Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money

The next day, when Lin Yuxi paid her respects to the old lady, Liu and Lin Yuhe were there for the first time, but they looked at her with unfriendly eyes.

Lin Yuxi didn't care about their disapproval and bowed respectfully to the old lady. The old lady nodded with satisfaction and smiled very kindly.

In fact, the old lady was extremely beautiful, as bright as the autumn moon. She was a widow and devoted to Buddhism. She did not dress as obviously as Liu, with a little makeup on, but her charm could not be concealed. Her pure and elegant appearance was even more intriguing.

If the old lady remarried, there would definitely be many people willing to fight for it.

Suddenly, Lin Yuxi was very curious. The old lady was close in age to Mr. Lin, and Mr. Lin was also a generation older than her. The old lady was his daughter, and he actually married her as his second wife. Mr. Lin also really respected the old lady. And what about the incident at Wan'an Temple? Who did the old lady wait for for more than ten years?

Lin Yuxi intuitively felt that there must be a story behind this.

The old lady really liked Lin Yuxi and was happy that she had found a good marriage. She smiled and asked, "Your status is different now. There are only three maids coming and going in your house. It is inevitable that many things will be missed. Don't rush back today. The maid will be here soon. You can also choose a few servants."

The old lady naturally also heard about Mother Han's affairs. She glanced at Liu and Lin Yuhe with dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Lin Yuxi originally wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that Cuizhu was now helping her run the shop, so it would be necessary to bring a senior maid and a second-class maid with her when she went out of the garden. There would be no one to look after the garden, so it was time to add a few more people. So she happily agreed.

Liu on the other end was extremely upset. No matter how different her status was, she was just a concubine's daughter, or to put it nicely, a mistress. As long as she wasn't married, she was in her hands. Now the old lady ignored her status and went beyond her to interfere in Lin Yuxi's affairs in the room. Wasn't this a slap in her face?

Thinking of this, Liu smiled and said, "Yes, Yuxi is now of noble status. Don't forget to help your parents' family when you marry into a rich family. With Yuxi's cleverness and ability, she will definitely be liked by her husband's family. The old lady can rest assured."

The old lady frowned, and felt that these words sounded sour. She did not respond to Liu's words, but chatted with Lin Yuxi for a while, all about how the dowry was being embroidered and how it had to be prepared as soon as possible.

Lin Yuxi's forehead throbbed when she heard this. Please! Don't act like she's about to get married. It makes her feel uneasy!

Everyone agreed to this, and Liu couldn't listen any more, so she said, "This is a wealthy family, and the daughters-in-law they choose are all ladies from noble families. The second lady has good taste and chose Yuxi at first sight. This is also her blessing."

Liu's words reminded the old lady that a lady from a noble family should be proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Lin Yuxi...

The old lady also sighed. She was good at calligraphy, but not the other three. Liu brought it up now just to mock Lin Yuxi and the old lady. A concubine's daughter who was not presentable thought that she could become a phoenix by climbing up the ladder.

The other one was satirizing the old lady for not being able to distinguish between the primary and the secondary. She didn't help Lin Yuhe, the legitimate daughter, but helped a concubine's daughter. She thought a pheasant was a phoenix, and nothing she did could change her lowly origin. She completely forgot that she was the culprit.

Lin Yuxi sat there calmly sipping her tea, as if what Liu was talking about was not her and she treated her as if she was farting the whole time. That was right, what good words could Liu say? Arguing with her would only make her lose her class.

Lu Yun was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. Her daughter couldn't do it, so could the third daughter know how to do it? Her daughter knew a lot of things. She could make hamburgers, salad dressing, and ice cream. Could the third daughter know how to do it?

How could the old lady not hear Liu's little trick? Without responding to her, Liu thought she had hit the opponent's weak spot, and became even more unscrupulous. "Although Yuhe's piano and painting skills are not top-notch, they are not bad at all. Why not let Yuhe teach Yuxi? This way, she won't lose face for the Lin family after she gets married."

Lin Yuxi took a sip of tea with a smile on her face. So this was what Liu was planning. But she was not in a hurry. Should she let Lin Yuhe teach her? The old lady would never agree.

Sure enough, the old lady glared at her and said something with some disdain: "The master went to the Wen Mansion today, probably because of Yuhe's matter. How can she have time to teach Yuxi those things now? I should have embroidered my dowry earlier. Master Ling is my old friend. It's enough for her to teach Yuxi."

Lin Yuxi blinked her eyes. Master Ling? Who is he? But since the old lady had asked him to teach her, he must be very good. But to be honest, the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting may not be worth mentioning in modern times, but they were very important in ancient times, especially for those wealthy families. They would choose their daughters-in-law according to these standards.

She wants to marry into an official family, so there is nothing wrong with learning these things, but it will make her suffer. I don't know why the second lady likes her.

Liu's face darkened when she heard this. The reason why she brought Lin Yuhe here to pay her respects today was because of this matter. What could Master Lin have to do in Wen's house?

It was all because of the matter between Yuhe and Wen Yanqing. How could such a bastard be worthy of Yuhe? And she remembered clearly the embarrassment that the Wen family had given her before. Every time she thought of it, she wished she could skin the entire Wen family alive.

No matter what, she would never agree to this marriage, but she didn't dare to openly resist Master Lin's words, so she brought Yuhe to pay her respects, hoping that the old lady would say a few words for her.

Unexpectedly, she offended the old lady again when she opened her mouth. Liu rolled her eyes and glared at Lin Yuxi. It was all her fault. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have said those words. She was really a jinx. Nothing good would happen when she was around.

Liu opened her mouth and was about to say something else, when a little maid came in and reported: "Madam, Aunt Wu is waiting outside."

Hearing this, the old lady put her thoughts aside, glared at Liu, helped Wang Mama get down from the couch, and walked out. Liu, Lin Yuxi, and Lin Yuhe all followed the old lady out.

There were already thirty or forty girls standing in the outer courtyard. Standing in the front was a forty-year-old woman, wearing a summer silk bodice with a pattern of red crabapples and roses, and a dark red skirt. She had a half-fan bun on her head and a pair of silver-covered gold hairpins. Her eyes moved flexibly and her lips were thin. It was obvious that she had been bumping into people too many times. As soon as she saw the old lady, she came up to her, smiled and saluted, and said, "Old lady, I haven't seen you for a while. You look good. I guess your daughter-in-law and granddaughter are filial to you."
