Huai Su said: "I don't like her either, but the Marquis likes her."
She had been serving Jiang Xingjian since she was a child and knew a lot about him. She didn't believe that Jiang Xingjian would like someone like Lin Jiayue, but now he was fascinated by her. Huaisu always felt that there was something strange in it.
"I guess Auntie Lin used some charming tricks to bewitch the Marquis and made him forget about the grandma that he misses so much."
"You also know how much trouble Aunt Lin has caused for the house since she entered the house. Continuing to stay with the Marquis will only bring trouble to the Marquis."
Huai Su took off his hair and put the hairpin in his makeup box.
Her makeup box was scattered and contained few valuable items. Previously, I got a lot of rewards for serving in the old lady's room, but after being given to Jiang Xingjian by the old lady Jiang, my hand became much tighter.
During the six years that Jiang Xingjian was away, there was no difference between her and Song Wan. It was just that one was a widow openly and the other was a widow secretly.
Recently, I have been playing cards with Jiang's mother and Lin Jiayue every day, and I have lost a lot of money. Now I am stretched.
Shi Zhu was puzzled: "My sister also knows that Aunt Lin has brought trouble to the master, why do she still support her to take charge of the family?"
"I don't support her, I believe in grandma."
Huai Su locked up the makeup box and said softly: "You grew up in the house. Although you didn't have much contact with grandma, we were all in the same courtyard at first. What kind of person do you think grandma is?"
"Grandma is smart and has a good temper. I used to think that Grandma is the kindest and kindest person in the world."
"You're right."
Huaisu's tone was slightly low: "Grandma is indeed a very smart person, so how could she allow a stupid person like Aunt Lin to jump around in the Marquis's house and try to get her hands on the middle class?"
"But since she did this, it means that the eldest grandma has her own plans in mind."
"What's the deal?"
Huai Su said: "Let's kill him."
"Let her take power, manage the family, and do some earth-shattering things, and this person will be driven out of the house. If not, Aunt Lin will rely on the power of the empress and the favor of the Marquis. I don’t know how long it will be rampant.”
"No wonder, I also find it strange, the eldest grandma is a girl from the Song family, how could Aunt Lin take advantage of her?"
Shi Zhu lowered her voice: "I understand when my sister says it like this."
"The Marquis has adhered to the principles of a gentleman since he was a child. After meeting Aunt Lin, he had an affair with her without a matchmaker, which ruined his reputation. Such a person must not stay in the mansion."
Huai Su sat on the couch, hugging the soft pillow and murmured: "Only a fairy-like figure like the eldest grandma can be worthy of the Marquis, and who is Aunt Lin? The Marquis can only have love and affection with the eldest grandma. , in order to get help from the Song Mansion, otherwise if the marriage fails in the future because Aunt Lin falls into the Song Mansion and complains, it will be detrimental to the future of the Marquis."
"So I have to think of a way to get Grandma to do it as soon as possible so that I can drive out the thing that is disturbing the family."
Shi Zhu held Huai Su's hand and couldn't help but nod: "Sister is right, but is there anything that sister can help with?"
"There is indeed one."
Huaisu whispered a few words in her ear, and then the two of them went to take off their makeup and hair and get ready for bed.
At noon on the second day, Huaisu went to look for Lin Jiayue with a mahogany box in his arms.
"Aunt Lin..."
"What do you want from me?"
Although she and Huai Su lived in the same courtyard, they did not have much friendship on weekdays. Lin Jiayue was also quite surprised as to why she came to her door today.
"There is something wrong."
Huai Su's face turned red: "I know that Aunt Lin has a good way of making money, and she has many ways to do it, so I was wondering if I could help her and help me earn one or two taels of silver to help me make money."
Pushing the mahogany box in front of Lin Jiayue, Huai Su continued: "These are the capital in my hand. Although it is a little thin, it is most of my wealth."
"Have you lost a lot lately?"
Lin Jiayue couldn't help but feel a little sorry when she thought that she had tried various methods to make Jiang's mother happy these days, which also caused Huaisu to lose a lot of money.
