin Huazhi really didn't like Cui Ting. Every few days after Cui Ting went back, he did not come to provoke Lin Huazhi.

As the wedding period approaches, Du Yinglian becomes more and more silent. She stays in Huafeng Garden all day and doesn't like to see people very much. Lin Huazhi went to see her several times, but Du Yinglian smiled forcefully, and Lin Huazhi didn't know how to persuade her.

In fact, this is a very strange mentality, and Lin Huazhi sometimes wonders whether she is also pitiful in the eyes of others? Many times, she thought that she was indeed an indifferent person in her bones, so after losing all her enthusiasm for Yan Shaobai and looking at him and Cui Ting, she gradually had a bystander mentality.

The wet nurse looked very worried when she looked at her recently, as if she was afraid that she would hide her heart too deeply. I don't know which would suddenly break out one day, hurt others and herself. Lin Huazhi knew that she was fine, and there was no fluctuation in her heart. She was almost boundless, so there was nothing to be sad about.

But this plain mentality did not affect her persistence in another thing - her things will never be cheap to Cui Ting.

Yan Shaobai's business is not too bad, but in Lin Huazhi's opinion, Yan Shaobai is too soft-hearted, and he is not familiar with various businesses. At present, he can only maintain the scene before Chen Suyue's death. The collective resignation of the peripheral steward and the covesty of the clan made Lin Huazhi very worried. She was not sure how long Yan Shaobai would support this huge industry.

Just ten days before the marriage, the clan sent someone again. This time, a native uncle of Chen Suyue came. The uncle told Yan Shaobai that he could marry a bride, but he would not worship heaven and earth until a year later, otherwise Chen Suyue's clan would take back half of his property.

Yan Shaobai was puzzled: "Is this a clan rule? Why have you never heard Su Yue mention it before? He suspected whether his uncle deliberately embarrassed him. Last time before his uncle went to the accounting room, he actually reminded the accountant the night before and put away some important ** account books. That is to say, without Lin Huazhi's accident, what his uncle could see was only the tip of the iceberg.

Lin Huazhi stood behind Yan Shaobai and kept doubting. In her impression, there was no such provision in the clan rules. My uncle didn't say much. He asked Yan Shaobai to call out the rules of the Chen clan, and he understood at a glance.

Lin Huazhi went to find out the family rules received in Yan Shaobai's bedroom in person. Chen Suyue never read the thick book carefully. He thought it took up space and threw it at the bottom of the bed. Uncle turned to the end and pointed to one of them and looked at Yan Shaobai with a smile.

Yan Shaobai looked at it, and his face also sank.

"Shaobai, it's not that the clan deliberately wants to embarrass you. We have to abide by the rules set by our ancestors, mainly because we don't want everyone to suffer unnecessary losses. But it's only one year. It's not a big deal. Men are not like women. It's not easy to get married when they are old. Just wait for a year." Uncle said proudly.

Yan Shaobai didn't say anything. He was a visiting uncle, just like those women outside who married into their husband's house, with their husband's family as the top priority. If he can take Chen Suyue as the priority, he has to abide by Chen's rules.

Yan Shaobai took a deep breath: "That is, the rules set by the ancestors, and Shaobai should abide by them."

Lin Huazhi looked sideways. At this time, my uncle looked at Yan Shaobai's eyes as if he were looking at a joke, and his eyes were full of calculation. Lin Huazhi was angry, and the clan did not want to give up Chen Suyue's property at all. It seems that a year later, Yan Shaobai may not be able to marry Cui Ting. Maybe the clan will come up with some way to occupy this property.

Yan Shaobai said a few words with his uncle. When his uncle saw that Yan Shaobai was not interested, he got up early and left.

When all the unrelevant people retreated, Yan Shaobai rubbed his eyebrows and leaned against the chair tiredly.

Lin Huazhi didn't say anything. What can she say? Say something comforting? That seems too coquettish. Besides, didn't Uncle just help her with what he said? Cui Ting can't occupy Chen Suyue's things within a year.

But Lin Huazhi is still not happy. She really doesn't want to take advantage of Cui Ting, but she didn't say that she wanted to take advantage of the people in the clan.

She knows too much about those people in the Chen clan. They are like vampires. Just by looking at her uncle, she knows that the 80-year-old still dominates the position of patriarch, which is nothing more than wanting to take advantage of them.

Her things are hers and must not be given to outsiders.

Turned his head to look at Yan Shaobai. His eyes were closed as if he was asleep. Lin Huazhi looked at him quietly for a while and quietly walked out.

As soon as I went out, I saw Cui Shuang standing on the steps with an anxious face.

Recently, her relationship with Cui Shuang has been very stiff, and she can't figure out why the girl who used to be obedient now looks like a different person and is not popular at all. Has Cui Shuang been pretending in front of Chen Suyue at the beginning?

