Chapter 152 Breeze
This year is a very important year for Lin Jinrong and Lin Jia Sanfang, Tao Jia and Lin Shiquan.
In spring, Dow bought a large area of sloping land, planted saplings, and asked someone to take care of it: 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 Qingzhou follow the trend, a very small number of people sneer, and the vast majority of people hold a wait-and-see attitude. There are many people who follow the trend, and there is a figure of Mr. Lu.
At the summer solstice, Lin Shiquan and the Tao family, together with a merchant surnamed Mei, sent a batch of winter wheat to the northern border. At that time, the grain worth 2,000 yuan was falsely estimated to be 100 thousand yuan. With the tea, they went to the thirteen mountains of Huainan to get the tea and transported back to Tai This time, it is not a secret, nor is it the smartest person to predict it first, but Lin Shiquan, who is keen to soak in the tea restaurant hotel, is well-informed. Then with the enthusiasm of young people, he dares to say and dare to do, is not afraid of hardship, can endure hardship, and then Lin Jinrong came forward to coordinate
The three families in Pingzhou are flat, and the rest of the Lin family have no thieves, so they can only drool: the Wu family has just been hit by Wu Xiang's examination incident, and those who have no master in the family automatically give up: the Lu family does not know the reason, hold a wait-and-see attitude and never
In autumn, under the name of the Tao family, a grocery store was added to the shop run by Lin Shiquan. Tie Erniu, who had been following Lin Shiquan, was promoted to be the squatter of the grocery store because he was conscientious and responsible. When no one noticed, Tao Fengtang went to the south of the Yangtze River to open a shop.
Tao Shunqin sat in the rear and sent high-quality and cheap incense, fur and other things to the shops in the south of the Yangtze River. Tao Fengtang also sent the tea, silk and embroidery in the south of the Yangtze River to Lin Shiquan and the Tao family in Qingzhou.
Winter solstice, after a whole year, the canal dam placed by the Zhujiang River has begun to take shape, and it is expected that the Tianhe River will be released to the field in April next year.
The situation is very good.
When Lamei was opened, Lin Jin looked at the account book in front of her with his eyebrows, and was very satisfied with her achievements in the past year. What's not to mention that the more money in her hand makes her feel more down-to-earth and satisfied than ever before, she said that she successfully helped Tao Fengtang, and then said that Tao Shunqin went to the south of the Yangtze River to open a business, which was a great success enough for people to sleep at night until dawn.
It is also in this season of fragrant plum blossoms, a rumor quickly blew all over Pingzhou like a breeze. At the beginning, some people said that the Lin family's third house and the Tao family's recent fortune all depended on Lin Shiquan. If they made so much money, it was not worth giving it to him for him: But soon someone said that in fact, they all guessed wrong. Lin Shiquan was just the big manager of the Lin family's third house,
There has never been a shortage of rumors or curiosity in the world. They just want to inquire about people's privacy, or simply have no purpose, just for the existence of this type of people who like to listen and talk. After the rumors spread, everyone suddenly realized that the person who had been hiding behind to make suggestions was not Mrs. Lin Santao, who had been grumpy and could not be a man in the early years: It's not Tao Shunqin, who had been low-key and stable in the early years, although he was rich and famous all the time: It was not Poor young Lin Shiquan. It's the fourth girl of the Lin family.
So the curious people had an infinite interest and infinite conjecture about this girl Lin Si, who was raised in a boudoir, but was so powerful. Countless versions have been circulated in the world. I don't know that Miss Lin's boudoir name doesn't matter. The title of Miss Lin Si is enough to be often chewed repeatedly. The rumor spread so quickly that Mr. Lin, Lin Shiquan and others were caught off guard after knowing it.
When the rumor spread to the Lin family, Lin Jinrong was sitting calmly in front of the embroidery rack under the window, embroidering her dowry with his own hands in the warm winter sun. The pattern of mandarin duck playing in the water on the big red satin is lively and bright. She doesn't have any superfluous feeling, but she just tries her best to complete a perfect embroidery. Because for a long time after that, she had to rely on it to decorate the face of this brother's pattern, so as to tell others what a dexterous and virtuous woman she is.
Litchi looked at Lin Jinrong's quiet and soft side face and dexterous movements. The words had reached her mouth and swallowed again. She really couldn't bear to tell Lin Jinrong what happened outside. But any girl with a strong face knows that she has been repeatedly rumored outside, but I'm afraid she will die of shame and anger. Litchi was in infinite embarrassment. After changing three cups of hot tea and a pot of charcoal for Lin Jinrong, she still couldn't say anything, and there was no way for her to replace her. Mother Gui had already cried so much that her eyes were swollen into a crack. What else can she expect?
