Chapter 171: Preparation Before Departure
Since Lin Zhu decided to move to the vicinity of the capital, after thinking about it for a few days, he thought about selling some industries in Song County, and now the timing is just right, and it will be in time for the beginning of spring later, and they are all busy farming, so it is not easy to make a move.
In addition to Zhuyuan, she wants to stay, such as Fuzhuang and Anyuan, as well as the house in Song County and the small village in Linjia Village, she wants to make a move.
Originally, she still had some nostalgia for the small village in Linjia Village, but after thinking about it, keeping it might one day Steward Lin and the Wang family find it back, although she was not looking forward to the arrival of her biological parents, but she didn't want her biological parents to come for more bloody things, such as the bridge break that often appears in novels and TV, what many years later, finding her biological flesh and blood is actually to marry someone she doesn't like for her beloved daughter who is raised by her side, or to please a powerful person to be a concubine or something, thinking about it makes people get goosebumps.
So Lin Zhu decisively decided to sell it too.
When Lin Zhu was going to the capital, she only told Lin Changqing, the village chief of Linjia Village, and Aunt Li.
"Xiaozhu, if you leave, my aunt will miss you very much." Although because of her grandson and the fact that there are so many people in Lin Zhu's family, Aunt Li has come to Lin Zhu's house less often, but her mind is as usual, "Xiaoyu and Xiaoqing will miss you very much." ”
"That is, how can you want to go to the capital so well? It's unfamiliar with the people. Lin Changqing was also a little reluctant, he changed from dislike for Lin Zhu at the beginning to his sincere love now.
"Uncle Lin, auntie, you also know that the Li family in Song County came to my door to make trouble a few days ago, and the Li family and the county master still have in-laws. Although Grandpa Gan and Lu Zhangshi of Muyue Commercial Bank came forward. settled this matter, but in the end let them hold a grudge, and when the godfather left, the Muyue Commercial Bank was beyond the reach of the whip, and they were bullied by them and did not reason. Lin Zhu told the two of them about the Li family's apology.
"Then Miss Dong can't make peace from it?" Aunt Li still hopes that Lin Zhu can stay.
"No," Lin Zhu shook his head gently, "Last time, because of the quick catch, the county magistrate grounded Sister Zhen without asking, and I can't trouble her anymore." ”
After hearing what happened to Dong Yuzhen, Aunt Li and Lin Changqing were also embarrassed. is so unfair to his daughter. This Dong Zhixian is not very good, no wonder he is embarrassed with someone like the Li family.
"Besides, when Second Brother Lin enters Beijing to take the exam, you can also go to me. Later you will also settle there. Lin Zhuyi talked about Lin Hongyuan. Aunt Li was a little happy.
"He is still far away from going to the capital to catch the exam." In fact, Lin Hongyuan has already been admitted to Xiucai. Lin Zhu also gave a heavy gift for this. Now Lin Hongyuan and his wife Li are in the town, and they will go to study in a better school in Song County after the New Year. The gentleman in the town said that he would have to study for a few more years before he could be examined again, and he was specially recommended a gentleman. It's just in the county seat. ”
"Really? That's great, if you go to the county seat, live in my house over there. "Originally, I wanted to sell the house, but now I just let Lin Hongyuan live in it, and it saves them from looking for a house again.
"How's that going to work?" Aunt Li disagreed, she couldn't get cheap with Lin Zhu anymore, except for the first year that Aunt Li helped Lin Zhu, for so long, it was Lin Zhu who helped their family again, this time Aunt Li said that she was embarrassed to let Lin Hongyuan and his wife live in Lin Zhu's house. "You're going to the capital, then the house will be sold, save you a lot of trouble for it, and when you want to come back, you can live in the eldest mother's house."
"Auntie, I'm leaving in a hurry, the house will definitely sell very cheaply, it's better to let Second Brother Lin and Second Sister-in-law live there first, and help me look at the house." Besides, Second Brother Lin is also a person with status now, and it is too aggrieved that he can't live anymore. Lin Zhu persuaded.
"What kind of person with status, even if he can become an official in the future, he can't let him forget his roots." Lin Changqing saw it very clearly, and the requirements for Lin Hongyuan were naturally very high.
No matter what Lin Zhu said, Lin Changqing and Aunt Li were determined not to want Lin Zhu's house, and Lin Zhu would no longer force it. There is also the village school in Linjia Village, which is also Lin Zhu's house, this is left in the village and regarded as the property of Linjia Village, which is a good thing, Lin Changqing did not refuse, but Lin Zhu also confessed, and after she left, he announced it in the village.
The last thing is the village where Lin Zhu lives now and the small green mountain, Aunt Li and Lin Changqing discussed it, and after Lin Zhu left, she asked who wanted it in the village.
Lin Zhu was very grateful for their help, and the two families who had nothing to do with each other, because of Aunt Li's kindness at the earliest, made them get along like a family today. To be honest, Lin Zhu was really reluctant to give them up.
After arranging the affairs of Linjia Village, Fuzhuang and Anyuan are left.
