Lan Kexin found a seat and sat down at random.

Wait quietly for the old lady and others to speak.

The old lady's anger and resentment at this moment have not been suppressed yet.

Seeing Lan Kexin's face, her anger reached a new level.

Lan Weiwei carefully massaged the old lady's temples.

But his eyes were fixed on Lan Kexin.

"Sister, you are such a busy person now. Even father has to wait for you for most of the day."

Lan Kexin pretended not to understand what Lan Weiwei meant.

He tilted his head and asked with an ignorant look:

"So, what are you waiting for me to do?"

He glanced at the table next to him and found it was empty.

"There's nothing delicious. Could it be that you've felt guilty and feel sorry for me standing all day, so you want to give me something to comfort me?"

You also want to give her something, that's a nice idea.

Lan pouted slightly: "Sister, you are amazing! You can earn so much money in just a short time. I really admire you."

When talking about this topic, a sincere smile appeared on Lan Kexin's face.

"Well, so, I'm in a good mood today. Do you want to add icing on the cake and give me a small gift? If so, I will be even happier."

Looking at her granddaughter who was pretending to be crazy, the old lady did not speak. The Marquis' wife could only bite the bullet and say:

"Xin'er, you shouldn't ask them for help with something like today's."

Lan Kexin looked puzzled: "If I don't ask them for help, who else can I ask for help? I only have two hands."

Mrs. Lan spoke slowly:

"Mother meant that if something like this happens, we should look for our brothers and sisters. We are all family. How can we let outsiders take the money? This is really wrong."

Lan Kexin glanced at them all.

If we had asked a few of them to help, maybe the money would have flown away earlier.

Lan Weiwei and Lan Mufan both wished she would be in trouble.

How could I see her taking to the water like a duck to water.

However, she had been standing all day and was very tired, so she didn't want to argue with them.

She was more clever than ever:

"Okay, I understand. If I encounter something similar next time, I will definitely send someone back to look for them. Is there anything else? I want to go back to sleep."

How could so many people be waiting for her just to hear what she said?

Mrs. Lan looked around, but still no one was willing to speak.

She sighed softly, her voice becoming gentler and a hint of concern in her tone.

However, it was not out of concern for Lan Kexin, but for the silver.

"Xin'er, you live in that small courtyard now, and I'm afraid it's not safe to keep the money you have in Wutong Courtyard.

Therefore, mother and your father have agreed to put the silver in the treasury of the Marquis' Mansion. If you want to use it in the future, you can go there anytime and no one will stop you. "

How shameless.

She hadn't even warmed up the silver when they wanted to take it from her.

I never saw them care about her.

Today, he actually came to show his concern.

"No need. My Wutong Courtyard is quite safe. At least until now, nothing has been lost in Wutong Courtyard."

Now, not only the master, but also the maids and old women had their mouths twitching violently.

There was just a tattered table and old chairs in Wutong Courtyard.

Even if a thief gets in, I don’t know what he would steal.

Steal her table and use it for the fire?

Or he went to the room, stole the quilt and used it to wipe the floor.

Even if it could be useful, they still think it's too far away.

It’s a shame for a young lady to say that.

Madam Lan was displeased: “Xin’er, listen to your mother, we are all doing this for your own good, don’t wait until the silver is lost.

If you continue to cry and scream and ask the government to investigate, our mansion will not allow it."

Hearing this, Lan Kexin smiled.

I also understood the other meaning behind Mrs. Lan's words.

If this is not handed over, will someone steal it?

Lan Kexin said indifferently:

"It doesn't matter. There are only those old tables and chairs in the yard. Whoever wants them can carry them away. I'm really looking forward to them carrying them away."

This means they are unwilling to hand it over.

How could Lan Weiwei allow that?

She directly retorted:

"Didn't you take so much silver today?"

Lan Kexin looked as if she had suddenly understood something.

"Oh, so you are talking about the silver. Don't worry, it won't be lost at all."

Everyone was puzzled: "Do you still want to hire bodyguards in the yard?"

Lan Kexin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly seemed to understand something and explained with a smile:

"Haven't you heard such great news? I've divided up all the silver."

"Give it all away. There's so much, don't you want to keep any?"

Lan Weiwei couldn't believe it.

Lan Kexin shrugged indifferently.

"Yes, I divided it all up. The seven of them still thought that little bit of silver was not enough. I only kept a hundred taels of silver for myself in case of emergency.

Do I have to keep my one hundred taels of silver in the treasury?"

Lan Kexin looked at their darkened faces.

Very generously said:

"I don't mind. I'll just put the hundred taels in the warehouse. I can get it anytime I need it in the future."

How could Lan Weiwei possibly believe her nonsense?

"I don't believe you're willing to give them so much money?"

"Okay, if you don't believe me, go get them all here right now and I'll confront them face to face."

The old lady, who had been silent all this time, suddenly exploded.

"You rebellious girl, that's the Marquis's money, and you just gave it away like that? Have you asked us?"

Lan Kexin was puzzled. "That was written by me with my own hands, and earned by them with their sweat and sweat. How did it become the money of the Marquis' Mansion?"

"You are a descendant of the Marquis's Mansion, so why doesn't the money you earn belong to the Marquis' Mansion?"

Lan Kexin asked back: "Others also helped."

The old lady retorted, "They are just helping out, do they really need to get so much?"

Lan Kexin clapped her hands:

"There's nothing I can do. I'm a country girl, and in my mind, one hundred taels of silver is enough for me to live on for a year.

"Will I not be able to earn a hundred taels of silver in the next year? What do I need so much silver for?"

These words made everyone in the Marquis' Mansion very angry.

What do you need the money for?

Every place needs money.

Did she say that on purpose to irritate them?

They were all angry, but Lan Kexin was happy.

He suggested: "Sister, you have been well-read and learned all kinds of etiquette since you were young. Since you like silver so much.

You can also go to the teahouse to buy some and write couplets for others. You might earn more than me."

Was this meant to mock her?

Lan Weiwei couldn't bear it anymore.

"You're eating and drinking at the Marquis' Mansion, yet you don't even make a single contribution..."

"Oh, don't you eat and drink at the Marquis's mansion? Have you earned a penny for the Marquis's mansion?

In my impression, you have been constantly bringing shame to the Marquisate!"

Lan Weiwei was so angry that her eyes turned black.

Fall directly backwards.

Fortunately, Nanny Jin was nearby and quickly supported Lan Weiwei.

"Second Miss, Second Miss, are you okay?"

"Hurry up and ask the imperial physician to come, quickly..."
