After dinner, Lin Yanyan and his brother went to Ci'en Hall to visit their grandmother.

My grandmother is nothing serious, but after all, she vomits blood and still needs to be recuperated for a few days.

After saying a few words to my grandmother, Lin Yanyan stood up to say goodbye when he saw that his grandmother looked depressed.

Afterwards, Lin Jingyuan returned to Moyuan Pavilion to read books, and Lin Yanyan walked to Hancui Pavilion.

"Yan Yan, you're here. If you don't come again, I'll go to Moyuan Pavilion to find you again." Zhou sent all the servants out and pulled Lin Yanyan down.

"Aunt San has something to ask me for?"

Zhou sighed heavily: "When I was not in charge of the family, I always envied the one who was in charge of the family. Now I only know how difficult it is when I am in charge of the family, especially now, a bunch of messes that make me worried."

Lin Yanyan smiled. Aunt San was quite honest. Most people would definitely say... Oh, I really don't want to be the head of the family. How good is it to enjoy a peaceful life! I also reluctantly.

"If the third aunt is not good at using it, you can change it to another batch." Once the emperor is a minister, it is okay to keep it if you are obedient and capable. Those who rely on their old age to take a break or are still thinking of the old master, then they will change it.

"It's not a matter of manpower. I have rectified a batch today. The key is the problem of silver. Do you guess how much money is left in the account now?"

Lin Yanyan shook his head: "I can't guess."

Without guessing, I know that there must be not much money in the account. I was spent by Yao to my parents' home, and there was one million taels of seal money. If there was money, Yao would not let Liu Ma use antiques as an antique.

Zhou said angrily: "There is only 16,346 taels left in total. The old lady also handed over Zhenzhen's marriage to me, and said that she would do it with a decent amount. Just over 6,000 taels of silver. How can I do it with a decent amount? At that time, I will have to ask for a drink at least fifty or sixty tables! According to the current market, the status of the Hou Mansion will cost at least one hundred and fifty taels per table. With the cost of hiring a chef, the silver for rewards, and the money for the payment, this will cost tens of thousands of taels, and the dowry is not counted yet!"

"The second wife should prepare the dowry by herself!"

"The problem is that the second wife is not prepared for anything and doesn't even make wedding clothes. Your second aunt said that she only has a little jewelry left on hand, and she can't give it all to Zhenzhen. She wants to leave some for Pengpeng. She is now throwing her jar and not caring about anything. She knows that the Hou Mansion needs to be decent and cannot treat her daughter unfairly."

Zhou gritted his teeth in anger: "Everyone wants to be decent, but no one cares. Do you still want me to pay for money to marry someone else's daughter?"

"That's not. Sister Youyou has already been engaged and the marriage is coming soon. We must take care of Sister Youyou first."

Zhou was discouraged: "I really don't know what to do now, so I asked you to discuss it. Yan Yan, Aunt San can see that you are an idea, so please help Aunt San figure out a solution."

Lin Yanyan's idea of ​​the third aunt was that she would not want her to pay the money. She would definitely not pay the money, and she would not borrow it either. She said, "Zhenzhen is the daughter of the second wife after all, and the second wife should pay the marriage fee. If the second sister doesn't care, you can just ask my second uncle and show him the account and ask him what to do if the money is deficient. If he doesn't care, you will say that you go to the Yao family to ask for it. Otherwise, not only will the marriage not be done, but the whole family will not be able to live up to their lives. The second uncle is a shameless person, and he will find a way to solve it."

Zhou was moved and embarrassed: "Will this not be good?"

Yao's family fell completely, but Lin Zhongkun was still the backbone of the Hou's Mansion, and Zhou's family did not dare to challenge authority.

"If you can't hold this face down, I can't do anything. Either you pay for Zhenzhen to get a marriage. Aunt San, you have to be more arrogant, otherwise you won't be able to stop it."

Zhou hesitated and said, "Okay, I'll go find your second uncle later."

