Chapter 10-11 Another year of summer, the Han family provokes suspicion
Chapter 10 Another Summer
The genius doctor who came to Xincheng suddenly suppressed the plague and soon reported it to the court. When the court heard the news, it was already half a month later. However, the news did not make the current Holy Majesty much happier.
What was even more troublesome was that the barbarians from the north began to invade the border. Within ten days, they took down three cities in one fell swoop. Today, the holy majesty was furious and wanted to send troops, but the heavy rain and plague in the Xincheng area had already damaged most of the soldiers, so he had no choice but to withdraw his idea.
In May of the 30th year of Longyi in the Jin Dynasty, the current emperor sent an imperial envoy to Lingjiu Pass to make peace with the Yuwu clan. and fail.
The Holy Majesty was furious and ordered the courtiers in the court to provide a solution. The Third Prince, the Fifth Prince, and the Ninth Prince listened to the counselor's advice and presented their opinions one after another. These did not solve the Holy Majesty's troubles.
At this moment, the capital was in dire straits, and all the officials were extremely busy. As a last resort, the current Holy Majesty had to transfer the heroic old general guarding Xiguan back to the capital to lead troops to attack Yuwu.
Outwardly, Lin Liangchen, who described the situation as a disaster, learned that Xu Han was safe and sound, and asked Xu Yongshuiqing to charter a boat to the south to sell the supplies needed by Xincheng, taking advantage of the fact that Xincheng had just been affected by the disaster.
After the two set off, Lin Liangchen bought a new batch of servants and went home to train them. The young man who harassed Lin Liangchen last time came to the door again because he refused to give up. Lesson, send a letter to Ji Shi, Ji Shi himself has no time to clone himself, so he sent Steward Lu to help resolve this matter, but the young man not only did not retreat, but became more and more arrogant.
Unable to be forced, Lin Liangchen had no choice but to close the door to thank the guests. After staying at home for a few days, the young man saw Lin Liangchen being so difficult to deal with, and his fighting spirit was aroused in his heart. The more frustrated and courageous, the more frequent the door-to-door.
If the wall of Lin Liangchen's house was not high enough, the young man would have climbed up the wall and entered over the wall. The young man's pursuit gave Lin Liangchen quite a headache and asked Ji for help. A woman in the backyard of the Ji family has no good way, and Lu Yi, Lu Yun and others are not there, worrying about getting involved in the right and wrong outside. Stay behind closed doors.
Instead, they sent someone to invite Lin Liangchen, mother and son to live there for a while. Lin Liangchen thought that he had just moved here not long ago, so it would be too much trouble, so he declined Ji's kindness. When it's unbearable. Use supernatural powers to play tricks and scare people away.
But within a few days, the young man came again, and this time he brought a lot of servants. At this time, Lu Yi had just finished his busy work for nearly a month and returned home by car. moment. I saw the young man.
I didn't intend to worry about it, but when I heard the word Lin Niangzi. Lu Yi trembled all over, scared away all the drowsiness, asked the driver to stop, listened for a while not far away, wondered if he was too sensitive,
Just as the driver was about to drive away, he heard a familiar voice by chance.
With slightly parted lips, he said to the coachman, "Alai, turn the carriage around."
The coachman, Alai, was puzzled. He responded, checked the surroundings, slowly turned the carriage around, and gradually moved forward. After passing behind the young man, he got the message that the carriage was about to stop. He opened the curtain and took a look outside. A lazy voice floated from inside the car.
"Second Master Xu is really in a good mood."
The sudden voice startled the young man, looked at the carriage in astonishment, and shouted, "Who are you!"
Lu Yi in the car chuckled, "Master Xu Si doesn't know who I am?"
His voice is so indistinct?
The young man called Xu Si retracted his astonishment, strode towards the carriage where Lu Yi was, and when he got close, he slammed up the curtain of the carriage, seeing Lu Yi's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, his mouth opened wide, he was shocked Called: "Is that you?"
Xu Si was very surprised.
Lu Yi raised his eyebrows, "It's me, it seems that Fourth Master Xu hasn't forgotten me."
