If the family really arranged a direct engagement, Yin Mingyu can’t stop it.

But di mother Han is like an experienced fisherman. She cooks the bait Yin Mingyu likes to eat, makes it more delicious, and more attractive, even knows how to push and pull.

She left a huge bait for Yin Mingyu, let her go back, and reasonably let her think about it.

On the way back, Yin Mingyu’s pace slowed down a lot. “Twenty thousand, twenty thousand, twenty thousand……”

She doesn’t want to be pinched, but it was really a lot of money~

According to the purchasing power of this dynasty, one or two silver coins can buy nearly 20 stone grains, which is more than 2000 jin. It can be imagined that 20000 liang is a great fortune.

Moreover, the dowry belongs to her only. She can spend it on herself at will. Even if it is scattered, no one can buy it.

The more she thought so, the more she revealed her inner tendency, and she was so honest.

Yin Mingyu couldn’t help laughing.

Jin and Yin maidservants heard her light laughter and looked at her questioningly. Yin’er was frank and asked, “Lady, what are you laughing at?”

Yin Mingyu looked back with a smile in her eyes, “Aren’t you happy that you can have enough food, but you also have enough money to eat wine and listen to music?”

Yin’er twisted her head, “I don’t like drinking wine and listening to music.”

Yin Mingyu could not help laughing, and the fan tapped her on the head, “Your family’s Lady likes it~”

Hearing this, Yin’er smiled, “Lady likes it. That’s something to be happy about.”

Yin Mingyu took back the fan and shook it gently, “I, this person, vulgar, am more energetic when I have money.”

Jin’er suddenly asked, “But lady, where does the money come from?”

“Good question.” Yin Mingyu raised her fan, covered her eyebrows, looked at the setting sun in the distance, and whispered, “If you want a bear’s paw, you naturally have to give up a fish.”

“Bear’s paw? Fish?” Yin’er was confused, “Are you going to give up the fish?”

Yin Mingyu raised the corners of her mouth, put down the fan, stepped forward again, and left a sentence before she left, “It doesn’t matter whether it is a bear’s paw or a fish, it doesn’t steal or rob, and it has a clear conscience.”

Yin’er looked at Jin’er with confused eyes, “So, is it a bear’s paw or a fish?”

“Listen to the lady, you don’t need to understand.” After Jin’er said that, she took her to catch up with Yin Mingyu.

As soon as the master and servants returned to the west corner yard, the door of the east chamber opened, and Yin Mingrui, the Third Lady, and Yin Mingruo, the Fourth Lady, both came out.

“Second Sister, you are back.” Yin Mingrui asked tentatively, “What’s mother looking for you for? I heard that Xie Xiao Langjun came. Did the Second Sister perchance meet him ?”

Yin Mingyu did not answer, but asked, “Have you used dinner? If you guys have not, do you guys want to eat Lengtao?”

Both shook their heads and had no opinions on what to eat.

Yin Mingyu ordered people to go to the dining room to inform them.

The three sisters, unless Yin Mingyu gets up late, eat together most of the time. Yin Mingrui and Yin Mingruo follow Yin Mingyu and enter her room.

Yin Mingrui did not get her answer just now. She was still not reconciled. She asked again, “Why didn’t my mother leave the Second Sister to eat in the main courtyard?”

Yin Mingyu waved her hand to let the maids not wait on her, and then looked at Yin Mingrui lightly.

Yin Mingrui curls her fingers under her eyes and lowers her head unconsciously.
