Lin Zhuwei sighed secretly, she never expected that the first mission after the time travel would be to "save herself".

While he was resting his chin on his hand, pondering what to do next, the cook came in with a team of servants, and quickly cleared the leftovers on the table and replaced them with freshly cooked meals.

"Young Madam, these are Dongpo Pork, Dong'an Chicken, Sweet and Sour Carp, Taibai Duck, Lion's Head with Crab Roe, Drunken Shrimp with Plum Wine, Feilong Soup, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and Steamed Chinese Cabbage." The cook introduced them one by one and led everyone away.

Lin Zhuwei stared at the table full of dishes in amazement.

Is this the amount for one person?!

"Madam, do you want to eat now?"

"She...I, I mean, do I eat so much every meal?"

The young lady's speech is a bit incoherent.

Could it be that he fell and became stupid?

Abu looked at the young lady with great concern:

"Madam, this is just the main course. There are still some desserts that have not been served. Do you want them together?"

Lin Zhuwei sighed and waved his hand: "How long does it take for me to have a meal?"

"Two hours."

Alas, this is the rhythm of courting death!

"Withdraw."

The four maids stared in disbelief.

Did he really fall down and become stupid?!

Abu became uneasy.

She was a little scared of this young lady whom she had never seen before.

"Wait." Lin Zhuwei waved her hand, and several maids looked over.

Has the young lady finally returned to normal? !

Abu's eyes were filled with emotion and anticipation, and he looked at her with a raised brow.

"Leave the steamed Chinese cabbage here. Remove the others, and prepare a bowl of porridge for me."

"This..." Abu hesitated.

"Just do as I say."

"Yes."

Abu was quite worried. He watched Lin Zhuwei calmly finish her cabbage porridge. Seeing that she didn't get angry as before, he felt relieved.

"Madam, what are you looking for?"

Seeing Lin Zhuwei looking around, A Bu stepped forward and asked.

"Where are the pen, ink, paper and inkstone?"

"Ah!" Abu was shocked.

It seems that the young lady has really become stupid after the fall. Do you want to ask a doctor to see her?

"Hmm?" Lin Zhuwei tilted her head and looked at her.

A Bu asked cautiously: "Madam, does your head hurt?"

Lin Zhuwei reacted quickly and smiled helplessly: "You are Abu, she is Xiaonian. The two at the door are Aju and Xiaoqi. Is that right?"

That’s right! All correct!

Abu's expression eased a little.

"So? Please bring me some pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

A Bu looked embarrassed: "Young Madam, we don't have it."

Lin Zhuwei was stunned for a moment, and then he thought that the original owner was not very literate, and pens, ink, paper and inkstone were the most "useless" things, so they would naturally not appear in this room.

Ok.

"Then go buy one." Lin Zhuwei instructed.

Unexpectedly, Abu was embarrassed again: "Madam, do you really need it?"

Lin Zhuwei was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Abu sighed almost inaudibly, "Madam, we are out of money."

Lin Zhuwei was slightly surprised: "Doesn't our mansion pay monthly wages?"

A Bu shook his head helplessly: "Madam, the monthly salary in our courtyard was twenty taels last month."

Twenty taels?

Lin Zhuwei silently and quickly calculated in his mind: This is not a small amount of money.

Here, a seventh-rank official only gets ten taels of silver a month, and even this is enough to cover the expenses of an entire family for the entire month.

"All spent?" Lin Zhuwei was stunned.

Abu looked at her strangely, wanting to complain but not daring to, so he could only swallow it back, like he had swallowed a fish bone, hard to swallow.

"Young Madam, this... have you forgotten everything?"

"Tell me." Lin Zhuwei began to feel something was wrong.

A Bu decided to get it out of the way: "Madam, not only are we out of money, we also owe outsiders 1,350 taels."

Oops! !

Lin Zhuwei covered her pounding heart, tried to suppress the corners of her mouth in surprise, not letting it utter "national quintessence", and asked hopefully: "Yes, it is one hundred and fifty taels, right?"

