Lin Yuanzhou brought Chu Lingxuan back to the Duke's Mansion.
And asked the chef to prepare a table full of delicacies from land and sea.
Chu Lingxuan no longer cared about her image.
She hadn't eaten for several days, and now she was wolfing down her food.
Seeing that Chu Lingxuan was extremely hungry, Lin Yuanzhou said, "Eat slowly, don't choke."
As he spoke, he considerately served her a bowl of soup.
Chu Lingxuan was afraid of choking, so she took a sip of the soup.
This was the best meal she had had since she was kicked out of the general's mansion.
Before this, she wanted to go to her grandmother for help, but was stopped by her grandmother.
She was not even allowed to enter the door.
He even insulted her and called her a money-loser.
When she left the border with the prince, Wang also brought people to recognize her relatives.
He also wanted Chu Lingxuan to bring their whole family to the capital to enjoy a good life.
But Chu Lingxuan refused outright.
He even refused to acknowledge his relationship with them.
"Mr. Lin, thank you for saving me, taking me in, and giving me food!"
After Chu Lingxuan had eaten and drunk her fill, she burped.
She looked at Lin Yuanzhou and lowered her head guiltily. "I didn't ignore you on purpose in the Imperial College before. It was my uncle and the others who didn't allow me to get too close to you..."
Lin Yuanzhou waved his hand and said, "It's no big deal. Even though you are not studying at the Imperial College now, we were classmates. If I see you in trouble, I will lend a helping hand."
Chu Lingxuan felt very sad when she heard this.
The man whom she once looked down upon helped her when she was at her lowest point.
"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry for hurting you in the past." Chu Lingxuan apologized sincerely.
At present, she has no choice but to rely on Lin Yuanzhou.
Even if she worked as a maid temporarily in the Duke's Mansion, she would have enough food to eat.
There is no need to sleep on the streets or live in dilapidated temples.
Lin Yuanzhou looked at Chu Lingxuan and said, "Miss Chu, you are too kind."
"After you finish eating, take a shower, change into clean clothes and have a good rest. I will ask the maid to take you to the wing room later."
Lin Yuanzhou said.
Chu Lingxuan choked up as she listened to Lin Yuanzhou's arrangements.
"Mr. Lin, thank you."
"If you need me in the future, just tell me what to do."
"Okay." Lin Yuanzhou nodded.
Chu Lingxuan looked at the huge Duke's Mansion and suddenly came up with an idea.
After she washed, showered, and changed her clothes, she lay down on the bed and went to sleep.
She thought about it for a long time during her sleep.
Also slept very comfortably.
When Chu Lingxuan woke up, she was summoned to the main hall by the maid.
Chu Lingxuan was a little uneasy.
But I still followed.
When she arrived at the main hall, a majestic old man was sitting on the armchair.
Chu Lingxuan looked a little frightened.
Because the old man had sharp eyes and a droopy face, she was really scared.
Without having to guess, she knew that this was Duke Lin.
"Grandfather, this is the Chu Lingxuan I mentioned to you. She is General Mu's niece." Lin Yuanzhou said, "She has been driven out of the mansion by General Mu, and I brought her back."
Duke Lin stroked his long beard and looked at Chu Lingxuan thoughtfully, "Were you kicked out of the General's Mansion?"
"To answer the Duke's question, yes." Chu Lingxuan responded while kneeling on the ground.
Chu Lingxuan lowered her head, although she didn't look at Duke Lin.
But she felt two sharp gazes staring two holes in her.
"If you want to stay in the Duke's Mansion, it's not impossible, but you have to work for the Duke's Mansion." Duke Lin said.
Chu Lingxuan was stunned for a moment, then kowtowed and thanked him, "Thank you, Lord Lin. I will go through fire and water for you!"
Looking at such a sensible girl.
Duke Lin knew that he had chosen the right person this time.
…
General Mu’s Mansion.
"Mom, what are you worried about?" When Mu Zimin came to find Luo Shi, he found that Luo Shi was looking at the account book with melancholy.
"I have a debt that I'm afraid I can't collect." Luo said.
"What debt? I'll go and get it back for you." Mu Zimin volunteered.