Xu Si glared at Lu Yi angrily, anger flashed across his already handsome face, and he snorted coldly, looking very proud and unruly, "What are you doing here?"
Is this person meddling again? Or do you want to spoil his good deeds?
Lu Yi didn't answer, but withdrew the smile on his face, and acted seriously, "It doesn't matter what I do, the important thing is that your father is fighting the enemy at the front right now. At this critical moment, Mr. Xu, you still have the mood to come out." ..."
Although the words were not clear, Xu Si understood clearly, and immediately shouted, "Lu Yi, don't think that your father is the prime minister of the court, so you can yell at me all the time. Let me tell you, people are afraid of you. I'm not afraid of you!"
Anyway, his father is far away in the sky, and now he is fighting again, so he can't control him at all.
He can do whatever he wants.
When the breeze blew, Xu Si's expensive robe fluttered with the wind, revealing his arrogance.
Lu Yi frowned, and gave Xu Si a meaningful look, "It doesn't matter even if the Holy Lord condemns you today?"
"What do you mean?" Xu Si didn't turn his head around all of a sudden, and looked at Lu Yi in a daze.
"Second Master Xu, do you still need me to explain clearly?" Lu Yi cast a look that you don't understand, and let Xu Si guess.
"Lu Yi, don't threaten me there." It's just Jie Yuan, who doesn't even have the qualifications to be an official, so he has the nerve to be arrogant in front of him.
Lu Yi did not make a sound, glanced at him lightly, and issued a warning: "I am not threatening you, but I just want to tell you that this lady Lin is my righteous sister, and if you trouble her, you will trouble me. I'm in a hurry, I can't promise, I will give you a good lesson for the brave old general."
These words made it clear that Lin Liangchen was under his cover, and if he troubled her, he just wouldn't go with him.
Xu Si's face froze, and he quickly recovered. He glanced at Lu Yi teasingly, "Brother Lu, why are you protecting Miss Lin so much..."
"Could it be something?" Lu Yi didn't show any reaction on his face.
Xu Si rolled his eyes, laughed out loud, and said in a low voice, "Jinwu Zangjiao?"
Lu Yi narrowed his eyes, "It seems that someday, I have to come and bother your father, otherwise, the old lady will blame me for knowing the truth and reporting the truth, it's not good..."
Hearing the old lady's words, Xu Si panicked, "You..."
"Forget it, forget it, Master Ben remembers that there are still things to finish, so I won't be here with you. I will ask Brother Lu for advice when I have time."
Xu Si almost squeezed the word "ask for advice" from between his teeth.
Lu Yi hooked the corners of his lips, but didn't pay much attention to it. To Xu Sidao: "Master Xu Si, let's go!"
When Xu Si and his party walked away, Lu Yi's eyes turned cold immediately, he snorted softly, turned around and asked the two young men who were about to close the door, "Is your master called Lin Liangchen?"
The two boys looked at each other, then shook their heads. "What is the name of the master, we don't know, we are just following the master's order. We will guard it here."
Lu Yi let out a groan, he understood, and asked one of the young men to report to Lin Liangchen, and then started chatting with another young man at the door. "When were you bought?"
The doorman was reluctant to speak at first. After hesitating for a while, thinking that this person helped him out, he shouldn't be a bad person. After thinking about it, he said politely, "Go back to my lord, we only came here a few days ago."
Lu Yi twitched the corner of his mouth, but he didn't notice that this guy was quite cautious.
Because Lin Liangchen was busy making essential oils. Therefore, she didn't come out to receive Lu Yi directly, and asked Shui Lian to entertain Lu Yi. He stopped what he was doing, washed his hands, and after a while, he came out.
"Brother Lu?"
Lin Liangchen entered the room with a smile.
Lu Yi didn't smile, he glanced at Lin Liangchen lightly, and said, "Why didn't you just move out without saying anything?"
At this moment, Lu Yi was a little angry. He didn't expect that Lin Liangchen would move out without saying anything. If he hadn't been lucky enough to meet Xu Si flirting openly at Lin Liangchen's door today, Lu Yi thought, he might still was kept in the dark.
