Chapter 37 Getting rich overnight 1
"Good boy!" Seeing Jin Liu's loving motherly smile, the eldest lady glanced up and down at her attire and was even more satisfied, beckoning to her and pointing at the second lady, "This is your second aunt, you just came back I will come to see you, hurry up and call someone."

"Jin Liu met Second Aunt, thank you Second Aunt for caring." Jin Liu turned to Second Madam, bowed her knees and saluted.

"Get up... get up!" Although the second lady had already made preparations in her heart, since the eldest lady wanted Jin Liu to come out to meet people, she must have done a good job on the surface, but when she first saw Jin Liu's attire and her Her words and demeanor still surprised her, and she woke up when the eldest lady looked over, she got up with a smile and took Jin Liu's hand to look left and right, and boasted: "I haven't seen you for a year, the third girl is really getting better and better." You are getting more and more fresh, and this dress is good, how is your mother? I heard that she often suffered from rheumatism when she lived in the West Side Courtyard... The place in the West Side Courtyard is damp and wet, how is it now?"

When the second lady mentioned Madam Ru and the West Side Courtyard, she undoubtedly wanted to remind Jin Liu who made her and her mother live such a hard life for so long. Of course Jin Liu could hear this, but she didn't show any signs of it on her face. With the same emotion, still bowing his head and smiling slightly, he said, "It's much better, thank you for your concern, Second Aunt."

The second lady was slightly taken aback. It seemed that this girl was the one who had healed her scar and forgot the pain. It was meaningless to say anything more. Even if she wanted to go back, she was unwilling, so she took it off her wrist at will. He picked up a bracelet and handed it to Jin Liu, it should be considered as a congratulatory gift from her.

The second lady was bleeding, and the eldest lady was happy, Jin Liu naturally accepted it happily, and sang and sang a few words with the eldest lady, after making the second lady's face ugly, she got the permission of the eldest lady to go back.

"Miss San, you just sang with the eldest lady, but the second lady is very angry." Entering the Furong Garden, Jiaqin, who had been holding back for a long time, burst out laughing and said.

Jin Liu also smiled and asked, "What kind of person is this second aunt?"

"She!" Jiaqin withdrew her smile and curled her lips, "On the surface, she is a good person, but in fact she is just calculating her own little account!"

"Oh? How do you say it?" Jin Liu didn't rush back to the house, turned around and stood beside a camellia tree, and asked.

Jiaqin picked off a yellowed dead leaf, thought for a while, and said: "The second wife is from a small household, and her natal family lives in Changzhou City, not far from the capital. The second wife's father is a merchant in Changzhou City. There are a few shops in the city, they are pretty good ones, but compared with Da Furen's natal family, they are a bit out of reach there."

"I heard that Da Furen's father was working in Zhan Shi's Mansion before he retired." Jin Liu said.

"Yes, it's the young Zhan Shi of Zhan Shifu, the official rank of the fourth grade." Jiaqin echoed: "The house we live in was bought based on the relationship between the in-laws and the master."

No wonder the Elder Master shouldn't put on airs in front of the Eldest Madam, Jin Liu nodded and motioned Jiaqin to continue talking.

"In addition to the master of the Qin family, the eldest lady's natal family also has two uncles who are also officials at court, and there is another elder sister. Miss has already met."

"Mrs. Liu, Minister of the Ministry of Rites."

"Yes, Mrs. Shangshu is the eldest lady's sister." Jiaqin became more and more excited as she spoke, and continued: "The eldest lady has such a background, and the second lady is naturally inferior, but the second lady is different and she is the eldest lady. The ones that are beyond reach are the heirs. The second wife gave birth to two sons and one daughter for the second master, and although the eldest lady also gave birth to a boy for the elder master, she did not keep it. There are only two young ladies under her knees, and the other is... ...The Second Master's medical skills." Speaking of the last sentence, Jiaqin suddenly lowered her voice.

"Oh?" Jin Liu also became interested, and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that second uncle's medical skills are better than father's?"

Jiaqin's expression became serious when she heard this, she glanced left and right, nodded solemnly and said: "Everyone in the mansion knows about this, but no one dares to mention it. You can't sit on the envoy of the Supreme Hospital!"

"What?" Jin Liu looked at Jiaqin in surprise.

Jiaqin thought for a while before she opened her mouth and said, "Miss San and Mrs. Ru lived in the West Side Courtyard for a long time. They must not know that when the late emperor was alive, the Elder Master and the Second Master served by his side. At that time, the Emperor trusted the Second Master most. Emperor Hui Xian suddenly fell ill, and the Eighth Prince... the current emperor announced overnight that the court envoy Mr. Cao would enter the palace for medical treatment. Mr. Cao is over eighty years old. Although he is skilled in medicine, his health is not good. Fainted out, the Eighth Prince had no choice but to announce the Second Master, who often took care of the late Emperor, into the palace. The Second Master was treating the old lady in General Bai's mansion at that time. By the time the second master pulled the old lady back from the ghost gate and drove her into the palace, the elder master had already rescued the late emperor. The eighth prince was very angry when he saw the second master. For the sake of the elder master, he didn't reprimand the second master. , but since then, the Eighth Prince has attached great importance to the Grand Master, and it is precisely because of this incident that after the Eighth Prince ascended the throne, the Eighth Prince allowed Mr. Cao to sue, and let the Grand Master be the court envoy."