Lin Jinrong said, "Lychee, you can tell me or someone else will tell me, you can choose.
" From the time Litchi entered the door, she had already felt Litchi's dodging eyes and hesitation to stop talking. It won't be a good thing. She knows this very well, but no matter how bad it is, can it be worse than what she is about to face? No.
Of course, Litchi chose to let her say it to Lin Jinrong: "I don't know who killed a thousand knives, talking nonsense outside..." Litchi said very carefully, tried to pick up beautiful words, and even prepared to stop talking and comfort Lin Jinrong at any time, but Lin Jinrong has been holding a cup of tea and looking at the , listened quietly, and didn't even say a word in the middle, as if listening to other people's stories.
After Litchi gritted his teeth and said in one breath, he didn't say a faint sentence: "What does the family say? Did your friend cry?"
How can I not cry? For people like them, sometimes a rumor is likely to ruin a marriage and a lifetime. Dow had no choice, otherwise he would have the heart to split the person who chewed his tongue. Litchi sighed, "The old lady called his wife away. Girl, you have to think about it..."
, "I can think about it, and my wife will also think about Yi. Such rumors will stop after a while. Lin Jinrong is very calm. In the past, she would have been unthinkable, but now it is not necessarily. It's just that the daughter of a scholarly family can do business and has been passed on her name several times. It's not that she has done something vulgar and ugly.
First, she did not show up. At most, she gave Tao Shi, Tao Shunqin and others several ideas that led to everyone to make a fortune: Second, she was in charge of the account management shop, and her family knew that no one said anything wrong. At this time, she has been found out to make articles, just because she has not yet left the cabinet, and there are many taboos. If she is a married woman, it is still a great thing to be good at managing dowry.
What she has done in the past few years has basically been done smoothly. What is she not satisfied with? If you gain something, you will lose something. If you want to get it, you should also be contented. However, it's really funny to say. At first, she carefully hid it. In fact, she took great risks to exchange gold and silver, buy saline land, buy grain into the middle, and buy and sell fragrant medicine. No one stared at her. Everyone spontaneously attributed the credit to Tao Shunqin: In the past two years, she has been down- When he moved forward steadily step by step, it attracted people's eyes. There are really a lot of things in the world that she can't figure out.
"Girl, old master, please go to listen to Taoju immediately." Cherry came in with infinite concern to send a message, and his voice was so low that he could hardly hear: "The Lu family is here."
The Lu family sent people to the door so quickly at this time, and Mr. Lin then asked people to call Lin Jinrong over. You can guess what it is for without thinking about it. Litchi's face turned white, and he shook his lips and held Lin Jinrong's hand worriedly. He wanted to say a few words of relief, but he couldn't say a complete sentence: "Girl..." You...servant..."
"Don't be afraid, what's there to be afraid of?" There was a strange and gentle soothing 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. Soon Lin Jinrong finished wearing it, and she even looked in the mirror before going out.
Along the way, the eyes of the maids and women I met were flashing, with sympathy, indifference, and all kinds of happiness. Lin Jinrong felt that she had never been so calm at this moment in her life. She could even calmly analyze everyone's expressions and eyes when greeting her, what kind of thoughts they represent, whether they like her, why they don't like her, and who are behind them.
At this moment, the road of listening to Taoju is too close for lychee and cherry, but for Lin Jinrong, it is too far away. She couldn't wait to walk to Ting Taoju in three or two steps to listen to what the people who rushed to the Lu family said. If it hadn't been for the fact that she didn't want people to think she was panicked and afraid of losing this marriage, she would have been eager to go quickly.
No matter how far the road is, there is always a time to walk, and no matter how close the road is, there is also a distance.
Lin Jinrong finally saw the gate of Ting Taoju.
In the yard of Tingtaoju, there is an independent man in a white kiswear shirt, tied with a webbing, and a straight figure. Hearing the sound, he slowly turned his head, and his dark eyes were straight into Lin Jinrong's eyes.
It turns out that he is the one who came so soon! It's really fast. He came back from Mr. Zhu's house, 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 such a thing?
Lin Jinrong casually raised the corners of his lips indifferently to show a smile, and then gently walked past him like a breeze, steadily stepped on the Ruyi stack, stopped in front of Master Lin's door, and knocked on the door calmly.