Lin Liangchen hesitated, "Did I tell Mrs. Ji earlier?"
It's because she insisted on moving. In addition, when she greeted Mrs. Ji, she said that Lu Yi also agreed, and she was able to settle down so quickly. Now...
Suddenly thought of something, Lin Liangchen twitched the corner of his mouth, "It's okay, I'm fine, am I?"
Seeing Lin Liangchen's eyes flickering non-stop, Lu Yi suddenly understood, his face darkened, and he said with some displeasure: "If something happens to your mothers, how will I explain to Xu Han when he comes back?"
"I'm sensible, Brother Lu, you don't have to worry."
In fact, Lin Liangchen thinks that Lu Yi is a little unfounded. During these days in the capital, she has always used her abilities to detect them. They are very safe.
Or maybe Xu Han's identity has not been exposed, or someone has long forgotten that there is such a person as Xu Han.
Lu Yi stayed at Lin Liangchen's house for a short time, and when he learned that their mother and son were doing well, apart from being harassed, he gave Lin Liangchen a few words of advice, and then went home.
In Lu's mansion, Mrs. Ji was naturally very happy with Lu Yi's return. As soon as Lu Yi sat down, he asked the maid who was close to him to prepare meals for a while, and let people bring hot water in for a while.
Busy to and fro, wandering around non-stop.
Lu Yi looked at Ji Shi hesitantly, but finally said nothing. After the hot water was ready, he went to take a bath. Seeing that his little thoughts had not been exposed, Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Liangchen didn't know whether Lu Yi questioned Mrs. Ji, but in the next few days, Xu Si did not come to the house to harass him, and Lin Liangchen finally calmed down.
Not long after Lu Yi came back, the Ji family sent people to send a lot of condolences. Lin Liangchen didn't know whether it was a thank you or a bribe, but Lin Liangchen didn't want to have any more contact with Ji's person. .
To avoid trouble, Lin Liangchen asked someone to send back a similar gift.
At this time, the time has come to the end of June, and another round of double grabs is coming to an end.
The Beishang War is continuing in full swing, and it seems to be at an impasse. After half a month, there has been no progress.
The soldiers who stayed in the Xincheng area, after being baptized by floods and plagues, and after a month's rest, moved back to the court as they wished.
Chapter 11
Dahe Village, Xu's family, and Han's family waited for half a year without news from Xu Jun. Don't say how anxious they were, they often ran to Lin Liangchen's house to ask Xu Fang if Lin Liangchen had any news from Xu Jun.
How could Lin Liangchen know about Xu Jun's news? Naturally, he didn't know about Han's inquiry, so he had to tell the truth when he replied, which unexpectedly caused Han's dissatisfaction.
The Han family thought that Lin Liangchen had enjoyed the prosperity of the capital, so he ignored them, complained about Lin Liangchen for a while, and ran from the old man to Lin Liangchen's house, which became a detour.
But Xu Jun's long-term failure to return has become empty talk for Han's boast in the village. He was ridiculed by the villagers.
Feeling ashamed and indignant, the Han family got into verbal fights with others several times, and in the end they almost ended up fighting, even though the fight became more and more intense. Xu Jun still has not returned.
In the new round of double robbing, due to continuous quarrels between the Han family and the villagers, the Song family could not find anyone to help for a while, and had no choice but to ask Xu Fang for help.
Xu Fang has been speechless for a long time about the second mother of the owner's family who thought it was her first time, even if she is not related by blood. But that relationship was still there, Xu Fang had no choice but to hold back his anger and lead someone to help the Han family. Unexpectedly, after the double snatching was over, Han didn't even say a word of thanks, thinking it was a matter of course, and dismissed it with a few casual words.
I didn't say anything about being sent for nearly twenty days. Still exhausted. Xu Fang was naturally dissatisfied that he didn't get a meal on the way, and he didn't even say a word of thanks afterwards.
