Chapter 205: Reward
Chapter 205 Reward
The next morning, Chu Nanzhi was sound asleep when she was awakened by crying.
She opened her eyes, only to see Lin Jinxiao walking in, Sibao Lin Ruijia was sitting on the bed, crying sadly while rubbing her eyes.
The two looked at each other, and then heard Sibao cry out in a crisp voice: "Mum, Dad, I peed on the bed again."
Chu Nanzhi reached out and touched her buttocks, which were wet and steaming, immediately embraced the little one with a face of shame, and comforted her in a good voice: "It's okay, we'll let the people in the post house clean it later. "
I also blame myself for being careless, I should have put some cloth on the bed for her.
Cough, I really can't be considered a competent mother.
She got up in a hurry with Sibao in her arms, but Lin Jinxiao said, "You go wash and make up first, and I will take care of Sibao."
Chu Nanzhi thought about it and nodded. Although she doesn't like makeup and dressing up, she is not as agile as these men. She put the little one on the bed carefully, and said softly, "Baby, let your father wash it for you. Just change your clothes."
Si Bao grabbed Lin Jinxiao's clothes corner, nodded in response with tears in his eyes, and stopped crying.
Seeing Lin Jinxiao hugging Sibao and helping her tidy up her clothes, Chu Nanzhi realized that they didn't bring a change of clothes, so she went to get the clothes from the package and discussed with him, "I'll go to the county office later, you and Shu Yang will take the clothes with you." Sibao went outside to buy two changes of ready-made clothes for each of you."
After finishing speaking, he deliberately emphasized: "With crutches."
"I asked Saburo to send two yamen servants to accompany them out, and I will accompany you to the county yamen."
Today is the beginning of the purge of Haikang County officials. He must go there in person. Once he finds a suitable opportunity, he will immediately cut in and catch them by surprise.
After finishing speaking, Lin Jinxiao calmly took out a thick stack of banknotes from his pocket and put them on the table: "You keep the banknotes."
Chu Nanzhi turned her head to look, and found that the banknotes on the table were much thicker than before, she took them over and counted them in surprise, and couldn't help shouting: "Where did you get so many banknotes?"
It's only a few days, how come interest is generated.
Lin Jinxiao replied unhurriedly: "I heard from Chang Lao that it was the Empress Dowager Princess Chashu who bestowed a thousand taels of gold on the people of the Lin clan in Luyan Gang. Two silver bills."
Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized and nodded: "Since it is a reward from the palace, you can take it and give it to the Lin clan. What do you entrust to me?"
"You are my wife, and you have always been in charge of the family's livelihood. My mentor handed over the money to me, but not to the head of the Lin family. Naturally, I want you to control the money."
Lin Jinxiao acted calmly.
His attitude towards these tribesmen in Luyan Port is the same as that of silver, which is dispensable.
Chu Nanzhi thought that in the past, the money in the family was under the control of the original owner, so she couldn't refuse it anymore, lest he be suspicious again, and obediently collected the bank notes.
Just thinking about what happened in the past few days, she became even more puzzled, and couldn't help asking: "Lin Dalang, you are just taking office now, and you haven't made any achievements. Why does the Empress Dowager want to reward you as a member of the Lin clan?"
"Go and guess what the Empress Dowager is thinking."
Lin Jinxiao pulled Sibao out of the bed, leaned on his crutches and began to walk out, urging in a gentle voice: "Go and get your makeup done, don't waste time, I told you yesterday what needs to be explained."
Chu Nanzhi followed out in a daze, but kept muttering in her heart.
If it was because of encouraging the Lin clan in Luyan Port, it would make sense for the Empress Dowager to reward Lin Jinxiao and his clan so much.
After all, the lineage of King Pingning has been terribly withered for hundreds of years, and even the county magistrate has not produced a few people. According to what Lin Jinxiao said yesterday, it is a gimmick to resist the Baiyu people and Dongsang people's re-use of the clan's children.
But after hearing the gossip and anecdotes from Xie Jingchen's apprentice, she now always suspects about the posthumous child.
Besides, people have to go to Beijing to go to Beijing to report on the assessment for promotion. He took office immediately, and even Li Ce followed suit, which is a bit absurd. Could it be because of Princess Jinshu and the second elder?
Maybe I really worry too much.
During the time I’ve been here, I’ve had enough **** luck. It would be even more unbelievable if I pampered a posthumous son of the former prince.
Chu Nanzhi fetched water in a trance, washed his face slowly, and then combed his hair. The maid of the post house brought in the breakfast, and the family of three sat down at the dining table and began to eat.
Lin Jinxiao peeled an egg and put it in Chu Nanzhi's bowl, and then peeled the egg for Sibao while exhorting:
"I don't really suggest that you give the money directly to the people of the clan. You have seen the flamboyant temperament of the uncle of the clan. There is no need for this matter to cause a storm in the city. This is because the teacher gave me the reward of the empress dowager instead of His reason."
Hearing this, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sneered coldly: Maybe they just rewarded you alone, just for another reason.
But thinking about Lin Tingzhen, the head of the Lin family, it is indeed a headache. The last time Princess Jinshu just called the little boy face-to-face, and the old guy called himself "Uncle Emperor" in front of Zheng Haichuan. .
If he knew that the Empress Dowager had rewarded the members of the Luyan Ganglin clan, he would have wished to drive a carriage around the entire Dahe Empire to show off.
Lin Jinxiao peeled the eggs for Sibao, put some vegetables into a bowl for her, and said to himself, "From now on, if you like people in the clan, you can help them out, and if you meet people you hate, don't worry about them." Anyway, they are too lazy to rely on the money of their ancestors, and few of them can support them."
Chu Nanzhi listened silently, but no matter how he listened to it, he felt that what he said was a bit of entrustment.
In front of the little guy, she couldn't say much, she brought some food for Sibao, pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Hurry up, let uncle take you to the market to buy new clothes after eating."
When he heard that he was going to buy new clothes, Sibao was in full bloom. He answered with a smile and buried his head to eat seriously.
At this time, Liu Shuyang and Ma Laifu came in from the outside together, and after resting for the night, the young son-in-law looked much better than yesterday.
Chu Nanzhi took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Liu Shuyang. According to the plan in advance, he asked him to take the four treasures to the market to find a shop to buy clothes. It happened that Ma Laifu led the way, and he and Lin Jinxiao went to the county government office together. .
The second time I walked into the county government office in Haikang County, there was a huge difference compared to yesterday. The county captain Qi Luan was missing from the courtroom, and instead Lin Jinxiao and Hu Maoxi sat and listened.
The county magistrate Kang Mingyuan knocked on the gavel, and was so gentle that there was almost no sound. The three words "bring people into prison" lost the majesty of yesterday, and became more solemn and easy-going. Sitting upright, he tried his best to show kindness and amiability. good parent image.
When everything was ready, he secretly looked at Lin Jinxiao and Hu Maoxi who were sitting next to him, and seeing that there was no abnormality on their faces, he finally let out a sigh of relief:
As long as he maintains this gentle posture, he will still rule the world of Haikang County after the trial of this case is over and the God of Plague is sent away.
After all, this guy is not his boss, so he won't be staring at his Haikang county government office every day with his Tianzi sword and his identity as a member of the Lin clan.
In the last few days, there is still a monthly ticket, and the fairies and sisters can spread it and make it to the list.
