Chapter 341: Love in the Red Mansion is as Deep as the Sea 22
Lin Ruhai packed his luggage and moved all the bulky furniture to his old house in Suzhou.
He only took some books and personal belongings with him, and packed the rest and sent them by sea to the capital city under the escort of his housekeeper.
The lower the profile, the better. Everyone knows he has been in charge of the salt administration for many years. If he were to bring in so many things, people would think he had embezzled a lot of money.
These days, we don’t worry about thieves stealing, we only worry about thieves thinking about stealing. Lin Ruhai now creates the image of a scholar who works hard for his country.
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Lin Ruhai himself has to believe it first.
Now she and the emperor are in the honeymoon period and of course they are in love with each other. If the honeymoon period is over and the news reaches the emperor, Lin Ruhai will bring a lot of luggage in Yangzhou.
This will make people think too much, so don’t give your leader the opportunity to thorn your heart!
It is very difficult to pull out the thorns that have been planted. Lin Ruhai is a cautious person.
Think ten steps ahead, and this explains why Lin Ruhai is in poor health in the original novel. Excessive effort and wisdom can lead to harm.
Lin Ruhai and his family were on a government ship sailing along the canal. Along the riverbanks were the bustling life of the people. On the docks, there were vendors selling all sorts of food, drinks, and other things.
The cries of vendors echoed one after another: "Nian Gao! Ningbo's water-milled rice cakes, cut so beautifully that they're oozing with oil!"
Three-spice buns, hot three-spice buns!
Niupi candy, niupi candy, sweet and fragrant niupi candy, if it doesn’t taste good, I won’t charge you for it! …”
As soon as Lin Ruhai and his companions boarded the ship, the purchasing manager was surrounded by vendors: "Sir, you have worked hard. Take a look at the best Gaoyou salted duck eggs. They are free and don't ooze oil.
Look at mine, authentic braised old goose, it goes really well with rice!
I just picked this vegetable this morning and it still has water droplets on it. Would you like to have some?
Look at the shrimps I just caught, they are almost as big as my palm and are still alive and kicking!
I just slaughtered some pork this morning, it's still steaming hot, would you like some?"
Manager Xu was surrounded by people, all of whom knew that today was the day Master Lin was leaving office. Various vendors were waiting at the dock.
The master of the Lin Mansion and so many servants need to eat, so making this deal is a lucrative one.
Lin Daiyu found it amusing. She took off her cone hat and said to Madam Tao, "Madam, I find that sticky candy quite amusing. I've never eaten food from outside the mansion in my life."
Aunt Tao was in a dilemma: "The food sold outside by the young lady may not be clean. Manager Xu is buying vegetables for today's use.
I'll buy some of each for you to enjoy, young lady. You can share them with the little girls and give them some snacks."
Lin Daiyu also knew that Mammy was in a difficult situation: "Mammy, that's the best. I'm just looking at it. I promise I won't eat it."
Aunt Tao couldn't help but laugh. This kind of thing was not her business. She casually took out a piece of silver worth about two taels from her purse and called over a clever servant:
"Mammy has assigned you to do something. Have you seen the food being sold outside with this silver?
Buy a little of everything. Even though my grandma is old, she wants to try them all.
And those who sell small things, please buy some too. Mammy will give you the rest of the money as a reward."
The servant's eyebrows kept rising: "Madam Tao, please take a look, this is too much silver. Your silver is enough to buy their stall. Thank you, Madam Tao, for loving me."
Aunt Tao chuckled, "You're such a jerk! Get back to your work! You little monkey, your mouth is smeared with honey!"
Young people are quick on their feet. Soon the servant brought back a large pile of things. Several young men were holding a large pile of things in their arms and hanging them around their necks.
Of course, these servants couldn't enter the cabin, so Xueyan took a few little girls to take the things over.
The leading servant said hurriedly, "Why bother calling Sister Xueyan to pick me up? I'm here to greet you. Sister Xueyan is becoming more and more capable."
Xueyan pressed the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "No wonder Mammy said you have a sweet mouth, you are quite likable.
Take what the girls gave you and play with it, but don’t be naughty. The weather is getting colder and falling into the river is not a good idea!
The servant used his robe to hold the handful of money that Xueyan threw over. "Thank you for the gift, young lady! Thank you for the gift! I'll remember this and make sure I keep an eye on them and don't cause any trouble!"
The servant happily made his way down the gangplank to the servants' boat. He'd made a killing running around today. He'd left over seven hundred bucks.
This is more than a month's allowance. No wonder everyone wants to get close to the master. We are all servants too, so look at the status Sister Xueyan has.
There was a huge pile of food in front of Lin Daiyu, and the food was just so-so. Lin Daiyu took a look and let go, giving it all to the little maids.
There were just some little gadgets that she couldn't let go of, such as a pen holder carved from a whole bamboo and a round fan woven from bamboo silk.
A small windmill made of clay, a small basket woven from thin willow twigs...
Lin Daiyu thought it was cute no matter how she looked at it. She ordered, "Xueyan, open the silver box and take out five taels of silver. These little things are quite interesting.
Ask the servant to buy some more and take them to the capital so I can give them away as gifts!"
Aunt Tao was so happy that her eyes were all blossoming: "My dear girl, are you going to take over this person's stall?
We can buy several carts of these things with five taels of silver.
The nanny is in charge of this matter today. It's a rare occasion when the young lady is happy, so I'm here to join in the fun.
I don’t have to worry about food and clothing at home. My monthly allowance is almost moldy.
"Young lady, please do me a favor today and let this monthly allowance see the light of day!"
As she spoke, she couldn't help laughing. Lin Daiyu had long since lost control and fell into Qin Ma's arms, laughing breathlessly.
Nanny Qin scolded with a smile: "You old fool, you are always good at selling things! Look at how happy you are making the young lady, go quickly! If you don't buy the right thing later, I won't let you do it!"
So Lord Lin added half a cabin's worth of handicrafts to his bag. These things were very delicate and afraid of being squeezed or bumped.
Everyone was guarding these treasures carefully. If they damaged one of the girls and made them unhappy, they would definitely be punished by the two maids!
Riding a boat was quite boring, so Lin Daiyu and Lin Jinyu walked out of the cabin when there was no one on the shore.
Lin Ruhai looked at his two children, the three of them sitting on the deck around the stove making tea.
The meals were prepared by the chef in the mansion. The Lin family members all liked cleanliness, so they brought their own water for eating and drinking tea.
Whenever they docked, Manager Xu would go to the local area to buy dozens of barrels of mountain spring water for his master to cook and make tea.
The kitchen has been busy with river seafood these days, with all kinds of fish, shrimps and crabs being hung up and served in various shapes.
At noon today, Lin Daiyu and Lin Jinyu ate crab roe buns in Lin Ruhai's cabin.
Lin Daiyu had recovered a long time ago, and looking at the steamed buns as big as the steamer, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Daddy, you really make it difficult for the cook.
He cooks for so many people every day and still has the time to do such meticulous work.
It takes a lot of effort to dig out the crab roe! If I keep eating this every day, I’m afraid I’ll become fat as a ball!
