This year is a very important year for Lin Jinrong and the Lin family Sanfang, the Tao family, and Lin Shiquan.

In the spring, Dow bought a large area of sloping land, planted saplings, and asked someone to take care of them: at the same time, the Tao family also bought a large number of sloping land and planted saplings. A very small number of people in Pingzhou and Cheongju followed suit, a very small number of people scoffed at it, and a large number of people held a wait-and-see attitude. There are many people who follow the trend, and there is the figure of Mrs. Lu.

On the summer solstice, Lin Shiquan and the Tao family united with the merchant surnamed Mei, sent a batch of winter wheat to the northern border, when it was, the grain worth 20,000 was falsely estimated as 100,000 tea leads, and the tea was led to the thirteen mountains of Huainan to take tea, and it was transported back to Taiming Mansion for sale. This time, it is not a secret, nor is it predicted by anyone who is the smartest, but Lin Shiquan, who is keen to soak in the tea shop restaurant hotel, is well-informed, and then with the enthusiasm of young people, he dares to speak and do, is not afraid of hardship, can endure hardship, and then Lin Jinrong came forward to coordinate sufficient funds to make it possible.

The three families in Pingzhou are peaceful, and the rest of the Lin family have the heart of a thief but have no courage to be a thief, so they can only swallow their saliva: the Wu family has just been hit by Wu Xiang's exam-taking incident, and there is no one in charge of the family, so they automatically give up: the Lu family has a wait-and-see attitude for some reason, and has never interfered.

In the autumn, under the name of Tao, a grocery store was added to the shop run by Lin Shiquan, and Tie Erniu, who had been following Lin Shiquan, was promoted to be the manager of the grocery store because he was conscientious and responsible. When everyone didn't notice, Tao Fengtang went to Jiangnan alone to open a shop.

Tao Shunqin sat in the rear, and sent high-quality and low-cost incense, fur and other materials to the shops in Jiangnan, and Tao Fengtang sent the tea, silk, and embroidery in Jiangnan to Lin Shiquan and the shops of the Tao family in Qingzhou.

On the winter solstice, after a whole year, the canal dam of the Zhu River has begun to take shape, and it is expected that the water of the Tianhe River will be released into the field in April of the next year.

The situation is very good.

When Lamei Huā opened, Lin Jinrong looked at the account book in front of her with a fluttering eyebrow, very satisfied with her achievements in the past year. Not to mention that the more and more money in her hand made her feel unprecedentedly down-to-earth and satisfied, let's just say that she successfully picked up Tao Fengtang, and then said that Tao Shunqin went to Jiangnan to open a property, which was a huge success that was enough for people to sleep peacefully until dawn at night.

It was in this season of fragrant plum blossoms that a rumor quickly blew all over Pingzhou like a breeze. At the beginning, some people said that the recent wealth of the Lin family's third room and the Tao family all depends on Lin Shiquan, and it is not worth it to give him half of the money after making so much money: But some people immediately said that in fact, they all guessed wrong, Lin Shiquan is just the chief steward invited by the Lin family's third room, and the real people have been hiding behind the scenes.

There is no shortage of rumors in this world, and there is no shortage of people who are full of curiosity and desperately want to find out people's privacy, or simply have no purpose, just for the kind of people who like to listen and talk. When the rumors spread, everyone suddenly realized that the person who had been hiding behind the scenes and planning was not Mrs. Lin San, who had been grumpy and couldn't be a person in her early years, Tao: nor Tao Shunqin, who had been low-key and stable in her early years, although she was rich and famous, she had been keeping a low profile: let alone Lin Shiquan, a poor boy who suddenly appeared out of the countryside. It's the four girls of the Lin family.

So the curious people had infinite interest in this Lin Si girl, who was raised in the deep boudoir but was so powerful, and had infinite conjectures. Countless versions are circulating in the market, it doesn't matter if you don't know the name of Miss Lin Si, the title of Miss Lin Si is enough to be chewed on by people often on their lips. The rumors spread so fast that Old Lady Lin, Lin Shiquan and others were caught off guard when they found out.

When the rumors came into the Lin family, Lin Jinrong was sitting calmly in front of the embroidery frame under the window, facing the warm winter sun, and embroidering her dowry with her own hands. The pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water on the bright red satin is lively and bright, and she doesn't have any superfluous feelings, just trying her best to complete a perfect embroidery. Because for a long time after that, she would face this brother every day and rely on it to decorate the façade, so as to tell others what a clever and virtuous woman she was.

Lychee looked at Lin Jinrong's quiet and soft side face and dexterous movements, and swallowed the words again, she really couldn't bear to tell Lin Jinrong what was happening outside. But anyone who is so strong and face-saving is afraid that she will die of shame and indignation when she knows that she is being circulated and speculated and speculated like this repeatedly outside. Lychee was infinitely embarrassed, after giving Lin Jinrong three cups of hot tea and a pot of charcoal, she still couldn't speak, and she couldn't let someone do it for her, Mama Gui had already cried so much that her eyes were swollen into a slit, what else could she expect?

