Chapter 294: Her mother also has a dog outside?
Xueyuan started arguing again.
When Lin Yingxue returned to Xueyuan, she threatened Qi and Lin Zhi with self-harm.
She forced them to give her another 10,000 taels as a dowry, and also asked for 1,000 acres of fertile land, three farms, and the two most profitable shops.
Qi was so angry that she fainted on the spot, and Lin Zhi's face also turned ashen.
Lin Qingjun laughed and said, "The annual income of the entire Lin Mansion is only a little over three thousand taels. Lin Zhi is a civil servant, and his salary is only that much. My father's ancestors were not a very powerful family. They all came from farming families. The family background is not strong. If it weren't for the dowry given by the Qi family, how could the Lin Mansion exist today?"
"Ten thousand taels of silver, one thousand fertile fields? And two shops? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, this is going to cost Qi his life."
Under the lamp, they sat together and talked.
Xie Yang asked, "How much wealth does the Lin family have?"
Lin Qingjun blurted out, "Eight thousand taels of silver in deposit, five shops, two of which are just storefronts, one thousand acres of fertile land, and some other hidden income. Now the only silver the Qi family can handle is about twelve thousand taels."
Everyone gasped when they heard this and looked at her in disbelief.
"Miss, how do you know so much?"
"Yes, it's just like you are managing the accounts of the Lin Mansion."
Lin Qingjun's smile remained unchanged. "It's nothing. You can tell with a little attention. Of course, this is also thanks to my elder sister. She insisted that I serve her. From time to time, Qi would show her some accounts. I listened to them a lot, so I knew it, didn't I?"
"The same goes for Madam Qi. She didn't shy away from me at all. She thought I was a concubine's daughter and hadn't read much, so she thought I was stupid and didn't understand the ins and outs of this. But don't forget, learning is also a form of learning."
In her previous life, she was able to handle the affairs of the Xiao Mansion so quickly, all thanks to Qi.
Thinking of this, she smiled sarcastically. Lin Yingxue was impatient to learn this and said that she could just find a few reliable maids to take care of it. Why did she have to do it herself? When Qi heard this, her face turned pale with anger.
When everyone heard this, they all said in unison, "That's amazing."
Liu brought a small box, opened it and pushed it over.
"I don't have anything to give you. Take these. You'll need them to manage the Wu'an Marquis's residence."
Lin Qingjun took a look and saw that it was full of small change and copper coins, at least fifty or sixty taels?
Everyone knew that this was all the concubine's belongings, and it was specially saved for the young lady to use at this time.
Everyone fell silent again.
Concubine Liu's monthly allowance was reduced to only one or two taels of silver by Qi. If the young lady had not insisted on raising her monthly allowance to twenty taels in the past two months, I'm afraid Concubine Liu would still be in an unknown situation.
Lin Qingjun smiled, closed the box, and pushed it back.
"Mom, don't worry. I understand what you mean. You're worried that I'll be bullied if I don't have enough money to bribe people. Don't worry, I have as much money as you do now. Look, what is this?"
She placed the gold ingot she got from the painting "Warm Home" in front of her.
Liu was shocked. Where did this come from?
Xieyang had a lot to say this time, and she excitedly told everything that happened in Qianzi Pavilion.
Everyone was stunned again.
"Miss Mu, Miss Su? Oh my God, Miss, aren't you accidentally being fought over by these two ladies?"
"No, Xiaotao, we're stealing the embroidery, not the young lady."
"You're wrong. That embroidery was embroidered by the young lady. You're stealing her. If the young lady embroiders a few more like this in the future, wouldn't she be even better than the top-notch embroiderer at Wanchongxuan?"
Xiyang was very proud. "More than that, this is worth two ingots of gold. Which embroiderer is better than this? Even those in the palace can't embroider as well as Miss, right? So, Auntie, don't worry. Miss has silver on her. What's more, the prince..."
"Ahem."
Xieyang wanted to continue speaking when he was interrupted by Lin Qingjun's cough.
Lin Qingjun smiled and said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Just stay here peacefully."
She gave the land deed and farm deeds of Zhuangzi to Zhang Yapo who was standing beside her.
"After three days, go to the farm and see what we need to buy. Also, ask two honest farmers to look after the farm for us. As for the three hundred acres of fertile land, you should also go and see what the situation is. It's time to start working on these things."
Zhang Yapo accepted the order and agreed.
She then said to Xiao Tao, "You can't let your guard down for the next three days. Especially tomorrow, Lin Yingxue will definitely attack us at Qijunyuan before she's carried out of the mansion."
Xiao Tao said, "Don't worry, Miss. I can save it."
Lin Qingjun then said to Xieyang, "As for you, tell Lin Chengfeng about Lin Yingxue's betrothal gifts and lend him a hand. Make sure to deduct half of Lin Yingxue's dowry before she's carried out tomorrow."
Deducted half?
Everyone looked at their young lady in shock again. Was she trying to kill Lin Yingxue?
The people in Wu'an Marquis's Mansion need to be taken care of, and the people in the Prince's Mansion need it even more, even more than those in Wu'an Marquis's Mansion. After deducting 10,000 taels, wouldn't that only be 5,000 taels? This?
Lin Qingjun raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why, do you have any objections?"
"Ahem, no, miss, we'll go do it now."
They left as if escaping.
Liu tapped her forehead and said, "Why are you scaring them? Okay, I'm here. Go back to your room and rest. And take this gold bead. I don't need it yet."
Lin Qingjun wanted to push it back, but seeing the worry on her face, she let it go.
But after Lin Qingjun left, Liu pulled Zhang Mummy aside and quietly gave her something.
She looked solemn. "Mute, please deliver this to a family tomorrow morning and tell them that it's time to fulfill their promise."
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, her expression became nervous. Although she didn't understand what her aunt was doing, she must have her reasons.
"Don't worry, Auntie. I'll be there before dawn tomorrow."
Liu nodded and waved her hand to let her go. She sat alone in front of the lamp, her eyes passing through the light and returning to when she was five years old.
She sat with him by the river and said that there was no one left at home and she was going out to beg for food.
He said that he had no one at home, but he wanted to win military merit and asked her to wait for him to come back and marry her, and also asked her not to go far away to beg for food.
pity.
The two of them never met again after that, and all they had was the stone with some unknown words written on it. He said it was a token of their engagement.
When Lin Qingjun learned about this, she was confused. Her mother was outside and also had a dog?
