Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Chapter 393: Cunning Nanny Lai

"Let's go! I'm going to close the store."

Uncle Fu greeted the others and directly ordered the guards, "Close the door!"

"This happened suddenly today, please forgive me."

As he spoke, old man Fu went back inside and closed the doors.

Shrinking.

Uncle Fu really doesn't want to offend anyone. It's not easy for the master to get to where he is today.

If you offend a big or small person because of a word from you, you can't make up for it even if you sacrifice your life.

However, there were only maids, old women, and guards left in the mansion.

We can't just fight at the door today!

Wouldn't it be bad for the master if this got out?

His Majesty and the Emperor Emeritus are both gone. The palace is in a state of panic right now. So many eyes are watching us. I can't let anything go wrong here.

Thinking of this, Uncle Fu really closed the door and refused to see visitors.

Only the basket was left at the door.

When people outside see this, they realize that no one is watching and they just put the things in the basket, what if they lose them?

At this time, only Fu Bo's voice came from inside.

"If you are in a hurry, please push it in through the crack of the door!"

"In the basket, I will also have the guards go out and get it every hour, please forgive me."

After saying this, Uncle Fu felt that there was no one outside and he felt bored, so he walked away slowly.

But Uncle Fu is old, and his thinking cannot keep up with the times.

Some people really don't find boredom interesting; they can find their own fun.

……

At the door, the Lin family quickly had someone bring in a table and chairs, put them aside, and left two people there, under the pretext of helping.

The Jia family also got a set of tables and chairs, leaning against the other side.

Two people were also left to help in a big way.

The two sides would occasionally exchange insults.

"You Jia family, why are you not at home, hiding like a turtle? Why are you here to make trouble?"

"You are the Lin family's land. Why don't you farm in Suzhou? Why are you here to get some oil?"

"I heard that your Jia family committed a capital crime, the kind that means death by all means."

"I heard that your Lin family's ancestral tomb was dug up, and it was dug up completely...."

Those who had nothing to do were not in a hurry to leave.

This Western scene is very interesting!

……

When Lady Jia in the sedan chair saw this, she knew that she could not see anyone today no matter what.

Mrs. Wang was still standing by, gritting her teeth and saying,

“Look at the bumpkin head of the Lin family, he’s still poking there, isn’t he ashamed?”

Grandmother Jia rolled her eyes at her and said, "What kind of shame is this? He is feeling very happy right now."

“Standing here for a few days, and returning to the Lin family land, his prestige will rise to a higher level.”

"Do you think he's going to be the boss here?"

"No matter how stupid he is, he knows it's impossible."

"But Yingchun has such a father-in-law, but she has to bear it."

At this time, the maid who was there came back and asked, "Grandma, what's going to happen next?"

"Alas," Jia's mother sighed deeply.

He said to the maid, "Just leave two people there, let's go to the Nan'an Palace."

Mrs. Xing was startled.

My mother! We can’t even get in here. The Nan’an Palace is the future residence of the emperor. We have to fight our way out!”

Grandmother Jia glanced at him, nodded, and told her solemnly,

"Yes, you might get beaten up, but you have to go. Do you dare?"

"Do you think it's easy to support a family?"

Mrs. Xing took a deep breath, ready to retort, but swallowed it back.

"Okay, if you're not afraid, why should I be afraid?"

This is when Mrs. Wang suddenly discovered a problem, "Where is Madam Lai?"

"I didn't notice Madam Lai in the commotion just now. Where did she go?"

The maid stamped her feet and said, "Oh my, my second wife, that cunning bastard Lai Ma, I don't know how she told Uncle Fu, but Uncle Fu let her in."

Mrs. Wang's face immediately drooped, "You are so stupid that you can't even keep an eye on one person."

"She followed right behind, don't you know why you let her go?"

"Could it be that she has some connection with Uncle Fu?"

The maid lowered her head and said nothing, and Grandmother Jia also lowered her head and thought for a while.

After all, I couldn't tie Nanny Lai's legs.

This old thing!

"Let's go! To the Nan'an Palace!"

The carriage turned around and rumbled away.

Tanchun and the others in the back car opened the curtain and looked out, seeing the bustle at the Lin family's gate.

The gloom and disappointment in his eyes overflowed unconsciously.

Everything seems to be eternity.

Jia Baoyu pinched his forehead tightly, looking dazed.

……

In the Lin family's side courtyard,

Nanny Lai took out several dozen banknotes from her bosom.

Put it on the table.

Qingwen looked at the banknotes and was a little confused.

"Mammy, what do you mean?"

Nanny Lai smiled with great difficulty and bitterness. She looked at Qingwen in front of her, who was completely different from the little maid she used to be.

"Qingwen, the shopkeeper."

"I've heard it all."

"Can I use this money to invest in your shop?"

Qingwen's eyes flickered slightly, and then she shook her head.

Nanny Lai's expression changed, "Why, not enough?"

Qingwen saw that Nanny Lai had misunderstood, so she hurriedly explained, "Nanny, that's not the case. I can't make the decision on the shareholding."

"Everything is decided by the young lady."

“I just run the business.”

"Besides, due to the continuous national mourning, we basically didn't make any money!"

"I only sold some white cloth."

Nanny Lai smiled and expressed her understanding.

"That's right. It's because I don't make any money that it's appropriate for me to invest."

"It's a national mourning now, won't it be a celebration after a while?"

"Your Majesty is young at the time of his ascension to the throne, and there will be plenty of happy occasions in the future."

"You can tell your young lady, and then tell me about being a maid."

"Especially for a big boss like you, it's understandable that you keep some private money. You need money to take care of everything."

When Qingwen heard this, she waved her hands repeatedly.

"Mammy, I will never forget your kindness in saving my life, but please don't say this again."

"I, Qingwen, owe you too much in my life, and Miss also saved my life."

"Thank you for thinking highly of me, Miss. Maybe she thinks highly of my loyalty and loyalty."

Nanny Lai felt secretly sorry.

Alas! I can’t buy shares, so I can only proceed to the next step.

She pushed the banknote in front of Qingwen again.

"Qingwen, Mammy came here today to ask you for a favor. You have to accept the silver."

Qingwen looked at Nanny Lai's face in surprise, waiting for her next step.

She knew Nanny Lai, and she knew that this person would never come to her house unless there was something important to do.

The wrinkles on Nanny Lai's face were sad.

"You also know that my Lai family has been servants of the Jia family for generations, and we have accumulated some wealth."

"The current situation of the Jia family..."

At this point, Lai Ma paused, wiped her tears, and continued,

"We don't want to be sold by the government to other families as slaves anymore."

"The next generation will be raised by young masters and ladies, and will be able to study and paint."

“I just want them to have a future.”

"If that day really comes, our family will be sold out."

"I hope you, Qingwen, can lend a hand and buy our family out."

"This is our money for selling our bodies."

At this point, Nanny Lai took out another dozen from her bosom.

"I won't let you work in vain. Here's some silver as a thank you."
