Doting on concubines and destroying wives?I am no longer the mistress of Houmen!

Chapter No.16

"I conceived and gave birth to brother Qing in October, and I breastfed him through suffering from hunger and hunger, so that he could read and write."

"My adoptive father is dead, Brother Qing and I depend on each other for our lives, and he is my lifeblood."

"Even if I would rather die myself, I would not be willing to let Brother Qing suffer a little grievance. My heart and soul, I hope he will succeed more than anyone else. Imperial high school."

Lu Zhengliu listened to Ge Baoer's rambling for a long time, and it took a long time to recover from what Lin Yunwan said.

"I know, don't cry."

With a pair of walnut-like eyes, Ge Bao'er choked up and said: "Obviously he is my own son, but I... I look like an outsider."

Lu Zhengliu frowned coldly: "Who said you are an outsider?"

Ge Baoer recalled the scene of their family reunion, feeling sad.

Brother Qing also loves his mother, and he also showed such an appearance at the dinner table.

Lu Zhengliu looked at her and remembered his son, his voice softened: "You are not an outsider. I will let the old lady give you a title."

After speaking, he went immediately.

Mrs. Lu knew that the matter was over, and she hadn't slept yet.

She had a cold face, not knowing where to teach her a lesson.

I really don't know how Ge Baoer is better than Lin Yunwan.

Don't want such a good wife in the first house, but be seduced by a country vixen.

There is no consummation room tonight!

"Bao'er was born in the countryside, so she is short-sighted, but she has a good nature and never has the intention of harming others. What happened today was just because of her grievances as a mother. She didn't intend to provoke you in front of you."

"Grandmother, it took me seven years to find their mother and son. Bao'er could have come back without Brother Qing, but I forced her to return to Lu's house. If it wasn't for Qing's future, she was in the mansion again. I don't have a foothold in the city, and I feel flustered, and there will be nothing like today."

"If you say something wrong, it's all your grandson's fault."

What Lu Zhengliu said was reasonable.

After getting along these days, she can also see that Ge Bao'er doesn't have any deep thoughts, but some small thoughts, although she can't get on the stage, it is still human nature.

Even though she looked down on her, she wasn't about to beat him to death.

After all, she is Brother Qing's biological mother and Lu Zhengliu's sweetheart.

Mrs. Lu's complexion improved a lot, and she said: "I have promised to give her a serious status before, and I will not break my promise. But these things are her own doing, and she can't blame others. Don't excuse her! If you are careful, indulge her ambition, I will not be merciful."

Lu Zhengliu said, "Grandson understands."

The next day.

Lin Yunwan was sorting out accounts in the Cuisi Hall, her bright eyes were cold, she didn't say a word.

A servant woman was standing in the yard waiting for a pair of cards, muttering to herself.

"It's becoming more and more difficult to report the money nowadays. This is an indispensable expense for the old lady. If the lady doesn't allow it, I can only tell the truth when it comes to the old lady."

"Isn't that right, even Lord Hou is short of money..."

Ping Ye stared at them, let out a cold snort and lifted the curtain to enter the room, saying: "Ma'am, those women are here again."

Lin Yunwan raised the pen, scribbled, and gave out two pairs.

When Ping Ye saw her, she almost couldn't get up, and said, "Ma'am..."

Lin Yunwan said indifferently: "Go. I have a way to calm it down."

Ping Ye went reluctantly, and as usual, gave the pair cards and asked them to collect the money.As for whether the expenses were really spent on the master, that's hard to say.

Those women took a pair of cards and left happily.

Pingye spat at their backs.

Tao Ye came over and said: "They are all old servants in the mansion for many years, and they have children for several generations. Many of them are related to people around the old lady. The old lady cherishes her reputation and doesn't want to offend them. And she is the most troublesome several."

Ping Ye sighed: "Can I not know? It's not my fault..."

The two looked at each other, and said nothing more, like a mirror in their hearts.

It's not all the old lady's fault.

Let Lin Yunwan take care of the family, just give orders and give orders, no matter what the details are.If someone from her old man's house committed a crime, or exceeded the limit, they would be sloppy every time.

When something goes wrong, or the account cannot be settled, when is it not for the madam to find a way to solve it?

I want the horse to run again, but I don't buy fodder for the horse.

Lin Yunwan is in a dilemma.

"Ma'am, mother Yan is here."

Ping Ye came over to report.

Lin Yunwan probably guessed what was going on, and went to the Yushou Hall, and she heard the old lady say to her: "Bao'er has been by my side for a while, and she has served me well. I am reluctant to let her go back, and want to keep her here By your side. Yun Wan, what do you think?"

"Cousin Ge seems to be quite old. If the old lady keeps her, why not find a good marriage for her."

Mrs. Lu sighed and said, "You don't know, this child... also has a hard life."

Lin Yunwan raised her eyebrows: "Why is life so hard?"

"My parents died at a young age, and my relatives grew up next to her. Don't think she is so sensible, it's all because she has lived by watching people's winks since she was a child, so she is so well-behaved."

"It's not easy to talk about a good marriage. It's a pharmacy owner. We got married smoothly and lived well. Who knows..."

Lin Yunwan frowned and asked, "What happened afterwards?"

Mrs. Lu said: "The gentleman went out to buy medicinal materials, but he disappeared. Miss Huang Hua, it took several years to delay her. But the marriage has been settled, and the man's family refused to let her marry again. Isn't it just a life of living? Like being a widow? How pitiful do you say."

Lin Yunwan followed her words: "It's really pitiful..."

The encounter they made up for Ge Baoer couldn't even match her pity!

Mrs. Lu's face was moved: "You also think this girl is pitiful! I thought, why not just leave her in my courtyard and give her a monthly allowance, which is not too much, just like the old rules for raising girls in the mansion. enough."

enough?

Lin Yunwan sneered inwardly.

There is a girl in the mansion, five taels a month, rouge powder for a year, clothes for four seasons, gold and silver jewelry, at least four servant girls, and the decoration of the wing room, etc. The money is enough for ordinary people to buy in the suburbs of Beijing. Two into the small house.

That's easy to say!

Lin Yunwan looked embarrassed: "Madam, I took over the accounts of the house from you, and you know..."

Mrs. Lu's face is not pretty either.

Of course she knew that the family background of Marquis Wuding's mansion must be very rich compared to ordinary families.

However, if the mansion wants to maintain the splendor of the past, it has long been unable to make ends meet.

If it weren't for Lin Yunwan's good management in the past few years, it would have been impossible to open a decent ancestral hall for adoptive heirs.

"Yunwan, I entrust the Lu family to you because I trust you."

Lin Yunwan thought for a moment, and said: "There are a few insignificant things that can be saved for my cousin's expenses. But I still have to write it into a booklet, and I ask the old lady to decide."

As long as you can free up money, you will be fine.

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "You just take it."

Lin Yunwan made a booklet.

"It's true, old madam. I want to support my cousin, so why don't I pay money from my treasury? It's causing trouble to our madam."

After reading the booklet in her hand, Ping Ye stared wide-eyed and changed her words: "Husband, madam, why did you include Qiao Da's errand?"

Tao Ye came in with a warm voice, and said: "If Qiao Da's errand is cut off and used to pay for the cousin girl, I'm afraid he will fall into trouble."

Lin Yunwan said flatly, "Send it."

Ping Ye said with a smile: "Young maidservant, let's go!"
