Outside the Lin Mansion, the carriage slowly stopped.

"Miss, are we really going to bring this person back?" Ning Cui asked.

"Of course, his leg still needs to be treated, what's wrong?" Just now, Lin Yunxin had already instructed that the others would be led by Lin Shen'an and Qiu Tong to Zhuangzi and various shops first, and Liu Xiangquan would be brought back to the Lin Mansion by her.

Ning Cui hesitated a little: "The slave is a little worried...... "After all, bring a big man home."

"Worried that they're talking nonsense and ruining my reputation? It's okay, just take Daddy's clear path, what do the others care about them? ”

Not to mention that it is just some rumors, even if it is a bigger risk, it is definitely worth it for Liu Xiangquan.

She had planned to turn the shop on East Avenue into a pharmacy, after all, the chaos had just been settled, and there were many people who had fallen into old diseases in this war, and they did not have to worry about having no customers.

Moreover, in this world, it is not really so stable, in case of a resumption of war, it is easy to be forcibly requisitioned for the business of grain, oil or clothing, and gold ornaments, jade, calligraphy and paintings, etc., are completely useless, only medicinal materials and doctors have an extra layer of protection because of the particularity of their status.

After all, when a person has a headache, brain fever, or a serious illness or injury, no one will be overly harsh on life-saving things.

Originally, Lin Yunxin planned to hire a good doctor in the city, but now with Liu Xiangquan, he naturally did not choose the second choice. It's just that Liu Xiangquan is physically disabled and mentally sluggish, and he still needs to recuperate for a while longer.

On the other hand, Zhang Junhong did not give up looking for someone.

Unlike Lin Yunxin, who didn't know the specific situation, Zhang Junhong had heard of Liu Xiangquan for a long time, and even heard about it.

The Liu family has practiced medicine for generations, although it is located in the southeast, it is not as famous as the imperial capital, but it is quite famous in the local area, and the first-hand medical skills are also superb, the old lady of the Zhang family had a stubborn illness in his early years, and he did not see good medical advice in many ways, but when he was dying, he happened to meet the head of the Liu family, that is, the father of Liu Xiangquan, and picked up a life in the ghost gate.

For this reason, Mrs. Zhang has invited the Liu family to the imperial capital many times, and all the arrangements are prepared by the Zhang family, but unfortunately I don't know whether the Liu family is too peaceful, or disgusted with the fame and fortune of the powerful people in the imperial capital, so they have never responded.

Zhang Junhong also went south with his father when he was young, and saw Liu Xiangquan a few times, at that time Liu Xiangquan was already very prestigious, some people said that he was the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva, and some people said that he was a god and a man descended to earth, just because he not only had excellent medical skills, but also had a cinnabar mole that symbolized merit and compassion in the center of his eyebrows, which made his handsome face more like the immortal in the painting.

It's just that no one expected that when the troubled times began, the Liu family bore the brunt of it, because they refused to give up treating the militia in the city, they offended the soldiers and bandits who came to the city, and a huge family fell apart in an instant, and the people in the clan fled to death.

The Zhang family once completely lost contact with the Liu family, and now the troubled times have just settled, Zhang Junhong has been searching for the traces of the Liu family on the orders of Mrs. Zhang, and finally got the news about Liu Xiangquan, but heard that he broke a pair of legs, sent someone to pick it up, but a series of accidents and mistakes occurred on the road, and now it is even more missed.

In this regard, Zhang Junhong did not give up, he found a court painter in the city, grabbed the teeth of the person who had seen the buyer, and gave him enough silver taels to let him cooperate with the painter to paint, which was worthy of painting the rumored beautiful and shrewd young lady for eight or nine points.

"Yes, yes, that's it, it's almost, it's really like, there is such a way of painting, I can draw it just by saying it." Human teeth feel extremely strange.

got the portrait and looked at the smiling and smart-eyed woman in the painting, but Zhang Junhong was slightly surprised: "It's her?" ”

Three days later.

East Main Street.

Inside a newly opened restaurant.

"Uncle, you are too capable, how can you buy so many properties in such a short time? Let's not talk about the house, even the restaurant has opened for you, and it is too boring to show your mouth today, right? Lin Shen'an shook the folding fan exaggeratedly, and his long eyebrows flew up.

Lin Yunxin also smiled: "When did my uncle arrive in the imperial capital?" Why don't you notify us, so let's help Zhang Luo together. ”

More than half a month ago, when Lin Yunxin wrote to her grandfather, she also wrote to her grandfather in Jiangnan, hoping that they could come to the imperial capital as soon as possible and reopen the market here, and stated in the letter that she hoped to get her grandfather's help.

Unexpectedly, his grandfather did not arrive, his eldest son, that is, Li Hualin, the uncle of Lin Yunxin's sister and brother, came to the imperial capital alone, and quietly bought a large piece of land, houses, shops, and even spent a lot of money on the east and west streets to buy a shop.

Li Hualin smiled heartily: "It's all a little thing, where do you need to trouble you?" ”

"It's too much trouble to say, anyway, my sister is very idle now, and running errands is very easy for her." Lin Shen'an folded a fan to cover his face, smiling and teasing, there was originally a class today, but he temporarily found a reason to run out.

Lin Yunxin smiled: "That's right, I've been learning about running a shop recently, and I'm trying to ask my uncle for more advice." ”

Hearing Lin Yunxin say so seriously, Li Hualin was a little surprised, she thought that she wanted to ask someone from the Li family to help her run the shop, it seems that she wanted to do it herself?

"How could Wan Xin be interested in this?" Li Hualin said.

