Early the next morning, Yun Juan entered Lin Ruyu's boudoir lightly and asked in a low voice through the bed curtain, "Is the girl awake?"

Lin Ruyu, who had a good night's sleep, answered, "Is there news from the dock?"

"Yes."

Yun Juan rolled up the veil and hung it on the silver hooks on both sides of the bed, and said happily, "Uncle Tai sent someone back to report that as soon as the mast of our cargo ship to Wangping Town was erected, it was stopped by the Zhang family and the Song family with Master Sicang Shuzuo Xu. After discovering that our ship was loaded with food and clothing, Lord Xu rebuked the two families and asked them to donate 150 stone of relief food each."

One hundred and fifty stones, with the strength of the Zhang and Song families, it will not hurt their muscles and bones, but it is enough to make their flesh hurt for a while.

Lin Ruyu, who succeeded in the plan, couldn't wait to hum a few little tunes, "Let Uncle Tai inquire about Sicang Shuzuo's details clearly."

After Yunjuan went out, Lin Ruyu got up after getting dressed, sat in front of the dresser and asked Yuying to comb her hair, thinking seriously about what this Sicang Shuzuo did.

Sicang Shuzuo, as the name suggests, is an official who is the cashier of the main place, although this official position is not high-level, but he holds real power. Xuanzhou pharmacists took over the yamen's requisition list, and in a strict sense, the herbs that were placed in the warehouses of the four pharmacists were on the requisition list, and they were under the jurisdiction of Sicang Shuzuo.

Therefore, Lord Xu followed the Zhang and Song families to the dock to inspect the goods on the Lin family's ship, which sounded reasonable.

However, in the case that the Zhang and Song families did not have real evidence, this Shuzuo did not ask the Lin family for verification, so he directly took people to turn over the Lin family's cargo ship, either he was really a fool, or he had colluded with the Zhao and Song families, and regarded the wealth of the two families as his bag.

Lin Ruyu prefers the latter.

Because if this Xu Shuzuo is really a fool, he will follow the ladder he built for him on the dock and slaughter the Zhang and Song families.

Seven of the thirteen counties affected by the disaster were under the jurisdiction of Xuanzhou, so among the three prefectures in this disaster fight, the heaviest task was Xuanzhou. The two items of grain and medicine, for the Xuanzhou Yamen, are naturally more and better.

Xu Shuzuo didn't dig out the grain of the Zhang and Song families, and he might dig out the Lin family with the two families next, so I have to listen to what my mother said.

The Rainwarbler combed the girl's hair in a bun, tied a pink ribbon, and put two gardenias in her left bun, and asked with a smile, "Girl, do you think this is possible?"

Lin Ruyu raised her eyes, looked at the white gardenia on her head in the bronze mirror, and nodded slightly, "Very good."

July 21 was the death day of Lin Ruyu's grandfather, but because her mother received the news that her grandmother was seriously ill, she hurriedly took herself and Ah Heng to Chuzhou, but she couldn't go to her grandparents' grave to worship on the right day.

Today is a good day to worship Sasau, and the mother will take her and her brother to worship their grandparents. To pay homage to deceased loved ones, it is best to wear a white gardenia.

Before that, Lin Ruyu still had something to do, "The jewelry that Zhang Yuzhen took from me was all sent back?"

Yuying puffed out her cheeks, "I only sent back some worthless ones, and the rest were lost a long time ago."

Only pick up the valuable ones, heh.

Lin Ruyu instructed, "Go and tell Uncle Xiang that if my eldest aunt comes to the door, don't alarm my mother, I'll go to the front hall to see her." ….

Yun Juan came in with two little maids carrying copper basins, waited for Lin Ruyu to wash, and asked curiously, "How did the girl know that the eldest aunt and grandmother would come?"

"The Zhang family lost face and damaged food at the dock, so it's no wonder that the eldest aunt didn't come." Lin Ruyu motioned for the little maids to go out and rolled up her sleeves and washed her face.

After fusing the memories of the two lives, because the seventeen-year memories of the later generations dominated, Lin Ruyu was used to doing her own things, and she didn't want to let the maid wash her face.

As soon as she finished washing, Yuying ran in from outside and reported that Aunt Lin was coming.

was stopped in the front hall, holding her belly full of fire, Aunt Lin saw Lin Ruyu walk in, and scolded with her head and face, "What about your mother? Hiding and not daring to see people when you do something wrong? Let her out!"

Lin Ruyu stepped sideways to avoid the saliva sprayed on her head and face, and gave Aunt Lin a salute in a calm manner, "My aunt came to the door early in the morning and accused my mother in front of me, which one is it?

」

As the old saying goes: It is rude to scold the father to the son.

Of course, the same is true for scolding women.

Aunt Lin, who was reprimanded by her niece for being rude, laughed angrily, "Am I rude? I'm rude! I'm going to go out and let the neighbors judge you, and see if your mother and daughter are so good, who dares to come and propose marriage and marry you back!"

If it was Lin Ruyu in the previous life, she would definitely be bluffed by Aunt Lin, but at this moment, Lin Ruyu's dark and smart eyes were not afraid, but followed her words, "Which neighbors does Auntie want to judge? Don't bother you to make a trip yourself, my niece will invite people over and let them listen to your face."

Aunt Lin frowned and looked up and down at her niece who couldn't even speak loudly before, how could this girl come back after going out for a few days, how could she be like a different person?

Aunt Lin didn't want to break with a doll anymore, so she shook her sleeves and said, "I can't tell you, go and call your mother out!"

Lin Ruyu shook her head, "My mother is preparing to worship her grandparents, if my aunt thinks that our mother and daughter have done something wrong, why don't you go to the ancestral grave of the Lin family with us and tell your grandfather and grandmother?"

Aunt Lin, who was weak-hearted, snorted, "You are the one who deceived the Zhang family first, and I am not afraid to reason with me wherever I go!"

Lin Ruyu nodded, "Then ask my aunt to prepare and go with us to worship our grandparents."

"You...... Hmph!" Aunt Lin shook her sleeves, "When I am as unfilial as you? I was there on the 21st of July!"

Lin Ruyu's beautiful and dignified little face was full of admiration, "The eldest aunt really has filial piety, and grandfather and grandmother didn't hurt you in vain when they were alive."

Aunt Lin was choked by her niece's words, and she had the heart to throw off her sleeves and leave, but when she thought of her fierce husband at home, she couldn't move away.

Lin Ruyu saw that she was still not leaving, so she continued, "Since my aunt is here, let's bring this list back. This is the jewelry that my cousin stole or borrowed from me, please urge my aunt to urge her to return it to me as soon as possible."

Aunt Lin's heart hurt even more, "Do you have to be angry with me, a dead girl? I've really hurt you all these years!"

Hurt me? Scold.

Lin Ruyu looked aggrieved, "It is precisely because you love me that I will return this blessing to my cousin. It is illegal to steal, and what you borrow must be returned, and I am here to urge Cousin Yuzhen to be a good girl who is trustworthy and respectful and kind, isn't it right for my niece to do it?"

Aunt Lin raised her hand to cover her heart, "Jiaojiao, who is well-behaved and polite in my family, can't say these words, you tell the truth to my aunt, which black-hearted person taught you these words?"

Who taught? It is the bloody experience of the previous life, and it is the self-realization of experiencing the warmth and coldness of the world for seventeen years.

Lin Ruyu's smile didn't reach the bottom of her eyes, "I'm such a character, but my aunt doesn't know it."
