Chapter 222 I Can't Let The Children Go

My own business can collect 6000 taels, and I can take out 1000 taels in my own hands.

Based on the starting price of 5000 taels, she only needs to make up another 8000 taels.

But to operate a store that requires a large stock of goods, there is also the expense of a garment workshop.

She should ask her mother to get 1 taels first.

and also……

She dragged a small box from under the bed.

Take out a large stack of drawings inside.

There are ready-to-wear styles accumulated half a year ago.

How these styles are divided into winter, summer or spring and autumn styles is left to the master tailor to arrange.

She checked the drawings again herself, there were 24 in total.

"I still have a lot at my place, just bring some here for you to use, and there are a few square inkstones inside."

"You don't have to worry about pick-up or drop-off. Nanny is in the mansion. You can pick it up when you are free."

Just like many wives in charge have some pearls, silver clasps, silver pancakes, silver bracelets and collars in their hands.

"I have taught them to read and write in my free time. Although they are not as good as children, they will not be blind."

But Mother Lin was worried about being criticized by others, and she didn't want to.

"If we start this way, other families will soon want to send the girl over."

"After all, Mrs. Uncle gave her dignity, and others cannot envy her."

Of course, it's not for your own use, but for rewards, social red envelopes and so on.

"Even on the concubine's side, there may be relatives from the natal family who want to take advantage of this convenience."

The two women sitting in the carriage quickly came out with baskets.

"Grandpa Lin, where is Uncle Sheng Jun?" Lu Weiyu jumped out of the carriage with a smile, and Jixiang hurried to get the horse stool.

"It's just that I don't want my brothers to think that things that don't cost me here can be wasted casually, and that will teach them badly."

This explanation is more convincing than her father suddenly sending her several carts of pens, ink, paper, inkstones, drawing paper and paint.

Old man Lin glanced at the pen and ink in the basket, and spoke in surprise.

Seeing the old man's hearty smile, and Lin Cui who was holding a pastry to feed grandpa, Lu Weiyu was also very relieved.

Lin Shengjun was not at home, but old man Lin saw the eldest lady driving the car at home, and came up to him dumbfounded.

"24 patterns of ready-to-wear styles, 1000 sets of jewelry patterns, and [-] taels of silver."

"You don't have to think how hard he is, this is also a good opportunity for him to go out and practice."

At that time, Lu Weiyu went to Chunhua Hall to accompany his mother for dinner, and got back 1 taels of silver ticket after the meal.

"I don't eat, there are some at home, you can eat by yourself." Lu Weiyu smiled and thanked.

"Thank you, Grandpa Lin, for your reminder. I really didn't think about it so much. The little sisters in the concubine's house are pretty good, but it's our side..."

"If even the ladies of the uncle's mansion study, our family will be honored, and it will inevitably be criticized."

"After all, there are concubines in the uncle's residence, and there are so many families in the clan."

Lu Weiyu changed his words and said again.

"Therefore, I didn't send a large amount. If someone comes to me and asks for some, I will still give it."

"Therefore, I cannot let the children go."

Nanny Lin's family lived in the big house in Mrs. Lu's dowry property, it was in the alley diagonally opposite the uncle's mansion, it was not too far to walk, but there were two baskets, so Lu Weiyu chose to drive a carriage.

"Thank you for your kindness, miss. I heard the old lady mention the fact that my uncle opened a school in Zhufengxuan during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I know the whole story."

Old man Lin glanced at the basket that was carried out, and looked at Lu Weiyu with some puzzlement.

Mrs. Lu asked Lu Weiyu to ask Grandpa Lin and Lin Shengjun for their opinions.

Old man Lin laughed loudly after hearing this, and said indifferently: "You don't have to worry about them."

After the two baskets were lifted down, he said, "This basket is full of paper and pens in stock in our yard."

"Hey, it's not far away, I'll come and play." Lu Weiyu smiled nonchalantly.

She picked out the 1000 taels of gold leaves and replaced them with the silver ingots in the monthly case.

It turned out that Aunt Hong from Lin Shenghua's family had gone to the workshop at the moment and was not at home.

After breakfast the next day, she and Jixiang dressed up as teenagers again, and took two women with them, drove a carriage and went out through the side door.

Lin Xia also took a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus shortbread and handed it to Lu Weiyu.

"Last time, the brothers and three cousins ​​in the Xifu asked me for it. The eldest cousin also asked me to take two good inkstones and left."

"In the end, more and more people will be sent in, and it will inevitably be a heavy load. If the tail is too big to drop, it will be difficult to return, and it will become a drag on the uncle's house."

"Do you want to send their sisters there too?"

"Well, it doesn't matter if you don't go, Xia'er and Cui'er also have companions at home, if you want to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you should start by reading and practicing calligraphy."

He took out the rest of his savings.

Old man Lin didn't reach out his hand.

As companions, they are already very loyal, and these words are definitely for the sake of their mother.

Lu Weiyu opened the bag face to face, and briefly showed the contents inside to old man Lin.

After thinking about it, he asked Liu'er and Jixiang to prepare a lot of pens, ink and paper, and filled two baskets.

"Maybe there will be people like this in the future, but it must not be our family, otherwise it will make it difficult for your mother."

In order to prevent others from criticizing her for treating the concubine daughter harshly.

Old man Lin's words left Lu Weiyu speechless.

