Chapter 51: Reward
The expressions of the people present suddenly changed.
The big room couple had a calm face, but the second room couple brought some schadenfreude, and the third room had some surprises and worries.
Lin Jingzhi's expression froze, but he didn't say anything, just as he was about to kneel, "Slow!" Lin Yunxin and Lin Shenan spoke at the same time.
"Dad has an injury, I will kneel for him." Lin Yunxin.
"Dad is injured, grandfather, can't you see it?" Lin Shenan said angrily.
Old Man Lin's face turned cold, but before he could speak, Lin Jingzhi shouted: "Stop! Shen An, who allowed you to talk to your grandfather like that? On your knees! β
"I'm not wrong, why kneel?" Lin Shenan retorted.
"You?!" Lin Jingzhi was so angry that he was stunned, but he was weak now, even if he wanted to whip Lin Shen'an with a stick like usual, he couldn't do it.
"Stand down." Lin Yunxin spoke, looking directly at Lin Shen'an.
Lin Shen'an looked at his sister with a haggard face but clear eyes, her lips moved, but she didn't say anything more.
Old Man Lin also saw it at this time, his concubine's house said on the surface that he was the concubine in charge, but in fact, his smart granddaughter was at the helm of their small family. No, at present, his granddaughter is holding his son tightly with one hand, making people unable to kneel.
Seeing that his granddaughter seemed to have grown up a lot in less than two months, Old Man Lin sighed in his heart, eased his expression and asked, "Wan Xin thinks that your father is not wrong, and your grandfather shouldn't punish your father?" β
Lin Yunxin looked at her grandfather and replied, "In the general sense, my father is not wrong. But for the Lin family, he was at fault. Therefore, the emperor Shengming acquitted his father, but when his father returned home, he had to face the punishment of his grandfather. β
"However," Lin Yunxin changed her words, "now that my father has been injured in prison, what I need most now is to recuperate, although my father has been worried about my grandfather for days, but my grandfather is merciful and can postpone the punishment, and it is not too late to punish him when his injury improves." Otherwise, once my father's injury worsens, it will be in danger, and my grandfather's reputation will also be damaged. β
Lin Yunxin laughed angrily at Old Man Lin with one sentence: "You, you, stinky girl, you really do everything to protect your father." "How dare you allude to him being unkind to his father?
"I am glad to know my mistake, please ask my grandfather to punish him." Lin Yunxin admits mistakes and has a good attitude.
Old Man Lin shook his head secretly, he actually felt that his granddaughter had a bit of hob meat?
He didn't insist on ordering Lin Jingzhi to kneel, but said in a deep voice: "Jingzhi, see? This is the result of your reckless trouble, and in the end, not to mention the family, but also to have young children run around for you. If it weren't for their luck this time, do you think you would be able to see these lovely sons and daughters again, even if you can come back from prison? You are not young now, even if you don't think about your parents and don't fight for the Lin family, you should consider that you still have children! Don't be so reckless from now on! β
"Yes, father......" Lin Jingzhi's eyes instantly turned red, and the old man's words were sincere.
Seeing that Old Man Lin really had the intention of letting go gently, the old lady beside him suddenly felt dissatisfied, but said: "Jingzhi won't talk about it, after all, there are injuries in the body, but Wan Xin ...... Dare to run around with a few maids so recklessly, so unruly, even if he comes back now, no one can tell what happened outside......"
The old lady's words made everyone present immediately change color. "Ahem!" Old Man Lin coughed lightly, but the old lady didn't pay attention to it at all, and continued, "A girl's family is so ignorant of self-love, and even cares about the reputation of the family, and even affects the in-laws of the sisters in the clan, it is simply in the same vein as her father, reckless and ignorant, and not punishing is not enough to calm the anger of the public!" β
Lin Jingzhi's face changed, and he raised his head suddenly: "Mother!" ...... "Although I knew that my mother had never been kind to him, I didn't expect to be so ruthless.
Lin Shen'an's expression sank, and his face was suddenly clouded, his grandmother's words were not only ruthless, they were simply vicious! What did this group of people do while they were running around for their loved ones? Now you still have the face to say cool things?
But as soon as he raised his eyes, he happened to meet Lin Yunxin's calm gaze, and shook his head at him slightly.
Jiang's heart was happy, let her Lin Yunxin toss the sky before, grabbed the dowry and wanted to establish power, but she didn't know that in the Lin family's back house, it was the old lady who really made the decision.
Instead, Lin saluted and said, "Mother, I think it's ......."
"Saluteβ" The old lady prolonged, her face calm and non-negotiable.
Lin Jingli stretched out his finger and scratched his cheeks, obviously he didn't expect to be so disadvantageous this time, and cast a helpless look at Lin Yunxin.
Lin Yunxin said: "Grandmother's words are wrong, Yunxin is not nonsense, but to save people......"
"Saving people?" The old lady sneered, "Do you really think you are a character?" Do you still want to say that you can't do it without the dynasty? This plague was quelled and the family was preserved, all because of you? β
Without waiting for Lin Yunxin to answer, the old lady said angrily: "Don't try to reverse black and white, right and wrong are not distinguished, mistakes are mistakes, if you can admit your mistakes, and promise that from now on until you get married, you will no longer go out indiscriminately to ruin the family style, you will still be considered a child of the Lin family, otherwise you will ......"
Hearing this, Old Man Lin raised his eyebrows.