Thinking about it, when Lin Liangchen's family was here, they were never mean to them. Because of this, they, the servants, obeyed Lin Liangchen's words and were very happy and satisfied to do things for Lin Liangchen.
It's Han's here. That's good, what I eat is my master's. What he did was not his own master's business, Xu Fang was ashamed for a while, so he had to say to Han: "My old boss, the rice that was robbed is left over and the rice is confiscated. You work hard these few days, and you can take it back if you let it dry." gone."
Most of the things have been done, and the only thing left is the unfinished rice, which I think the Han family should be able to do.
In a negotiable tone, Mrs. Han changed her face after hearing this, "That's how you help me with things? I'm almost done with the rest, so what can I do if I continue to work? You miss my old lady Still have to be exposed to the sun?
You said you, Xu Fang, how are you doing? Didn't you see that our family is all women? Feel free to tell us that too. "
When Han Shi trains people, his hands are all little by little.
In terms of age, Mrs. Han is not much older than Fang Xu. On the other hand, Mrs. Han is a few years younger than Xu Fang. She is not ashamed to say that she is an old lady in front of someone older than herself, but Han But Shi didn't realize it at all.
He decided that he was right to do so, but he was merciless in ordering him to do so.
Xu Fang was also annoyed. Thinking of the grievances he had suffered these days, he retorted: "It's not that I don't help, but that we won't be able to spare any time in the next few days."
During the days of helping Han's double robbing, Xu Fang didn't have time to take care of Lin Liangchen's confession to him. Seeing that it was time for a new round of delivery, Xu Fang simply couldn't spare himself to deal with Han's affairs.
"Is there anything you can't spare? Boy Han's fields are all hired by others, and you don't need to grab both. Besides doing your own little work every day, what else is there to be busy with?"
When living in the town before, the Han family saw a lot of such things. Those servants of the big family are all idle. Just how free.
Xu Fang couldn't say a word when Han was blocked, he didn't know what kind of mentality he should use to face it, he opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but he still held back what he wanted to say.
After taking a look at Mrs. Han, he brought three or five people who came to help and went home directly.
Han yelled angrily, "Xu Fang, you guys come back to me quickly, or I'll tell Liang Chen to sell you all later."
These words did not make Xu Fang and the others stop, on the contrary they walked faster one by one.
The appearance was very anxious, wishing to disappear in front of Han's eyes immediately, Han's threat was fruitless, and Sa Yazi chased after her. Naturally, a woman of Han's family is not comparable to several men. After chasing for a long time, no one can catch up. Tired to death.
Not long after Xu Fang and the others arrived home, Mrs. Han followed directly. Seeing that the door was closed, she didn't care about her image, and went up to knock on the door. Before Xu Fang stopped, she heard Mrs. Han's voice on the other side. Annoyed, he threw the things in his hand on the table, and went outside to open the door dejectedly.
Xu Fang was speechless for a long time. As soon as the door was opened, Han scolded and sprayed Xu Fang all over the face with saliva.
Xu Fang almost didn't beg for mercy, "Han Dong's family, with such a little work, you can work hard and work on your own. Our boss's own affairs are not finished yet, if we let her know, it's really my fault."
Han's face became more and more ugly, "The good days are in the capital, what else can I tell you to do? Don't lie to me."
Mrs. Han is not stupid, how could she fail to see that Xu Fang was making excuses and insisted that Xu Fang finish her affairs.
Han couldn't believe it. Unable to explain clearly, Xu Fang had no choice but to shut the Han family out. Go back and tell the people below that you will make a detour when you see Han Shi in the future, so as not to be caught by her as a coolie.
It's nothing to be a coolie, the key is to eat the food of their own masters, and this has been done for a few days, isn't it a typical way to eat inside and outside?
Coupled with Han's character, after half a year of understanding. Xu Fang understood very well what Han's character was like.
Xu Fang and others ignored Han, but Han had no one to help. I had no choice but to go to the village to find someone, and spread the word to the people in the village. Lin Liangchen's servants are ignorant and only do half of what they do.
was heard by others. As a matter of course, the Han family was ridiculed.
