Chapter 126 Drawing fire from the bottom of the cauldron

Seeing Lin looking at her eagerly, Lu Chenshuang said slowly, "Instead of trying to stop the boiling water by adding more fuel, it is better to remove the fuel from under the cauldron."

Lin didn't quite understand what Lu Chenshuang meant, so she asked, "What does Shuang'er mean by that? Mother doesn't quite understand."

Although Lin was the mistress of the house, she was not well-educated, which was why Lu Zhan couldn't get along with her.

So she really didn't understand what Lu Chenshuang meant.

Seeing that Lin didn't quite understand, Lu Chenshuang lowered her voice and said, "Mother, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain.

This Han is arrogant and domineering. I don't recommend that you keep her. Otherwise, there will be trouble in the future."

It’s not that Lu Chenshuang is cruel, but in this seemingly peaceful backyard, there are always vicious people who want to kill them at any time.

If they did not have the status of legitimate daughters and the upper hand, they might have been eaten to pieces by the Han family.

She is not afraid, but Lin may fall into the trap one day.

Seeing that Lin hadn't expressed her opinion, Lu Chenshuang said again: "Mom, if you think I'm cruel, just pretend I never said this."

Lin came back to her senses and said, "No, my Shuang'er only cares about me, how could I think you are cruel?

If it were someone else, they would definitely not tell my mother these things.

I was just thinking, since Han this little bitch has always been protected by your father, how can I kill her with one strike and completely end her life without causing your father to be disgusted. "

Lu Chenshuang smiled and said, "Actually, this isn't that difficult.

What do you think Dad cares about most?

Lin sneered when he heard this and said, "Of course it's the reputation of their Lu family and his official position."

It is undeniable that Lu Zhan is a man of great political talent and cares a lot about his reputation.

Apart from the fact that he favored his concubines, there is really nothing wrong with him.

Although he favored his concubine, he did not divorce Lin, and he gave her all the respect that a wife should have after she came to Beijing.

However, Lu Chenshuang now really knows something that affects the reputation of the Lu family and Lu Zhan’s official reputation.

That means Han was lending money at high interest rates outside.

Although many family members of officials in the court deposited money, they did so in secret.

According to the timeline in the book, someone recently lost his life due to loan sharking, and the emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.

As long as Lin can collect enough evidence, Lu Zan will have to deal with Han, and Lu Zan will have to thank Lin.

Lu Chenshuang secretly told Lin about this.

Upon hearing this, Lin was shocked and said, “This Han is so bold.

Lending money at high interest rates is illegal.

Your father has repeatedly forbidden our family to do this, how dare she do this? "

Lu Chenshuang sneered when she heard this and said, "Mom, there are people who die for money and birds who die for food. Besides, not everyone has a rich family like mom, and has the support of an uncle.

Think about it, Han has been interacting with many noble ladies over the years.

During this period, comparisons were inevitable in terms of food, clothing and daily expenses.

Where did all this silver come from?

I'm afraid it won't be enough just to rely on the few shops my father gave her."

Lu Chenshuang's words reminded Lin.

Before going to the capital, in order not to be outdone by the noble ladies there, Han and Lu Chenxi bought a lot of clothes and jewelry.

Among them was a headgear that she had seen before, worth at least five thousand taels.

At that time, Han even came to show off in front of her.

However, Lin did not think much about it at the time. Now that she thinks about it, although the shops that Lu Zhan gave to Han are profitable, they certainly cannot earn so much.

I think the Han family started lending money at high interest a long time ago.

Thinking of this, Lin became impatient.

So he asked Shaoyao to find a reliable servant, whose name was Lin Jiaan.

Lin Jiaan's parents were both Lin's dowry and have always been loyal to Lin.

After Lin Jiaan came in, he greeted Lin and Lu Chenshuang.

Lin then told Lin Jia'an about Han's loan sharking and asked Lin Jia'an to secretly collect evidence of Han's loan sharking.

But we must not alert the enemy and let the Han family know.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiaan quickly agreed and assured, "Don't worry, Madam. Even if my parents ask, I won't tell them."

Lin nodded with satisfaction and let him go.

After Lin Jiaan left, Lu Chenshuang talked to Lin for a while before going to her own yard to rest.

The next day, Lu Chenshuang did not go to Prince Zhan's Mansion, as Mu Hansu's accounts had been almost settled.

Besides, it’s not your own business, so why should you work so hard?

However, Lu Chenshuang still sent someone to tell Mu Hansu.

After breakfast, Lu Chenshuang came to Lin's yard. Yesterday, the mother and daughter had agreed to go shopping together.

When Lu Chenshuang went there, Lin had already dressed up, and the two of them went with only a few personal maids.

Lin was talking and laughing all the way. This was the happiest day for Lin since she came to Beijing.

She insisted on taking Lu Chenshuang to the Treasure Pavilion to buy jewelry for her.

Lu Chenshuang couldn't persuade her and had to follow her in.

This Treasure Pavilion is truly worthy of being the number one jewelry store in Beijing. The jewelry inside is truly dazzling and has everything you could want.

There is probably no woman who doesn't like these shiny things, and Lu Chenshuang is no exception.

Since Lin wanted to buy jewelry for her, Lu Chenshuang was not polite.

She took a fancy to a set of pearl head ornaments. The pearls on it were round and had a light pink luster.

What’s even more rare is that this pearl is wild.

There are not only hairpins, but also earrings and necklaces.

Seeing that Lu Chenshuang liked it, Lin said to the waiter, "Please bring that pearl headdress over here so I can see it."

The waiter quickly agreed upon hearing this, then took the headgear but did not hand it to Lin.

An arrogant voice came out and said, "This county lord wants the head and face. Pack them up for me."

Lu Chenshuang turned her head when she heard that. She wondered who it was, but it turned out to be Princess Rong'an, the daughter of Princess Zhuoyang.

The last time Lu Chenshuang met Princess Rong'an at Princess Zhuoyang's flower-viewing banquet.

But Lin had never seen her before, so she frowned and said, "Young lady, we picked these first."

Upon hearing this, Princess Rong'an sneered and said arrogantly: "So what if you chose it first?

There is nothing that this county lady has set her sights on that she cannot obtain.”

The young man was a little embarrassed for a moment, because the Lady of Rong'an County was a frequent visitor here and he knew her.

Although Lu Chenshuang and Lin looked unfamiliar, their clothes and appearance did not seem like those of ordinary people.

Besides, it was indeed Lu Chenshuang and the others who first took a fancy to this headdress.

Lu Chenshuang said, "Even if you are the county lady, so what? The business of Treasure Pavilion has to follow the principle of first come first served.

"Waiter, how much is this pearl headpiece of yours? I want it."

What Princess Rong'an? Lu Chenshuang doesn't even take her mother, Princess Zhuoyang, seriously, let alone Princess Rong'an.

Besides, Princess Zhuoyang has completely lost favor in front of the Queen Mother, but others don’t know it.