"She is the wife of Duke Lin. She borrowed one hundred taels from me when she was alive. Now she is gone, and I am embarrassed to ask her for the debt..." Luo said.
"What did she borrow the money for?" Mu Zimin asked.
"It seemed like it was some happy event for the family. It was so long ago that I forgot." Luo said.
“What we used on them can be taken back,” said Mu Zimin.
"Then go and help me collect it back. If you can collect the money, mother will give you fifty taels." Luo said to Mu Zimin.
Upon hearing this, Mu Zimin raised his eyebrows and patted his chest and said, "Mom, just let me do it! I will definitely satisfy you!"
Luo Shi looked at Mu Zimin and saw that he seemed to be very confident, so she didn't want to discourage him.
If she could have it back, she would have taken it back long ago.
Duke Lin is a miser who never spends a penny.
After receiving the order, Mu Zimin went to the Duke's Mansion immediately.
About half a day later, he came back dejected.
Luo had already prepared food for Mu Zimin.
Mu Zimin covered his face and said, "Mom, not only did I not get my money back, I was also beaten..."
Luo wrapped the boiled eggs in a piece of cloth and handed them to Feng Wu, asking Feng Wu to iron them for Mu Zimin.
Feng Wu whispered, "Look at you, you are incapable of accomplishing anything. Not only did you not get the money, you also got beaten... You should just study high-yield crops in the future!"
"Okay, my lady, I understand." Mu Zimin said with his head down.
After a pause, Mu Zimin looked at Luo and said, "Mother, who do you think I saw in the Duke's Mansion?"
Luo Shi wasn't very interested, but still asked, "Who did you see?"
"I saw Chu Lingxuan in the Duke's Mansion." Mu Zimin said.
Luo paused, "Why is she in the Duke's Mansion?"
"I asked the maid in the Duke's Mansion, and she said that Chu Lingxuan was taken back by Lin Yuanzhou. She was being bullied by beggars at the time, and it was Lin Yuanzhou who saved her." Mu Zimin said.
[Needless to say, the reason why my second brother got beaten was definitely Chu Lingxuan's bad idea.]
Mu Yan was gnawing on the tasteless wood and suddenly uttered something from his heart.
Luo Shi: Chu Lingxuan is restless and never obeys the rules wherever she goes. She always wants to hurt her family.
"It seems that the money will never be returned." Luo said with a sigh.
[Mom, let me go, I’ll go get your money back! ] Mu Yan raised her hand and said.
As for collecting debts, she knows how to do it.
She will definitely be able to get the money back if she goes.
Upon hearing this, Luo looked at Mu Yan in surprise.
My daughter can't even speak clearly, how can she collect the debt?
It takes talking to collect debts.
However, Luo also wanted to give it a try.
Luo slammed the table and said to Mu Zimin, "How can this be so absurd that you even dare to hurt my child! I will go and ask for an explanation from you right now!"
When Mu Zimin heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Mom, what if you get beaten up when you go?"
[Mother is a lady of the first rank conferred by the Emperor Jin! How dare Lord Lin, a relative of a different surname, not give face to mother? But mother can’t get the money back even if she does anything. I must go and get it back.]
The reason why Mu Yan dared to say so confidently that only she could get the money back was because she knew Lord Lin's secret.
"If he dares to hit me, I will ruin his reputation." Luo said.
"Don't say anything, let's go and collect the debt." Luo said.
Luo picked up Mu Yan and walked out.
The carriage was also ready.
Duke Lin had just driven away Mu Zimin, and now he saw Luo coming.
Duke Lin knew that they would not give up the money so easily.
Duke Lin originally wanted to drive those people away.
But thinking that the other party was a first-rank lady, he could only endure it.
"Excuse me, madam, what's the matter?" asked Duke Lin.
"My son came to your house to collect a debt, but not only did you not pay him back, you also beat him up. Is this true, Lord?" Luo held Mu Yan in her arms and walked towards Lord Lin.
Duke Lin looked at Luo's dignified face and felt a little timid.
But he quickly covered it up, "That money was borrowed from you by my damn wife. It has nothing to do with us. If you really want the money back, go ask my damn wife for it. I won't stop you."