"You are ashamed to order others. No one else is ashamed to do it for you. Besides, how does Liang Chen treat his servants, and how do you treat them?
The master who doesn't serve a mouthful of food and a mouthful of water, is ashamed to accuse others of not doing work for you, and they are quick to do it, and talk about it. Are you ashamed? "
"I really think of myself as an old lady, and I want to hide at home and enjoy myself."
left sentence. The sarcasm on the right made Mr. Han blushed a little.
The eyes of these people in the village are sharp. When Xu Fang and his party were snatched by the Han family, most of the people in the village saw it.
Xu Fang and his team have been busy for so many days, except for the first day, Han didn't even lose his head, as if he really treated himself as an old lady, enjoying the happiness at home.
Seeing that Xu Fang and the others were slow to work, they came out to remind them. They didn't stay for long, and they slapped their buttocks and left.
It's okay to go too far by yourself, and now you still have the face to take it to the village to make a fuss, and anyone with a bit of conscience will argue a few words.
What's more, these years, Lin Liangchen's family has always had a good reputation in the village, and even Xu Fang and other servants are given face by others.
Since Lin Liangchen and Jia Yacai proposed the idea of developing the village on its own and making the people in the village rich, in the past three years, Dahe Village has already changed a lot.
The villagers in Dahe Village benefited the most, and Jia Yacai did not take all the credit for himself. He told the villagers who came up with the idea and who implemented the plan.
Now people in Dahe Village have changed their views on Lin Liangchen long ago. Of course, some people have questioned the authenticity of this matter, but after the instigators were excluded by most of the villagers, no one said anything about it.
If Lin Liangchen was so selfish, he would help the village, and let everyone in the village get rich without going out?
Now, the Han family doesn't know the situation and wants to pour acid water, who will buy it?
He couldn't find someone to help, and he came back with a stinky body. Mrs. Han was in a bad mood, cursed a few words, and went back to find Mrs. Song and Xu Yan to empty the rice that was still drying on the threshing floor.
"My son hasn't come back yet, and I've been yelling all day that my son wants to be a high-ranking official. Is Xu Jun of their family's virtue? It's almost the same for my man."
The woman who had ridiculed the Han family before was now talking behind her back.
As soon as these words came out, the laughter couldn't help but increase, "I said, old Liu's family, you must be jealous, right?"
The eyeballs of the old Liu family kicked, "I am jealous and no one can be jealous of her? Her man is gone, her son is not here, and a large group of women eat free food at home all day, why are they jealous?"
If he has the ability, wait until his son becomes a high official.
Discussions rang out one after another, Yu Shi, passing by the place where the nephew and the women were talking, narrowed his eyes, looked in this direction with some meaning, tightened the basket in his hand, and left quickly.
Five years later, Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Zhao Qingsong, and Mrs. Ye's husband and wife are no longer as young as they used to be, with a little gray hair on the temples. However, this hair on the temples is only for Mrs. Ye and Zhao Qingsong.
After all, Mrs. Yu is a person who has lived a lifetime. Compared with Mrs. Ye five years later, she looks much younger than Mrs. Ye.
Even Zhao Qingsong, who always hated the Yu family, felt this way.
As soon as Mrs. Yu came back with the basket, Mrs. Ye shot her poisonous eyes at Mrs. Yu's body, Mrs. Yu glanced back sharply, Mrs. Ye even took her eyes back, and did what she did in her own hands. matter.
Mrs. Yu snorted coldly, and walked back into the house with heavy steps. At lunch time, two people who were incompatible with each other were cooking in the kitchen, and no one paid attention to the other. Things that have been hidden in my heart for a long time.
"It's time for the fifth brother to release the list now. I don't know if he will be selected. I haven't received a letter for so long. Shall we..."
Yu Guang cast a glance at Mrs. Yu, and continued: "Would you like to go to the capital, meet the fifth child, and look for the fourth child along the way?"
As soon as the words fell, Yu's eyes swept over, "What shall we take?"
In a word, Zhao Qingsong choked half to death. (To be continued..)
