Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Chapter 394 Dowry can be embroidered at any time

Seeing that Qingwen was still in a dilemma, Nanny Lai continued,

"I know this is not an easy thing to do. You need to take responsibility. This matter still needs to be asked of your young lady."

"Just think of it as repaying me for saving you when I bought you from a human trafficker."

"You're so skinny that you're just a few ounces of bone."

When Qingwen heard this, her eyes became moist. She bit her lip and nodded.

"Mammy, I will do my best."

Nanny Lai laughed with relief, "Qingwen, I was right about you. As long as you try your best, this matter will be very successful."

Qingwen put the banknote away and said to Lai Ma in a calm tone,

"Mammy, don't talk about the bribe. I will keep this part for you and return it to you in the future."

The wrinkles on Lai's mother's face bloomed into chrysanthemums when she smiled.

"In that case, please help me keep these too!"

As she spoke, she took out a few stacks of banknotes from her bosom.

Qingwen's eyes were about to pop out.

……

Xue Family,

The sunlight shines through the window lattice, dimly illuminating the shadows of the people in the house, which become long and short.

Xue Baochai was stroking the jade in her hand. She had secretly taken it back while paying tribute to Jia Jing.

Now she was hesitating, walking back and forth with the jade in her hand.

The news from outside was passed on early in the morning as if it were new news.

Xue Baochai really thought it was a fairy tale. The change of dynasties was not bloody.

This is simply child's play.

Not to mention the throne, even if a family has some property, even a shop or an acre of land, they have to fight for victory or defeat.

Is this the country, the throne?

It's not just about collecting a few more buckets of grain, nor is it just a few taels of silver.

Is someone spreading rumors?

So, Xue Baochai frowned slightly and immediately told Ying'er to go out and inquire.

Even though we moved to a new house and had a few new people, it’s only been a few days.

How can we trust?

With cousins?

Isn't this a joke? No one else has it, it's better than having it yourself.

The corners of Xue Baochai's mouth drooped.

At this moment, Ying'er came back from outside.

A look of surprise and panic came over me...

She came into the room, her hands were shaking, she took a few breaths, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then said,

"Miss, I just went to ask."

"It's true! This must be true!"

"It is said that all the civil and military officials saw it."

"Jia Jing of the Jia family killed the entire royal family, and his descendants will be extinct..."

As she spoke of this, Ying'er's face became even paler, completely bloodless.

It seemed as if he was seriously short of air and he didn't even notice his voice trembling or his words were panicking.

The young lady's life is so miserable. She has finally struggled to escape from her father's death and her brother's evil.

I'm going to marry into the Duke's Mansion and become a lady.

It happened again.

Isn't this going to die?

Ying'er's heart was in turmoil.

"Miss, what should I do?"

She was a little at a loss.

Xue Baochai's mind went blank for a moment. Is it really so difficult for a human to fight against nature?

Oh my God, did I also cut off your roots in my previous life?

Her ears were buzzing, as if countless sounds were drilling into her mind.

She shook her head painfully, trying to calm herself down.

The sun is shining outside, and I haven't even married yet, so why am I so busy? For whom am I working so hard and for whom is my happiness?

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath, calmed down, and continued to ask,

"Have you heard any news about the Jia family?"

When asked about the Jia family, Ying'er looked very strange.

With his mouth slightly open, he looked as if he had no idea where to start.

"Miss, you're right. The Jia family refused to give up and went to visit the Lin family early this morning, but was turned away."

After saying that, she pursed her lips tightly.

Xue Baochai closed her eyes, leaned on the table, and let the sunlight hit her face.

This way, the coldness in my heart will fade away faster.

The jade pendant in my hand became heavier.

"Miss!" Ying'er beside her called out cautiously.

"Do you think we should visit the Lin family?"

Xue Baochai turned around when she heard this.

A slight smile,

"We don't need to, because we are not as good as the Jia family at this moment."

“But it’s coming soon.”

"It's not us who are flying up, but some people are going to fall down."

"Some people have to adjust their mindset."

"Besides, the Lin family is in a state of turmoil right now. If we go there now, wouldn't it be like holding hot coals?"

"Not only can you not warm yourself, you will also get burned."

"We won't do such stupid things."

The young lady's words were always so profound that Ying'er chewed them over twice but still couldn't understand them.

I simply don't understand and leave everything to the lady.

"Miss, what do we do now?"

So she continued to ask.

Xue Baochai's face was calm again. She straightened up and seemed to be relieved.

"Wait, wait for someone to come and beg us."

At this moment, Ying'er seemed to see the flower frame in the corner, which seemed to be at the same stage as two days ago.

She cried out in surprise,

"Alas, young lady, I have not yet finished my trousseau for these two days."

"I'll go now."

Xue Baochai's eyes fell on the rolling clouds outside.

Indifferently said,

"Don't worry, there's no need to worry about the dowry. There's plenty of time."

“You can embroider it anytime.”

"Let's go see what mother is busy with."

"If you have nothing to do, let's go out for a walk."

"I've been in the capital for so many years, but I haven't been out yet."

"I heard that the capital is more prosperous than Jinling."

"Bring your cousins ​​with you, and let's go for a walk too."

After saying this, Xue Baochai stood up and put the jade into her makeup box.

"Miss, isn't it said that ladies from wealthy families can't go out casually?"

Although Ying'er felt happy about going out for a stroll, she also remembered that young ladies were not allowed to go out casually.

Xue Baochai chuckled, "Ying'er! This is different now."

"In Jinling, we can still do whatever we want, but here, we feel a little restrained."

"It's so hard to move out, so it's naturally easier now."

At this point, Xue Baochai ordered, "Bring me my spring clothes."

"Let's go to Mother's."

"Maybe there's always a way out when you think there's no way out!"

……

Lin Yongyi, who was helping at the palace gate, now had a mixed expression on his face.

Although his mouth was open, he couldn't laugh.

Oh my god! I looked down on her and couldn't compare to her back then.

The boss that I always wanted to surpass turned out to be King Nan'an.

I'm going to be the emperor again.

From now on, I will never be the boss again!

Where can I go to seek justice? Where can I go to seek justice?

Since we have Yu, why do we have Liang?

There will never be a chance for me to make a comeback.

Who would have thought? Who would have thought?

Lin Yongyi still feels that everything is so unreal.

Maybe this is all a dream!

Fortunately, my current job is to watch others register or something.

If I were to write it myself, there's no guarantee that my hands wouldn't tremble with excitement.

The Emperor, His Majesty, the Empress Dowager, Concubine Zhen, ...

Each of them is a big shot.

They are all gathered together.

Funerals are complicated and even talented people like me were called over to help.

It can be seen how busy Uncle Hai and the boss among bosses are.

I am so lucky. If I hadn't followed Uncle Hai, I wouldn't have such knowledge.

It’s worth it, it’s worth it!

When I get back, I'll have the place where the boss lived sealed off.

The hidden residence!

Stay with me!

It's too easy for this honor to make people feel proud.

……

In the inner hall of the imperial palace, Prince Nan'an was sitting opposite Lin Ruhai.

The two seemed to be on the verge of a fight.

"Teacher! Do you want to protect the Jia family?"

King Nan'an held a jade lion in his hand and tapped the table with a "click, click" sound.

Waiting for Lin Ruhai's reply.

Lin Ruhai sighed.

"Do you want to kill them all, regardless of age?"
