Miss Lin Family of the Red Chamber

Jia Min is a noble and talented person, he doesn't care too much about money and has no greed, and naturally he didn't move the things from Lin's warehouse into his own warehouse like Jia Shishi and Mrs. Wang did.Even so, apart from her dowry, there are quite a lot of valuable things in Jia Min's private treasury. Apart from the gift from Lin Ruhai that Mrs. Lin usually rewards, these things come from gifts and filial piety from the people below.

The things Mrs. Lin bestows on her daughter-in-law are naturally good. Lin Ruhai has been brought up by a family since he was a child, and things that are not excellent will not catch his eyes. The ones that are not good will not be sent up. These things alone are of great value.

Of course, apart from these valuable items, what surprised Meng Yan and the others was that they actually paid off the defective and imitation products. It was incredible that a family like the Lin family had such things; Only then did I realize that it was a gift from Jia’s mansion in the capital city in the past, and I was so shocked that Steward Lin and Nanny Lin’s eyes dropped. Their former wife, Mrs. Jia, said that the gift from the Rongguo Mansion, which was said to be rich and powerful, was fake and fake. .

"Miss, what should I do with these things?"

Seeing the piles of defective and imitations that had been cleared out, Steward Lin didn't dare to deal with it without authorization, so he asked Meng Yan for instructions.

Butler Lin didn't expect things to turn out like this. In the eyes of Butler Lin and others, Jia Min was always aloof and arrogant. He never thought that such things would not be found in Jia Min's private treasury.

"No matter what, these things used to belong to Mrs. Jia, and now they belong to Sister Yu'er. How to deal with them will be decided by my sister. Please trouble housekeeper Lin to have these things sealed up for a certain period of time."

"Yes, Miss."

Butler Lin took out a thick stack of gift slips and asked people to classify the items and seal them by date. When Meng Yan checked the gift slips, she found out that the counterfeit and defective products were only delivered three years after Jia Min married into the Lin family. Meng Yan thought to herself that Mrs. Wang had begun to take over the power of housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion three years after Jia Min got married.

It seems that Mrs. Wang's disagreement with Jia Min is not a rumor but a real thing.Meng Yan felt that she could completely understand this. Mrs. Wang was born in the Wang family, a general who emphasizes women's virtue without talent. A proficient and talented girl, the noble Jia Min naturally looks down on the illiterate sister-in-law, plus Jia Min is conceited and arrogant, who knows what kind of dirty things happened between her and Mrs. Wang.

If Mrs. Wang didn't hate Jia Min so much, how could Mrs. Wang dislike Sister Lin and embarrass Sister Lin later.

Thinking far away, Meng Yan rubbed her forehead.

"Miss, everything has been counted and packaged."

"What about the inside of the house, is it also sealed?"

"Everything that can be sealed is sealed."

"Mom, follow me in and have a look."

Meng Yan took Nanny Lin into Jia Min's former bedroom. At this time, there was no luxury decoration like when Jia Min was there, those exquisite antique porcelains, those exquisite and expensive wooden, jade, gold and silver ornaments, those Exquisite embroidery, those luxurious yet elegant silk satins, those curtains made of pearls, those purple and gold incense burners used for incense... everything has been put away, and now the red sandalwood The extravagantly crafted Babu bed has not been disassembled.

The whole room was empty. It was Meng Yan's intention to empty the whole room. She wanted to get rid of everything related to Jia Min. If she couldn't get rid of it, she would seal it up. At least she wouldn't show up until Daiyu got married.

"Miss, they are coming in to move things, let's go out first."

"This bed will not be taken apart." Meng Yan looked at the bed and asked, but no one noticed that Meng Yan had moved under his sleeves.

"If it needs to be dismantled, they are waiting to come in and dismantle the bed."

"What's that?" Meng Yan asked, pointing to a looming object inside Ba Bu's bed.

"What is it?" Nanny Lin looked in the direction Meng Yan pointed, and sure enough, she saw a place on the inside that seemed to be a secret pavilion opened up slightly: "Miss, this old servant will go and have a look."

Nanny Lin walked over and groped for a while, then quickly opened the dark cabinet, and took out a small wooden box from the dark cabinet, and she carried the box out.

"Miss, it's a box."

Meng Yan looked at the box and frowned: "This, is it something precious?" After speaking, she looked up at Nanny Lin.

"Miss, the old slave opened it and took a look."

"Ah."

The grandma let Hongxiao hold the box. She opened the box carefully for fear of damaging the contents. Meng Yan also stretched her neck with an expression of wanting to see what was inside.When Nanny Lin opened the box, the first thing she saw was a box full of small bottles. When she saw the small red note on the bottle, Nanny Lin's expression suddenly changed. She snapped the lid on and put the He grabbed the box and held it in his arms.

"What's the matter with Mammy? I haven't seen clearly what's inside yet?" Meng Yan looked at Mammy Lin with a puzzled look on her face.

"Miss," Nanny Lin looked puzzled, how should she tell her, this matter is so serious that she can only offend her: "Miss, the things here are not suitable for children to read, this old slave wants to take these Give the things to the master, please forgive me, the old slave must go to see the master first."