Lin Yunxin said with a smile: "Shen'an can still take the path of the imperial examination, I have a daughter's family, if I can't go through the official career, then try to take the business path, after all, the official and businessman family, I can't eat at home every day." ”

Li Hualin was really a little surprised at this time, the Dafan girl's family is generally thinking about how to marry a good husband and godson, and it is extremely rare for Lin Yunxin to think about making some practical achievements.

Slightly hesitating, Li Hualin said: "Your marriage ......"

"It's not written yet, and my uncle is keeping an eye on it?" Before Lin Yunxin could answer, Lin Shen'an laughed first.

Li Hualin said with a smile: "Shinong businessman, how can I get it?" What's more, there is Jingzhi, the father and the official, who are paying attention to ......"

Without waiting for Li Hualin to finish speaking, Lin Shenan said: "That's not necessarily, the people my uncle met from south to north don't know how to go, just now my sister said that since ancient times, officials and businessmen are one family, how can there really be no way?" ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows at Lin Yunxin again, and said with a smile: "Right?" ”

Lin Yunxin's eyes moved slightly, knowing that this clever kid had found clues again, yes, since she saw her uncle just now, she found that her uncle's complexion was quite different.

The sky is black, the ground pavilion is green, the mountain roots are low, the face is pale, and the light of the eyes is dim at first, and then the light is clear, which is a kind of ...... Faces that have just been released from prison.

But how could my uncle be imprisoned? If he had, how could he be released at this time, and he bought a large number of mansions and shops in such a short time in the imperial capital?

This is so counterintuitive.

Seeing Lin Yunxin staring at him, his eyes were so transparent that he couldn't help but feel empty in his heart, Li Hualin deliberately made a joke: "Could it be that Wanxin really hates to marry so much?" ”

Lin Yunxin smiled, and did not show half shyness because of this joke, but said very frankly: "Hating to marry is not the point, the point is that I hope that when Wanxin gets married, my grandfather and uncles and aunts can drink a glass of happy wine together." As he spoke, he changed his words, "By the way, uncle, why are you the only one who came to the imperial capital this time?" ”

Hearing this, Li Hualin's eyes darkened slightly, although he knew that Lin Yunxin's sister and brother would definitely have this question, but when his niece smiled like a flower and hoped that his grandfather could come to drink the wedding wine, he was still a little trance, and then said: "Jiangnan is the foundation of our Li family's ancestral house after all, my father is old, and it is not suitable to travel tirelessly, as for your aunt and brother and sister, they will not come over for a while, I will arrange all aspects first, and they will be able to leave." ”

Lin Yunxin nodded, showing a look of yearning: "When will we also go to Jiangnan and meet my grandfather and his old man, Shen'an, are you okay?" ”

"Good! If you can't ask for it, you can't miss it for many years, why don't you arrange your itinerary immediately? Lin Shen'an sat upright with a smile, looking very interested.

Li Hualin was slightly anxious in his heart, and his brows couldn't help moving: "Why are you so anxious? When my house is settled, when the time comes, I will invite his old man to come over when I see the water transportation, I think it is not as bumpy as the land transportation, and the time is shorter, and the old man will not be too difficult. ”

Lin Yunxin said: "By the way, uncle, what does my grandfather usually do?" ”

Lin Shen'an followed closely and said, "What kind of things does his old man like now?" My sister and I also had to collect some of it and send it to him. ”

Lin Yunxin said: "Are you continuing to be busy with Zhang Luo's business, or are you already at home and teasing your grandson?" I remember that he was so busy that he couldn't spare a moment, and when he was a child, he always liked to give us my siblings all kinds of fresh things. ”

Lin Shen'an: "Should you marry a few more concubines and live a happy and chic life?" ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Lin Yunxin glanced at him, but even Li Hualin couldn't cry or laugh: "You, you, be careful that your grandfather will beat you when he hears this, but I'm afraid he will also ...... I can't bear to beat you ......"

Li Hualin's mood was slightly depressed for a moment, and then he smiled again: "Don't talk about this, you two can rest assured, your grandfather lacks nothing, and his health is very good, but you, it won't take long to return to the imperial capital, right?" Are you adjusting to life here? I heard that Shen An went to study in Taixue? Very good, very good......"

Li Hualin quickly changed the topic and chatted with Lin Yunxin's sister and brother, he had seen a lot of knowledge from south to north, and he was literate and witty, which quickly made the sister and brother laugh.

However, out of the restaurant.

As soon as Lin Yunxin and Lin Shen'an got into the carriage, Lin Shen'an smiled and said, "Uncle has a problem." ”

Lin Yunxin nodded: "Yes, and I'm afraid it's not a small problem." ”

"What do you see?"

"I doubt it...... My grandfather's family is probably imprisoned long ago. ”

"Captivity?!" Lin Shen'an raised his voice suddenly, but Lin Yunxin covered his mouth.

"You be quiet, why are you so excited?"

"No, how could it be? If he is imprisoned, how will the uncle ......? Unless......" Lin Shen'an's expression sank suddenly.

Lin Yunxin couldn't help frowning: "If this is the case, then it will be the worst situation." ”

"It's not good to ...... like this," Lin Shen'an stretched out his hand and gestured around his neck, making a head-killing gesture.

Lin Yunxin nodded, with a solemn expression: "This shows ...... Gangnam is far from what we think. "The world is not yet truly unified.

"How ...... then?" Before Lin Shen'an finished speaking, the carriage suddenly stopped, and he shut up extremely keenly, "What's wrong?" He asked, lifting the curtain, and when he saw the people outside the window, he was slightly startled.

"Is that you?"

The one who stopped the carriage was the grandson of the Taifu who traveled with the little maid, Zhang Junhong.
