Chapter 427: Worry
After Lu Jianxin used the home remedies sent by Lu Xuan, the symptoms of gout were slightly lighter, the pain was relieved, but his mood became heavier and heavier. The passing year is not good, and this spring is really difficult.
For one, the man who had been friendly with him and who had played a key role in his imminent recovery had fallen unlucky without warning. Of course, he has been immersed in officialdom for many years, not only this branch, but in the end, the friendship is different, in the early years, he worked this person, thinking that this person would be a long way in the future, and he would go further, who would have thought that he would look away. Thanks to his cleverness, he didn't show any traces on weekdays and was never implicated. But in the future, it will take a lot of effort to re-expand other branches and find a good one.
Secondly, after Lu Lu and Lin Jinrong came back from the academy, they said that they saw too many hungry people along the way, but they did not see the imperial court opening a warehouse to release grain.
Lu Jianxin disagreed, he has only been in the position of Zhizhou for so many years, relying on acting prudently, not soliciting right and wrong, and being exquisite. If you are not in your position, you don't seek your own government, and you can concentrate on filial piety, what do you do when you cause these troubles that are not beneficial? But he knew Lu Mian's temper, and he was afraid that Lu Mian would come up stubbornly and make nonsense without hesitating him, so he called Lin Jinrong behind Lu Mian's back and whispered an order, asking her to persuade Lu Mian and watch Lu Mian.
Lin Jinrong was worried when he heard this, and said that he would definitely persuade Lu Mian. Next, Lu Mian didn't make any unusual movements, rested for two days, and went to look for him again, saying that he wanted to set up a porridge shed to give porridge. He thought about it, and felt that it was to appease Lu Xuan, so he responded. But he euphemistically said that he had just separated from his family, and he had just suffered a disaster, and he didn't have so much food at home, Lu Mian said very happily. Lin Jinrong said. All he needs to do is agree with it.
It's not that he wants to do things with his own food. Lu Jianxin had nothing to object, so he only asked people to call Lin Jinrong and instructed him and his wife: "It's a good thing to want to do good deeds, but you also have to do what you can. You also have to prevent your family from having no food. "Now that food prices are high, one more day is a lot of money!
Lin Jinrong agreed very happily at the time, but he couldn't feel that there was a bit of disapproval in her eyes. The two children disagreed with him, although they were superficially deferential. But Inside doesn't approve of him! Lu Jianxin knew very well in his heart that this situation could not continue, and he had to find an opportunity to solve it.
This is the second one.
Third. It's a matter of sea freight again. With years of experience in ups and downs, he already had an intuition that something was wrong with this sea trip! It's just that with that bit of luck, Ba Wang can reduce the loss to the lightest.
So, in an anxious wait. Lu Jianxin's gout was not cured, so he added to the fire, and his eyes were red and his teeth hurt, which was really unbearable.
Fourth, there was a rumor from the side of the masters, and she planned to unite with the daughters of wealthy families in Pingzhou City to set up a righteous village, specifically to help poor women who had lost their travel period to get married. There are a lot of things to say in the righteousness, but to put it bluntly, it is to ask everyone to pay! Mr. Zhu is quite famous in the realm of Pingzhou, and many people are eager to send their children and grandchildren to him, so that they can soar into the sky. Therefore, as soon as the masters and wives spoke, many wealthy families responded, and the Tao family was the first to respond, and the Wu family's wife, Wu Xiang's mother, Yang, also responded positively, and I heard that it was Mrs. Zhizhou and Mrs. Zhixian who also generously agreed.
Lu Mian relied on Mr. Zhu's advice to get to where he is today, Lin Yuzhen can't shirk it here, Lin Jinrong, everyone knows that she has a rich dowry and is enthusiastic, of course, she is also indispensable. Lu Jianxin's teeth hurt so much, although it is a matter for the female dependents, but he is afraid that his family will pay the most. He was a little annoyed, these many moths were only after that trip to the academy, and most of them had a lot to do with Lin Jinrong. So he asked people to watch and see how Lin Jinrong would move.
Lin Jinrong and Lu Lu were also acting quickly, and Lin Jinrong was preparing to give twenty days of porridge. She has been prepared for a long time, the harvest of the previous year has not been sold, the people are about to rise, this lot of food can not be taken away, she has no intention of selling it at this time to make the people difficult to make money, it is better to give more at this time, can save more people is a person, and it is good to alleviate and relieve. And the Lu family refused to give porridge, she had expected it, so she didn't say a word - Old Lady Lu's granary, which was always full, should be kept to help the clansmen when the time comes.
First of all, last year's disaster, everyone attaches great importance to this year's spring ploughing, and he has to personally go to Lin Jinrong's grange, big house, and three-room grange every three or five times to supervise the head of the village to run errands; Secondly, soup soup is a big thing, and if you are not careful, a good thing will become a bad thing, and you can't help but watch carefully. In addition, he also had to go around to visit the people's situation - to persuade Yu Zongsheng to stop in moderation, how could it be convincing if he didn't come up with enough evidence?
Both of them are using their meager strength to do what they think is right.