"Mother! ......" Lin Jingzhi became more and more anxious, if Lin Yunxin hadn't been holding him up, he would have knelt down on the spot. Any girl is inseparable from the protection of the clan, and the old lady's words are no less than if Lin Yunxin has any resistance, she will be expelled from the clan.
You can't! His daughter is not at fault at all, all the faults are on him, and he should bear the responsibility for it...... "Wan Xin," Lin Jingzhi wanted to break free of Lin Wan Xin's hand.
Lin Yunxin's eyes moved slightly, but her father's hand was tighter, and she looked at the old lady and suddenly smiled faintly: "According to my grandmother's intentions, she wants to put me under house arrest?" β
Jiang Shi looked at her incredulously, this girl shouldn't be crazy, right? Still laughing? How dare you contradict the old lady like this?!
Sure enough, seeing her smile, the old lady's eyes were even more angry, and she became sharper and sharper, and said angrily: "House arrest? You girl really doesn't do what you say! If you don't stop it, it will definitely harm the family in the future, come here, take her down to me, put her in the Buddha hall and kneel......"
However, before the old lady could finish speaking, a loud shout came from outside the main hall, "The holy decree has arrivedββ! β
Everyone in the hall was shocked, the holy decree? What holy decree?
Although he didn't know the situation, after all, the old man Lin was the second rank of the previous dynasty, and immediately strode out, and the old lady was also supported by the servants and followed with several sons and daughters-in-law.
In the courtyard, a palace eunuch held a bright yellow holy decree.
"Master Su, it's really strange today, what kind of wind is blowing you?" As soon as Old Man Lin saw him, he immediately greeted him politely, knowing that he was the eunuch in charge of the emperor today.
Eunuch Su looked like he was in his thirties and forties, dressed in a gorgeous robe, with a calm bearing and a long figure, he looked around, his eyes fell on Lin Yunxin, and he smiled slightly: "Miss Lin Si and the Lin family, take the order." β
Everyone present immediately froze.
Is the holy decree for Lin Wanxin? What's the situation?
What trouble did this girl cause again? This was the old lady's first thought.
Old Man Lin's eyes flashed slightly, and he glanced at Lin Yunxin thoughtfully, it seems that his granddaughter may have done something practical when she went out this time.
After all, it was the first holy decree received by the Lin family after returning to the imperial capital since the beginning of the new dynasty, and everyone was very cautious and knelt on the ground to receive the decree.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said that the Lin family has a daughter, gentle and virtuous, and excellent medical skills...... In distress, he went to Anxian County to rescue...... To find a cure to save the people from fire and water...... I am grateful for his sincerity, and now I am the county lord of Qiandan County, and I enjoy a county of food...... Chin this. β
Lin Yunxin?
County Lord??
Still enjoy food?! How can it be?!
What the decree says...... Did Lin Yunxin develop the medicine?
Hearing this reward, everyone in the Lin family suddenly fell into a dead silence.
Especially the old lady had just ridiculed Lin Yunxin in public, and now she immediately confirmed that she really stopped the plague and saved the people, this slap in the face came too quickly, Rao is old lady boasted that she had experienced storms all her life, and at this moment she couldn't help but feel blue and white on her face.
Everyone in the Lin family didn't dare to be too happy, not to mention, more than surprise, for them, it was more fright. When did Lin Yunxin learn medical skills, and still have such attainments? Isn't it someone wrong? But no one dared to question that the emperor had made the wrong person.
Seeing that everyone in the Lin family was silent, Eunuch Su said, "Miss Linsi? β
Lin Yunxin: "The courtiers receive the decree and thank the emperor." β
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live." Old Man Lin and everyone in the Lin family also thanked him.
Everyone in the Lin family was still digesting, but Old Man Lin had already found a bag and stuffed it to Eunuch Su, and said with a smile: "It's still early, why don't you take a sip of tea first?" β
"No, our family has a lot of miscellaneous affairs, and it is not as good as Lord Lin to be leisurely and blessed, and there are such filial sons and grandsons." Eunuch Su said with a smile.
"Where, where." Old Man Lin politely sent people out of the mansion.
When he came back, looking at the atmosphere in the courtyard that was obviously much more active, and the old wife was gone, Old Man Lin smiled slightly, it seems that he still looked down on his granddaughter before, and the fourth child was able to return safely this time, most likely because his granddaughter went to ask the emperor for grace.
County Lord...... Qiandan County, where is this place?
It's not a title in vain, but a reward for food, which is not a small reward. They are the emperor...... Is it such a generous temperament?
Old Man Lin always felt a little strange.
"Qiandan County ......" Not only was Old Man Lin pondering, but Lin Yunxin was also thinking while dealing with the inquiries of her father and third uncle, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind.
"Isn't that ......?" Lin Yunxin and Old Man Lin glanced at each other, and their eyes showed doubts and worries.
"A mountainous county on the edge of Huaizhou, the richest in the south of the Yangtze River?"
Since it is located in the south of the Yangtze River, it is a place that has not yet been recovered.
How could the emperor give her such a reward? And how did she enjoy the food there?
Or is it that although the emperor is rewarding and punishing, he deliberately only gives her a name?
But where is the name bad, but it is necessary to give an important pass on the edge of Huaizhou? It is not only an important county for gold mining, but also a place where soldiers have always competed.
What exactly did the emperor have in mind?
Lin Yunxin deeply felt that she seemed to have accidentally fallen into a pit.
