One by one, all the way forward, the journey was smooth, Lin Shiquan was only afraid that Lin Jinrong and Yilang would be uncomfortable. When it is hot, you have to find that cool place to rest, and when the climate is comfortable, you will go a little more, and every time you go to a place, the ship docks to rest, and you must personally get off the ship to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables, and supervise the ship's careful preparation of meals, which is more thoughtful and meticulous than when Lin Jinrong and Lu Lu entered Beijing.

Yi Lang also lived up to everyone's expectations, he was very healthy and lively, able to eat and sleep, and it was his favorite to bask in the sun on the bow of the boat when the wind was calm every day, and it was his happiest moment to play with Lin Jinrong and Lin Shiquan. On the contrary, Mama Sha was still seasick as usual, although she never vomited after using the boatman's secret recipe, she was still drowsy all day long, and most of the time she hid in the cabin and fell asleep. Although Lin Jinrong pitied her for being old and frail, he had nothing to do, so he could only order the boat family to make her some light supplements, and Lin Shiquan also remembered to leave her a copy of the fresh melons and fruits that he went to buy.

Lin Shiquan showed his true colors of settling accounts and plans along the way, even if he walked slowly, he did not delay for too long, and arrived at Wuyi Wharf on the evening of September 26, where the Jiangshen Temple was located.

The servants sent by the Lu family to pick up their mother and son had been waiting on the shore for a long time, and as soon as the ship docked, someone came forward to confirm that it was them, and when they heard that it was them, the person in charge immediately asked to see them. It was Lu Song who came when Mrs. Lu planned to bring Lu Lu into the capital, and Lin Jinrong accepted his salute on the deck: "It's hard, how long have you waited?" ”

Lu Song said with a smile: "It's not hard, it only arrived yesterday, I thought I would have to spend Dan Day again, but I never thought that grandma would come so quickly." Fortunately, the old lady was in a hurry and kept urging, otherwise she was afraid that she would make a mistake. The inn has already been booked, and grandma and the fourth young master can stay and rest when they go ashore. Let's rest for a day, and we'll go again tomorrow morning. ”

Lin Jinrong asked him, "How is Mrs. Lou's health?" Lu Song said cautiously: "The little one hasn't seen the old lady for some days." It's all the words of the Fan Steward, but it's good to think about it. ”

According to the experience of her previous life, Old Lady Lu should have been bedridden at this moment, and the reason why it was not spread was probably because everyone thought that she would survive like the previous times. Lin Jinrong groaned slightly, instructed Lu Song to command people to unload their luggage, and beckoned Lin Shiquan to go ashore.

When he reached a wide place, he could see the Jiang Temple in the distance, and Lin Jinrong said: "Third brother, have you ever been to that Jiang Temple?" ”

Lin Shiquan didn't care: "Of course I've been there, I've crossed the river by boat several times, and I've gone to worship." Seeing Lin Jinrong standing there and looking around, his heart moved, "Does the fourth sister want to go and see?" ”

Lin Jinrong smiled: "I want to go and see, is the third brother free?" We have gone back and forth on this river so many times, and each time it is a smooth sail, and we should go to the funeral. ”

Lin Shiquan said: "The left and right have already arrived here, let's rest first, and it's not too late to see it tomorrow." It doesn't hurt to stay here for two more days. Old lady Lu passed away in the early morning of September 30, if he was still on the way, it would be fine, but he had already arrived here, only two days away from Pingzhou, Lin Jinrong didn't want to stay here for a long time, so he said: "The old lady is so concerned, it is really inappropriate for me to stay here for a long time." I'll just go and see, if the third brother wants to go, he can go, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't want to go. ”

Where can Lin Shiquan rest assured that she will go alone? After returning to the inn to take a bath, he took a short rest, and then accompanied Lin Jinrong to the Jiangshen Temple.

Aunt Jin was sitting under the eaves choosing vegetables, and when she saw her come in, she was taken aback, and then laughed: "It turned out to be the second grandmother." Are you here to worship? Please come here. "But it's much more enthusiastic and energetic than when we first met.

Lin Jinrong asked Mama Gong to bring twenty taels of silver for her last time, but Aunt Jin didn't want it as usual, and said that she would worship the god of Jiang for Lin Jinrong. Lin Jinrong came here, and Aunt Jin only came to check whether the money she donated was enshrined in front of Jiang Shen, so she had to lead Lin Jinrong inside, and pointed out to her all the way: "Three incense sticks in the morning and evening, daily offerings of fasting fruits, and sacrifices during the New Year's holidays are also ......."

Lin Jinrong took a casual look, found a vacancy, and directly met the temple Zhu, indicating that if Aunt Jin was willing to marry, she would be willing to make a dowry and buy dozens of acres of land around for them to make a living. She figured it out, and she had to wait for Aunt Jin to speak herself, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to wait until the Year of the Monkey and Ma Yue, so she didn't have to ask more, just go to the temple to smash the silver.

The temple was overjoyed, and he had to say a lot of words of gratitude, and called Jingu Jin to come in and kowtow to Lin Jinrong on the spot to thank him.

Lin Jinrong accepted the half-salute from Aunt Jin, ordered Lin Gui to give twenty taels of silver as a dowry for Aunt Jin, and left money at the market price for his father and daughter to buy land.

