Daiyu is just weak, but her mind is not weak, and now the situation at home, although she does not need to take on the responsibility of the eldest sister as a mother, it is undeniable that because of her and Yang Wan's identity, she cannot hide behind, and she must come forward to meet some wind and rain. At that time, what should have been known, she will still know.

Therefore, Lin Jin felt that it would be a good thing to tell her earlier, so that she could be prepared in her heart and have a little more time to calm down. But seeing that Daiyu was depressed for several days because of the big blow, she felt distressed again, because she wanted to make the relationship between Daiyu and Yang Wan better, so she secretly asked Yang Wan to take Daiyu out for a break in the name of burning incense.

Sent away my grandmother. Mother and Daiyu and their party, Lin Jin took Lin Ge'er's hand and went back to the inner hall. Just when she was teaching Brother Lin to write, Xiao Yanmo came in with a post and replied, "Uncle, the people of the Yang clan are here." ”

It's finally here. Since Lin Ruhai passed away, Lin Jin has been waiting for the people from the Yang clan to come to the door, but they came later than she estimated. Although she was prepared in her heart, Lin Jin didn't show half a point on her face, ignored Yan Mo's words, and continued to hold Brother Lin's hand to teach him to draw red, until she finished writing a word, and asked Brother Lin's grandmother Qian Mama to take Brother Lin down to play, and then got up and walked out.

Yuzhu saw that Lin Jin was going to see the people of the Yang clan like this, and hurriedly stopped: "Uncle, uncle, you haven't changed your clothes yet." Even if you don't change the clothes of the guest, but when you taught the second master to write just now, it was stained with ink, so it is really inappropriate to go out to meet the guest like this. ”

Lin Jin glanced at the homely clothes she was wearing, the placket and the ink stained on the cuffs, because she was filial piety, she was dressed very plainly, so on the clothes, especially on the placket, the ink spots that Lin Geer threw up with a pen were very clear, and they were dark and black, which was very eye-catching.

Pushing away the clothes of the visitor that Yuzhu was holding in her hand, she smiled disapprovingly: "I don't think there's anything wrong, but I think it's good." Also, I saw not a guest, but a thief. "So, it's not worth it for me to change their clothes.

Walking into the flower hall where the guests were entertained, Lin Jin saluted the people of the Yang clan who were a little upset because of the long wait, and then sat down on the main seat, and said very bluntly: "The elders are late, most of my Lin family's property has been divided, and the rest of this point is to provide food and clothing for our family, so unless our family wants to starve to death, otherwise, no matter what, we will not make a move." ”

Because Lin Jin went straight to the point, and although the people of the Yang clan came a step late this time and did not catch up with the "sharing" feast of the Lin family's industry, they understood the current situation of the Lin family very clearly, and knew that the Lin family was now a family with six relatives who did not rely on, although there was a clan, but it could not be relied on, and only Lin Jin was a family with a half-grown child to support the door.

If it weren't for Lin Jin's fame as a showman, he would be young and promising, and his future would be uncertain; And although Lin Ruhai passed away, it was not long after he passed away, no matter how many people go to tea and cool, it is estimated that if their family of orphans and widows is forced too much, there are still so many Lin Ruhai's friends who are willing to stand up for him. Therefore, the Lin family was able to retain a small part of the industry when surrounded by wolves.

The Yang patriarch who took the lead did not hide it, and said very simply: "Nephew, your Lin family's property is not in your hands, I don't care at all, I came this time to return our Yang family's property that was robbed by your father."

Whether it is from her grandmother, or her mother, or Lin Ge'er, the relationship between Lin Jin and the Yang clan is not too far, so it stands to reason that Patriarch Yang should not call her with the polite title of "nephew". But the patriarch of the Yang clan did this, in addition to showing that he was estranged from her and drawing a clear line, but also showed that what he was going to do next was obviously not suitable for intercession with Lin Jin.

She had already guessed the intention of the Yang clan to come to the door, and the name of the Yang patriarch to her made her confirm this. Lin Jin sneered and said, "Your Yang family's industry? Does it mean my grandmother's property? Yes, that's your Yang family's property. But Lin Ge'er inherited to my uncle's name, as my uncle's heir, those properties should belong to Lin Ge'er, if Patriarch Yang doesn't remember, then the inheritance certificate and property record certificate filed by the yamen, I think it should be able to remind you.

