Chapter 252: Countermeasures
That night, Lin Yu had something in his heart, and he couldn't sleep over and over, and when he waited for dawn, he fell asleep in a daze.
When she got up, it was already early hour, and Qiu Su had just finished giving her water and freshening her hair, when she saw Apricot running to her in a hurry to tell her that it was the magistrate who had sent a servant to tell them that he and the father-in-law sent by the emperor were already on the way, and it was estimated that they would arrive......
When Lin Yu heard this, he hurriedly asked Qiu Su to come early, ate some indiscriminately, and then took out the land deed and put it at Uncle Yutian.
Just knowing that the magistrate and the emperor sent it would arrive immediately, her heart was extremely nervous, and she was afraid of the unexpected, so she used the excuse of going up the mountain to inspect to calm her mind, and did not let Qiusu follow, only told her to wait for the magistrate to come, and then go up the mountain to inform her.
Mrs. Zhixian and Apricot Ling'er didn't dare to stop her, and several people stayed in the flower hall to do embroidery work and waited for the county magistrate to come.
Lin Yu walked around on the low mountain, looking carefully at his hard work, single-handedly taken care of the family business, his heart was sad, suddenly remembered an old saying, I think it is very appropriate: it is easy to start a business, but it is difficult to keep a business!
Indeed, the speed at which she broke into such a family business was too easy! It's so fast! It's so fast that you feel easy! The two lives before and after combined lived for more than thirty or forty years, she thought that she had already seen through the eyes of the world, and she tried her best to show people in a low-key manner, and the good luck of the heavens was backed by the prince Xiu, the prince of Zhao Yuan, and the magistrate of the county, who knew that in the end, she still couldn't resist the harm of the traitor!
She really couldn't figure it out, where did she offend Qin Juren? Let him harm himself again and again by such unscrupulous means?
Lin Yu suddenly became angry in his heart, and a fighting spirit that refused to admit defeat ignited. Even if he is the nephew of the popular prime minister in front of the emperor? Could it be that there is no royal law in this world? I have worked hard for so many years, and I finally live the life I have today! Seeing that Qi'er Ling'er has grown up and started a family. If she can't get through this time, what's the point of her crossing over?
Remembering that he had promised to protect Qi'er Ling'er for the rest of his life, Lin Yu spurned himself, and now he felt sorry for himself. Could it be that when you encounter difficulties, you don't dare to fight for it, and you only think about how to retreat?
No way! In any case, she can't be defeated first. Even if the emperor listens to the slander of traitorous ministers, there will always be someone who will avenge himself, so. What she should do now is to go back and entertain the people sent by the emperor, even if he is Prime Minister Qin's henchman, she has to deal with it carefully. So as not to fall into the hands of others! Even if she has to donate all the food money in the end. She also wants to try her best to keep the fields, low mountains, and grain farms!
Thinking of this, the forest fish stopped wandering, turned around and walked down the mountain. Halfway through, I happened to see Qiu Su who came up the mountain to find her, and hurriedly told her that the magistrate and the Qin were here, and Uncle Yutian was greeting......
Lin Yu heard this. He nodded at her and ran straight down the hill.
Back in the courtyard. The officials and officials were already standing in a row, the county magistrate and the Qin cha were already sitting in the hall, and Uncle Yutian was carefully waiting on one side.
Lin Yu ignored the surrounding officials and officials, and stepped into the hall, Uncle Yutian finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her, and quickly greeted her, and smiled cautiously: "Big girl, you are back, Lord Qincha and Lord Zhixian have already arrived......"
Lin Yu's heart was no longer nervous when she got up in the morning, she looked at Uncle Yutian, lowered her mouth and smiled softly: "I know, I have worked hard for you, Uncle Yutian......"
A man sitting in the first place in the hall with a thin face, sharp eyes, wearing a hat, and a man with wide sleeves and the magistrate sitting at the bottom heard the voice of Uncle Yutian and Lin Yu, and turned his head to look out of the door, Lin Yu quickly gathered his mind, and hurriedly stepped forward with a light smile and saluted the two: "Minnu Lin Yu, meet the Lord Zhixian ......" and looked at Na Qincha, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "I don't know what this lord is called?" ”
"Don't be rude! In front of him, this is Lord Qincha sent by the emperor, don't hurry up and salute! The magistrate pretended to be annoyed and shouted.
"Yes, the folk girl is guilty, and she has seen Lord Qincha...... Lin Yu pretended to be timid and cautious and bowed to the Qincha.
"Get up, why are you coming back now?" Lord Nachincha smiled unreservedly.
"Back to the adults, the folk girl was patrolling the mountains, and she didn't know that the two adults were coming, so she couldn't meet them from afar, and she asked the two adults to forgive their sins...... Lin Yu hurriedly explained.
"That's it, this official is also here on the emperor's order today, I don't know if I think you came, so I will forgive you for the time being......" Lord Qincha frowned slightly.
"Thank you, for your kindness......" Lin Yu immediately thanked him.
“… You don't need to thank me, wait until you know the purpose of my visit, and then ponder whether to thank me......" Lord Qincha was unmoved, and said coldly.
"My lord is ordered by the emperor to go to the contemptible land, there must be something important, although Lin Yu is a civilian, but he also swears allegiance to the emperor, even if the emperor wants the life of the people's daughter, the people's daughter will not complain, but has to thank the emperor and the lord for giving the people's daughter this opportunity......" Lin Yu pretended to be loyal, and then said with retreat: "I know that the emperor is kind and benevolent, how can he take people's lives at will?" Thinking that the adult is a person next to the emperor, he will definitely not be bad...... Forgive the people's random speculation, my lord must have come here to collect grain and grass......"
"Oh? What do you mean by that? Lord Qincha was noncommittal about Lin Yu's remarks, but he was full of curiosity about her last sentence, and looked at her inquiringly.
"Back to the adult's words, now the invasion of the gold thieves has spread throughout the entire Huaikou Town, some time ago, the magistrate issued an announcement, saying that the front-line military food is tight, and the imperial court asked the giants and gentry to raise grain and grass...... Don't hide it from the adults, now there is a righteous brother in the people's daughter's family who is fighting the enemy in front, and although the people's daughter is a woman, she also hates the gold thief to the bone, looking at the soldiers in front of her to annihilate the thief in one fell swoop, so she has already prepared to donate the grain and grass that she has saved over the years, but she is still in the future and told the county magistrate, and the two adults are here today...... The people's daughter thought that the people's daughter had never committed anything, and the adult was sent down by the emperor, so she must have come for this matter, I don't know if you can guess right? "Lin Yu said righteously.
"You've wanted to donate food to the front for a long time? And all of them? Lord Qincha asked in surprise, and even the magistrate and Uncle Yutian on the side looked at Lin Yu with wide eyes.
"Yes, what the folk girl said is true, if you don't believe it, you can go to the granary to check, where are there already several carts of grain......" Lin Yu nodded affirmatively, afraid that Lord Qincha would not believe it, and deliberately let him go to see the granary. (To be continued......)
