Chapter 011: Lin Jinyu met the dumb overlord by chance

But it was said that the Lin family's side, because the Lin family's sisters and brothers only returned to Beijing yesterday, although the subordinates got the letter in advance, they lit the fire dragon a few days earlier, and the house was also smoked with incense, but there was a bit of humidity. Lin Jue didn't feel anything, but Daiyu was delicate and frail, and she was afraid that she would not get used to it.

"Our yard is only three entrances, which is incomparable with the house in Yangzhou, but it is also exquisite." The courtyard of the Lin family is not big, but the location is good, and the neighbors on the left and right are all working in the Hanlin Academy.

The Lin family's garden is a typical Jiangnan style garden, which was left by the original owner of the house. But I didn't want to be sent to Yangzhou by the emperor, and I became the eyes and ears of the emperor, so this courtyard was empty, and I thought that I would go to Beijing every year to report on my work, so I didn't sell it, and now the brothers and sisters just moved in.

"If it's getting cold today, it's not suitable for breaking ground, and when spring comes next year, my sister will look at something that doesn't fit her eyes, let's call someone to change it." Lin Jue himself is not a picky person, he has no requirements for food and accommodation, this is an old mansion, he looks at it, if he wants to see Daiyu.

Counting the previous three years, Daiyu also came to the Lin Mansion in Beijing for the first time. The Lin family's house only has three entrances, and it is really not much in the capital where nobles are everywhere. And because the house has not been inhabited by the owner, only a few family members guarded it, although it will be repaired every year, but it still inevitably has a sense of decay.

Despite this, Daiyu only glanced at it and fell in love with it. As the saying goes: the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own kennels, Daiyu originally felt that this was vulgar, but now she thinks it is true. The yard is not big, it is not as good as Jiafu, and the scenery in the garden cannot be compared with Jiafu. Even so, Daiyu still felt very comfortable living in it.

"It's not much to move, it's just that the courtyard where my father and two mother's spiritual seats are located is a little dilapidated, I wonder if I should repair it?"

This should have been something that Lin Jue, as the head of the Lin family, should worry about, but since Daiyu returned to the Lin Mansion, Lin Jue became the shopkeeper and handed over all the matters in the mansion to Daiyu. However, this matter is not as good as others, that is, Lin Jue is not a director, and Daiyu is not good not to explain to Lin Jue.

Lin Jue was stunned when he heard this, he hadn't paid attention to this matter, after all, he had lived in modern times for too long, and it was always difficult to really change some concepts. "What my sister said is very true, but my brother owes it to consideration."

"Where is my brother, my brother is busy, and all the affairs in the house were handed over to me, so I shouldn't let my brother worry about these things."

After Daiyu returned to the house, she took over the housekeeping affairs in the house, and with Feng Ju and Mama Fang by her side, Lin Jue had nothing to worry about.

Most of the servants from Yangzhou Linfu were let out, and some were willing to follow their masters into Beijing, some of them were directly brought over by Lin Jue, and the other part stayed in Yangzhou temporarily. When the industry over there is almost handled, Lin Cheng will bring it over. There were only a few servants in the Lin Mansion in Beijing, and with these people coming from Yangzhou, it was a little insufficient. Daiyu found a reliable tooth with the servants in Beijing, and prepared to buy some rough subordinates.

This qiē Lin Jue doesn't care, he is carrying Lin Ruhai's secret book, but he has no official name, so he can only find a way to dredge up the relationship and try his best to hand over the secret book to the emperor.

This secret book is Lin Ruhai's life talisman, but it is also a life talisman for their brothers and sisters, no one knows that there is a secret book of this secret book, so Lin Jue does not dare to hand over this secret book to others. Nowadays, he has no one behind him to be reliable, and he doesn't dare to trust others lightly, even if it is the confidant friend mentioned by Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai has been operating officialdom for more than ten years, and he has indeed made one or two friends, but people go to everything, and the interests of officialdom are maximized, Lin Jue really can't believe people's conscience. What's more, this matter is very involved, involving the secrets of the royal family, if the secret book is handed over to others and handed over to the emperor, it will not be leaked, and I am afraid that I will not be able to get rid of it.

The involvement in this is really not something that can be explained in one or two sentences.

However, Lin Jue has his own Lin Jue's method, he can't face the saint directly, but he can also let others face the saint in a roundabout way, waiting for the emperor to summon him. The person chosen by Lin Jue is the emperor's mother-in-law, the empress dowager Chen's nephew Chen Yejun.

Speaking of this Chen Yejun, Lin Jue only saw his name when he was reading in his previous life, because there was not much to say, and the book was not written by one person, Lin Jue did not dare to sit down. In this life, when he listened to Lin Ruhai's analysis of the situation in Beijing, he deliberately pointed out this name, and only then did he know that he was the emperor's confidant, but he did not get involved in officialdom, but was often with the sons and daughters of some dignitaries, and he should be looking for information for the emperor.

