The boss of the end of the world wears a red building, if you don't agree, just hold it
Chapter 26 A good show
Not to mention other families, even his Lin family, going back generations, was a family of marquises, but now they have lost their hereditary titles.
Relying on the merits of ancestors, living off the past and not striving for progress, it is only a matter of time before you go downhill.
If Lin Ruhai were like Jia Baoyu, the Lin family would have been gone long ago.
Lin Chengyu knew that Grandmother Jia wanted to protect the Jia family, but she was powerless. It was normal for her to hold on tightly as soon as she smelled a glimmer of hope.
But he didn't want to become a vine for the Jia family to climb up.
Mrs. Wang watched the two of them not getting to the point, and became anxious. She ignored Lady Jia's expression and said directly, "Brother Lin, you also know that your sister Yuanchun has been walking on thin ice in the palace these years, doing nothing but serving others. If you can help her, she will never forget the Lin family in the future."
Lin Chengyu suddenly realized that it was this matter and had nothing to do with the stone egg.
He said, "Second Aunt, it's not that I don't want to help, but how can I get involved in the deep palace?"
Madam Wang said, "Everyone knows that you are on good terms with Prince Linhuai. How can he not help you if you just say a word?"
She is quite good at employing people. Lin Chengyu looked embarrassed and hesitated for a moment, then spoke a little embarrassedly: "If I tell the prince that I have a sister in the palace who wants to be a concubine, he will definitely think that I am the kind of person who approaches him only for profit. He might get angry and the result will be counterproductive."
Mrs. Wang didn't expect him to be so stupid, and was choked by his words "wanting to be an imperial concubine". Although she thought so in her heart, it sounded unpleasant to say it out loud.
She threw her handkerchief away and said anxiously, "Why don't you be more tactful and think of a way to let him bring it up himself? This way, people won't think you are too utilitarian and you can get the job done."
After that, she changed the subject and added, "Don't worry, if you want money, just ask."
Lin Chengyu's face turned a little ugly. Grandmother Jia thought something was wrong and quickly scolded Mrs. Wang to shut up.
Sure enough, Lin Chengyu got annoyed after hearing this, and said in a cold and distant tone: "Aunt, what are you talking about? Do you think I am the kind of person who doesn't recognize relatives and only cares about money?"
After being scolded by Lady Jia, Mrs. Wang dared not speak anymore and stood aside feeling indignant.
In her opinion, Lin Chengyu was making excuses. He had a good enough relationship with Prince Linhuai that he could live in the palace, but he just refused to give in. Wasn't he just trying to get money?
He is so materialistic at such a young age.
It seems that what Jia Min taught is just this.
So what if my father was a top scholar in the imperial examination? He was just an ordinary official without a title. How could he compare with the Duke's Mansion?
Even if her Baoyu did not take the imperial examination, he would still enjoy unlimited glory after inheriting the title.
Grandmother Jia didn't expect Mrs. Wang to be so useless. She immediately scolded her and said to Lin Chengyu, "Your aunt didn't mean that. She said that if you need money to smooth the relationship, you can ask for it. There is no reason to ask you, a child, to pay for work for the Jia family."
Mrs. Wang was frightened by Lady Jia's eyes and nodded quickly, "Don't be angry, Brother Lin, I was anxious for a moment and spoke nonsense, so you misunderstood me."
Lin Chengyu's expression eased a little, and she said, "Grandmother, this matter needs to be carefully considered. I will think of a way and propose it to the prince, but I cannot guarantee whether it will work."
Mrs. Wang said anxiously, "It will definitely work. It will definitely work."
Grandmother Jia said sternly, "Shut up. Chengyu is willing to help because he is a family relative. Whether he can succeed is up to Yuanchun."
The sight of the two singing in unison was truly wonderful.
Grandmother Jia turned her head to look at Lin Chengyu, and she looked like a gentle and kind old lady again, "You don't need to think too much. Even if it doesn't work out, it's her destiny to let Sister Yuanchun serve people in the palace for the rest of her life. No one can blame you."
Lin Chengyu nodded, not because of this sentence, but because of Lady Jia's acting skills.
This old lady is really fighting for the Jia family.
If it weren't for Jia Min's sake, he would not be willing to pretend to be nice to her.
After Lin Chengyu came out of Jia Mu's courtyard, she turned to see Jia Min and Lin Daiyu.
When Jia Min saw him, she was a little surprised. "When did you come back? Why didn't you let anyone know?"
Lin Chengyu sat down to drink tea, took out some new and interesting things he had acquired and gave them to Daiyu to play with.
"My grandmother is ill and sent someone to see me."
After Lin Chengyu finished speaking, Jia Min looked anxious and stood up to go and take a look, but was stopped by Lin Chengyu again.
"Grandma is not sick. She asked me to come back because she wanted to discuss something with me." Lin Chengyu helped Jia Min sit down and poured her tea.
Jia Min had not expected this to happen, so she asked, "What's the matter?"
Lin Daiyu also looked at him curiously.
Lin Chengyu said: "My grandmother asked me to ask the prince for help to give Sister Yuanchun in the palace a chance to rise to prominence."
Jia Min frowned and felt very aggrieved.
For the sake of Yuanchun and the Jia family, the mother pretended to be sick to trick Chengyu back.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. "What can you do as a child? Baoyu is older than you. He only eats and plays every day, and now he needs you."
Is it that Chengyu is born to sacrifice her life for the Jia family?
Xue Pan was imprisoned and asked Cheng Yu for help.
Yuanchun also needs Chengyu's help in this matter.
Her son was only this young, but he had to bow his head and curry favor with others for the future of the Jia family and Yuanchun's future.
Jia Min was so angry.
Lin Chengyu knew that she would be angry, but he made it clear so that she would have some idea in mind and would not do anything stupid if anything happened in the future.
"It's not a big deal." Lin Chengyu comforted him, "I just said give it a try. It doesn't matter if it doesn't work."
What's more, according to the original plot, Yuanchun will be crowned as a concubine soon.
Lin Chengyu stayed in the Jia Mansion for one night and was picked up by Xuan Zheng early the next morning.
Seeing this, Grandmother Jia felt that the chances of winning were greater.
In the carriage, Xuan Zheng asked the man to lie down, and he sat beside him and massaged his legs, "Sleep a little longer. Did you not sleep well last night without me massaging you?"
Seeing that he looked like he couldn't sleep without me, Lin Chengyu suppressed her laughter and said, "Yeah, I can't sleep well without you."
After saying this, he felt that the tail behind Xuan Zheng seemed to be leaving an afterimage.
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Xuan Zheng asked: "What did you do when you returned?"
Lin Chengyu said: "I watched a great show."
Xuan Zheng curled his lips, "Does it look good?"
"It looks good." Lin Chengyu's feet were pinched in his hands, like dough, and he kneaded them back and forth. It was a little itchy, and he couldn't help kicking his legs. "It's a play where an old lady pretends to be sick to deceive an innocent little poor girl."
His expression was a little exaggerated, causing Xuan Zheng to laugh out loud.
He asked very cooperatively: "So, did the poor little girl enjoy the show?"
"It's OK."
