Chapter 256: Business Matters
The magistrate was drinking porridge, and he almost choked after hearing Lin Yu's words, and when he was relieved, he scolded Lin Yu again: "Ridiculous! How can you, a woman, go to that battlefield? Besides, the responsibility of escorting military rations is heavy, and the distance is long and dangerous, even if I can't find anyone, it is impossible for you to go on an adventure, and you still die as soon as possible! lest your mother worry about ......"
After speaking, the magistrate drank all the porridge in the bowl, took the cloth handed over by the pothos and wiped the corners of his mouth, and then sighed and said to Lin Yu: "You, don't worry too much, these are all men's business after all, and even if I can't find someone to trust for a while, I won't just find a few people who can't be trusted, so I will let them escort the military rations...... I'm still busy today, I have to go to Lord Qincha, so I'll go first, you can accompany your mother......"
As the magistrate spoke, he walked out of the door of the dining room, and walked out of the small courtyard with the master who had been waiting outside, and went to the yamen.
Lin Yu's high heart was deflated by the magistrate, and he stood aside and looked at the direction of the magistrate's departure.
“… Girl, the pothos thinks, the adults are right, those things are in charge of their own men, we will guard our own acres and three points of land, you really want to follow the grain to the front line, Mrs. will definitely be worried and can't sleep......" The pothos put away the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and when she saw that the forest fish was still hanging aside, she couldn't help but walk to her side and open her mouth to persuade.
“…… Well, don't worry......" Hearing this, Lin Yu forced the corners of his mouth to say to the green pothos.
The pothos knew that Lin Yu had something to say to herself, so she also smiled at Lin Yu and said, "Since the girl wants to open it, then the pothos will go and get busy......
“… Well, go for it......" Lin Yu bent the corners of his mouth slightly again and nodded.
When the pothos returned to the stove room, she walked straight to the main house, wanting to talk to Mrs. Zhixian.
Mrs. Zhixian knew that Lin Yu was still sad about the loss of food and silver money at home, and when she saw her enter the house, she explained to her again, and Lin Yu was afraid that she would worry. They were all obedient and nodded, but the thought of wanting to talk to her just now faded, and they didn't want her to know what they thought.
was scolded by the magistrate, and Lin Yu was in no mood to stay in the county office anymore. only said goodbye to Mrs. Zhixian, and went directly to the grain village in Zaozi Lane after coming out.
Zaozi Lane was still lively, and Lin Yu was afraid that Dr. Wu would be comforted after seeing him, so he asked Zhang Qing to go around to the other end of the street. From there, go to Jujube Lane.
But at the gate of the grain village, seeing a group of officials surrounded in front of the door, Lin Yu quickly got out of the car and walked inside.
A guy recognized her, and hurriedly ran over with a bitter face: "Girl, we don't know how to offend the official, they want to take away all the grain from our grain farm, saying that you agreed, and the shopkeeper Qi is negotiating with them......"
Lin Yu nodded, and said as he walked to the waiting room, "Well, I see." You don't have to rush, so don't worry about the others......"
"Yes......" the man replied, and hurriedly led the way for the forest fish in front.
In the hall, although Uncle Qi had received the news from Lin Yu and asked him not to stop the official messenger from coming to collect grain, he felt sorry for giving away so much grain for nothing, so he took a bit of luck, hoping that the official messenger who came to collect grain could open the net and collect less grain and leave, so as not to even lose the grain sold in the grain village.
I saw the forest fish come in. Uncle Qi quickly stood up and said happily as if he had seen a savior: "Yu'er, you are here, this official is going to transport all the grain from our grain farm." Come and plead with the Ruler......"
"Well, uncle, don't worry......" Lin Yu looked at Uncle Qi soothingly, smiled lightly and asked him not to worry, and then blessed the official who also stood up: "Minnu Linyu, I have seen the official ......."
"Girl doesn't have to be polite, please get up quickly, please ......" Seeing that Lin Yu gave a big salute to herself. The official who thought he would have to bother to turn his tongue was startled, and hurriedly said nothing.
"Master Xie......" Lin Yu got up at this time, smiled lightly and went to the chair, and after motioning for the official to sit down, he also sat down.
"Your Excellency is here to transport food?" Lin Yu asked with a smile.
"Yes, the girl is the boss here?" The official replied and asked a rhetorical question.
"What's the boss? It's just that this grain shop was opened in order to sell a grain of his own family before, so adults don't have to laugh at it......" Lin Yu explained when he heard this.
"The girl really doesn't have to be modest, it is great to be able to open such a shop, the lower official admires, but since the girl is the boss here, then the lower official does not need to explain to the shopkeeper, if you want to come to the Lord Qincha, the girl is the most clear, then the official does not bother, let people start transporting grain......" The official and Lin Yu politely said a few words, then said businessfully, and lit up the token on his waist.
"Don't worry, my lord, the people will not stop the adults from transporting grain, but my old shopkeeper is distressed about the grain that is not sold in the grain shop, so I want to ask my lord's subordinates to be merciful...... When the country is in trouble, the husband is responsible, and the adults only need to do things, and they don't have to worry about us......" Lin Yu stood up and showed his attitude.
"Girl, so much food, really all of it was transported?" Uncle Qi saw that Lin Yu did not stop the official, and he was distressed.
"Uncle, now that the front-line soldiers are still fighting bloodily for our safety, how can we let them kill the enemy hungry? Don't worry, if there is no food, we will close the shop first......" Lin Yu endured the discomfort and comforted.
"Hey, it's ......" Uncle Qi sighed and replied when he heard this.
"Uncle, you go back to the room to rest first, I'll come to you later......" Lin Yu walked into Uncle Qi and looked at him worriedly.
"Okay, then I'll go rest for a while, hey, so much food......" Uncle Qi replied tremblingly, turned around and walked outside the house.
"Don't worry, my old shopkeeper is there, the people will persuade her, it's not too early now, my lord still let the officials start moving the grain......" Seeing Uncle Qi out of the hall, Lin Yu looked at the official with a trace of compassion, but when he spoke, he was also disappointed in his heart, if all the grain in this grain village was also transported away, then there would really be only an empty shell left in the house.
"Okay, the girl is so reasonable, the lower official will definitely go back to report to Lord Qincha......" The official arched his hand towards the forest fish with a gloomy face, and also turned around and went out of the house, arranging for people to carry grain.
Lin Yu sat down on the chair calmly, and after a long burst of thought, he slowly stood up and went to the backyard to find Uncle Qi.
When she passed by the storehouse, she saw the officers and soldiers who kept moving food out, she turned a blind eye, forced herself not to care, and looked straight ahead into the main room in the backyard. (To be continued.) )