Brother Lin is still young, so it is normal that his share of the property is kept by my mother and grandmother, his closest relatives. Moreover, when the succession was passed, the patriarch and several clan elders requested that this property be recorded in detail, and there were also documents in the yamen. In addition to the Yang family's property under Lin Ge'er's name, our family no longer has a trace of your Yang family, so I want to ask, Patriarch Yang, what are the properties that your father forcibly robbed? ”

Lin Jin raised his eyebrows at the Yang clan, and said angrily: "If Patriarch Yang doesn't make it clear today, then don't blame the kid for being rude." The name of my father's life is absolutely not allowed to be slandered by others so casually. At that time, we have to go to the public court, and ask the county lord to distinguish it for us, if the county lord can't say clearly, then we will go to the government office, go to the governor's yamen,...... If it doesn't work, I'll go to the capital and beat the drum. ”

Just kidding, after Lin Ruhai passed away, Lin Jin held back her temperament, did not tear up with the Jia family and the clan, and let the people who coveted the Lin family's property devour the Lin family, that is because she wants to take care of Daiyu and want the Jia family to help share the pressure; and the people of this era, their perception of the clan, after all, the Lin family is not divided into clans, but they are still a member of the clan; And because Lin Ruhai used the matter of salt politics to break the sky, at this time, the Lin family needs to show weakness, and cannot let the emperor's protection of his own family that Lin Ruhai exchanged for the Lin family with his life be destroyed because of her strength, so she must be a weak person and strive for the mercy of the world for the "weak".

But this does not mean that the Lin family is really weak enough that anyone can step on it. It just so happened that the Yang clan, which was already down-and-out and not far from the Lin family, but was not close for some reason, took the initiative to send it to the door, and she could be the "chicken" that she killed and set an example for.

At the beginning, when Lin Ruhai passed Lin Ge'er to Yang Wan's brother, the Yang patriarch was worried that the Lin family would encroach on the Yang family's property under Lin Ge'er's name, so he insisted on recording all the properties one by one on the inheritance documents. It was originally a means to guard against the Lin family, but who would have thought that it would become a rope around the Yang family's own neck today.

Just as Patriarch Yang blushed and thought about how to break this situation, an old clan elder on the side threatened: "Aren't you afraid that the clan will expel the names of your grandmother, your mother, and Lin Ge'er from the Yang clan genealogy?" ”

Lin Jin picked up the teacup in his hand, took a sip lightly, and said with a faint expression: "If I say I don't care, you will definitely not believe it; But to say that I care, I am lying to you, because I don't really care about it. The corners of his mouth flashed with a sneer, "What's more, you have come all the way to ask for money, if you take my grandmother." Mother and Ringer's names were removed from the family tree, and you just breathed a sigh of relief, but the ultimate goal was not achieved.

Although our Lin family is now down, but to say Uncle Yang Shi, what you don't like to hear, whether it is private or official, my family is not afraid of your Yang family. Besides, it's not good, although our family has an average relationship with the clan, but it has not torn its face, if our family is so bullied by your Yang clan, it is impossible for the clan to sit idly by, because this involves the face of the clan. In this case, do you Yang clan really want to be enemies of our clan? ”

Lin Jin is not worried that the Lin clan will stand by and watch, even if the clan really doesn't want to care because of the disagreement with her family, she used to secretly use the name of the chamber of commerce to do business with the clan and help the clan, this time, although she was dissatisfied with the clan's actions, but she did not order the chamber of commerce to cut off the business with the clan. And because she wanted to repair the relationship with the clan before, when she did business with the clan, she made a lot of profits, so don't look at the time of doing business for a long time, but the clan made a lot of money.

Putting down the teacup in her hand, Lin Jin looked at the Yang clansmen who choked because of her words, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not that I can't meet your requirements, but I have one condition, that is, the money I give to the Yang clan every year will be given according to the number and length of time that the Yang clan people go to Yixue to teach the schoolchildren there to read and write for free, what do you think?" ”

From a very early age, Lin Jin has been opening compulsory education in Daqin, teaching not the content of the Four Books and Five Classics, but after mastering the regular reading and writing, he learned more practical mathematics. But even the simplest teaching task before the third grade in later generations can't be completed in this era, because before she just started to run a free school, she still wanted to take the route of the countryside surrounding the city and the sparks of the prairie fire, but the reality told her how full her ideas were, how skinny the reality was.

There has been a shortage of teachers, so the laying of Yixue is not very smooth, she has been worried about the source of the teacher for a long time, and now the Yang family has sent it, she knows that there are many literate people in this clan, and they can just be teachers, so how can they let it go? She was not worried at all that the Yang clan would not agree, in the past few years, because of the relationship between Aunt Lin and Yang Wan, she still knew a thing or two about the situation of the Yang clan.

Since losing their official position, the Yang patriarch has not given up seeking revenge, so the silver has flowed out like water, but so far, the recovery has not been successful, and the family has become more and more impoverished, and now many families in the clan will not be able to open the pot. In this world, there are still a few people who don't bend their waists for five buckets of rice. Therefore, the Yang clan, for the sake of money, is willing to be driven by her.
