Chapter 151: Succession
The clouds and mist in the mountains do not dissipate easily, and the warm sun is like illumination, and it is difficult to survive in the fog. At the foot of the tea mountain, in the Pure Land Village, there is a family that has lit an oil lamp in this free time, and it is all heard that the sound of the rope is one.
After a while, a man under thirty went out, followed by a little woman, undressed, leaning against the door, and said, "Are you coming again tonight?" ”
The man beckoned to the back, and said without looking back, "Whether you come or not, it's not for me to decide, when I'm done over there, I'll come over, you don't have to leave the light for me." ”
The man went out of the village, all the way to the courtyard of the Ma family, when he entered the door, he met an old man with a white beard, after seeing the man clearly, his face was white and black, and he said angrily, "You went again?" ”
"That can't be helped, my dad won't leave me the door anymore, I have to have a place to live, uncle." Lin Liang was still the same hippie smile, as if he really had nowhere to go, so he had to go to someone else to borrow it.
"I'm not going to talk to you, one day someone will come and take you bastard, see if you can still be so messy then." Steward Lin frowned, not wanting to have anything to do with this nephew, so he walked around the people and walked towards the workshop.
"If that's the case, then it will be fine." Lin Liang muttered in the back, as if he was talking to himself. Then he entered the door, walked to the kitchen with a familiar car, came out with porridge, squatted under the eaves, and sucked up.
After a while, another guy came over and said in Lin Liang's ear, "Brother Liang, the new young master went to his family's old mansion again, and it didn't take long for another brother to catch a glimpse of another person also entering." ”
Hiss, so sour! Lin Liang gritted his back molars and scolded, "Which jar of sauerkraut, so sour!" After a pause, he said to the guy, "How is the young master, do you have any arrangements for today?" ”
Hearing Lin Liang ask, the young man was very proud, the corners of his mouth grinned, and said, "I'm at home in the morning, and I'm going to Huan Garden in the afternoon." ”
"Oh." Lin Liang was a little disappointed, buried his head and pulled the porridge in the bowl clean, got up and went to the kitchen to put the bowl, and said to the young man, "Prepare the horse, I want to see what this person has become." ”
In the Ma family's house in the north of the city, today can be described as very lively, in addition to their own guys waiting outside the hall, there are also a few guys from the Long family who are also standing on the side, Ma Bin, who is sitting in the host's seat, is also full of smiles, talking with Siming who is sitting in the guest seat on the side.
The conversation between the two was nothing more than some scenes, saying that they were very fortunate to go to Tong'an this time, and that they hoped that the father and daughter would be well. Siming hammered the abacus in his heart, forced the past displeasure in his heart, and piled up a smiling face, wrestling with this former master.
After a while, another pin came over, followed by a guy with a raw eye, not the usual Xiao Qiang. Siming remembered what Ming Xin meant when he said that Xiao Qiang took the matter over.
"Third brother, you are back. Is it safe on the road? Before Pinyuan entered the door, the greeting had already arrived, and he came over with concern to see if there were any traces of injury on Siming's body.
The corners of Siming's mouth tugged upward, and said with a smile, "Nothing happened, and everything went well in the past." ”
The two have never gotten along with each other in such an capacity, and because of many outsiders on the side, they are even more blunt, and they didn't say a word, and then the scene was cold.
It's just a matter of time, when Siming made up his mind to turn against Ma Bin, he naturally couldn't continue to be brothers with Pinyuan, and now he can still care about one or two, and when he knows the truth in the future, he doesn't know what it will look like.
The three people in the room, each with different ideas, have no contact with each other to tell the past kindness, as if they have really returned to the past, but everyone knows that the past that barely maintains harmony is no different from the current hypocritical scene.
Siming's heart is even more irritable, how to check the truth ten years ago, if he was able to control his emotions well and maintain the way he was before when he first returned to White City, there would always be more places to check now.
But it's useless to regret it, because fate will get the help of the Long family, Siming can only consider investigating this matter in other ways, and the last time he returned to Baidi City, what Ma Bin did was really chilling, if he was really the culprit who caused the destruction of his family, it would not be strange.
Just as he was thinking about it, a person came in from outside with his back on his back, walked all the way to Ma Bin's side and stopped, looking at Siming, it was none other than Lin Liang.
Lin Liang whispered a few words beside Ma Bin, and then retreated with his back slumped. It didn't take long for Ma Bin to let Siming get along with himself and follow Lin Liang out.
Pinyuan, who was sitting opposite Siming, finally became comfortable, came over and sat next to Siming, and asked, "Third brother, have you received the post I handed over yesterday morning?" ”
"Hmm. See, there are some things over there in Bihua Pavilion that I have to deal with in the afternoon, so it is inconvenient to go with you anymore. Siming said.
