Lin Mo returned to the room to rest for a while, and the door was suddenly opened, startling Lin Mo.

Ma Ruoya walked in with a food box, and saw Lin Mo smile when she saw it: "Come over and eat, this is a dish I asked the chef to stew, eat more, and your body will recover quickly, otherwise Xin'er will worry about it again." Xiao San is estimated to have taken care of the treasure tree again, leaving you here and ignoring it, if I hadn't passed by the kitchen and saw that the food box for you had not been delivered, you would have been hungry. ”

Lin Mo was a little embarrassed and said, "I'll just get this myself, how can I trouble Second Miss You." As he spoke, he took out the food from the food box.

Ma Ruoya sat on the side and looked at Lin Mo, which made Lin Mo a little embarrassed.

Lin Mo had no choice but to bite the bullet and eat, "Lin Mo, what did you tell your father?" ”

Ma Ruoyan asked curiously, Lin Mo smiled and said, "Uncle asked me to guide you well, I can't be too accommodating to you, otherwise when I get married to my mother-in-law's family in the future, I will blame my mother's family for not disciplining you well." ”

Ma Ruoya's face darkened when she heard that Cheng Qin, Lin Mo realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly changed the topic: "This dish is really good, but it is slightly inferior to the food in my hometown, and when I am injured, I will personally cook a few good dishes for you." ”

Ma Ruoya looked at Lin Mo with some suspicion and said, "This dish is made by the chef of the Yunzhou Mansion Restaurant specially invited by my father, can you make it better than him?" ”

"Of course, I'm still very good at cooking."

Lin Moke didn't say much, in his previous life, he was cutting potatoes in the back kitchen of the hotel when he was working and studying, and he learned two hands from the hotel chef, and he originally planned to resign and open a restaurant in the future, but unfortunately he encountered this kind of incident.

Ma Ruoya suddenly thought of something and said to Lin Mo: "Do you want to come to Qian Nan to open a shop?" ”

Lin Mo thought for a while and said, "I don't have that plan for the time being, the rent of the shop here and the wages of Gu Gong are all a lot of expenses." Let's talk about it when we have accumulated a certain amount of money in the future. ”

Ma Ruoya smiled slightly, took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to Lin Mo, Lin Mo asked, "What is this?"

"The title deeds of the shop."

Lin Mo was stunned: "This is too valuable, I can't accept it." Ma Ruoyan smiled and said, "Didn't I say that I would help you later?" That's the fulfillment of my promise. ”

Seeing that Lin Mo was still reluctant to accept it, Ma Ruoyan continued

"This can be regarded as you helping me, you listen to me, this shop is our Ma family's own silk village, more than a month ago the shopkeeper in the shop suddenly died, the government investigated the poisoning and died, and the shop was sealed, and the case was investigated for a month without results. The eldest brother told me that it was the shopkeeper who embezzled part of the profits himself, and he found out, and he took poison himself for fear of being caught. Later, the government also tore off the seal, and my father closed the shop because of bad luck, and the shop has been harassed by the relatives of the deceased because of the homicide. Just when you want to open a shop, I asked my father to ask for this title deed, and I will rent it to you for free, but because of the death, some bad luck, if you can accept this shop, it is equivalent to helping our Ma family solve a trouble, I don't know if you are willing. ”

Lin Mo Lin Mo knew that this opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him, after all, if he wanted to make more money, he had to get out of General Town, and now he could take this opportunity to go one step further and officially enter Chennan.

Although there are some problems with the shop, Ma Ruoya said that this is to dispel her own concerns, and she really doesn't want to accept it, but this kindness is too heavy for Lin Mo, this is not only a shop, but also represents the trust and support of the Ma family to themselves.

Lin Mo thought for a while and said: "I can ask for the shop but I have to pay the rent, but I don't have that much money now, otherwise, I will open it first, and I will pay forty percent of the profit every month, if the forty percent profit is less than eighty taels, I will pay eighty taels, and guarantee at least nine hundred taels of rent per year, so that I will have less pressure, and the rent for you will not be less." ”

Ma Ruoyan nodded when she heard this, Lin Mo said that if he refused again, it would hurt Lin Mo's self-esteem. Lin Mo himself also inquired about the shops in Qiannan, the rent of the smaller ones is about thirty taels a month, and the larger ones are only forty or fifty taels, and five hundred taels a year can rent a pretty good shop.

Lin Mo gives at least nine hundred taels a year, which is already very high, and he guarantees a minimum of nine hundred taels, Lin Mo has the confidence to believe that the profit is more than that, and the extra is regarded as the protection fee for the Ma family.

Ma Ruoya seemed to think of something, and asked Lin Mo: "Are you still used to living here?" Isn't there anything out of the ordinary? Lin Mo thought about it and replied that it was fine, nothing abnormal, and Ma Ruoyan was relieved when she heard it.

The two chatted for a while, and then Ma Ruoya went back, after all, it was an unmarried girl Yunying who stayed in the man's room for a long time and spread it out to affect the festival.

Lin Mo fell asleep, and when Lin Mo opened his eyes, it was already afternoon, Lin Mo shook his head, got out of bed, and went out again while he was going out now, now his injury was actually not serious, the knife was not very deep, but his body itself was weak and had no resistance.

In fact, the most terrible thing about these cold weapons now is not how sharp the sword is, but wound infection, and there is no special medicine such as tetanus in this era, once the wound infection is basically a dead end.

But now it seems that there should be no problem, and the Chinese herbal medicine still has a certain effect.

