Chapter 260: Inspecting the Small Sloping Pastures

Hearing that Lin Zhu hadn't eaten, as if he had something on his mind, Chang Shi was the first to think of Aunt Chang who was still in the General's Mansion. However, with his current relationship with the General's Mansion, he can't go directly to her. It seems that other avenues need to be found.

Chang Shi discussed it with Feng Yuanbo and the others, and decided to put this matter aside for a while, and when she found an opportunity to bring Aunt Chang over, she would come forward to inquire.

The Wang family, Mrs. Wang, through the narration of Wan and others, also knew what happened to the Daolin family in Tianyou Temple, and couldn't help but gloat and be happy.

However, because there were happier things, they didn't pay much attention to the Lin family's affairs.

"Mother, the second sister's family's residence has been sorted out." The return of Wang Yurou's family is a major concern for Mrs. Wang, so Wan is also very concerned.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Mrs. Wang was also very satisfied with this daughter-in-law. Wan said a few more modest words, and the scene between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was harmonious.

"I heard that the Lin family also went to incense?" Mrs. Wang suddenly mentioned the incident of the previous day.

"Well, the seventh young master of the Lin family ran away, and it happened to let Miss Xiaozhu run into it, but her kindness, people didn't appreciate it." Wan's grievances for Lin Zhu.

"Hmph, Lin family." Old Madam Wang snorted disdainfully, "Let Yan'er tell that Lin girl, stay away from the Lin family in the future, although she is also surnamed Lin, it is much better than the Lin family." Mrs. Wang's implication was to agree with the friendship between Wang Qingyan and Lin Zhu.

"Don't worry, mother, I will definitely let Yan'er tell her." Wan Shi was secretly happy in her heart, her impression of Lin Zhu was getting better and better. But because of the old lady's face, it is difficult to show it, and since the old lady Wang has already approved it, then she has no scruples.

"Mother, Yan'er's face is all good, shall we hold a garden party to celebrate?" Wan Shi saw that Old Madam Wang was in a good mood, so he proposed.

"Well, yes, let those who have laughed at our Yan'er take a good look." Old Madam Wang was also ready to raise her eyebrows and exhale.

Wan responded with a smile. At this time, the two hostesses of the Wang family had the same idea. Not only summoned the people in the capital, Miss Wang's beautiful appearance has improved, but also to find a good home for her granddaughter. It's about the same time.

On the other hand, after Dong Yuzhen and Mrs. Lin returned home. Didn't get any news about Lin Zhu from the Lin family. That's just a little relieved.

"Mother, grandmother, they won't hold a grudge against Sister Xiaozhu, right?" Dong Yuzhen was a little worried.

"No, it's too late for them to thank Xiaozhu." Although Mrs. Lin comforted Dong Yuzhen so much. But she didn't actually think in her heart that anyone in the Lin family would think of thanking Lin Zhu. After all, the status of the Lin family is there, maybe they will wonder if Lin Zhu has ulterior motives.

"That's good," Dong Yuzhen put her mind at ease, paused for a while, and said again, "Mother, my father has been asking me about Sister Xiaozhu recently, I don't know what to do?" ”

"What did he inquire about?" Mrs. Lin frowned, Dong Jisheng inquired about Lin Zhu's news in a good manner, which was obviously not a good thing.

"Dad just asked Sister Xiaozhu if she had sent anything to our house, watermelon or something?" Dong Yuzhen looked at Mrs. Lin's somewhat serious face carefully. "However, I said no, and I also told my dad that I had very little contact with her."

"Hmm," Mrs. Lin listened and nodded with satisfaction. "Xiaozhu's matter, no matter what, don't say it out of your mouth, and what you say is also the truth, don't care too much about your father." Knowing that Dong Jisheng suddenly mentioned Lin Zhu was nothing good, Mrs. Lin warned Dong Yuzhen.

"I know my mother." Dong Yuzhen nodded. As if remembering something, he said to Mrs. Lin, "Mother, I heard that my father wanted to get some special watermelons to give away, but he couldn't buy them, he thought that even if there were no special watermelons in Xiaozhu's place, there would be high-grade watermelons, is it because of these that he will ask me about her news?" ”

"There is also this possibility, after all, the high-grade watermelons in Linjia Village are also famous in Song County." Mrs. Lin also agrees with Dong Yuzhen's view.

"But Xiaozhu is no longer in Linjia Village now, and your father can't control her head, just say no." Now that Dong Jisheng has come to the capital to take up his post, his temper seems to be even greater, because of the money provided by Liu's mother's family to open the way, it seems that he is going well.

In addition, although the Lin family may not be able to value Dong Jisheng, they still have some in-law relationship with the Lin family, how can they take care of one or two, so Dong Jisheng is also much better for the three of them, mother and son, nothing more than wanting to have a closer relationship with the Lin family, so that it is possible to get more help from the Lin family.

In addition, the eldest son Dong Wenbo has already entered the academy to study by relying on the relationship of the Lin family, and the second and third sons that Dong Jisheng values have not yet found a suitable academy.

Dong Jisheng has always thought that the second child's studies are much better than the eldest one, and under Liu's encouragement, he even gave birth to the position of letting the second child replace the eldest in the college.

