A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!
Chapter 114 I've Never Seen It Before
When Lin Yanniang took her daughter on the carriage to visit Ding's house, she was actually a little excited.
As the third wife in the Duke's Mansion, she had naturally been to other palaces for banquets many times over the years, but she had always gone with her sisters-in-law from the first and second wives.
The eldest sister-in-law has a high status, and the second sister-in-law has a wide network of contacts, so she seems to be just a foil.
Later, she used worrying about her child's illness as an excuse to postpone these occasions whenever possible.
In the past two days, she received a gift from her biological mother, and heard that her biological mother was doing well. She gave half of the spiritual liquid to her son, but he did not have any bad reactions.
So now Hu Ge'er has started drinking a whole bottle every day.
Now that the Ding family has given her a personal invitation, she is naturally happy to be on good terms with the Ding family.
Although her title of the third wife of the Duke's Mansion sounds good, her husband has no official position. Even the shops of the Duke's Mansion were only given to He Lao San with two small ones, and most of them were managed by the wives of the first and second wives... In short, the third wife is a cold shoulder in the Duke's Mansion, and the Ding family can interact with her naturally because of Madam Su's face.
As soon as Lin Yanniang and her daughter walked out of the gate of the Duke's Mansion, the first and second wives received the news.
The first wife was surprised. "The Ding family? Although they are from the same hometown, we haven't had any contact in these years. Why did they invite her now?"
The second wife clutched her handkerchief, feeling somewhat jealous.
"What did the Ding family hire her for? She's just a gourd with a sawed mouth!"
Then I thought of the Ding family's extensive network of contacts. Apart from anything else, just in terms of hiring famous teachers for the children, the Duke's Mansion could never compare.
For example, she has two biological sons. The eldest is already disabled, and the second is just over ten years old. He fights and makes trouble every day in the clan school. How can he learn anything serious? She wants to hire a good and experienced teacher, but she can't find a suitable person.
Any teacher with some ability would immediately shake his head and decline the offer when he heard that it was the young master of the Duke's Mansion.
As for those better academies, one has to take exams to get in.
But if her second child can pass the exam, does she still need to worry?
This sister-in-law of the third brother got involved with the Ding family behind her back for some reason, but she said nothing and didn't even bother to say hello to her. She's really cunning!
Dongcheng, Shengfu Inn.
In room number one, there are two rooms, a bright room and a dark room.
At this moment, a table of vegetarian food was set out in the outer room.
There were only two people sitting at the table.
One was a plump, white, middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe.
Isn’t the other one Lin Lao Er who came to the capital to do errands for his stepmother?
Although the middle-aged man had just recovered from a serious illness, his eyes were bright and he looked very energetic. He kept raising his glass to toast Lin Lao Er.
"Mr. Lin, this is just a drink, not wine. It's okay to drink more."
"Also, I have inquired about it. Young Master Lin is in mourning now. I just had a stomachache, so I asked them to specially arrange a vegetarian meal."
The table was full of chicken, duck, fish, seafood and mountain delicacies, but unfortunately they were all vegetarian! They looked good and tasted good, but vegetarian is vegetarian. When you eat it, it doesn’t satisfy your appetite!
But Lin Lao Er couldn't say that he didn't want to observe mourning and he also wanted to eat real meat and fish!
"Master Qian Liu is thoughtful!"
This extremely wealthy businessman from outside the Great Wall has been living in this inn for nearly half a month.
I've been living here for less than half a month and I've had diarrhea for ten days!
That was so miserable!
I heard that several famous doctors from nearby were called in, but for some reason, the medicine didn’t work, or it only worked for half a day, and as soon as I ate again, I would have diarrhea again.
Lin Laoer is such a smart guy!
He immediately took out an anti-diarrhea pill given by the old lady.
What's more, he can't do it himself. After all, he is the second son of the Earl's Mansion. How can he do such door-to-door sales? He is not a sorcerer!
He handed it to his long-time attendant Lin Xing.
Lin Xing was quite clever. He pretended to meet Qian Liuye's servant by chance and got to know him.
