Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money
Chapter 19: Slippery tongue, Yuxi worships the Buddha
The next day.
After exercising, Lin Yuxi went to pay her respects to the old lady.
As soon as Pu entered the room, he felt that the air pressure in the room was not right. He walked into the inner room and found that Aunt Zhou and Aunt Feng were also there.
The old lady looked gloomy.
Lin Yuxi was puzzled and respectfully greeted the old lady.
The old lady was very satisfied with the humble and polite Lin Yuxi, and couldn't help sighing in her heart.
She is just a concubine's daughter, she doesn't fight or compete with me, but I have been tortured by her for so many years and I still don't want to stop.
Now this has happened again, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell who is behind this. They really think that everyone is blind.
She could not tolerate illegitimate sons and daughters, and as long as it was not excessive, she would turn a blind eye.
She still wanted to give the Lin family's daughter to the Liu family as a concubine. Did she really think that the Lin family had no one left?
All she thinks about is herself and her daughter. She is selfish and this has become more and more obvious in recent years.
Mother Wang said a few words of comfort, and the old lady patted her hands.
Mother Wang was the old lady's wet nurse and also her dowry. The two had been together for decades and could often understand each other with just a glance.
The old lady waved to Lin Yuxi and asked her to sit next to her. Her expression softened a little:
"You are the most thoughtful person. You greet me, an old lady, every day."
Yu Xi hurriedly shook her head:
"It is only natural for a granddaughter to pay respects to her grandmother. I don't want to take credit for it. Besides, my grandmother doesn't look old at all. She looks like she is in her early twenties."
While saying this, he also took the opportunity to rub it a little. They say that hands are a woman's second face, which is absolutely true.
The old lady's skin is fair, tender and delicate, even on the back of her hands.
It was very smooth and tender. After touching it for a few times, Yuxi felt like her hand was insulting the other person, so she withdrew her hand awkwardly.
"You clever little devil, you sweet-mouthed one, did you eat honey this morning?"
The old lady's face had a faint blush and her eyes could not hide her smile.
Everyone likes to hear good words, and what she said was the truth.
The old lady's skin was indeed very good, as white and smooth as a freshly peeled egg, and she looked much younger.
The old lady was actually very beautiful, but I don’t know why she became a widow at such a young age and became an old lady. This may be the tragedy of women in ancient times.
"It's not that I drank and ate some honey."
Luyun on the side couldn't help but interrupt, and after he finished speaking, he covered his mouth and laughed softly.
Aunt Zhou and Aunt Feng also echoed a few words.
Yu Xi gave her a glare, then took out the prepared roll of paper from her sleeve:
"My eldest sister is going to get married in half a month. Yuxi is short of money and cannot afford to buy her good things as a dowry, so I copied a volume of the Great Compassion Mantra for her and planned to send it to a temple to receive incense for three days. So I am planning to go to Huiming Temple with my grandmother next time."
The old lady patted the back of her hand with relief:
"You are a caring person, and sincerity is more valuable than anything else. Fifteen, just follow me."
After talking for a while, Yuxi finally understood why Aunt Zhou and Aunt Feng came.
Most of the servants in the mansion are from the Liu family.
I'm afraid Liu has warned me not to disclose what happened yesterday. The wife and the concubine have always been enemies, so she came to complain.
Now that the old lady knew about it, she felt relieved.
No matter what, she still has the old lady as her support, so Liu dare not stretch her hand too far.
I had lunch on the tenth day.
Yuxi had just fallen asleep when the housekeeper came late.
The fabric of the clothes she wore was countless times better than Yuxi's.
Luyun Cuiping warmly invited her to sit down, but she didn't even look at them, and left after leaving two taels of silver.
Luyun was unhappy and went up to argue with the other person.
The housekeeper was Liu's person and was fearless. She had no respect for Yuxi, let alone a maid.
He slapped him immediately.
He cursed that this was the rule of the Lin Mansion, that only two taels of silver were allocated to concubines, and that if she had the ability, she could ask the mistress for it. He spat and left.
If Yuxi hadn't had sharp eyes, Luyun wouldn't have planned to tell her about the beating.
Seeing Yuxi crying, it was really too much. The second young lady of the Lin family only got two taels of silver as a monthly salary, and she was still treating it like a beggar.
Yu Xi was so angry that she poked her head and called her stupid. She knew that those people flattered the powerful and bullied the weak, but she still went to get beaten. She deserved it!
When beating a dog, one has to look at the owner first. Would she let it go so easily when her people were beaten?
impossible!
It was not known whether Liu had a change of heart or was just embarrassed, but in any case, in the following days, although she was still indifferent to her and ignored her every time she came to pay her respects, at least she didn't make things difficult for her.
But I did hear that she got very angry afterwards and smashed everything in the house.
She had seen those things, each of which was shining with gold. If they were sold, they would probably fetch a lot of silver.
Liu was also willing to give it up, but that was not something she could worry about.
By the way, the food has also improved. Usually there are three dishes, and you have to turn the plate over to find one or two pieces of minced meat.
Now there is a meat-loving girl. She loves meat, and Yuxi is very happy with this meat.
She was not a selfish person. She ate half of the meat and shared the other half with Lu Yun and the other two. This was considered sharing the joys and sorrows.
Without Liu's constant nitpicking, life was very carefree.
Not only was Lin Yuhe unable to swallow her anger afterwards, she also intimidated and threatened him every now and then.
But Yuxi is not afraid.
Let her bark as she wants, and as long as you don't do anything bad to her, she will basically ignore her.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it was the fifteenth day of the month. Yuxi got up half an hour earlier than usual to exercise.
Green Cloud must go with you.
Cuizhu and Cuiping stayed behind, and she reminded them to be careful with their words and actions when she was away, and to pay their respects to the old lady after breakfast.
When I entered the house, I found that Liu and two concubines were also there.
Yuxi greeted him politely.
Liu took the opportunity to teach her a lesson, telling her not to run around and to stay with the old lady.
If you lose your manners outside, you will lose the reputation of the Lin family.
Yu Xi sneered, is she a troublemaker?
He came here just to bring shame to the Lin family.
Yu Xi listened with one ear and let it out with the other, but her expression was that she was taking the instruction very seriously. She talked for a while and then set off at noon.
Sitting in the carriage, Yuxi felt a little excited.
This is the first time I've ridden in a carriage and the first time I've gone out.
She has been waiting for this day for a long time.
The excitement between Yuxi's eyebrows and the way she occasionally lifted a corner of the car curtain to look out, her eyes occasionally sparkling, and her brows occasionally frowning in thought, were all seen by the old lady, who smiled faintly with a bit of bitterness on her lips.
Huiming Temple is the most popular temple in Jiangzhou. The Lin family is in the west of Yingshan City, and Wan'an Temple is in Yu'e Mountain. It takes nearly two hours for the carriage to get there.
It was just past noon when we arrived.
Because the journey was quite far, the old lady would stay overnight in the temple every time, which was exactly what Yuxi wanted.
The old lady took Yuxi to worship all the Bodhisattvas enshrined in the temple.
Although Yuxi didn't believe it, she still knelt and kowtowed following the old lady.
They also gave the bamboo slips with the Great Compassion Mantra copied on them to the abbot, who burned incense and chanted sutras. After that, a young monk placed them in a room that had been prepared long ago to rest.
