Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Servant Hides the Adultery

At the same time, in Ruyin, it experienced a rare storm.

Ruyin County Ya

Lin Shouchen, who originally planned to handle official affairs conscientiously in the Yamen, felt a little bored after reading the newspaper and letters sent by the capital.

Next year will be the triennial year of Jingcha, and every time this happens, many people in the officialdom will move, or be promoted or demoted.

Jingcha is really loved and feared, but in general, there are a lot of people looking forward to it, after all, these official positions are a radish and a pit, someone has to move, and the people behind are not moving.

So in the letter sent to the faction boss, he asked euphemistically if he could move up next year. He thinks that he has taken good care of Ruyin, a county directly under the central government, although it is not a tax-paying place, even if he is a petty thief, he is not guilty of the worst crimes, and he can also be called a clear and honest rule.

But the reply made him feel cold, and the big guy's attitude towards the questions he asked was vague and ambiguous, and he didn't say anything accurately.

In fact, he also knew in his heart that there was little hope, but he couldn't help but be disappointed when he received such a reply.

Lin Shouchen took the Di Bao again, and the most important thing mentioned in the Di Bao was that the war in the south was about to start, and the war was about to break out.

Lin Shoucheng couldn't help but sigh, there is another war, and next year's Jingcha may be bloody again.

The Great Zhou Chengping for many years, since the founding of the country Gong Xun Jin invented explosives to press the countries around the Great Zhou again, even if he died, the Great Zhou was still stable for more than ten years, and there were some conflicts in the following years, but did not start a large-scale war. But it has not worked in recent years, and the new generation of those neighboring countries has grown up, and their courage seems to have recovered, and they are always constantly provocative and restless.

Fortunately, they still have a few brave and warlike generals of the Pillar State in Da Zhou.

Lou Yueguo in the south took the lead in attacking, Lin Shouchen was not surprised, there was news earlier that when Lou Yueguo repeatedly robbed and killed the people of Da Zhou on the border, this provocation was extremely strong.

I am afraid that the troops in the south have already been increased, and there is a delay in reporting the news, and according to past experience, I am afraid that the soldiers of the two countries have already secretly exchanged hands.

As for why the people did not hear the news of the war at all, it is likely that the higher authorities deliberately concealed it, or there were other arrangements or did not want to cause panic.

But now that even a small county order like him has received a report from the palace, I am afraid that the war will not be hidden.

With the strength of the good wind, it sent me to the blue sky. I don't think he is confused when he is just over the age of age, it is when he is in the prime of life, if he can share his worries for His Majesty at this time, he will definitely be able to hang up in front of him.

It's a pity that the war is fought by soldiers, and the war is fought with grain and grass. But he didn't have either, the wind was there, but he couldn't borrow the strength.

With a sigh of mourning, Lin Shouchen opened the drawer and pressed the written please fold.

is about to fight, His Majesty's mood must be affected by the ups and downs, during this time, he still holds his tail and tries not to be eye-catching in front of the emperor, so as not to be used as cannon fodder to attract the emperor's disgust.

He's not worrying about it, it's a lesson from the past.

After putting away the folds, Lin Shouchen still felt bored, recalled Fang Cai's thought activities, and found that his thoughts were chaotic and divergent, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, he had no intention of working, sat down for a while, and then stood up and walked out.

When Lin Shouchen came out, a look of surprise crossed the eyes of the personal servant Ah Wang, didn't the master say that he was going to work in the yamen today? How

"Master, are you going out?"

"No, go home."

"Did the doctor come to see the old man yesterday?"

"Yes."

"What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said that the old lady's body and spirit are not very good, the muscles under the legs are atrophied, and the spirit is very poor."

Ngawang really wanted to remind his master, why didn't he ask the little doctor who cured Mrs. Wei's illness to show the old lady, maybe he would be cured by accident. How did he know that his master had taken it for granted, and he had invited Chen Xingzhi to come and see it before, but there was no way. Even he, who is a master, is helpless, and an apprentice can be better than a master?

