Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money
Chapter 30: The prefecture sends a letter, Yuxi and Yuhe attend the meeting together
Fortunately, the rain had stopped by then, otherwise I would have gotten soaked.
When Yuxi entered the room, she found that the old lady was also there, talking to Mr. Lin. When she saw Yuxi coming, she smiled and waved to her.
Lin Yu was sitting next to the old lady. When he saw Yu Xi coming, he stuck out his tongue and made faces at her.
Seeing that the atmosphere didn't seem like someone was looking for trouble, Yuxi bowed.
Master Lin was delighted to see that her complexion had improved a lot, her eyes were bright, and she was no longer as timid as before.
He said a few words about taking good care of myself.
Yuxi agreed to all of them.
"Yuhan will be getting married in ten days. I am often away on business and rarely at home. Let's have a good meal together before Yuhan gets married."
After hearing what Master Lin said, Yuxi relaxed and sat quietly drinking tea.
Mr. Lin told some funny stories, which made others laugh.
Yuxi could see that Mr. Lin was in a good mood today.
As the family was talking, a servant came in:
"Sir, the prefect has sent a letter."
Everyone in the room was stunned and looked at each other. It was Master Lin who reacted first and hurriedly invited someone in.
The person who delivered the invitation was a servant, and the clothes he was wearing were much better than those of the servants in the Su Mansion.
He bowed respectfully to Mr. Lin and said:
"My second wife specially asked me to deliver a letter to your second young lady."
Then upload the post.
With just one sentence, everyone's eyes fell on Yuxi, and Yuxi was also stunned.
When did she meet the second wife of the prefect?
Although Jiangzhou is called a state, it is equivalent to a province in modern times.
Mingde City is the provincial capital, Yingshan City is a nearby small city, and the official in charge is called the prefect.
The prefect was in charge of the entire Jiangzhou, which was equivalent to the governor.
After Yu Xi came here, she knew only a handful of people and had only been out once. She really didn't know when she had offended the governor's wife.
Master Lin also glanced at Yuxi, then turned around and asked:
"I wonder what the Second Madam said?"
The servant shook his head. This was something the master had instructed him to do, so how could a servant dare to ask about it?
Mr. Lin said respectfully:
"Please tell the second lady that I will go there as scheduled."
After a few polite words, he took the reward and left.
Everyone in the room looked at Yuxi.
Some were doubtful, like Mr. Lin and the old lady, and some were jealous, like Liu's mother and daughter.
Mr. Lin handed the card to her. Yuxi took it. It was a brocade card. The noble status of the person could be seen from the card.
"When did you meet the Second Lady of Zhizhou?"
Mr. Lin was full of doubts and boldly thought about a possibility.
but…
It is unacceptable that this daughter has been locked up in the backyard for more than ten years and not allowed to go out.
"My daughter doesn't know."
Yu Xi shook her head. She really didn't know this Governor Laozi's wife, and she was also very curious about why she was asked to join her.
"You didn't offend the prefect's wife, did you? Now she's here to seek revenge. Dad, this is a big deal. Without her, she's dragging us down."
Lin Yuhe said this coldly, as if she was sure that she had done something wrong and would implicate her.
"What are you talking about, Third Sister? I stay at home every day and don't see any strangers. I can offend anyone but the wife of the prefect, let alone get involved in a crime."
What's more, if he really offended the other party, with the prefect's power and status, he could just arrest the person directly, instead of bothering to send a letter. Yu Xi had thought of this idea.
Not only Yuxi, but also the old lady and Mr. Lin thought of this.
But some people just don't want her to live in peace. Lin Yuhe snorted disdainfully:
"God knows, some people are born with a hard life, and good people will also be killed."
Lin Yuhe's words were obvious, implying that she had a tough life and had brought death to Concubine Song. The prefect's wife might have done that to her because of this.
Yu Xi rolled her eyes secretly. This was fabricated. If it was true, she would like to meet this fortune teller.
Mr. Lin frowned after hearing this.
Aunt Song was a pain in his heart, and she was talked about in public by a junior.
He glanced at Lin Yuhe with a hint of annoyance:
"Well, you will know what's going on when the time comes. Don't make random guesses. Officials have many rules. You must be careful and cautious in everything you say and do."
Mr. Lin couldn't help but feel a little worried. If the prefect sent a letter, it would not be a bad idea for him to go with him.
As it happened, the post was sent by the prefect's wife, which meant it was a female matter and it was not appropriate for him, a grown man, to interfere.
When Liu heard that the prefect's wife specifically sent the invitation to Yuxi, she was also surprised.
She didn't know when she caught the other person's eye, and he stared at Yuxi with even more jealousy.
If it was really as Lin Yuhe said, and she had offended the other party, it would be a good thing to use the other party to get rid of this bitch, but official affairs were not simple, and she had other plans.
But Liu had also seen the world, and she could see through the situation if she thought about it carefully, and she also saw Master Su's dissatisfaction.
Then he smiled and comforted:
"Master is right. The official residence is different from our own home. There are many rules and etiquette. Yuxi, you have rarely been out of the house. I will let Yuhe accompany you. You should learn the official etiquette from me in the next two days and don't be rude in front of the official's wife. Master, do you think this is feasible?"
Mr. Lin was very satisfied with Liu's thoughtfulness and nodded in agreement.
Lin Yuhe was extremely reluctant to hear this, as she didn't know if she would be punished as well if she went with her.
She bit her lip and wanted to refuse, but Liu gave her a warning look and she had no choice but to swallow it.
At the next meal, although everyone had their own thoughts, they enjoyed the meal together.
That morning, after Yuxi finished her exercise, Lvyun came to serve her.
Perhaps out of fear of being disrespectful, Fang had four new sets of clothes sent over.
There are two sets of summer and autumn clothes. The summer clothes are just right for wearing now. They are made of high-quality materials and fine workmanship. They are much better than the ones in her wardrobe.
After getting dressed and having breakfast, he went to Liu's room to listen to a lecture, repeatedly admonishing him to act with caution. If he did anything to damage the reputation of the Lin family, he would be punished according to the family rules when he returned.
Yuxi ignored Liu's words and they both got on the carriage and headed for Mingde City. The two cities were not too far apart and they arrived in an hour and a half.
Lin Yuhe was both excited and nervous.
She didn't want to go at first, fearing that Lin Yuxi would harm her.
But after Liu analyzed it for her, she began to feel a little yearning for it.
I don't know whether this trip is a blessing or a curse, but since I have sent the invitation, the situation will not be too bad. As long as I seize the opportunity and win the lady's favor, my status in the family will be higher.
The prefect's residence was connected to the government office, and it was a house with four entrances and exits.
The main gate of the government office is to the east, and the entrance to the mansion is to the south.
After the carriage stopped, Yuxi and Yuhe got off.
The prefectural government in front of us is surrounded by high walls, with a vermilion gate with flying eaves and brackets. Two majestic stone lions are crouching on the roadside. A golden gilt plaque is hung above the vermilion gate, reflecting a dazzling brilliance under the sunlight. The guards standing at the door have serious expressions.