Lin Jue's plan is to follow Chen Yejun's path, but this path is not so easy to follow. Brother Gongzi in the capital, Lin Jue is only familiar with one person, Jia Lian.

I heard that after Jia Lian brought the woman back, she was treated like a jewel, and now that she has a body, then her "benefactor" has found the door, are you still afraid that Jia Lian will not do things for herself?

The day after bringing Daiyu back, Lin Jue handed Jia Lian a post and asked him to come out for a gathering at noon the next day. Jia Lian received the post, how could there be no reason. He can take Cuihe as a concubine, Lin Jue made a lot of efforts at the beginning, and now he has a son, not to mention the joy in his heart.

Although after taking Cuihe back to the house, because of Wang Xifeng's trouble, the old lady was very preachy, and she might as well say that she leaked her mouth, and was provoked by the old lady. However, Jia Lian had already known the possible reaction of the Jia family from Lin Jue in advance, and Cuihe was warm and petty, but he didn't take Jia's mother's words to heart, but felt that Lin Jue was a rare real person.

Jia Lian is a little greedy and lustful, but he is quite proficient in general affairs, and it is really easy to match people like this. "Cousin Lin is coming to Beijing this time, is he going to live permanently?"

After talking about business, Lin Jue didn't care about greeting Jia Lian more, "That's right, because you have to prepare for the exam in three years, it is always more convenient in Beijing." ”

Jia Lian was happy when he heard this, "It's been three years since Yangzhou was separated, and your sister-in-law has been eight months pregnant, hahaha, you're going to add a nephew." ”

Lin Jue smiled when he heard this: "Looking at the second cousin, it seems that this little sister-in-law is very in line with my cousin's wishes." "In a concubine like this, calling a sister-in-law is really too high-minded, so that the housewife listens to it, and I am afraid that it will be regarded as an insult to myself. However, there are also masters who spoil their concubines and kill their wives, and use the concubine room as the main room, and they outsiders have no choice but to follow the masters.

"Thank you cousin for your success." Jia Lian touched his chin and smiled, giving Lin Jue a look that understood each other.

Lin Jue laughed, he didn't say much, this kind of thing, everyone has no face to say it, he won't admit anything. The woman named Cuihe is just a woman from a good family that Jia Lian met by chance, what does it have to do with his Lin Mansion? I believe that Cuihe will not say much, after all, there is a big difference between a good concubine and a cheap concubine.

After a few drinks with Jia Lian, Lin Jue was slightly drunk, refused Jia Lian's intention to take him to "see and understand", and left.

Seeing that Lin Jue was drunk, the little servant didn't dare to ask him to ride a horse, helped him to rest in the teahouse next door, and then told his buddy to take care of him, and ran out to call a carriage quickly.

The carriage and horses are not far away, and the little guy trots all the way, back and forth, and it doesn't take long, not to mention that Lin Jue is not a person who will cause trouble, and the little guy will put him in the teahouse for a while, and he can rest assured.

However, everything is a lot of coincidences, and even Lin Jue himself didn't expect that he would meet the stupid overlord Xue Pan in this situation.

At this time, most of the teahouses have storytellers or singers stationed in the store to solicit customers, if you want to talk about business, there is also a private room upstairs to facilitate conversation. Lin Jue didn't go upstairs because he was just taking a break for a while, but drank tea downstairs and listened to a little song.

In the past, when Lin Jue came to the teahouse, most of them wanted to talk to people in a private room, but they didn't go to the first floor for recreation. Now I have nothing to do to listen to a little song, but it is pleasant. Lin Jue is a little drunk again, and now he asks for a pot of tea and drinks it temporarily, and he can also sober up.

Lin Jue half-squinted his eyes, and was listening to the rise of the song, when he heard the noisy sound over there, the little song was broken, and the sound of a woman sobbing came from the stage. Lin Jue opened his eyes and saw a man standing on the stage with his back to everyone, grabbing the woman's wrist and shouting loudly.

Lin Jue has never seen Xue Pan, so he will not recognize him, let alone care about his affairs. Now this situation is quite in line with the kind of bully who robbed the people's girls in the TV series in the previous life, at this time, a certain hero suddenly appeared, and came to a scene where the hero saved the beauty and cleaned up the bully. Lin Jue watched the excitement with great interest, and saw which brain-pumping hero would suddenly appear and teach this brainless guy a lesson.

Xue Panyuan is a gentleman, since he came to Beijing, because he lived in his uncle's house, he restrained for a while. Later, he became familiar with the juniors in the Jia family, and every day someone led him to watch the flowers, drink, gamble*, and feel more comfortable than before. On this day, I made an appointment to meet upstairs, because he arrived early, and he was impatient to stay alone in the small room, so he had tea downstairs first.