When Lin Mo was walking around the courtyard, he suddenly saw Xiao San squatting in the corner of the wall fiddling with a strange plant, and Lin Mo walked in and found that it was a fig. Lin Mo patted Xiao San and said, "Xiao San, what are you fiddling with this fig for?"

Xiao San was startled, turned his head to see that it was Lin Mo and said, "Fig? This is a honey fruit, which was brought by the master's friend from the big food, and the result of the original good growth was somehow, it suddenly withered more than a month ago, although the master didn't blame me, but I want to understand why he died suddenly, is it because of the soul of the king steward. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao San immediately covered his mouth, then slapped himself in the mouth a few times, and said: "Steward Wang, I'm sorry, Xiao San didn't mean to slander you, don't worry about the villain." ”

Lin Mo looked at Xiao San in surprise, and then a voice came: "What is Young Master Cousin busy with?" ”

Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, and when he looked back, he saw that it was the person who looked like the housekeeper in the study outside the horseman. Xiao San saw it and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Why did Steward Zhang have time to come here today." ”

"There's nothing else, just go around, you don't care about the honey fruit, maybe it will come back to life on its own, you have time to see the flower garden, if there is any accident, I will ask you."

Steward Zhang patted Xiao San's forehead as he spoke, and Xiao San smiled and answered, then turned around and left.

Lin Mo chatted with Steward Zhang, this Steward Zhang was with Ma Yuanwai when he was a child, he used to be a scholar outside Ma Yuanwai, and later Ma Yuanwai became a steward of Ma Mansion after he became married, since Steward Wang died, Steward Zhang took over Steward Wang's position and became the leader of Ma Fu.

Steward Zhang led Lin Mo around, and when he passed by a small house that was burned, Steward Zhang stopped, introducing that the fire had broken out when Steward Wang's body was parked.

Lin Mo also knew about this, but he didn't say anything, and suddenly Steward Zhang thought of something, and said with some embarrassment

"Young Master Cousin, the room you live in is where Steward Wang lived before his death, Miss brought you back that day, and originally planned to let you live in the guest room, but those rooms have just been painted, which is too pungent, and the conditions for the next person to live are not very good, so I will arrange you in the room where Steward Wang lived, I am really embarrassed."

Lin Mo was a little caught off guard when he heard this, but he quickly recovered and said: "What's this, if it wasn't for the second miss pulling me back, I wouldn't know where to lie down, it's good to have such a good place to live, how can I dislike this and dislike that." After speaking, he also arched his hand to Steward Zhang to show his gratitude.

Steward Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then posted to Lin Mo's side and said: "Steward Wang has worked hard in Mafu for decades, and the old lady also values him very much, and rewards him with many things every year, which is really envious of others, but unfortunately Steward Wang left suddenly, and there is no one at home, his house has never been allowed to outsiders to enter, and we haven't cleaned it much after he left." ”

He gave a "you know" look, then turned around and left.

Lin Mo returned to the house and thought about Steward Zhang's words for a while, what he meant was to let him find the good things that Steward Wang left in the house, and then change the ownership according to the law, of course, you can also use literary and artistic terms to call stealing, and in layman's terms, stealing.

Lin Mo couldn't do such a thing, after all, those things were also the relics of Steward Wang. But anyway, it's still early, and it's idle to be idle, so it's not bad to see what treasures Steward Wang has.

Thinking about it, Lin Mo got up and walked around the house, the layout of the house was very simple but very regular.

The books on the table were placed very neatly, Lin Mo picked them up casually and looked at them, there were a few medical books, written with various prescriptions, Lin Mo read a few pages and couldn't understand them and put them down.

There were a few carvings on the wooden shelf in the corner of the house, Lin Mo casually picked up a porcelain vase and looked at it, it was a relatively ordinary celadon bottle, this bottle was estimated to be sold for a sky-high price in the previous life, but in this life it is a very ordinary porcelain vase.

Lin Mo put the porcelain vase on the shelf and turned around to leave, when suddenly the porcelain vase fell to the ground and shattered. Lin Mo hurriedly stepped forward to check the situation.

Suddenly, Lin Mo found that there was a roll of paper in the broken bottle, Lin Mo picked it up and opened it to see that it was some recipes with the names of various herbs written on them, Lin Mo didn't understand why this recipe was hidden in the bottle.

At this time, Xiao San's voice came: "Young Master Cousin, what's wrong, I heard the sound of things breaking." Then he came in with a food box and pushed the door open.

Lin Mo hurriedly hid the prescription in his sleeve and said, "It's okay, I accidentally touched the porcelain bottle just now, and it fell to the ground and broke, I'll clean it up." ”

Xiao San stepped forward and said, "Young Master Cousin, go and rest, I'll clean up here." Oh, by the way, I also brought the food, young master, you hurry up and eat, eat well and rest. ”

Lin Mo had to thank Xiao San for going to eat first, Xiao San looked at the broken vase and muttered: I don't know which ignorant guy put Steward Wang's baby indiscriminately, now it's all broken, anyway, there are no more people, just break it, just break it, just take it for Steward Wang to take it down for use.

Then, after finishing the fragments, he waited for Lin Mo to finish eating, and by the way, he packed up the dishes and chopsticks, and left with the food box.

Lin Mo opened the prescription and looked at it, and probably knew the words on each prescription, but he didn't know the names of the drugs that were connected, except for sulfur, rhubarb, and dogwood.

It just so happened that there were a few medical books here, Lin Mo picked them up and looked at them for a while, these prescriptions are some common prescriptions for treating scabies and psoriasis, nothing special.

Come to think of it, these are relatively obscure diseases, and they will affect the reputation of Steward Wang, so they are hidden. After figuring it out, Lin Mo put the prescription into the medical book and fell asleep.
