Chapter 30 Envy

Old Mrs. Lin's insomnia symptoms recurred. She remembered that she had a good sleep after meeting Lin Qianqian last time, so she decided to go to Jiang's house again.

The old lady considered it for a long time and was extremely reluctant, but she still took the indentures of Mrs. Wu's family to the Jiang residence.

As soon as he saw Lin Qianqian, he said affectionately: "Qianqian girl, you are my own granddaughter, I don't feel bad about giving you these indentures."

Although he said he didn't feel bad, he held the contract even tighter in his hand.

She clasped her hands together and clenched them tightly. The seven people in Mrs. Wu's family were worth a hundred taels of silver.

Lin Qianqian: My mother’s dowry is still in the hands of the old lady. I have accepted the indentures of Mrs. Wu’s family first, and I have to take the dowry back in the future. I can’t let the old lady get it for free.

The old lady in front of her was a ruthless person. When she was born, she asked the midwife to drown her in a basin of water.

The scumbag father Lin Qingyun thought that the death in the house was unlucky, so he asked Mrs. Wu to throw her into a mass grave in the snow. It was because of Mrs. Wu's kindness that she survived.

This time, Lin Qianqian directly gave Old Lady Lin a heavy dose of sleeping tea, solving the problem in one step, so that Old Lady Lin wouldn't come to bother her all the time.

After drinking a cup of tea, Mrs. Lin felt groggy and about to fall asleep.

For people who suffer from insomnia for a long time, this drowsy feeling is really wonderful.

Even when the old lady was confused, she did not forget to sigh: This girl Qianqian is really a lucky star. Seeing her once can make people fall asleep peacefully.

I have consulted countless doctors before, but none of them could cure my insomnia.

"Old lady, give me the indenture agreement we agreed on in advance."

"Qianqian, you don't want to call me grandma. I don't blame you. I didn't do well enough in the past. Sooner or later, you will call me grandma."

Although Mrs. Lin was drowsy and wanted to sleep, she was reluctant to part with the indenture contract in her hand.

"Old lady, one hundred taels is not a small amount, but ordinary people need to spend at least a thousand taels to see me. And you only spent one hundred taels to see me twice. There is no better deal than this."

Old Mrs. Lin thought about it and realized that this was the case, so she let go of her hand.

When I woke up the next morning, it was too late to regret.

The old lady was so angry that she almost broke her thigh. "Seven indentures, more than ten taels of silver each, worth more than a hundred taels of silver."

The maid Xiao Xing couldn't believe that someone could actually pluck the feathers from the stingy old lady, "Old lady, could it be that Miss Qianqian had drugged you to confuse your mind and make you obey her?"

Old Mrs. Lin just cried while holding the box containing the indentures. There were dozens of indentures in the box, and she was determined not to give them to anyone again.

The people in this house are sad, while those who are leaving the house are very happy.

Mrs. Wu carried a tattered bundle and walked out of the gate of the Lin residence with her head held high.

She looked up at the east. The sun was bright red, and suddenly she felt that life was full of hope.

Outside, Ada had come to pick them up in a carriage. Hongdou jumped out of the carriage and went forward to support Mrs. Wu.

"Granny Wu, you are my daughter's savior. My daughter has bought you an oil press in the civilian area of ​​South City. From now on, your family will make a living from there."

Mrs. Wu wanted to kneel down to express her gratitude, but was stopped by Hongdou.

"How can I make you kneel down?"

Granny Wu cried, "Thank your daughter for me. I will never forget her kindness."

Mother Sun was jealous.

Miss Qianqian said she wanted to redeem Mrs. Wu's family, and she actually did so. She is really a person who values ​​friendship and loyalty.

Freedom is indeed good. Mrs. Wu’s hunchback problem was cured all of a sudden!

Moreover, Miss Qianqian knew that Mrs. Wu's son was good at pressing oil, so she opened an oil press for him. This is the capital city, and although the shop is located in the civilian area of ​​the southern city, it is not cheap.

This old lady Wu was soft-hearted at the time and ended up creating such a great good relationship. It would be hard for her not to have a prosperous life in the future, but it's a pity that it wasn't her.

Mrs. Fang, who lived in the same room with Mrs. Wu, rushed out of the door and enthusiastically stuffed a handful of copper coins into Mrs. Wu's hand, "Old sister, you left and I didn't get to see you off. This money is a token of my love. You must accept it and you are not allowed to refuse it."

After the carriage left, Madam Sun and Granny Fang, who had been watching the fun, returned home side by side.

"Sister Wu, you call me Sister Wu so affectionately. You were the one who liked to bully others the most in the past."

Granny Fang smiled brightly: "That was in the past, it's all in the past."

Granny Fang took out a handful of melon seeds and ate them while muttering, "I heard that Sister Wu's grandson is very good at studying. Now that he has escaped from the status of a lowly person, he may pass the imperial examination and become an official in the future. It never hurts to curry favor with him in advance."

Grandma Sun joked, "Oh, you said that Mrs. Wu is really lucky. If the master had given me the job of throwing the child away, it would have been great."

Granny Fang spat, "I'll give the child to you? I'm afraid you'll kill him before he even reaches the mass grave. Don't I know you? You and I are both dung beetles in the toilet, very bad. But I plan to turn over a new leaf and be a good person in the future, because Sister Wu's incident made me realize that good people will be rewarded."

Wang heard from the servants that the old lady was crying, saying that Lin Qianqian had tricked her into selling several indentures.

Wang couldn't help feeling a little gloating.

Not only did Old Lady Lin control Jiang's dowry, she also often came to her to extort benefits. She had long been fed up with the old lady.

It's just that because the other party is an elder, there is nothing we can do.

Speaking of Lin Qingyun, he has been bullied badly by Minister Zhang in the yamen recently.

He planned to take out more silver to bribe Minister Zhang so that he could live a more comfortable life.

In official circles, there is nothing that cannot be solved by bribery. If it cannot be solved, it must be because the money given is not enough.

"Madam, please give me five thousand taels. I will use it as a gift to my boss."

Wang was extorted of seven thousand taels by Zhu Qiang and was cheated of another four thousand three hundred taels by Baozhu, so she did not have much silver left.

"I have no money."

Lin Qingyun: "When you married me, didn't you bring a dowry of 10,000 taels of silver?"

"Over the years, the family has needed money for everything."

Lin Qingyun: "Don't we have Jiang's dowry? Just use Jiang's dowry to pay for it."

"It's easy for you to say that. Jiang's dowry is all in your mother's hands. No one can take it away from her."

Wang and Lin Qingyun were both worried about the money, and finally they both thought of Lin Qianqian.

Seeing that Lin Qianqian got a huge amount of money while they and their husband didn't get any benefits, they naturally felt very uncomfortable.

Lin Qingyun gritted his teeth and said, "When that girl was born, she should have been drowned in the basin to save people from worrying about her."

Wang smiled coquettishly; she had been waiting for these words for a long time.

"Oh, Qingyun, that girl is your own daughter. If you are really willing, I will treat her. Isn't she a lucky star? I think she must have used some evil magic to cure Mr. Song. To deal with this kind of evil magic, just invite Taoist Tianji."

This Taoist priest Tianji is extraordinary.