While talking, Lin Shouchen and the others returned to the Lin family's house, entered the gate, and took the lead to go to see his mother.

Just past the Moon Gate, Ah Wang, the personal servant, was very clever, and he was about to run forward to report, but was stopped by Lin Shouchen.

Lin Shouchen was also on a whim, wanting to see if the mother-in-law was dedicated to serving the old lady when she was away.

Ngawang understood with a flicker of his eyes, so they walked all the way, and the maids they met were all signaled to be silent. Along the way, the mother-in-law performed her duties in an orderly manner. Walking to his mother's door, what came into his ears was his mother's personal Mama Meng coaxed her to wipe her face and hands, and she saw Mama Meng busy through the shadows of the screen.

"Mother, my son has come to see you." While speaking, Lin Shouchen had already arrived in the house.

Mother Lin on the bed heard her son's voice and wanted to turn her head to look at him, but it didn't work, and she wanted to turn her eyes to look at it, but it still didn't work. No matter how hard you try, your eyes are crooked.

Xu is mother and son are connected, after Lin Shouchen entered the door, he walked forward quickly, and when he arrived at the bed, he was taken aback! couldn't help but hold accountable Mama Meng, who was waiting on the sidelines, "Mama Meng, why has my mother been so reduced recently?" ”

"Uncle, in a few days it will be the lord's sacrifice day. Xu remembered the old man, the old lady's appetite was not open, and she used less than half a bowl of porridge for each meal, so how could she not reduce it. Mama Meng said with a sigh.

At this time, Mrs. Lin on the bed was very excited when she heard this, and she kept screaming.

Mama Meng wiped the corners of her eyes, lowered her voice and said, "Uncle, look, the old man is a scar in the old lady's heart, and this name can't even be mentioned." ”

Lin Shouchen obviously believed her words, and couldn't help but sit in front of the couch and hold Mrs. Lin's hand, "Mother, the deceased is gone, you still have to relax more." ”

Hearing this, the corners of Mama Meng's mouth hooked up a mocking smile, giving Old Madam Lin a provocative look, which made her even more excited and quickly lowered her eyebrows and stepped aside.

Lin Shouchen hurriedly patted Mrs. Lin on the back, like coaxing a child, and then chatted with Mrs. Lin about a quarter of an hour.

Mama Meng reminded him not to let the old lady bother too much, and Lin Shouchen also felt that it was almost the same, so he said to her, "Mama Meng, you are an old man in the house, and you have served my mother for decades. Before my mother fell ill, she also trusted you very much. Usually when I'm not around, I must forgive my mother a lot. Your son Zhanpeng is working as an errand in the county government, and he is doing a good job, and I expect to promote him to be a bad boy at the end of the year. ”

The emperor is not a hungry soldier, and the credit for her taking care of his mother, Lin Shouchen has been converted to her son, hoping that one of them will work hard and serve his mother with heart.

Seeing this, a touch of despair crossed Old Madam Lin's eyes, and the whole person was no longer excited.

Lin Shouchen turned his head and felt that something was wrong, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

However, Old Madam Lin was not as excited as she had just seen him before, but lay there motionless, surrounded by a dead twilight.

Mama Meng knew what was going on, but she said to Lin Shouchen with a sad face, "The old lady is blaming herself for burdening you, and in the future, if this is the case, the uncle should not say it in front of the old lady." The slave and maid have followed the old lady for decades, and if you don't confess these things, the slave and maid will do their best. ”

"You have been an old man in the house for decades, and I am naturally relieved to entrust you with the responsibility of taking care of my mother."

"By the way, how is the search for the miracle doctor?" Mama Meng pretended to ask casually.

"There has been no progress yet."

"Uncle, you have to hurry up on this matter. The old lady's health is getting worse day by day, and the slave maid heard that the longer the disease drags on, the more difficult it will be to treat. ”