He is a vegetarian, and he was originally drunk when he listened to the song, so he took a closer look at the woman who was singing.

Xue Pan has always been accustomed to being the king and hegemonic in Jinling, but now that he has arrived in Beijing, he has been mixed with a bunch of gentlemen, where do you know what convergence is. Since he fell in love with it, Xue Pan jumped directly onto the stage and stretched out his hand to pull the woman, "Little lady, you can make a lot of money by singing here, why don't you go back with your Uncle Xue and keep your delicious food and spicy drinks." ”

The woman was grabbed by the wrist, unable to break free, her face flushed with shame, and she began to sob. The old man with the erhu next to him shrunk his hand and stood there, looking like he dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak. The shopkeeper thought that he often saw such things, so he only looked up at the other side, and then lowered his head and continued to take inventory.

Lin Jue took in all the qiē and couldn't help but sympathize with the stupid big man on stage. In a place like the capital, a brick can be smashed to death by killing a relative of the emperor, how can anyone provoke it? Since the old man and a weak woman dare to show their heads and sing, they must have relied on it, and this stupid big man has been tricked and doesn't know it!

Lin Jue didn't care about this matter, the family had already found a carriage to come back to pick him up, so he recruited the shopkeeper to settle the money and prepare to go back.

was walking out, but I heard someone say: "You little lady is not long-eyed, what is Uncle Xue's identity, it is your blessing to be able to take a fancy to you." That old man, how much did you buy this girl? If you are doubled, you will not suffer a loss. ”

Xue family, Xue Pan? Lin Jue stopped and looked back at the people on the stage. Xue Pan has not yet tied his crown, but his body is not small, and his tendons and flesh are gathered in his clothes, and he looks very powerful. He was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his eyebrows were in the sideburns, and if he ignored the lustful color in his eyes, he was also a handsome young man.

If this person is Xue Pan, then what he did before is also reasonable. Lin Jue said secretly: This Xue Pan deserves to be called Xue Nerd, he is really stupid and stupid.

Although he was a little close to Xue Pan because of Jiafu, Lin Jue didn't want to recognize this idiot. However, his pause has already attracted Xue Pan's attention. After all, although Lin Jue was dressed in plain clothes and did not wear any gold, silver and jade jewelry, the style of the whole body could not be concealed. Especially in this teahouse, it stands out from the crowd.

Xue Pan's eyes immediately straightened, and the hand holding the woman unconsciously let go. jumped off the stage, walked in front of Lin Jue, bowed down, Xue Pan smiled: "This little brother, in Xia Xue Pan, I don't know what the little brother is called, where does he live?" ”

Lin Jue smiled secretly, this Xue Pan didn't understand anything, and he didn't know that there was such a courtesy. "It turns out that you are the cousin of the Xue family, the younger brother Lin Jue, and you are still a little related to Cousin Xue."

"Lin Jue?" Xue Pan touched his chin and thought about it, "Ah", and suddenly realized, "It turned out to be the cousin of the Lin family." Xue Pan held up Lin Jue's arm familiarly, "I've heard my cousin's name a long time ago, and I haven't had a chance to see each other, I don't want to see you here today, it seems that we really have fate." ”

Lin Jue didn't hate Xue Pan much, compared to the rest of the Xue family, Xue Pan was still a little bloody. "The last time I went to Jiafu, I heard my uncle mention Cousin Xue, and I didn't want to see him this time."

Xue Pan smiled and blushed, he was a little self-aware, he knew that he had a bad reputation, and he wouldn't have anything good to say about his uncle. He didn't care about this, but at this time, in front of Lin Jue, thinking of what he had done in the past, he felt very embarrassed, and he didn't want Cousin Lin to know.

Lin Jue didn't want to entangle with Xue Pan more, so he smiled and said: "Cousin Xue, because the younger brother has something at home, I'm afraid I can't accompany him today." After a few days, I'll invite my cousin to get together in the next post, and my cousin shouldn't refuse. ”

Xue Pan didn't want to let Lin Jue go like this, but he didn't know how to keep it, so he had to watch Lin Jue leave.

"Uncle Xue, what should I do with this woman?" When Lin Jue walked away, the person who spoke for Xue Pan before asked out loud.

Xue Pan frowned impatiently when he heard this: "What kind of treatment, what kind of vulgar powder, where can the uncle look at it, but just tease her." Okay, what's nonsense, I've been waiting for this old man for a long time, and I haven't seen anyone coming, and the uncle is gone! ”

Xue Pan flicked his sleeves and left the teahouse without looking back. The rest of the men just now glared hatefully at the woman who was still crying on the stage, and couldn't help but scold: "Waste! ”

Xue Panyou didn't know that he had escaped because of Lin Jue, and he was still secretly thinking about how to ask the Jia family where Lin Jue's family lived.
