The Lin family has a female named Qingyun [Red Mansion]

Waking up early this day, Lin Qingyun had just gotten up to wash up, when Zijuan came in holding a wooden tray.

"Greetings to the eldest girl. Today is the first month of the month, and the eldest lady specially ordered me to send monthly money to the eldest girl's room. All follow the old rules. The four are first-class egrets, acacias, larks, and thrushes. Each person has a penny. Taoxiang, He Xiang, Chrysanthemum Xiang, and Mei Xiang are second-class, five hundred dollars each. When the girl was at home, she used to pay five taels a month, so I brought five taels to the eldest girl." Zijuan said and put the tray on the table.

Lin Qingyun's eyes moved slightly, sighed in his heart, and nodded calmly on his face, "Please run for a while, I think my sister is busy today, so I won't bother you."

"Yes." Zijuan was blessed and left.

Qingyun asked Bailu to accept the monthly money sent by her, and once again sighed with emotion for Daiyu's exquisite heart.

She remembered that the ladies of Jia's mansion paid two taels a month, and Daiyu must have known that after living there, so it could be seen that five taels a month for her family was too high.Daiyu is not only the only eldest daughter of the Lin family, but the possibility of having any more children has been eliminated in the Lin family. Also, she has been sick since she was a child, and her parents love her more and more. Let alone five or two months a month, she is afraid that if she has money, she will spend it all.The reason why Daiyu set the five taels was intentional. Qingyun took care of the Lin family and was penniless. If the monthly money is too little to spend, I am afraid that I will not open my mouth to ask for it. It is better to give it directly, and it is justified and will not make people feel almsgiving.

After breakfast, Qingyun started sewing.

In the memory of the original owner, she knew how to do needlework. Generally, daughters from Jiangnan are good at embroidery, but now, although they inherited the memory and know how to embroider, it is not so easy to make needles.As the saying goes, what comes is safe, the ancients had a lot of demands on women, female red is inevitable, not to mention the skill does not overwhelm the body, the body is still young now, and it will make up for it after a few years of hard work.

I don't know when I suddenly heard a noise outside the courtyard, and asked without raising my head: "Bai Lu, what's the matter?"

Bailu came back after going out for a while, with a rather puzzled face on his face: "The two wives started fighting in public, Miss Lin over there called to ask questions, and the two of them actually clung to Mrs. Xian, the girl said it was ridiculous Not ridiculous."

Qingyun frowned, and went there as soon as she put the needle and thread aside, for fear that Daiyu would be angry.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he felt that something was wrong, and the whole courtyard was silent. There were two women kneeling in the courtyard, begging for mercy, and Daiyu stood at the door, with a cold face and anger in his eyes.

She was clearly just a nine-year-old girl, although she was already very angry, she still held back her anger, because she understood the situation very well, she was no longer the Miss Jiao under the care of her parents, and now she was in charge of the house and she had to be calm Only then can she stand firm, if she doesn't do well at all, it's easy for others to talk about her, and I'm afraid they will talk about her parents' poor upbringing like these two women.When the mother was alive, she had already suffered enough for her children, how could she be allowed to be talked about behind her back.

Qingyun stopped in her tracks, feeling that Daiyu was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, although such things would be sad, they might not be handled well.

Sure enough, Daiyu said: "You two should be punished for eating wine when you are on business, but now you are talking about the dead mistress in front of me, how arrogant. Come, beat the two of them twenty times each." The big board kicked out and never hired."

These words are simple but full of wind and thunder, and there is really an air of mastery that makes people dare not look directly at them.

And when it came to "throwing out and never being hired", the two women were already crying and begging.You are not afraid of being punished by the board, and never being hired is tantamount to ruining your life's future.They are all old slaves of the Lin family, and they can only serve the Lin family, but now that the Lin family is no longer needed, it means that the monthly silver rice has no money, even if they are not starved to death, what hope is there in this life?

It can be seen that Daiyu is very annoyed.

Mrs. Xu rushed over after hearing the news, but like Qingyun, she didn't intervene. Seeing Daiyu's handling now, she couldn't help but nodded in satisfaction.While ordering everyone to disperse, he sighed with Qingyun: "I used to think that the girl was weak and soft-tempered, but who knew that she was wrong. After all, it was Madam who taught her well, and she seems to have seen Madam in a daze."

Daiyu is not soft-tempered, but kind-hearted, does not hold grudges, and does not want to speculate on others with malice.In the past, she could be a girl in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but when necessary, she can also take on the responsibility of managing the housekeeper. Moreover, she is well-versed in literature and ink, and has a quick mind. She is probably no worse than the hero Wang Xifeng in the makeup pile. .

"Sister Qingyun is here." Daiyu saw her, her expression calmed down.

"Aren't you tired after standing outside for half a day? Go in and have a rest." Qingyun didn't mention what happened just now, and walked into the room with her hand.

But Daiyu said: "I knew that the housework was complicated, and I didn't really understand it until I took care of it myself. My mother can take care of it properly while she is alive, but I am not as good."

Qingyun said with a smile: "What are you compared to your adoptive mother? You are still young. When you get married in the future, you will naturally be able to do well."

Daiyu was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red, and she ran up to beat her relentlessly, "I thought you were a decent person, but you actually said these things to make fun of me, just like the second sister-in-law Lian."

"What's wrong with what I said? Could it be that you won't marry in the future?" Qingyun deliberately played with her for a while, and then stopped when she saw her panting slightly: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't have said such nonsense .Sister, there are a lot of adults, please forgive me once."

