Chapter 002: Human Life

When I woke up again, it was already evening.

learned from the little maid that Shen Yourong had already gone out, and his business had been very busy recently, and he couldn't come back until late every day, and by that time, Yang Lin might have already slept, whether intentionally or unintentionally, perfectly avoiding the time when the two might meet.

Well, that's fine, if it's really a very troublesome thing to meet often, two people who have no emotional foundation are tied together because of a marriage contract, and it's actually quite embarrassing to get along. Taking a step back, the current mode of getting along is actually very good for everyone, at least on the surface, it is still Qin Se and Ming, of course, no one will be bored enough to pursue deeper things, just like Sanfang said, an outsider is just an outsider, not worth ......

In the blink of an eye, a few days have passed, Yang Lin has become accustomed to this kind of life, and his body has gradually recovered, and he began to exercise in the house, starting with the simplest military body boxing, and then felt that the house was too small, and moved to the yard, anyway, there are only two people in the huge courtyard, he and Xiao Yun, and even the cook is borrowed from the second room.

When Yang Lin practiced boxing, Xiao Yun watched it a few times on the side, and at first she was worried that her uncle was sick again, these years people generally think of themselves as high, and look down on rough people who dance guns and sticks, and her aunt suddenly started boxing in the morning, which did make her nervous for a while, but seeing that his body is getting better and better, and remembering Lang Zhong's instructions, he went with him.

There were also a few times when Yang Lin wanted to cook a few snacks for the little girl in the future, but he was driven out by Xiao Yun with a serious face, saying that the gentleman was far away from cooking, although Yang Lin was a scumbag who had not even taken the tribute exam, which was equivalent to the junior high school exam in later generations, but in the eyes of the little girl, it was also a great cultural person, of course, it was also related to the fact that the Shen family was a merchant family, and there was a natural worship for scholars.

Other miscellaneous things, these days have also encountered a lot, such as some differences in daily life, a person who is accustomed to modern life travels to ancient times, and there will always be some differences in all aspects, such as the almost masochistic toilet chips used when going to the toilet, and then the simple light food with only oil and salt, these all take time to slowly adapt, although papermaking has already been invented, but it is still in the high-end luxury industry, it is a bit unrealistic to use it to make toilet paper, as for improving the food, it must also have the opportunity to cook.

Finally, on the ninth afternoon of the crossing, when Yang Lin was practicing boxing in the courtyard, he happened to meet Shen Yourong who came back from outside, so the two had their first formal meeting.

……

Shen Yourong saw Yang Lin boxing in the courtyard, he was slightly stunned at first, and then took out a handkerchief: "Xiao Yun said that Xianggong was exercising recently, thinking that he was just walking around, he was sweating so much, Xianggong's injury has not healed, so pay attention not to catch a cold." ”

Whether it is the past life or this life, this should be the first time the two have met, the girl's performance at the moment is normal, the seemingly intimate greeting, in fact, still maintains a certain distance, after all, she is a strong woman who has been in the mall for a long time, which even Yang Lin admires.

If it was the nerd before, he might be a little embarrassed now and unconsciously enter her rhythm and control, but as a bystander, Yang Lin can still see a trace of unnaturalness from her expression and movements, these things are extremely unfamiliar to Shen Yourong, but it can be seen that she is trying to try some changes.

Yang Lin took the handkerchief and said, "I'll do it myself." ”

Shen Yourong naturally let go of his hand.

"It's early to come back today."

"Yes, I've been running around for the past few months, and I'm almost done."

Shen Yourong's face was obviously a little tired, and his eyes were also looking at Yang Lin slightly when he spoke, probably because he felt that the man in front of him seemed to be a little different from the man in his impression, and he thought that the other party would be speechless, who knew that he would take the initiative to take over the conversation.

"Haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll ask the cook to prepare some food for you. Yang Lin asked habitually.

"Not yet, but I'm not hungry, I'm just a little tired, and the concubine plans to go back to the room first."

"Well, something called me." Yang Lin said naturally.

This polite remark, which was very common in later generations, made the girl look slightly strange, but she didn't say anything, just nodded, and walked inside.

After a while, Xiao Yun walked in from the side door, carrying a bucket full of washed clothes, and saw Yang Lin just about to say hello, when he suddenly saw the handkerchief in his hand, he was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Uncle, is Miss back?" ”

Yang Lin nodded, and suddenly found that the little maid's face seemed to be a little wrong, and looked at the room on the second floor, wanting to speak and stopping, her expression was full of worry.

"What's wrong?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Yun clenching her little hands, her eyes were red, as if she was about to cry.

Uh, it seems like something serious......

Yang Lin was stunned, and then asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Miss......" The little maid was already panicked at the moment, pulled the corner of Yang Lin's clothes, looked at him and said: "Miss, I haven't closed my eyes for two days, uncle, please persuade her quickly, no matter how important the things in the shop are, they are not as important as the body, it is those people who do not pay attention to the rules and want to force the Shen family to death...... Miss she has tried her best, she has thought of all the ways she can think of in a few months, if the other party is not Cai Xiang's person, maybe she can solve it, but, but...... Woo woo, uncle, you can help Miss. ”

No wonder the atmosphere at home is a little wrong these days, except for idlers like Yang Lin, everyone seems to be very busy, in and out, even Xiao Yun, who has always been lively and lovely, has become silent, of course, in addition to taking the initiative to do more housework, in fact, she can't help too much, involving specific shopping mall disputes, especially when the other party is obviously prepared, many things have exceeded the extent that this small team can cope.

Just like Cai Xiang repeatedly mentioned in the mouth of the little maidservant, it should be Cai Jing, the prime minister of the dynasty, it is impossible to personally attack a merchant family at this level, otherwise it will not leave the Shen family with a few months of struggle and respite, it should just be someone who is attached to him and wants to deal with the Shen family for some purpose.

It should not be possible to make money, otherwise the Shen family would have sent someone to take care of it, and it is not uncommon to break off the tail to survive, the old man of the Shen family can break into such a big family business from scratch, not like a person who does not have this courage. It is even more impossible for the sake of the name.

Although Yang Linlai's history has taken a fork in the road, the Qian Dynasty and the Song Dynasty are actually very similar, although the economy is developed, but the status of the merchants has not been significantly improved, and the Shen family has not even been a serious scholar for several generations, and it is not possible to come up with a traitorous minister, so it is not possible to deal with the Shen family with a good reputation.

So what is it for?

It's a pity that Yang Lin was just a nerd in the past, and he was not qualified to contact these at all, only knowing that when the Shen family Daokou was in Hedong, he was a well-known herb merchant, and after the family moved to Bianjing, he took refuge in the nobles, and the business expanded a lot.

But after all, he is old, and when he reaches the age of retirement, several shops under his command are also divided into several sons to take care of, as the only one in the small generation who has his own shop, Shen Yourong is indeed favored by the old man, and he is ready to be cultivated as an heir, but he didn't expect that when the matter came, there was such a thing.

learned from Xiao Yun's mouth that it turned out that the shop under Shen Yourong had died a few days ago......