Lin Shengjun's nine-year-old daughter, Lin Xia, brought Lin Shenghua's four-year-old daughter, Lin Cui, also bouncing over to greet Lu Weiyu.

Lin Xia smiled embarrassedly.

Then she just wanted to make it easier for Lin Xia and Lin Cui to learn and make some friends of similar age.

After drinking a cup of tea and putting down the cup, Ruyi asked Ruyi to bring the small burden.

"Yeah, I can't sit for that long, at most half an hour, I will run to play with my sister for a while."

In fact, it is causing trouble for the mother.

"Why did you come here by yourself? If you have something to explain, just send someone over to talk about it."

"We are the generals of the Lin family and your mother's subordinates. We are more happy to be reused than to be idle here with nothing to do."

After all, it involves your own business opportunities and silver, and since it has been in the hands of the old man, of course he must be counted.

His painstaking efforts were still Lu Qianqian.

"How can you move the things you use to us, and how can you still have a lot? I'm afraid you didn't buy them."

Lin Shengjun's daughter-in-law Lin Yueshi has already served tea.

She and Ji Xiang dressed up as teenagers, and drove the carriage slowly to Nanny Lin's house without using the coachman.

"Uncle Shenghua has been away for a long time because of my affairs, and I can't get home for a long time, so I feel very sorry."

"I really didn't buy it now, it was..."

"As your mother's accompanying room, our family has won your trust and reuse, and we have gained a lot of benefits on weekdays."

"I heard that you are learning how to embroider. You should allocate your time well and don't embroider for a long time. Be careful with your eyes."

Kindness, worth more than the value of these things.

Lu Weiyu was afraid that Grandpa Lin would not accept him, so he hurriedly explained the situation in general.

There are also some opportunities to be hasty, just remove jade bracelets, gold bracelets, beads, etc. from your wrists and stuff them into other people's hands.

"On the surface, it is for convenience and gain, but in reality, I am afraid that I still want to build a relationship with the uncle's house."

The Lin family felt that it was good to be satisfied with such a life.

"It's not that my father was afraid that I would be useless, but arranged some for me so that it would be convenient for me to give away."

The two little girls quickly thanked them and happily took them.

Lu Weiyu roughly talked about the fact that her father gave her many pens, inks, paper inkstones, drawing paper and paints in Xia Tian.

When drinking tea in the living room, Lu Weiyu looked at the two little girls who were close to him, and suddenly spoke.

Lu Weiyu also mentioned this when she was having dinner with her mother last night.

"Just be careful if you know it." Lu Weiyu smiled and talked with the little sister for a while.

"Then I'll accept it. You go to the house to drink tea, and I'll send someone to call you Uncle Shengjun back."

"After all, I am in charge of the family now, and I am also close to the brothers and sisters in the clan."

But he is an old accountant, so naturally these things are clear at first glance, and he nodded with a smile.

According to the different value of the object, it is the value of the gift.

"Grandpa Lin, the things in this bag are for Uncle Sheng Jun, and they are what he needs to help me set up a shop recently."

After explaining things clearly, Lu Weiyu took his leave and left.

In other words, these things were arranged for her, and they were originally given away.

"Grandpa Lin, from the first day of next month, the mansion opened a small school for the sisters and invited female masters. They mainly learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and also teach some books and rules."

"You can just invite a female teacher to come. Shu Xiu will be counted on Uncle Shenghua's account, and my shop will settle the bill."

"Your Uncle Shenghua can be reused by you, he is very happy."

It is the sweet-scented osmanthus shortbread that Ruyi made today, and it is still slightly steaming.

Seeing that the child had explained it so carefully, old man Lin didn't refuse any more.

"He went to look at the shops for you. I heard that there are a few good locations. I'm going to choose."

Of course, the eldest lady in charge doesn't need to be equipped with these vulgar things. It is still possible to prepare some juanhua, pearl flowers, hair masks, pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

Otherwise, if the child comes to give you a gift, but you insist on not accepting it, will it embarrass the child?
Besides, this little thing is nothing to the uncle's house, but the child warmly sent it over, it was kindness to his family.

Not counting the monthly case, since the last time I took out 9000 taels, I sold two paintings and exchanged them for cash, leaving exactly 54 taels.

There are twelve more designs of jewelry, there are two sets of complete jewelry, and the remaining ten are single jewelry.

To know the whole thing, my mother avoided interfering in it because of inconvenience.

The purpose of the father's small school is not to bring all the unmarried girls of the relatives together to learn talents.

After hearing Lu Weiyu's proposal, Old Man Lin hesitated for a moment before shaking his head.

In addition to the banknotes, they were all packed in a purse, and they were packed together with all the papers into a small package.

Looking at the two little girls, Lu Weiyu remembered, and asked Jixiang to take out the small bamboo basket from the carriage.

Old man Lin smiled.

At the end of the month, Mother Lin went back and brought back news.

The shop has already been sold, and the location is not bad at the corner of the second street in the east of the city.

It was originally a two-storey tea house with six shops and its own pastry workshop. The backyard also has three entrances and four corners on both sides. The layout is very good.

The son of the former shop owner was addicted to gambling and owed money, and he was chased for debts, and his family was wiped out.

The original shop owner was afraid that his son would be called to the casino by his friends again, so he decided to sell the shop and return home.
