Chapter 37: Hitting the face and posting a note

April 9, 2017Ai Hrist

After Xiao Wangfu (Mansion) sent back all the people that Lin Family had sent as part of Lin Chujius dowry. Lin Family sell those maidservants for a high price and sent the money to the Wangfu. Which clearly shows that they want to start a conflict.

After all, Lin Family is one of the people that is loyal to the emperor and the crown prince. And although Prince Xiao is his son-in-law, but he is on the opposite side. So, if they successfully made Xiao Wangfu look bad to the outsiders, then even the dogs that is under the emperor doesnt need to be afraid anymore.

Lin Family had said whatever they want to fight back, but

Xiao Tianyao didnt even put their actions in his eyes and just sent Housekeeper Cao to Lin Chujiu, so that she will deal with them on her own. Housekeeper Cao went to Lin Chujius courtyard and reported. The Prince had said: Whatever Lin Chujiu want to do with the Lin Family, benwang (I) will agree and wont intervene.

Obviously, he wanted to push everything to her. Lin Chujiu got angry and blurted out: Xiao Tianyao, you bastard. Obviously, you just want to put me in a difficult situation but do you need to make it sound like your concern?

Ahem Housekeeper Cao cough immediately to remind Lin Chujiu to lower her voice. If Prince Xiao learns what she had said, things wont turn out good.

Although Prince Xiao normally doesnt show any care to what ordinary people had said. But, once the Prince learn that there is something missing in their report. Prince Xiao will always remember it.

After all, their princes heart is only a little bigger than the needles hole.

Lin Chujiu understand what Housekeeper Cao meant. So, she obediently shut her mouth and no longer curse him. However, she didnt send him away and so Housekeeper Cao wait to hear her decisions.

Wangfei (Princess), what should we do regarding this matter? Lin Xiangs servant is still waiting outside. But, if wangfei doesnt mind, this servant think that we shouldnt accept those silvers. After all, if we accept them, the people will think that Wangfu is really insolent. And although no one would dare to stalk the Wangfu, there is still no guarantee that no one wouldnt be so stiff to try.

Accept them. Why should I refuse? Those maidservants are part of my dowry. So, those silvers are actually mine. Lin Chujiu said while showing a trace of murderous intent on her face. Housekeeper Cao felt dismay, but he still nodded his head.

He can say that their Princess is really unusual. So, he must be cautious not because Prince Xiao doesnt show any importance to her, but because he is neglecting her.

How much money did he bring? Lin Chujiu ask then sneer.

Housekeeper Cao involuntarily stands straight and respectful reply: one thousand liang.

Hmm, Lin family is so generous. Can you actually sell those maidservants with that price? Even if Lin Chujiu still doesnt understand much about how ancient market works, but she is sure that those people can only be sold by less than a thousand.

You cant sell maidservants with that price according to the law. But, the buyer and Lin Furen are familiar with each other. Housekeeper Cao said, so things got even more clear.

Lin Furen had sold those maidservants to someone shes familiar. So, those maidservants are still under her hands.

Lin Furen is really kind to send a thousand liang to buy a bunch of people that Xiao Wangfu doesnt need. Lin Chujiu said in mockery. But, pondered a moment and asked: If I want to post a note in the officials board, would that be okay?

Oh? Housekeeper Cao doesnt know why Lin Chujiu suddenly asked about the officials board so he got stunned for a moment: If it is important, then we just need to find a government officials to write and post it. After all, we cant just randomly post them.

So, we can post a note as long as a government official will write them. Then, ask them to make one and the content should be: Lin Familys influence is really amazing. They could even sell four maidservants for thousand liang. When Xiao Wangfu who is part of imperial family couldnt sell maidservants with such noble price. But because those maidservants contracts are not in my hands although they are part of my dowry. Lin Family easily sold them and sent the silvers to us. Lin Family has insisted that they wont go away until we accepted them, so Xiao Wangfu could only accept, thank and help the Lin Family use the money in the right and proper place.

Lin Chujiu was tapping her finger on the table while saying those words. However, she saw Housekeeper Cao so shocked, so she smile and said: Of course, we shouldnt be so straightforward when we write them. Just let the government official polish it so ordinary people could understand the note. After all, if they wont be able read and understand it, it will be boring.

This slave understand. Housekeeper Cao forcefully nodded his head and bow down. He didnt even dare to look at Lin Chujiu once again.
