Chapter 37
Wen Jinyu sent Mrs. Wen Er away last night, and stayed up all night embroidering until midnight. She was still a little confused at this moment, and she couldn't help yawning blankly when she heard the words and asked, "What kind of charcoal is not charcoal? What are you talking about?" what?"

"Oh, miss, there is suddenly a basket of charcoal in the kitchen. I weighed it, and it weighs thirty catties." Song Jiayin said excitedly. "Master Shizi must have sent it here yesterday when he heard us say that we ran out of charcoal."

"Oh?" Wen Jinyu couldn't help being slightly taken aback when he heard that. "Really? Is there a basket of charcoal in the kitchen?"

"Of course it's true, miss, wait, I'll show you!" Seeing that she seemed a little disbelieving, Song Jiayin hurried out and brought in the basket of charcoal that had inexplicably been left in the kitchen. "Miss, look, it's the best silver frost charcoal, and there is no ordinary charcoal in it."

Silver Frost Charcoal is the highest grade smokeless charcoal. It is difficult to ignite, but it is not easy to extinguish after being ignited. Light a pot before going to bed at night, and there is no need to add charcoal throughout the night.

It stands to reason that in winter, her monthly allowance is 120 catties of silver frost charcoal for heating, and 150 catties of charcoal for boiling water and for Aunt Zheng. Two catties at night, but the eldest lady deducted it, not only the silver frost charcoal is not enough, but the charcoal given is also mixed with ordinary charcoal.

And ordinary charcoal has never been given enough weight.

Wen Jinyu looked at the basket of silver frost charcoal in a daze, just like Song Jiayin, except for Xuan Chen, she couldn't think of another person who would secretly give her charcoal.

All of a sudden, she felt her eyes a little sour, and she couldn't understand more and more why a person who treated her so badly in the past life treated her so well in this life?

"Miss, you can get up later, I'll light a pot of charcoal fire, and help you dry your clothes before you wear them." Song Jiayin excitedly grabbed some charcoal from the bamboo basket and threw it into the charcoal brazier, and then looked for something to ignite.

Wen Jinyu saw that she was in high spirits, and it was hard to dissuade her enthusiasm, so she let her do it.

For a while, after breakfast, Song Jiayin went out under Wen Jinyu's guidance. She had to learn how to manage things. When she came back, she secretly told Wen Jinyu that last night, the fire in Qiniang's yard killed Qiniang. His face was burned, and I heard that the burn was quite severe. Doctor He meant that even with the "Wuhen Cream" bestowed by the imperial palace, it is not so easy to restore his appearance.

Regarding this, Wen Jinyu was noncommittal.

Originally, she ordered Xuan Chen to do it for her. Qiniang could have such a result, which was naturally what she expected.

She didn't regret it at all, every time Liu Niang ordered someone to beat her, Qiniang was the first to hit her.

The story of that day gradually spread in the mansion, saying that Thirteen Niang was forced to hang herself that day, but Lord Yan asked Qiniang to go down because Qiniang committed too many evils.

What she didn't know was that Concubine Lian had told the eldest lady to enter the palace and reprimanded the eldest lady. It turned out that the news that the lady from the Wen family's eldest room forced the second lady to hang herself had already entered the palace. Into the ears of the queen mother and queen, even the emperor knew about it.

The Queen Mother scolded Concubine Lian, and Concubine Lian felt ashamed, so she called the eldest lady into the palace and scolded Concubine Lian.

Mrs. Wen felt aggrieved, and she didn't dare to have a fit in the palace. She did have a fit when she got home, but she didn't dare to provoke Wen Jinyu, the culprit, for fear that something would happen and she would lose face.
