Chapter 469: Chapter 469 Helping Younger Brother (2)_1 Chapter 469: Chapter 469 Helping Younger Brother (2)_1 Jin Yuyu had long understood the true nature of the people from the second wife’s quarters and nodded her acknowledgnt.
“Also, I know you’re not completely satisfied with Old Lady Jin, feeling that she’s biased, but have you ever considered why she’s biased?”
Jin Yuyu couldn’t help but smile helplessly, “How would I not know?
Jin Lingling has a sweet tongue and knows how to charm people; how could I compare with her?”
Lin Yuan was speechless; so the eldest miss knew it was her own fault!
“If that’s the case, then let Old Lady Jin see your goodness.
If she has a sweet tongue and knows how to charm, and we can’t do that, we shouldn’t compete with her on this.
We compete in other ways.”
Other ways?
Jin Yuyu felt a bit lost.
“Yes, other ways.
You see, just now, if Mother Feng hadn’t ntioned buying mooncakes and pastries, would you have intended to say anything?
Sister, why not let Old Lady Jin know about the good things you’ve done?
Don’t tell it’s because you disdain to do so.
What’s the difference between doing good deeds and not letting the other person know, and walking in brocade at night?”
Jin Yuyu lowered her gaze; indeed, in the past, she truly disdained to inform her grandmother of such minor matters, which she considered trivial.
But now things were different.
If she didn’t speak up about so matters, they might be deliberately concealed by certain individuals.
Seeing that she had understood, Lin Yuan didn’t say much more.
There were still many things waiting for her back at the shop, so she hurried back.
Just as she reached the carriage, Lin Yuan suddenly slapped her forehead, “Aiyo, look at my mory!”
Jin Yuyu was puzzled and quickly asked what the matter was.
Lin Yuan chuckled, “Sister, there’s sothing I would like to ask for your help with.”
Jin Yuyu patted her hand and smiled, “Since you call sister, why say please at all?
Just ntion it.
As long as it’s within my ability, I’ll surely get it done.”
Lin Yuan grinned and whispered a few words into her ear.
Jin Yuyu burst into laughter, “So it was you who caused a commotion at Shande Hall and even tricked them out of two taels of silver that day!
You have no idea how angry my uncle was; he was nearly spitting blood.”
Lin Yuan’s face turned red with embarrassnt.
Although running off with the two taels of silver was her fault, the fat steward had indeed done sothing he shouldn’t have that day.
In that case, it couldn’t entirely be considered her fault.
Or perhaps, she should split the bla fifty-fifty with the fat steward, each bearing half the responsibility.
Seeing her reaction, Jin Yuyu quickly patted her back, comforting her, “Alright, the matter of that day has been investigated, and indeed, it was the steward who had affronted you first, so my uncle didn’t really do anything.
Even my aunt was furious and wanted to catch that steward and give him a good lesson.”
Lin Yuan giggled, “Then can I count on you to handle this matter for , sister?”
Jin Yuyu gave her a reproachful look, “Are you questioning my abilities?”
Hearing her say this, Lin Yuan was reassured; with Jin Yuyu taking charge, settling the matter with Shande Hall would be a matter of minutes, wouldn’t it?
After expressing her imnse gratitude, Lin Yuan finally left with peace of mind.
After sending Lin Yuan away, Jin Yuyu turned around and looked at the golden words gleaming on the gate of her family’s ho, sighing involuntarily.
When would this house truly feel like a ho?
Old Lady Jin was deeply hurt by the sches of her personal maid; after all, Xiao Nini was her favorite among the few young maids, clever and good-looking, otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen her to be Boss’s concubine.
But why couldn’t this girl appreciate such a good arrangent?
After becoming a concubine and bearing a son, could she be worried about not having a good life in the future?
Mother Feng listened silently to the old lady’s complaints to her daughter, lowered her gaze, and handed over a cup of hot tea.
The old lady was truly muddled.
Which well-bred young lady wouldn’t hope to find a congenial man to love and live with for life?
Not to ntion being a concubine, even becoming a steward’s second wife would probably not sit well with Xiao Nini.
At their age, almost stepping into the grave, were they expected to remain widowed for the rest of their lives?
