“Then mother, what do you want to do?” she asked Old Madam Lin. She was already cursing in her heart.
“Of course it’s to let me and your father move to the Liu residence.” Old Madam Lin said in a deep voice. She said as if her request was very reasonable.
The house they were living in was dilapidated and not as good as the Liu residence.
Moreover, there were servants in the Liu residence.
Lin Lanhua almost rolled her eyes in anger.
“Mother, you…” If it wasn’t for the fact that she couldn’t offend this old woman now, she would have slapped her.
What was she thinking? Lin Xiaoyue wasn’t that stupid.
“Do you think this request is too much?” No matter how stupid Old Madam Lin was, she could read Lin Lanhua’s expression.
Lin Lanhua:”…”
“Mother, although the Liu residence is better than home. But it’s not home after all.”
“Also, the servants are all snobbish. Even if you live there, if they neglect you, you will not be comfortable staying there.” As she spoke, Lin Lanhua grabbed Old Madam Lin’s arm.
“Why don’t we be more practical?”
Old Madam Lin’s expression changed.
She recalled what her daughter told her just now. She had to spend money to win over the servants of wealthy families.
She didn’t want to go to the Liu residence anymore.
She was still short of money, so she had no money to give to others.
“Like what?” She asked Lin Lanhua.
Only then did Lin Lanhua heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, she despised Old Madam Lin even more.
She was too easy to fool…
“Ask for money, of course!” Lin Lanhua said.
The moment she heard the word “money”, her eyes lit up.
“If this matter succeeds, First Young Master will give Xioayue 1,000 taels. Then, just ask her to give some to you as a thank-you fee.”
“This way, you will be able to help the First Young Master and earn some money.”
A hint of excitement flashed across Old Madam Lin’s eyes.
“Then how much should I ask for?” She asked hurriedly.
“Well…at least 100 taels.”
She was a little worried that if she said too little, Old Madam Lin would be unhappy.
But if she said too much, Lin Xiaoyue would not agree. Hence, she said 100 taels.
Unexpectedly, Old Madam Lin’s eyes widened.
‘Too taels?!” She said excitedly.
It’s not surprising that she was excited. She had been in charge of the Lin family for many years. Although she had handled a lot of money, 100 taels was really a very large amount to her.
It wasn’t difficult to do this. She just needed to talk to that wretched girl.
At that time, not only would she be able to get money, she could also take the opportunity to mend her relationship with that wretched girl.
She could choose not to go to the Liu residence this time, but she would have the chance to do so in the future.
“As for the exact amount, it doesn’t matter. I have to talk to Xiaoyue first.” Lin Lanhua said.
Seeing Old Madam Lin like this, she heaved a sigh of relief again.
She was really afraid that this stupid old woman would ask for a few hundred taels of silver.
“Humph! If she doesn’t give me 100 taels, I won’t help her!”
Lin Lanhua wanted to curse again.
Then, Lin Lanhua talked to Old Madam Lin for a while before she finally stopped.
“Then mother, there’s no time like the present. Let’s go to the Liu family now.” Lin Lanhua quickly said.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Old Madam Lin’s eyes.
She looked at Lin Lanhua and finally nodded.
“Alright, let’s go together.”
“Take the carriage you brought.”
“Alright.” Lin Lanhua’s heart was pumping.
It’s not like the b * tch didn’t know where you live. You lived in the same village and you still wanted to take a carriage there…
They went out and Lin Lanhua asked the coachman to hitch up the carriage.
Then, she helped Old Madam Lin into the carriage.
The carriage set off and soon arrived at the Liu residence.
Seeing that the Liu residence had indeed been expanded and that the workshop next door was also very large, Lin Lanhua was shocked and jealous.
“Who are you?” Zhao Kang asked when he saw a carriage approaching. He didn’t know the man riding the horse.
The coachman was about to answer when the carriage curtain was pulled open.
A woman with heavy makeup stuck her head out.
“Hehe, I’m your young miss’ aunt.” Then, he looked at the old woman beside him.
“This is your young miss’s grandmother.”
“I’ll have to trouble you to inform her. Tell her that we have something important to discuss with her.” Lin Lanhua was very polite.
Her tone made Old Madam Lin annoyed.
Seriously, why did she have to be so humble in front of a servant? She had lowered her status for no reason.
Zhao Kang frowned when he heard that.
“Our young miss doesn’t have any relatives, let alone aunt or grandmother. Please leave.” He said coldly.
As servants of the Liu family, they naturally knew what had happened between the Liu family and the Lin family.
Since he knew, he could guess their identities.
How could he let these two go and bother the young miss?
