Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 479

"Ma'am, are you tired? Why don't you rest for a while?" Sister-in-law Xu whispered, looking at Lin's face.

Lin pushed the account book away, raised her hand to pinch her forehead distractedly: "I don't read it today, I feel very upset."

Sister-in-law Xu knew what was on her mind, so she didn't dare to say anything at this time, she just stepped forward to put away the account book, and poured her another cup of warm honey tea.

Lin held up the teacup, and there was a sweet and soft fragrance against her face, she couldn't help but frowned, and put the teacup aside: "It's sweet and greasy, it's hot in this day, who wants to drink it? Change it to Anzhou dry tea."

Sister-in-law Xu hurriedly agreed, took down the teacup and went to the side to change tea, Lin's frowning did not relax, and said: "Tell me, what is the meaning of the Xiao family? Why did you single out this time?" Want to find a wife for Xiao Erlang? Could it be that Mrs. Xiao has forgotten my A Wan? It’s in vain that I promised her so carefully earlier, and lent the big study in front to the gentlemen of the Xiao family. It's up to them to study and practice calligraphy in there. Even the gentlemen of the West Courtyard have not received such courtesy."

The more she talked, the less angry she became, and she couldn't help clapping her hands on the wooden case. The sound of "bang bang" set off her angry voice, and just listening to it made people feel irritable for no reason.

While cleaning the teacup, Mrs. Xu comforted her and said, "Ma'am, why should you be in a hurry? Now it's just the Xiao family's birthday party, and it's not true that the Xiao family wrote a marriage letter with someone else's family. Madam just listen to these rumors." Forget it. Besides," she lowered her voice a little, and put the changed tea in Lin's hand again: "the mansion is keeping a filial piety, and for the sake of the reputation of the two girls, the madam has to put down her mind , everything will have to wait until the filial piety period has passed.”

How could Mrs. Lin not understand this truth?She also knew that this was the period of filial piety, and it was impossible to discuss engagement with Qin Yanwan and the others.However, the feeling of being led by the nose by the Xiao family, and Mrs. Tai's overt and secret disapproval attitude made her feel unspeakably resentful.

"Tell me, could this be caused by Mrs. Yu?" Mrs. Lin said suddenly, her plump and bright face was full of suspicion at this moment, "Aunt Taijun didn't treat this matter like this at first. Yes, now I don’t know why, every time I mention Xiao Erlang, Aunt Taijun always refuses to answer my words. I thought, only Xiaoya in this mansion can be compared with my Awan. If Mrs. Yu I went to beg Tai Jungu on my mind, and Tai Jungu probably agreed to her because of her pitiful widowhood."

At the moment, her heart and eyes are full of Xiao Erlang, and no one looks like a good person, especially Yu Shi and Qin Yanya, who have become her sworn enemies.

Sister-in-law Xu knows her temperament well, if she insists on persuading her at this time, she will definitely make Lin think about the other end, and maybe she will go into a dead end again.So she thought for a while, then took a step forward and said softly: "It doesn't matter whether this matter has anything to do with Da Furen or not, Madam, it's time to put on some gestures."

Mrs. Lin raised an eyebrow in puzzlement, and cast half of her gaze at Mrs. Xu, asking with a hint of displeasure, "Pose? What kind of pose do I want to pose? What do you mean by that?"

A trace of fear appeared on Mrs. Xu's face, she lowered her head and said: "I'm afraid I'm presumptuous when I say this, and I have to ask Madam to forgive me first before I dare to say it."

"You just say it, I don't blame you." Lin said impatiently.She has always trusted Mrs. Xu very much, and now she is even more eager to hear her opinion.

Xu's sister-in-law then said softly: "If you want me to say, Madam treated Mr. Xiao family too well before, I'm afraid it was a little too much. I remember Madam said a very reasonable thing before, called too much is too late. Thinking of Madam's knee Of the two girls, which one is not an outstanding talent? Even Man Jiangyang County can't find anyone who can compare with the second lady and the fourth lady. Madam should put on airs at this time, and the gentlemen of the Xiao family should also It doesn’t have to be so good, just respect it according to the usual etiquette.”

As long as Xiao Erlang is involved in this topic, Lin will always be able to listen patiently. At this moment, she doesn't speak, but frowns.

Seeing that she was not displeased, Sister-in-Law Xu knew that she had listened to her a little bit, so she said, "Don't talk about anything else, just talk about the big study, Madam should seal it up as it is, and that book was used by Mr. Yes, how can it be used by people who have nothing to do with it? Besides, I didn’t say that with the appearance of the second lady and the fourth lady, even if they go to the Guan family to be the wife, they are worthy of it. Why should the lady always focus on it? On the Xiao family?"

At this point, Mrs. Xu deliberately lowered her voice, and leaned into Lin's ear and said: "I also heard a news yesterday that the two gentlemen of Linqiu Xue's family are likely to come to Pingcheng again. It will take quite a while. Madame thinks about it, the mansion will be able to get rid of clothes in October, and at that time, Madam only needs to find the Tao family lady to mention it, then..."

She didn't say anything further when she said this, and only gave Lin a meaningful wink.

Mrs. Lin listened in a daze at first, and then suddenly she was enlightened, her whole face lit up with joy, and she clapped her hands together: "Oh, yes, I just remembered when you said that, I vaguely heard someone say However, Master Tao and the two gentlemen of the Xue family are very close."

Mrs. Xu immediately complimented: "Madam has a really good memory, I've heard people say that too."

Lin's eyes began to shine, and his face was full of smiles, as if both Xue Dalang and Xue Erlang were standing in front of her, and it seemed as if she could choose one of them to be her son-in-law. Closed, said repeatedly: "Exactly, it is because you are well-informed and think far."

Seeing this, Sister-in-Law Xu's heart was finally relieved, and she reminded again: "Since Madam has thought of this, first one, the news that the two gentlemen of the Xue family are coming, should not be spread to the outside world, so as not to let others know, and grab the news." It is for your benefit; one more thing, it is not good for you and the Xiao family to get too close. First of all, the study of Mr. Xianlang must be vacant, and the Lord of the Xiao family cannot be allowed to stay in it all day long. People overheard me flipping through the book to find something, and they thought our Qin family wanted to curry favor with Xiao family."

Lin was smiling all over her face at this time, but after a while, she frowned again, and said hesitantly: "What you said...can you do it right? If I let go, There is nowhere to go at the other end, and Awan will be delayed."

Sister-in-law Xu let out a snort, and said nonchalantly, "Ma'am just thinks too much. Even if you take a step back and say that the Xue family can't make it, you can still go back and talk to the Xiao family. After all, the current government Li Shouxiao, you are tied up in everything you do now, you simply do nothing, you can still get a good reputation, can't you? When Mr. Xue's family comes, and he hears that my Qin family's family style is so upright, he must think highly of Qin My little lady has two eyes."