But Lin Jinrong spoke: "Lychee, you say it to me or someone else tells it to me, you choose it yourself."

From the moment Lychee entered the door, she had already felt Lychee's dodgy gaze and hesitation to speak. It won't be a good thing, she knows it very well, but no matter how bad it is, can it be worse than what she is about to face? No.

Of course, Lychee chose her to tell Lin Jinrong: "I don't know which one killed a thousand knives, talking nonsense outside......" Lychee said very carefully, tried to pick out nice words, and was even ready to stop talking and go forward to comfort Lin Jinrong, but Lin Jinrong kept holding a cup of tea, looking at the sunshine outside the window, listening quietly, and didn't even interject a word halfway, as if he was listening to someone else's story.

Lychee gritted her teeth and finished speaking in one breath, but she only got a faint sentence: "What do the family say?" Did Taiyou cry? ”

How is it possible not to cry? For people like them, sometimes a rumor is likely to ruin a family affair and a lifetime. There is no way for Dow, otherwise the heart of the person who chews his tongue will be split alive, Lychee sighed: "The old lady called Mrs. away." Girl, you have to think ......."

"I can think about it, and my wife will think about Yi too." Such rumors will stop by themselves after a while. Lin Jinrong was very calm. If it was before, she would not have thought about it, but now it may not be. It's just that the daughter of a scholarly family can do business, and her name has been passed on several times, and it's not that she has done something ugly that is unruly and unseemly.

First, she didn't show up, at most she gave Tao and Tao Shunqin and others a few ideas that caused everyone to get rich: Second, she managed the accounts and shop, and everyone in the family knew that no one had said anything wrong. At this time, it was turned out to make a fuss, just because she has not yet come out of the cabinet, there are many taboos, if she is a married woman, it is still a great thing to be good at managing the dowry.

What she has been able to do and what she needs to do in the past few years has basically been done smoothly, what is she not satisfied with? If you want to open, you must be content. But it's really funny to say, at first she carefully hid it, in fact, she took a great risk to exchange gold and silver, buy saline-alkali land, grain into the middle, buy and sell incense, no one stared at her, everyone spontaneously attributed the credit to Tao Shunqin: and in the past two years, when she was down-to-earth and steadily moving forward step by step, she attracted people's eyes. There are a lot of things in this world that she can't figure out.

"Girl, old lady, please go to Tingtaoju immediately." Cherry came in with infinite worry to speak, and her voice was so small that she could barely hear it: "The Lu family is here." ”

The Lu family sent someone to the door so quickly at this time, and Old Lady Lin then summoned Lin Jinrong to come over, and he could guess what it was for without thinking about it. Lychee's face turned white as soon as she "brushed", trembling lips and holding Lin Jinrong's hand worriedly, wanting to say two words of comfort, but couldn't say a complete sentence: "Girl...... "You...... Slave ......"

"Don't be afraid, what's there to be afraid of?" There was a strange gentle reassuring effect in Lin Jinrong's voice: "Go and get me a cloak and shoes to go out." ”

Lychee and Cherry didn't understand why she was so calm, but this was obviously not the time to think about this, and soon Lin Jinrong finished dressing, and she even looked in the mirror before going out.

Along the way, the eyes of the girls and mothers-in-law I met were flickering, some sympathetic, some indifferent, some gloating, all kinds of things. Lin Jinrong felt that she had never been so calm in her life, and she could even calmly analyze everyone's expressions and eyes when they greeted her, what kind of thoughts they represented, whether they liked her, why they didn't like her, and who were the people behind them.

At this moment, the road to Tingtaoju is too close for lychees and cherries, but for Lin Jinrong, it is too far. She couldn't wait to walk to Tingtaoju in three steps and two steps, and listen to what the people who came in a hurry from the Lu family said. If it weren't for the fact that she didn't want people to think that she was panicking, for fear of losing this family business, she would have hurried to go.

No matter how far the road is, there is always a time to go, and no matter how close the road is, there is also a distance.

Lin Jinrong finally saw the door of Tingtaoju.

In the courtyard of Tingtaoju, there was a thin and tall man wearing a white ramie shirt and a ribbon tied to the tree. Hearing the sound, he slowly turned his head, and his dark eyes met Lin Jinrong's eyes.

It turned out that he was the one who came so quickly! But it was really fast enough, rushing back from Mr. Zhu's house, and hurried home to change into such a dazzling set of clothes, and then rushed here so quickly, why? Can't stand such rumors? Can't stand this?

Lin Jinrong looked towards Lu Xuan, casually and indifferently, curled the corners of his lips to show a smile, and then like a breeze, gently walked past him, stepped on the Ruyi stack steadily, stopped in front of Old Lady Lin's door, and knocked on the door calmly.