The most worried person is Lin Shiquan, in order to cooperate with Lin Jinrong, he is also very busy these days, and his heart is even more confused. Lin Jinrong's recent work is quite unusual - originally she wanted to build a Yizhuang, she needed a lot of money to support, according to his thoughts, the industry in Jiangnan was more prepared for this matter, but since the beginning of the year before last, she did not allow him to send the profits from Jiangnan back to Pingzhou, all of them bought land on the spot to open shops, or stored in the local bank. This time, he planned to draw some of the money over there for emergency, but Lin Jinrong didn't allow it, but let him draw it from this side.
Then there is the matter of the tea shop, the five-year lease is about to expire, and the original owner of the house has asked someone to inquire about whether he wants to renew the contract. The business of the tea shop has always been very good, and after doing it all these years, the fame has also come out, it is the time to make good money, he thought it was no problem, and he would definitely renew the contract, but in the spirit of respecting Lin Jinrong, he still made people run away, and did not reply before making his own opinion, but Lin Jinrong's reply was not renewed!
If it weren't for the fact that the person who passed the word was completely trustworthy, Lin Shiquan would almost have to wonder if he and Lin Jinrong had been deceived by someone. He faintly had some doubts, feeling that Lin Jinrong seemed to be not very concerned about the business on Pingzhou's side, and even wanted to stop. But Lin Jinrong had not said anything to him before, which could not help but make him very worried.
Lin Shiquan thought about his thoughts, staggered to a tea shop under the scorching sun, and happened to see Lu Mian coming out of it, and was hugging his fists goodbye to a few people wearing coarse cloth and short brown, so he dialed the horse and waited quietly aside, and when Lu Mian finished talking to others, Fang called out to him: "Erlang, where are you going?" ”
Lu Lu was quite happy to see him, and greeted him with a smile: "Where is the third brother going?" ”
Lin Shiquan greeted him and said worriedly: "I'm going to see Ah Rong." She seems to be a little unconscious lately. So she told the matter of the tea shop, and faintly mentioned that she wanted to draw the funds here to build Yizhuang, but she didn't dare to mention Jiangnan, only said that the treasure store in Beijing and the industry in Huating County: "The funds over there are abundant, and the money has been saved since the beginning of the money, I originally wanted to draw the funds over there, but she didn't allow it, she had to pump here, but in this way, doesn't it affect the business here?" Besides, the tea shop, such a good business, if she doesn't renew the contract, is it possible to give this ready-made cheap to others to pick up? ”
Lin Shiquan was a little angry when he said: "I didn't mention this to me earlier, if I didn't know that she was guarding against me and didn't believe me, I would have to wonder if she wanted to drive me away!" ”
Lu Mian didn't know much about Lin Jinrong's business affairs, and when he heard this, he hurriedly smiled and persuaded Lin Shiquan: "Third brother Mo is angry, there is something wrong with her, wait for me to scold her for you!" ”
Lin Shiquan smiled bitterly: "I'm very angry, I have to be angry!" I think that at the beginning, just such a little money, such a small shop, exhausted, and careful every step, it was not easy to get to today, but she had to give up so easily, how could I not be angry? If she doesn't want to worry about it, I can do it all, and I don't want her to worry about it much. ”
"Mo Qi, Mo Qi!" Lu Lu pushed him to his house: "She has probably been busy recently, when the two of us go back, call her out, and ask her face-to-face." ”
Lin Shiquan said: "I'm going to ask her in person, if she is really confused, you have to stop her!" This is the hometown, it is the foundation, if nothing else, it is for Yilang, and you have to stay more. He still hasn't said a word, although Jiangnan is good, it is not the fundamental origin of the Lu family, Yilang is surnamed Lu in the end, and he must have his own industry in Pingzhou to stand firm.
Lu Lu agreed: "Definitely, definitely." ”
Lin Shiquan was an adult man who had seen the world in the end, so he suppressed his anger and depression, and turned to talk to Lu Lu about soup kitchen: "Several families have set up porridge sheds, but they can't stand up chopsticks like us, and the time for giving is not long. Now the Lu family's reputation is obvious, but no one recognizes that you and Ah Rong did it. ”
Lu Lu said: "If you can do it, someone will follow you, this is excellent." What do you do with that false name? Yan sighed: "I'm afraid that these things will be difficult to alleviate." ”
Lin Shiquan heard what he said, and hurriedly said, "What do you mean?" ”
Lu Lu endured it, pointed to the towering city wall in the distance, and said in a low voice: "I have been checking everywhere these days, natural disasters are not forcing people to die, but ** are forcing people to die." ”
Lin Shiquan suddenly remembered a few rumors in the market, and sighed softly: "It's already forcing people to death." Jiro heard about that the day before yesterday, right? "It is said that a family is poor and has no strong men, no money to resist forced labor, and no strong strength, the old and the small have to go to repair the city wall, but the small one is sick, the old one wants to ask for a day off, but no, the small one desperately carries bricks, dizzy, one foot in the air, falls to death under the city wall, the old one is inexplicably sad and angry, and dies on the city wall.
Lu Mu pursed his lips tightly, and said in a low voice, "I can't wait." ”
Lin Shiquan was about to ask him what he couldn't wait, when he saw the pedestrians on the street running in one direction like flowing water.