Daiyu snorted softly, turned around and sat on the side to look through the account books, and said, "In that case, I will spare you."

"I knew my sister was not a stingy person."

Unexpectedly, it was just this ordinary sentence, but Daiyu was in a daze, and then tears rolled down suddenly.

Qingyun was surprised: "Sister, what's wrong? Why are you crying so hard? But did my words offend you?"

Daiyu shook her head, just cried and didn't speak.

At this time, fortunately, there was Zijuan, who had served her for several years. Zijuan knew Daiyu best, but there was nothing she didn't understand about every look and movement.Seeing her bursting into tears right now, after a little thought, she knew why.

"Don't misunderstand, big girl, it has nothing to do with big girl." Zijuan comforted Qingyun first, and then said to Daiyu in a funny way: "Miss is crying again, it scares big girl. I know that girl feels wronged, so I pick up the bag The villain is the most gossip, what is the identity of the girl, it is really unreasonable to be angry about this. Besides, the sisters all know that the girl is a person, why have they ever talked about the girl? Now the girl has returned to her own home, she is in charge of the house, and there is a big girl as a companion , how at ease, thinking about what to do with those little things in the past, wouldn't it make the master and the eldest girl worry?"

Daiyu stopped crying, and gave Zijuan a reproachful look, but couldn't stop laughing.Realizing that Qingyun was watching from the side, her face blushed again, she was very embarrassed: "I let my sister read a joke. It's because my sister is ignorant. I said I would never cry again, but I couldn't hold it back."

Qingyun also understood at this time, it must be the people from the Jia family who were gossiping, Daiyu was delicate and sensitive, and often shed tears because of it.Perhaps someone in Jia's family talked about Daiyu's temperament, and her words made Daiyu feel sad.Calculating the time, the Xue family has not yet entered the capital, and although Mrs. Wang does not like Daiyu because of Jia Min, she does not want to have a fight with Jia Mu so early. I am afraid that she and the Xue family have confirmed the golden and jade marriage through letters. This is the first to pave the way for the Xue family.

After all, Mrs. Wang is the mistress of the house, without her, how would the servants dare to talk about the granddaughter whom Jia Mu attaches great importance to and loves?

"Who can stop crying for a lifetime? Just don't cry too much, it's easy to hurt your body." Qingyun deliberately changed the topic, but whenever Jia's family was mentioned, she would cry six or seven times out of ten. No wonder later generations said Daiyu Backlash against the Jia family.Qingyun usually has the intention to guide, and now that the situation is not in the original book, Daiyu is quite cheerful, and the little girl occasionally makes Qingjun laugh so hard that her stomach hurts.

"Sister, don't worry, I've improved a lot now." Daiyu took out a gift list and handed it to her: "I was just about to ask the girl to send it to you. This is a gift from the Zhang family in Jinling. It's just for you. Yes, I'll ask someone to take it to you later."

Since coming to the Lin family, the Zhang family will send some things every one or two months, not expensive, but very considerate.In the past, Qingyun used to do the needlework by herself, and it was all for the Zhang family and some festive things, but it was the Lin family who helped prepare it.

"I've just finished a forehead wipe, and I plan to send it to Mrs. Zhang." Counting the money on hand, Qingyun also has 30 taels. Except for today's monthly money, the rest are stuffed by Mrs. Zhang in her bag when she first came. Just in time to buy something else.

"Sister Qingyun, don't be too busy. Daddy said that the gift from the Zhang family will be delivered a few days later."

"Why is this?"

"Could it be that my sister forgot that the palace examination is now in May, and it won't be long before the list will be published. Dad said that with the skill of the third son of the Zhang family, as long as there are no accidents, he will definitely be on the list. When the mansion reports the result, we will give gifts together." Go congratulate."

"Exactly, I forgot." In fact, there is not much difference. After all, she is a girl's family, and what she gave was a heartfelt gift. The one who really wants to give a big gift is the Lin family.

Now that Lin Ruhai asked Daiyu to be the housekeeper, Daiyu naturally drew up the gift list, so Daiyu looked through the gift book.

With nothing else to do, Qingyun flipped through a store's entry and exit accounts.Although the store's account books were delivered, they were not in the care of Daiyu, but were taken care of by shopkeepers outside.The Lin family shop mostly deals in silks and satins, hairpins and incense powder, and earns a good income. Although the income of the farm is not as good, it increases every year, and a sum of money will be spent from it to add sacrifice fields, repair the ancestral hall, and donate it to the Lin family's family school.

Although Qingyun has no worries about food and clothing in the Lin family, and the Lin family's father and daughter treat each other sincerely, she is not dissatisfied.It's just that she is not an ancient person after all, she is used to earning her own living, and now the Lin family provides for every straw, paper, and food, and even the Lin family will plan for the future, which really makes her feel panicked.It's not so much "no reward for no merit", it's more a psychological reason, what would she do without the Lin family?If you can make money by yourself, it seems that you will have the confidence.

The dilemma she faced was that as a woman, she could not show her face, had no money, and no connections.

Now, although she is Lin Ruhai's adopted daughter, she is still adhering to the teachings of the scholar, and she must not do business by herself, otherwise, once it is spread, it will put the Lin family in danger.She has no one in her hands and can only rely on the Lin family, but how to persuade Lin Ruhai to agree is a difficult problem.
