Cheng Qi scolded his sister, his face looked unhappy, and he strode forward gloomily.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"Brother, please slow down and wait for me."
Lu Lingjun looked at the two of them and raised his eyebrows, silently taking this into account.
Qin Shaojing's participation in the draft was a big deal.
On the same day, after Qin Shaojing took people back to her east courtyard, Mrs. Qin called Lu Lingyun to discuss it carefully with her.
"Shaojing's talent show is a big deal. I'll ask the housekeeper to take out all the jewelry boxes and fabric boxes from our house later and customize a batch of brand new good materials. You can choose them for Shaojing."
"yes."
"Buy whatever you need. Let's not save money on this."
"yes."
"Everything is focused on the important matter of Shaojing's draft. If she can join the royal family, it will be a great blessing for our Hou family!"
"yes."
Lu Lingjun nodded and responded one by one.
Seeing that she was so sensible, Mrs. Qin's eyes couldn't help softening. She called Lu Lingyun to her, grabbed Lu Lingyun's hand and said, "Lingyun, I saw what you did to Shao Jing before. You, my sister-in-law, did an excellent job. "
"Don't worry, mother won't treat you badly. You can handle this draft for Shao Jing well. You will be responsible for everything. Any leftovers will be kept in your room. During this time, you will worry about the Hou Mansion. ”
When Lu Lingjun heard this, his heart brightened.
This was telling her that Qin Shaojing was not responsible for organizing the talent show this time.
It's for her hair!
The Hou Mansion took out all the supplies from the treasury and bought them as long as they had enough money. When the time comes, all the extra things will be given to Lu Lingyun!
You must know that the accounts of the Hou Mansion are public accounts. Even if the Hou Mansion has few masters, these public accounts cannot be misappropriated easily.
Lu Lingjun was in charge of the accounts, and every entry and exit had to be registered. Of course, if she wanted to make money, she could do something trick every time.
But that's just some petty profit, and as time goes by, no one can see it.
Who doesn’t know?
Mrs. Qin gave Lu Lingjun the power to handle this big event and told her to do her best and not treat her badly at all.
After taking over and delegating power, there will be a lot of things purchased by then, and Lu Lingjun will keep them all for himself.
She has always had this style of doing things. As long as Qin's people are capable and capable, she will not miss out on their benefits at all.
Lu Lingjun likes this kind of mother-in-law!
"Don't worry, mother, I will definitely handle this matter well."
When he returned that day, Lu Lingyun called all the housekeepers at home to him.
They were asked to take out all the items in the house, ranging from needles and threads to jade treasures.
Then there are the jewelry materials sold in the industrial shop outside the Hou Mansion. All the latest and best models are delivered to the house.
Finally, there was shopping all over the capital.
Buy all the current fashionable items and send them back to your house.
Lu Lingjun also really felt the wealth of the Hou Mansion this time.
In less than three days, ten boxes of jewelry and jade were carried to Lu Lingyun's yard.
According to the style and material, there is one box of pearl hairpins and hair accessories, one box each of gold and silver jewelry, one box each of red, yellow and blue common gemstone hairpins, one box of pink and other rare color gemstone hairpins, and jade. One box of hairpin and face jewelry, one box of ordinary jade jewelry, and one box of high-grade jade jewelry.
Mrs. Qin sent another box of rare jewelry alone.
In addition, Qingyun yarn, soft smoke silk, colorful satin, flowing satin, Yun brocade, Song brocade, Zhuang brocade, Shu brocade... all kinds of silk and satin were placed in front of Lu Lingjun in batches according to texture and color.
This time, the Hou Mansion spent a lot of money for Qin Shaojing, but these things still couldn't hurt the Hou Mansion's bones.
Three generations of people in the Hou family have accumulated a deep foundation, especially after the Qin family took charge of the family. When she got married, she brought a dowry worth one million taels from the Duke of Guo's family. The Qin family is good at business and has a pretty solid family background, but she is the owner of the Duke of Guo's family. Young ladies who came out of the heyday were not willing to show off their wealth. The old Marquis was also down-to-earth and low-key, and usually encouraged everyone to be diligent and thrifty.
Only in important matters can one show off their strong family wealth.
Lu Lingjun had been married to the Hou Mansion for more than a year, and she didn't think much of it when looking at the accounts. Only when Qin took action did she really feel the difference between the noble family and the ordinary family, and the extremely wealthy family.
She had everything ready, so she invited Qin Shaojing to choose together.
Qin Shaojing's eyes were startled when he saw the dazzling array of things.
Obviously she also felt the background of the Hou Mansion.
She didn't expect her aunt's family to be so powerful.
If it were the Duke's Mansion in its heyday, she would naturally not think anything of it, but as soon as she was born, the Duke's Mansion was on the decline. The older it got, the poorer the Duke's Mansion became. The first time she came to the Hou's Mansion, she felt that the Hou's Mansion was better than her. The family must be a little stronger, and now that this dazzling array of things is in front of her, she has made a new calculation about Ningyang Hou Mansion.
This Ningyang Houfu is far more powerful than she thought!
No wonder the Marquis of Ningyang tacitly allowed Cheng Yunshuo to ruin his family and did not seek Cheng Yunshuo's advancement.
"Shaojing, your draft is a big deal. I already asked people to make clothes for you with the materials last time. Let's choose some more and hurry up." Lu Lingyun said.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Qin Shaojing smiled and started picking out the hairpins and jewelry in front of her.
In one afternoon, she picked out three boxes of jewelry and about twenty pieces of materials. Because Qin Shaojing was known for being picky, even if she wanted to get some more, she had to keep her reputation and couldn't get the rest. .
In this way, the rest all belong to Lu Lingjun.
Lu Lingjun sent the materials chosen by Qin Shaojing to the embroiderers, who worked overtime to make them, just waiting to make about ten sets of clothes before the draft.
The aunt and sister-in-law were talking and laughing, and Qin Shaojing's usual secretive thoughts were gone.
In the evening, Qin Shaojing stayed at the Hou Mansion to have dinner. During the dinner, they all said good things about Lu Lingyun.
After hearing this, Mrs. Qin had a smile on her face and nodded repeatedly.
She entrusted this kind of thing to Lu Lingyun to make friends with them. Mrs. Qin was a sensible person. She knew that Lu Lingyun was the future of the Hou family. Her mother-in-law would always grow old one day, and her son was also a If you don't do anything, at that time, it will be up to Lu Lingjun to support the family.
She intended for Lu Lingyun to become friends with Qin Shaojing, which would be helpful to both the Qin family and the Cheng family.
What she sees is the future of the two families, and the long-term prosperity of the family is her lifelong pursuit.
People were talking and laughing at the banquet here, and on the other side of the back house.
"Master hasn't come for several days."
Du Ruo frowned and paced in Xiaohe Courtyard.
Since the last quarrel, Cheng Yunshuo has not been in her yard for several days.
The more she waited, the more anxious she became, and finally she couldn't wait any longer, "Xiaoqin, go and tell the prince that I am sick today."
