  He went to the accounting room and scolded Mr. Sun in the accounting room severely.

  "Without any sense or brains, he dares to withhold the second young master's expenses, and no one can withhold the second young master's..."

  nb”

  "No matter how tight it is, we have to find a way to get the money out. We can't be stingy with Second Master." Madam Han said resolutely.

  "Madam, the amount of money that Second Master owes is not small. If it were a little less, we could have made do with some adjustments here and there. But now, with the new estate already..." Mr. Sun sighed.

  "Alright, alright, stop spouting this useless nonsense." Mr. Han interrupted Mr. Sun's words with a tense tone, his sharp gaze piercing through like a knife.

  Mr. Sun knew he had misspoken and hung his head in anxious silence.

  Lin Lan's heart skipped a beat, the old witch had set up a new business? Needless to say, she must have used the profits from Ming Yun's shop and the estate over the past few years. This way, the silver coins would naturally become her property, Lin Lan was heartbroken to the point of bleeding.

  "Lin Lan, go back first. I'll let Chun Xing send the silver over later." Madame Han seemed a bit guilty and hastily sent Lin Lan away.

  Lin Lan said with a smile: "That daughter-in-law has gone back first."

  As soon as Lin Lan left, Mrs. Han lowered her voice and scolded Mr. Sun: "Who told you to mention the Zhuangzi affair in front of Second Young Master's wife? It was agreed that this matter would be kept secret for the time being... but now you've gone and blabbed it all out, tomorrow the whole mansion will know about it."

  Mr. Sun wiped his sweat and confessed: "It was a mistake on my part, I deserve to die..."

  Mr. Sun was really anxious, and his wife let him deceive her, fearing that the second young master and the second young lady would know, but he happened to say it wrong, if he broke the rice bowl because of this, it would be unjust.

  Lin Lan felt depressed as she walked out of the accounting room. Once this silver was transferred to the old witch's name, it would be difficult to get it back. No wonder the old witch wanted to keep it a secret. This won't do, I have to think of a way to investigate and see if there's still a chance to make up for it.

  "Second Young Mistress, Madam shouldn't deny it this time, should she?" Ruyi asked with concern.

  nb)

  "Hurry up, we must clean up the courtyard today..."

  Lin Lan looked up and saw Mother Yao leading a few people towards the small courtyard beside Weiyu Xuan.

  "Isn't Ruyi's courtyard always idle?"

  "Yes! Is there a guest coming to the mansion?" Ruyi wondered.

  Lin Lan sneered: "Guest? Ordinary guests wouldn't stay in this courtyard even if they came, haven't you seen how close it is to the Weiyu Pavilion?"

  As if in a dream, Yu Er was shocked and exclaimed: "Could it be that the thing is true? And Madame is preparing..."

  Does it need to be said? Of course Sunzi is more important.

  On this day in the early morning, at the vegetable market, an old woman was selecting white cabbage with two young girls. Nearby, two women squatting on the ground picking potatoes were chatting.

  "The master I serve, it's really not bad luck, to have met such a devoted young master and gotten pregnant so quickly. As soon as the old lady heard that there was a grandson in her belly, she immediately agreed to promote her to be the madam." A plump-faced woman in her thirties said with a smile.

  "Which family?" asked another square-faced woman curiously.

  The round-faced woman's eyes darted back and forth, looking left and right, mysteriously saying: "I'll tell you, but don't go spreading it around."

  The tall-faced woman said eagerly: "No way, no way, can't I be trusted?"

  "It's the Li family... the Grand Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, the Li family."

  The old woman picking Chinese cabbage hesitated with her hand on the vegetable and perked up her ears.

  "That's great! Can follow the master to a wealthy family." The woman with a square face smiled and said.

  A round-faced woman curled her lip and muttered: "What's so good about that? I've heard that the Li family is very strict, when eating, even the daughter-in-law has to stand by and serve. Life is not easy..."

  "Unbelievable! Only those wicked old ladies or families with inferiority complex trying to show off as high-class households would do such a thing. How could a decent family treat their daughter-in-law so cruelly?"

  "It can't be helped, right? I don't like going to such households either, but there's no way around it." The round-faced woman sighed.

  The two peeled potatoes and went somewhere else.

  The old lady beside him didn't buy the Chinese cabbage either, and instructed the two maids: "You follow the list to buy all the vegetables, I have an urgent matter to attend to and will return to the mansion first."

  Before long, the two women reappeared in a quiet alleyway not far from the vegetable market.

  "Is everything settled?" a man asked in a low voice with his back to the two.

  "I've already told the old lady of the Ding family what you instructed me to say, and I saw her face change color. She didn't even buy any vegetables, and hastily left." The round-faced woman replied.

  The man spread out one hand, with two silver ingots on his palm: "Don't come to this market again in the future."

  The two of them were overjoyed and accepted the silver, bowing repeatedly: "Thank you, young master, thank you, young master..."

  In the afternoon, Lin Lan lay on the bed, wanting to take a nap. For the past two days, she had been severely sleep-deprived and physically exhausted, urgently needing to catch up on rest. However, with something on her mind, she couldn't fall asleep no matter what. This matter was already beyond her capabilities, and even if she wanted to ask around, there was nowhere to ask, so she still needed to ask Ming Yun to see if he had any connections.

  "Second Young Mistress..." Yin Liu called out softly.

  "What's up?" Lin Lan asked lazily.

  "Embroidered shoes have something to say"

  Lin Lan stood up and smoothed her hair: "Let her in."