Lin Zhu has two preferred people, that is, Niu Dahu and Mrs. Lin. Lin Zhu felt that Niu Dahu was buying Fuzhuang because he was late, otherwise, he would not have stopped at Fuzhuang, and asked Zhao Da for a long time. Now he has a relationship with Chang Tianlei, and the transfer to him can be regarded as the face of the Chang family, and he is grateful for his help in dealing with the Wang family.
There are more fields in Anyuan, and there is a very good yard built, Lin Zhu thought, if Mrs. Lin is willing to buy it, Dong Yuzhen will have a place to relax after being wronged, plus the special varieties she sent over, it will be good to be her dowry.
So Lin Zhu wrote to the two of them separately. What she didn't expect was that both of them replied quickly. The big cattle even came to the door in person. And Mrs. Lin was inconvenient to go out, so she also sent her most trusted mother Zhao to talk to Lin Zhu in detail.
"Miss Lin," Niu Dahu entered Lin Zhu's house, and first met with Dr. Zhang and her, "The girl went to the capital, and Niu didn't have anything to give, so she prepared some Cheng Yi and looked forward to it, Miss Lin don't dislike it, please accept it." ”
"Master Niu is too polite. Thank you. Lin Zhu wanted to shirk, but under the guidance of Doctor Zhang's eyes, he still accepted it, and of course he had to be polite in his mouth.
"Where, where." Niu Dahu was very happy to see her accept it, which was related to whether he could continue to cooperate with Lin Zhu in the future. Now it seems that the situation is very good.
"What does Master Niu think about Fuzhuang?" Since he came, Niu Dahu must have an idea, so Lin Zhu asked directly.
"Miss Lin can think of Niu for the first time, I am really grateful, I can't hide it, when the Zhang family sold the land, you bought it before me by coincidence, and I didn't buy it at that time, I still deeply regret it, now since Miss Lin wants to sell it, then Niu will accept it." The big cattle didn't even ask about the price, and directly set the decision.
Seeing that he was so happy, Lin Zhu was not hypocritical, and sold it to a big cattle family at the original price at that time. In fact, if the big cattle don't want it, Lin Zhu can sell it for more money, but since he wants it, Lin Zhu naturally has to be more generous. Such a big family not only inherited Lin Zhu's affection, but in his heart, he would definitely remember that there was also the favor of General Chang's mansion.
After Niu Dahu knew Lin Zhu's thoughts, he admired it very much, and couldn't help but sigh how good it would be if his children could behave like Lin Zhu. Then he doesn't have to worry about having no successor.
Mother Zhao arrived at Lin Zhu's house by car, and first took out the gift that Mrs. Lin gave to Lin Zhu.
"Miss Lin, my wife is very grateful to the girl for remembering her and the eldest lady, this is a pair of jade bracelets that the lady has treasured for many years, and now let me bring it, give one to the girl, and give another to the eldest lady, Mrs. hopes that the girl and the eldest lady will always be close to each other." Mother Zhao opened the box, and the jade bracelet inside appeared in front of Lin Zhu's eyes.
Warm and delicate, the jade bracelet in front of you reveals an indescribable warmth. "Mother Zhao must thank Aunt Xie Yu for me. It's so valuable. Lin Zhu picked up the jade bracelet and stroked it lovingly.
"As long as the girl likes it, the lady will be happy." Zhao's mother is very good at talking. "The girl's letter, after Mrs. read it, she is also very grateful to Miss Xie, and she can think of her." Zhao's mother paused and looked around. A few of the subordinates she brought with her retreated outside the house with great interest.
"The situation of the lady and the eldest lady in the house, the girl is also clear, although the lady also has some marriage, but over the years, because of the injustice of the master, it has also consumed a lot. Madame has always been afraid that the eldest lady's dowry will be affected in the future, but now because of the girl, she will first get a small village of 100 acres from the Li family, and then she can take over the Zhuangzi in the girl's hand, and Mrs. will have a lot more money in her hands. Mother Zhao's words were sincere and some straightforward words, which made Lin Zhu very sympathetic to the situation of Mrs. Lin and Dong Yuzhen.
"Mother Zhao, please tell Aunt Yu, everything will be fine." Mrs. Lin will definitely understand these words. Since Lin Zhu and Dong Yuzhen became friends, they always felt that she was very close to her, and it seemed to be like some blood and blood, so Lin Zhu didn't mind helping them when they were a little unhappy.
"The slave maid is the first lady and the eldest lady Xie Lu Xie girl." Zhao's mother is also a good person, as soon as she heard Lin Zhu's words, she knew that Lin Zhu was capable and willing to help. She immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Zhu. Lin Zhu didn't have time to stop it.
"Mother Zhao, what are you doing, please hurry up." Lin Zhu had no choice but to help her up.
"The slave is grateful for the girl's kindness." Mother Zhao said with a little choked up, "The eldest lady has such a sister as a girl, it is really a lucky star." ”
Mother Zhao's compliment made Lin Zhu a little ashamed, she felt that she was just helping. I didn't expect to let her do this big gift. (To be continued......)