After thinking about it, she dug out a purse from under her pillow, grabbed a handful of golden beans and put them on the table.
"You take these, I don't want any more."
Huai Su pushed her gently: "I can't ask for Aunt Lin's things for no reason."
"If you don't have any money, why don't you just give me some money? Why push it back and forth?"
After saying that, Lin Jiayue grabbed the golden beans on the table and forced them to Huai Su.
Huai Su was a little embarrassed and sighed softly: "In this case, I won't be polite to Aunt Lin. My money is really tight."
"I know. In the morning, Qinghong saw the little girl next to you secretly looking for her mother-in-law, saying she wanted to pawn something."
Seeing that Huai Su was a little embarrassed, Lin Jiayue smiled generously: "We all live in the same courtyard. If you have any difficulties, just ask. There is no need to hide it."
"It's very embarrassing to have to receive help from Aunt Lin. I have nothing else to worry about."
Huai Su was gentle and gentle, and paused for a moment after saying this: "Aunt Lin has a cheerful temperament and is a tolerant person. But being tolerant in the Marquis Mansion has the advantage of being tolerant, but sometimes you have to suffer the disadvantages of being tolerant."
"That's the truth."
Understanding that Huaisu didn't want to owe her any favors and didn't know what to say to her, Lin Jiayue lay on the table and made a gesture of listening.
"Madam attaches great importance to Aunt Lin, but she is usually free and uninhibited in her behavior, which makes Madam worried. If Aunt Lin can be more stable, she will definitely have great fortunes in the future."
"I wonder what you mean by this unruly behavior?"
Huai Su smiled softly and said, "Grandma is a model for how a woman should treat others. No matter who she treats, she is never far away or close, nor distant or close. In the past, we servants could never tell who won her heart and who displeased her. If things go on like this, the servants won't be able to figure out her temperament, so they won't dare to make trouble in front of her."
"If you count it carefully, the master of the Hou Mansion only has dozens of descendants, but there are thousands of servants. Therefore, sometimes it is better to offend the master than to offend the servants."
Lin Jiayue frowned: "When did I offend my servant?"
Huaisu pursed his lips, and then asked a little girl in the courtyard to go to the miscellaneous room to ask for something. When the little girl came back, Huaisu said in a gentle tone: "Why don't you go and sit under the door? I'll let Shizhu make a bowl of tea." For you to eat."
The little maid replied with a smile: "I don't want to eat. My mother Xingzao came to see her in the front yard and brought some sour cakes. I want to eat one."
"I'm sorry for you, I missed your sisters' happy reunion."
Taking out a small corner of broken silver from his sleeve, Huaisu said with a smile: "Take it to buy some cakes with the little sisters, let's have fun together."
Lin Jiayue saw the little maid's expression of reluctance before running errands to the joy now, her brows furrowed slightly.
Seeing this, Huai Su said: "There is also a saying in the body. Words of sympathy, tea and wine, and gold and silver rewards are all indispensable. Only in this way can we grasp the hearts of Aunt Lin and make them use them."
Lin Jiayue originally wanted to say that she was just asking her servants to run errands, and it wouldn't be such a troublesome thing. But in a daze, she suddenly thought that Song Wan was like this. He often heard her or the maids around her talking to those women and girls. They say drinking wine, buying sweets, or buying some fruits and pastries.
Seeing that she had taken it to heart, Huaisu pursed his lips and retreated.
Lin Jiayue lay on the table and thought for a long time. She called Qianbi and asked, "How do you think I treat you?"
"I feel that there is no better master than my aunt."
She heard what Huaisu said just now, thought about it and Qianbi said, "But sister Huaisu is right, the other masters in the mansion treat us like this, and the Marquis Mansion treats us very kindly and kindly."
"I think Sister Huaisu is also kind-hearted, so I can mention my aunt."
Lin Jiayue snorted and said, "What she said was reasonable but not necessarily because of her good intentions. I think it was more like asking me to take over the power in the government early and focus on dealing with Song Wan."
"I'm done with this trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife and letting her take advantage of it."