"It's okay, you are busy with yours first, and we will meet again when we are busy." Pin Yuan was calm, thinking that the relationship between the two was the same.
Siming was about to drink tea, ordered it, then stopped, glanced at the guys outside, and suddenly said to Pinyuan, "As soon as this year passes, I will leave for Tong'an, and in the days to come, I can't get together with you more, and I will call Mingxin to come to my house to eat and drink another day." ”
Pin Yuanben leaned on Siming's side, and when he heard this, he also retracted his head, looked at his toes, and after a long time, he said, "When Mingxin comes back in the evening, I will talk to him." ”
There is no banquet in the world, Pinyuan was silent for a while, got up from the chair, patted the folds on his clothes, and asked relaxedly, "Third brother, when are you leaving, you have to spend the Lantern Festival here, this year's lanterns should also be very lively." ”
"I think after that, there's always something to deal with here."
After lunch, the third brother still left, changed into his daily clothes, and went to the study. Most of the things in the study were no different from usual, except that Siming's position became Lin Liang, and he stood there with a smile.
It's not annoying, since Lin Liang was taken back to the Ma family by his father and did things for his family, there are indeed a lot fewer troubles in this tea mountain. It's just that Pinyuan still can't get used to this person's behavior, because he always stays at the Tong family, and gives the Tong family a lot of benefits, but he is ruthless to other people, blindly forming gangs in this house, and ruining the atmosphere of this house.
Xiao Qiang, who has always followed him, didn't know where to let him go to the envoy, but his father acquiesced, and didn't let himself mention this matter at all, and when he went to his house to find him, he was often fooled back by Xiao Jian.
It's a matter of dividing the money again! Lin Liang always persuaded his father, the fourth uncle and Yi's cousin's family's silver, to make up less this year, to fill in the hole in the workshop.
These things, Pin Yuan couldn't speak for a long time, so he could only stare at Lin Liang dryly to see what tricks he said. But this Lin Liang was very restrained in front of Pinyuan, and he only spoke half of what he said, and the rest was that Ma Bin could understand, but Pinyuan didn't know.
"Fourth master, I have already sent someone to probe the situation, and the matter of dividing the silver can be discussed, but I just muttered to the merchants who will come to sell tea next year." Lin Liang was next to Ma Bin, said quite respectfully, and glanced at the sky a few times, and couldn't see what he was worried about.
Tea merchants next year, that's a thing.
Since the bodies of the three guys appeared in the official mansion inexplicably, in addition to Siming's suspicion, there were also rumors that these three people died at the hands of Li Ming, a tea merchant, in case they revealed some news. After the Long family helped Siming clear his suspicions, the government put out the fire for some reason, and did not come to Ma's house for questioning, but only asked the family to take the cremated body and put it into the ground for peace.
On the Ma family's side, because Lin Liang secretly used some means to win over some people, the tea farmers made trouble for a while, and they didn't make any more trouble, took some silver, and that's it.
It's just that next year's tea merchant is still up in the air. Although Pin Yuan didn't get any affirmative answers from his father, he also noticed that his father was looking for a new tea merchant to come over, and even had the idea of reconciling with the Xia family, after all, it was always much easier to eat the old book.
Although Pinyuan is not directly involved in these things, and sometimes is deliberately concealed, he has also discovered the so-called truth in some clues, but he must also pretend not to know, let them take it lightly, and let the leaky mouth continue to leak.
"Where's Lao Qi?" Ma Bin asked.
"On the Seventh Master's side, it's easy to say it's easy to do, but it's a little difficult to say it's difficult. A few days ago, there happened to be someone... Speaking of this, Lin Liang suddenly paused, glanced at Pinyuan, lowered his head and said, "I saw that the Seventh Master went to the countryside to buy a little guy to go home again, and put it by his side like a baby." If the master agrees, the seventh master will not have an opinion on this silver matter. ”
Ma Bin took a sip with some disgust, as if he was shaking off something dirty, and said, "Seal his mouth tightly, I don't want to see him shouting at this year's annual meeting." ”
Lin Liang responded, and didn't wait for Ma Bin to ask again, and continued, "The sixth girl's side has been short of money recently, and the young master has come back to live here, and has pulled some foreign debts, so it is estimated that there is no room for negotiation." ”
"How much do you owe?"
Xu was a little ashamed, Lin Liang sneered, and replied, "Two hundred taels of silver, all of which are the silver owed by Lazar to eat and drink." After a while, he added, "The new young master should also know about this, and the silver he went to send at that time, the sixth girl should not hide it from him." ”
Anyone can hear the smell of sowing discord here, and Pinyuan was a little unhappy, and said loudly, "I also know this, I didn't let him say it." ”
"Young Master..." Lin Liang wanted to say something, but swallowed the words back, looked at Ma Bin again, and stopped talking.
