It took Xia Liansheng a few days, and finally inquired about the location of the Sheng'en Hou Lin's house, and it was easy to find a place, and the porter said that his lord took his wife to Yangzhou to be an official, and finally had relatives to vote, they warmly invited Xia Liansheng to stay, and said that someone would send a letter to Yangzhou to tell the lord. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Xia Liansheng how can he understand the normal attitude of the clansmen in this era to fight the autumn wind, he only instinctively didn't want to trouble others, so he agreed to stay for one night, saying that he would go to Yangzhou the next day. The porter hurriedly reported to the butler, who personally met him and invited him to stay again. Seeing that he was really curious, the housekeeper couldn't help sighing, and changed his words to say that someone could send them to Yangzhou, Xia Liansheng agreed, but he saw the abnormal performance of the housekeeper in his eyes and made a decision in his heart.

In the evening, the old butler sat at the table and sighed while pouring tea. The housekeeper's daughter-in-law came back from washing, and when she saw her old man sighing again, she couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What, are you still thinking about the young man with the child just now?" ”

The old housekeeper drank a sip of tea, raised his hand and poured a cup again, sighed and said: "Yes, I didn't know what was going on at first, and I didn't see any of the people who went to Yangzhou to join my relatives in the past two years, until last month, the young man who had joined his relatives in the first two years said that Yangzhou did not let his relatives go to his relatives." Even he, a poor relative who went to give New Year's gifts and thanks, didn't call in to meet him, so he came back, saying that it was not good to judge relatives in the Yamen of the Imperial History of Salt Patrol, otherwise there would be a suspicion of favoritism. It's a nice thing to say, but who doesn't know that these poor relatives who dislike us. Since the old lady left, the old man has changed as if he was a different person, during the old lady's filial piety, the people who came to join the relatives also saw it, and now this is not seen, it will really be chilling. The Lin family was not prosperous in the first place, and now they are pushing their relatives out one by one, don't look at the old man's current scenery, but how old is the young master? It's not nice to say, the old man is over forty years old, and if he throws his hands again one day, how can we, the old servants, help the young master and young lady stand up? It's not like you have to rely on relatives yet. ”

The housekeeper's daughter-in-law listened quietly to the old housekeeper's complaints, but couldn't help but interject: "You say, is it that my wife doesn't look down on these relatives, so..."

"Silence!"

"I'm not wrong, the old lady just went, and the filial piety period changed all the old people who were waiting for us, and now count Yangzhou side, except for a second housekeeper in the outer courtyard who is in charge of the things when the old man goes out, who else is from our Lin Mansion? Those of us who look at the house can't send a letter to the master. How many companions did my wife bring from the capital, wasn't it just to replace us all? But let's change it, and don't give our Lin family's family style...", he couldn't help wiping away his tears.

Seeing this, the housekeeper hurriedly said, "Look at you, don't cry you." ”

As he was talking, a person came in by pushing the door, and it was the eldest son of the old couple who happened to push the door in, and when he saw his mother wiping her tears, he couldn't help but say, "Mother, why are you crying again?" Are you two discussing things on the master's side again? I said you two don't sigh, once a son of heaven and a courtier, fortunately Mrs. replaced my father from his position at this time, if I am young and strong, in case Mrs. gives me a charge of uneasiness and kindness, our family should not fold into it. So look a little bit away. ”

As soon as the son opened his mouth, the housekeeper's daughter-in-law's tears that were about to stop flowed even more fiercely.

The old housekeeper glanced at his son and said to his daughter-in-law: "Don't take it too seriously, fortunately, I opened my mouth to ask my son to get rid of his nationality, and now I am doing a small book office in the yamen. Besides, in the future, let's raise our little grandson well, so that he can study and become an official in the future, and you can wait to be an official grandmother with peace of mind! ”

"That's it, mother, you have to take good care of it, don't let others flatter you in the future, your eyes are blind from crying, you can't see this and you can't hear that, then don't blame me!"

"Fuck off, stupid." The old housekeeper scolded his son, "You are a solid eye, can't you coax your mother nicely?" ”

"Dad~" his eldest son muttered in a low voice, but he just let the old housekeeper hear, "You don't know how to coax your daughter-in-law." ”

"You kid!" The old butler reached out and pulled the shoes on his feet, "You kid is looking for you..."

