Chapter 56 Atmosphere
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yan asked.

Ling Qing, who turned his back to Xiao Yan, responded: "Suddenly, I feel that Xiao Shizi is very funny."

"Fun?"

Ling Qing smiled, raised her eyes and continued walking towards the inner courtyard: "Well, it's just for fun."

When the two of them came to Ling Chengtian's dormitory, she didn't explain clearly to Xiao Yan what "he's very funny".

Ling Chengtian even noticed that the atmosphere where his daughter and Xiao Yan stood together had changed.

He already knew what happened in the front yard.But more importantly, the major events in her daughter's life.

"What's wrong with you?" Ling Chengtian asked with a smile.

"The matter in the front yard, my daughter has taken care of it." Ling Qing heard the implication of this question, and knew very well that it was impossible for him not to know what happened in the mansion.

"Just deal with it." Ling Chengtian finished perfunctory, and then asked: "What's the matter with you two?"

"My daughter and Xiao Shizi just went to the mine. Unexpectedly, there is a gold mine under the ground of the house, and it is quite large."

Ling Chengtian secretly sighed with regret, and returned to the main topic: "The gold mine was discovered by your grandfather. He didn't tell it until after Dad ascended the throne."

"Our shopping mall was built with the gold from the ground."

"Is it all used to fund the construction of the mall?" Ling Qing asked.

"In addition to the construction of the mall, it has been maintained for 20 years. The operation of Ducheng and the mall." Ling Chengtian sighed: "That is a big gold mine, almost occupying the underground of our house."

Ling Qing was suspicious: "Since it was left to you by grandfather, did you know that there was a gold mine when grandfather took this land?"

"It's not." Ling Chengtian smiled: "It's all thanks to your mother."

"My mother?"

"Father and your mother are childhood sweethearts. When you were young, your mother often came to Ling's house. She said she liked Meilin, so I planned to enclose a piece of land to plant it. Who knew that after digging too deep, I found a gold mine."

Ling Qing remembered that there used to be a plum grove on the east side of the courtyard, but now it has become a flower garden.

So, Jiang Qing knew about the existence of the gold mine, and discovered it when she was transforming Merlin?
"Did Jiang Qing discover the gold mine while renovating the mansion?" Ling Qing asked.

Ling Chengtian nodded: "At that time, the gold mine was gone. Later, I heard that a small gold mine was found on the outskirts of the west courtyard."

"It's the newly expanded back garden of Bihuayuan. The entrance is covered by rockery piles, just like here."

Ling Qing had the final say, that is, five years ago, maintaining Jiang Qing's big expenses for so many years, that small gold mine was not too small.

"Now, it's already empty." Xiao Yan, who had been silent all this time, said lightly, "But it's still digging out, and it's almost at the foot of the city wall."

Logically speaking.Generally, near large gold mines, there are still some small gold mines.

As for how much, no one knows.

Jiang Qing has tasted a small sweetness, and has been imagining that there will be more sweetness waiting for her to discover.

It's no different from gambling.

If Jiang Qing keeps digging, then the Ling Mansion may collapse without solid support.

"Don't worry." Xiao Yan's sudden words stunned Ling Qing.

He continued: "All around the Ling Mansion, only the side of the Bihua Courtyard has been extended and excavated, and the rest of the ground is solid."

"Oh!"

Ling Chengtian understood instantly.

When Xiao Yan saw that the worry in Ling Qing's brow disappeared, he knew that he was right.

Ling Qing felt that the topic must be changed as soon as possible, otherwise her father would ask those irrelevant questions again.

"Father, the townspeople and servants are making trouble, and they seem to be directed at you." Ling Chengtian fell into deep thought after Ling Qing said this.

Xiao Yan on the side thought the same.

Both of them were waiting for Ling Chengtian's response.

After a long time, he said, "If it's not for my life, then it's for my private treasury."

Ling Qing remembered that Xu Xiaozheng said that all the expenses of Lanzhou Academy were paid by his father.

Even if the public has more money, it can't get here.

Besides, there was a lot of money in the public school, so they would naturally think that their father also got so much private money.

It's no wonder you're not jealous.

"Father, have you lived in such a difficult time in the mansion, have you never advanced a penny? Besides, they also know that you put a lot of money into your private treasury every month?"

"There's no such thing as a difficult life. It's just trying to force me to take out the money to cover the debt that the traitor owes to the chamber of commerce." Ling Chengtian had a rare temper.

Ling Qing was right in guessing that Jiang Qing wanted to be frugal on purpose.

When I met Jiang Qing for the first time, the ostentation seemed like I was short of money.

Afterwards, she became more cautious. There was only a nanny and a maidservant by her side.

But today, she didn't let the servants make trouble. She really didn't know that besides the servants in the west courtyard, there were more than 200 servants in the front courtyard, guest courtyard and east courtyard alone.

There were more than 200 deeds of prostitution that Ling Chengtian gave, and there were only dozens of them gathered in the front yard, but all the thieves surfaced honestly and went to grab things.

Ling Qing sneered in her heart, anyway, in the future, she would not give any wages of servants to anyone in the West Court District.

"The money in the private treasury, daddy left it for you to use." Ling Chengtian suddenly said that again.

Ling Qing was inattentive and choked on his own saliva.

Ling Chengtian felt guilty and asked Xu An to quickly pour a glass of water to moisten Ling Qing's throat.

Xiao Yan couldn't do anything, he watched intently, and his hand on the armrest twitched.

Ling Qing coughed for a while, and then slowly subsided.

"However, you mentioned the matter of becoming dizzy, so you are so excited." Ling Chengtian said again.

Ling Qing's cheeks were flushed due to coughing, making Ling Chengtian think she was shy.

"Daddy, we're talking about business!" Ling Qing said dissatisfied.

At the same time, he glanced at Xiao Yan, who was full of doubts.

It wasn't an engagement that was promised, why did my father continue to talk about it in a daze?

Innocence appeared in Xiao Yan's eyes, which surprised Ling Qing.

But in one breath, she had forced herself to calm down.

At the same time, Xiao Yan's voice came from beside his ear.

"Wei Xia still has something waiting for me to deal with. Uncle Ling, Miss Ling, I'll get busy first."

"Go, go!" Ling Chengtian said generously with a smile.

Ling Qing stared expressionlessly at Xiao Yan's leaving back, and it took a while to look away, then turned to bump into Ling Chengtian's smiling eyes.

"Daddy, what are you laughing at?" Ling Qing looked puzzled.

"Xiao Shizi mentioned it to his father, saying that they can get married first and then get married."

"Then what do you say?"

"Daddy naturally agreed. After all, this is what the two of you want. Anyway, Daddy is not short of the engagement money."

Ling Qing didn't believe Ling Chengtian, so he agreed so boldly, and asked, "Did you think of any new moves?"

Ling Chengtian smiled and said: "There is no new trick, that is, the second day after asking for an engagement is the day when you will be in a coma."

Ling Qing was not happy, it might be meaningless to be married.

"Xiao Shizi agreed. But looking at your sad little face, I guess he hasn't had time to tell you yet!"

Ling Chengtian felt relieved: "Seeing that Shizi Xiao is so considerate to you, Daddy is relieved."

Ling Qing narrowed his eyes and didn't speak.

She complained in her heart, whether he is considerate or not has nothing to do with her.
