Chapter 33: Asking for Help

When she got home, Yi Jiaren freshened up and went to the Lin Mansion again. The housekeeper blocked her back, and it was still the same sentence, and there was a letter to tell you. But Zhong Xiufang waited anxiously for a day, and no one came to send a letter.

In the evening, he went to Lin's house again, but he still only saw the housekeeper, but he finally learned some news, saying that Yi Linfeng was locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department.

When I asked anything more, the housekeeper said he didn't know.

Lao Han was on an errand in the Lin family, and he knew some things, so he called Yi Jiaren aside, "Miss Cousin, I heard that someone went to the Wu family to intercede, and the Wu family went to the emperor to ask for a decree to sentence the young master to ransom, and the Lin family just didn't want to pay the ransom." ”

Hearing that her brother's affairs had settled, Yi Jiaren breathed a sigh of relief: "How much is the ransom?" ”

"Ugh." Old Han sighed: "One thousand taels." ”

"Ahh Yi Jiaren was shocked when she heard it.

I'm afraid that I don't have so much money to open the Yi family's bottom upside down.

Farewell to Lao Han, Yi Jiaren went to the prison of the Criminal Department. He gave the cell head two taels of silver, and the cell boss sent a jailer to take her in.

When he arrived at the door of a cell, the jailer pointed to a person lying on the ground inside: "That's it, hurry up." ”

"Eh, thank you, sir."

Hearing Yi Jiaren's voice, the people inside struggled to sit up.

took a closer look, and Yi Jia's tears came out of her heart.

I haven't seen him for two days, Yushu Linfeng's brother seems to be seriously ill, his face is sallow, his lips are chapped, his hair is unkempt, and his hands are red and swollen with chilblains.

"Brother, why did you become like this?" Yi Jiaren grabbed his cold hand and cried.

Yi Linfeng sat against the wall and smiled weakly: "I'm fine, I'm worried about you, cough cough... It's all because I was so angry that I didn't do my best to capture the cheetah, I really deserved it. ”

"Brother, don't say that, you are doing harm for the people. You're thirsty, I'll get you some water to drink. Yi Jiaren got up and gave the jailer two taels of silver, and asked for some water and a broken quilt.

After drinking the water, Yi Linfeng's spirit seemed to be better, and he lowered his voice and said, "Don't tell me about the encounter with the eagle-faced man, they were forced to shoot the cheetah to save us." ”

Yi Jiaren nodded: "Well, I know." ”

Before he could say a few words, the jailer shouted, "Okay, no? Hurry up. ”

"Eh, here we are." Yi Jiaren agreed, and comforted his brother: "Don't worry, I'll come to see you in two days, and my uncle is trying to find a way to get you out." ”

"Hmm." Yi Linfeng nodded. Now I can only count on my uncle.

When he came out of the prison door, Yi Jiaren gave the cell head another five taels of silver: "Take care of the troublesome official." ”

"Well said, well said."

After staying up all night, Yi Jiaren went to the Lin Mansion again as soon as the morning dawned.

She found Lao Han first: "Is my uncle at home?" ”

"Here, go in and beg for it."

"Huh." Yi Jiaren walked straight inside, and before she reached the east hall, the housekeeper shouted: "Miss Cousin, don't go inside, the master is not at home." ”

"Lao Han said it just now."

The housekeeper was anxious: "Old Han... Lao Han knows something, and if I say no, I won't be there. ”

Yi Jiaren didn't listen to him, but walked inside.

When I came to the east hall, only the Lin brothers and sisters were having breakfast inside, and I really didn't see Lin Jin.

He hadn't gotten up yet.

Last time Lin Fengyin was beaten by her brother in the eastern suburbs paddock, Yi Jiaren didn't want to look for her, so she lowered her head and came to Lin Jun's side: "Table... Cousin. ”

Lin Jun ignored her and lowered his head to eat.

Because this cousin ran the hall in Yunxiang Restaurant, he was laughed at by his classmates a few times in the academy, and he knew why she came today, but he couldn't help with this, the Lin family's money was in Lin Fengyin's hands, and she had the final say.

"Cousin." Yi Jiaren shouted again.

After a while, Lin Jun pretended to see her suddenly: "It's my cousin, why are you here?" I haven't eaten breakfast yet, so sit down and eat, I have to go early because I haven't finished my homework at the academy yet. ”

Slipped.

"Eh..."Yi Jiaren came to Lin Fengjiao's side again: "Cousin..."

"Hehe... Cousin, don't tell me anything, I can't help with your business, Mr. is here, I have to go. Saying that, Lin Fengjiao also slipped away.

Only Lin Fengyin was left on the table.

My brother's life is at stake, and I don't know what it will be like to be tortured in prison again.

"Cousin." Yi Jiaren leaned up and stood beside him with his head bowed and looked very humble.

Lin Fengyin rinsed her mouth slowly, cleaned her hands, waved her hand to remove the remnant seat, and the maid came over to help her sit on the bed next to her.

"Cousin." Yi Jiaren shouted again. Lin Fengyin glanced at her at this time, without any expression on her face: "Our Lin family has helped to clear up a lot, and your brother will come out after being locked up in prison for three or five years." ”

"However, if he is locked up any longer, he will only have half a life left."

"I think his life is very hard, but he can't die with a flogging every day."

Yi Jiaren has heard of flogging, and the prisoners who have not gone to ransom have to be pulled out and beaten every day, thinking of her brother's situation yesterday, Yi Jiaren can't help but cry again.

With a horizontal heart and a dead face, Puff knelt in front of Lin Fengyin: "Ask my cousin to save my brother, as long as a thousand taels he will come out." ”

You must be sincere in asking for help.

"Hmph." Lin Fengyin sneered, picked up the teacup and drank tea, but was not moved by her sincerity, and moved her body in a different direction, regardless of her kneeling on the ground, she still remembered Yi Linfeng's hatred.

It took her a long time before she put down the teacup, "My good cousin, your tone is not small, only a thousand taels?" That's the food and clothing of our Lin Mansion for several months, you can say it lightly. ”

At the end, he turned around again, lowered his eyes, and twisted some incense into the incense burner: "Aren't you on good terms with Guo Xun, if you please him, your brother's matter will be solved." ”

"You..." Yi Jia was so angry that she couldn't speak.

If you don't help, forget it, and say cool things, if you want to please me, please Xiao Yuwen, I'll be angry with you.

"Hmph." Lin Fengyin sneered again, and then raised his hand slightly: "You get up, it's not that my cousin doesn't help you, it's really powerless, I showed you the way and you don't go, it's no wonder." ”

Last time, he was slapped by Yi Linfeng, and it hurt for several days, but this time he was arrested, Lin Fengyin couldn't be happier in his heart. A cheap breed is a cheap breed, and life is not worth much, not even a beast.

Seeing that Yi Jiaren was still kneeling and not leaving, Lin Fengyin looked upset, and shouted to the outside: "Housekeeper, send Miss Biao out." ”

"No need." Yi Jiaren stood up and wanted to leave, and said again at the end: "Your Lin family is good at doing it yourself." ”

Today is really self-inflicted, I thought that the Lin family would think of a little flesh and blood affection and help, but I was really blind, and I came to them, don't plant it in the hands of this girl in the future.

But who to turn to? was really anxious, she thought all the way and went to work in Zhongxiufang.

In the past two days, she has spent a lot of silver on her brother's affairs, and now she only has seven taels of silver left, and if she doesn't go to work, not to mention that her brother can't get it out, she will be hungry.

When she arrived at Zhong Xiufang, there were already two foreigners waiting in the store, and when she saw off those two people, she sat in a daze again.