His son hurriedly hid back, and the housekeeper's daughter-in-law didn't care about crying, so she hurriedly stopped, and after a while, the three of them sat down at the table again and began to drink tea, and the housekeeper's daughter-in-law spoke again this time: "I don't blame Mrs. for this, people say that self-cultivation and the Qi family govern the country and level the world, and the master can't even do well with the Qi family. ”

"Mother, didn't those subordinates say that Mrs. had taken care of the Guogong Mansion before, our Hou Mansion is one level lower than others, not to mention that the title is only passed on to the lord's generation, and the rest are according to the rules, it's not so difficult."

"Alas~ You haven't been in the inner courtyard and don't know, madam, it's such a weak character, who can you control, it's not controlled by the grandmother around you. It seems that when I was a girl's housekeeper at home, I didn't really care about anything. Besides, we are five generations of liehous, what a family business this is, even if it is the new Guogong Mansion, it can't be compared with us, you don't know, when I was in the inner courtyard before, I saw their maids and daughters who had just come from the Guogong Mansion, and when they came to the house to serve, they saw those furnishings, as if they had never seen anything before, and their eyes were glowing green. ”

"No, I've never seen the world before!"

"Alas~ So, what do people say about the fifth generation of Junzi Ze or something, we are all in the sixth life, so let's get ready."

"Listen to you, let's find a way out for ourselves first, the family business over there is really lost, how much can we help. It's also my unfounded worry, how can I say that this huge family business will be lost? ”

……

Xia Liansheng didn't have to listen to it, but while evacuating from the roof, he didn't forget to complain in his heart, didn't this huge family business be sold by Jia Lian overnight, and then built a grand view garden overnight, and he didn't even see a splash, so it was gone?

Back in the house, he looked at Yao Jin's obedient sleeping face, a little worried, why did this involve the Dream of Red Mansions again? If Huanzhu Gege is joking about the story of the Qianlong period, then Dream of Red Mansions is actually an allusion to the story of Yongzheng before and after he came to power. So he doesn't know what to do now, go to his father and stand next to the next emperor and threaten that it is dangerous, but this Lin family is indeed a ship that will sink soon, and it will not be too good to go. In fact, he prefers that this is an open-ended copy, and the ending can be given different endings according to the different branch choices of the characters, so he still has a fight, but if the ending will not change, then what kind of struggle is he struggling, just walk away decisively to live his life.

I thought about it all night, and when the old housekeeper sent someone to invite him to go out with him the next day, he almost didn't get up, but in the end he finally figured it out, he must be the biggest variable in the world, otherwise, Xia Yuhe obviously only has one daughter to find his father, where is a son now? So let's take it one step at a time.

Despite this, he still rejected the idea of the old butler sending someone to see him off, because he planned to inquire about it himself before deciding whether to recognize his relatives or not. Because he is already a showman, in the future, it is equivalent to graduating from high school, although he can't find any decent job, but it's no problem to work to earn money to support himself, he is mainly for Yao Jin, even if there is a little opportunity, he also hopes to let Yao Jin live a good life. It's not that he has doubts about his own ability, but he doesn't want Aunt Yao's son to be in danger with him, his initial idea is that as long as the Holy Enhou can help Yao Jin find a solid family to adopt, he will no longer have worries, and in the future, even if Yao Jin's adoptive parents are not good enough for him, he can also help. Now, I can only take one step at a time.

In particular, if you have the opportunity to take a look at the legendary Sister Lin, it is also worth a trip.

-------------------------------------

Lin Ruhai was nervous in the past two days, and when he reported on his work at the beginning of the year, the emperor asked him to be re-elected for one year to patrol the salt imperial history, but the salt tax had to be increased by 30%. If it were as simple as raising the salt tax by 30%, there would not be so many salt inspectors who died in office. In addition to being rich in the world, these big salt merchants also took refuge in the powerful people of the DPRK and China one by one, and rashly raising the salt tax would infringe on their interests and the rights and interests of the powerful people in the DPRK and China. However, if there is more salt, this matter is more troublesome, not only means that salt farmers have to get up early and work harder to complete this amount of salt, so that it will cause public anger, and take a step back, even if the amount of salt is completed, the price will naturally drop if there is more salt. This series of things made Lin Ruhai as big as a cow. In order to strike a balance between the two, Lin Ruhai decided that he should first go to the field to understand the current salt production capacity of the salt households, and sent out a person two days ago, but he has not come back yet, he can't help but feel a little worried, but he doesn't dare to rashly send someone to find it, in case something happens, he will be to blame.

Two more days later, a man covered in blood knocked on the door of the Lin Mansion at night...