Nanny Lin hugged the box and left quickly without waiting for Meng Yan to speak.

"Miss, look at how Nanny Lin can do this, she..." I don't need you to pay attention to her.

"Okay, maybe it's not a good thing, Lin Nanny is doing it for my own good." Meng Yan interrupted Hongxiao, who is Lin Nanny, she can't let Hongxiao's sharp mouth offend Lin Nanny.Hongxiao didn't notice that a meaningful smile flashed across the corner of Meng Yan's mouth when she watched Nanny Lin leave.

"Let's go, let's go out, they are going to come in and tear down the bed, let's not get in the way here."

Nanny Lin carried the box tremblingly all the way to the front yard, her complexion was extremely bad, and the servants in the mansion didn't even dare to say hello and avoid her when they saw her like that.

In the study, Lin Ruhai was also furious. It turned out that Lin Ruhai was checking the account book that Meng Yan had sent before, and he was really shocked if he didn't read it.He didn't know that the servants in his mansion were so bold that they would deceive and betray the master.

According to the book, the price purchased in the mansion is more than ten or twenty times that of the outside, and the harvest on the Zhuangzi is actually two-thirds less than the actual harvest... This means that most of the money in the Lin Mansion is greedy by those slaves. gone.

"Do these slaves think that my master is a fool!" He picked up the cup of tea and wanted to drink it, only to realize that there was no more tea in the cup, and he didn't ask anyone to come in for more tea. His anger grew stronger.

Meng Yan's account book is very detailed, and Lin Ruhai can quickly find out when and who has corrupted how much, which makes Lin Ruhai quickly discover that the corruption of this slave only appeared after Jia Min's housekeeper.Although Mrs. Lin also had housekeepers before, the situation was not serious. Even if the housekeepers who bought them were greedy, it didn't mean that the original price had risen a level or two. However, since Jia Min became the housekeeper, the slavery's corruption has become more and more serious.Moreover, these servants were promoted after Jia Min's housekeeper. Most of them were Jia Min's companions or were related to Jia Min's dowry. Fewer and fewer.

What does this mean? It means that it is not good for the servants Jia Min brought from Jia's house to be unclean. It also shows that Jia Min has been indulging the servants she brought. It also shows that he was deceived by Jia's house and Jia Min from the very beginning. .

This realization undoubtedly slapped Jia Min hard on Lin Ruhai, who has always consciously felt deep affection for Jia Min, and even slapped him for repeatedly contradicting his biological mother's wishes. This is undoubtedly a huge insult to Lin Ruhai, who has an arrogant personality. .

What makes Lin Ruhai even more annoyed and angry is that he has cleared and sent everyone to Zhuangzi except the head of the Zhuangzi. They have also taken away their embezzled money. These corrupt slaves no longer receive their original errands. , wanting to deal with them is afraid that it will cause a lot of commotion.There are quite a few people staring at him now, once these slaves are dealt with, they are afraid that bad things will happen to those who stare at him.

However, if these slaves were not dealt with, Lin Ruhai would always feel a bad breath in his heart. If they were allowed to continue to enjoy a peaceful life under the protection of the Lin Mansion, they would embezzle the money of the Lin Manor.

Lin Ruhai was thinking about how to deal with this matter. Originally, this was the internal affairs that should belong to the Meng family, but the Meng family is now pregnant with his son, and the surrogate's daughter is too young, and he doesn't want the young daughter to be taken care of so early. In contact with these things, he can only deal with them by himself.

"Master, this old slave has something to ask to see." Lin Ruhai's thoughts were interrupted suddenly by Nurse Lin's voice from outside the door.

"Come in, mother." Lin Ruhai, who was suffering from a headache, gathered up the ledger and planned to put it aside for now.

"Mother, why are you here? Didn't you ask Yan'er to help Yan'er count Lin Fang Yuan?"

Meng Yan had made preparations with Lin Rubao before counting Lin Fangyuan, and it should not be finished so quickly after calculation.Lin Ruhai saw the things in Nanny Lin's arms and asked again without waiting for Nanny Lin to answer.

"What is this?"

"Master, this slave came here because of this thing. This box was found in the dark cabinet of Babu Bed in Linfangyuan. Please take a look, Master." Nanny Lin put the box on the desk and opened it. .

Lin Ruhai looked into the box curiously. Mother Lin took out a bottle for Lin Ruhai to look at. Lin Ruhai pointed to the words on the bottle in astonishment: "This is... this, mother, you were at Jia's in Linfangyuan just now. Found it in the room?"

Lin Ruhai pointed at the box with a look of disbelief.

"My lord, I found it in the dark pavilion of Babu Bed in Linfangyuan."

"This, how is this possible..."

Lin Ruhai slumped back to the chair as if he had suffered a huge blow.The babu bed in Linfangyuan was made after Jia Min moved into this mansion. A famous carpenter in Yangzhou city was invited to order the babu bed. This thing came from the dark pavilion of the babu bed. If it is found, it means that these harmful things belong to Jia Min.

However, it's impossible, maybe these things...

"Mommy, go and ask Dr. Li to come over."