"Madam, it's 1,350 taels!" A Bu shattered her hopes and gave her a heavy blow, "Fuxilou owes 200 taels, Shuangxilou owes 300 taels, Fuguilou owes 250 taels, Yuanshoufang owes 200 taels, Caiyixuan owes 30 taels..."

Lin Zhuwei interrupted her, eyes full of disbelief: "They are all restaurants?"

"Cai Yi Xuan is a rouge shop."

Lin Zhuwei instantly felt like a deflated ball.

One thousand three hundred and fifty taels!

In the capital, a top-notch luxury house costs only over one hundred taels!

She ate up more than a dozen mansions!

This is the maximum limit for credit in various restaurants, not the maximum limit for her amount of food!

When others traveled through time, they were either concubines or medical geniuses, but when she traveled through time, she was not only ugly and fat, but also had a husband who regarded her as an enemy. The worst thing was that he had to pay off a lot of debts for her!

She didn't enjoy the blessing, and she suffered all the sins!

Oh my God, it would have been better if you had just let her die in that river!

"When did this bill start?" Lin Zhuwei asked persistently.

"It started half a year ago." A Bu explained, "The three thousand taels owed before were sent directly to the old lady's courtyard by the restaurant."

In order to calm things down, the old lady sent someone to settle the bill for her.

For this reason, the old lady also issued a notice to every restaurant, saying that they would never pay a penny of her debt again. If they didn't want to lose all their money, they should stop letting her eat on credit.

However, the restaurant had its own ulterior motives: the Fu family was a wealthy family, and this little money was just the tip of the iceberg for them. They wouldn't really watch the young lady being chased for debt by outsiders, would they? Wouldn't it be the Fu family that would be embarrassed?

All right. Lin Zhuwei was too tired to complain, her heart was bleeding.

The most urgent thing is to take care of the present.

"Go find Mr. Fu... find the accountant and borrow some pens, ink, paper and inkstone."

The most ordinary writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone cost thirty cents. She was a poor girl and didn't deserve to spend money.

Abu responded and hurried out.

When they reached the corner of the courtyard, Wu Er saw her with his sharp eyes and called out slightly, "A Bu, where are you going in such a hurry? You didn't even say hello to the young master when you saw him."

Only then did Abu notice the two of them, and he quickly turned back and bowed respectfully to Fu Junyan.

"Young Master is well."

"Is the young lady okay? Do you need to call a doctor?" Wu Er asked.

"Young Madam is not allowed to shout. She has bandaged herself." Abu explained.

Wu Er's eyes almost popped out when he heard this: "Young Madam will do it herself?"

"Yes."

Fu Junyan, on the other hand, stood tall and graceful, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, and his face was gloomy and his emotions could not be seen.

"Are you going to the accounting office?" Wu Er asked again.

"Yes, the young lady ordered me to go to the accounting office."

Hearing this, Wu Er was already somewhat dissatisfied. This month, the young lady had sent people to the accounting office five times and advanced one hundred taels in advance.

The cost of food, clothing and other expenses is much higher than that of the young master, almost catching up with the old lady.

Fu Junyan raised his eyes and looked into the distance, still silent.

On the contrary, Wu Er was outspoken and blurted out: "Young Madam, do you want another advance?"

A Bu quickly shook his head: "Manager Wu, you misunderstood. The young lady didn't ask for money this time. She just wanted me to ask the accountant to borrow a set of pens, ink, paper and inkstone."

Hearing this, Fu Junyan's expression became more sarcastic: "Instead of eating food, you eat ink? Unfortunately, no matter how much ink you have, you can't make a bundle of dry grass alive."

When Abu heard this, he dared not move.

It was Wu Er who understood what he meant and urged A Bu to leave quickly.

A Bu did not dare to delay and went to borrow pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and then conveyed the exact words to Lin Zhuwei.

Good fellow! This was a roundabout way of scolding her for being a drunkard and a fool.

It's a pity that I have to live under someone else's roof, so I have to endure this no matter how harsh it is.