He simply said that his master had an anti-diarrhea medicine that worked every time. He heard that Mr. Qian Liu's illness had not been cured for a long time, so he stole a pill of the medicine and wanted to sell it to the servant, fifty taels of silver per pill, no bargaining!
It's no wonder that Mr. Qian Liu is a rich man. Even the servant beside him didn't doubt it after hearing it. He directly took out a hundred taels and asked Lin Xing to open another one. He wanted it!
So, at that time, Mrs. Su prepared ten pills for him. He took two pills on the way and gave Lin Xing one pill. So there were seven pills left, right? He gave Lin Xing two pills, and Lin Xing made this profitable business.
Hey, Mr. Qian Liu, he’s fully recovered in just two days, right?
Not only did he recover, but he also tried every means to make friends with him and even secretly bought his medicine for the Qian family's servant as an atonement!
Why are we inviting him to a feast in this room?
How could he not know?
What is the thing that a wealthy man like this, who travels all over the country, fears the most?
Just cherish your life!
After personally experiencing the effectiveness of this miraculous medicine, how could he not be itching to take it?
Couldn't he not beg Lin Lao Er to sell the medicine to him?
"Mr. Lin, even though it was an accident, your elixir...really saved my life!"
"Hahaha, yes, it's just a coincidence. It turns out that Mr. Qian Liu is very lucky and has a good life. God blesses him!"
One of them tries to steer the conversation towards the elixir, while the other one, knowing clearly what the other person means, insists on rambling and not getting to the point.
Lin Lao Er has never been so proud in his life!
How sad! Thinking about it, he was so proud because of his stepmother whom he never took seriously before. Besides, this time he went to the capital to visit his elder sister, but after the mourning period was over, his elder sister could go back to Tongcheng and his stepmother could also come to the capital. Why would they need him as a middleman?
Therefore, if he fails to please the old lady in the future, he will never have this honor again!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become more reserved.
Even if he wants to make a fortune, he has to make a big one!
Tongcheng South City, Ding Mansion.
Lin Yanniang and Shan Jie'er, led by Madam He and Cheng Ge'er, along with a dozen maids and old women, came to the small garden of the Ding Mansion.
This small garden is naturally not as big as the He Mansion Garden.
But this little garden is also exquisite and lovely in its own way.
Moreover, this garden is completely managed by Mrs. He. Even if Mrs. He wants to plant peonies today or peach trees tomorrow, she can plant them as she pleases and cut them as she pleases.
But the point is not who is in charge of the garden, but...
Lin Yanniang looked at the two small fruit trees surrounded by a fence.
This fruit tree is more than half a person's height and is supported by a long stick. It has lush green leaves, and among the leaves are clusters of red and green fruits.
Lin Yanniang was stunned.
"This, is this a fairy fruit?"
He couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed, "I've never seen it before either."
When they arrived at the Ding Mansion, after exchanging pleasantries, they talked a few more words and only then did they realize that Mrs. He had invited them, mother and daughter, to enjoy the fairy fruit!
And these fairy fruits were fresh fruits grown by her own mother, Old Madam Su, on the farm. Because Madam He brought the young master to express her gratitude, Madam Su gave two fairy fruits to the young master to play with.
In fact, Madam He and her companions returned to the capital at the same time as Lin Lao Er and Madam Jiao.
But she could understand why her mother gave the fairy fruit to the young master of the Ding family but not to her.
These two fairy fruits were transported from Tongcheng to the capital, and they are still alive and well, and the fruits are ripe on time. It sounds like a simple matter, but how much manpower and resources actually cost!
As for Lin Lao Er and Madam Jiao, they only had a carriage with a few people, so they really didn't have the energy to deliver such flashy fruits.
Besides, everyone in the Heguogong Mansion is snobbish. If it is a princess or a royal family, even if they send a handful of green vegetables, they will praise them as magical vegetables from the fairyland. If it is an old lady from a declining baron's mansion in a small place, even if they send a fairy fruit, they will pinch their noses and look down on it, saying it is a worthless wild thing!