However, after all, the academy was not specially opened for him, and it was not a place where he could do whatever he wanted, so his idea never came true.

Seeing that Dong Wenbo's studies were getting better and better, Liu was also secretly anxious, so she wanted Dong Jisheng to find some way to send her two sons to study in the college.

It's not that they didn't want to follow the path of the Lin family, but when Mrs. Lin entered Beijing, she wanted to ask a famous teacher to guide Dong Wenbo, but Dong Jisheng refused, and now he has no face to let Mrs. Lin ask for the Lin family.

This is why Dong Jisheng asked Dong Yuzhen about Lin Zhu's situation. I want to get some of the most sought-after high-grade watermelons in Beijing from Lin Zhu as gifts.

Dong Jisheng didn't find Lin Zhu directly because he didn't know that the Muyue Trading House in Ludao was powerful when he arrived in the capital, and he actually did all the business in the palace, so he didn't act rashly. I used to think about revenge and the like, but I have long been thrown out of the clouds.

Of course, Dong Jisheng was very dissatisfied with his wife and daughter's resignation, and he had a gloomy face for several days.

But Mrs. Lin didn't care, firstly, she was used to Dong Jisheng's villainous appearance, and secondly, Dong Wenbo was about to take a break, as a mother, Mrs. Lin was very proud to wait for her excellent son to come home.

Of course, Dong Jisheng's little abacus Lin Zhu doesn't know the way, and she now has more important things.

Lin Zhu bought nearly 20 head of cattle, and now they are grazing on the slopes, and Lin Zhu has also built some houses and cowsheds on the slopes, one is that the cattle herders will live there, and the other is that the cattle will also live in the cowshed.

The weather was not bad on this day, and the cattle herding person was also Lin Ping, who was brought over from Song County, and there was another named Lin Yi. Lin Ping came over and told Feng Yuanbo about the herd.

Of the cattle that Lin Zhu raised as beef cattle, four cows were pregnant. Hearing the news, Feng Yuanbo was very excited, and Lin Zhu was also very excited.

So Lin Zhu and Feng Yuanbo, under the leadership of Lin Ping, went to the slope to check on the pregnant cow.

There are about 20 acres of grass planted on the slope of Lin Zhu, and now I can see that the growth of grass is very good.

However, Feng Yuanbo and the others were somewhat unhappy with planting grass in forests and bamboos at first, and in their opinion, planting grass was not as cost-effective as growing food.

Now it seems that if you don't grow so many cows, you will be tired to death just by going out to cut grass for the cows. After planting the pasture, it is not necessary to manage it too much, and more than 20 cows can be managed by two people, so it seems that it is very necessary to plant the pasture.

Lin Zhu and the others first checked the growth of the grass. Lin Zhu also folded a piece of pasture grass and looked at it, although the grass was dark green, it was still very tender, and the cow should love to eat it.

"Girl, our grass grows so well, those cows love to eat it, I think they are fatter than when they first came." Lin Ping is a talkative person, and he introduced Lin Zhu and them as he walked, including those cultivated cattle, he explained them one by one, which cow was what it looked like, and what characteristics it had were clearly remembered, and it seemed that he was a cowboy.

Lin Zhu and Feng Yuanbo followed Lin Ping to the place where cattle were usually grazing, and Lin Ping beckoned to Lin Yi.

"Girl, Steward Feng." Lin Yi greeted the two, and then stood aside without speaking, it seemed that he was a man of few words.

"Where's the pregnant cow?" The sun was a little big, and Lin Zhu covered the sun with his hands and looked in the direction of the cattle.

"Over there." Lin Ping pointed to the southeast, where the two different cattle were raised separately and the ploughing cattle were to the west. There are also two dogs lying there in the middle to prevent cattle from standing in the wrong line.

Those two dogs were two of the six puppies, Lin Zhu never named them, and after being sent here to be a cattle dog, Lin Yi gave them names, one called Axe and the other called Scythe.

Both the axe and the sickle knew Lin Zhu, and soon ran to her and rubbed her leg with his head, currying favor.

Lin Zhu also squatted down and stroked their heads with his hands. "Are the two of them obedient?"

"Obedient." Lin Yi nodded stiffly.

"Girl, these two dogs have been of great help." Lin Ping secretly abducted Lin Yi and added. "Usually when I take the cattle back, they are there to help drive them, but they are obedient."

Lin Zhu didn't care about Lin Ping's words, let alone Lin Yi's words. As long as two people do their best.

Lin Zhu looked at the cowshed again and found that the two of them had also cleaned it quite cleanly, and the cow dung was thrown into a dug pit and covered with a curtain.

Lin Zhu is very satisfied with their work, but when the two of them graze their cattle, they are on foot, Lin Zhu feels that something is not very good, although the place here is not very big, but if you rely on your legs alone, it is still too time-consuming and laborious.

"Do you know how to ride horses?" Lin Zhu asked.

The two of them didn't know what Lin Zhu meant, and they all shook their heads.

"Uncle Bo, you buy back two horses as soon as possible, and then find someone to teach them how to ride horses." Lin Zhu looked around and said, "Then the cow still has to buy some more." Lin Zhu thought to himself, he wanted to raise beef cattle and sell them for money, and now there are too few cattle. (To be continued......)
