In the days to come, I will go out more frequently and change my clothes more frequently.
This also led to the neighbors knowing how filial the daughter-in-law of the Fu family was.
Lu He watched Lin go out and show off again, and pulled Hong Mei to her side, muttering, "Young Lady is so kind to the old lady. She didn't have any of the silks and satins she was wearing, so she gave them all to her. The old lady took Young Lady's things but didn't say a single good word about her, so why did Young Lady still make clothes for her?"
Hongmei smiled mysteriously, "You'll know later."
"Why are you telling me that?"
Lu He soon found out the answer, and the incident happened one afternoon.
That afternoon, a steward came over with the account book, and it happened that the person who opened the door was Lin who was about to go out.
Lin looked at the middle-aged man in front of him suspiciously, "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"
The steward knew Lin's identity the moment he saw her, and said with a smile, "I am Wang, the shopkeeper of the rice shop in the alley of East Street. I suppose you are the old lady of the Fu family, right?"
When Lin heard that it was the owner of the rice shop, a smile immediately spread across her face. "I'm from the Fu family. I wonder what brings you here?"
Shopkeeper Wang smiled and said, "It's like this. A few days ago, I was out buying goods and missed the due date. As soon as I got back today, I immediately handed the account book over."
"The account book?" Lin was completely confused. "Who did you give it to?"
"Of course it's the young lady." Shopkeeper Wang said with a smile.
"You gave the account book to her? Could it be that the shop is her property?" Lin stared at him.
When Shopkeeper Wang saw her, his heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly remembered that it was Nanny Wang who came to pick up the account books before, and the shop owners were asked to deliver them to the restaurant and hand them over to Nanny Wang at the specified time.
He thought that after the young lady got married, the yard at home was too small and inconvenient. But now looking at Lin's appearance, he had another idea.
The young lady didn't want the Fu family to know how many shops she owned.
If that's the case, then this trip not only didn't bring any benefits, but instead caused trouble.
Just when Wang was thinking about how to make up his lie, Nanny Wang heard the noise and came out. When Wang saw her, he felt like he had seen a savior.
Nanny Wang walked to the main gate and said to Shopkeeper Wang, "Shopkeeper Wang, the young lady invites you in."
Shopkeeper Wang and Nanny Wang said to Lin to step back and headed towards Bei Yutang's house.
Lin looked at the departing figure of Shopkeeper Wang, and her mind became clear.
She was cheated!
She said before that all her money was spent on expanding and renovating the house, and that the dowry was useless. How could it be useless?
Lin was very angry.
You are such a good person, Bei Yutang, how dare you lie to her.
When Manager Wang met Bei Yutang, he first bowed to her, then presented the account book and explained the reason.
Bei Yutang said it was okay.
Shopkeeper Wang added, "Miss, did I cause you any trouble by coming here today?"
Bei Yutang said nonchalantly, "Don't worry too much, it's nothing."
There might have been some minor troubles before, but after this period of time, with Lin's daily visits and daily showing off, nothing happened. Even if Lin knew that she was hiding a lot of things and wanted to ruin her reputation outside, I'm afraid no one would believe her.
