Inside the Pear Fragrance Courtyard, Xue Yan had already led the maids and boys to clean up.
Seeing that Pear Fragrance Courtyard was spacious and clean, Lin Mo thought to himself that Madam Wang was really considerate of Aunt Xue, giving such a good place to the Xue family to live in. As the niece of Grandmother Jia, Daiyu had been living in that shabby closet, which was small and cramped.
However, I don't plan to stay here for long. That mother's boy has a big face. I can't blow him up or hit him. In the future, he will definitely come and harass Daiyu when he sees a sky-high price.
After Lin Mo and Daiyu had arranged their accommodations, Lin Mo said,""You've been tired from the journey these past few days, so I won't force you to train. It's getting late today, so you should rest early. You still have to pack your things and send gifts to the families tomorrow.”
Everyone went to sleep.
The next morning, before everyone woke up, they heard a commotion outside the door.
Lin Mo got up and put on his clothes, thinking that it was probably the big-faced treasure. When he walked to the door, he realized that it was indeed Baoyu who was shouting outside.
The servant boy was trying to persuade him, saying that the young master and the young lady had not woken up yet. Baoyu refused and insisted on barging in, while Xiren, who was beside him, tried to persuade and scold him.
Seeing this scene, Lin Mo thought to himself, No wonder Daiyu had been so depressed in the Jia residence. She even dared to talk nonsense about Xiren, a servant girl, let alone others.
"What are you arguing about?" Lin Mo asked with a darkened face.
Xiren and Baoyu saw the anger on Lin Mo's face and did not dare to say anything.
"Young Master, Second Master Bao wanted to come in. This one replied that Young Lady and Young Master had not woken up yet and asked him to come back later. This young lady first scolded this one and then scolded Second Master Bao.”The servant explained the matter clearly.
Lin Mo looked at Xiren coldly." I wonder where this big shot is from. Is he here to show off in front of the Matriarch's niece?”
Xiren blushed. She was used to being arrogant in front of Baoyu and had forgotten her identity for a moment.
"Young Master Lin, this servant wouldn't dare." Xiren mumbled.
Beside him, Baoyu was about to defend Xiren, but when he saw Lin Mo's cold gaze, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Lin Mo casually picked up a fallen leaf and quickly pinched it with his right hand. With a wave of his hand, the leaf disappeared into the trunk of the big tree. He asked calmly,""What's the matter?"
Seeing this, Baoyu was so scared that his legs went weak. Xiren's legs were also trembling. She forced herself to support Baoyu." I, we're fine…"
Lin Mo glanced at the path they had taken and snorted coldly.
Xiren held Baoyu and walked away trembling.
Daiyu also came over and saw Lin Mo standing alone at the door. She asked in confusion,"What happened just now?"
"There were two mad dogs just now, but I beat them up and they ran away," Lin Mo said casually.”
Daiyu was puzzled. Why would there be a mad dog in her grandmother's house? What were all the servants doing? However, seeing Lin Mo's unfathomable expression, she knew that she wouldn't be able to get anything out of him.
The servant beside him had a look of admiration. Sir System was too mighty.
(Lin Mo, Sir System will be mighty in the future.))
Lin Mo thought wretchedly. He wondered if the big-faced baby would wet his pants and if Xiren would do it with him in advance.
Seeing that Lin Mo's face had turned from unfathomable to wretched, Daiyu raised her hand to touch Lin Mo's forehead.
Lin Mo came back to his senses and slapped Daiyu's hand away." What?”
"To see if you have a fever early in the morning.”Daiyu smiled evilly.
Lin Mo's stomach grumbled at an inappropriate time. It seemed that no one invited us to eat. It seemed that your niece was not very popular.”
Unexpectedly, Grandmother Jia's dignity had been affected yesterday and she wanted to embarrass them today.
Daiyu and Lin Mo thought of this at the same time. They looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
" You," Lin Mo instructed the sharp-tongued servant," go out and pack some food. Make sure it's clean."”
He casually threw two taels of silver to the manservant.
The servant boy was really clever. He didn't need much effort to return with the food box.
There were eight kinds of porridge, steamed buns, biscuits, side dishes, pickles, and old tofu. They looked clean and fresh.
"Sir, this is the rest of the money." The servant handed Lin Mo two copper coins.
"I'll reward you. What's your name?”Lin Mo asked as he ate. There was something in his mouth, and his words were muffled.
"I'm Lin Xi, a family son. His parents had passed away long ago, and he grew up with his uncle, Lin Ping.”
"You can stay by my side in the future.”Lin Mo was right about this kid.
"Later on, you can go down and fork out some silver to buy more food for everyone to eat together?”
Lin Mo cursed in his heart. He was a thief if he didn't die. Even if I'm an outsider, I've already slapped your face yesterday. You're not looking out for the monk's face but looking out for the Buddha's face. Daiyu is your only daughter, your only daughter. How could you have the heart to not give her food on the first day you came?
After eating and cleaning himself up, Lin Mo let Daiyu and the servant girls walk around the courtyard. After about twenty to thirty minutes, he ordered everyone to pack up their gifts and go pay their respects to Grandmother Jia.
As soon as they entered Grandmother Jia's courtyard, they heard laughter and laughter coming from inside.
A little girl had already reported that Daiyu and Lin Mo had arrived.
Seeing Daiyu come to greet her with a smile, Grandmother Jia felt a little guilty. After all, Daiyu was her only niece, and Jia Min had died early. She should not have been unhappy and not passed her food.
Daiyu and Lin Moyi greeted the elders and asked Xueyan and the others to bring in gifts.
Daiyu smiled." Everyone is in the old ancestor's room, so I don't have to run away one by one."”
Seeing that Daiyu was smiling like a flower, Baoyu wanted to go up to her again. Lin Mo gave him a cold look, and Baoyu was so scared that he shivered and quickly retreated to the Grandmother Jia's side.
After the gifts were distributed, everyone sat down. Lin Mo stood up, took out some silver notes from his pocket, and walked forward." Matriarch, Father instructed me to give this to Matriarch before he left.”
Grandmother Jia motioned for Yuanyang to take it. When she opened it, it was 10,000 taels of silver.
"What is going on? My niece and nephew are staying here, and my son-in-law is giving me silver notes.”Grandmother Jia's face darkened.
Lin Mo cursed silently. What niece? Not giving her food on the first day? I'm still the one who's honest. After giving her money, it's easier to talk to her and do things.
"Matriarch, Father said that firstly, he can't be filial in front of you. Secondly, Younger Sister's diet is a little different and needs to be made by herself. She also needs to create a prescription, which will inevitably trouble the residence.”
Lin Mo stated his conditions clearly in one breath. Besides, he didn't plan to stay here for long, so there was no need for him and Daiyu to suffer.
Grandmother Jia sighed." I'll do as you say."”
After saying that, he let Lin Mo go back and make arrangements, leaving Daiyu behind to chat.
Lin Mo really didn't want Daiyu to stay, but he couldn't go too far. He could only glare at Baoyu and leave.
