Chapter 203: Another Ledger

Naturally, the Lin family did not die, but she also lost half her life, and what she couldn't bear the most was why she had to suffer such a crime?

The next day, Lin slept until nearly noon and got up, and heard that the county magistrate, Zhao Gonggong, and Zhang Gongzi had all gone out, and Lin wore clothes to go out despite the physical pain.

It was hard to walk, so Lin called for a sedan chair and carried it to the door before changing the carriage.

The carriage stopped at Su's incense shop, and Lin walked in, she didn't take anyone with her, and the maids were left in the carriage.

After entering, Lin said to the shopkeeper, "I want to see your owner." ”

The shopkeeper saw that it was her, and without saying a word, he invited her to the back.

Qin Xun sat in the window of the wing room on the second floor to roast and drink tea, and the opposite position was empty, and the Lin family sat directly after coming in.

Today's Lin is unceremonious, and there is no falsehood in the past.

"You, what's wrong?" Qin Xun raised his head, looked at the paleness that Lin couldn't hide with grease and powder, and couldn't help but ask.

"What else? You should know about being tortured by that old brute, right? Lin was uncomfortable, and leaned back.

Qin Xun couldn't help frowning, stood up, took the pillow on the couch, and quietly stuffed it behind Lin's body.

"Lean on it!"

A simple sentence, a cushion, made Lin's nose sour.

Qin Qian poured her a cup of hot tea, and Lin took it and drank it all, as if it was not tea, but spirits.

I don't know why, Qin Xun is a little uncomfortable.

poured her another cup of tea, and Qin Xun whispered, "Drink it slowly, it's hot!" ”

"I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of being hot? Hahahaha! Lin laughed wantonly, but tears flowed down his eyes.

"Qin Xun, you are doing well, naturally you don't understand how sad, painful, and helpless a woman like me is!"

Qin Xun wanted to say that he understood it very well, but he was just thinking about it.

She didn't even open her mouth to comfort Lin, you know, such pain, comfort is useless.

After crying and laughing for a long time, after venting, Lin's mood finally stabilized.

It's just that after venting, Lin became silent.

She lifted her legs to the chair, wrapped her arms around her knees, rested her chin on her knees, and stared at the red coals in a daze.

Qin Xun took a book to read, didn't urge her, only quietly accompanies her.

"I know that you care about me for a purpose. I also know that no one in this world will treat me sincerely. ”

Qin Xun raised his head, rolled up the book against his chin, and looked at Lin Shi without speaking.

Lin just wanted to say that he didn't need Qin Xun's answer.

"I didn't have parents when I was a child, and my grandparents said they got sick and died. I'm very young and ignorant, so what does it matter if I don't have a father? ”

Later, my grandmother also died.

Lin lived with her uncle and aunt, and at that time, she already knew that life without her father and mother would be difficult.

"I followed him when I was fifteen, almost five years ago. He took me with him when he took me to office, and I thought I was the most favored. As a result, it is not a joke of a eunuch. ”

Such a green hat is willing to wear it, and he is not a man at all.

Lin did not give birth to a child, because his wife was not allowed, and quietly fed her medicine that she could never get pregnant. When she found out later, she made a big fuss, and he persuaded her that it was better not to have children, just to be able to rely on him wholeheartedly.

He also promised to be good to her in the future, for the rest of her life.

The young Lin believed it and stopped making trouble.

At this time, Lin's heart was like ashes, and he regarded Qin Xun as the only person who could speak, like taking out garbage, and told her plain and painful life again.

"Thank you, Qin Xun, thank you for coming out to talk to me. I'm so much better now! Lin finally regained his previous false face, and took out a notebook from his cuff and put it on the low table.

"Well, I think you'll like it. You can keep this thing if you want, how to use it? It's up to you whether you use it or not! Alright, I'll go first. ”

As when he came, Lin did not salute, stood up and walked outside.

Qin Xun didn't go to pick up the notebook on the short table, but looked sideways at the Lin family, who seemed to be dashing, but actually didn't walk fast.

"Take care." What Qin Xun wanted to say, he swallowed it after all.

Lin's footsteps paused, she turned around, and made a righteous salute to Qin Coward: "Qin Co., you have to be good, you have to live well, if you can, please don't forget me!" ”

Qin Qian's eyes were a little sour, and he nodded in response. And he said, "Do you need me to help you get out of that man?" Leave him and go to a place where no one knows you, and start over. ”

Lin shook his head with a smile, turned around and straightened his back and left.

Qin Xun sat quietly, motionless, and didn't even look through the book on the table.

Qing Cang and Qing Gu walked out from behind the screen, Qin Xun came back to his senses when he heard the movement, and reached out to take the book and look through it.

The careless gaze gradually became stern, and finally even more complicated.

Qing Cang and Qing Gu knew that their wife was in a bad mood, so they didn't dare to make a sound to annoy Qin Xun.

Qin Xun had a hand-copied account book from the Lin family, and it was the private account of the county magistrate, which happened to be somewhat similar to the one in Qin Xun's hand.

It's just that Qin Xun has the accounts of an underground gambling house in Fushui Town, and the amount is not large.

And the book in Qin Xun's hand is a large amount of accounts in and out of the past two years.

The reason why it is very thin is because this is not a running account book, but the account book of the underground gambling houses in the county seat of Qijiang County and several towns under its jurisdiction.

And the flow of these silvers is only a symbol, Qin Xun looked at the symbol described by the Lin family for a while.

Qing Cang passed by, and suddenly said more: "Is this a thank you?" ”

Qin Xun raised his head and saw Qing Cang looking at the symbol.

"Why do you think it's a thank you?" Qin Coriander is literate, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it.

But Qingzong didn't know how to write, but she learned Braille with Lao Xiu in the past two years, but she fished for three days and dried the net for two days, and she didn't recognize many words.

In other words, when she writes, she either loses a horizontal or loses a hand, and some places are still strange.

But this complex symbol in her eyes is the word thank you she has learned.

So, she said the same.

Under her guidance, Qin Xun even felt like a thank you.

What does this Xie mean? Qin Xun's heart trembled a little, and the hand holding the book couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Could it be that "Xie"?

Qingcang thought that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly asked, "Madam, but the slave maid made his wife unhappy by talking nonsense?" ”

Qinggu was also busy coming over to help Qingzong speak.

Qin Co., Ltd., who came back to his senses, waved his hand and smiled at Qing Cang: "You didn't do anything wrong, but helped me." ”

After listening to Qin Xun's words, Qing Cang and Qing Gu were relieved.

"Qing Zong!" Qin Xun put away the notebook and raised his head to look at Qing Cang, who was a little surprised: "When this matter is over, I will take the time to propose marriage to Qiao San in person and ask him if he would like to marry you as his wife?" ”