"There is another thing. Will you be at home tomorrow, will you be hired by the Duke of Jin? " Zhou knew that this request was a bit inappropriate, but when she was in charge of such a big event, she was the only one Yan Yan who could help her, so she could only speak up with shamelessness.

Lin Yanyan smiled: "Aunt San, if I'm here, I'm afraid the people from the Duke's Mansion will be embarrassed! If you need personnel, I can ask Li Ma to come and help. Li Ma has been following my grandmother over the years and has seen many big scenes."

She understood Aunt San’s difficulties, but she would not make things difficult for herself because of other people’s difficulties.

Zhou sighed: "Then please help Li Ma."

Xiao Qian's simple mansion and a small back garden.

Lu Zhaonan held the wine jar, his eyes were slightly drunk, and pointed to the wall with his tongue: "Listen... I heard that there was a haunted a few days ago, you...have you seen a ghost?"

Xiao Qian leisurely savored the new tea before the rain that Feng Linggang bought: "It's groundless, where does the ghosts come from in this world? The ghosts are all in people's hearts."

Lu Zhaonan shook his head: "You... don't believe in ghosts and gods. There are many mysterious things in this world. I advise you to sell this house quickly and replace it with a big one. If the money is not enough, I have it."

Xiao Qian looked at the wall, and there was an indescribable feeling in his deep eyes: "Thank you, I think it's good to live here. If a female ghost really comes to her, I'll invite her to drink under the moon."

If Tao Siyu's ghost comes to him, he will never ask for it.

Lu Zhaonan laughed: "Do you envy the scholars in "Ghost and Fox Records" and want to have a romantic encounter?"

Xiao Qian glanced at him sideways and said, "I am not as idle as you. Don't drink this jar of wine after you drink it. You have drunk all the wine in my house."

Lu Zhaonan rolled his eyes arrogantly: "Stingy."

The wind blew, and the shadow of a ginkgo tree beside the wall shaking, making a rustling sound, something jumped out of the shadow and disappeared.

Just as Lu Zhaonan saw it, Lu Zhaonan shouted excitedly: "Ghost, I saw ghost, Xiao Qian, wait, I'll catch the ghost for you and let her drink with you..."

Lu Zhaonan held the wine pot and staggered towards the wall.

"Be careful of the pond." As soon as Xiao Qian finished speaking, he heard a thud, and Lu Zhaonan had already fallen into a small pond.

Xiao Qian covered his eyes, this unlucky person.

"Where are ghosts?" Lu Zhaonan flapped a few times and stood in the pool, with a few aquatic plants on his head, looking for female ghosts in the pool water.

"Come up."

"No, I want to catch the ghosts for you." Lu Zhaonan began to get drunk and touched the pool.

Xiao Qian sighed helplessly and went down to catch people.

"Don't pull me, I haven't found the ghost yet..."

"The ghost was scared away by you."

"Scared away? No, I'm so handsome..."

"Because the ghost found that there was an unlucky person here, she ran away if she didn't want to be unlucky."

Lu Zhaonan pointed at Xiao Qian and smiled foolishly: "I understand, this unlucky guy is you."

Xiao Qian lost his temper, who can still argue with a drunkard?

"Yes, I'm a bad guy, I shouldn't have taken you in. I have to go into the water to catch people in the middle of the night."

Xiao Qian helped the man into the house, put it on the bed, ordered Feng Ling to take out all his clean clothes and take off Lu Zhaonan's clothes by himself.

"Don't take off my clothes. I warn you, who dares to take off my clothes? When my brother comes, I will definitely take off your skin..." Lu Zhaonan said nonsense drunk.

Xiao Qian: "Stop making trouble, be careful to catch a cold later."

After Zhou Datong returned home, he thought that Lu Zhaonan and Xiao Qian were drinking wine comfortably, so he couldn't sit still and sneaked out. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Xiao Qian riding on Lu Zhaonan and pulling Lu Zhaonan's clothes.

Zhou Datong was in a mess in the wind and turned around and ran away.

What did he see? Will there be needle holes tomorrow?
