Chapter 134: Chapter 134 – Being the Master’s Woman (2)_1 Chapter 134: Chapter 134 – Being the Master’s Woman (2)_1 But as soon as Lao Fan and his companion had left, Lanhua’s family arrived.
Upon entering, Aunt Wang grabbed Lin Yuan’s hand and burst into tears, and although their family had no blood relation to Lin Jiaxin’s, they had always gotten along harmoniously over the years.
Lin Jiaxin and his wife were also known as kind and honest people, so naturally, they grew closer to them.
Lin Fugui’s face was also flushed red, as if he had just lost his temper.
He had not yet cooled down upon entering, “These Lin family people, what kind of evil thing are they to bully your family like this!
He deserved to have that stroke and beco paralyzed!”
Seeing his father once again speaking without restraint, Lin Changqing quickly pulled on his sleeve and gestured toward the eastern room with his eyes, after all, Lin Jianling was Lin Jiaxin’s biological father.
Reminded by his son, Lin Fugui could only sigh helplessly and sat down on a small stool, brooding angrily.
Lady Liu, already heavily pregnant, ca out.
She exchanged a few words with Aunt Wang, and then the two of them wiped their tears together, leaving Lin Yuan and Lanhua sowhat at a loss.
“Mom, don’t cry now, didn’t we co here for a reason?”
It wasn’t until Lanhua reminded her that Aunt Wang slapped her thigh with a start, “Look at , just feeling sorry for myself and forgetting the real business.” Saying so, she took out a small cloth package from her bosom, wrapped in a blue-flowered handkerchief.
“Sister, here are six taels of silver, saved up by us old folks over the years.
Take it.
I know it’s not much, but it’s better than nothing.
As for the one hundred taels of silver you owe Fuman Building, ah, just try to make up what you can.”
When they realized Aunt Wang had brought out silver, Lady Liu and Lin Yuan were both shocked.
Lanhua’s family wasn’t well off, only slightly better than theirs.
If Lin Jiaxin’s leg had still been in good shape, Lanhua’s family wouldn’t even be able to compare with theirs.
But to their surprise, the first to bring silver to their house was them!
“Please put the silver away, elder sister!
Earning a little money is not easy for you and your husband, and Changqing is of marrying age too.
You can’t give your money to us!
Quick, put it away, put it away!” Lady Liu absolutely would not take the silver, but since Aunt Wang had brought it, she had no intention of taking it back and forcefully stuffed it into Lady Liu’s clothes.
Lanhua also chid in for support, “Auntie, please keep it.
My father earns money by pulling carts every day, and my brother is not in a hurry to marry.
We’ll definitely have silver when the ti cos, so you take it first.”
Seeing Lin Yuan just standing idly by and not willing to accept the silver, Lanhua slapped her on the shoulder in frustration and urged, “You blockhead, why don’t you quickly take the silver!
Do you really want to end up like Li Feng’e said and beco a prostitute?”
Lin Yuan was speechless.
It seed they feared Lin Jiaxin and his wife would have no choice but to sell their children when they couldn’t repay the money, which was why they rushed to offer money.
Not to ntion she wouldn’t be unable to pay back the silver, even if she truly couldn’t, she didn’t believe her parents would have the heart to sell her and her sisters!
“Auntie, we can’t accept this silver.” Lin Yuan took Aunt Wang’s hand away and picked out the silver pieces one by one from her mother’s clothes, put them back into the handkerchief, and handed it back to Aunt Wang.
Seeing that she wouldn’t take it, Lin Yuan forcibly stuffed it into Lanhua’s hands.
“Yuanyuan, do you think this is too little?” Aunt Wang’s eyes almost teared up again.
Lin Yuan quickly hugged her arm and sat down on the kang while wiping her tears and explaining, “Auntie, what are you talking about?
Not to ntion Brother Changqing is my father’s apprentice, just considering the friendship I share with Lanhua, if I really had difficulties, you would be the first one I’d turn to.”
Hearing her say this, Aunt Wang felt a bit better, but one hundred taels of silver wasn’t easy to repay.
In one year, could it all be cleared?
Seeing Aunt Wang’s doubt, Lin Yuan smiled but didn’t reveal that she had already torn up the IOU with Xia Zheng.
Instead, she turned to Lanhua, “Lanhua, do you rember the mooncakes we made a few days ago?”
Of course, Lanhua rembered; at the ti, she had even teased Lin Yuan about whether they could sell or not.
But with today’s trouble, she had forgotten to ask.
“Yes, those mooncakes, they sold very well.
And I’ve also landed a big business deal.” Lin Yuan had ntioned to her parents when she got back about the mooncake business with the Jin family but only told Lanhua that they needed hands to help make mooncakes and didn’t go into detail.
“Do you rember Jin Ji Vinegar Workshop in town?
Yes, right, it’s their family.
Their matriarch wants to entertain guests for the Mid-Autumn Festival and has ordered two hundred mooncakes from .
If this business goes well, we can surely make a good amount of silver.”
Hearing such good news, Mother and daughter Lanhua were a bit slow to react.
The Jin family was a prominent household in Zhuma Town, and it was astonishing that they, as modest village won, could now do business with such a household.
“Ah, no wonder you asked last night if my mother would be willing to work here!
So you’ve landed a big deal!” Lanhua was the first to catch on, slapping her forehead.
Lin Yuan covered her mouth, laughing so hard she couldn’t close it.
Seeing that she had a plan, Aunt Wang’s heart also settled, and she imdiately offered to help with the work without charge!