Lin Huazhi is not very good at thinking about it. It's okay to pretend to be cute for a while. He has been pretending for several years. That's not an ordinary person. Thinking of the situation when she returned to Chen's house and saw Cui Shuang for the first time in the lower courtyard, Lin Huazhi estimated that Cui Shuang may have experienced something after Chen Suyue's death, which led to a great change in her personality.

Thinking of this, Lin Huazhi's tone softened a little unconsciously: "Cui Shuang, are you looking for me?"

Cuishuang nodded, looked at her, turned around and walked forward to a secluded place.

Lin Huazhi followed Cui Shuang to a rockery on the west side. It was almost late autumn, and the weather was colder than a few days ago. Seeing that Cui Shuang was only wearing a back of armor, Lin Huazhi said worriedly, "It's almost winter. Put on more clothes and don't freeze."

Cui Shuang looked at her with a trace of confusion in his eyes, but soon, Cui Shuang coughed and turned the light in his eyes. He only heard her say, "Huazhi, can you help me take a few days off to Aunt Feng? I have something to go out of the house.

As Yan Cui's wedding is approaching, the house has been very busy recently, and everyone can't wait to have more hands.

At this time, Cui Shuang was about to leave the house, and Lin Huazhi was also a little strange. She was about to ask the reason. Suddenly, she remembered the words of her uncle just now. She couldn't get married, so naturally she had nothing to do.

Cui Shuang was even more anxious when she saw that Lin Huazhi didn't say anything. In fact, she had looked for Aunt Feng this morning, but Aunt Feng said that there was a shortage of people at home and she was not allowed to leave the house. If Lin Huazhi hadn't said something in front of the master now, Cui Shuangwan would not have been able to ask for her.

Cuishuang said again, "Huazhi, if it weren't for a last resort, I wouldn't want to embarrass you. Just help me."

Lin Huazhi was also going to answer her matter. At this time, she saw that Cui Shuang's words became more and more pitiful, and her heart softened: "Who doesn't have an emergency? Don't worry, I'm going to find Aunt Feng now. There should be no big problem."

Cui Shuang breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Lin Huazhi again.

After the accounting room, Aunt Feng became a little closer to Lin Huazhi. Seeing that she had a good relationship with Ruyi, she intended to cultivate Lin Huazhi, which showed that she had a clear mind, and Aunt Feng didn't think much about it.

Lin Huazhi told Aunt Feng about Cui Shuang. Aunt Feng's face was embarrassed. It was not that she was unhumane. It was really that there were many things in the house at present, and there was a shortage of people everywhere.

It's hard for Lin Huazhi to clearly say that Yan Shaobai will not marry Cui Ting until a year later. Seeing that Aunt Feng refused, she said, "Aunt Feng, a little girl won't miss anything. Well, I'll do Cui Shuang's work these days."

Hearing her say this, Aunt Feng couldn't say anything more. Thinking that Cui Shuang also came to beg her in the morning, it should be really a big deal, otherwise she didn't have to ask her to leave the house again and again.

Aunt Feng smiled and said, "Since you promised to take over her part, let Cui Shuang go and ask her to come back early after finishing the matter." After saying that, he turned over a sign and handed it to Lin Huazhi.

Cui Shuang got the card and knew that Lin Huazhi had taken over her matter. He was very grateful and said that he had accepted this favor. If there was anything in the future, Lin Huazhi would speak directly.

Lin Huazhi is actually curious about how Cui Shuang wants to leave the house at this time. You should know that Cui Shuang has no father or mother, and there are no brothers or sisters at home. What is she doing when she goes out of the house? Is it still at this time?

She is very interested in Cui Shuang's secrets.

However, this kind of interest did not last long. That night, the whole house knew that the marriage between Yan Shaobai and Cui Ting would be delayed for a year for some reason. Everyone did not know the truth and speculated that there were various theories.

Lin Huazhi listened for a while and then went back to the room in silence. When Xing'er came back, she wanted to ask several times, but seeing that Lin Huazhi's face refused to speak, Xing'er had to shut her mouth.

Later, Cui Ting suddenly appeared in Chen's house.

When any woman knows that she can't get married, she will definitely be upset and make a lot of noise, which Cui Ting is like this. This night, no one dared to approach the East Courtyard. Cui Ting and Yan Shaobai locked in the room. At first, they heard Cui Ting cry for a while, but soon, they didn't know what Yan Shaobai said to her. Cui Ting was not noisy, but cried all night.

Lin Huazhi didn't sleep well this night. She had been standing opposite the study. Through the reflection on the window, she saw Yan Shaobai walking around the room. She thought that Yan Shaobai was so uneasy that she should be very sad. Perhaps, in this sadness, Yan Shaobai will hate Chen Suyue. If Chen Suyue hadn't brought him back at the beginning, he wouldn't have been a door-in aunt, and he wouldn't have been so embarrassed today.

She couldn't help sighing and felt a little melancholy in her heart.

I don't know when the dark clouds quietly covered the bright moon, and the night became darker and colder.