Lin Shiquan frowned slightly, disagreeing with her behavior very much, but he didn't stop her in front of everyone, and only said tactfully after returning to the inn: "Is Ah Rong's Yizhuang going to start here?" But it also gives too much, like this, no matter how much furniture there is, it can't help but be used by a few people. You are a little thinner, as long as you are enough to marry, and the money you save can help a few more people. "Jin Gu is different from those people. Lin Jinrong knew his good intentions, and he didn't want to explain to him, so he said with a smile: The third brother doesn't know something, this is located on a traffic artery, and the merchants who cross the river more or less love to go to the temple of the river to worship. If I want to make a name for myself, I should start here. It's like doing business, and the first business is of course better to lose money than to do decently, so as to make a reputation. Lin Shiquan saw that she was serious, but knew that she was not such a greedy person, and after thinking about it, most people would oppose what Lin Jinrong was going to do in the future, so it was better to advance step by step in this way from now on, and there would be less resistance at that time, so he stopped persuading her, and scolded with a smile: "Yes, Lin Dashan is a good person." ”

Lin Jinrong raised his forehead and smiled: "Don't call me like this, it's weird and ugly." He asked him again: "Last year, we passed by here, and Min Xing rescued that Wang Lichun, and he told Min Xing that there were mountain bandits near here."

Does the third brother know about this? ”

Lin Shiquan said: "I heard Erlang say it on the way, what? ”

Lin Jinrong pouted him: "It's nothing, I just came here and suddenly remembered this incident, at that time, Min Xing specially told the security chief to let him report to the official to suppress the bandits, and I don't know if this group of mountain bandits is still there now?" Is there any extermination? ”

Cup Shiquan happened to be bored: "I'll go and inquire, and I'll come back to tell you." ”

Lin Jinrong hugged Yi Lang in the room and laughed and amused, and asked the kitchen to steam a bowl of egg custard for Yi Lang. After Yilang ate all the bowls of egg custard, he fell asleep in Lin Jinrong's arms, and Lin Shiquan also came back: "Of course it is, it is said that someone was robbed again last month, and two days ago, someone was robbed in the downstream inlet, and the family of seven all lost their lives, and a flag was planted in the bow of the boat, which said to do the right thing for heaven." ”

There are not only mountain bandits, but also a stream of water bandits, Lin Jinrong trembled: "Isn't the government going to attack and arrest?" ”

Lin Shiquan sneered: "If you want to send troops to attack, where is it so easy?" At that time, I heard that a team of people and horses had also come out in a huge way, tossing the people for a long time, and did nothing, not to mention suppressing bandits, but even the bandits went again without paying attention to them. The capital is more abrasive than mountain bandits and water bandits, and at that time, everyone in this neighborhood is eager for them to leave quickly, who cares about those who died unjustly? ”

"Then there is no other way? Just let these villains harm others? Lin Jinrong was so sad that he wanted to grab his hair. She said that these bandits must have something to do with the banditry, and if they could use the power of the government to sweep away these people first, they would not be so chaotic and miserable in the future. How could she, an ordinary woman, not be able to stretch her hand so far to facilitate this kind of thing.

"It depends on what the official thinks. If you meet someone who really wants to do something, it's just a matter of determination, otherwise, it's this group of bandits who are unlucky and bump into someone who shouldn't be messed with, and the government has to take care of it, otherwise I'm afraid it will be difficult. Lin Shiquan shook his head and sighed, and sighed again: "Fortunately, no one has committed murder on the avenue, otherwise it would be quite difficult for us to walk this road." ”

He said this for a long time and didn't see Lin Jinrong answer, so he couldn't help but raise his eyes to look, but saw Lin Jinrong's eyebrows furrowed, as if it was countless things on his mind, so he regretted that he shouldn't have told her about these dangerous things, so he said haha: "Forget it, don't think about these things, think more happy things, you can meet the third aunt and the little seventh brother immediately, and I can also see Liu'er immediately." Rest early. Lin Jinrong sent him out, and when he went back, he hugged Yilang and nested in bed, full of thoughts about the banditry. Her strength is too weak, and Lu Xuan's strength is also limited, not to mention that there is a most deadly problem mixed in with this... She can't speak, so it's harder to get support from others. She stroked Yi Lang's pink little face and sighed softly.

Nothing was said all night.

In the early morning of the next day, Lin Jinrong waited for Yilang to sleep enough and eat and drink enough before getting up and rushing back to Pingzhou.

Yi Lang was no more quiet and well-behaved than on the ship, he was very dissatisfied with the fact that he had to stay in a closed and narrow carriage for a long time, and cried vigorously when he didn't sleep, crying so much that Lin Jinrong was distressed to death.

I had to pinch a little, take care of Yi Lang as much as possible, stop and go, the journey of less than two days was full of three days, until the evening of the 29th, the carriage finally entered Pingzhou City.

Lu Song had already sent people forward to report the news, and when Lin Jinrong's carriage arrived at the door, Lu Jing led a group of people to drive out, leading the horses, pulling the carts, and carrying the luggage. Seeing this, Lin Shiquan said goodbye to Lin Jinrong: "I won't send you in, I'll go and talk to the third aunt first, report safety, and save them from worrying."

Lin Jinrong didn't keep him, and thanked him through the carriage: "Thank you, third brother, for bothering you to tell my mother, I will come to visit them in a few days." ”

The carriage stopped at the second gate, and the mother-in-law came up to help Lin Jinrong get off the car, and they all saluted her and Yilang to congratulate her, Lin Jinrong looked up at the Lu Mansion at night, and quietly ordered Cherry: "Reward, anyone who helps to move things and pick up people today will be rewarded." ”