  Jin Xiu walked in with a smile and greeted her: "Second Young Mistress, didn't you ask me to pay attention to the movements in the mansion these past few days?"

  Lin Lan glared at her: "Don't play dumb, speak up."

  Jin Xiu smiled and said: "Second Young Madam, Mrs. Ding has arrived, it's said that she came with a fierce attitude!"

  Lin Lan was shocked. Madam Ding's temper is really explosive! She came to the door as soon as she got the news, and Lin Lan thought she would first call Ting Ruoyan back to verify it, then deliberate on what to do next.

  "Still so happy? Typical schadenfreude." Lin Lan criticized.

  Jin Xiu was taken aback for a moment and said innocently: "I think it's flattering to be guessed by the second young mistress, it's something worth being happy about."

  Lin Lan couldn't help but smile: "Go take a look over there and see what's going on, hurry back to me."

  Jin Xiu Xiao Mi Tan's eyes lit up, and with a smile, she responded and left.

  I hope Mrs. Ding can give some support and show the old lady and the old witch who's boss, it would be best to take this opportunity to abolish those damned rules.

  Jin Xiu returned after a long time: "Young Madam was taken back by Mrs. Ding, and she chased her all the way to the second gate. I don't know what they talked about, but I saw Mrs. Ding with a dark face, not even bothering to reason with anyone, while Young Madam just cried..."

  Finally heard some uplifting news, Mrs. Ding is so fierce! What face-saving or not, her own daughter was almost bullied to death, do they still want to put on a good face? For this kind of hypocritical relative, it's fitting to deal with them like this, best if the imperial envoy would write a few more memorials and impeach them thoroughly.

  "Speaking of which, the silver willow outside suddenly passed on: 'Mother Zhu has arrived.'"

  Lin Lan waved her hand and let Jin Xiu hurry aside, then quickly picked up a book to pretend to read and said: "Please come in."

  The maid rushed in, looking flustered: "Second Young Mistress, the old lady has fainted, please hurry over to take a look."

  Lin Lan was shocked and dropped all the books: "How did he suddenly faint? Quick, Yin Liu, carry the medicine box, let's go to Chao Hui Hall."

  The three of them walked quickly, and Lin Lan asked anxiously: "How did Grandma faint? What's the situation now? Please tell me in detail, Mom, so I can have an idea."

  The mother's face was difficult to look at, and she hesitated before saying: "It's because the lady from the Ding family came, and over some trivial matters, said a few unpleasant words. The old lady didn't sleep well last night, got anxious for a moment, and then...and then fainted."

  For some trivial matters, a few unpleasant words were said? Lin Lan sneered in her heart. It seems that the scene was quite intense, otherwise the old lady would not have fainted from anger.

  "Did your grandmother have similar symptoms before?"

  "Never had..." Mother said.

  Lin Lan quickened her pace, what Grandmother feared most at this age was a stroke. Why didn't the old witch faint? When the time came, she would give her two more injections and make her paralyzed in bed forever. However, such a shameless person had a thick skin, and ordinary attacks were ineffective.

  When Lin Lan rushed to the Chao Hui Hall, both Madame Han and Madame Yu were beside themselves with anxiety. Madame Yu was calling out "Mother" while crying, her expression so sorrowful that it seemed as if Old Lady had already passed away.

  "What about the doctor? Why hasn't he arrived yet..." Mrs. Han said anxiously.

  The servant said to the madam, "Madam, the master has already sent someone to invite him, but it will take some time for him to arrive. I thought that Second Young Master's wife was skilled in medicine, so I invited her first."

  Mr. Han glanced at Lin Lan and said to Zhu's mother: "It's still best to hurry up and urge the doctor."

  Yu saw Lin Lan coming and said: "Lin Lan, you're just in time. Take a look at the old lady, what's wrong with her? She pinched her people, but no matter how she called, she couldn't wake up..."

  Lin Lan looked at Mrs. Han and said weakly: "Mother, it's an emergency, let the daughter-in-law take a look first! What if the illness is delayed..."

  Yu pulled her over: "Hurry up, don't dawdle."

  Lin Lan lifted the old lady's eyelids to check, fortunately, her pupils were not dilated and there was no congestion. She then took her pulse again, feeling it was like pressing on a violin string, hard and powerful, but not the most severe. Lin Lan asked Xinyu to take out the silver needle and gave the old lady two injections. The old lady murmured "hmm" and slowly came to.

  Yu's wife burst into tears: "Wake up, wake up, old lady, you finally woke up... You scared me to death..."

  The old lady was muddle-headed and unaware of what was going on around her. Her eyes were even more dull and confused, in a daze.

  Lin Lan said to her aunt, "Aunt, it's best to let everyone in the house go out first. Everyone is surrounding us, and the old lady will not be able to breathe. It would also be better for my sister-in-law to calm down and give the old lady another examination."

  Yu saw Lin Lan's two needles and let the old lady wake up, how could she not believe her? She hurriedly said: "Everyone will go out first, Zhu Ma, stay with me to serve Lao Tai Tai." Yu Shi was so anxious that she actually ignored Han Shi.

  Han's mood was already bad, and now Lin Lan and Yu Shi were singing in harmony, actually treating her as an outsider who wanted to be sent away. She couldn't help but glare at Lin Lan, and with her own mother-in-law present, she had to go ask Eldest Aunt's meaning. Wasn't this intentionally embarrassing her? In her heart, she was also annoyed with Yu Shi. Lin Lan had only helped her treat a case of fallen sleep once, yet treated the person as one of their own, without even thinking about why they came on this trip. So stupid.