"Speaking of which, it was indeed father who saved the late emperor. Isn't the position of court envoy his father's right?" Jin Liu asked with a frown.

But Jiaqin shook her head, "This is just a superficial matter. In fact, there are rumors in both mansions that at that time the emperor suddenly fainted and the old man expected it. When the old lady of General Bai's mansion needed emergency treatment, it was Eldest Master, it is the Second Master who the Eldest Master said was inconvenient to go because of an urgent matter, so he asked the people from the General’s Mansion to invite the Second Master. ...and the slaves heard that even the prescription for Elder Master to save the late emperor was written by Second Master in advance for Elder Master!" Jiaqin's voice became weaker as she spoke, and her voice became tense.

"There is such a thing!" Jin Liu looked at Jiaqin in surprise, and suddenly understood why Princess Bining had such an attitude towards the eldest lady. Presumably, this matter could not be hidden from General Bai's mansion. Madam can pass to General Bai's Mansion, even if she can't sit in the position of envoy, she can still surround General Bai's Mansion, and General Bai's Mansion can have the honor it has now, presumably the eldest lady and the great master have never thought of it, no wonder Second Madam is now She was still able to stand up, and besides the inside story that was unknown to outsiders at the time, there was also the solid backing of General Bai's Mansion, but the second lady didn't seem like a person who would swallow her anger. Didn't she have trouble with this matter?
"Why not, the second wife came to the mansion to make trouble on the day when the Elder Master was promoted, talking about conspiracies and tricks in front of the Elder Master, a sinister villain, the slaves were still working in the main courtyard at that time, it was true, the mansion A lot of people know about it too."

"What then?"

"Later, the second master came to take the second lady back." Jiaqin sighed softly, a little bit to complain for the second master.

"The second master has no opinion on this matter?"

"Why not? It's obviously my credit, but it was easily taken away by others, not to mention that there are calculations in it." Jiaqin said: "It's because of a letter from the old lady that the second master took this Things endured."

"You mean the grandmother in my hometown?" Jin Liu asked, and was surprised to see Jiaqin nodding her head again. It's a big deal for an old lady who is far away from the capital to control her two sons who are in important positions. It can only be done with the prestige of the old lady. In this way, the eldest lady will suddenly change her attitude towards her and Mrs. Ru, and the change is so thorough, it must have something to do with the old lady.

"So, even though that incident has subsided, the tone in the second lady's heart is hard to calm down after all, so she will come to provoke the eldest lady from time to time, what kind of heirs, flat wives, first-line lady, after all, the second lady is nothing but I want to be angry with Da Furen, otherwise why would she just talk about it every time she comes back to the mansion, and never go to see Madam Ru and Miss..."

Jiaqin was still babbling, but Jinliu couldn't listen to anything. She looked up into the air with sparkling eyes, as if she saw a huge thigh waiting for her to hug!

According to Daqin's rules, birthday banquets are always held at noon, and after half an hour, people who worked overtime arrived at the envoy's mansion. Within a quarter of an hour, the big red stage was set up in the garden behind the main courtyard, with the sound of clanging gongs and drums. I heard it endlessly. When the Eldest Master came out from the palace after taking leave, he had already sang for a while with Hua Dan, who was working overtime. On the opposite side of the stage, Jin Liu is the birthday star, sitting next to the Da Furen, next to the Eighth Young Master, but Madam Ru is only sitting far away in the corner.

"Brother is here." The second lady was not in the mood to watch the play, she saw the Eldest Man as soon as he stepped into the stands, stood up with a smile and saluted.

"Siblings are here too." Because of who was the envoy of the courtyard, the Eldest Master was pointed at his nose and scolded by the Second Madam, so he was naturally a little embarrassed when he saw her, so he nodded and responded casually.

"Why don't you say that I'm lucky? I just came back today and it happened to be the third girl's birthday, so I brazenly stayed and begged for a glass of wine. Brother, don't dislike me!" The second lady seemed to be fine, so she said Tsukuru sighed inadvertently and said: "Brother, the court envoy is a good person, and he can take care of things at home. My master doesn't have this blessing. He didn't even come to see me off when I went back to my mother's house. I just went back and asked. I haven't returned home for three days, and I don't know if I'm really so busy."

As soon as the second lady's words fell, the Eldest Master's expression turned ugly, even the Eldest Madam frowned, and the stands fell silent, only the old student on the opposite side was still shouting loudly.

"What?" The elder looked down at Jin Liu, and everyone followed his gaze.

Jin Liu lowered her head shyly, twisted the hem of her clothes, and asked in a low voice, "Today is Jin Liu's birthday. My mother, eldest sister and several aunts all sent congratulatory gifts to Jin Liu. Even Bi Ning The Princess and the Sixth Young Master of the Bai family have given away, so doesn't father have anything to give to Jin Liu?" After speaking, Jin Liu raised her big black eyes and looked at the elder expectantly.
